CINCINNATI BELL <CSN> STARTS AUXTON <AUXT> BID
Cincinnati Bell Inc said it has started
its previously-announced 15.75 dlr per share tender offer for
all shares of Auxton Computer Enterprises Inc.
    In a newspaper advertisement, the company said the tender
and withdrawal rights will expire May Five unless extended. The
offer, which has been approved by the Auxton board and is to be
followed by a merger at the same price, is conditioned on
receipt of a majority of Auxton's voting stock on a fully
diluted basis.
