NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Thousands)
1. The statements for the three months ended April 26,
1997 and April 27, 1996 are unaudited; in the opinion
of the Company such unaudited statements include all
adjustments (which comprise only normal recurring
accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the
results of such periods. The consolidated financial
statements for the year ended January 31, 1998 are
subject to adjustment at the end of the year when they
will be audited by independent auditors. The results
of operations for the three months ended April 26, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results of
operations to be expected for the year ending January
31, 1998. The consolidated financial statements and
notes for the year ended in January 1997 and 1996
included in the Company's January 25, 1997 Annual
Report to the Securities and Exchange Commission on
Form 10-K.
2. On February 12, 1997, the Company sold its Camden Wire
Co., Inc. (Camden) subsidiary to International Wire
Group, Inc. for $43,500 in cash. The sale resulted in
an after tax gain of $2,566 (net of applicable income
taxes of $3,616) or $0.23 per share. Operating losses
for the fourth quarter of 1996 and the first quarter of
1997 totalling $1,200 were deducted from the gain for
financial statement purposes. Camden contributed net
sales of $36,425 and net income of $147 in the first
quarter of 1996.
3. On November 4, 1996, the Company purchased the net
assets of THC Systems, Inc. (Rego China), a leading
importer of institutional china for the foodservice
industry. The financial statements include the results
of operations of Rego China for the current quarter.
On a proforma basis, assuming the acquisition had
occurred at the beginning of fiscal 1996 and based on
unaudited amounts for Rego China, the consolidated
results of operations for the Company for the quarter
ended April 27, 1996 would have been:
Net sales...............................$91,959
Net income.............................. 2,633
Net income per share of common stock ... 0.24
4. The provision for income taxes is based on pre-tax
income for financial statement purposes with an
appropriate deferred tax provision to give effect to
changes in temporary differences between the financial
statements and tax basis of assets and liabilities.
The temporary differences arise principally from
postretirement benefits, depreciation and other
employee benefits.

5. Earnings per share are based on the weighted average
number of shares of common stock outstanding. The
weighted average number of shares for earnings per
share includes the potentially dilutive effect of
shares issuable under the employee stock purchase and
stock option plans. The shares owned by the Company's
employee stock ownership plan are treated as
outstanding for purposes of the earnings per share
calculation only to the extent they have been
allocated. No fully diluted earnings per share are
presented as the difference between primary and fully
diluted earnings per share is not significant.
6. Included in the long-term debt caption on the balance
sheet are various senior notes. The note agreements
relating thereto contain provisions which restrict
borrowings, business investments, acquisition of the
Company's stock and payment of cash dividends. At April 26,
1997, the maximum amount available for payment of dividends
was $9,819.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Quarter ended April 26, 1997 compared with
the quarter ended April 27, 1996
(In Thousands)
Operations
Consolidated net sales, for the quarter ended April 26, 1997
increased $14,087, over the same quarter a year ago.
Net Sales 1997 1996 % Change
-------- -------- --------
North America - Consumer.............. $49,545 $46,018 7.7%
- Foodservice........... 41,234 31,874 29.4%
Other Foreign Operations.............. 6,198 4,998 24.0%
Total................................. $96,977 $82,890 17.0%
Sales of product throughout North America increased by
$3,227. Consumer sales continue to increase in both the
traditional department store and mass merchandise markets.
Foodservice sales were strengthened primarily by the
Company's recent acquisition of Rego China. Sales were up
significantly at the Company's United Kingdom and Italian
operations, as well as at the domestic Export Sales
Division.
Gross margin, as a percentage of net sales, was equal to
36.5% for the first quarter of 1997 and 33.5% for the same
period of 1996, primarily as a result of selling higher
margin products in all market segments.
Operating Expenses 1997 1996 % Change
-------- -------- --------
Selling, advertising and distribution. $17,604 $16,313 7.9%
General and administrative............ 8,686 5,983 45.2%
Total................................. 26,290 22,296 17.9%
Total operating expenses increased by $3,994 from the same
quarter last year. The majority of the selling expense
increase was due to the addition of Rego China. The
remainder reflects costs associated with the higher overall
volume of sales. As a percent of total sales, selling
expenses declined to 18.2% from 19.7% in the prior year.
The increase in administrative costs is attributable to the
amortization of intangibles associated with the purchase of
Rego and higher employee profit sharing accruals.
Interest expense, prior to capitalized interest, was $1,768
for the quarter, an increase of $93 from the first quarter
of the 1996. This increase is due to higher average
borrowing rates in 1997.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Quarter ended April 26, 1997 compared with
the quarter ended April 27, 1996
(In Thousands)
Liquidity & Financial Resources
During the first three months of this year, the Company
spent approximately $3,600 on capital projects focused
primarily on its manufacturing facilities. The company
expects to invest another $11,000 on similar projects during
the remainder of the current fiscal year. In the first
quarter, the Company repurchased 380,342 shares of common
stock at a cost of $7,458. The Board of Directors, at its
May 28, 1997 meeting, authorized the repurchase of an
additional 500,000 shares. During the first quarter of
1997, the Company completed the sale of its Camden Wire
subsidiary to the International Wire Group, Inc. The
majority of these proceeds were used to pay down the
Company's outstanding debt and to provide a special one time
dividend of $0.13 per share of common stock.
Management believes there is sufficient liquidity to support
the Company's ongoing funding requirements from future
operations as well as the availability of bank lines of
credit. At April 26, 1997, the company had unused credit
lines equal to $70,000 and working capital of $121,489.
