A Simple
Investment
Strategy For
Total Return.


PaineWebber

SELECTING INVESTMENTS FOR YOUR PORTFOLIO CAN BE COMPLICATED.  SOMETIMES,
SIMPLE CAN BE BETTER.

The Select Ten Strategy

The Select Ten Portfolio seeks total return by holding the ten highest
dividend-yielding stocks of the Dow Jones Industrial Average(*) for about
one year (the "Strategy").

It's Simple

The Portfolio offers a simple way to seek potential values in the equity
market by investing in established companies whose prices may be depressed.

The Portfolio consists of approximately equal values of the ten stocks in the
DJIA having the highest dividend yield at the time of the offering, and will
hold them for about one year.  Each year, we intend to reapply the screening
process to select a new Portfolio.  You can reinvest in the next Portfolio, if
available, at a reduced sales charge or you can redeem your investment.
Although each Portfolio is a one-year investment, we recommend you stay with
the Strategy for at least three to five years.

Portfolio.  "S&P 500" is a trademark of Standard & Poor's Corporation.


It's Convenient

o You have a convenient way to invest in a fixed Portfolio of widely held
stocks with just one purchase.  You'll also enjoy the advantages of:

o Low Cost.  The minimum investment is about $250.

o Quarterly dividends.  You will receive four consolidated checks per year,
not 40 for the 10 stocks.

o Reinvestment.  You may choose to reinvest your dividends at a reduced sales
charge to compound your income.

o No sell decisions.  You are buying and holding for about a year, a
Portfolio of established companies with relatively high dividend yields.

  (1)  Initial date of deposit -- January 6, 1998
  (2)  Current Dividend Yield for each security was calculated by annualizing
the last quarterly or semi-annual ordinary dividend received on that security
and dividing the result by that security's market value as of the close of
trading on January 5, 1998.  There can be no assurance that future dividends,
if any, will be maintained at the indicated rates.

Past Performance of Prior Select Ten Portfolios

The chart below shows average annual total returns for the following Series,
which assumes an annual "rollover" into the next Portfolio.  We've also
included returns for the most recently completed Portfolio of each Series:

</TABLE>

Past performance is no guarantee of future results.  Average annual total
returns represent price changes plus dividends reinvested, dividend by the
initial public offering price, and reflect maximum sales charges and expenses.
Returns for Series From Inception will differ from Most Recently Completed
Portfolio because Series From Inception figures reflect a reduced sales charge
on rollovers and the performance periods differ.

Hypothetical Past Performance of the Strategy (not any Portfolio)

Growth of $10,000 invested 1/1/73 through 12/31/97

[A mountain chart compares the cumulative annual performance from 1/1/73
through 12/31/97 of the Strategy (3)  (blue), the DJIA (pink) and S&P 500
Index (*)  (green).  A blue box in the upper left quadrant indicates the
components of the Strategy performance section of the chart ("net of sales
charges and expenses").  The horizontal (X) axis compares the cumulative
annual performance by year, from 1/1/73 through 12/31/97.  The vertical (Y)
axis reflects the dollar amount of performance for each index from 1/1/73
through 12/31/97.  The initial value of each investment is $10,000.
Throughout the aforementioned period, increases in each investment builds
towards the Y axis.  At the end of this period, the Y axis reflects the
ending value of the Strategy ($416,360 ), the DJIA ($212,619) and the S&P
500 Index ($205,563).]

Past performance of the Strategy is no guarantee of future results of any
Portfolio.  The Strategy would have underperformed the DJIA in 12 and the S&P
500 Index in 11 of the last 25 years.  There can be no assurance that any
Portfolio will outperform either index.

Returns represent price changes plus dividends reinvested at each year end and
do not reflect the deduction of any commissions or taxes.  Portfolio
performance will also differ from the Strategy because Portfolios are
established and liquidated at different times during the year, they normally
purchase and sell stocks at prices different from the closing prices used in
determining Portfolio unit price, Portfolios are not fully invested at all
times and stocks may not be weighted equally.  The Strategy does not reflect
the research opinions or any buy or sell recommendations of any of the
Sponsors.  For additional information on the Strategy and the Portfolio,
please speak to your financial professional.

Defining Your Risks

The following are important facts to keep in mind when considering this
investment for your portfolio.  Please read them carefully.  Your financial
professional will be happy to answer any questions you may have.

o The Portfolio is designed for investors willing and able to assume the risks
generally associated with equity investments.  It may not be appropriate for
investors seeking capital preservation.  Equity markets have been at
historically high levels and no assurance can be given that these levels will
continue.

o There can be no assurance that the Portfolio will meet its objective.

o The value of your investment will fluctuate with the prices of the underlying
stocks.  There can be no assurance that dividend rates will be maintained or
that stock prices will not decrease.  Generally, dividends and any gains will
be subject to tax each year.  Capital gains, if any, on assets held over a
year will be taxed up to the maximum federal tax rate of 28%.  However, on
rollovers to future series (if available), investors will defer recognition of
gains and losses on stocks that are contributed in kind to the new series (and
may be eligible for a 20% maximum federal tax rate on gains from stock that
are sold).

o These stocks may have higher yields because they or their industries are
experiencing financial difficulties or are out of favor.  There can be no
assurance that the market factors which caused these relatively low prices and
high yields will change.

Tax Reporting

The proceeds received when you sell this investment will reflect the deduction
of the deferred sales charge and the charge for organizational expenses.  In
addition, the annual statement and the relevant tax reporting forms you
receive at year end will be based on the amount paid to you (net of the
deferred sales charge and the charge for organizational expenses).
Accordingly, you should not increase your basis in your units by the
deferred sales charge and the charge for organizational expenses.

Defining Your Cost

Low Initial Sales Charge/Reduced Charge for Rollovers

First-time investors pay an initial sales charge of about 1% when they buy.
All investors pay a deferred sales charge of 1.75% per 1,000 units, deducted
in each of the last ten months of the Portfolio ($17.50 total).

                                         Public Offering        Amount Per

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Initial Sales Charge                          1.00%               $10.00
Deferred Sales Charge                         1.75%               $17.50

- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you sell your units before termination, the remaining balance of your
deferred sales charge is deducted, along with the estimated costs of selling
Portfolio securities.  If you roll over to a successor Portfolio, if
available, the initial charge is waived.  You only pay the $17.50 deferred fee
and operating expenses.

Volume Purchase Discounts

For larger purchases, the overall sales charges are reduced to put more of
your investment dollars to work for you.
