Item 5: OTHER EVENTS 

     Beginning July 7, 1995, the Company will distribute to its banks and other
lenders, principal trade vendors and factors, the monthly and year-to-date
financial results and other financial data for the period ended June 3, 1995
(fiscal May), together with projected financial information for similar periods
as contained in the Company's plan for the year ending January 27, 1996 (the
"Plan").  Such financial results are attached hereto as Exhibit 20, and are 
incorporated by reference herein.

     Such financial monthly results and other financial data and information
concerning the Plan are being reported publicly solely because they are being
distributed to a large number of the Company's principal trade vendors, banks,
and other lenders and factors to facilitate their credit analyses. These results
should not be relied upon for any other purpose and should be read in conjunc-
tion with the Company's Form 10-K for fiscal 1994 and Form 10-Q for the first
quarter of 1995.  Although the Company is publicly reporting 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 obligated to update
monthly results to reflect subsequent events or developments.

     For information concerning the Plan, including the limitations thereof and
certain assumptions made in its formulation, reference is made to the Company's
Current Report on Form 8-K, dated June 8, 1995.

Note (1):  The 1995 actual and planned results are for 106 stores.  1994 actual results
           are for 113 stores.
Note (2):  Beginning in May, 1995, the income statements reflect the application of Fresh
           Start accounting as described in the Company's quarterly report on Form 10-Q, 
           dated April 29, 1995, and are therefore not comparable to the periods prior to
           May, 1995.  The Fresh Start accounting reduces depreciation and amortization
           expense by approximately $960 a period. 
Note (3):  The Company believes that it is critical to be in stock on advertised merchandise
           and has significantly improved its in stock position.  This has resulted in higher
           promotional sales; however, this has also resulted in higher promotional markdowns
           with a corresponding decrease in gross margin.
