Banc Stock Group Fund:
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of
Banc Stock Group Fund for the year ended February 28, 1999, we
considered its internal control structure, including procedures 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, not to provide assurance on the internal control structure.
The management of Banc Stock Group Fund is responsible for
establishing and maintaining an internal control structure. In
fulfilling this responsibility, estimates and judgments by
management are required to assess the expected benefits and related
costs of internal control structure policies and procedures. Two
of the objectives of an internal control structure are to provide
management with reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that assets
are safeguarded against loss from unauthorized use or disposition
and transactions are executed in accordance with management's
authorization and recorded properly to permit preparation of
financial statements in conformity with generally accepted ac-
counting principles.
Because of inherent limitations in any internal control structure,
errors or irregularities may occur and may not be detected. Also,
projection of any evaluation of the structure to future periods is
subject to the risk that it may become inadequate because of
changes in conditions or that the effectiveness of the design and
operation may deteriorate.
Our consideration of the internal control structure would not
necessarily disclose all matters in the internal control structure
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 the
specific internal control structure elements does not reduce to a
relatively low level the risk that errors or irregularities 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
internal control structure, including procedures for safeguarding
securities, that we consider to be material weaknesses as defined
above as of February 28, 1999.
