                          SCHEDULE 13D
                        (Amendment No. 5)


     NOTE:  For convenience, Abdullatif Ali Alissa Est. (the
"Establishment"), Mr. Alissa, General Investors Limited ("GIL")
and Financial Investors Limited ("FIL") are sometimes
collectively referred to as the "Filing Persons."  All
capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 4 and not defined
herein shall have the same meaning as in the statement of Saad A.
Alissa on Schedule 13D dated August 31, 1994, as amended.  Except
as expressly stated below, there have been no material changes in
the information contained in such Schedule 13D, as amended.

Item 4.   Purpose of Transaction

     On Thursday, August 31, 1995, in Lucerne, Switzerland, Mr.
Alissa met with William H. Mallender, Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company, and Alex Stamatakis, a
director of the Company, to discuss enhancing shareholder value
for the benefit of all shareholders of the Company.  In this
connection, Mr. Alissa proposed that the Company: sell non-core
businesses; not renew the poison pill in 1996 or submit the
question of renewal to a shareholder vote; and nominate and/or
elect his designee as a director.  Messrs. Mallender and
Stamatakis indicated that the proposals would be considered.  No
agreement or understanding was reached.

Item 5.   Interest in Securities of the Issuer

     As of September 8, 1995, the Filing Persons beneficially
owned an aggregate of 931,200 shares of the Company's common
stock or about 9.27% of the 10,047,000 outstanding shares.  The
aggregate beneficial ownership includes 678,100 shares owned by
Mr. Alissa indirectly through FIL, which is wholly owned by the
Establishment, and 253,100 shares owned by Mr. Alissa indirectly
through GIL.

     [The number of shares previously reported by Mr. Alissa as
beneficially owned indirectly through FIL, which is owned by the
Establishment, was 680,100, which is incorrect due to an
immaterial arithmatic error of 2,000 shares.  The correct number
is 678,100 shares, as reported herein.]

all transactions effected by and on behalf of the Filing Persons
