                               (continued)

The purchase price for the assets, which includes inventory,
equipment and other physical property, was $3,750,000, subject to a
final valuation of said assets as of the closing date.  The
transaction was partially financed pursuant to a bridge loan in the
amount of $500,000 from the Company's primary lender in anticipation
of a term loan and revolving credit facility which will replace the
bridge loan.  The bridge loan is secured with a mortgage on the
Company's corporate facility.
     Had the acquisition been made on January 1, 1995 (unaudited)
proforma sales, loss and loss per share from continuing operations
would have been $13,711,000 , $(99,000)and $(.02) per share
respectively, for the three month period ended March 31, 1995.

(NOTE 5) - Available-For-Sale Securities:

     On December 31, 1995 the Company transferred its marketable
securities to the available for sale category of investments. 
Avaiable-for-sale securities are carried at fair value, with the
unrealized gains and losses, net of income taxes, reported as a
seperate component of stockholders' equity.  The cost of marketable
securities was determined by the specific identification method.
     Under the terms of certain credit facilities the Company's
investment portfolio and certain cash balances must be maintained at
a minimum collateral value.  On March 31, 1996, this collateral
requirement amounted to approximately $7,083,000 of marketable
securities and $273,000 of cash and cash equivalents.
     The following is a summary of available-for-sale securities as

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

Liquidity, Capital Resources and Inflation:

     Working capital decreased by $1,961,000 to a working capital
deficiency of $2,081,000 during the three month period ended March
31, 1996 from the year ended December 31, 1995 principally due to a
net loss of $772,000 incurred by the Company during the quarter and
to approximately $1,075,000 related to the acquisition of Behlman
which was allocated to goodwill.  The Company's working capital ratio
at March 31, 1996 was .9 to 1 compared to 1.0 to 1 at December 31,
1995.

     In July 1993, the Company's East/West Division ("East/West")
entered into a Restated and Amended Factoring Agreement with its
primary lender.  Advances by the factor prior to the maturity date of
receivables sold bear interest at a rate of prime plus 1.50%.  As
security for its obligations under such amended facility, the Company
pledged approximately $6,150,000 of its marketable securities.  In
March 1996, the Company used approximately $1,500,000 of such
marketable securities to reduce the amount owed under the facility.

     In September 1994, East End Apparel Group, Ltd. ("East End")
entered into a Factoring Agreement with BNY Financial Corporation
("BNY") under the same terms and conditions as East/West.  The
facility is guaranteed by the Company and as security for its
obligations under such facility, the Company pledged approximately 
$2,500,000 of its marketable securities.  Between January and April
1996, the Company used approximately all of such marketable
securities to reduce the amount owed under the facility.

     In August 1995, the Company's Canadian Apparel Segment entered
into a new factoring arrangement with a subsidiary of BNY.  The new
arrangement provides the Segment with a C$7,000,000 line of credit
and bears interest at prime plus .75%.  As security for its
obligations under this facility, the Company has provided the lender
with a C$3,000,000 standby letter of credit.

     In February 1996, the Company, through a wholly owned
subsidiary, purchased from Astrosystems, Inc. substantially all of
the assets of its wholly owned subsidiary, Behlman and substantially
all of the assets of its Military Electronics Division.  The purchase
price of  $3,750,000 was substantially funded by the Company's cash
and a $500,000 bridge loan from BNY.  The Company is currently
negotiating a $4,000,000 term loan and revolving credit facility with
BNY, which it expects to complete during the second quarter of 1996. 
The proceeds will be used to replace the bridge loan and to provide
working capital for the Company's Electronics Segment.  



     In March 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with the
sellers of East/West whereby the purchase price for the assets under
the asset purchase agreement dated July 1993 (the "Asset Purchase
Agreement") was reduced from $15,000,000 to $8,850,000 plus other
consideration.  Accordingly, the $8,000,000 promissory note to the
sellers was reduced to $1,850,000.  The amended note is payable as
follows: (i) $500,000 paid upon the execution of the agreement, (ii)
two $250,000 installments due July 1, 1996 and January 1, 1997,
respectively and (iii) $850,000 payable in quarterly installments
over a five year period commencing March 31, 2002.

     Assuming the completion of the $4,000,000 term loan and
revolving credit agreement with BNY, the Company's existing capital
resources (including its bank credit facilities) and its cash flow
from operations are expected to be adequate to cover the Company's
cash requirements for the foreseeable future.

     Inflation has not materially impacted the operations of the
Company.

Results of Operations:

     Consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 1996
decreased to $7,197,000 from $10,888,000 from the prior period due
principally to decreased revenues from each of its business segments
and, in particular, its U.S. Apparel Segment due to a decrease in
sales at East/West and East End.

     The net loss for the three months ended March 31, 1996 increased
to $772,000 from $313,000 from the prior year due principally to
decreased earnings from the Company's Electronics division due to a
decrease in sales from the prior period and to start up costs
associated with its new Behlman subsidiary.  This increased loss was
partially offset by a decrease in operating losses at the Company's
Apparel Segments.

     Revenues for the United States Apparel Segment for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 decreased to $2,898,000 from $5,082,000
from the comparable period of the prior year due  principally to
reduced revenues at East/West and East End.  Despite the reduction in
revenues during the period, the operating loss for the three month
period ended March 31, 1996 decreased to $748,000 from $1,185,000
from the comparable period of the prior year due principally to a
reduction in selling, general and administrative expenses.




     Revenues for the Canadian Apparel Segment for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 decreased to $1,418,000 from $1,700,000 from the
comparable period of the prior year due to a decrease in the number
of units shipped during the period.  Despite the reduction in
revenues during the period, the operating loss for the three month
period ended March 31, 1996 decreased to $271,000 from $339,000 from
the comparable period of the prior year due principally to a
reduction in selling, general and administrative costs.

     Revenues for the Electronics Segment for the three months ended
March 31, 1996 decreased to $2,881,000 from $4,106,000 from the
comparable period of the prior year due to a decrease in the number
of units shipped and despite $837,000 of revenues recorded by the
Company's new Behlman subsidiary which was acquired in February 1996. 
Operating income decreased  to $288,000 for the current period from
$1,303,000 from the prior period due principally to a reduction in
sales and one time start up costs associated with the Behlman
acquisition as well as its transition into the Company's
manufacturing facility.

     Consolidated gross profit as a percentage of sales for the three
months ended March 31, 1996 slightly decreased to 26.3% from 26.4%
from the comparable period of the prior year.

     Selling general and administrative expenses for the three months
ended March 31, 1996 decreased to $3,177,000 from $4,119,000 from the
comparable period of the prior year due to a  reduction in overhead
expenses at the Company's Apparel Segments but increased as a
percentage of sales to 44.1% from 37.8% due to a reduction in
revenues in the current period.

     Interest expense decreased for the three months ended March 31,
1996 to $543,000 from $655,000 from the comparable period of the
prior year due principally to i) the pay down of the promissory note
related to the East/West acquisition  ii) the partial paydown of
amounts owed under the factoring agreements of its U.S. Apparel
Segment and  iii) reduced borrowing of the Company's Canadian Apparel
Segment.

     Investment and other income for the three months ended March 31,
1996 decreased to $1,054,000 from $1,584,000 from the comparable
period of the prior year due to insurance proceeds received by the
Company in the prior period resulting from the death of the Company's
former principal officer, a decrease in commission income earned by
the Company's U.S. Apparel Segment and despite the realization of
approximately $800,000 representing the final payment of royalty
income received from Orbit Semiconductor, Inc. pursuant to a Stock
Purchase Agreement signed in November 1991.


     The Company did not record any tax benefit on the current pre-
tax loss because of the uncertainty of future realization.

Certain Material Trends

     Despite continued profitability in 1996, the Company's
Electronic Segment continues to face a difficult business environment
with increasing pressure on the Company's prices for its sole source
sales and a general reduction in the level of funding for the defense
sector.  Based on current delivery schedules and the acquisition of
Behlman, however, revenues for the Electronics Segment should
increase from those levels recorded in the first quarter although
there can be no assurance that such revenues will actually increase.

     The Company's Electronics Segment is continuing to seek new
contracts which require up-front design, engineering, prototype and
preproduction costs.  While the Segment attempts to negotiate
contract awards for reimbursement of product development there is no
assurance that sufficient monies will be set aside by the government
for such effort.  In addition, even if the government agrees to
reimburse development costs, there is still a significant risk of
cost overrun which may not be reimbursable.  Furthermore, once the
Company has completed the design and preproduction stage, there is no
assurance that funding will be provided for future production.

     The Electronics Segment is heavily dependent upon military
spending as a source of revenues and income.  World events have led
the government of the United States to reevaluate the level of
military spending necessary for national security.  Any significant
reductions in the level of military spending by the Federal
Government could have a negative impact on the Electronics Segment's
future revenues and earnings.   The acquisition of Behlman, however,
has given the Company some diversity with its commercial products
subsidiary which is not affected by fluctuations in military
spending.

     In July 1993, the Company acquired the assets of The Panda
Group, Inc., an importer and distributor of women's activewear and
outerwear and in May 1994, started up East End, an importer of
women's outer-wear and sportswear which operation was merged into
East/West in December 1995 and constitutes the Company's United
States Apparel Segment.  A majority of the business of both the
United States and the Canadian Apparel Segment is associated with the
sale of outer-wear.  The third and fourth quarters are generally the
primary selling seasons for outer-wear sales.  Furthermore, where
sales of outer-wear constitutes a significant percentage of such
segment's business, the first and second quarters are historically 
weak periods since its customers do not generally request shipment of
merchandise during this time.

     
     Despite the continued market acceptance of its established
lines, a weakened economy in the United States and Canada could have
an adverse impact on the Apparel Segments' revenues and earnings. 
The Apparel Segments large customers include many of the major
department stores which may be vulnerable in a weakened economy.  In
addition, the financial problems experienced by many retailers has
impacted revenues due to credit concerns of the financial community. 
These factors have contributed to a very weak and uncertain apparel
and retail sector.  These present conditions, if they continue, could
have a negative impact on the business, operating results and
financial condition of the Apparel Segment in future quarters.
