PART I. INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE SECTION 10(a) PROSPECTUS

The information required by Part I is included in documents sent or given to 
participants under the 1997 Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan") pursuant to 
Rule 428(b)(1) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities 
Act").


PART II. INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT

Item 3.  Incorporation of Certain Documents by Reference

The Registrant is subject to the informational and reporting requirements of 
Sections 13(a), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as 
amended (the "Exchange Act"), and in accordance therewith files reports, 
proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (the "Commission").  The following documents, which are on file 
with the Commission, are incorporated in this Registration Statement by 
reference:

(l)	The Registrant's latest annual report filed pursuant to Sections l3(a) or 
15(d) of the Exchange Act, or the latest prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 
424(b) under the Securities Act that contains audited financial statements for 
the Registrant's latest fiscal year for which such statements have been filed.

(2)	All other reports filed pursuant to Sections l3(a) or l5(d) of the 
Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the document referred 
to in (1) above.

(3)	The description of the common stock of the Registrant, $.03 1/3 par value 
per share, contained in a Registration Statement filed under the Exchange Act, 
including any amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such 
description.

All documents subsequently filed by the Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 
13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act prior to the filing of a post-effective 
amendment which indicates that all shares of common stock offered hereby have 
been sold or which deregisters all shares of common stock then remaining 
unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference herein and to be part 
hereof from the date of the filing of such documents.  Any statement contained 
in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein 
shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration 
Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other 
subsequently filed document which also is or is deemed to be incorporated by 
reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.  Any statement so 
modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or 
superseded, to constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

Item 4.  Description of Securities

Not applicable.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel

The legality of the Common Stock being offered hereby will be passed upon for 
the Registrant by Hale and Dorr LLP, Boston, Massachusetts.  As of the date 
hereof, partners of Hale and Dorr LLP own approximately 187,500 shares of 
Common Stock of the Registrant.

Item 6.  Indemnification

Under Article Sixth of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of Incorporation 
and Article Fifth of the Registrant's By-Laws, each person who is a director 
or officer of the Registrant shall be indemnified by the Registrant to the 
full extent permitted by Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of 
Delaware ("Section 145").

Section l45 provides a detailed statutory framework covering indemnification 
of directors and officers of liabilities and expenses arising out of legal 
proceedings brought against them by reason of their status or service as 
directors or officers.  This section provides that a director or officer of a 
corporation (i) shall be indemnified by the corporation for all expenses of 
such legal proceedings when he is successful on the merits, (ii) may be 
indemnified by the corporation for the expenses, judgments, fines and amounts 
paid in settlement of such proceedings (other than a derivative suit), even 
if he is not successful on the merits, if he acted in good faith and in a 
manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests 
of the corporation (and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no 
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful), and (iii) may be 
indemnified by the corporation for expenses of a derivative suit (a suit by a 
shareholder alleging a breach by a director or officer of a duty owed to the 
corporation), even if he is not successful on the merits, if he acted in 
good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed 
to the best interests of the corporation.  No indemnification may be made 
under clause (iii) above, however, if the director or officer is adjudged 
liable for negligence or misconduct in the performance of his duties to the 
corporation, unless a court determines that, despite such adjudication and 
in view of all of the circumstances, he is entitled to indemnification.  The 
indemnification described in clauses (ii) and (iii) above may be made only 
upon a determination that indemnification is proper because the applicable 
standard of conduct has been met.  Such a determination may be made by a 
majority of a quorum of disinterested directors, independent legal counsel 
or the stockholders.  The board of directors may authorize advancing 
litigation expenses to a director or officer upon receipt of an undertaking 
by such director or officer to repay such expenses if it is ultimately 
determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified for them.

The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its 
directors which supplement or clarify the statutory indemnity provisions of 
Section l45 in the following respects: (i) the presumption that the director 
or officer met the applicable standard of conduct is established, (ii) the 
advancement of litigation expenses is provided upon request if the director 
or officer agrees to repay them if it is ultimately determined that he is 
not entitled to indemnification for them, (iii) indemnity is explicitly 
provided for settlements of derivative actions, (iv) the director or officer 
is permitted to petition a court to determine whether his actions met the 
standard required, and (v) partial indemnification is permitted in the 
event that the director or officer is not entitled to full indemnification.

As permitted by Section l45, the Registrant has purchased a general liability 
insurance policy which covers certain liabilities of directors and officers 
of the Registrant arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their 
capacity as directors or officers and for which they are not indemnified by 
the Registrant.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed

Not applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits

The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits to this Registration 
Statement is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.  Undertakings

1.	The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes

(1)	To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a 
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i)	To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities 
Act;

(ii)	To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the 
effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-
effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, 
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the 
Registration Statement; and

(iii)	To include any material information with respect to the plan of 
distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any 
material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, 
however that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information 
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs 
is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 
13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference 
in the Registration Statement.

(2)	That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities 
Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new 
Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the 
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial 
bona fide offering thereof.

(3)	To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any 
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of 
the offering.

2.	The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any 
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual 
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that 
is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed 
to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, 
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the 
initial bona fide offering thereof.

3.	Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities 
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the 
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant 
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim 
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the 
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling 
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or 
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in 
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless 
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling 
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether 
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

provided for settlements of derivative actions, (iv) the director or officer 
is permitted to petition a court to determine whether his actions met the 
standard required, and (v) partial indemnification is permitted in the 
event that the director or officer is not entitled to full indemnification.

As permitted by Section l45, the Registrant has purchased a general liability 
insurance policy which covers certain liabilities of directors and officers 
of the Registrant arising out of claims based on acts or omissions in their 
capacity as directors or officers and for which they are not indemnified by 
the Registrant.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed

Not applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits

The Exhibit Index immediately preceding the exhibits to this Registration 
Statement is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 9.  Undertakings

1.	The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes

(1)	To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a 
post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i)	To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities 
Act;

(ii)	To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the 
effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-
effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, 
represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the 
Registration Statement; and

(iii)	To include any material information with respect to the plan of 
distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any 
material change to such information in the Registration Statement; provided, 
however that paragraphs (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information 
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs 
is contained in periodic reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 
13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference 
in the Registration Statement.

(2)	That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities 
Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new 
Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the 
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial 
bona fide offering thereof.

(3)	To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any 
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of 
the offering.

2.	The Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any 
liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual 
report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that 
is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed 
to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, 
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the 
initial bona fide offering thereof.

3.	Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities 
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the 
Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant 
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the 
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim 
for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the 
Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling 
person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or 
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in 
connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless 
in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling 
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether 
such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 
Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
