                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
              QUARTERS ENDED FEBRUARY 28,AUGUST 29, 1997 AND MARCH 1,AUGUST 30, 1996
                                 (UNAUDITED)

1.         The foregoing unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect
   all  adjustments which are, in the opinion of management,  necessary
   to  a  fair  statement of the results for the interim periods.   All
   such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.  The results  for
   interim  periods  are not necessarily indicative of  results  to  be
   expected for the year.

2.         The financial information presented herein should be read in
   conjunction  with the consolidated financial statements included  in
   the  Registrant's  Annual Report on Form 10-K for  the  fiscal  year
   ended May 31, 1996.30, 1997.

3.    The  Company  is  involved  in certain  legal  matters  primarily
   arising  in  the  normal  course of business.   In  the  opinion  of
   management,  the  Company's liability under  any  of  these  matters
   would  not  materially affect its financial condition or results  of
   operations.

4.       In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
   Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS No. 128) "Earnings
   per  Share." The new standard simplifies the computation of earnings
   per   share  (EPS)  and  increases  comparability  to  international
   standards.   Under SFAS No. 128, primary EPS is replaced by  "Basic"
   EPS,  which  excludes dilution and is computed  by  dividing  income
   available  to common stockholders by the weighted-average number  of
   common  shares outstanding for the period. "Diluted" EPS,  which  is
   computed  similarly  to  fully diluted EPS, reflects  the  potential
   dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to  issue
   common stock were exercised or converted to common stock.

   The  Company  is required to adopt the new standard in its  year-end
   1998   financial  statements.   All  prior  period  EPS  information
   (including  interim EPS) is required to be restated  at  that  time.
   Early  adoption is not permitted.  Pro forma EPS, as if the  Company
   adopted SFAS No. 128 for each period presented are as follows:
     
                             For the quarters ended
                      August 29, 1997  August 30, 1996
       Basic EPS        $0.61             $0.40
       Diluted EPS      $0.61             $0.40

and/or has available borrowing capacity to meet its foreseeable
needs.  The sources of funds primarily include funds provided by
operations and both short-short-term and long-term borrowings.  The
uses of funds primarily include working capital requirements,
capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividends and repayment of
short-term and long-term debt.  The Company regularly utilizes
committed bank lines of credit and other uncommitted bank
resources to meet working capital requirements.  On February 28,August 29,
1997, the Company had available for its use committed
lines of credit with
several lenders aggregating $52,000,000, of which
$40,000,000 is long-term.$52,000,000.  The Company payshas agreed

during the first ninethree months of the current year were
$96,000,000$84,500,000 of which $56,000,000$44,500,000 was short-term.  The Company
anticipates continued use and availability of both committed and
uncommitted resources as working capital needs may require.

     The Company considers possible acquisitions of apparel-
related businesses that are compatible with its long-term
strategies.  The Company's Board of Directors has authorized the
Company to purchase shares of the Company's common stock on the
open market and in negotiated trades as conditions and
opportunities warrant.  There are no present plans to sell
