    The Schedule 13D was initially filed on June 13, 1996
    (collectively, with all amendments thereto, the
    "Schedule 13D") by (i) Magten Asset Management Corp., a
    Delaware corporation ("Magten"), with respect to the shares
    of Common Stock beneficially owned by investment advisory
    clients of Magten, and (ii) Talton R. Embry ("Embry";
    together with Magten, the "Filing Persons").  The
    Schedule 13D is hereby amended by this Amendment No. 5 as
    follows:

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

    Item 5 as reported on Schedule 13D is hereby amended and
    restated in its entirety as follows:

    (a)  Magten has beneficial ownership of an aggregate
         4,607,509 shares of Common Stock of the Company.  Magten
         may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of 32.8% of a
         total of the 14,028,624 shares of Common Stock reported
         by the Company as outstanding as of March 31, 1998.  All
         of these shares of Common Stock are beneficially owned
         by investment advisory clients of Magten (collectively,
         the "Investment Advisory Shares").  Magten has shared
         voting power (with its investment advisory clients and
         Embry) with respect to 3,669,566 of the shares of Common
         Stock owned by these clients and shared dispositive
         power (with its investment advisory clients and Embry)
         with respect to the 4,607,509 shares of Common Stock
         owned by these clients.

         Magten may be deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
         Investment Advisory Shares.  Pursuant to Rule 13d-4
         promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
         Magten hereby declares that the filing of this
         Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an admission that
         it is the beneficial owner of the Investment Advisory
         Shares.

    (b)  Embry, as sole stockholder and a Managing Director of
         Magten, may be deemed to beneficially own all the shares
         of Common Stock beneficially owned by Magten, as
         described in Item 5(a) above.

         Embry, as trustee of four pension trusts for the benefit
         of current and former employees of Magten including
         himself (the "Pension Trusts"), also has sole voting and
         dispositive power with respect to 81,557 shares of
         Common Stock owned by such trusts (collectively, the
         "Pension Trust Shares").




                                6

         Embry, has sole voting and dispositive power with
         respect to 2,612 shares of Common Stock held by his
         minor children (collectively, the "Family Shares").

         The shares described in Item 5(a) as beneficially owned
         by Magten with respect to which Embry may be deemed a
         beneficial owner, together with the additional shares
         described in this Item 5(b) with respect to which Embry
         may also be deemed a beneficial owner, aggregate
         4,691,678 shares of Common Stock and constitute
         approximately 33.4% of the 14,028,624 shares of Common
         Stock disclosed by the Company as outstanding.

         Pursuant to Rule 13d-4, Embry hereby declares that the
         filing of this Schedule 13D shall not be construed as an
         admission that he is the beneficial owner of the
         Investment Advisory Shares, the Pension Trust Shares (to
         the extent such shares exceed his and his wife's pro
         rata interest as beneficiaries of such trusts), the
         Family Shares or the Family Trust Shares.

    (c)  On June 30, 1998, Magten distributed in kind 150,239
         shares of the Company's Common Stock to one of its
         investment advisory clients.

    (d)  The beneficial owners of the Investment Advisory Shares
         have the right to receive and the power to direct the
         receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale
         of such shares.  The following investment advisory
         clients of Magten have such an interest with respect to
         more than five percent of the shares of Common Stock:
         General Motors Employees Domestic Group Pension Trust,
         Bankers Trust as Trustee for the Hughes Master
         Retirement Trust and Los Angeles Fire and Police Pension
         Systems - Fund 2525.  The beneficiaries of the Pension
         Trusts, the Family Trusts, Embry's wife and Embry's
         minor children have the right to receive dividends from
         or proceeds from the sale of the Pension Trust Shares,
         the Family Trust Shares, and the Family Shares,
         respectively.

    (e)  Not applicable.
