fabric in Danville in 1883.

By the 1970's it was one of the
largest employers in Virginia, with
more than 10-thousand workers.

But as textile manufacturing
began to suffer from foreign
competition, Dan River closed plants,
and cut jobs.

By March of last year it was in
Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

It came out of bankruptcy
protection last February, but put its
apparel division on the market. By then
it was employing 12- to- 16- hundred

people in Danville.

gets it back and uses the pretty

as Beamer gives it up to his big man
Jervis Wimbush, The big fella showing
of the jumper.
