• Newspaper reports of a possible bid for Dennis Bros Ltd by Capitarium, the company formed by Mr Frank B. Ford which took over Duple last year, were discounted on Wednesday. Mr George Hughes, Duple deputy chairman and group managing director, said that his company had no shares in Dennis and was not in negotiation on a take-over. There had been preliminary talks last autumn, but after some investigation it was decided not to go ahead and the talks were broken off in November.
