            CLARKSBURG, W.Va., Dec. 11, 1995 -- Alamco, Inc.
(AMEX:

        from settlement of its contract rejection claims from href="chap11.columbia.html">Columbia Gas
        Transmission Corporation
("Columbia").  This initial distribution
        was the result of the confirmation by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court of
        Columbia's Plan of Reorganization on November 15, 1995.  The Company
        received proceeds of $7,576,250, of which its share is $5,483,397.

        that the Company would use the proceeds to retire debt.

Grand Union accepts proposal from C&S wholesale
        Grocers, Inc.; Carlstadt, N.J., and Mt. Kisco, N.Y., distribution
        centers to close

           WAYNE, N.J.--December 11, 1995--The
Grand Union
        Company
announced today that it has decided to accept a proposal
        from C&S Wholesale Grocers, Inc., to supply food and other goods to
        its 103 supermarkets in the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut
        metropolitan area.   
        


            The decision means that the company will close its current
        distribution centers in Mt. Kisco, N.Y. and Carlstadt, N.J.
        


            Joseph J. McCaig, president and chief executive officer, said
        the decision to accept the C&S proposal, which is estimated to save
        Grand Union in excess of $14 million per year for the next seven
        years over the Company's present way of supplying product to its New
        York Region stores, was made after careful study and numerous
        meetings with the union representatives of its 450 distribution
        center employees.    
        


            McCaig said "Unfortunately, during our two months of voluntary
        discussions with the Teamsters Union and its affiliated locals, they
        failed to even submit a proposal aimed at saving the jobs involved.
        Therefore, when weighing our options, we could not ignore the
        tremendous benefits and efficiencies presented by the C&S proposal
        as we work to maximize the future growth of our company for our
        customers, our 16,000 associates and our shareholders."
        


            McCaig said the changeover to C&S would commence in the very
        near future and should be completed by the end of February 1996.
        "C&S already supplies our 127 Northern Region stores and has done so
        for the last six months," he said.  "Based upon our excellent
        experience with C&S thus far, we are confident that this arrangement
        will provide an orderly flow of goods to our stores, while at the
        same time achieving significant cost savings."
        


            Grand Union said it recognizes the importance of doing all it
        can to help the members of the three unions and other employees
        impacted by this decision.  "We fully intend to discuss with each
        Local Union the effects of the closings," he said, "including
        severance pay and other termination issues.  In addition, we are
        arranging with the New York and New Jersey State Labor Departments
        to make their services available on-site to all affected employees."
        


            Grand Union currently operates 230 stores in six Northeastern
        states.  Grand Union emerged from bankruptcy on June 15, 1995.
        Shares of its common stock are traded on NASDAQ National Market
        under the ticker symbol GUCO.

            CHICAGO, Ill.--Dec. 11, 1995--The
Hastings
        Group, Inc.
  today announced that it has sold the Jack Henry
        Clothing Co., an institution in Kansas City, to a local investor
        group for $1.478 million in cash.  The transaction, which includes a
        long-term lease for the 38,000 sq. ft. store at 4740 Broadway,
        inventory and the rights to the Jack Henry name, was approved on
        December 6 by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware
        in Wilmington.  
        


            The store was purchased by Peter Arvan & Sons, owners of Peter's
        Clothiers in Overland Park, Kansas.  They intend to continue
        operating the store under the Jack Henry name and do not anticipate
        making any major changes in personnel.  
        


            "We are very pleased to have reached this agreement to sell Jack
        Henry to a local family intent on operating the store as a going
        concern,"  said Jeffrey Coats, Vice Chairman of The Hastings Group.
        "The store has consistently been one of our best performers, and we
        are pleased that its loyal customers will continue to be served.
        Clearly, this transaction is also in the best interests of our
        creditors and the employees at that location."  
        


            Peter Arvan, the store's new owner, said, "Since its founding
        more than 60 years ago, Jack Henry has been an institution in Kansas
        City.  We are very proud to literally give the store a new lease on
        life.  We intend to carry on Jack Henry's tradition of excellent
        customer service and look forward to restoring its enterpreneurial
        spirit."  
        


            Jack Henry was founded in 1931 by Jack D.  Henry Sr.  near its
        current location at the Plaza in Kansas City.  The store was part of
        a national 60-store group purchased by the Hastings Group in 1994.  
        


            As reported, due to the sustained downturn in the men's tailored
        clothing business, the Hastings Group filed a voluntary petition for
        protection under chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code on
        October 23, 1995.  The Chicago-based company has indicated that it
        plans to close or sell all of its stores by early 1996.

        private placement

        Systems International Inc. has entered into a definitive agreement
        with Rexon Incorporated (NASDAQ -
"REXNQ") which has been approved
        by the unsecured creditors's committee for Rexon/Tecmar, Inc. (a
        subsidiary of Rexon).  The purchase agreement contemplates a plan of
        reorganization under which Legacy acquires the business of Rexon and
        its subsidiaries, including to the extent possible the purchase of
        all shares of a reorganized Rexon.  The transaction is subject to
        approval of The United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of
        Colorado.  
        


            In the event that Rexon's plan of reorganization is not
        confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court by March 1, 1996, the purchase
        agreement contemplates that Rexon will seek approval of the
        Bankruptcy Court to sell substantially all of the assets of Rexon
        and its subsidiaries to Legacy pursuant to section 363 of Title 11
        of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code.  In addition to approval of the

        through the assumption of debt, the payment of cash and the issuance
        of common shares of Legacy having a trading value at closing of U.S.
        $5 million.  These shares will be subject to certain escrow
        conditions.

        purchaser other than Legacy acquires the business of Rexon, Legacy
        is entitled to a break-up fee of U.S. $1 million.  The no-shop, top-
        up and break-up fee provisions will become effective on approval by
        the Bankruptcy Court.  If these provisions are approved by the
        Bankruptcy Court, Legacy will issue an additional 2.5 million common
        shares of Legacy. Legacy also announced that it has satisfied all
        conditions for listing on The Toronto Stock Exchange, and that its
        common shares commenced trading on the TSE on December 8, 1995 under

        transaction.

        ANACOMP REACHES REFINANCING AGREEMENT IN PRINCIPLE

        
            ATLANTA, Dec. 11, 1995 -- Anacomp, Inc. (NYSE:
AAC), today
        announced that it has reached an agreement in principle on a
        financial restructuring of the company with the committee of holders
        representing all of Anacomp's publicly-held unsecured debt: the
        company's 15% Senior Subordinated Notes, the company's 9%
        Convertible Subordinated Debentures, and the company's 13.875%
        Convertible Subordinated Debentures.  Anacomp intends to file a
        registration statement by Dec. 15, 1995 with the Securities and
        Exchange Commission (the "SEC") and, upon SEC approval of the
        registration statement, to begin to solicit votes for approval of a
        prepackaged plan of reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United
        States Bankruptcy Code that would accomplish the restructuring.
        


            Pursuant to the terms of this proposal, (i) the company's senior
        secured debt would be exchanged into new Senior Secured Notes (the
        "New Senior Secured Notes") with a four-year maturity and periodic
        sinking fund payments, which notes would be collateralized by first
        liens on substantially all of the assets of the company; (ii) the
        company's 15% Senior Subordinated Notes would be exchanged into $195
        million principal amount of new 13% Senior Subordinated Notes with a
        six-year maturity, plus 92.5% of the company's new common stock;
        (iii) the company's 13.875% Convertible Subordinated Debentures and
        9% Convertible Subordinated Debentures would be exchanged into 7.5%
        of the company's new common stock, plus warrants to purchase 2.5% of
        the company's new common stock; and (iv) the company's existing
        redeemable preferred stock and common stock would receive warrants
        to purchase an aggregate of 1.0% of the company's new common stock.
        The coupon on the New Senior Secured Notes would be 12.5% (assuming
        acceptance by the senior secured debt of the prepackaged plan) or
        12.0% (if the plan is rejected by such class).  The full details of
        the proposal will be contained in the registration statement to be
        filed by the end of the week.
        


            Under the proposal, Anacomp's trade creditors and vendors would
        be paid in full in the ordinary course of business, without any
        impairment by the prepackaged plan of reorganization.  The company's
        commitments to its customers would remain unaffected.

        
            Anacomp will be soliciting approval for the proposal from its
        senior secured lenders, public bondholders, and holders of its
        preferred and common stock.  Certain representatives of the
        company's senior secured lenders have indicated that they would
        reject the proposal.  Anacomp believes that the prepackaged plan can
        be confirmed without the approval of its senior secured lenders.
        There can be no assurance that the restructuring will be consummated
        on the terms set forth in the proposal or otherwise.
   

     
            "Anacomp is pleased to reach this agreement in principle and
        hopes to obtain an agreement among all of its creditors during the
        solicitation of its restructuring," noted Lang Lowrey, the company's
        president and recently appointed chief executive officer.  "If the
        company is successful in consummating its restructuring plan, the
        company will have the appropriate capital structure for its ongoing
        operations as well as sufficient resources to grow its business,
        including the acquisition of certain new digital technologies."
      

  
            Anacomp is a leading provider of multiple-media data management
        solutions, delivering cost-effective strategies that incorporate
        micrographic, digital, and magnetic output media.
