Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.


     This Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D is being filed
by the Reporting Persons solely to report a material
decrease in the percentage of the Issuer's Common Stock
that is beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons
arising from the sale of an aggregate of 100,000 shares
of the Issuer's Common Stock in market transactions from
May 7 through May 10, 1996.  The sales of shares
described by this Amendment No. 3 have been made for
accounts managed by KM&Co. 

     The Reporting Persons may from time to time cause
investment accounts advised by KM&Co. to purchase and/or
sell the Issuer's Common Stock in market or other
transactions, depending upon market conditions; changes
or perceived changes in the Issuer's financial condition,
results of operations or future prospects; the
availability of funds in portfolios managed by the
Reporting Persons; the liquidity needs of investment
portfolios managed by KM&Co.; and other factors.  Other
than the possibility of such future purchases and/or
sales, none of the Reporting Persons has any present
plans or proposals with respect to the Issuer that relate
to or could result in the occurrence of any of the
following events:

     a.   The acquisition by any person of additional
          securities of the Issuer, or the disposition
          of securities of the Issuer;

<PAGE> 6
     b.   An extraordinary corporate transaction, such
          as a merger, reorganization or liquidation,
          involving the Issuer or any of its
          subsidiaries;
     c.   A sale or transfer of a material amount of
          assets of the Issuer or any of its
          subsidiaries;
     d.   Any change in the present board of directors
          or management or the Issuer, including any
          plans or proposals to change the number or
          term of directors to fill any existing
          vacancies on the board;
     e.   Any material change in the present
          capitalization or dividend policy of the
          Issuer;
     f.   Any other material change in the Issuer's
          business or corporate structure;
     g.   Changes in the Issuer's charter, bylaws or
          instruments corresponding thereto or other
          actions which may impede the acquisition of
          control of the Issuer by any person;
     h.   Causing a class of securities of the Issuer to
          be delisted from a national securities
          exchange or to cease to be authorized to be
          quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of
          a registered national securities association;
     i.   A class of equity securities of the Issuer
          becoming eligible for termination of 

          <PAGE> 7
          registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of
          the Exchange Act; or
     j.   Any action similar to any of those enumerated
          above.
     
Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

     a.   The Group's beneficial ownership of the
          Issuer's Common Stock as of the date of this
          Statement is set forth in the table below. 
          The percentages are based on the number of
          shares of Common Stock outstanding
          (10,023,949) as reported by the Issuer in its
          most recently available filing, minus the
          number of shares (2,850,912) designated by the
          Issuer as "non-voting."

     *The beneficial ownership of Mr. Kirr and Mr.
Summerville of the 440,000 shares beneficially owned by
KM&Co. derives from their control of KM&Co.  The 440,000
shares beneficially owned by each of them are the same
440,000 shares that are beneficially owned by KM&Co.

     (b)  The Group has sole power to vote, or to direct
          the vote, and sole power to dispose, or to
          direct the disposition of, all of the Common
          Stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by the
          Group.  Because KM&Co. is controlled by Mr.
          Kirr and Mr. Summerville, all three of such
          Reporting Persons may be deemed, among
          themselves, to share all voting and
          dispositive power over the shares beneficially
          owned by the Group.

     (c)  There have been no transactions in the
          Issuer's Common Stock by the Group during the
          past 60 days except for the previously
          reported sale of an aggregate of 100,000
          shares by KM&Co. on April 29, 1996, at $4.00
          per share in open market transactions, and the
          following additional open market transactions:

     (d)  Mr. Kirr and Mr. Summerville have indirect

<PAGE> 9
          sale proceeds of the Common Stock of the
          Issuer held in certain of the accounts managed
          by KM&Co., but such pecuniary interests do not
          relate to more than 5% of the outstanding
          Common Stock of the Issuer (other than Non-
          voting Common Stock).  The remaining pecuniary
          interest in dividends and sale proceeds is
          owned by the various client accounts managed
          by KM&Co., none of which individually has an
          interest relating to more than 5% of the
          Common Stock (other than the Non-voting Common
          Stock).
