CUSIP NO. 72813P-10-0            SCHEDULE 13D                    Page 15 of 20

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 Reporting Persons.

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

The Reporting Persons acquired the securities of the Issuer in the ordinary 
course of their business, which is an investment business.  In the ordinary 
course of that business, the Reporting Persons may discuss from time to time 
with representatives of the Issuer and with selected shareholders of the 
Issuer ideas that the 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 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 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 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-K, there were 50,913,804 
shares of Common Stock issued and outstanding as of March 18, 1997.  Based 
on such information, after taking into account the transactions described in 
Item 5(c) below, the following Reporting Persons report the following direct 
holdings and corresponding percentage interests in the Common Stock:

Shares of Common         Percentage

BK IV                       169,000               0.3%

In addition, because RCBA L.P. has voting and investment power with respect to 
281,200 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.

Voting and investment power concerning the above shares are held solely by 
RCBA L.P.  The 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 3,360,500 shares of the Common Stock, which is 
6.6% 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.

(c)  During the last 60 days, the Reporting Persons purchased the following 
shares of Common Stock in the open market:
