INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
To the Directors of United Vanguard Fund, Inc.:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of United
Vanguard Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") for the year ended September 30, 1999 (on which
we have issued our report dated November 5, 1999), we considered its internal
control, including control activities for safeguarding securities, in order to
determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on
the financial statements and to comply with the requirements of Form N-SAR, and
not to provide assurance on the Fund's internal control.
The management of the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining
internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and related costs of
controls. Generally, controls that are relevant to an audit pertain to the
entity's objective of preparing financial statements for external purposes that
are fairly presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. Those controls include the safeguarding of assets against
unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition.
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control, misstatements due to
error or fraud may occur and not be detected. Also, projections of any
evaluation of internal control to future periods are subject to the risk that
internal control may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that
the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Our consideration of the Fund's internal control would not necessarily disclose
all matters in internal control that might be material weaknesses under
standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
A material weakness is a condition in which the design or operation of one or
more of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low
level the risk that misstatements caused by error or fraud in amounts that would
be material in relation to the financial statements being audited may occur and
not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of
performing their assigned functions. However, we noted no matters involving the
Fund's internal control and its operation, including controls for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined above as of
September 30, 1999.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of management, the
Board of Directors of United Vanguard Fund, Inc., and the Securities and
Exchange Commission and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone
other than these specified parties.

UNITED VANGUARD FUND, INC.
SUB-ITEM 77I
(a) and (b): Terms of New or Amended Securities
The Fund has four classes of shares. Prior to October 4,
1999, the Fund offered only two classes of shares to the
public. Shares outstanding on that date were designated as
Class A shares and Class Y shares. As of October 4, 1999,
the Fund also offers Class B shares and Class C shares.
Class B shares have a deferred sales charge on shares sold
within six calendar years and are subject to a 0.25% service
charge and a 0.75% distribution charge. Class C shares have
a 1% deferred sales charge on shares sold within twelve
months and are subject to a 0.25% service charge and a 0.75%
distribution charge.
Each share (regardless of class) has one vote. All shares
of the Fund vote together as a single class, except as to
any matter for which a separate vote of any class is
required by the Investment Company Act of 1940, and except
as to any matter which affects the interests of one
particular classes, in which case only the shareholders of
the affected class are entitled to vote, as a separate
class. Shares are fully paid and nonassessable when
purchased. The addition of the Class B and Class C shares
had no effect on the rights of the existing shareholders.
