Abstract of the Disclosure For a newspaper mill room having a closed-loop track and an endless cart train whose carts are adapted to carry a pair of newpaper bundles for delivery to the exit end of the system, an exit conveyor system is provided which includes a first bundle-spacing section comprising a power-driven roller conveyor disposed parallel to the cart-train track and having drag means for effecting desired spacing between individual bundles, followed by a second bundle-turning section comprising a power-driven off-center belt conveyor parallel to the cart-train track for applying forward pull to the undersurface of only a portion of a received bundle for rotating the bundle about its vertical axis into an angular orientation for delivery into the 90° bend of a gravity exit chute which extends at right angles to the cart-train track. A bundle speed-control device is provided near She bottom of the exit chute comprising retardation gate means for slowing I down the bundle and delivering it at desired speed to a transverse discharge belt conveyor located at the base of the exit chute. The bundle carried by the discharge conveyor encounters a turning post which rotates the bundle through 90° into the desired orientation for discharge to the loading dock or truck.
