                        AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO SCHEDULE 13D
                        -------------------------------

                                        
          The Schedule 13D, as amended, is hereby further amended as set forth
below.  Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings set
forth in the Schedule 13D, as amended.


Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction
         ----------------------

          Item 4 is amended by adding the following:

          As previously reported, the San Francisco FRB advised the Reporting
Person in June 1996 that, in order to obtain relief from the 1992 Commitments
(see Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D and Exhibit 2 thereto), the Reporting
Person would have to file a notice under the Change in Bank Control Act and
receive clearance thereunder from the San Francisco FRB.  The Reporting Person
filed such a notice with the San Francisco FRB and, on November 1, 1996, the San
Francisco FRB cleared the notice and released the Reporting Person from the 1992
Commitments.  In taking this action, the San Francisco FRB relied upon
commitments by the Reporting Person that he would not acquire more than 9.99
percent of the Issuer without the further approval of the Federal Reserve System
and that the Reporting Person and Leshner Financial, Inc. would not exercise any
voting or investment discretion over the shares of the Issuer held by their
clients (although they would be free to advise their clients with respect to
such shares).


Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer
         ------------------------------------

          Item 5 is amended by adding the following:

          The warrant dated December 31, 1992 that is held by the Reporting
Person has been further adjusted by a 5 percent stock dividend declared by the
Board of Directors of the Issuer.  The warrant, as further adjusted, presently
gives the holder the right to purchase 110,250 shares of the Issuer's common
stock at an exercise price of approximately $12.70 per share.


                                   Signature

          After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I
certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and
correct.
