CUSIP No. 192583102


           This  Amendment  No. 3 to  Schedule  13D is being  filed to  report a
change in the number of Common Shares previously  reported as beneficially owned
by Stephen Katz. Except as set forth in Item 5 below, the information previously
set forth in this Schedule 13D remains unchanged.

ITEM 5.    INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.

           (a) The  number of Common  Shares  beneficially  owned by  Odyssey is
200,000,  comprising 7.3% of the outstanding Common Shares. The number of Common
Shares  beneficially  owned  by Katz is  539,185  (after  giving  effect  to the
withdrawal in May and June 1996 of 13,200 Common Shares,  and on January 2, 1997
of 29,500  Common  Shares,  from the voting  trust for which Katz acts as voting
trustee, and the acquisition by Katz of 10,000 Common Shares on January 2, 1997,
and including  66,665 Common Shares subject to options that will vest and become
exercisable on March 19, 1997, which Common Shares are deemed beneficially owned
by Katz as of January 18,  1997),  comprising  19.1% of the  outstanding  Common
Shares.

           (b) The  number of Common  Shares  as to which  Katz has sole  voting
power is 539,185  (after giving effect to the withdrawal in May and June 1996 of
13,200 Common Shares,  and on January 2, 1997 of 29,500 Common Shares,  from the
voting trust for which Katz acts as voting trustee,  and the acquisition by Katz
of 10,000 Common Shares on January 2, 1997,  and including  66,665 Common Shares
subject to  options  that will vest and become  exercisable  on March 19,  1997,
which  Common  Shares are deemed  beneficially  owned by Katz as of January  18,
1997) of which Odyssey has sole  dispositive  power as to 200,000  Common Shares
and Katz has sole dispositive power as to 76,665 Common Shares.

           (c) (i) On May 21,  1996,  Vogel  removed  and  gave as a gift  1,000
Common  Shares from a nominee  account all of the Common Shares of which were to
have been  included in the voting  trust.  On June 24,  1996 and June 26,  1996,
Vogel  withdrew  2,500 and 9,700 Common  Shares,  respectively,  from the voting
trust (which Common Shares were distributed to Vogel).

                      (ii) On January 2, 1997, the Trust withdrew  29,500 Common
Shares  from the voting  trust  (which  Common  Shares were  distributed  to the
Trust.) On such date, in a private  transaction,  Katz purchased  10,000 of such
Common Shares from the Trust for an aggregate purchase price of $70,000.

                      (iii) On March 19, 1997,  options to purchase an aggregate
of 66,665 Common Shares  (including  Incentive  Stock Options  granted under the
Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan to purchase 16,666 Common Shares at an exercise
price  of $6.00  per  share;  Non-Qualified  Stock  Options  granted  under  the
Company's 1994 Stock Option Plan to purchase 16,666 Common Shares at an exercise
price of $6.00 per share;  and  Non-Qualified  Stock  Options  granted under the
Company's 1996 Stock Option Plan to purchase 33,333 Common Shares at an exercise
price at $6.60 per share) will vest and become exercisable by Katz. Accordingly,
as of January 18, 1997,  Katz may be deemed to  beneficially  own 66,665  Common
Shares subject to such options.

           (d)  Odyssey  currently  has the  right to  receive  and the power to
direct the receipt of dividends from, and the proceeds from the sale of, 200,000
Common Shares as to which Katz exercises sole voting power.  The Trust currently
has the right to receive and the power to direct the receipt of dividends  from,
and the  proceeds  from the sale of,  163,520  Common  Shares  as to which  Katz
exercises  sole voting power.  Vogel  currently has the right to receive and the
power to direct the receipt of dividends  from,  and the proceeds  from the sale
of,

99,000  Common  Shares  as to which  Katz  exercises  sole  voting  power.  Katz
currently  (i)  exercise  sole  voting  power as to,  and (ii) has the  right to
receive and the power to direct the receipt of dividends  from, and the proceeds
from the sale of, 76,665 Common Shares.

           After reasonable  inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief,
I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and
correct.
