          violation with respect to such laws.

          (f)  SEG is a citizen of the United States of America.

Item 3.   Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

      Prior  to  March  4, 1995, Frank L. Gofrank  was  the  sole
trustee  of  the  Frank L. Gofrank Trust created  under  a  trust
agreement  dated 4/28/93 (the "Trust"), which on  March  4,  1995
owned (and continues to own) 223,854 shares of Common Stock  (the
"Trust  Shares").   Frank  L. Gofrank  died  on  March  4,  1995,
whereupon SEG became one of two successor trustees of the  Trust,
the  other being SEG's sister, Catherine A. Gofrank ("CAG").   At
the  time  she  became a trustee of the Trust,  SEG  individually
owned  39,628  shares of Common Stock (the "Individual  Shares"),
which she had owned for more than 60 days prior to March 4,  1995
and which she continues to own.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction.

      The  purpose of SEG's becoming one of the trustees  of  the
Trust  was to comply with her father's wish (as expressed in  the
trust agreement) that she do so.

      In her capacity as a trustee of the Trust, SEG expects from
time  to  time  to  be  presented with or give  consideration  to
proposals that the Trust acquire or dispose of securities of  the
Issuer, and in her capacity as a member of the Issuer's Board  of
Directors,  SEG  may  from time to time be called  upon  to  give
consideration to proposals that the Issuer engage in transactions
of one or more of the types listed below.  Except as described in
the  preceding sentence, SEG currently has no plans or  proposals
which  relate to or would result in: (a) the acquisition  by  any
person  of additional securities of the Issuer or the disposition
of  securities  of  the  Issuer; (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 of the Issuer, including any  plans  or
proposals  to change the number or term of directors or  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 registration
pursuant  to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange  Act  of
1934; or (j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, SEG intends to remain free to take
such  action, including the making of such proposals with respect
to  the  Issuer or its securities, as SEG may from time  to  time
deem appropriate in light of circumstances which might arise from
time to time.

sole power to dispose or direct the disposition of, 39,628 shares

or  direct  the  disposition of, 223,854 shares of  Common  Stock
