MITCHELL HUTCHINS LIR SELECT MONEY FUND                            ANNUAL REPORT

                                                                   June 15, 2000

Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to present you with the annual report for Mitchell Hutchins
LIR Select Money Fund (the "Fund") for the fiscal year ended April 30, 2000.

MARKET REVIEW

The Fund's fiscal year was a difficult time for the fixed income market. Rapid
economic growth caused the Federal Reserve (the "Fed") to increase short-term
interest rates. Yields on fixed income securities rose as interest rates rose,
causing losses in almost every sector of the bond market. Diversion of
investment funds into technology stocks hurt the bond markets, as did supply
surges brought on by Y2K worries. Finally, the market was disrupted by the U.S.
Treasury's announcement of a $30 billion buyback of long-term debt for calendar
year 2000.

     Short-term yields (as measured by the 90-day U.S. Treasury bill) rose from
4.53% to 5.82% during the fiscal year. Rising yields created more attractive
conditions for money market funds, which benefited because of their emphasis on
short-maturity, highly liquid securities.

HIGHLIGHTS

     We kept the Fund's weighted-average maturity at or below its peer group
average during the fiscal year. Because concerns about the approach of Y2K and
the expectation of higher interest rates, we increased the Fund's liquidity by
purchasing short-term assets. The new century dawned without major problems, and
with the Y2K issue behind us we continued to structure the Fund to balance its
goals of principal of stability and current income.

ANNUAL REPORT                            MITCHELL HUTCHINS LIR SELECT MONEY FUND

Throughout the fiscal year, we maintained the Fund's focus on first-tier
credit-quality instruments.

     The Fund tends to have a short weighted-average maturity in order to meet
investors' liquidity needs. We seek to enhance yield by employing a "barbell"
strategy--concentrating most of the portfolio in short-term obligations to
provide liquidity, but allocating a portion to longer-term obligations to
provide yield. To enhance yield, the Fund may allocate a portion of the
portfolio to obligations deemed to have maturities of up to 13 months.

OUTLOOK

     We expect an active Fed and rising rates across the yield curve in the
first half of 2000. We look for moderating economic growth in the second half of
the year, and believe interest rates will stabilize in response to current
growth and the absence of real inflationary pressure. As always, we intend to
maintain the Fund's emphasis on maximizing income consistent with maintaining
liquidity.

*    Weightings represent percentages of net assets as of the dates indicated.
     The Fund's portfolio is actively managed and its composition will vary over
     time.

Organization and Significant Accounting Policies
 Mitchell Hutchins LIR Select Money Fund (the "Fund") is registered with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as a diversified series of Mitchell Hutchins LIR Money Series (the
"Trust"), an open-end management investment company organized as a Delaware
business trust on April 29, 1998. The Trust is a series mutual fund with five
funds: the Fund, LIR Premier Money Market Fund, LIR Premier Tax-Free Money Mar-
ket Fund, LIR Liquid Assets Fund and LIR Cash Reserves Fund. The financial
statements for the LIR Premier Money Market Fund, LIR Premier Tax-Free Money
Market Fund, LIR Liquid Assets Fund and LIR Cash Reserves Fund are not included
herein. Prior to commencement of operations, August 10, 1998, the Fund had no
activity other than the sale of 100,000 Institutional shares on July 22, 1998
to Mitchell Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins"), the invest-
ment adviser and an asset management subsidiary of PaineWebber Incorporated
("PaineWebber"), for $100,000.
 The Fund currently offers two classes of shares, Institutional shares and Fi-
nancial Intermediary shares. Each class represents interests in the same assets
of the Fund, and both classes have equal voting privileges, except that benefi-
cial owners of Financial Intermediary shares receive certain services directly
from financial intermediaries, bear certain service fees and, to the extent
that matters pertaining to the Shareholder Services Plan or to the Financial
Intermediary shares are submitted to shareholders for approval, only the hold-
ers of Financial Intermediary shares are entitled to vote thereon. At April 30,
2000, there are no Financial Intermediary shares outstanding.
 The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting princi-
ples generally accepted in the United States requires Fund management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
 Valuation and Accounting for Investments and Investment Income--Investments
are valued at amortized cost which approximates market value. Investment trans-
actions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains and losses from
investment transactions are calculated using the identified cost method. Inter-
est income is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums are amortized and dis-
counts are accreted as adjustments to interest income and the identified cost
of investments.
 Repurchase Agreements--The Fund's custodian takes possession of the collateral
pledged for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying collateral is
valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to ensure that the value, including ac-
crued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the event that a
counterparty defaults on its obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right
to liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the obli-
gation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy by
the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the collat-
eral may be subject to legal proceedings.
 Dividends and Distributions--Dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions are
determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ
from generally accepted accounting principles. These "book/tax" differences are
either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differ-
ence are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital
accounts based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do
not require reclassification.
Concentration of Risk
 The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Fund to meet
their obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those
particular to a specific industry or region.

                                                                               9

Notes to Financial Statements
Investment Adviser and Administrator
 The Trust has an Investment Advisory and Administration Contract ("Advisory
Contract") under which Mitchell Hutchins serves as investment adviser and ad-
ministrator of the Fund. In accordance with the Advisory Contract, Mitchell
Hutchins receives compensation from the Fund, computed daily and paid monthly,
at an annual rate of 0.18% of the Fund's average daily net assets. At April 30,
2000, the Fund owed Mitchell Hutchins $307,320 in management fees.
 Under the Advisory Contract, Mitchell Hutchins has agreed to pay all Fund ex-
penses other than the management fees, the fees payable pursuant to the Share-
holder Service Plan adopted by the Trust with respect to the Fund's Financial
Intermediary shares, fees and expenses (including counsel fees) of those trust-
ees who are not "interested persons" of the Trust (as defined in the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended) ("Independent Trustees"), interest, taxes and
the cost (including brokerage commissions and other transaction costs, if any)
of securities purchased or sold by the Fund and any losses incurred in connec-
tion therewith and extraordinary expenses (such as costs of litigation to which
the Trust or Fund is a party and of indemnifying officers and trustees of the
Trust). Although Mitchell Hutchins is not obligated to pay the fees and ex-
penses of the Independent Trustees, it is contractually obligated to reduce its
management fee in an amount equal to those fees and expenses. Mitchell Hutchins
had agreed to waive 6 basis points (0.06%) of its 18 basis points (0.18%) man-
agement fee from May 1, 1999 through August 31, 1999. From September 1, 1999
through April 30, 2000, Mitchell Hutchins had agreed to waive 3 basis points
(0.03%) of the 18 basis points (0.18%) fee. Mitchell Hutchins has agreed to ex-
tend that waiver of 3 basis points (0.03%) of its 18 basis points (0.18%) fee
through January 31, 2001. At April 30, 2000, management fees were 15 basis
points (0.15%).
 For the year ended April 30, 2000, Mitchell Hutchins voluntarily waived
$687,813 of its management fees.
Other Liabilities
 At April 30, 2000, dividends payable were $11,519,430.
Federal Tax Status
 The Fund intends to distribute all of its taxable income and to comply with
the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated in-
vestment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is re-
quired. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year substantially
all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other amounts, if
any, the Fund intends not to be subject to federal excise tax.
Shareholder Service Plan and Agreement
 Under a Shareholder Service Plan and Agreement with respect to its Financial
Intermediary shares, the Fund pays PaineWebber monthly fees at the annual rate
of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of the Financial Intermediary shares
held by financial intermediaries on behalf of their customers. Under Service
Agreements with those financial intermediaries, PaineWebber pays an identical
fee to the financial intermediaries for certain support services that they pro-
vide to the beneficial owners of the Financial Intermediary shares.

Notes to Financial Statements
Money Market Fund Bond
 The Fund obtained an insurance bond that provides limited coverage for certain
loss events involving certain money market instruments held by the Fund. These
loss events include non-payment of principal or interest or a bankruptcy or in-
solvency of the issuer or credit enhancement provider (if any). The insurance
bond provides for coverage up to $200 million for a number of funds with a de-
ductible of 10 basis points (0.10%) of the total assets of the Fund for First
Tier Securities and 50 basis points (0.50%) of the total assets of the Fund for
Second Tier Securities, in each case determined as of the close of business on
the first business day prior to the loss event. In the event of a loss covered
under the bond, the Fund would expect to retain the security in its portfolio,
rather than having to sell it at its current market value, until the date of
payment of the loss, which is generally no later than the maturity of the secu-
rity. While the policy is intended to provide some protection against credit
risk and to help the Fund maintain a constant price per share of $1.00, there
is no guarantee that the insurance will do so. The Adviser pays the premium on
behalf of the Fund.
 For the period September 30, 1999 to April 30, 2000, the Fund did not use this
insurance bond.
Shares of Beneficial Interest
 There is an unlimited amount of $0.001 par value shares of beneficial interest
authorized. Transactions in shares of beneficial interest, at $1.00 per share,
were as follows:

Mitchell Hutchins LIR Select Money Fund
Report of Independent Auditors

The Board of Trustees and Shareholders of
Mitchell Hutchins LIR Select Money Fund

 We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of Mitchell Hutchins
LIR Select Money Fund as of April 30, 2000, and the related statement of opera-
tions for the year then ended, the statement of changes in net assets and the
financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended. These
financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the
Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these finan-
cial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.

 We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally ac-
cepted in the United States. 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 and financial highlights. Our procedures included con-
firmation of securities owned at April 30, 2000, by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers. An audit also includes assessing the accounting princi-
ples used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating
the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits pro-
vide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

 In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to
above and audited by us present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Mitchell Hutchins LIR Select Money Fund at April 30, 2000, the re-
sults of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets
and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then end-
ed, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States.

Mitchell Hutchins LIR Select Money Fund
Tax Information (unaudited)

 We are required by Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, to advise you within 60 days of the Fund's fiscal year end, April 30,
2000, as to the federal tax status of distributions received by shareholders
during such fiscal period. Accordingly, we are advising you that all dividends
paid by the Fund during the fiscal period were derived from net investment in-
come. These amounts are taxable as ordinary income, none of which qualifies for
the dividend received deduction available to corporate shareholders.
 Dividends received by tax-exempt recipients (e.g., IRAs and Keoghs) need not
be reported as taxable income. Some retirement trusts (e.g., corporate, Keogh
and 403(b)(7) plans) may need this information for their annual information re-
porting.
 Because the Fund's fiscal year is not the calendar year, another notification
will be sent in respect of calendar year 2000. The second notification, which
will reflect the amounts to be used by calendar year taxpayers on their federal
income tax returns, will be made in conjunction with Form 1099 DIV and will be
mailed in January 2001. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax ad-
visers with respect to the tax consequences of their investment in the Fund.
