Item 1.  Security and Issuer

         The title of the class of equity  securities  to which  this  statement
relates is the  Common  Stock,  par value  $0.01 per share  (the  "Shares"),  of
Medicus Systems Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). The address
of the Company's  principal  executive office is One Rotary Center,  Suite 1111,
Evanston, Illinois, 60201.

Item 2.  Identity and Background

         The persons  filing this  Statement  are Hollybank  Investments,  LP, a
Delaware limited  Partnership ("LP") and Dorsey R. Gardner,  the general partner
of LP ("Gardner").  The business address of both Gardner and LP is One Financial
Center, Suite 1600, Boston,  Massachusetts,  02111. LP was formed on January 14,
1994, and is authorized to conduct any business  which may be legally  conducted
by a limited partnership under the laws of Delaware. As of the date hereof, LP's
sole  business is  securities  investment.  During the last five years,  neither
Gardner nor LP has been convicted in a criminal  proceeding  (excluding  traffic
violations and similar misdemeanors),  nor has either Gardner or LP been a party
to a  civil  proceeding  of a  judicial  or  administrative  body  of  competent
jurisdiction as a result of which Gardner or LP was or is subject to a judgment,
decree  or final  order  enjoining  future  violations  of,  or  prohibiting  or
mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any
violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         This  statement  relates to LP's  February 27, 1997  purchase of 73,378
Shares of Medicus Systems  Corporation at a per share price of $5.925 (including
the $.05/share  commission) on the NASD.  This purchase,  when  aggregated  with
Gardner and LP's previously  purchased  Shares,  gives Gardner deemed beneficial
ownership of 624,003 of the 6,477,173  outstanding  Shares, thus triggering this
reporting requirement.  LP used its working capital to make this and every other
Share purchase, while Gardner has used his personal funds for his purchases.

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

         LP and Gardner have purchased their respective  shares strictly for the
purpose of equity  security  investment.  Neither Gardner nor LP has any present
plans or proposals which would relate to or result in:

         (a) The  acquisition  by any  person of  additional  securities  of the
Company, or the disposition of securities of the Company;

structure;

         (g)  Changes  in  the   Company's   charter,   bylaws  or   instruments
corresponding  thereto or other  actions  which may impede  the  acquisition  of
control of the Company by any person;

         (h) Causing a class of  securities of the Company to be delisted from a
national  securities  exchange or to cease to be  authorized  to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

         (i) A class of equity  securities of the Company becoming  eligible for
termination  of  registration  pursuant to Section  12(g)(4)  of the  Securities
Exchange Act of 1934; or
