To the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, none of the entities or 
persons identified in this Item 2 has, during the past five years, been 
convicted of any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar 
misdemeanors), nor been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or 
administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such 
proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining 
future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, 
federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such 
laws.

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

The source of funds for the purchases of securities was the working capital of 
the Blum Reporting Persons and the Weintraub Reporting Persons.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction
- -------------------------------

The Reporting Persons previously acquired the securities of the Issuer in the 
ordinary course of their business, which is an investment business.



CUSIP NO. 49460W-01-0            SCHEDULE 13D                    Page 18 of 22

In the ordinary course of that business, the Blum Reporting Persons may 
discuss from time to time with representatives of the Issuer and with selected 
shareholders of the Issuer ideas that the Blum Reporting Persons believe might 
enhance shareholder value, including ideas that might, if effected, result in 
any of the following: the acquisition by persons of additional securities of 
the Issuer, an extraordinary corporate transaction involving the Issuer, 
and/or changes in the board of directors or management of the Issuer.  
Depending upon market conditions and other factors, the Blum Reporting Persons 
may acquire additional securities of the Issuer in the open market, in 
privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.  Alternatively, depending upon 
market conditions or other factors, the Blum Reporting Persons may, from time 
to time, dispose of some or all of the securities of the Issuer that they own 
beneficially.

Other than as set forth in this statement, the Blum Reporting Persons and the 
Weintraub Reporting Persons do not have any present plans or proposals that 
relate to or would result in any of the consequences listed in paragraphs (a)-
(j) of Schedule 13D, or any agreement regarding such matters, although they 
may in the future take actions that would have such consequences.  

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer
- ---------------------------------------------

(a),(b) According to the Issuer's most recent Form 10-Q, there were 42,442,535 
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of April 30, 1997.  Based 
on such information the following Reporting Persons report the following 
direct holdings and corresponding percentage interests in the Common Stock:

Shares of Common                            Percentage
Name                     Stock Owned          Owned
- -------------------   -------------------   -----------

Stinson                     444,200              1.05%
BK IV                       151,000              0.36%                       
Carpenters Trust          2,176,950              5.13%
UBC                         340,100              0.80%
ICSOPP                      315,700              0.74%
Prism                       252,000              0.59%
                          ---------              -----
Total                     3,679,950              8.67%
                          =========              =====
In addition, because RCBA L.P. has voting and investment power with respect to 
360,300 shares that are legally owned by The Common Fund for the account of 
its Equity Fund ("The Common Fund"), those shares are reported as beneficially 
owned by RCBA L.P.  The Common Fund is principally engaged in the business of 
managing investments for educational institutions.  The principal 
administrative office of The Common Fund is located at 450 Post Road East, 
Westport, Connecticut 06881-0909.  The Common Fund disclaims membership in a 
group with any of the Reporting Persons, and disclaims beneficial ownership of 
any shares held by the Reporting Persons.


CUSIP NO. 49460W-01-0            SCHEDULE 13D                    Page 19 of 22


Voting and investment power with respect to the above shares held by Stinson, 
BK IV, Carpenters Trust, UBC, ICSOPP and The Common Fund are held solely by  
RCBA L.P.  The Blum Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed to be members in 
a group, in which case each Reporting Person would be deemed to have 
beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 3,788,250 shares of the Common Stock, 
which is 8.93% of the outstanding Common Stock.  As the sole general partner 
of RCBA L.P., RCBA Inc. is deemed the beneficial owner of the securities over 
which RCBA L.P. has voting and investment power.  As Chairman, director and a 
substantial shareholder of RCBA Inc., Richard C. Blum might be deemed to be 
the beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by RCBA Inc.  
Although Mr. Blum is joining in this Schedule as a Reporting Person, the 
filing of this Schedule shall not be construed as an admission that he, or any 
of the other shareholders, directors or executive officers of RCBA Inc. is, 
for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities that are 
beneficially owned by RCBA Inc.

Voting and investment power with respect to the above shares held by Prism are 
held solely by WCM.  The Weintraub Reporting Persons therefore may be deemed 
to be members in a group, in which case each Weintraub Reporting Person would 
be deemed to have beneficial ownership of an aggregate of 252,000 shares of 
the Common Stock, which is 0.59% of the outstanding Common Stock.  As the 
managing general partner of WCM, Jerald M. Weintraub might be deemed to be the 
beneficial owner of the securities beneficially owned by WCM.   Although 
Jerald M. Weintraub is joining in this Schedule as a Weintraub Reporting 
Person, the filing of this Schedule shall not be construed as an admission 
that he is, for any purpose, the beneficial owner of any of the securities 
that are beneficially owned by WCM.

Certain of the shares of Common Stock owned by the Reporting Persons were 
acquired in block trades by the Blum Reporting Persons and the Weintraub 
Reporting Persons.  These shares were then divided among the Reporting 
Persons.  Because of the block trades, the Blum Reporting Persons and the 
Weintraub Reporting Persons may be deemed to have constituted a group for 
purposes of acquiring certain shares of the stock.  Thus, the Reporting 
Persons have reported their holdings in aggregate on Lines 8, 10, 11, and 13 
of Schedule 13D, i.e., 4,040,250 shares of Common Stock, which is 9.52% of the 
outstanding Common Stock.  Although each of the Reporting Persons identified 
might be deemed to be part of a group by virtue of the acquisition of the 
shares specified in the first sentence of this paragraph, they all, except as 
disclosed herein, disclaim acting as a group and disclaim "beneficial 
ownership" in the shares of each of such persons (other than himself, herself, 
or itself).  No Blum Reporting Person has the right or power to, and does not 
exercise any control over, the management of policies of any Weintraub 
Reporting Person or exercise investment discretion over any account managed by 
any Weintraub Reporting Person.  Conversely, no Weintraub Reporting Person has 
the right or power to, and does not exercise any control over, the  management 
or policies of any Blum Reporting Person or exercise investment discretion 
over any account managed by any Blum Reporting Person.

 (c), (d) and (e)  Not applicable.

Item 6.  Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships               
with Respect to Securities of the Issuer
- -----------------------------------------------------------------
None of the Reporting Persons or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting 
Persons, the other persons named in Item 2, is a party to any contract, 
arrangement, understanding or relationship with respect to any securities 
of the Issuer, including but not limited to the transfer or voting of any 
securities of the Issuer, finder's fees, joint ventures, loan or option 
arrangements, puts or calls, guarantees of profits, division of profits 
or loss, or the giving or withholding of proxies, except (i) as 
previously disclosed, or (ii) as noted above, RCBA L.P. has the power to 
vote and dispose of the Common Stock held by it for the benefit of the 
Common Fund.
