OUR MESSAGE TO YOU

[photo of James E. Stowers and James E. Stowers III in the left margin]

     The continued combination of moderate economic growth, subdued inflation
and declining interest rates provided a positive environment for fixed income
investors during the 12 months ended October 31, 1995. In a continuing effort to
curb inflation, the Federal Reserve Board increased short-term interest rates
consistently until July. Mid-summer easing of monetary policy in the wake of
muted economic activity and moderate inflation resulted in lowered yields for
short-term money market fund investors but higher bond prices for bond fund
investors.
     Although continuing corporate financial health and Congressional moves
toward a balanced budget were positive signs for fixed income investors,
tax-reform discussions caused concern among tax-exempt investors and unrest in
the municipal bond market. Uncertainty surrounding discussion of a flat tax,
which could reduce the tax-advantaged benefits of municipal securities, prompted
municipal securities of all maturities to underperform the Treasury market.
     You will find details about all of the Twentieth Century Investors, Inc.
fixed income funds performance results for the 12-month period under Period
Overview beginning on page 4. 
     During the last half of the period, members of the fixed income management
team began working closely with their new colleagues at The Benham Group. The
June 1995 merger of the parent company of your funds' investment manager with
the parent of The Benham Group's investment manager has substantially increased
the resources available for your fund managers to use in making investment
decisions. Additionally, the integration of the two firms has created an even
broader range family of mutual funds.
     As the combined Twentieth Century/Benham company continues to grow, you
will see greater efforts to enhance the information and services you receive.
For example, this Twentieth Century Investors, Inc. Fixed Income Funds Annual
Report has been expanded to include a synopsis of the investment philosophy that
guides your funds. You also will be receiving a consolidated statement in
January that will summarize your account history with Twentieth Century.
     We appreciate your confidence in the Twentieth Century family of funds and
remain committed to providing you with high quality investment management and
service, along with a wide selection of funds designed to help you pursue your
investment objectives.


Sincerely,

/s/James E. Stowers                                  /s/James E. Stowers III

INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGY

     In a continuing effort to provide investors with funds to meet a wide
variety of investment needs, Twentieth Century introduced its first fixed income
fund--U.S. Governments Short-Term--in 1982. Since then, 11 more fixed income
funds have been introduced, ranging from money market funds to long-term bond
funds and including both taxable and tax-exempt funds.

o  Cash Reserve is a money market1 fund. It seeks to provide current income
   while also seeking to maintain a stable share price by investing in a
   diversified portfolio of short-term money market securities. The fund, which
   was established on March 1, 1985, must maintain a weighted average maturity
   of not more than 90 days.

o  U.S. Governments Short-Term seeks to provide a competitive level of income
   with limited price fluctuations by investing in securities of the U.S.
   government and its agencies. The fund, which was established on December 15,
   1982, intends to maintain a weighted average maturity of three years or less.

o  U.S. Governments Intermediate-Term was established on March 1, 1994, and is
   designed for investors who seek a higher level of current income and can
   accept a greater degree of price fluctuation. The fund invests in securities
   of the U.S. government and its agencies and seeks to maintain a weighted
   average maturity of three to 10 years.

o  Limited-Term Bond, which was established on March 1, 1994, is designed for
   investors seeking above-average income with limited price fluctuation. The
   fund invests primarily in investment-grade2 corporate securities and other
   debt instruments and maintains a weighted average portfolio maturity of five
   years or less.

o  Intermediate-Term Bond is designed for investors who seek a higher level of
   income than that provided by Limited-Term Bond but with somewhat greater
   price volatility. The fund, which was established on March 1, 1994, invests
   in investment-grade securities. It seeks to maintain a weighted average
   maturity of three to 10 years.

o  Long-Term Bond, which was established on March 2, 1987, is designed for
   investors who seek higher income while accepting the generally greater price
   volatility associated with longer-term bonds. The fund invests in
   investment-grade corporate bonds and other debt instruments. It maintains a
   weighted average portfolio maturity of 10 years or more.

o  Tax-Exempt Short-Term is designed for investors who seek tax-advantaged
   income and can accept some fluctuation in principal. Established on March 1,
   1993, the fund invests primarily in short-term municipal bonds. It seeks to
   maintain a weighted average maturity of three years or less.

o  Tax-Exempt Intermediate-Term, which was established on March 2, 1987, is
   designed for investors who can accept fluctuation in the value of their
   investment in order to earn a higher level of income than is generally
   available with tax-exempt short-term bonds. The fund invests in tax-exempt
   bonds and its weighted average maturity cannot exceed 10 years.

o  Tax-Exempt Long-Term is designed for investors who seek a higher level of
   tax-exempt income and can accept the higher degree of price fluctuation
   associated with longer-term bonds. The fund was established on March 2, 1987,
   and invests in longer-term tax-exempt bonds. It seeks to maintain a weighted
   average maturity of 10 years or more.

1  An  investment in Cash Reserve is neither insured nor  guaranteed by the U.S.
government,  and there can be no  assurance  that the fund will be able to
maintain a stable net asset value per share.
2  Securities  rated Baa or above by Moody's  Investors  Service,  Inc. and BBB 
or  above  by  Standard  &  Poor's   Corporation   are   considered  to  be
investment-grade.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PERIOD OVERVIEW

     In a continuing effort to restrain economic growth and hold inflation in
check, the Federal Reserve Board raised short-term interest rates consistently
until mid-summer. As it became apparent in July that the strategy was achieving
its goal, the Board lowered short-term rates. As a result, two-year Treasury
notes, which had increased to 6.85%, fell to 5.62% over the 12 months ended
October 31, 1995. During the same period, 30-year Treasury bond yields fell from
7.98% to 6.34%. While these lower rates are good for most fixed income investors
given that declining rates drive up bond prices, declining rates lower money
market yields. Unlike the first half of the period when the Federal Reserve
raised very short-term interest rates, short-term rates fell in the second half
of the period. Taxable securities generally outperformed their tax-exempt
counterparts for the year.
 
     Falling interest rates generated higher bond prices and positive total
returns across the maturity spectrum for fixed income investors. Longer-term
securities, which generally are more interest rate sensitive than are short-term
issues, did best during the period. Keep in mind that when interest rates fall,
bond prices rise, and when interest rates rise, bond prices fall. As a general
rule, during periods of rising interest rates, shorter maturities can help
reduce the effect of falling bond prices on a fund's net asset value.

     Municipal bonds of all maturities trailed Treasury market performance in
the last half of the period as tax reform discussions cooled investors' interest
in municipal securities. In particular, investors responded to the fact that a
flat tax, which has been proposed by several members of Congress, could
significantly reduce the tax-advantaged status of municipal securities.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CASH RESERVE

     Because declining interest rates lowered the returns for short-term money
market investors, we positioned Cash Reserve at the longer end of its maturity
range throughout the period. Anticipating continued lower rates, the fund's
investment managers extended its weighted average maturity to approximately 70
days, near the longer end of its allowable 90-day maturity range. Extending the
maturity allowed managers to lock in rates and maintain higher yields longer.

     Designed for investors whose priority is principal protection with minimal
credit risk, Cash Reserve invests in the top two ratings of commercial paper and
other securities. At the end of the 12-month period, the portion of the fund's
portfolio invested in securities rated A 1+, the highest rating available for
money market securities, exceeded 80%.

     Cash Reserve posted a total return of 5.38% for the period with a seven-day
effective yield on October 31, 1995, of 5.29%.

     As of the end of the 12-month period, $38,500,000, or 2.62%, of Cash
Reserve's assets were invested in taxable variable-rate notes issued by Orange
County, California. For further discussion, please see Note 2 of Notes to
Financial Statements on page 35.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
U.S. GOVERNMENTS SHORT-TERM

     In order to capture the price appreciation that resulted from falling
interest rates, portfolio managers for U.S. Governments Short-Term extended the
fund's average weighted maturity throughout the 12-month period to 2.2 years,
closer to the longer end of the allowable three-year maturity range. The
weighted average duration was extended to approximately two years. Duration is a
measure of a bond fund's sensitivity to interest rate changes. It is based upon
the total present value of all principal and interest payments to be received,
is calculated at prevailing interest rates and is expressed in years. The higher
a security's duration, the more sensitive is its price to changes in interest
rates.
     Because Treasury securities generally outperform mortgage-backed securities
in a declining interest rate environment, the fund's managers reduced
mortgage-backed holdings from nearly 30% to approximately 12% and increased
investments in Treasuries. U.S. Governments Short-Term produced a total return
of 8.42% for the 12 months. That compares with a 9.02% return for two-year
Treasury securities and 8.95% for the Merrill Lynch Government (1-3 Year) Index.

U.S. GOVERNMENTS INTERMEDIATE-TERM

     U.S. Governments Intermediate-Term produced a total return of 11.58% for
the period, outpacing the 11.09% return on three-year Treasury securities. The
benchmark Lehman Intermediate Government Bond Index posted an 11.79% return for
the 12 months.
     Treasury securities comprised the bulk of the fund's holdings throughout
the period with the remainder invested in government-agency-issued
mortgage-backed securities. Mortgage holdings were reduced from close to 20% to
approximately 13% in anticipation of further interest rate declines. In order to
take advantage of the price appreciation that accompanies declining interest
rates, the fund's portfolio managers extended the fund's weighted average
maturity from 3.9 years to approximately 5.5 years and extended weighted average
duration from 3.0 years to 4.1 years by the end of the period.

LIMITED-TERM BOND

     Limited-Term Bond posted an 8.89% total return for the 12 months, closely
tracking two-year Treasury notes, which gained 9.02% for the period. In
comparison, the somewhat longer Merrill Lynch Government/Corporate (1-5 Year)
Index returned 10.48% for the period.
     Reflecting improvements in credit quality in the corporate market because
of the continuing economic recovery, more than half of Limited-Term Bond's
portfolio was invested in corporate securities during the 12 months ended
October 31. The remainder of the portfolio held Treasury securities and
mortgage-backed securities issued by agencies of the federal government. All of
the fund's portfolio holdings were investment grade-AAA, AA, A or BBB-with more
than half in the top three of these grades. As the fund continues to grow, it
will likely invest an increasingly greater proportion of its assets in
investment-grade corporate securities, which normally offer opportunities for
slightly higher yields than government and agency securities of comparable
maturity.

INTERMEDIATE-TERM BOND

     Intermediate-Term Bond realized a total return of 12.19% for the 12-month
period ended October 31, 1995. In comparison, its benchmark Lehman Intermediate
Government/Corporate Index gained 12.54% for the same period.
     Intermediate-Term Bond's investment managers maintained a weighted average
portfolio maturity beyond five years with a weighted average duration of
approximately four years. Confidence in improving corporate financial health led
portfolio managers to invest 61% of the fund's portfolio in corporate securities
with the remainder in Treasury and agency securities, mortgage-backed securities
and cash. More than 80% of the portfolio held securities rated AAA, AA and A; as
the economy continued to improve, BBB-rated holdings were increased to
approximately 16%.
     As the fund attracts additional assets, we expect it to hold a greater
proportion of its portfolio in investment-grade corporate securities.

LONG-TERM BOND

     Posting a 17.16% total return for the period, Long-Term Bond outperformed
the benchmark Lehman Aggregate Bond Index, which returned 15.65%. This
performance can be attributed to both a somewhat longer duration than the index
throughout the period based on our expectations of declining interest rates as
well as to our success investing in improving credits in the corporate bond
market.
     Long-Term Bond's investment team positioned the fund's weighted average
maturity at slightly more than 10 years throughout the period, while maintaining
a weighted average duration of approximately 5.6 years. Long-Term Bond's
portfolio was even more heavily weighted in corporate securities than was
Intermediate-Term Bond-nearly 70%, with the remainder in Treasury and agency
securities, mortgage-backed securities and cash. All of the fund's holdings were
investment-grade, with more than 80% in the top three categories.

TAX-EXEMPT SHORT-TERM

     Tax-Exempt Short-Term entered the 12-month period in a defensive posture
because we believed that strong economic growth could lead to higher inflation
and higher interest rates. As economic and market conditions changed, however,
we extended the weighted average maturity from 1.1 years to 2.4 years and
extended weighted average duration from 1.11 years to 2.09 years. The strategy
resulted in noteworthy performance in the second half of the period when twoto
three-year municipal bonds provided strong combinations of yield and price
appreciation in the maturity range.
     Fund managers increased holdings in one-year securities near the end of the
period when such bonds' prices rose above those for two- and three-year bonds.
Balancing these with purchases of five- and six-year maturities enabled managers
to maintain a weighted average maturity near 2.4 years. As readily available
AAA-rated securities continued to afford attractive yields, the investment team
increased holdings in these securities to more than 40% of the portfolio.
     With a total return of 5.95% for the 12-month period, Tax-Exempt Short-Term
performed well compared to its benchmark Merrill Lynch Muni (0-3 Year) Index,
which returned 6.60%. Because the fund's manager has waived the fund's fees
until January 1, 1996, the average total return for the period was not reduced
by management fees.

TAX-EXEMPT INTERMEDIATE-TERM

     With a total return of 10.41%, Tax-Exempt Intermediate-Term outperformed
the benchmark Lehman 5-Year General Obligation Index's 10.35% return for the
12-month period ended October 31, 1995. Believing that continued economic growth
could lead to higher inflation and higher interest rates, fund managers
positioned Tax-Exempt Intermediate-Term defensively at the beginning of the
period.
     As it became apparent that both inflation and interest rates would remain
subdued, the portfolio managers extended the weighted average maturity from 6.4
years to 7.5 years, and weighted average duration extended from 4.92 years to
5.42 years. The strategy proved beneficial in the second half of the period when
seven-year securities provided among the best combinations of yield and price
appreciation in this maturity sector. Recently, in the face of continuing
appreciation of longer-term securities, fund managers have added 10- to 15-year
securities to the fund's portfolio, balancing the weighted average maturity with
shorter-term bonds.
     The fund's holdings at the end of the period reflected Twentieth Century's
strong emphasis on high quality, with 68% of the fund invested in AAA-rated
securities.

TAX-EXEMPT LONG-TERM

     The amount of the Tax-Exempt Long-Term portfolio invested in AAA-rated
securities, the highest quality rating available, reached 62% at the end of the
period. The fund's 14.45% total return for the 12 months slightly trails its
benchmark Lehman Muni Bond Index, which returned 14.84%.
     Although Tax-Exempt Long-Term entered the 12 months in a moderately
defensive position, portfolio managers extended the fund's weighted average
maturity as economic and market conditions changed early in 1995. Because we
believed shorter-term securities-those with maturities of five or fewer
years-had already experienced their greatest price appreciation, fund managers
replaced these securities with attractively priced longer-term bonds, those with
maturities of 15 to 30 years. As a result of this positioning, Tax-Exempt
Long-Term's weighted average maturity was extended from 15.5 years to 18.4
years, and the weighted average duration was extended from 7.78 years to 9.06
years. The repositioning enabled the fund to benefit from the municipal security
rally near the end of the period.

+ Private placement securities exempt from registration under rule 144A of the
Securities Act of 1933. These securities may only be resold in transactions
exempt from registration, normally to qualified institutional investors. The
aggregate value of these securities at October 31, 1995, was $293,520 which
represented 19.97% of net assets.

++ This security has been downgraded by both Moody's and S&P, due to the
bankruptcy filing of Orange County, California. According to Securities and
Exchange Commission Regulations, this security is no longer considered an
eligible security without Board of Directors approval. On December 7, 1994, the
Board of Directors determined that it was not in the best interest of the Fund
to dispose of this security. This security was originally due to mature on July
10, 1995. Orange County revised the terms of this security to extend the
maturity to June 30, 1996. The revised terms also included an increase in the
security's interest rate and an interest payment schedule requiring partial
payments of interest prior to June 30, 1996, with the remaining interest
payments due at maturity. See Note 2 of the accompanying Notes to the Financial
Statements.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS   October 31, 1995

1. ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization-
     Twentieth Century Investors, Inc. (the Corporation) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end diversified investment company.
Sixteen series of shares are currently issued, nine of which invest primarily in
fixed income securities: Cash Reserve, U.S. Governments Short-Term, U.S.
Governments Intermediate-Term, Limited-Term Bond, Intermediate-Term Bond,
Long-Term Bond, Tax-Exempt Short-Term, Tax-Exempt Intermediate-Term and
Tax-Exempt Long-Term (the Funds). The following significant accounting policies
are in accordance with accounting policies generally accepted in the investment
company industry.

Security Valuations-
     Debt securities of all Funds except Cash Reserve are valued through
valuations obtained by a commercial pricing service or at the mean of the bid
and asked prices. The portfolio securities of Cash Reserve and short-term
investments of all other Funds are valued at amortized cost, which approximates
current value. When valuations are not readily available, securities are valued
at fair value as determined in good faith by the board of directors.

Security Transactions-
     Security transactions are accounted for on the date purchased or sold. Net
realized gains and losses are determined on the identified cost basis, which is
also used for federal income tax purposes.

Investment Income-
     Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization
of premiums and discounts.

Repurchase Agreements-
     Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase agreements are held by the
Federal Reserve Bank and are designated as being held on the Funds' behalf by
its custodian under a book-entry system. The Funds monitor the adequacy of the
collateral daily and can require the seller to provide additional collateral in
the event the market value of the securities pledged falls below the carrying
value of the repurchase agreement.

Income Tax Status-
     It is the policy of the Funds to distribute all taxable income and capital
gains to shareholders and to otherwise qualify as a regulated investment company
under provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Accordingly, no provision has
been made for federal or state taxes.

Distributions to Shareholders-
     Net investment income dividends from all Funds except Cash Reserve are
declared daily and distributed monthly. Cash Reserve dividends are declared
daily from the total of net investment income, plus or minus realized gains or
losses on portfolio securities, and distributed monthly. Cash Reserve does not
expect to realize any long-term capital gains, and accordingly, does not expect
to pay any capital gains distributions. Net realized gains in excess of
available capital loss carryovers for all other Funds will be distributed each
December.
     At October 31, 1995, accumulated net realized capital loss carryovers of
$19,619,040 for U.S. Governments Short-Term, $10,706 for Limited-Term Bond,
$7,254 for Tax-Exempt Short-Term and $27,014 for Tax-Exempt Long-Term (expiring
1998 through 2003) may be used to offset future taxable gains. Distributions
from net investment income for Tax-Exempt Short-Term, Tax-Exempt
Intermediate-Term, and Tax-Exempt Long-Term for the year ended October 31, 1995,
are exempt from federal income taxes.
     The character of distributions made during the year from net investment
income or net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for
federal income tax purposes due to differences in the recognition of income and
expense items for financial statement and tax purposes.

Supplementary Information-
     Certain officers and directors of the Corporation are also officers and/or
directors, and, as a group, controlling stockholders of Twentieth Century
Companies, Inc., the parent of the Corporation's investment manager, Investors
Research Corporation (IRC).

2. MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

     The Management Agreement with IRC provides for a monthly management fee
computed by multiplying the applicable fee for each Fund by the average daily
closing value of such Fund's net assets during the previous month. The Agreement
further provides that all expenses of the Fund, except brokerage commissions,
taxes, interest, expenses of those directors who are not considered "interested
persons" as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940 (including counsel
fees) and extraordinary expenses, will be paid by IRC. The Agreement may be
terminated by either party upon 60 days' written notice.

The current annual management fee for each Fund is as follows:

Cash Reserve                       .70%   Long-Term Bond               .80%
U.S. Governments Short-Term        .70%   Tax-Exempt Short-Term        .60%*
U.S. Governments Intermediate-Term .75%   Tax-Exempt Intermediate-Term .60%
Limited-Term Bond                  .70%   Tax-Exempt Long-Term         .60%
Intermediate-Term Bond             .75%

* The fee has been waived by IRC through December 31, 1995.  For the fiscal year
  ended October 31, 1995, the management fees absorbed by IRC were $358,147.

     Cash Reserve owns $38,500,000 of taxable variable-rate notes issued by
Orange County, California, which filed for bankruptcy protection on December 6,
1994. On December 13, 1994, Twentieth Century Companies, Inc. (TCC) arranged for
the issuance of an irrevocable standby letter of credit by Chase Manhattan Bank
in favor of Cash Reserve. In July 1995, a new letter of credit arrangement was
entered into with State Street Bank and Trust Company. The terms of this letter
of credit provide for the payment of up to $25,000,000 to the Cash Reserve Fund
should Orange County default in the payment of principal and/or interest on such
note. Since the letter of credit only covers a portion of the amount of the
Orange County note held, the Fund continues to be exposed to some risk of loss
of principal and/or interest on the Orange County security. The market value of
this security on October 31, 1995 was $36,501,850. TCC has agreed to reimburse
State Street Bank for any payments made by the bank to the Fund under this
letter of credit. The value of the letter of credit is not considered material
to the Fund's financial statements.

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors:
Twentieth Century Investors, Inc.

     We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities,
including the schedules of investments, of the Cash Reserve Fund, U.S.
Governments Short-Term Fund, U.S. Governments Intermediate-Term Fund,
Limited-Term Bond Fund, Intermediate-Term Bond Fund, Long-Term Bond Fund,
Tax-Exempt Short-Term Fund, Tax-Exempt Intermediate-Term Fund and Tax-Exempt
Long-Term Fund (nine of the 16 funds in TWENTIETH CENTURY INVESTORS, INC.), as
of October 31, 1995, and the related statements of operations, the statements of
changes in net assets and the financial highlights for each of the periods
indicated. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.

     We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of
October 31, 1995, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers. An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

     In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the
Cash Reserve Fund, U.S. Governments Short-Term Fund, U.S. Governments
Intermediate-Term Fund, Limited-Term Bond Fund, Intermediate-Term Bond Fund,
Long-Term Bond Fund, Tax-Exempt Short-Term Fund, Tax-Exempt Intermediate-Term
Fund and Tax-Exempt Long-Term Fund as of October 31, 1995, and the results of
their operations, changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for
each of the periods indicated in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.
