Item 4.		Ownership.

		(a)	Amount Beneficially Owned:	3,789,236 shares

		(b)	Percent of Class:				5.91%

		(c)	Number of shares as to which such person has:

			(i)	Sole power to vote or to direct the vote		0

The number of shares reported above includes 3,788,940 shares of Class B
Common Stock of the Issuer which are immediately convertible into an equal
number of shares of Class A Common Stock at the option of the holder.  In
addition, if shares of Class B Common Stock are transferred to any persons
other than a "Permitted Transferee" (as defined in the Issuer's Second
Restated Articles of Incorporation), such shares are automatically converted
on a share-for-share basis into shares of Class A Common Stock.  Shares of
Class B Common Stock of the Issuer have the same attributes as shares of
Class A Common Stock of the Issuer except that each share of Class B Common
Stock entitles the holder thereof to ten votes on all matters upon which
Shareholders have a right to vote and each share of Class A Common Stock
entitles the holder thereof to one vote on such matters.  If all the
outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer were converted into
shares of Class A Common Stock, Mr. Idema would be deemed to be the
beneficial owner of 2.6% of the Class A Common Stock.
