IRTG - bought this AM, news supposed to be out on Monday; IRT Industries Announces New Management, Business Pursuits and Other Events FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 8, 1999--IRT Industries Inc. (the ''company''), which trades on the OTC Bulletin Board owned by the Nasdaq Stock Market (IRTG), has announced a change on management, a pending sale of its casino operations, pursuit of new business operations, and other events. In September 1998, the president of the company resigned. In November 1998, the two existing directors of the company resigned and appointed a replacement. The new director and president is Arnold Wrobel. The company is in the process of consummating an intended sale of its casino business operations and related licenses in Costa Rica, and has canceled all pursuits for casino related acquisitions.
