Sprint Corporation has heretofore filed Registration
Statement No. 33-28544 which initially registered 1,000,000
shares of Common Stock, par value $2.50 per share (the "Common
Stock"), for issuance under the US Sprint Communications Company
Stock Option Plan (the "Plan"). In December, 1989, there was a
two-for-one split of the Common Stock. Options granted under the
Plan for 260,317 shares of Common Stock have been exercised. No
options are outstanding and no additional options will be granted
under the Plan. Therefore, the Registration Statement is amended
to deregister the remaining shares of Common Stock registered
for sale under the Plan.
