               NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.  Basis of presentation:

     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for
interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01
of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Accordingly, they
do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally
accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.  In the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring
accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the 39 weeks ended September 2, 1995 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may  be expected for the entire year ended
December 2, 1995. The balance sheet at December 3, 1994 has been derived from
the audited balance sheet at that date.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 3, 1994.




2.   Cash and cash equivalents consist of the following (in thousands):

3.   Investment Securities:

     Due to certain changes in management's investment philosophy during the
quarter ended June 3, 1995, the Company has transferred investment securities
from the held-to-maturity to the available-for-sale category.  The effect of
this change was to increase stockholders' equity by $167,000, representing the
net unrealized holding gain on these securities, net of taxes at the date of
the change.

 4.  Inventories:

     The Company's inventories are valued at the lower of cost  or market.
Cost is determined principally by the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method with the
remainder being determined by  the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method.  Because
the inventory  valuation under the LIFO method is based upon an annual
determination of inventory levels and costs as of the fiscal year-end, the
interim LIFO calculations are based on management's estimates of expected
year-end inventory levels and costs.

                    September 2, 1995          December 3, 1994

5.  Stockholders' Equity:

     Employee Stock Ownership Plan:

      The fourth of 15 equal annual principal installments of $790,000 plus
interest at prime was paid by the ESOP to the Company on August 1, 1995. The
balance on the ESOP indebtedness of $8,697,000 is reflected as a reduction of
the Company's Stockholders' Equity in the consolidated balance sheet.

<PAGE>
                     MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                  FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


Results of Operations
Third Quarter
1995 Compared to 1994

     Net sales for the third quarter of 1995 were $44,879,000 as
compared to  $47,595,000 in 1994, a decrease of 5.7%.  Except for
sales of leisurewear products, which experienced strong customer
demand, general textile business conditions continued at a
sluggish pace during the quarter as a result of weak apparel
sales at the retail level. 
     For the nine months period ended September 2, 1995, net
sales were $134,630,000, a decline of $3,282,000, or 2.4%.  The
decline reflected an industry wide slowdown in demand for knit
fabrics as a result of weak consumer purchasing of apparel at the
national retail level as well as highly competitive market
conditions.
     Gross profit for the quarter declined to 14.2% from 19.5%
last year.  A less favorable product mix, increases in raw
material prices, and highly competitive market conditions have
all exerted downward pressures on profit margins.  Plant
operations were  adversely impacted by both the current product
mix as well as below normal seasonal operating rates at
manufacturing facilities.  In addition, because of higher unit
inventory costs resulting from raw material price increases, LIFO
inventory reserves for the three months rose by $400,000 as
compared to an increase of $100,000 in 1994.
     Gross profit percentages for the nine months period were
15.4% as compared to 19.3% in 1994.  Increases in the costs of
raw materials (primarily fiber prices), reduced operating
schedules at manufacturing plants as well as a less profitable
mix exerted unfavorable pressures on profit margins.  Competitive
market conditions have delayed the pass-through of these higher
costs to customers.  Furthermore, higher unit material costs
resulted in an increase in LIFO inventory reserves during the
nine months (and a corresponding charge to earnings) of $700,000
as compared to an increase in the 1994 period of $300,000.
     Selling, general and administrative expenses in the current
quarter increased by $341,000, or 8.0%, and as a percentage of
sales to 10.2% from 8.9%.  The increase relates to lower sales
volume as well as to the fixed- cost nature of payroll and
related expenses.
     Interest and dividend income increased by 22.2% in the
quarter to $1,009,000 as against $826,000, as higher comparative
returns more than offset lower average available investment
balances.
     The Company had realized gains from the sale of marketable
securities in the quarter of $24,000 as compared to losses of
$128,000 in 1994.  For the nine months, the Company reported
realized gains of $491,000 as against losses of $631,000 (mainly
unrealized) in the similar 1994 period.  
     As a result of these aforementioned factors, quarterly net
income declined to $1,919,000, or 4.3% of sales, from $3,841,000,
or 8.1% of sales.  Earnings per share, which are based upon the
weighted average number of shares outstanding (5,974,898 vs.
6,196,414), were $0.32 as compared to $0.62.  There was no stock
option related dilution in either comparative quarter.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
     The Company's principal source of funds is expected to be
cash flow generated from operations.  Net cash provided by
operating activities for the 39 weeks ended September 2, 1995,
amounted to $6,712,000 whereas such activities provided cash of
$11,252,000 in the comparative 1994 period.  Of this decrease,
$1,975,000 related to a comparative decline in accounts payable
and $3,201,000 to lower net income.
     Capital expenditures for the nine months were $3,918,000 as
against $5,723,000 in the 1994 comparable period.  The Company
purchased additional high speed knitting machines to increase
manufacturing efficiencies and reduce unit costs and also
installed energy conservation related equipment in its production
facilities.
     During the first nine months of fiscal 1995, the Company
repurchased 138,023 shares of its Common Stock at a cost of
$4,315,000  (an average price of $31.26).  The Company intends to
continue to purchase its shares of Common Stock from time-to-time
as market conditions warrant and price criteria are met.
     The Company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.175
per share (up from $0.16 per share per quarter last year),
payable October 23, 1995, to stockholders of record as of
September 1, 1995.
     Stockholders' equity was $131,445,000, or $22.18 per share,
from $129,533,000, or $21.52 per share, at the previous year-end
December 3, 1994.
     Management believes that the current financial position of
the Company is adequate to internally fund any future
expenditures to maintain, modernize and expand its manufacturing
facilities, pay dividends and make acquisitions of textile
related businesses if criteria relating to indebtedness, market
penetration and existing management are met.
