ITEM 5.  OTHER EVENTS

On October 15, 1998, the Registrant filed a request with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "Commission") seeking confirmation from the Staff
that it would not recommend any enforcement action to the Commission if, in
lieu of filing the quarterly and annual reports on Forms 10-Q and 10-K,
respectively, that the Registrant would otherwise be required to file while
it is in reorganization proceedings pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy
Code, the Registrant implements modified reporting procedures. Such modified
reporting procedures consist of filing each of the Registrant's Monthly
Operating Reports under cover of Form 8-K within 15 days after such Monthly
Operating Report is due to be filed with the Bankruptcy Court and U.S.
Trustee's Office. The Commission has not yet issued its decision on the
Registrant's request; however, pending such decision, the Registrant is
implementing the proposed modified reporting procedures. Accordingly, the
Registrant's Monthly Operating Report, presenting certain financial
information of the Registrant and its subsidiaries for the period ended
October 31, 1999, is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated
herein by reference. The attached Monthly Operating Report was filed with the
Bankruptcy Court and the U.S. Trustee's Office on November 19, 1999.
