          INTRODUCTION

               The acquisition of 510,900 shares ("Shares") of Common Stock
          of the Issuer was previously reported by the Reporting Persons in
          a Schedule 13D, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange
          Commission on August 5, 1999, as amended by Schedule 13D
          Amendment No. 1, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange
          Commission on November 29, 1999 ("Amendment No. 1").  Since the
          filing of Amendment No. 1, two of the previous Reporting Persons
          (The Cameron Baird Foundation and Bridget B. Baird, Successor
          Trustee) have purchased additional Shares, and two new Reporting
          Persons (Jane D. Baird and First Carolina Investors, Inc.) have
          purchased Shares.  The number of Shares now held by the Reporting
          Persons is 1,409,800 Shares.

               The Cover Pages for the two previous Reporting Persons are
          hereby amended as shown in this Amendment No. 2.  Cover Pages for
          the two new Reporting Persons are hereby added as shown in this
          Amendment No. 2.  Items 2, 3 and 5 are hereby amended as shown in
          this Amendment No. 2.  All other Cover Pages and Items remain
          unchanged from the previous Schedule 13D, as amended.

                    NOTE:  THE EXECUTION AND SUBMISSION OF THIS STATEMENT
                    BY THE REPORTING PERSONS SHALL NOT BE CONSTRUED AS A
                    STATEMENT OR ADMISSION THAT THE REPORTING PERSONS (I)
                    ARE ACTING AS A GROUP IN THE ACQUISITION OF THE
                    SHARES, (II) COLLECTIVELY CONSTITUTE A "PERSON" WITHIN
                    THE MEANING OF SECTION 13(D)(3) OF THE SECURITIES
                    EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR (III)
                    FOR THE PURPOSES OF SECTION 13(D) OF THE ACT, ARE THE
                    BENEFICIAL OWNERS OF ANY SHARES OTHER THAN THE SHARES
                    IN WHICH EACH PERSON IS SPECIFICALLY IDENTIFIED IN
                    THIS STATEMENT TO HAVE A BENEFICIAL INTEREST.


          ITEM 2.   IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND.

          Item 2 is hereby amended to add the following information with
          respect to the two new Reporting Persons:

          (7)       JANE D. BAIRD
                    (a) Jane D. Baird
                    (b) 8877 Jennings Road, Eden, NY  14057
                    (c) homemaker














                    (d) No
                    (e) No
                    (f) U.S.A.

          (8)  FIRST CAROLINA INVESTORS, INC.

               First Carolina Investors, Inc. ("FCI") is executing and
          submitting information in this Schedule 13D with respect to its
          holdings of the Shares of the Issuer because Brent D. Baird,
          Chairman and a director of FCI, and Bruce C. Baird, a director of
          FCI, have beneficial ownership of approximately 22.5% and 13.7%,
          respectively, of the common stock of FCI; Brent D. Baird and
          Bruce C. Baird are brothers and their ownership of FCI common
          stock, when aggregated with the beneficial interests in FCI
          common stock of their spouses, children, parent, siblings, and
          various corporations, trusts and other entities associated with
          the Baird family, aggregates approximately 52.9% of the
          outstanding common stock of FCI.  FCI denies that, with respect
          to the Shares of the Issuer, FCI constitutes a "group" with any
          of the various Baird family persons and entities (collectively,
          "Bairds") or that it has any agreement or understanding with the
          Bairds to act in concert with respect to the acquisition,
          disposition, voting or other matters relating to the Issuer or
          the Shares.  FCI and the Bairds have placed orders to purchase
          the Shares of the Issuer through Brent D. Baird, who is a
          registered securities broker, and they may place future orders to
          purchase or sell the Shares through Mr. Baird, but any decision
          by FCI to purchase or sell the Shares of the Issuer will be made
          independently of any decision made by any of the Bairds with
          respect to any purchase or sale for their respective accounts.
