Louis Breuer Leads Turnaround at General Exploration

Louis K Breuer, former Cedar Rapids reporter and Collins Radio executive, became corporate president of General Exploration in Canton Ohio as the firm seeks Chapter 11 recovery. He aims to stabilize finances, renegotiate with creditors, and pursue coal assets in Kentucky and Ohio while balancing a long commute between Texas and Ohio. Breuer, 64, rose through Varo Inc and General Exploration amid a 22 million borrowings boom and a 1979 prime rate spike, facing layoffs and a challenging market for metallurgical coal along with union negotiations. He is married to Betty and has children in Dallas Texas and nearby McKinney, with a Vietnam War son lost in 1972.

Singer Moves Management To Montvale Amid Takeover Risk

The Singer Co moved its principal executive offices to Montvale New Jersey from Stamford Connecticut as 180 managers stay behind. The move comes after Mesa Limited Partnership owned 44 percent of Singer shares and suggested an offer up to 15 percent. New Jersey anti takeover law requires a 10 percent stake holder to wait five years before a merger with two thirds of disinterested shareholders or continued share purchase under a pricing plan. Singer stock finished the week at 49.75 on the NYSE.
