You could try "bluing". Be careful to follow the directions, or you will turn the clothes blue. You only use a few drops in each load.
You can also let the clothes soak in the water and bleach for a 1/2 hour. If you don't like the bleach smell, you could re-wash afterwards.

Sponge the stain with ammonia. If the stain is old, sponge with distilled white vinegar.
Pre-soak in cold or warm water. Wash in the hottest water safe for the fabric.
If the fabric is yellowed, use bleach.
If the stain still remains, dampen & sprinkle with meat tenderizer or pepsin. Let stand 1 hour, brush off & wash.
For persistent odor, sponge with colorless mouthwash.
