ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS.
On June 6, 1995, the Registrant amended its By-Laws. The complete text
of the By-Laws, as amended, is included as Exhibit 3.
In addition, a form of Underwriting Agreement is filed herewith in
connection with a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 33-60059) filed
by the Registrant on June 7, 1995. The form of Underwriting Agreement refers
specifically to the Registrant's sale of Notes pursuant to a Preliminary
Prospectus Supplement and Prospectus, each dated June 13, 1995, filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) under the Securities Act of 1933.
On June 1, 1995 the Registrant issued a press release containing sales
information for the month ended May 27, 1995. As set forth in the press
release, while consolidated sales increased 8% over the same period in 1994,
consolidated comparable store sales decreased 2% from last year's level. The
difficult U.S. apparel environment experienced in the first quarter of 1995,
which contributed to a 2% decrease in consolidated comparable store sales and a
decline in net income from the first quarter of 1994, continued into the
Registrant's second quarter.
