their respective dates.  The Schedule 13D is amended only to the extent set
forth below:

 Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

    a. The aggregate number of shares of the Issuer's Common Stock
 beneficially owned by VP as of April 18, 2000 was 800,218 representing

 the Issuer with the Securities and Exchange Commission.  The Account

    b. VP has the sole power to vote and the sole power to dispose of the
 shares of Common Stock owned by it through its general partner, E&P, and
 E&P acts solely through its general partner, Mr. Ewing.  Accordingly, each
 of E&P and Mr. Ewing may be deemed to have sole voting and dispositive
 power with respect to the shares of Issuer's Common Stock owned by VP.

 Stock owned by the Account, the Investment Account and the IRA.

    c. The following table sets forth the date of sale, number of shares

       April 18, 2000              133,973                   $19.875



    d. No person or entity other than VP has the right to receive, or the
 power to direct the receipt of, dividends from, or the proceeds from the
 sale of, the shares of the Issuer's Common Stock beneficially owned by VP.

guarantees of profits, division of profits or loss, the giving or withholding
of proxies or pledge or otherwise subject to a contingency the occurrence of
which would give another person voting or investment power over the Common
