Note 4 Acquisitions:
- --------------------

During the first quarter of fiscal 1997 the Company acquired a portion of the
assets of Central Quality Services Corporation headquartered in Farmington
Hills, Michigan for approximately $17 million in cash.  The assets acquired were
primarily industrial uniform routes and production facilities in central and
northern Michigan and eastern Illinois.  The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1997 the Company also acquired American Dust
Control Co., Inc. in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in exchange for Unitog common
stock.  The acquisition was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.  Prior
period financial statements were not restated due to immateriality.

The operating results of these acquisitions have been included in the
consolidated results of the Company since their acquisition with an
insignificant effect on revenues and net earnings.

ITEM 2.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Cash provided by operating activities was $3.1 million for the quarter ended
April 28, 1996, a decrease of $5.3 million or 62% below last year.  The decrease
was principally due to an increase in inventories and reductions in trade
accounts payable and accrued expenses resulting from the timing of certain
acquisition related liabilities and vendor payments.  Cash and cash equivalents
were $932,000 at April 28, 1996.  At April 28, 1996, the Company had $32.5
million in borrowings outstanding under its bank credit facility.  The amount of
borrowings available under the Company's bank credit facility was $17 million at
April 28, 1996.  The Company's capitalization ratio was 54% at April 28, 1996
compared to 49% at January 28, 1996.

Working capital was $45.2 million at April 28, 1996 compared to $37.9 million at
January 28, 1996.  Purchased working capital from rental acquisitions coupled
with reduced acquisition related liabilities and trade payables created the
increase in working capital.  Capital expenditures were $5.3 million through
April 28, 1996, 48% greater than last year.  Capital expenditures for fiscal
1996 are expected to approximate $20 million.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1997, the Company issued $4.5 million in
variable rate tax-exempt Industrial Revenue Bonds which mature in 2020.  The
bonds bear interest at floating rates based upon market conditions for tax-
exempt issues.  The bond proceeds were used to repay bank debt which had been
incurred to finance facility construction.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1997 the Company acquired a portion of the
assets of Central Quality Services Corporation headquartered in Farmington
Hills, Michigan for approximately $17 million in cash.  The assets acquired were
primarily industrial uniform routes and production facilities in central and
northern Michigan and eastern Illinois.  The acquisition was accounted for as a
purchase and the operating results of this acquisition have been included in the
consolidated results of the Company since its purchase with an insignificant
effect on revenues and net earnings.  The acquisition will add approximately $15
million in annual rental revenues.

During the first quarter of fiscal 1997 the Company acquired American Dust
Control Co., Inc. in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in exchange for Unitog common
stock.  The acquisition was accounted for as a pooling-of-interests.  The
operating results of this acquisition have been included in the consolidated
results of the Company since its purchase with an insignificant effect on
revenues and net earnings.  The acquisition will add approximately $3 million in
annual rental revenues.  Prior period financial statements were not restated due
to immateriality.

On May 23, 1995 the Company declared a $.06 per share cash dividend payable on
June 24, 1996 to stockholders of record on June 7, 1996.  The $.06 per share
dividend is 20% greater than the semi-annual dividend paid in the second quarter
of last year.

Management believes that cash generated from operations, and its bank credit
facility will be sufficient to meet its cash requirements for acquisitions and
capital expenditures in the foreseeable future.

                             RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

First quarter fiscal 1997 compared to first quarter fiscal 1996
- ---------------------------------------------------------------

Revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 were $63.9 million, an increase of
$13.3 million or 26% over the comparable period last year. Rental revenues for
the quarter were $48.4 million, an increase of $12.5 million or 35% higher than
last year. The increase in rental revenues was due to our fiscal 1996 and fiscal
1997 acquisitions and internal growth within our network of existing locations.
Direct sales for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 were $15.5 million, an
increase of $882,000 or 6% over the comparable period last year. The increase in
Direct sales was due to new image programs with new and existing customers.

Operating income for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 was $5.8 million, an
increase of $817,000 or 16% over the comparable period last year. Higher
operating contribution from both the Rental and Direct sales businesses created
the improvement over last year.

Depreciation and amortization was $3.7 million, and increase of $1.1 million or
45% over the comparable period last year. Additional depreciation from our
acquired rental operations combined with increased amortization of acquisition
related intangible assets created the increase.

Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 was $1.3 million, an
increase of $713,000 over the comparable period last year. Higher debt levels
related to our fiscal 1996 and fiscal 1997 rental acquisitions created the
increase in interest expense.

Net earnings for the first quarter of fiscal 1997 were $2.8 million, an increase
of $124,000 or 5% over the comparable period last year. Higher revenues and
improved operating contribution from both the Rental and Direct sales business
segments offset increased depreciation, amortization and interest costs in
comparison to last year. Net earnings per common share for the first quarter of
fiscal 1997 were $.29 per share, an increase of $.01 per share or 4% over the
comparable period last year.


                          FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
