Item 5: OTHER EVENTS 

     Beginning June 9, 1995, the Company distributed to its banks and other 
lenders, principal trade vendors and factors summaries of its financial plan 
(referred to herein as the "Plan") for the year ending January 27, 1996 (fiscal
1995).  Beginning October 6, 1995, the Company will distribute to its principal
trade vendors and factors revisions to the Plan (the Plan, as so revised, is 
referred to herein as the "Revised Plan") for fiscal 1995. The Revised Plan is 
attached hereto as Exhibit 20 and is incorporated by reference herein.

    The Revised Plan reflects the actual results through August, 1995 and, 
beginning with April 28, 1995, reflects the application of the provisions of 
the American Institute of Certified Public Accountant's Statement of Position 
90-7, "Financial Reporting by Entities in Reorganization under the Bankruptcy 
Code" ("SOP 90-7").  For further discussion of the effect of the application of
SOP 90-7 (sometimes called "Fresh Start Accounting"), see the Company's Quarter-
ly Report on Form 10-Q/A for the quarter ended April 29, 1995.  As a result of 
the application of Fresh Start Accounting the results of operations and changes
in cash flows commencing May 1995 and the balance sheets beginning with April 
1995 are not comparable to the financial information for prior periods.

    The Revised Plan is being reported publicly solely because it is being
distributed to a large number of the Company's principal trade vendors, banks, 
and other lenders and factors to facilitate their credit analyses.  The Revised 
Plan should not be relied upon for any other purpose and should be read in con-
junction with the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended
April 29, 1995 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 29,
1995.  Although the Company is publicly reporting the Plan and its monthly 
results during fiscal 1995,  the Company does not believe it is obligated to 
provide such information indefinitely and may cease making such disclosures and
updates at any time.  Moreover, the Company does not believe that it is obli-
gated to update the Revised Plan to reflect subsequent events or developments.

    The Revised Plan was not prepared with a view toward compliance with guide-
lines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and
may not comply with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange 
Commission regarding financial projections.  While presented with numerical 
specificity, the Revised Plan is based upon a variety of assumptions that may 
not be realized and is subject to significant business, economic and competitive
uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond the Company's control.
Consequently, the Revised Plan should not be regarded as a representation or 
warranty by the Company, or any other person, that the forecasts contained 
therein will be realized.  Actual results may vary materially from those 
presented in the Revised Plan.

    The Company and its bank group have agreed to amend the EBITDA covenants for
the remainder of fiscal 1995 in the Company's $125,000,000 Working Capital 
Facility (the "Facility"). Prior to the amendment, the Facility included one 
quarter/two quarter EBITDA tests for the end of October 1995 and the end of 
January 1996.  These have been replaced by the following year-to-date EBITDA 
covenants:

           Year-to-date through               EBITDA must be not
           the last day of:                   not less than:              

             October 1995                        $  2,800,000
             November 1995                          9,500,000
             December 1995                         20,700,000
             January 1996                          12,000,000
