     This constitutes  Amendment No. 8 ("Amendment No. 8") to Schedule 13D filed
by  the  undersigned  on  March  18,  1995  (the  "Schedule  13D").   Except  as
specifically  amended by this  Amendment  No. 8, the  Schedule  13D, as amended,
remains in full force and effect.  Defined  terms  herein shall have the meaning
specified in the Schedule 13D, except as otherwise provided herein.

     Item 3 is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

ITEM 3.   SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION.

     The aggregate  purchase price of the 1,702,819 Shares of Common Stock owned
by Steel  Partners II is  $1,771,807.  The Shares of Common Stock owned by Steel
Partners II were acquired with partnership funds.

     The  aggregate  purchase  price  of the  179,500  Shares  of  Common  Stock
beneficially owned by Services is $271,848. Such Shares were acquired with funds
it  manages  for a foreign  investment  company  (the  "Fund").  Pursuant  to an
agreement  (the  "Management  Agreement")  with  the  Fund,  Services  has  been
appointed to manage,  on a  discretionary  basis,  certain of the Fund's assets,
which are  maintained in a brokerage  account in the Fund's name. The Management
Agreement may be terminated by either party at any time. Therefore,  pursuant to
Rule  13d-3(d)(1)(C),  the Fund may also be deemed the  beneficial  owner of the
Shares reported to be beneficially owned by Services.

     Item 5 is amended to read in its entirety as follows:

ITEM 5.   INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     (a) The aggregate  percentage of Shares of Common Stock  reported  owned by
each person named herein is based upon 12,136,560 Shares  outstanding,  which is
the  total  number of Shares of Common  Stock  outstanding  as  reported  in the
Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 1995.

As of the close of business on July 21, 1995:

     Steel  Partners II  beneficially  owns  1,702,819  Shares of Common  Stock,
constituting  approximately  14.0%  of  the  Shares  outstanding;  and  Services
beneficially owns 179,500 Shares,  constituting approximately 1.5% of the Shares
outstanding.   Collectively,   the  Reporting   Persons  own  1,882,319  Shares,
constituting  approximately 15.5% of the Issuer's Common Stock outstanding.  Mr.
Lichtenstein and Mr. Butler may be deemed to beneficially own 1,882,319  Shares,
representing  approximately  15.5% of the Issuer's Common Stock outstanding,  by
virtue of their authority to vote and dispose of the 1,702,819 Shares owned by


<PAGE>


     Steel Partners II and the 179,500  Shares managed by Services.  All of such
Shares were acquired in open-market transactions.

     (b) By virtue of their positions with Steel Partners II and Services,  each
of Messrs. Lichtenstein and Butler has the sole power to vote and dispose of the
Shares reported in this Schedule 13D.

     (c) Schedule A annexed hereto lists all transactions in the Issuer's Common
Stock since the filing of the  previous  amendment  to this  Schedule 13D by the
Reporting Persons.

     (d) Other  than the Fund,  no person  other than the  Reporting  Persons is
known to have the  right to  receive,  or the  power to direct  the  receipt  of
dividends  from, or to the proceeds  from, the sale of such Shares of the Common
Stock.

     (e) Not applicable.
