    Net income per share of common stock is based on the weighted average
    number of shares of common stock outstanding during the quarter.  Common
    stock equivalents have been excluded from the earnings per share
    calculation as no material dilutive effect would result.

    No provision for income tax has been recorded in the Statement of
    Operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996, as taxable income has
    been eliminated as a result of the utilization of net operating loss carry
    forwards.

ITEM II. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS



RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three months and six months ended June 30, 1996, compared to June 30, 1995

    SALES:         Consolidated net sales were $3,873,000 and $3,157,000 for
the three months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, representing an increase of
$716,000 or 22.7%.  Net sales for the Apparel Division for the three months
ended June 30, 1996 were $1,893,000 as compared to $1,097,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1995.  The Apparel Division sales increase of $796,000 or
72.6% was primarily due to increased sales to its largest customer.  Mask and
eye shield sales were $1,404,000 for the second quarter ended June 30, 1996 as
compared to $1,360,000 for the same quarter for 1995.  Mask and eye shield sales
are expected to continue to be relatively flat through 1996.  Sales from the
Company's Unreal Lambskin-Registered Trademark- and other related products
decreased by 17.7% to $576,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 from
$700,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1995.  The Company's Unreal
Lambskin-Registered Trademark- line of products has been updated with an
expectation of increased sales in the future. Consolidated sales were $7,459,000
and $6,716,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1996 and 1995, respectively
representing an increase of 11.1%.  The increase is attributable to an increase
in apparel sales of 60.4%, offset by a decrease in mask and shield products of
4.8% and a decrease in Unreal Lambskin-Registered Trademark- of 25.7%.

    COST OF GOODS SOLD:      Cost of goods sold increased to $2,580,000, for
the three months ended June 30, 1996 from $1,913,000 for the three months ended
June 30, 1995.  As a percentage of net sales, cost of goods sold increased to
66.6% from 60.6%.  For the six months ended June 30, 1996 as compared to 1995,
cost of goods sold increased to $4,879,000 from $4,160,000.  As a percentage of
net sales for the six months, cost of goods sold increased to 65.4% from 61.9%.
Gross profit margin decreased to 34.6% from 38.1% for the six months ended June
30, 1996 and 1995 respectively.  The Company's gross profit margin has been
negatively impacted during the six months ended June 30, 1996 due to costs
incurred to open a new manufacturing facility in Nogales, Mexico which started
operations in January 1996.  The Company expects gross profit to improve as
productivity increases in the new Nogales, Mexico facility.

    SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES:          Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $191,000 to $1,154,000 for the three months
ended June 30, 1996, from $963,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1995.  As
a percentage of net sales, the ratio decreased to 29.8% in the second quarter
1996 from 30.5% in the second quarter 1995.  The increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses is primarily in the areas of the Apparel Division
costs of $71,000; marketing $21,000; public company expenses $19,000 and travel
expenses $30,000.  Although Apparel Division selling, general and administrative
costs increased $71,000, as a percentage of net Apparel Division sales, selling,
general and administrative expenses decreased to 17.5% for the second quarter
1996 compared to 24.4% for the second quarter 1995.  Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased by $345,000 to $2,269,000 for the six months
ended June 30, 1996 from $1,924,000 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  As
a percentage of net sales, the selling, general and administrative expenses
increased to 30.4% in 1996 from 28.6% in 1995.



                                          8

    DEPRECIATION & AMORTIZATION:       Depreciation and amortization expense
decreased by $93,000, to $60,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996 from
$153,000 for the same period in 1995, and decreased by $181,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1996 compared to 1995.  This decrease is primarily
attributable to the 1995 year end decision to write off of the remaining
intangible assets resulting from the acquisition of its wholly-owned subsidiary,
Alpha ProTech, Inc. during the fourth quarter 1995.

    INTEREST:      Interest expense decreased by $57,000, or 49.1%,  to $59,000
for the second quarter 1996 from $116,000 for the second quarter 1995.  Interest
expense decreased by 55.7% for the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to
1995.  These decreases are due to the Company obtaining asset based financing at
lower interest rates effective March 31, 1995, as well as due to $830,000 of
notes payable being converted to common stock during the second quarter 1995.

    INCOME FROM OPERATIONS:  Income from operations decreased by $49,000 to
$79,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, from $128,000 for the three
months ended June 30, 1995.  Income from operations decreased by $140,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 1996 compared to the same period in 1995.  These
decreases are due to an increase in selling, general, administrative expenses
offset by a decrease in depreciation and amortization and a small improvement in
gross profit.

    NET INCOME:    Net Income for the three months ended June 30, 1996 was
$24,000 compared to $6,000 for the three months ended June 30, 1996, an increase
of $18,000.  Net income for the six months ended June 30, 1996 was $70,000
compared to $15,000 for the six months in 1995.  The net income increase of
$55,000 is comprised of a decrease in interest, other expenses and minority
interest of $195,000 offset by decreased income from operations of $140,000.
Net income as a percentage of sales increased to 0.9% in the first six months of
1996 compared to 0.02% in the same period 1995.


    LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES:

As of June 30, 1996 the Company had cash of $824,000 and working capital of
$2,102,000.  The company currently has a secured asset based lender's line of
credit of $3,000,000 based upon the level of eligible accounts receivable,
inventory, and equipment, which expires in March 1998.  At June 30, 1996, the
maximum line of credit available was $1,214,000 for accounts receivable,
inventory, and equipment, of which, $1,066,000 has been used.

Net cash provided by operations was $262,000 for the six months ended June 30,
1996, compared to $928,000 used for operations for the same period in 1995.  The
Company's cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 1996
have been due primarily to decreases in income tax receivable and increases in
accounts payable and accrued liabilities, partially offset by increases in 
accounts receivable, inventories, and other assets.

The Company's investing activities have consisted primarily of expenditures for
fixed assets for the food service business, acquisition of businesses and the
purchase of patents related to the food service business which totalled $248,000
for the six months ended June 30, 1996, and $503,000 for the same period in
1995.

The Company has no significant capital commitments, but currently anticipates
that additions to property and equipment for the balance of 1996 could be
approximately $150,000, depending on the Company's success in the food industry.
This expenditure will be dependent upon the Company's ability in raising funds
through the exercise of options and warrants.

The Company also intends to seek out low cost acquisitions of businesses and/or
assets that are consistent with its strategic plan which will also depend on
the Company's ability to raise capital through the exercise of options and
warrants.

For the six months ended June 30, 1996 the Company's financing activities
consisted primarily of raising $520,000 through the exercise of options and
warrants.  The Company expects to continue to raise funds through the exercise
of options and warrants.

The Company believes that it has adequate resources through its existing credit
facility, working capital, and expected cash provided by operations and through
the anticipated exercise of outstanding options and warrants to meet future cash
requirements for at least a twelve month period.
