Store photo may include man Cyanide suspect hunt goes on
By United Press International
CHICAGO-Federal agents yesterday narrowed their search for a prime suspect in seven cyanide-Tylenol slayings and police said a man was the suspect, watching one victim purchase cyanide-based Tylenol could be the killer.
Police Superintendent Richard Braceck said the man in a photo taken by a security camera in an northside drugetube bore a "striking resemblance" to James W. Lewis. But acquaintances of Lewis raised doubts that he was the man in the photograph.
Lewis, known by 16 aliases, was charged last week in a $1 million extortion plot against the makers of Extra-Strength Tylenol.
Illinois Attorney General Tyrone Fahner said the nationwide hunt for Lewis and his wife, Leann, had been in a "select number of areas."
Authorities could not confirm that the man in the grainy, slightly blurred photograph was Lewis, and two other Lewis questioned the resemblance.
"I didn't think it was him," said Lewis' former employer, Ed Leavitt, operator of a Chicago tax service. Leavitt, who fired Lewis last spring, said the man in the photo was older and shorter than the suspect.
Lewis' former landlord, 'Thomas Kline, said the man in the photo had body proportions and a hairline different from Lewis'.
Brezecze refused to name Lewis as a suspect in the Tylonel murders. But Fahner said Lewis, 36, and his wife, 35, were "prime suspects at this point." They are not legally required to a suspect is. Obviously, these people are trying to avoid apprehension."
Seven Chicago-area people died between Sept. 29 and Oct. 2 from taking Extra-Strength Tylolen capsule with the quick-killing cyanide.
Lewis has been a fugitive since last December, when he and his wife fled Missouri, where they were wanted on land fraud charges. Lewis was once was charged with murder in the 1978 slaying and dismemberment of man, but charges were dropped because of legal technicalities.
Trash charges won't change for next year
The City of Lawrence will be able to provide trash pickup at the same cost next year as it did this year because of durable diesel engines in the garbage trucks, the Lawrence assistant city manager said yesterday
Mike Wildgen, assistant city manager, said the city reviewed pickup charges every year, and his department has been charged for pickup prices not be raised next year.
He said the department made the recommendation because the city did not have to buy any new equipment this year.
"We didn't expect the new diesel engines to wear quite as well as they have." he said.
New equipment will probably have to be bought in 1884, he said.

The average 1882 KU graduate could not afford to buy the average house in Lawrence, according to figures from the July Career Planning Center Salary Survey and area loan officials.
"In the last 2½ years, houses have become less affordable," he said.
"That's basically because of the exceptionally high interest rates."
But, said Joe Obersand, vice-president of Capitol Federal Savings, 1064 Vermont St., that is not unusual.
"It's pretty difficult for a first-time home buyer to make a down payment on a house," he said, "unless he has managed to accumulate a lot of money through college or has been given a lot by relatives.

"To qualify for a loan you need to
Last year's graduates who found employment had started salaries ranging from $2,675 a month in petroleum industry and from $800 a month in municipality and service organizations work.
Patrick Flavin, president of the Lawrence board of realtors, said the housing market had been rough on everybody for the last few years.
AN AVERAGE house price was difficult to determine, he said, but a loan for a $4,500 house at 12% percent in early 2013 require monthly payments of about $600.
Flavin said interest rates of $ 15\frac{1}{2} $ to
PHIL HARRISON, vice president of Gill Real Estate Agency, 901 Tennessee St., said students gained a little on housing prices last year. Same or equal houses would have cost about the same in Lawrence in 1981 and 1982, he said.
Most houses bought by students were bought by their parents, he said. Up until two years ago parents would often buy a duplex and allow their children to live in one half while they rented the other half.
16 1/4 percent scrape a lot of people away from buying houses, but also kept house prices from inflating at the rate they did in the 1970s.
build than a new house in '79," he said. Harrison said falling interest rates would also make it easier for new graduates to buy houses.
"A new house in '80 or '81 cost less to build than a new house in '72," he said.
