Business Wire, Nov 7, 1995

SALT LAKE CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 7, 1995--Evans & Sutherland Computer Corporation (Nasdaq: ESCC) today announced strategic changes in its Government Simulation business unit which provides visual systems to the U.S. and international simulation and training markets. James Oyler, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The Government Simulation business unit is now organized to better address the growth we are experiencing in both our domestic and international markets.

As part of the move, a new market development group was formed to allow E&S to expand into simulation markets not previously addressed."

Reporting directly to Mr. Sutherland is David Janke, Vice President of New Business Development; Bruce Erickson, Vice President of New Market Development; Hin-Man Tong, Vice President of Engineering; Quill Nebeker, Director of Contracts and Pricing; Jayne Anderson, Marketing Communications Manager; Mary Steer, Strategic Planning Specialist; and a Vice President of Program Management who will be announced at a later date. Mr. Sutherland will be acting Vice President of Program Management until this position is filled.
