			Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D (Final)

	This Amendment No. 1 amends the Schedule 13D, dated March 8, 
1996 (the "Schedule 13D"), filed by Carson Pirie Scott & Co. 
("CPS").  The term "Company Common Stock" is defined in the Schedule 
13D.

I.  Items 5(a), 5(c), and 5(e) of the Schedule 13D are amended and 
restated as follows:

	(a)	CPS beneficially owns 741,550 shares of Company Common 
Stock, representing approximately 3.89% of the shares of Company 
Common Stock outstanding, as reported by the Company as of January 
3, 1996.

	(c)	Except as described in the next sentence, CPS has not 
effected any transaction in Company Common Stock during the past 60 
days.  On April 2, 1996, CPS sold (i) 50,000 shares of Company 
Common Stock at $31.50 per share for net proceeds after fees of 
$1,574,982 and (ii) 165,000 shares of Company Common Stock at $31.00 
per share for net proceeds after fees of $5,114,958.  On April 3, 
1996, CPS sold 70,000 shares of Company Common Stock at $30.25 per 
share for net proceeds after fees of $2,117,440.

	(e)	CPS ceased to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of 
Company Common Stock on April 2, 1996.  Accordingly, CPS no longer 
has a reporting obligation under Section 13(d) of Securities 
Exchange Act of 1934 with respect to Company Common Stock.  CPS does 
not intend to further amend its report on Schedule 13D to reflect 
changes in the facts described in the Schedule 13D which may occur 
after the date of this Amendment No. 1.

	After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and 
belief, I certify that the information set forth in this Statement 
is true, complete and correct.

Dated:  April 4, 1996
