             Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements





1.  In the opinion of Management, the accompanying audited and unaudited
    consoli dated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
    (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly
    the financial position as of April 3, 1994, and January 1, 1994, and the
    results of operations and cash flows for the thirteen weeks ended April 3,
    1994 and April 4, 1993.

    The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note A
    to the Company's consolidated financial statements in Form 10-K for the year
    ended January 1, 1994.

2.  Effective January 3, 1993, the Company adopted Financial Accounting
    Standards Board Statement 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement
    Benefits Other Than Pensions" and Statement 109, "Accounting for Income
    Taxes".  The effect of the adoption of these standards was not material.

3.  The results of operations for the thirteen weeks ended April 3, 1994,
    are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full
    year.

4.  On April 1, 1994, the Company acquired DeSoto Mills, Inc.  The stock
    transaction, valued at $10 million, results in DeSoto Mills, Inc. becoming a
    wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

Sales increases for the first quarter of 1994 reflect solid demand for
the Company's cotton T-shirts, strong international growth and the effect of the
acquisition of The Game Inc. which occurred on December 23, 1993.  Higher sales
levels were achieved despite pricing promotions initiated during the quarter on
T-shirts by other activewear manufacturers.

Gross margins were impacted by the aforementioned price competition on
T-shirts and by less than optimal plant operating schedules.  Selling, general
and administrative expenses rose primarily as a result of the inclusion of The
Game Inc.  Advertising expense was comparable to that in last year's first
quarter.

Interest expense declined due to slightly lower levels of short-term
debt.  Other income was derived mainly from interest, rental income and the
disposition of certain fixed assets.  The provision for income tax was higher
principally due to the adoption of FASB 109 which reduced the first quarter 1993
provision.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

The Company's financial condition remained strong with long-term debt to
total capitalization of 21.8%.  The statement of cash flows reflects that $7.6
million was invested in the capital program during the first quarter of 1994. 
Capital expenditures, working capital needs, dividends and treasury stock
purchases were met with internally generated funds and short-term bank loans. 
At quarter-end, the Company maintained $238 million in informal lines of credit.

Other assets increased due to goodwill arising from the acquisition of
The Game Inc. and due to the $10 million stock acquisition of DeSoto Mills, Inc.
on April 1, 1994.  DeSoto is one of the top ten sock manufacturers, making
sports and casual socks for men, women and children.  The purchase price of
DeSoto was included in other assets pending allocation of the total purchase
price.

During the quarter, the Company agreed to acquire the trademarks and
licenses of Chalk Line, Inc. for $5.8 million.  This transaction is expected to
close in the second quarter and will add brand names including Chalk Line(R),
Stadium Club(R) and Locker Line(R).

As mentioned in the annual report, the Company placed some of its
operations on reduced work schedules as a result of industry-wide inventory
imbalances.  Based upon the improved outlook for activewear demand, the
Company's plants are now operating at more normal rates.
