is hereby amended by this Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D to

ITEM 2.IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND
       
       Item 2 is hereby supplemented by the addition of the
       following:
       
          This Statement is being filed on behalf of Chilton
Investment Co., Inc., a New York S corporation ("Chilton
Investment").  Chilton Investment is sometimes referred to herein
individually as a "Reporting Person" and collectively with
Richard L. Chilton, Jr. as the "Reporting Persons."

       ITEM 2.   (a), (b), (c)
       
          Chilton Investment is a New York S corporation whose
principal business is to act as investment adviser with respect
to certain managed accounts.  Mr. Chilton is the sole shareholder
and president of Chilton Investment.  The address of the

occupation or employment and business address of the executive
officer and director of Chilton Investment are listed in
Schedule I hereto.
          ITEM 2.   (d), (e)
          During the last five years, Neither Chilton Investment
nor, to the best knowledge of Chilton Investment, any person
identified in Schedule I has (i) been convicted in a criminal
proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors)
or (ii) been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or
administrative body of competent jurisdiction which resulted in a

          ITEM 2.   (f)

ITEM 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION
       
       Item 3 is hereby supplemented by the addition of the
       following:
       
          As of the date hereof, Chilton Investment has acquired
480 shares of Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of
$2,068.80.  The funds for the acquisition of the Shares by
Chilton Investment came from funds of the holders of certain
managed accounts (the "Managed Accounts").
          As of the date hereof, Mr. Chilton is deemed to
beneficially own 257,520 Shares.  All 257,520 Shares beneficially
owned by Mr. Chilton are held by the Partnerships or by managed
accounts over which the Reporting Person has investment
discretion.  The Shares were purchased in open market
transactions at an aggregate cost of $1,109,911.20.
          The funds for the purchase of the Shares held in the
Partnerships and the managed accounts over which the Reporting
Persons has investment discretion have come from the
Partnerships' working capital or each account's own funds or from
margin loans entered into in the ordinary course of business.
          
ITEM 4.PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION
       
       Item 4 is hereby supplemented by the addition of the
       following:
       
          The Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons
were acquired for, and are being held for, investment purposes.
The Reporting Persons have no plan or proposal which relates to, or
would result in, any of the actions enumerated in Item 4 of the
instructions to Schedule 13D.
          
ITEM 5.INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER
       
       Item 5 is hereby supplemented by the addition of the
       following:
       
          (a)  Chilton Investment beneficially owns 480 shares of
Common Stock, representing .02% of the Shares.  Mr. Chilton
beneficially owns 257,520 Shares, representing 10.03% of the
Shares.  (The foregoing calculations are based on 2,567,894.60
Shares issued and outstanding as of August 1, 1997 according to
publicly available filings of the Issuer).
               If the Reporting Persons were deemed to constitute
a group, the 258,000 Shares beneficially owned by the Reporting
Persons would represent 10.05% of the issued and outstanding
Shares as of August 1, 1997.  (The foregoing calculations are
based on the number of Shares then issued and outstanding
according to publicly available filings of the Issuer).
               Each of the Reporting Persons disclaims beneficial
ownership of the Shares owned by the other Reporting Persons or
by any other investor.
               The Reporting Persons have the power to vote,
direct the vote, dispose of or direct the disposition of all the
