Call Us Thinking small in some stores Sakowitz icapsulizing WASHINGTON (AP) Supreme Court cleared the way Monday for public disclosure of million in alleged foreign bribes by International Telephone Telegraph Corp The court turned clovm rrrs request to bar disclosure despite the company's claim that publication of charges by the Securities and Exchange Commission would "threaten substantial commercial injury to the corporation's business" The decision which was made without comment by the justices allows US District Judge George Hart Jr in Washington to allow the SEC to release details of the charges FIT issued a statement in New York saying it "regrets" the Supreme Court action nd will "vigorously contest SEC claims that l'IT is continuing to violate securities laws in any respect"

emphasis on formal structured clothing meaning fewer suits with more stress on sport coats slacks and sportswear There is also greater emphasis on directional men's apparel what Sakowitz calls its "continental divide" AMONG THE departments eliminated are: china crystal silver linens and fabrics the reason being that they are slower turn areas and can be added as freestanding shops later if the market warrants Sakowitz president Robert Sakowitz does not subscribe to the department store approach to selling "Department stores" he says "are notorious for the problem That's not my table That's not my department I have to turn you over to somebody else'" For this reason and no doubt to make up for the lack of merchandise in key service is heavily stressed in the new store Customers are treated as clients given individual attention and guided from department to department by one salesperson Exceptions to the practice are the shoes cosmetics and foundations areas As selections are made additions from other departments are suggested Nearly three months after opening the Champions Village store is posting volume increases of 15 to 20 percent over annual projection rates for its first six to eight weeks and Sakowitz feels the remainder of the year will yield even greater increases Agreed to decide in a case involving Oscar Mayer Co whether employees who sue employers in

are shifting major retailers are redefining their merchandise strategies An innovative case in point is Sakowitz's "capsule store" north of Houston a scaled-down version of one ji: of the exclusive chain's full-line stores Specialized to meet the tastes and life1: style of the area the capsule store has certain merchandise areas that are rv strengthened and others that have been reduced or eliminated "Sakowitz II" as it is called is locat- I sed in Champions Village III a satellite shopping center 20 miles north of nousROBERT ton The area though growing has not SAKOW1TZ reached its full potential for a complete-line store Important differences stand out between a Sakowitz full-line store and an edited version Besides being much larger a fullliner such as the 187000-square-foot flagship in Galleria-Post Oak which is called "affluent West Houston" draws customers from within a five- to 20-mile radius By contrast the smaller capsule unit is designed to draw from its imnediate neighborhood a three to five-mile radius maximum THERE ARE other important differences In general Sakowitz full-line stores contain more static fixtures are more "departmentalized" and assortments are: wider Sales personnel are trained to sell in one department only Aisles are wider and there is more general illumination In contrast the capsule unit has limited aisle space to create a flow between departments Lucite bronze and glass fixtures designed to set off merchandise displays are paired with "hot and cool" patches of spotlight and shadow and less general illumination The small store is constructed of rough textured fluted mocha stone with cedar wood accents and topped by a bronze and glass done atrium The interior features natural wood parquet flooring earth tones and an

mushroomed from 10000 to 60000 residents "In a fast growing city like Houston" one observer notes -there is always the possibility that a major shopping center could open near a capsule store and practically put it out of business" But Sakawitz is forging ahead with his capsule stores and his next venture will be a 30000-square-foot store under construction in the Ports of Call Mall in Clear
