He still presides at board meetings. Wiped out of a clothing business in Grand Rapids, Mich, by the panic of 1873, the merchant came to Indianapolis and took over the management of the Model Clothing Co. at the southwest corner of Pennsylvania and Washington sts. The S. 8. Kresge Co. is there now. Legend here said he built the store, which was near bankruptcy, into a $350,000-a-year business. Quiet Celebration He planned to spend his birthday quietly at his summer home in St. Joseph, Mich. Business methods, he said, have improved tremendously since the late 1860's when he opened his first general merchandise store in the little town of Ionia, Mich, at the age of 20 and became a pioneer in modern advertising techniques: “Early methods were so conseryative that something drastic had to be done about them,” he recalled. “Only during the last few decades has advertising taken great steps forward. And advertising is to selling what steam is to an engine. :

Well, my man lost so I paid off the bet—even though they almost had to carry me out of the window and I had to buy a new dress suit. “But it was a wonderful stunt” he smiled. “Thousands of people came to watch. They had to call out extra police to clear State st.” Began as Office Boy Mr. Lytton began his business career in his native New York at the pge of 15, earning 50 cents a week as an office boy in a law office. He entered the retail clothing business the next year and later went to St. Louis ‘where he managed to save enough money selling boots to civil war veterans to open his own store in Ionia in the 60's. During this time, Mr. Lytton saved $12,000 and in 1887 came to Chicago to found the Hub, which soon became one of the largest retail stores in Chicago. He continued in direct control of the store until 1929 when he sold jt for $7, 000,000. By 1932, his successor had overexpanded and in the reorganization that followed, Mr. Lytton, then 87, again assumed control of the business. His policy of treating cus tomers “with the same honesty and consideration extended to personal friends” put the business back on its feet.

CAPEHART RAPS NEW OPA BILL

Votes Against Measure; Willis Is Absent.

By DAN KIDNEY Times Sta Writer WASHINGTON, July 13--8ena-

dina, was one of 15 Voting against the revived and revised OPA bill which passed the senate at 1:56 a. m. today with 62 favorable votes. Senator Willis, Indiana's other senator, has gone back to Angola and was not on hand for the final voting. Until he left, he had supported all emasculating amendments as had Senator Capehart. Today, however, Senator Capehart, member of the senate banking committee which handles the OPA legislation,. denounced the bill as passed by the senate as offering no price control at all except in the manufacturing and retail fields, “As passed by the senate this is a decontrol,” Sen. Capehart sald. “I voted against it because I did not want to be a party to fooling the people. For the same reason, voted against the OPA bill which President Truman vetoed. Favors Rent Control “The only price control I favor at this time is rent control. If this bill falls, I shall work for passage of a separate rent control measure. 1 think we should try doing without OPA for a while." Senator Capehart had prepared an amendment to make OPA operative on Nov. 15 by Presidential order on products where prices were out of line, except in the case of rent. Under the Capehart plan, the President would have the power after that date to roll back prices to the June 30 level, the time when OPA expired. Seeing no chance for adoption of his amendment, he abandoned his plan to push it during the hurlyburly of last night's debate,

OPA on passage included extremists on both the right and left—those who want an air-tight OPA and those, like Senator Capehart, who want nothing but rent control.

Hippo Weighing Due on Birthday

By Science Service NEW YORK, July 13.—Today is Pete's birthday, and the 43-year-old hippopotamus at the Bronx zoo here is going to get a unique birthday present. He is going to be weighed. Pete may not be much impressed by the whole thing, but actually determining the weight of an adult hippopotamus is quite a feat. Getting Pete's estimated 4500 pounds on a scale would be complicated. So a simpler system such as is used in measuring ships has been devised. The plan is to measure the -hippo's displacement in “his swimming pool. John Tee-Van and Quentin Schubert of the zoo’s stafl believe Pete's specific gravity is about that of water. Thus each cubic foot of water he displaces will be 62% pounds. Pete, born in the Central park menagerie July 13, 1903, was the seventh offspring of the famous “Mrs. Murphy,” mother of many of the hippos in American zoos.

ex«WAVE Frances ' Brown, formei Richmond, Ind. resident, Mr. Storms asserted Heirens was the “greatest criminal of his age in Chicago police annals.” He sald no “foreign” prints had been found on the mote, that all identifiable had been linked with Heirens. The youth, held for are raignment Tuesday on 20 indicte ments charging burglary, assault and robbery, has not been charged in the Degnan case. State's Attorney William J. Tuohy said the youth's fingerprints had been found to check on 22 points with prints found in Miss Brown's North side apartment, Nine of the points were on the first joint of the finger and 13 on the second, Tuohy said. AL Chief Storms was elated at the discovery. He said it definitely pus Heirens at the scene of the crime. He sald the prints had been sent to the federal bureau of investiga« tion at Washington for confirmae tion. After being advised o’ the. new discovery, Warden Fran. G. Sain removed Heirens from his cell in a regular tier block at the county jail to the observation tier where he will be under constant observation. The youth's finger and palm print earlier had been matched with those found on a $20,000 ransom note left in the kidnaping of 6-year= old Suzanne Degnan. Parts of the little girl's dise membered body were found in sew ers, after she was taken from her room last Jan. 7.

samples of Heirens’ handwriting. The message, scrawled in lipstick, read: “For heaven's sake catch me before. I kill more. I cannot contrel myself.” 29 Indictments No charges have been placed against Heirens in the Degnan or - Brown cases, although he will be arraigned Tuesday on 29 indicte ments charging burglary, assault te kill and robbery and assault. Tuohy said the state would be ready to try the burglary cases as soon as Heirens is arraigned and that he would ask consecutive sen’ tences. Asked why he was not seeking an immediate indictment of the youth in the Degnan case, Tuohy replied. “We are waiting to complete our investigation. We want as full a case and as airtight a case as we can produce, There is still much te be done.”
