I 3000 "workers Pink slips are also expected in Topeka Kan where the company has 3000 workers St Paul Minn which has 1000 workers and the Chicago suburb of Schaumburg Ill where 600 work Laid-off workers will be paid through the end of this year and 'then receive a severance package of up to six months of continued insurance coverage and a maximum of two years' salary Sabourin said The action will slash roughly a third of the nonunion work force and more cuts are possible as the two companies merge and seek to eliminate overlap In a filing with federal regulators Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Pacific Corp said they could eliminate up to 2750 white-collar jobs Last week Chief Executive Robert Krebs told analysts that even more positions might be eliminated The cuts come on top of about 500 early retirements arranged this year among white-collar employees of the former Burlington Northern Inc most at the Fort Worth headquarters and in St Paul Minn Sabourin said no further voluntary early retirements affecting workers 50 and older with at least 10 years of service will be offered The Burlington Northern-Santa Fe merger created a railroad with 31000 miles of track in the western half of the United States and about 45000 employees About 10 percent of the work force is in so-called exempt or nonunion categories Railroads have been reducing their payrolls aggressively during the past decade The combined Burlington Northern Santa Fe for instance will have fewer workers than the 58000 who worked for Burlington Northern alone in 1980 No union workers have lost their jobs since the merger because Burlington Northern Santa Fe is still negotiating nonwage work rules that will govern job procedures once the railroads integrate their operations Burlington Northern and other major carriers have cut blue-collar jobs in recent years as part of new union contracts that reduced the size of train crews The layoffs will be the latest in a series of upheavals accompanying the merger announced in June of I 994 and completed in September Fort Worth was named the headquarters of the railroad winning out over Santa Fe's domicile in Schaumburg Krebs was named chief executive officer of the merged railroad working under Burlington Northern Chairman Gerald Grinstein Three top-ranking Burlington Northern executives chief financial officer David Anderson legal affairs vice president Edmund Burke and chief operating officer Ronald were not retained in the new organization Burlington Northern Santa F6 originally estimated that the merg-: er would save $650 million annu ally Krebs said that he thinks ad additional $500 million can be wrung out in savings annually Layoffs From Page 1 Said another "You know they didn't merge those two railroads without the idea of getting some savings and some of us will be the savings" Burlington Northern spokes-Man Jim Sabourin said that the layoff will be "pretty much done by the end of this week" It was not known yesterday how many layoffs will be in Fort Worth where the company employs about la Is I-1 i Section A Page 12 I Fort Worth Star-Telegram I Tuesday November 7 1995 gl 1 Hall Jones 1 it er 0 :4544 i 4

legal effort asks that the court declare his recent Texas Stadium agreements legal The lawsuit also accuses the the league of "gross mismangement" of FL Properties "The NFL Properties has been mismanaged it has been inconsistent it has been unfair between clubs" Jones said "They have basically to The detriment of the NFL used that cartel's power Nike is a perfect example of that They have basically used their power to keep Nike out of the NFL for several years That was a disadvantage to the consumer a vantage to the clubs and a disad- vantage to Nike" Several weeks ago Jones filed a motion to have the league's lawsuit dismissed He said yesterday that the motion is under consideration but that his lawsuit would prob- ably continue even if the leagu stopped its litigation In a news release detailing the lawsuit Jones indicated that other teams including the expansion Carolina Panthers have signed sponsorship agreements authoriz- ing the use of their club trademarks by corporations not affiliated with NFL Properties Panthers' owner Jerry Richard: son who attended last night's game said he was "not sure what he's referring to" School junior "She will always be remembered by her family" said the girl's mother Agnes Rene 49 "All the good things about her and the good intentions that she had she will always be here with us" Agnes Rene and other relatives said their lives have been virtually ruined by the loss of Lisa Rene and the knowledge of the horrible ordeal of rape terror and brutal death that she endured "I just hope no one else will go through this at all" said Pearl Rene 23 the sister who was living with Lisa Rene at the time of the abduction "I thought I would feel better but I don't None of it is going to bring Lisa back" Rene was kidnapped by Hall and his associates in revenge against her two brothers Stanfield Vital is 28 and Neil Rene 19 both of Irving The two allegedly cheated Hall out of S5000 in a soured drug deal In emotional testimony during Hall's trial titans said his sister might still be alive if he and Neil Rene had promptly told police what they knew of her abduction "I just want to say that justice has been served" Vital is said after Hall was sentenced "But that can't bring my sister back" Federal prosecutors said they were pleased with the sentence calling Rene's abduction and slaying one of the most brutal and atrocious crimes they had ever tried "This is as bad as I've seen and I mean bad" said Assistant US Attorney Paul Macaluso whose powerful closing argument for the prosecution last week brought tears to many observers in the courtroom Hall is one of five men who were charged in Rene's abduction and From Page 1 part of their decision they determined that Hall had no remorse "It was a tough decision to make" said juror Jackie Holmes 36 after the sentence was announced "But I think it was the right decision and we're all at peace We just wanted to make sure we were doing the right thing" Rene 16 was studying in her Arlington apartment on Sept 24 1994 when intruders burst through her sliding-glass door as she made a frantic 911 call for help and dragged her away by her hair The honor-roll student who wanted to go to medical school and become a surgeon was taken to Pine Bluff and raped repeatedly while held captive in motel rooms according to court testimony In the predawn hours ofSept 26 she was bludgeoned with a shovel at least 15 times doused with gasoline and buried alive in a thickly wooded nature park in Pine Bluff Ark according to testimony Her nude body was unearthed on Oct 2 in the 4-foot-deep grave "I can't think of anything being more heinous than murdering a 16-year-old and pouring gasoline on her" said juror Marcy Graves' 37 "I work in the health care field and I know what it takes to suffocate" Rene's relatives who traveled to Fort Worth from St Croix in the US Virgin Islands to attend the trial said they take little solace in the death sentence because it will not bring back the Lamar High From Page I only a part of the 80-page lawsuit directly seeks to counterbalance the league's suit which was filed in response to Jones' Texas Stadium deals with Pepsi Dr Pepper Nike and American Express The league contends that the agreements are in violation of the rules that govern NFL Properties the licensing arm of the NFL Trust Jones' suit alleges that the NFL Trust which controls NFL Properties is an "illegal cartel" that violates federal antitrust agreements Jones says in the lawsuit that NFL Properties works as a monopoly prohibiting NFL clubs from participating in free-market competition "The attack on NFL Properties and the attack on revenue sharing is going to make it difficult for people to compete" NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue told ABC during halftime of last night's game between the Cowboys and the Philadelphia Eagles "The lawsuit is a sad comment on where Jerry Jones is He's isolated from the other owners" The Cowboys seek $200 million in actual damages which would be tripled under federal antitrust laws The team seeks an additional I 50 million in punitive damages The lawsuit asks that each NFL team be allowed to control its trademarks and logos and have the power to choose its own sideline apparel and uniform manufacturer In response to the league's Cellular service contract required See below 00 when Beckley who struck a plea bargain for a life sentence without possibility of parole was just as culpable As news of the sentencing circulated around Lamar High School some students who did not know Rene but followed the trial expressed satisfaction that Hall received the death penalty Cymary Leigh 16 a classmate who distributed fliers after Rene was abducted said that the crime justified the death penalty "I wasn't praying he'd get the death penalty" she said But I think that considering what he did he got what he deserved" Kalia Fawkes Rene's friend and former classmate at St Croix Central High School put it more bluntly "He needs to get the death penalty" said Fawkes 17 "He needs it He killed her She was innocent" Staff writer Jan Jarvis and reporter
