Item 5.  Other Events

     1.  Press Release. On July 19, 2001, the registrant ("Sprint") announced
its second quarter results for the quarter ending June 30, 2001. The press
release was as follows:

                    SPRINT ANNOUNCES SECOND QUARTER RESULTS

EDITOR'S NOTE: In the second quarter of 2000, the local division transferred a
customer service operation to the PCS Group. Additionally, in the third quarter
of 2000, Sprint changed its transfer pricing for certain transactions between
the local division and the directory publishing business, which mainly had the
effect of reducing local division revenues. The discussion of the local
division's results assumes both events occurred at the beginning of 2000.

The Sprint FON Group (NYSE: FON) is comprised of Sprint's Global Markets
segment, Local Telecommunications Division and product distribution and
directory publishing businesses.

The Sprint PCS Group (NYSE: PCS) consists of Sprint's wireless PCS operations.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., - July 19, 2001 - Sprint today announced record second quarter
consolidated revenues of $6.42 billion, an increase of 10 percent from $5.82
billion a year ago. During the quarter, the PCS Group reported exceptional
operating cash flows (EBITDA) performance and strong customer growth, while
reducing churn, increasing average revenue per customer and maintaining good
cost control. The FON Group's earnings exceeded expectations due to solid
performance in local operations and lower-than-expected losses in the Global
Markets segment. In addition, the FON Group continued to increase bundled sales
of wireless and wireline offerings and expanded its broadband initiative,
opening new domestic Internet centers and deploying additional international
capabilities in Europe and Asia. The PCS Group reported a loss per share from
recurring operations of 26 cents compared to the 33 cent mean analyst estimate
for the quarter and 46 cents a year ago. Second quarter diluted earnings per
share for the FON Group's recurring operations were 33 cents compared to the 28
cent mean analyst estimate for the quarter and 50 cents a year ago.

"Sprint continues to build a strong foundation for future growth in both our
wireless and wireline businesses," said William T. Esrey, chairman and chief
executive officer.  "Even in the face of a sluggish economy and heightened
competition, I'm very optimistic about our future in the higher-growth areas of
wireless, data and broadband services."

SPRINT PCS GROUP HIGHLIGHTS
The PCS Group reported EBITDA of $491 million in the quarter, $480 million above
the same period a year ago excluding nonrecurring items. Excluding $78 million
of quarterly goodwill and intangibles amortization from the 1998
recapitalization of the PCS Group, operating income was a positive $21 million
for the quarter -- the first quarter that the PCS Group has achieved this
milestone.

The Sprint PCS group added more than 1 million customers in the second quarter
including 843,000 direct customers and 220,000 affiliate customers.

                                       2


The PCS Group's total customer base, including resale and affiliate customers,
increased to 12.8 million, up 60 percent from second quarter 2000. The company,
including affiliates, operates the nation's largest 100 percent digital, 100
percent PCS wireless network, which now covers a population of nearly 239
million people or more than 80 percent of the U.S. population based on newly
released 2000 U.S. Census data.

 .  Revenues increased 53 percent to $2.26 billion in the second quarter from
   $1.48 billion during the same quarter a year ago.
 .  Monthly average revenue per user (ARPU) for the quarter was $61. In the
   quarter, we began reporting contract cancellation fees on a net basis,
   reducing reported ARPU by about $2 in the quarter. Had we restated prior
   periods' measures, second quarter 2001 ARPU would have been $62, compared to
   $59 in both the last and year ago quarters. Previous reporting would have
   shown that ARPU was $63, compared to $60 last quarter and $59 a year ago.
 .  Average monthly operating cash cost per user (CCPU) for the quarter was $32.
   Again, reporting contract cancellation fees on a net basis reduced reported
   CCPU by about $2 in the quarter. Had we restated prior periods' measures,
   second quarter 2001 CCPU would have been $33 in both the 2001 second and
   first quarters, compared to $35 a year ago. Previous reporting would have
   shown CCPU was $34, consistent with last quarter's $34 and better than $35 a
   year ago.
 .  The average cost to acquire a customer was approximately $340 in the quarter
   compared to $350 during the same period last year.
 .  Sprint PCS increased its business customer base by 62 percent compared to the
   second quarter 2000. Continuing to fuel this strong growth was the Sprint PCS
   Wireless Web for Business, a full suite of wireless products and services
   offering wireless access to enterprise content and applications via Internet-
   ready Sprint PCS phones. At the end of the quarter, Sprint PCS reported more
   than 17,000 centrally managed business customers nationwide.
 .  Capital expenditures were $1.06 billion for the quarter, reflecting continued
   network capacity expansion and development of new service capabilities.


"Sprint PCS has delivered stellar financial results, achieved strong subscriber
gains and continued to deliver excellent clarity, coverage, connectivity and
value for customers," Esrey said.

Esrey added that Sprint PCS is ideally positioned to be the U.S. wireless
industry leader in deployment of high-speed, third-generation (3G) services.
Unlike its wireless competitors, Sprint PCS believes it has adequate spectrum
for a seamless transition to 3G, and offers the most cost-efficient path to the
faster services, attributable to CDMA technology in 100 percent of its network.


"Sprint expects to provide its customers with high-speed 3G data rates that will
change the way people traditionally use wireless services," Esrey said.  "With
3G, customers with Sprint phones and other devices are expected to be able to
take advantage of advanced mobile applications such as e-mail attachments,
downloadable photos and streaming audio and video."

                                       3


During the quarter, the PCS Group reached major milestones in its aggressive
plans to bring high-speed 3G services to customers nationwide.  Sprint announced
separate multi-year deals with Lucent Technologies and Nortel Networks for
deployment of enhanced wireless network equipment and professional services.

Also in the quarter, Sprint and Lucent completed the fastest-ever 3G over-the-
air data call for a U.S. mobile wireless carrier, at speeds of up to 2.4 mbps.

Additionally in the second quarter, Sprint PCS was named #1 in Customer Services
by Smart Money magazine.  Also, Sprint announced nationwide availability of
voice-enabled web services through Sprint PCS Voice Command.  The services allow
Sprint PCS customers to listen and respond to e-mail and access news, stocks,
traffic reports and other services just by pressing *TALK and speaking into any
Sprint PCS Phone.


SPRINT FON GROUP HIGHLIGHTS
 .  Second quarter revenues of $4.31 billion declined 3 percent compared to $4.45
   billion in the same period a year ago.
 .  Net income was $290 million in the quarter compared to $443 million a year
   ago, excluding 2000 second quarter costs associated with the terminated
   WorldCom merger and a nonrecurring gain on a sale of an independent directory
   publishing operation.
 .  Second quarter diluted earnings per share from recurring operations were 33
   cents compared to 50 cents a year ago.
 .  Excluding the nonrecurring items, FON Group operating income in the quarter
   was $488 million compared to $754 million a year ago.
 .  Operating cash flows in the quarter were $1.10 billion, compared to $1.31
   billion in the second quarter a year ago, excluding nonrecurring items.

Local Telecommunications Division
 .  Revenues were up 3 percent for the quarter to $1.55 billion from $1.51
   billion a year ago.
 .  Operating income rose 5 percent in the quarter to $466 million from $443
   million a year ago.
 .  Voice grade equivalent lines grew 17 percent from the second quarter a year
   ago. The number of access lines increased 1 percent over the past 12 months
   and declined nearly 1 percent in the second quarter compared to the first
   quarter of 2001.
 .  Operating cash flows in the quarter increased 2 percent to $741 million from
   $726 million in the previous second quarter.

Global Markets
 .  Revenues in the Global Markets segment for the quarter were down nearly 5
   percent from a year ago due to lower long distance voice revenues and reduced
   sales of network management services and customer premise equipment. These
   declines were partially offset by growth in Internet Protocol (IP) and
   enterprise data services. Second quarter revenues were $2.56 billion compared
   to $2.69 billion a year ago.
 .  Operating income declined in the quarter primarily due to lower long distance
   margins and increased bad debt expense combined with incremental dilution
   from Sprint ION(R), broadband fixed wireless activities and other growth
   initiatives. Second quarter operating loss was $47 million compared to
   operating income of $240 million a year ago.
 .  Operating cash flows in the second quarter were $287 million compared to $507
   million a year ago.
 .  Long distance calling volumes rose 18 percent for the quarter compared to
   last year.

                                       4


Product Distribution and Directory Publishing
 .  Revenues grew 1 percent to $474 million in the second quarter from $471
   million a year ago. Non-affiliate revenues, which accounted for about 58
   percent of total revenues, declined by 8 percent reflecting a telecom
   industry slowdown in capital spending.
 .  Operating income increased 16 percent to $79 million in the second quarter
   from $68 million a year ago.
 .  Operating cash flows grew nearly 17 percent to $84 million in the second
   quarter from $72 million a year ago.

"We continue to expand our broadband capabilities domestically and around the
globe, and we continue to build on Sprint's heritage of innovation by developing
and refining data capabilities and products designed for the next generation of
communications customers," Esrey said. "With the FON Group's enviable set of
assets, history of technological leadership and high degree of marketing
expertise, I remain confident about the FON Group's ability to perform in
today's highly-competitive marketplace," Esrey said.

The Local Telecommunications Division delivered solid results, largely driven by
increased dedicated access service revenues and growth in bundled sales. The
increase in bundled sales contributed to an increase in the sale of add-on
services such as Caller ID. Very strong expense control also enabled the
division to achieve solid operating income growth in the quarter.

The local division's revenues from data services for the quarter increased 28
percent from a year ago and accounted for 78 percent of the division's total
revenue growth.

The division sold over 400,000 consumer and business bundles during the quarter,
which contributed to an increased penetration of Sprint's long distance and
wireless services in the local territories.  Nearly 43 percent of Sprint's local
residential lines and 36 percent of its business lines now use Sprint long
distance services. Increased bundle sales in the residential market continued to
boost penetration of vertical services such as Caller ID, call waiting and
voicemail services.  The division also sold approximately 24,000 bundles of
local and Sprint PCS wireless service during the quarter.

The local division continued to expand its broadband footprint in the quarter,
installing over 7,000 new DSL lines and increasing the local division's total
number of DSL lines to over 35,000.   DSL revenue per user for the quarter was
$57, a $2 increase sequentially.

In Global Markets, the long distance market proved once again to be highly
competitive. Total voice revenues declined 5 percent in the quarter compared to
a year ago. Business voice revenues continue to be impacted by aggressive market
pricing. In the quarter, Sprint continued to increase sales of current-
generation data services in spite of a sluggish economy and a competitive price
environment. Sprint reported particularly strong results from asynchronous
transfer mode (ATM) services. During the quarter, overall data revenue grew 6
percent compared to a year ago.

                                       5


During the quarter, dedicated IP service revenues grew just over 30 percent
compared to the same period last year and increased 12 percent sequentially.
Overall, Internet revenues for the quarter grew 11 percent compared to the same
period last year.  To support future Internet revenue growth, Sprint recently
opened a state-of-the-art Sprint E|Solutions Internet Center in Dallas-Fort
Worth to offer customers application and Web-hosting support, collocation, and
IT professional services.  The new center joined similar facilities in
Sacramento, Reston, Kansas City, New York and Boston.   The company plans to
open additional Internet centers in 4 more markets by the end of 2001.

During the quarter, Sprint signed an applications hosting agreement with
BroadVision(R), Inc., designed to bring together Sprint's Internet Center
capabilities with BroadVision's experience in delivering personalized, e-
business application solutions.   Sprint also was commissioned by the state of
Texas to complete the nation's first-ever, comprehensive information technology
security assessment for the state.

Sprint's Tier 1 Internet backbone continued to expand internationally during the
quarter, with IP nodes deployed in Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Frankfurt,
Sydney, Stockholm, Copenhagen, and Tokyo.  Sprint expects to ultimately connect
15 cities in 13 major European and Asian countries by the end of 2001 and 35
cities in 19 countries by the end of 2003.  The international deployment will
provide multinational companies, ISPs and other communications companies with
direct access to Sprint's data network and broad portfolio of advanced products
and services.

Sprint Broadband Direct currently serves 13 residential and 14 small business
markets and has over 40,000 customers.  Sprint Broadband Direct customers also
are aggressively purchasing other Sprint products with over 35 percent of new
customers choosing to bundle their data product with Sprint long distance
services.   Finally, Sprint recently completed the first phase of trial testing
for next-generation technology related to Sprint Broadband Direct. Next-
generation technology is expected to not only lower our cost structure, but also
increase capacity and reduce line of sight issues.  We expect to be able to
leverage our own network of PCS towers in this endeavor and improve our
opportunity for growth and selling bundled services.

Business Outlook
The following statements are based on current expectations. These statements are
forward-looking, and actual results may differ materially.

Sprint continues to expect that PCS Group net customer additions for the year
could be around 3.8 million. At this level, Sprint would expect that a
corresponding EBITDA level would be around $1.7 billion, which is about $100
million above our previous expectation.  In the third quarter Sprint expects the
PCS Group to achieve EBITDA in the low $500 million range.  Sprint continues to
expect that full year capital expenditures for the PCS Group will be
approximately $3.4 billion.

Sprint expects that total FON Group revenues will decline by 1-2% in the third
quarter compared to the same period last year. In the third quarter, Sprint
expects that FON Group earnings could approach 30 cents per share. Sprint
continues to expect that full year FON Group capital expenditures will be
approximately $5.9 billion although this level will likely be influenced by any
revisions to our plans for broadband initiatives. Sprint expects to provide an
update on its plans and expectations for Sprint ION in the late summer to early
fall timeframe.
