Item 4.  Changes in Registrant's Certifying Accountant

(a)(1)      Indication of Registrant's Certifying Accountant of Decision Not to
Stand for Re-election

      (i)   On October 31, 1997, Coopers & Lybrand, LLP, ("C&L"), the
independent auditors of the Registrant, notified the Registrant that C&L
declines to stand for re-election.

      (ii)  The accountants' report of C&L on the financial statements of the
Registrant for the years ended December 31, 1996 and December 31, 1995 did not
contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and was not qualified or
modified as to uncertainty (other than a going concern modification relating to
the report for the year ended December 31, 1995), audit scope, or accounting
principles.

      (iii) C&L's decision not to stand for re-election was not approved or
recommended by the Registrant's Board of Directors, audit committee or similar
committee of the Board of Directors.

      (iv)  During the two years ended December 31, 1996 and the subsequent
period through October 31, 1997, (a) there were no disagreements with C&L on any
matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or
auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to C&L's
satisfaction would have caused C&L to make reference in connection with its
report to the subject matter of the disagreement, and (b) C&L has not advised
the Registrant of any reportable events as defined in paragraphs (1) through (3)
of Regulation S-B Item 304(a)(1)(iv)(B).

(a)(2)      Engagement of New Accountants

      On November 7, 1997, the Registrant engaged the firm of Holyfield 
Associates, P.A. ("Holyfield") as its new independent accountants.  Holyfield 
was not consulted regarding the application of accounting principles to a 
specific completed or contemplated transaction; or the type of audit opinion to
be rendered with regard to the Registrant's financial statements; or any
disagreements or reportable events as such terms are used in Regulation S-B,
Item 304(a)(2).

(a)(3)      Copy of Disclosures.

      C&L has been provided with a copy of the disclosures contained in this
Form 8-K with a request that it furnish to the Registrant a letter addressed to
the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the
Registrant in response to Item 304(a) of Regulation S-B, and, if not, stating
the respects in which it does not agree.  Attached, as an exhibit, is a copy of
a letter from C&L to the Commission stating that it agrees with the statements
in the Form 8-K concerning its firm.
