Debt Disclosure [Text Block] | 4. DEBT At April 28, 2012, a subsidiary of the Company maintained unsecured revolving credit facilities with banks aggregating $75 million (the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities expire through July 8, 2013 and, currently, any borrowings would bear interest at .3% to .9% above LIBOR or, at our election, .5% below the banks’ reference rate. At April 28, 2012, $2.4 million of the Credit Facilities was used for standby letters of credit and $72.6 million was available for borrowings. The Credit Facilities require the subsidiary to maintain certain financial ratios, principally debt to net worth and debt to EBITDA (as defined in the loan agreements), and contain other restrictions, none of which are expected to have a material effect on our operations or financial position. At April 28, 2012, we were in compliance with all loan covenants and approximately $1.2 million of retained earnings was restricted from distribution.
