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 Reporting Persons.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.
The Reporting Persons acquired the Common Stock for investment
purposes. 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
and other factors, the Reporting Persons may, from time to time,
dispose of some or all of the securities of the Issuer that they
beneficially own.
Other than as set forth in this statement, the Reporting Persons
have no present plans or proposals that relate to or would result
in any of the consequences listed in paragraphs (a)-(j) of Item 4
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 information furnished to the Reporting
Persons by the Issuer, there were 23,448,831 shares of Common<PAGE>
CUSIP NO. 440327-10-4 SCHEDULE 13D Page 15 of 19
Stock issued and outstanding as of June 1, 1996. 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
Name Stock Owned Owned
BK IV 54,900 0.2%
Stinson 78,400 0.3%
Carpenters Trust 793,500 3.4%
ICSOPP 119,300 0.5%
_______ ____
Total 1,046,100 4.5%
========= ====
In addition, because RCBA L.P. has voting and investment power
with respect to 150,800 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 1,196,900 shares of the Common Stock, which is 5.1%
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.
In addition, A. James Brodsky, who is identified in Item 2 above,
beneficially owns 1,500 shares of Common Stock, but disclaims
beneficial ownership of any shares held by the Reporting Persons.<PAGE>
CUSIP NO. 440327-10-4 SCHEDULE 13D Page 16 of 19

(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.
