Died. Archduke Maximilian Eugene von Hohenberg of Habsburg, 56, younger brother of Charles Francis Joseph, last Emperor of Austria-Hungary; of a heart attack; at his home in exile, a hotel in Mce, France. Orphaned in 1914 when his mother and his father, Archduke Francis Ferdinand, were assassinated at Sarajevo --the spark that touched off World War I --Maximilian took command of an Austrian infantry battalion, won decorations for valor in fighting the Italians. After the Armistice, he was mostly in flight, in exile, or in the Nazis' "protective custody," ended up a forgotten anachronism living under the alias "the Count of Kyburg."

Died. Walter 0. (for Owen) Briggs, 74, founder and board chairman of the Briggs Manufacturing Co., largest independent auto-body maker in the U.S., and since 1936 sole owner of the Detroit Tigers; of a kidney ailment; at his winter home in Miami Beach, Fla. The up-from-the-shop son of a locomotive engineer, Briggs at 27 was a junior magnate in Detroit's mushrooming car production. In 1907, after having trouble getting tickets to see the Tigers in their first World Series, he resolved that some day he would give Detroit a ball park with enough seats for all its fans, 30 years later spent $1,000,000 to enlarge Briggs Stadium to 58,000 capacity. Said he: "I am just a fan."

Died. George Remus, 78, "King of the Bootleggers," who piled up millions during Prohibition, spent it all beating a murder rap (the victim: his wife, who was trifling with an FBI man); after long illness ; in Covington, Ky. Originally a druggist, German-born Remus became a criminal lawyer, turned to bootlegging after seeing how easily he got acquittals for rich dry-law offenders. So wholesale were his operations that, on one occasion, a freight train chuffed into Cincinnati with 18 full carloads of liquor consigned to Remus. After shooting his wife in cold blood, he successfully defended himself on a plea of insanity. Sent to a mental hospital, he quickly proved his sanity and won his freedom by invoking the testimony of the prosecution's three alienists. Remus swore to the end that he "never tasted a drop of intoxicating beverage" in his life.

Died. Alvan Macauley, 80, longtime (1916-39) president and general manager of the Packard ("Ask the Man Who Owns One") Motor Car Co.; of uremic poisoning and pneumonia; in Clearwater, Fla. His favorite motto: "An hour of work" is better for America than "a dollar for dole."
