Earnings (loss) per share of
  common stock:
    Primary                           $  1.74  $  (1.41)   $  1.91  $  (1.08)

Primary earnings per share has been computed by dividing net earnings, after 
deduction of preferred stock dividends, by the weighted average number of 
shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Common stock options 
and other common stock equivalents have not entered into the primary earnings 
per share computations since their effect is not significant.

Fully diluted earnings per share has been computed assuming issuance of all 
shares for stock options deemed to be common stock equivalents, using the 
treasury stock method.
