                                 TO SCHEDULE 13D

         (a) This Statement is filed (i) by Tremont Corporation  ("Tremont") and
Valhi,  Inc.  ("Valhi") as the direct  holders of Shares,  (ii) by virtue of the

the Harold Simmons  Foundation,  Inc. (the  "Foundation") and (iii) by virtue of
his  positions  with Contran and certain of the other  entities (as described in
this Statement),  by Harold C. Simmons (collectively,  the "Reporting Persons").
By signing this Statement,  each Reporting  Person agrees that this Statement is
filed on its or his behalf.

         Valhi and Tremont  are the direct  holders of  approximately  63.2% and
21.4%,  respectively,  of the 47,682,384  Shares  outstanding as of November 14,
2002  according to the Company's  Quarterly  Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter
ended September 30, 2002 (the "Outstanding Shares"). Together, Valhi and Tremont
may be deemed to control the Company. TGI, the Company and Valhi are the holders
of approximately 80.0%, 0.1% and 0.1%,  respectively,  of the outstanding shares
of common stock of Tremont and together may be deemed to control Tremont.  Valhi
and the  Company  are the  direct  holders  of  approximately  80.0% and  20.0%,

are the direct holders of approximately  80.6%, 9.5%, 2.1%, 1.4%, 0.4% and 0.1%,
respectively,  of the common stock of Valhi. Together, VGI, National and Contran
may be deemed to control Valhi.  National,  NOA and Dixie Holding are the direct
holders  of  approximately  73.3%,  11.4%  and  15.3%,   respectively,   of  the

         Substantially  all of  Contran's  outstanding  voting  stock is held by
trusts  established  for the benefit of certain  children and  grandchildren  of
Harold C. Simmons (the "Trusts"),  of which Mr. Simmons is the sole trustee.  As
sole trustee of each of the Trusts, Mr. Simmons has the power to vote and direct
the  disposition of the shares of Contran stock held by each of the Trusts.  Mr.
Simmons, however,  disclaims beneficial ownership of any shares of Contran stock
that the Trusts hold.

         The Foundation  directly holds  approximately  1.4% of the  outstanding
Valhi common  stock.  The  Foundation is a tax-exempt  foundation  organized for
charitable  purposes.  Harold C.  Simmons is the chairman of the board and chief
executive officer of the Foundation and may be deemed to control the Foundation.

         The CDCT No. 2 directly  holds  approximately  0.4% of the  outstanding
Valhi common stock. U.S. Bank National  Association serves as the trustee of the
CDCT No. 2. Contran  established the CDCT No. 2 as an irrevocable  "rabbi trust"
to assist Contran in meeting certain deferred  compensation  obligations that it
owes to Harold C. Simmons.  If the CDCT No. 2 assets are insufficient to satisfy
such  obligations,   Contran  is  obligated  to  satisfy  the  balance  of  such
obligations  as they come due.  Pursuant to the terms of the CDCT No. 2, Contran
(i) retains the power to vote the shares of Valhi common stock held  directly by
the CDCT No. 2, (ii) retains dispositive power over such shares and (iii) may be
deemed the indirect beneficial owner of such shares.

         The CMRT directly holds approximately 0.1% of the outstanding shares of
Valhi  common  stock.  Valhi  established  the  CMRT as a trust  to  permit  the
collective  investment  by master  trusts  that  maintain  the assets of certain
employee  benefit plans Valhi and related  companies  adopt.  Mr. Simmons is the
sole trustee of the CMRT and a member of the trust investment  committee for the
CMRT. Mr. Simmons is a participant in one or more of the employee  benefit plans
that invest through the CMRT.

         Valmont Insurance  Company  ("Valmont") and a subsidiary of the Company
directly own  1,000,000  shares and  1,186,200  shares,  respectively,  of Valhi
common stock. Valhi is the direct holder of 100% of the outstanding common stock
of Valmont and may be deemed to control Valmont. Pursuant to Delaware law, Valhi
treats the shares of Valhi common stock that Valmont and the  subsidiary  of the
Company own as treasury  stock for voting  purposes and for the purposes of this
Statement are not deemed outstanding.

         Mr.  Harold C.  Simmons is  chairman  of the board and chief  executive
officer of TGI, VGI,  National,  NOA, Dixie Holding,  Dixie Rice,  Southwest and
Contran.  Mr. Simmons is also chairman of the board of the Company and Valhi and
a director of Tremont.

         By virtue of the holding of the offices, the stock ownership and his
service as trustee, all as described above, (a) Mr. Simmons may be deemed to

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction.

         Item 4 is amended as follows.

         On November 4, 2002,  Valhi and Tremont  entered into an Agreement  and
Plan of Merger,  as amended,  for Valhi to acquire Tremont in a  stock-for-stock
exchange  (the "Merger  Agreement").  The  description  of the Merger  Agreement
contained  in this  Statement  is  qualified  in its  entirety by  reference  to
Appendix A to the Registration Statement on Form S-4 (Reg. No. 333-101244) filed
by Valhi on November 15, 2002 (the "Registration Statement") with the Securities
and Exchange  Commission  (the  "Commission"),  which Appendix A is incorporated
herein by reference. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, a wholly owned subsidiary
of Valhi will merge (the  "Merger") with and into Tremont with Tremont being the
surviving entity. In the Merger,  each stockholder of Tremont,  other than Valhi
and TGI,  will  receive 3.4 shares of Valhi  common  stock for each  outstanding
share of Tremont  common stock held by such  stockholder.  The Merger  Agreement
provides that Tremont's  stockholders will receive cash in lieu of Valhi issuing
any fractional shares in the Merger.  The Merger is subject to customary closing
conditions  and will  require  the  approval of the holders of a majority of the
outstanding shares of Tremont common stock. TGI has indicated that it intends to
vote its  shares of  Tremont  common  stock in favor of  adoption  of the Merger
Agreement.  Therefore,  assuming that TGI so votes its shares of Tremont  common
stock, the Merger Agreement will be adopted and the Merger will be completed.

         On November 4, 2002,  Valhi and TGI entered into an Agreement  and Plan
of Merger for Valhi to acquire  all of TGI in a  stock-for-stock  exchange  (the
"TGI Merger  Agreement").  The description of the TGI Merger Agreement contained
in this  Statement  is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.3 to
Valhi's  Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2002,
which agreement is incorporated herein by reference.  Pursuant to the TGI Merger
Agreement, a wholly owned subsidiary of Valhi will merge (the "TGI Merger") with
and into TGI with TGI being the surviving entity. In the TGI Merger,  Valhi will
issue  3,495,200  shares  of its  common  stock in  exchange  for the  Company's
approximately  20%  ownership  interest  in TGI.  The  number of shares of Valhi
common  stock to be  issued  to the  Company  in the TGI  Merger is equal to the
Company's approximately 20% pro rata interest in the 5,141,421 shares of Tremont
common stock currently owned by TGI, adjusted for the same 3.4 exchange ratio in
the Merger.  The  effectiveness  of the TGI Merger,  which has been  approved by
TGI's stockholders, is a condition to Tremont's obligations to close the Merger.

         Since the Company is a majority owned subsidiary of Valhi,  pursuant to
Delaware law Valhi will treat any Shares  issued to the Company in the Merger or
the TGI Merger as treasury stock for voting purposes.

         On November 5, 2002,  Valhi and  Tremont  issued a joint press  release
disclosing the execution of the Merger Agreement. A copy of the press release is
incorporated  herein  by  reference  to the  Form 425  filed  by Valhi  with the
Commission on November 5, 2002.

         On  November  15,  2002,  Valhi  filed the  Registration  Statement  to
register  the  shares of Valhi  common  stock to be issued  in the  Merger.  The
prospectus  included  in the  Registration  Statement  also  serves  as a  proxy
statement  pursuant  to which  Tremont's  board of  directors  plans to  solicit
proxies  from  Tremont's  stockholders  to  adopt  the  Merger  Agreement.   The
information  contained in the  Registration  Statement  under the captions  "The
Merger - General  Description," "- Background of the Merger," "- Valhi's Reasons
for the Merger," "- Ownership Interests in Valhi Common Stock After the Merger,"
"- Management  and Operations  After the Merger," "- Litigation  Relating to the
Merger" and "Related  Transactions to Be Completed  Immediately  Prior to and as
Soon as Possible Following the Completion of the Merger," is incorporated herein
by reference.  The information contained in the prospectus/proxy  statement that
is a part of the  Registration  Statement  is not  complete  and may be changed.
Valhi cannot sell the securities to be issued in the Merger until the Commission
declares the Registration  Statement effective.  The prospectus/proxy  statement
that  is a part of the  Registration  Statement  is not an  offer  to sell  such
securities and it is not soliciting an offer to buy such securities in any state
where offers or sales are not permitted. The prospectus/proxy  statement that is
a part of the Registration  Statement is not soliciting  material from Tremont's
board of  directors  in  connection  with the  solicitation  of proxies  for the
adoption of the Merger Agreement.

         Depending  upon  their   evaluation  of  the  Company's   business  and
prospects,  and  upon  future  developments  (including,  but  not  limited  to,
performance of the Shares in the market, availability of funds, alternative uses
of funds, the Reporting Persons' tax planning objectives and money, stock market
and general economic conditions), any of the Reporting Persons or other entities
or persons  that may be deemed to be  affiliated  with  Contran may from time to
time  purchase  Shares,  and any of the Reporting  Persons or other  entities or
persons that may be deemed to be  affiliated  with Contran may from time to time
dispose  of all or a portion  of the Shares  held by such  entity or person,  or
cease buying or selling Shares.  Any such  additional  purchases or sales of the
Shares may be in open market or privately negotiated transactions or otherwise.

         As described under Item 2, Harold C. Simmons,  through Contran,  may be
deemed to control the Company.

         The information  included under Item 6 of this Amendment No. 68 to this
Statement is incorporated herein by reference.

         Certain of the persons named in Schedule B to this Statement, namely J.
Landis  Martin,  Thomas P.  Stafford,  Glenn R.  Simmons,  Harold C. Simmons and
Steven L. Watson are directors or officers of the Company and may acquire Shares
from time to time pursuant to benefit  plans that the Company  sponsors or other
compensation arrangements with the Company.

         Except as described in this Item 4, none of the Reporting  Persons nor,
to the best  knowledge of such persons,  any other person named in Schedule B to
this Statement has  formulated  any plans or proposals  which relate to or would
result in any matter  required to be  disclosed  in response to  paragraphs  (a)
through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

         Item 5 is amended as follows:

         (a) Valhi, Tremont, Harold C. Simmons' spouse and Harold C. Simmons are

                  (1)  Tremont  and TGI may each be deemed to be the  beneficial
         owner of the 10,215,541 Shares  (approximately 21.4% of the Outstanding

                  (2) Valhi,  VGI,  National,  NOA, Dixie  Holding,  Dixie Rice,
         Southwest,  Contran,  the CMRT and the Foundation may each be deemed to
         be the beneficial owner of the 40,350,931 Shares  (approximately  84.6%
         of the Outstanding Shares) directly held by Valhi and Tremont; and

                  (3) Harold C. Simmons may be deemed to be the beneficial owner
         of the  40,435,406  Shares  (approximately  84.8%  of  the  Outstanding
         Shares)  directly  held by Valhi,  Tremont,  Mr.  Simmons'  spouse  and
         himself and including the 10,000 Shares that Mr. Simmons can acquire by
         exercise of stock options (only 8,000 of which stock options are vested
         or will vest within 60 days of the filing of this Statement).

         Mr. Simmons disclaims  beneficial  ownership of all Shares,  except the
5,000 Shares that he holds  directly and the 10,000 Shares that Mr.  Simmons can
acquire by exercise  of stock  options  (only  8,000 of which stock  options are
vested or will vest within 60 days of the filing of this Statement).

         The Reporting Persons  understand,  based on ownership filings with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission or upon information  provided by the persons
listed on Schedule B to this  Statement,  that such persons may be deemed to own
personally  and  beneficially  the  Shares as  indicated  on  Schedule C to this
Statement.

         (b)      By virtue of the relationships described in Item 2:

                  (1)  Tremont  and TGI may each be deemed to share the power to
         vote and direct the  disposition of the 10,215,541  Shares that Tremont
         directly holds;

                  (2) Valhi,  VGI,  National,  NOA, Dixie  Holding,  Dixie Rice,
         Southwest,  Contran,  the CMRT and the Foundation may each be deemed to

         Shares that Valhi and Tremont directly hold;

                  (3) Harold C. Simmons may be deemed to share the power to vote
         and direct the disposition of the 40,420,406 Shares that Valhi, Tremont
         and Mr. Simmons' spouse directly hold; and

                  (4) Harold C.  Simmons may be deemed to have the sole power to
         vote and  direct  the  disposition  of the 5,000  Shares  that he holds
         directly  and the 10,000  shares  that he can  acquire  pursuant to the
         exercise of stock options (only 8,000 of which stock options are vested
         or will vest within 60 days of the filing of this Statement).

         (c) Within the last 60 days of this  amendment,  certain of the persons
named on Schedule B to this Statement effected  transactions in Shares and stock
options  exercisable for Shares.  Such  transactions are set forth on Schedule D
attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

         (d) Each of Valhi,  Tremont,  Harold C.  Simmons'  spouse and Harold C.
Simmons  has the  right to  receive  and the  power to  direct  the  receipt  of
dividends  from,  and proceeds  from the sale of, the Shares that such entity or
person directly holds.

         Item 6 is amended as follows:

         Valhi is a party to a Credit  Agreement (the "Valhi Credit  Facility"),
as amended,  with Comerica Bank, PNB Financial Bank, Texas Capital Bank and U.S.
Bank National Association (collectively,  the "Banks"). The Banks have committed
to loan to Valhi under the Valhi  Credit  Facility up to an  aggregate  of $70.0
million.  The  maximum  amount that Valhi could  borrow  under the Valhi  Credit
Facility could be increased to a maximum of $100 million, if and when additional
participating  banks  committed  to loan  additional  amounts to Valhi under the
Valhi  Credit  Facility.  The maturity  date for the Valhi  Credit  Agreement is
October 31, 2003.

         Borrowings  under the Valhi Credit  Facility bear interest (i) for base
rate borrowings, at the greater of the rate announced publicly from time to time
by U.S.  Bank as its prime rate or 0.50% over the federal funds rate or (ii) for
eurodollar  borrowings,  at a rate of 1.5% over the relevant rate  (adjusted for
statutory reserve requirements for eurodollar  liabilities) at which deposits in
U.S.  dollars  are  offered  to  U.S.  Bank's  London  office  in the  interbank
eurodollar  market (the one,  two,  three or six month rate at Valhi's  option).
Valhi's  obligations  under the Valhi  Credit  Facility  are  collateralized  by
certain Shares.  As of November 22, 2002, Valhi had borrowed $62.0 million under
the Valhi Credit Facility,  approximately $1.1 million of letters of credit were
outstanding  under the Valhi Credit  Facility  and Valhi had pledged  29,974,610
Shares (62.9% of the Outstanding  Shares) under the Valhi Credit  Facility.  The
aggregate  amount that Valhi could  borrow  under the Valhi  Credit  Facility is
limited  to  one-third  of the fair  market  value of the  pledged  Shares.  The
foregoing  summary of the Valhi Credit  Facility is qualified in its entirety by
reference to Exhibits 7 through 14 to this Statement.

         The  information  included in Item 4 of this  Amendment  No. 68 to this
Statement is hereby incorporated herein by reference.

         Other than as set forth above, none of the Reporting Persons or, to the
best knowledge of such persons, any person named in Schedule B to this Statement
has  any  contract,   arrangement,   understanding  or  relationship  (legal  or
otherwise) with any person with respect to securities of the Company, including,
but not limited to,  transfer or voting of any such  securities,  finder's fees,
joint  ventures,  loans or option  arrangements,  puts or calls,  guarantees  of
profits, division of profits or losses, or the giving or withholding of proxies.
