Item 4.     Ownership.

            Reference is hereby made to Items 5-9 and 11 of page
two (2) of this Schedule 13G, which Items are incorporated by
reference herein.

            Because Wentworth is a wholly owned subsidiary of LNFG,
it is possible that LNFG may be deemed a beneficial owner of the
Company's shares held by Wentworth by virtue the definition of
"Beneficial Ownership" in Rule 13d-3 under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934.  Although Wentworth and LNFG are reporting
such securities as if they were members of a group, the filing of
this Schedule shall not be construed as an admission by LNFG that
it is a beneficial owner of any securities of the Company held by
Wentworth.

            In addition, it is possible that the individual general
partners, directors, executive officers, members, and/or managers
of Wentworth or LNFG might be deemed the "beneficial owners" of
some or all of the securities to which this Schedule relates in

<PAGE>
<PAGE>
CUSIP 863905105             SCHEDULE 13G                Page 6 of 8


that they might be deemed to share the power to direct the voting
or disposition of such securities.  Neither the filing of this
Schedule nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an
admission that any of such individuals is, for any purpose, the
beneficial owner of any of the securities to which this Schedule
relates, and such beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed.

Item 5.     Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class.

            Not applicable.

Item 6.     Ownership of More Than Five Percent on Behalf of
            Another Person.

            Wentworth is deemed to be the beneficial owner of the
number of securities reflected in Items 5-9 and 11 of page two
(2) of this Schedule 13G pursuant to separate arrangements
whereby Wentworth acts as investment adviser to certain persons.
Each person for whom the reporting person acts as investment
adviser has the right to receive or the power to direct the
receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the
Common Stock purchased or held pursuant to such arrangements.

Item 7.     Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary
            Which Acquired the Security Being Reported on by the
            Parent Holding Company.

            Not applicable.

Item 8.     Identification and Classification of Members of the
            Group.

            Not applicable.

Item 9.     Notice of Dissolution of Group.

            Not applicable.

Item 10.    Certification.

            By signing below, the undersigned certifies that,
to the best of his knowledge and belief, the securities referred
