BJ plans more cuts in Ad Creative Services

The Beacon Journal is planning more staff cuts in the Ad Creative Services department. By eliiminating personnel and shifting some graphic designers to a new second shift. The purpose apparently is to meet deadlines. Pay increases have been frozen. Errors affecting advertisers like Wayside and IGA have made it necessary to print retractions apologizing for them. The ad errors occurred after Phil White, advertising customer service manager, lost his job in earlier cuts in June. . White is 55 years old and began working at the Beacon Journal on June 23, 1975.
