#define _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE
#include <cstdio>
#include <algorithm>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int N,kk,n,res,j;
int x[100],y[100];
int mnx[100],mny[100],mxx[100],mxy[100];


void inline Rec(int i, int k, int sz)
{

    if (k<=kk && sz<=res)
    {
        if (i==n)
        {
            res=min(res,sz);
        }
        else
        {
            for (int j=0; j<=k; ++j)
            {
                int omnx=mnx[j],omny=mny[j],omxx=mxx[j],omxy=mxy[j];
                mnx[j]=min(mnx[j],x[i]);
                mny[j]=min(mny[j],y[i]);
                mxx[j]=max(mxx[j],x[i]);
                mxy[j]=max(mxy[j],y[i]);
                Rec(i+1,max(k,j+1),max(sz,max(mxx[j]-mnx[j],mxy[j]-mny[j])));
                mnx[j]=omnx,mny[j]=omny,mxx[j]=omxx,mxy[j]=omxy;

            }
        }
    }
}

int main()

        for (int i=0; i<n; ++i)
            scanf("%d%d",&x[i],&y[i]);
        for (int i=0; i<100; ++i)
            mnx[i] = mny[i] = 1000000,
            mxx[i] = mxy[i] = -1000000;
        res=1000000;
        Rec(0,0,0);
        printf("Case #%d: %d\n",ii+1,res);
    }
    return 0;
}
