                       MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
                    FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



          Changes in Financial Condition

          Effective  March 10, 1994,  the Company amended  its $150 million
          revolving  credit  facility  to   reduce  the  interest  rate  on
          borrowings, at the Company's  option, to the prime rate  fixed by
          the  First National Bank of Boston, or at a Euromarket-based rate
          plus  1%.   The  amendment  also  extended the  facility  through
          January 6, 1998  and removed the lien on the  Company's plant and
          equipment.   The average interest rate on the revolving term debt
          was 4.71% on March 31, 1994.

          The  Company's debt  (including short-term  borrowings) increased
          $12.7  million during  the first  quarter of  1994.   Inventories
          increased $33.6 million due to normal seasonal inventory build-up
          during  the quarter.   Decreases in accounts  receivable of $17.8
          million and  cash flows from other  operating activities provided
          the  remaining  cash necessary  to  fund  the inventory  build-up
          during the  quarter.   Capital expenditures totaled  $3.3 million
          for the quarter compared to $1.0 million for the first quarter of
          1993.   At  March 31,  1994, approximately  $54.7 million  of the
          Company's $150 million  revolving credit  facility was  available
          and unused.   Capital expenditures  for 1994 are  expected to  be
          approximately  $50 million  compared  to $21.6  million in  1993.
          Included  in the 1994 expenditures is the  start of a $90 million
          capital  project  for  a  new  weaving  plant  at  the  Company's
          Columbus, Ga./Phoenix City, Ala.  towel mill.  It is  anticipated
          that financing of future capital expenditures will be provided by
          cash  flows  from  operations,  borrowings  under  the  Company's
          revolving credit  facility, and, possibly, the  sale of long-term
          debt or equity securities.


          Changes in Results of Operations


          Quarter Ended March 31, 1994 vs. Quarter Ended March 31, 1993

          Net sales  from continuing operations  for the  first quarter  of
          1994  were $232.3 million compared to $203.9 million in the first
          quarter of 1993,  an increase of 14%.  The $28.4 million increase
          includes  $4 million of Caldwell branded towel sales in Canada, a
          line of towels acquired in March 1993.   The increase in revenues
          was due primarily  to increased volume.   Average selling  prices
          were lower in the first quarter of 1994 than in the first quarter
          of 1993 due to continued competitive pressures on selling prices.<PAGE>


          Selling,  general  and  administrative  expenses decreased  as  a
          percentage of sales  from 12.2% to 9.6%  in the first quarter  of
          1994 compared  to the same quarter of 1993.  The decrease was due
          primarily  to reduced  costs resulting  from the  voluntary early
          retirement  program  implemented in  late  1993,  lower bad  debt
          expense and a decrease in other selling expenses.


                                         (6)


          Operating  income as a percentage  of sales increased  to 6.5% in
          the first quarter of 1994 from 5.8% in the first quarter of 1993.
          The improvement  resulted from  the decrease in  selling, general
          and administrative expenses  which more than offset  a decline in
          gross margins.  Continued competitive pressures on selling prices
          caused the lower margins and reduced the benefits of the increase
          in unit sales and the associated higher mill activity levels.

          Interest  expense was $1.7 million  less in the  first quarter of
          1994 due to the reduction of debt with the proceeds from the sale
          of the carpet and rug division  in July 1993 and lower  borrowing
          rates.

          The effective income tax was 39.5% for the first  quarter of 1994
          compared to 38.4% for  the first quarter  of 1993.  The  increase
          results from  the increase  in the federal  statutory income  tax
          rate from  34% to 35% which  was enacted in the  third quarter of
          1993.

          Income  from continuing operations  before accounting changes was
          $5.5 million, or $.51  per common share, in the  first quarter of
          1994 compared to $2.7 million, or  $.22 per common share, in  the
          first quarter of 1993.

          The  Company  adopted   FAS  106,   "Employers'  Accounting   for
          Postretirement  Benefits   other  than  Pensions"  and  FAS  109,
          "Accounting for  Income Taxes", effective  January 1, 1993.   The
          cumulative  effect of  the accounting  changes reduced  the first
          quarter of 1993 net income by  $70.3 million, or $5.86 per common
          share, but had no cash impact.

          Net income  for the first  quarter of 1994  was $5.5 million,  or
          $.51 per common  share, compared to a  loss of $66.6  million, or
          $5.55 per common share, in the first quarter of 1993.<PAGE>
