        The Schedule 13D filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission on July 27, 1998 relating to shares of common stock, no par
value (the "Shares"), of The Interlake Corporation, a Delaware corporation
(the "Issuer"), is amended to furnish the additional information set forth
herein. All capitalized terms contained herein but not otherwise defined
herein shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the previously
filed Schedule 13D.


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

        Investors purchased directly 706,140 Shares not previously reported

for such Shares from its working capital and from borrowings in the
ordinary course of business under a previously existing credit facility
available for general corporate purposes, including purchases of marketable
securities. Such loans bear interest, at the option of the borrower, at the
London interbank offered rate plus 2% per annum , or the prime rate (as
announced by Citibank N.A.) minus 1%. Borrowings under the facility are
secured by a security interest in certain collateral and certain guarantees
by general partners of Investors and other related parties. This facility
was not made available for the specific purpose of acquiring Shares. A copy
of Investors' Demand Loan and Pledge Agreement dated as of March 5, 1997 is
filed as Exhibit 2 to the previously filed Schedule 13D, the complete terms
and provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference.

        Seth M. Hendon purchased directly 14,000 Shares not previously
reported for a total consideration of approximately $54,868.75. Mr. Hendon

consideration of approximately $268,463.36. Mr. Crafts paid for his Shares
from his personal funds.

        (a) As of the close of business on August 28, 1998, the Reporting
Persons owned in the aggregate 2,608,400 Shares, which represent
approximately 11.255% of the 23,175,000 Shares outstanding as reported in
the Issuer's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 28,
1998. In accordance with Rule 13d- 5(b)(1) of the General Rules and
Regulations under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the

        (b) Each of the Reporting Persons has sole power to vote or to
direct the vote and sole power to dispose or to direct the disposition of
Shares of which it has direct beneficial ownership.

        (c) Since the previously filed Schedule 13D, the Reporting Persons
purchased Shares in the manner, in the amounts, on the dates and at the
prices set forth on Schedule I attached hereto and incorporated herein by
reference.

        (d)    Not Applicable.

        (e)    Not Applicable.


     ITEM 6.   CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS

        The Reporting Persons may consult each others on matters relating
to the voting, holding, acquisition and disposition of Shares. The
Reporting Persons also have an oral understanding to pay their respective
pro-rata shares of all out-of-pocket costs and fees incurred by Investors
on behalf of the investor group in connection with their investment in
Shares. Mr. Crafts and Investors have an understanding regarding Mr. Crafts
reimbursing Investors for the carrying costs associated with these Shares
from their date of purchase until their transfer to Mr. Crafts.

         As a result of the foregoing understandings, the Reporting Persons
may be deemed to be a "group" within the meaning of the rules and
regulations promulgated under the Exchange Act. Except as set forth herein,
none of the Reporting Persons has any contracts, arrangements,
understandings or relationships (legal or otherwise) with any person with
respect to any securities of the Issuer, including but not limited to any
contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships concerning the
transfer or voting of such securities, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan
or option arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of
profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
