         NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              (Unaudited)


1.   The consolidated condensed financial statements included herein
     have been prepared by the Company, without audit, pursuant to the
     rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. 
     Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in
     financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
     accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to
     such rules and regulations.  While the Company believes that the
     disclosures presented are adequate to make the information not
     misleading, it is suggested that these consolidated condensed
     financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial
     statements and notes included in the Company's most recent annual
     report.

2.   In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying consolidated
     condensed financial statements contain all adjustments necessary
     to present fairly the financial position as of November 30, 1993
     and May 31, 1993, the results of operations for the three months
     and six months ended November 30, 1993 and 1992, and cash flows for
     the six months ended November 30, 1993 and 1992.

3.   The results of operations for the six months ended November 30,
     1993 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected
     for the full year.

4.   The Company's net income and earnings per share for the six months
     ended November 30, 1993 were adversely impacted by one-time tax
     adjustments relating to the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of
     1993, a new tax law enacted on August 10, 1993.  The reported tax
     expense includes one-time charges of approximately $274,000 to
     retroactively apply the new tax rates to January 1, 1993.  This
     one-time charge was partially offset by jobs tax credits of
     $201,000 which the new tax law extended retroactive to June 30,
     1992.  In addition, during the first quarter of 1994, the Company
     adopted SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which
     necessitated the reclassification of certain deferred tax balances
     and resulted in a charge to earnings of approximately $789,000. 
     The effect of these one-time tax adjustments reduced earnings per
     share by $.02 per share.

5.   Stock Options:

  In fiscal year 1993, the Company adopted a new incentive stock option
  plan for officers and key employees which provides for the issuance
  of 2,300,000 shares of common stock.  This plan replaces a similar
  plan adopted in 1983 which expired in June, 1993.  Options may be
  granted at 100% to 110% of the market value of the underlying Common
  Stock on the date of the grant and generally become exercisable at the
  rate of 20% per year commencing five years after grant, so long as the
  holder remains an employee of the Company.

  At May 31, 1993, options as to 1,317,476 shares were outstanding and
  exercisable at prices ranging from $2.67 - $28.75 per share.  On July
  13, 1993, additional options as to 206,250 shares exercisable at
  $26.50 per share were granted under the plan.  During the first
  quarter of fiscal 1994, options as to 101,681 shares were exercised
  ranging in price from $2.67 to $11.17 per share.  During the second
  quarter of fiscal 1994, options as to 22,919 shares were exercised
  ranging in price from $3.46 to $11.17.

  In fiscal year 1991, the Company adopted a stock option plan for the
  non-employee members of its Board of Directors, and granted options
  for 30,000 shares of common stock.  Options were granted at 100% of
  the market value of the underlying Common Stock on the date
  immediately prior to the grant and become exercisable at a rate of 25%
  per year commencing two years after grant, so long as the holder
  remains on the Board of Directors.

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

Results of Operations

Total revenues increased 17% for the three months and six months ended
November 30, 1993 over the same periods in the prior fiscal year.  Net
rental revenue also increased 17% in the three months and six months
ended November 30, 1993, over the same periods in the prior fiscal year. 
Growth in the customer base and price increases in established
operations accounted for a 9% increase in rental revenues and the
remaining 8% was due primarily to acquisitions.  Second quarter revenues
from the sale of uniforms and other direct sale items increased 14% over
the prior year's second quarter.  For the six months ended November 30,
1993, sales increased 13% over the same period in fiscal 1993.  The
increases in revenues from the sale of uniforms and other direct sale
items is attributable to an increase in unit sales and was not
significantly affected by acquisitions.

Pre-tax income increased 17% and 18% for the three months and six months
ended November 30, 1993, respectively, over the same periods in fiscal
1993.  Net income and earnings per share were adversely impacted by one-
time tax adjustments relating to the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act
of 1993, a new tax law enacted on August 10, 1993.  The reported tax
expense for the six months ended November 30, 1993 includes one-time
charges of approximately $274,000 to retroactively apply the new tax
rates to January 1, 1993.  This one-time charge was partially offset by
jobs tax credits of $201,000 which the new tax law extended retroactive
to June 30, 1992.  In addition, during the first quarter of 1994, the
Company adopted SFAS No. 109, Accounting for Income Taxes, which
necessitated the reclassification of certain deferred tax balances and
resulted in a charge to earnings of approximately $789,000.  The effects
of these one-time tax adjustments reduced earnings per share in fiscal
1994 by $.02 per share.

Income from operations, which excludes interest income and interest
expense, as a percent of revenues was 18% for both the second quarter of
fiscal 1994 and 1993.  Year-to-date, this percentage is 17% for both the
six months ended November 30, 1993 and 1992.

Net interest expense (interest expense less interest income) was
$1,307,000 and $2,814,000 for the second quarter and six months ended
November 30, 1993, respectively, compared to $1,436,000 and $2,579,000,
respectively, for the same two periods in the prior fiscal year.  Net
interest expense for the second quarter has decreased primarily due to
an increase in interest income.  Net interest expense has increased for
the six months ended November 30, 1993 over the same period in the prior
fiscal year primarily due to debt associated with the acquisition of
Maryatt Industries in December, 1992.

On November 1, 1993, the Company acquired the Career Apparel Division of
Palm Beach Co., Inc. (Palm Beach).  Palm Beach was a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Plaid Clothing Group headquartered in New York.  The
acquisition of Palm Beach did not have a significant effect on the
second quarter sale of uniforms.

Financial Condition

The Company believes that its capital requirements for operations,
capital improvements, repayment of long-term debt and dividends can be
made from funds on hand and funds generated from operations.
