Sperry Marine Inc., international developer and manufacturer of ma- rine navigation, control, communi- cation and stabilization equipment, displayed its new trademark to the press recently. The new mark in- corporates a shining star and a sine wave into the previous trademark.

In November 1993, Sperry was purchased from Newport News Ship- building by a partnership formed by

J.F. Lehman & Company, and the new trademark is designed to re- flect the beginning of a new era for

Sperry.
