Exhibit 10.38





THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE 
ALAMCO, INC. SAVINGS AND PROTECTION PLAN
(AS AMENDED AND RESTATED EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 1991)


Pursuant to Section 11.1 of the Alamco, Inc. Savings and Protection Plan,
effective as of October 1, 1987, as amended and restated as of January 1, 1991
(the "Plan"), and resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of Alamco, Inc.,
the Plan is hereby amended, effective January 1, 1993 in the following respects:

1.    Section 2.11 is amended by inserting the following paragraph at the end
      thereof:

In addition to other applicable limitations set forth in the Plan, and notwith-
standing any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, for Plan Years begin-
ning on or after January 1, 1994, the annual Compensation of each Employee taken
into account under the Plan shall not exceed the OBRA'93 annual Compensation
limit.  The OBRA'93 annual Compensation limit is $150,000, as adjusted by the
Commissioner for increases in the cost of living in accordance with Section
401(a)(17)(B) of the Code.  The cost-of-living adjustment in effect for a
calendar year applies to any period, not exceeding twelve (12) months, over
which Compensation is determined (determination period) beginning in such
calendar year.  If a determination period consists of fewer than twelve (12)
months, the OBRA'93 annual Compensation limit will be multiplied by a fraction,
the numerator of which is the number of months in the determination period, and
the denominator of which is twelve (12).  For Plan Years beginning on or after
January 1, 1994, any reference in the Plan to the limitation under Section
401(a)(17) of the Code shall mean the OBRA'93 annual Compensation limit set
forth in this provision.

2.    Section 11.1(a) is amended and restated to read in its entirety as fol-
      lows:

            (a)   The Employer reserves the right to amend this Plan by action
of its Board of Directors taken in accordance with the Employer's charter and
By-Laws and applicable law.  All amendments shall be in writing.  Amendments to
the Plan shall be effective as of the date designated in the amendment, or in
the absence of any designation, as of the date of execution.

3.    A new Article XIV is hereby added to read in its entirety as set forth
      below, former Articles XIV and XV are redesignated as Articles XV and XVI,
      respectively, and all section numbers and cross-references are renumbered
      as appropriate:


ARTICLE XIV
CERTAIN SPECIAL DISTRIBUTION RULES

      14.1   Direct Rollovers.  This section applies to distributions made on or
after January 1, 1993.  Certain capitalized terms used in this Section 14.1
shall have the respective meanings set forth in Section 14.2.  Notwithstanding
any provision of the Plan to the contrary that would otherwise limit a Dist-
ributee's election under this section, a Distributee may elect, at the time and
in the manner prescribed by the Plan Administrator, to have any portion of an
Eligible Rollover Distribution paid directly to an Eligible Retirement Plan
specified by the Distributee in a Direct Rollover.

      14.2   Definitions.  

            (a)   "Eligible Rollover Distribution" means any distribution of all
or any portion of the balance to the credit of the Distributee, except that an
Eligible Rollover Distribution does not include:

                  (1)   Any distribution that is one of a series of substan-
tially equal periodic payments (not less frequently than annually) made for the
life (or life expectancy) of the Distributee or the joint lives (or joint life
expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee's designated beneficiary,
or for a specified period of ten years or more;

                  (2)   Any distribution to the extent such distribution is
required under Section 401(a)(9) of the Code; and

                  (3)   The portion of any distribution that is not includible
in gross income (determined without regard to the exclusion for net unrealized
appreciation with respect to employer securities).

            (b)   "Eligible Retirement Plan" means an individual retirement
account described in Section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement
annuity described in Section 408(b) of the Code, an annuity plan described in
Section 403(a) of the Code, or a qualified trust described in Section 401(a) of
the Code, that accepts the Distributee's Eligible Rollover Distribution. 
However, in the case of an Eligible Rollover Distribution to the surviving
spouse, an Eligible Retirement Plan is an individual retirement account or
individual retirement annuity.

            (c)   "Distributee" means an Employee or former Employee.   In
addition, the Employee's or former Employee's surviving spouse and the Employee-
's or former Employee's spouse or former spouse who is the alternate payee under
a qualified domestic relations order, as defined in Section 414(p) of the Code,
are Distributees with regard to the interest of the spouse or former spouse.

            (d)   "Direct Rollover" means a payment by the Plan to the Eligible
Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee.

      14.3  Commencement of Distributions.  If a distribution is one to which
Sections 401(a)(11) and 417 of the Code do not apply, such distribution may
commence less than thirty (30) days after the notice required under Section
1.411(a)-11(c) of the Income Tax Regulations is given, provided that:

            (a)   The Plan Administrator clearly informs the Participant that
the Participant has a right to a period of at least thirty (30) days after
receiving the notice to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a
distribution (and, if applicable, a particular distribution option); and

            (b)   The Participant, after receiving the notice, affirmatively
elects a distribution.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, Alamco, Inc. has caused this Third Amendment to be signed by
its duly authorized officers as of this 9th day of November, 1994.
