Item 3.  Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

         As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person is deemed to
         beneficially own 847,400 Shares.  All 847,400 Shares are
         held by either the Partnership, the International Fund
         or the managed accounts.  All the Shares were purchased


                                4





         in open market transactions.  The Shares were purchased
         for an aggregate purchase price of $5,089,520.80.  The
         funds for the purchase of the Shares held in the
         Partnership, the International Fund or the managed
         accounts have come from the working capital of the
         Partnership, the International Fund or the managed
         accounts.  The working capital of these entities
         includes the proceeds of margin loans entered into in
         the ordinary course of business with Bear, Stearns &
         Co., Inc., such loans being secured by the securities
         owned by them. 

Item 4.  Purpose of Transactions

         The Shares deemed to be beneficially owned by the
         Reporting Person were acquired for, and are being held
         for, investment purposes.  The Reporting Person has 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.  The Reporting Person, on
         behalf of the above mentioned entities, reserves the
         right to purchase additional Shares or to dispose of the
         Shares in the open market, in privately negotiated
         transactions or in any other lawful manner in the future
         and to take whatever action with respect to each of such
         entities' holdings of the Shares he deems to be in the
         best interests of such entities.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of Issuer

         As of the date hereof, the Reporting Person is deemed to
         be the beneficial owner of 847,400 Shares.  Based on the
         Issuer's filing on Form 10-Q on May 14, 1997, as of
         May 14, 1997 there were 15,170,836 Shares outstanding.
         Therefore, the Reporting Person may be deemed to
         beneficially own 5.59% of the outstanding Shares.  None
         of the Partnership, the International Fund or any of the
         managed accounts by itself owns greater than 5% of the
         outstanding Shares.  The Reporting Person has the power
         to vote, direct the vote, dispose of or direct the
         disposition of all the Shares that he is deemed to
         beneficially own.  All transactions in the Shares
