                              RUSSELL CORPORATION
              Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements





1.    In the opinion of Management, the accompanying audited and unaudited
      consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments
      (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present
      fairly the financial position as of July 2, 1995, and December 31, 1994,
      and the results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six week
      periods ended July 2, 1995, and July 3, 1994, and cash flows for the
      twenty-six week periods ended July 2, 1995, and July 3, 1994.

      The accounting policies followed by the Company are set forth in Note A
      to the Company's consolidated financial statements incorporated by
      reference in Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 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.

      Deferred income taxes reflect the net tax effects of temporary
      differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for
      financial reporting purposes and the carrying amounts for income tax
      purposes.  At January 3, 1993, deferred tax liabilities totaling
      approximately $58 million consisted primarily of tax depreciation in
      excess of book depreciation.  Deferred tax assets of approximately $9
      million consisted of basis differences in inventories, retirement
      benefits and bad debt accruals.

3.    The results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended
      July 2, 1995, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be
      expected for the full year.

     Sales increases for the second quarter and first half of 1995 reflected
strong worldwide demand for the Company's activewear products.  International
sales grew 37% in the second quarter and 41% during the first half.

     Gross margins were impacted in the second quarter principally by
competitive pricing pressures in the imprintable T-shirt market and by higher
raw material costs, primarily cotton and polyester.  Also, higher outside
contracting costs were incurred in order to meet demand.

     During the first half, the Company experienced less than planned sales and
earnings in the Russell Athletic and Licensed Products Divisions.  The
lingering effects of the baseball strike and general weakening in demand for
licensed sports apparel have unfavorably impacted the Company's licensed
apparel business.

     Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 10% in the quarter,
but remained constant as a percentage of sales.  Interest expense increased
primarily from higher short-term borrowing rates.  Other income was derived
mainly from interest, rental income and the disposition of certain fixed
assets.  The effective tax rate in the second quarter declined from 38.0% to
35.3% as the Company's international profitability improved.

FINANCIAL CONDITION

     The Company's financial condition remained strong.  Long-term debt to
total capitalization increased from 20.6% to 25.2% as a result of a $75 million
long-term financing which the Company completed during the quarter with a
commercial bank.  Proceeds were used to reduce short-term debt.  At
quarter-end, the Company maintained $209 million in informal lines of credit.

     The statement of cash flows reflects that $28,514,000 was invested in the
capital program during the first half of 1995.  Capital expenditures, working
capital needs, dividends and treasury stock purchases were met with internally
generated funds, short-term bank loans and long-term borrowings.  Inventory
levels were up 12% over last year and are positioned for forecasted higher
shipments in the third quarter.  Accounts receivable also grew 12% and were
basically in-line with sales growth.

     The Company utilizes interest rate swaps to change the characteristics of
certain debt.  Previous to this quarter, the Company had an outstanding
agreement that effectively converted $75,000,000 of long-term debt from a fixed
rate to a floating rate basis.  Additionally, an agreement was entered into in
the second quarter, converting the most recent $75,000,000 long-term borrowing
from a floating rate to a fixed rate of 6.67%.

     The Company utilizes cotton futures contracts to set sales prices which
are generally set six months to a year in advance of the selling season.
Depending upon market conditions, futures may be purchased to cover the
Company's cotton requirements, generally, at the time that prices are set.
Purchasing futures not only reduces the risks of adverse price fluctuations,
but also limits the Company's ability to benefit from positive price
fluctuations over the terms of the agreements.

     In anticipation of higher cotton prices in 1995, the Company purchased
futures contracts to cover its cotton requirements.  Cotton prices rose in the
second quarter of 1995 and the aforementioned futures favorably mitigated some
cotton prices for this period.

     The carrying value of goodwill is reviewed by management when facts and
circumstances suggest that it may be impaired.  Should this review indicate
that goodwill will not be recoverable, based upon undiscounted cash flows of
the entity, the Company's carrying value of the goodwill is reduced by the
estimated shortfalls of the cash flows.
