ventures, loan or option arrangements, put or calls, guarantees of profits,
division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, naming the
persons with whom such contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships
have been entered into.  Include such information for any of the securities that
are pledged or otherwise subject to a contingency the occurrence of which would
give another person voting power or investment power over such securities except
that disclosure of standard default and similar provisions contained in loan
agreements need not be included.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

ITEM 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

     (a)  State the aggregate number and percentage of the class of securities
          identified pursuant to Item 1 (which may be based on the number of
          securities outstanding as contained in the most recently available
          filing with the Commission by the issuer unless the filing person has
          reason to believe such information is not current) beneficially owned
          (identifying those shares which there is a right to acquire) by each
          person named in Item 2.  The above mentioned information should also
          be furnished with respect to persons who, together with any of the
          persons named in Item 2, comprise a group within the meaning of
          Section 13(d)(3) of the Act;

     (b)  For each person named in response to paragraph (a), indicate the
          number of shares as to which there is sole power to vote or to direct
          the vote, shared power to vote or to direct the vote, sole power to
          dispose or to direct the disposition, or shared power to dispose or to
          direct the disposition.  Provide the applicable information required
          by Item 2 with respect to each person with whom the power to vote or
          to direct the vote or to dispose or direct the disposition is shared;

     (c)  Describe any transactions in the class of securities reported on that
          were effected during the past sixty days or since the most recent
          filing on Schedule 13D (Section 240.13d-191), whichever is less, by
          the persons named in response to paragraph (a).

          INSTRUCTION.  The description of a transaction required by Item 5(c) 
          shall include, but not necessarily be limited to: (1) the identity of 
          the person covered by Item 5(c) who effected the transaction; (2) the 
          date of the transaction; (3) the amount of securities involved; 
          (4) the price per share or unit; and (5) where and how the transaction
          was effected.

     (d)  If any other person is known to have the right to receive or the power
          to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale
          of, such securities, a statement to that effect should be included in
          response to this item and, if such interest relates to more than five
          percent of the class, such person should be identified.  A listing of
          the shareholders of an investment company registered under the
          Investment Company Act of 1940 or the beneficiaries of any employee
          benefit plan, pension fund or endowment fund is not required.

     (e)  If applicable, state the date on which the reporting person ceased to
          be the beneficial owner of more than five percent of the class of
          securities.

          INSTRUCTION.  For computations regarding securities which represent a 
          right to acquire an underlying security, see Rule 13d-3(d)(1) and the 
          note thereto.

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO
SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

     Describe any contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships
(legal or otherwise) among the persons named in Item 2 and between such persons
and any person with respect to any securities of the issuer, including but not
limited to transfer or voting of any of the securities, finder's fees, joint
ventures, loan or option arrangements, put or calls, guarantees of profits,
division of profits or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, naming the
persons with whom such contracts, arrangements, understandings or relationships
have been entered into.  Include such information for any of the securities that
are pledged or otherwise subject to a contingency the occurrence of which would
give another person voting power or investment power over such securities except
that disclosure of standard default and similar provisions contained in loan
agreements need not be included.

ITEM 7.  MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS

     The following shall be filed as exhibits:  copies of written agreements
