THE VANGUARD GROUP: LINKING TRADITION AND INNOVATION

At Vanguard, we treasure our rich nautical heritage--even as we steer our
course toward the twenty-first century. Our Report cover reflects that blending
of tradition and innovation, of past, present, and future.  The montage
includes a bronze medallion with a likeness of our namesake, HMS Vanguard (Lord
Nelson's flagship at The Battle of the Nile); a clock built circa 1816 in
Scotland, featuring a portrait of Nelson; and several views of our recently
completed campus, which is steeped in nautical imagery--from our buildings
named after Nelson's warships (Victory, Majestic, and Goliath are three shown),
to our artwork and ornamental compass rose.

FELLOW SHAREHOLDER,

Interest rates declined on balance during the six months ended July 31,
1997, the first half of Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund's fiscal year. In
this environment, which was most favorable to bonds with the longest
maturities, the returns of our nine Portfolios were right in line with the
sectors of the bond market they represent. Total returns, which varied
according to each Portfolio's average maturity, ranged from +3.4% on our
Short-Term U.S. Treasury Portfolio to +9.1% on our Long-Term Corporate
Portfolio.

     The table at right presents the total return (capital change plus
reinvested dividends) for each Portfolio during the past six months compared
with the average return of its peer group of mutual funds.

     Details about each Portfolio, including per-share net asset values, income
dividends, and distributions of net realized capital gains, as well as maturity
and credit quality data, are presented in the table that follows this letter.
The table also lists the annualized current yields for each Portfolio, which on
July 31 ranged from 5.64% on our Short-Term Federal Portfolio to 8.35% on our
High Yield Corporate Portfolio.

THE PERIOD IN REVIEW

As the half-year began, investors fretted about a possible resurgence of
inflation and interest rates. Under this cloud, the U.S. stock market went
nowhere in February and down in March. But the stall was short-lived. Inflation
fears began to recede in April and all but vanished by July. Long-term interest
rates retreated steadily after topping out in mid-April, and strong corporate
profits and steady economic growth helped push U.S. stocks to a gain of nearly
+27% in the final four months of the period alone. In sum, the nearly utopian
investment environment of the past two and one-half years prevailed.

     In the U.S. bond market, interest rates declined for all but the shortest
maturities, making for a solid six months for fixed-income investments. On
balance, the yield on the benchmark 30-year U.S. Treasury bond fell to 6.30% on
July 31, from 6.79% when the period began in February. The long-bond yield was
rising as the period began and peaked in mid-April, then declined steadily
through the remainder of the half-year. The yield on intermediate-term Treasury
bonds followed a similar path, ending the period at 6.01%, 48 basis points
below its starting point of 6.49%. But short-term interest rates ended the
period at 5.23%, an increase of 8 basis points from 5.15% at the outset, as the
Federal Reserve Board raised its target for the federal funds rate by a
quarter-point to 5.50% on March 25.

     Though returns on bonds for the six months were generous, they were a far
cry from the returns provided by the U.S. stock market, which gained +22.5%
during the period (as measured by the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock
Price Index). Common stocks continue to be aided by a powerful combination of
strong economic growth, rising corporate profits, and decelerating inflation.

     For the Portfolios of Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund, the decline
in interest rates resulted in positive capital returns that augmented our
income returns. This benefit was most apparent, of course, among our
longer-term portfolios, since a decline in interest rates boosts the prices of
long-term bonds more than it does the prices of short-term bonds. Conversely,
the prices of longer-term bonds decline more than the prices of short-term
bonds when interest rates are rising.

     In reviewing our half-year performance, it's important to note that
semiannual  returns for bond funds account for only half of the year's interest
income, while price changes occur immediately in response to changes in
interest rates. Over the long run, however, interest income accounts for
virtually all of the total return on a bond fund; thus, a full year's interest
income should be considered. The table at left presents each Portfolio's return
for the past twelve months, divided into its income and capital components.
You'll note especially strong capital returns for our intermediate-term and
long-term Portfolios during a period when interest rates generally declined.
This represents a solid recovery from the marginally negative capital returns
experienced during the preceding twelve months. For longer-term information on
each Portfolio's income and capital return, see the Performance Summaries
beginning on page 10.

</TABLE>

     As we mentioned in our annual report six months ago, the average
maturities of our Portfolios typically are somewhat longer than those of our
average competitors--a policy that we believe is in the best long-term
interests of our shareholders. While this factor works to our relative
disadvantage during periods of rising interest rates (such as last year), it
works to our competitive advantage in times of falling interest rates (so far
this year). As a result, our relative performance during the first half of this
fiscal year was good.

     The returns of our four Long-Term and Intermediate-Term Portfolios
surpassed those of their peers during the period by solid margins ranging from
0.5 to 3.4 percentage points. Returns for our GNMA Portfolio and three
Short-Term Portfolios were about the same as their peers, but our High Yield
Corporate Portfolio fared somewhat worse than the average high-yield corporate
bond mutual fund (+6.9% versus +7.6%). Our High Yield Portfolio's shortfall is
the direct result of the larger share of lower credit-quality--and therefore
higher-yielding--bonds purchased by many competing mutual





                                       2
<PAGE>   5
funds. This quality-for-yield trade-off has benefited our peers during this
time of strong economic growth, but it carries a credit risk that we are not
willing to take.

IN SUMMARY

The bond market followed a generally lackluster fiscal 1997 with a strong start
in the first six months of fiscal 1998. The returns from bonds need not
exceed--or even match--the returns of stocks to make owning bonds worthwhile.
Bonds play a critical role in a balanced investment program by adding
diversification that can help smooth some of the volatility of a portfolio that
also includes stock funds.

     We look forward to reporting to you in further detail in our 1998 Annual
Report six months hence.

THE MARKETS IN PERSPECTIVE
SIX MONTHS ENDED JULY 31, 1997

U.S. EQUITY MARKETS

The Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index finished the first half
of the fiscal year with an impressive 8.0% gain in July, which brought the
overall six-month return to 22.5%.

     Stocks benefited from the continued strength of corporate earnings, which
have been remarkably consistent in positively surprising Wall Street analysts.
At the end of January, the consensus forecast  for 1997 called for a 6.8% rise
in earnings for the S&P 500 Index. Six months later, the consensus estimate had
risen to 8.8%. Investors' confidence is also reflected in increased
price/earnings ratios. For example, in July 1996 investors were willing to pay
roughly $15 for every dollar of the S&P's earnings.  One year later, that
"price" is close to $20.

     Within the S&P 500 Index, technology was the top-performing sector for the
half-year, gaining 29.6%. By contrast, numerous uncertainties for utilities
caused that sector to lag the broad market, although, on an absolute basis, its
8.1% return over six months is quite good.

*Average annual.

     For the six months, large-capitalization stocks once again outperformed
smaller issues. The latter, as measured by the Russell 2000 Index, rose 13.1%
and actually outperformed the S&P 500 Index in the final three months (21.3%
versus 19.7%). The momentum in small-cap companies is a result of
better-than-expected earnings reports. In fact, the second-quarter earnings
increases for small companies were even stronger than those of their large-cap
counterparts. It is noteworthy that the recent small-cap gains were led by
small growth stocks, the worst segment of the U.S. market during the past 12
months. This group has surged 25% since the end of April, although at the end
of the six months it still lagged the S&P 500 Index return by a sizable margin
(7.9% versus 22.5%).

U.S. FIXED-INCOME MARKETS

The robust consumer spending that fueled the U.S. economy's remarkable 4.9%
growth in the first three months of 1997 slowed in the early summer. As a
result, the Gross Domestic Product expanded at a 2.2% annual rate in the second
quarter. Labor costs, which have been the flash point for inflation concerns,
grew at a modest rate over the





                                       4
<PAGE>   7
period, despite an unemployment rate below 5% and strong growth in the number
of new jobs reported. In the past, strong economic growth and tight labor
markets have often led to rising inflation because of increased demand for
goods and services. With this in mind, in March the Federal Reserve raised its
federal-funds interest rate target by 0.25% in a "preemptive strike" against
inflationary pressures. Since that time, however, there has been scant evidence
that higher prices were a threat. Lower automobile prices and a sharp decrease
in the cost of imports (due to the strong dollar) were key factors.

     As the market accepted the good news about inflation, yields on
longer-term issues fell during the six months. For example, the 10-year
Treasury yield dropped from 6.49% on January 31 to 6.01% at the end of July;
the 30-year bond's yield moved from 6.79% down to 6.30%. With the drop in
rates, bond investors fared reasonably well over the period, as illustrated by
the 5.6% return of the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index. Mortgage-backed
securities, which had outperformed other issues early in the period, gave back
some of their gains. Municipal issues tended to perform better than their
taxable counterparts.

INTERNATIONAL EQUITY MARKETS

International investors fared well over the six months. As measured by the
broad Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East Index,
foreign markets gained 21.1% in local-currency terms. The strong dollar,
however, trimmed this return to 17.3% for U.S. investors. Regionally, the MSCI
Europe Index gained 19.2% while the MSCI Pacific Free Index rose 14.0%. The
latter gain masked significant turmoil in some of the smaller Asian markets,
most notably Thailand, Singapore, and the Philippines.  Companies in Thailand,
in particular, face an environment of high real interest rates, a significant
number of nonperforming loans, and falling real estate prices. Over the
half-year, the Thai market dropped 26%.

     The period saw two major developments. First, the Japanese stock market
moved sharply higher, gaining 15.8% for the six months.  For U.S. investors, a
revived yen brought this return up to 18.8%. Better tone to the economy, good
earnings from the export-oriented sector, and renewed buying on the part of
foreign investors all contributed to the increase.

     Arguably the biggest news came from the French elections at the end of
May. The new government is considered to be less friendly toward the austerity
measures needed to meet the eligibility requirements for the European Monetary
Union (EMU) in 1999.  The French elections also had a broad impact across the
continent. Although most investors appear to agree that the elections won't
jeopardize the continent's move toward the EMU, the timing and intensity of the
fiscal measures are now less certain.

REPORT FROM VANGUARD FIXED INCOME GROUP
SHORT-TERM U.S. TREASURY, FEDERAL, AND CORPORATE PORTFOLIOS; INTERMEDIATE-TERM
U.S. TREASURY AND CORPORATE PORTFOLIOS; AND LONG-TERM U.S. TREASURY PORTFOLIO


The bond markets performed well during the fiscal half-year ending July 31,
1997. This good news occurred despite the Federal Reserve Board's tightening of
monetary policy in March. Ordinarily, such a signal from the nation's monetary
authority would send bond traders scurrying toward the sidelines. Not this
time. Rather, interest rates dropped anywhere from 20 to 50 basis points (0.2
to 0.5 of 1 percentage point), with the specific amount dependent on the length
of a bond's final maturity. Longer-term issues fared best, followed by
intermediate-term bonds and short-term notes.

     Naturally, the Portfolios that we manage for Vanguard Fixed Income
Securities Fund generated total returns commensurate with their specific
positions along the risk/return spectrum. In other words, the riskier
Portfolios, by virtue of their longer average maturities, did better than their
shorter brethren. Had interest rates gone up instead of down, the leaders and
followers would have reversed their order. Details of each Portfolio's total
return, consisting of both income return and capital return, are given in the
Message To Shareholders, which begins on page 1. The bottom line is this: We
are fortunate to have enjoyed a rare--indeed, almost unheard-of--period of
strong economic growth, extremely low unemployment, benign inflation, somewhat
tighter monetary policy, and (excluding the money markets) falling interest
rates. If interest rates are to descend further from prevailing levels, we'll
need a lot more of the same great news.

     How did investors find themselves in this best of all possible worlds?
There is no single answer, but a variety of explanations have been offered by
economists and market commentators, not the least of whom was Alan Greenspan,
chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. On July 22, in his
semiannual "Humphrey-Hawkins" testimony before congressional banking and
finance committees, Chairman Greenspan lauded the "exceptional" performance of
the economy and noted that "in contrast to the typical postwar business cycle,
measured price inflation is lower now than when the expansion began . . . ." He
credited this benign situation to both temporary factors and potentially more
fundamental improvements in the long-run efficiency of our economy. Prominent
among these fundamental factors were initiatives to shrink the federal budget
deficit, deregulation of industry, technological change, and the globalization
of production and labor forces.

     To say the least, it is unclear whether these factors alone will suffice
to overcome the countervailing forces of a garden-variety business cycle. In
every expansion in modern economic history, imbalances have arisen that
distorted growth in aggregate demand, production, and inflation, thereby
creating higher interest rates and other antecedents leading to the expansion's
demise. Until now, the long-sought "soft landing" for the economy was the
Panglossian stuff of myth. This time may be totally different, but we're not
betting on it.

     The behavior of interest rates during the last two years or so has been
puzzling. Yields on U.S. Treasury bonds and notes of most maturities above
three years have fluctuated between 6% and 7%, neither breaking through the
lower end of the range with any enthusiasm nor testing the higher end during
market selloffs. In this environment, the total returns of various competitors'
portfolios tend to cluster more closely to one another and to their respective
average coupons.





                                       6
<PAGE>   9
     Not surprisingly, those responsible for actively managing competing bond
funds have taken initiatives to make sure their coupons are as high as
possible. Typically, this entails taking on additional risk (usually credit
risk); and that's precisely what's occurred so far in 1996 and 1997. Among
competing corporate bond funds, there has been an almost insatiable appetite
for lower-quality, higher-yielding bonds. Many competitors are dabbling in the
sub-investment-grade sector, known familiarly as junk bonds, or in
emerging-market debt. The demand for such securities has been so high that one
now receives only minimal extra yield for descending the credit-quality
"ladder." For instance, intermediate-term, B-rated industrial bonds provide
only about 340 basis points (3.4 percentage points) more yield than a Treasury
note of equivalent maturity. The T-note, however, is ironclad in credit
quality, while the B-rated industrial note is defined as "speculative" and is
meaningfully subject to the vicissitudes of the business cycle and the
possibility of default. One can debate all day whether 3.4% extra yield per
year is enough compensation for the risk. What is not debatable is that as
recently as last year the incremental yield was 5.6%.

     The corporate bond Portfolios that we manage pursue "value-driven"
strategies. We will lower the average quality somewhat when we believe that the
yield benefits will outweigh the incremental credit risk; and we will raise the
average quality somewhat when we believe the compensation is too paltry.
Regardless, we restrict our purchases to issues among the four highest ratings
categories.  Right now, the rewards of lower-quality bonds are as meager as
we've seen in our 22 years in the business of managing fixed-income
investments.

     It should not be a surprise to learn that our Portfolios are higher in
quality than many competitors'. Given our earlier remarks, it should be no more
surprising that this stance has cost us a small portion of incremental relative
return in 1996 and 1997. If the markets are working properly, riskier
Portfolios ought to perform better, before expenses are deducted from returns.
Therein hangs the tale. We believe that Vanguard's formidable expense-ratio
advantage will more than offset any yield and return we surrender by holding
more creditworthy securities. In the long run, we perform better, sleep more
easily, and hope shareholders do as well.

REPORT FROM WELLINGTON MANAGEMENT COMPANY, LLP
GNMA, LONG-TERM CORPORATE, AND HIGH YIELD CORPORATE PORTFOLIOS

Favorable inflation numbers created a positive tone in the bond market during
the six months ended July 31, the first half of fiscal 1998 for Vanguard Fixed
Income Securities Fund.

     The Federal Reserve Board's monetary policy strongly influences
fixed-income investments, including the Fund's GNMA, Long-Term Corporate, and
High Yield Corporate Portfolios. On March 25, the Fed raised short-term rates.
Since then, all but money market rates have fallen. Although the Fed has rarely
raised rates only once without soon raising them again, Fed Chairman Alan
Greenspan recently implied that he saw no reason to increase rates in the
foreseeable future. Longer-term interest rates declined further on this news,
and they are now approximately 50 basis points (0.5 percentage point) lower
than when we wrote to you six months ago.

     Changes in interest rates affect all three of the Portfolios we manage,
but not uniformly. Long-term, investment-grade bonds generally outperform other
sectors in periods like the past fiscal half-year, when inflation is quiescent,
economic growth is moderate, and interest rates fall. A decline in interest
rates typically causes mortgage investors to fear prepayments of principal.  We
have not seen this concern to any large degree and, surprisingly,
mortgage-backed securities have not noticeably lagged in performance until very
recently. When interest rates are declining, high-yield bond returns are
usually sandwiched between the returns on long-term corporates and those on
mortgage-backed securities. We do not expect big changes, up or down, in
interest rates in the foreseeable future, so we expect all three Portfolios to
essentially earn their coupons.

GNMA PORTFOLIO

GNMA securities performed well during the half-year, despite the general
decline in interest rates.  For most of the period, investors were attracted to
the yield and credit quality of GNMAs and were not too concerned that lower
interest rates would generate a resurgence of mortgage refinancing. As the
quarter drew to a close, investors were becoming concerned that a further drop
in rates might cause refinancing to accelerate. However, there is not the sense
of panic that developed when interest rates fell in 1993.

     Refinancings put GNMAs at a disadvantage versus other intermediate-term
fixed-income securities when interest rates are declining. The cash that is
returned to the Portfolio when mortgage loans are refinanced must be reinvested
at lower rates, which can cause income to erode. We are mindful of this
phenomenon and have constructed your Portfolio to protect against income
erosion as much as possible. However, if further declines in interest rates
cause refinancing to accelerate, the GNMA Portfolio probably will experience
some decline in its income per share. Having said that, we see every reason to
believe that your GNMA Portfolio will continue to provide a high level of
income and attractive total returns compared with those of other
intermediate-term bond portfolios.

LONG-TERM CORPORATE PORTFOLIO

The Portfolio's average maturity exceeds 20 years, so its net asset value is
extremely sensitive to changes in long-term rates. The average duration also is
long, at over nine years, which implies that the net asset value per share
could change 9% with a change of 1 percentage point in interest rates.





                                       8
<PAGE>   11
     Because rates have fallen this year, the Portfolio's return has improved
over last year's, when rates were rising. With long-term corporate bonds
currently offering yields in excess of 3% over inflation, we are locking up
these attractive yields by maintaining a long duration for the Portfolio. The
Portfolio has excellent call protection, so that a majority of the securities
purchased at today's generous coupons cannot be redeemed by their issuers if
rates decline. We eliminated most mortgage holdings during the half-year to
improve call protection and reinvested the proceeds in corporate bonds.

     The major risk to the Portfolio, owing to its long average maturity and
duration, is a rise in long-term interest rates. The second risk always present
in this Portfolio is credit deterioration of the corporate issuers. To mitigate
this risk, the Portfolio is well-diversified by issuer and industry. More than
80% of the Portfolio's assets are invested in issues rated A or better. The
Portfolio does not own below-investment-grade bonds, emerging-market debt, or
foreign bonds denominated in non-U.S. currencies.

HIGH YIELD CORPORATE PORTFOLIO

The below-investment-grade market continues to be popular with investors as the
annual rate of defaults by corporate issuers has fallen to historically low
levels. We expect moderate economic growth to continue and the default rate to
remain low. Given this constructive economic outlook, we continue to emphasize
large issuers whose businesses are sensitive to the economy's ups and downs.
We do not anticipate any major problems in the economy that would cause your
Portfolio to suffer meaningful deterioration in credit quality.

     We remain very selective with respect to credit quality when examining the
large number of new issues coming to market. With strong cash flows into
high-yield mutual funds, more investment-grade investors dabbling in high-yield
bonds, and a strong stock market, the quality of companies coming to market
could deteriorate.

     We exercise in-depth credit research on a company-by-company basis and
emphasize diversification: The Portfolio owns more than 200 issues from a broad
range of industries and companies. Its holdings continue to be focused on
cash-paying issues rated B or better. We maintain a modest reserve of U.S.
Treasury securities in the event that liquidity is necessary. Within the
high-yield market, we emphasize relatively higher quality bonds in the
below-investment-grade category.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 1997 (unaudited)

The Statements of Net Assets, integral parts of the Financial Statements for
each of the Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund Portfolios, are included as
an insert to this Report (except for the GNMA Portfolio, whose Statement of Net
Assets is provided below).

STATEMENT OF NET ASSETS

This Statement provides a detailed list of each Portfolio's holdings, including
each security's market value on the last day of the reporting period.
Securities are grouped and subtotaled by bond type (U.S. government and agency
issues, corporate bonds, foreign bonds, etc.); corporate bonds are further
classified by industry sector. Other assets are added to, and liabilities are
subtracted from, the value of Total Investments to calculate the Portfolio's
Net Assets. Finally, Net Assets are divided by the outstanding shares of the
Portfolio to arrive at its share price, or Net Asset Value (NAV) Per Share.

    At the end of the Statement of Net Assets of each Portfolio, you will find
a table displaying the composition of the Portfolio's net assets on both a
dollar and per-share basis. Undistributed Net Investment Income is usually zero
because the Portfolio distributes its net income to shareholders as a dividend
each day. Any realized gains must be distributed annually, so the bulk of net
assets consists of Paid in Capital (money invested by shareholders). The
balance shown for Accumulated Net Realized Gains usually approximates the
amount available to distribute to shareholders as capital gains as of the
statement date, but may differ because certain investments or transactions may
be treated differently for financial statement and tax purposes. Any
Accumulated Net Realized Losses, and any cumulative excess of distributions
over net realized gains, will appear as negative balances. Unrealized
Appreciation (Depreciation) is the difference between the value of the
Portfolio's investments and their cost, and reflects the gains (losses) that
would be realized if the Portfolio were to sell all of its investments at their
statement-date values.

STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS

This Statement shows interest earned by each Portfolio during the reporting
period, and details the operating expenses charged to the Portfolio. These
expenses directly reduce the amount of investment income available to pay to
shareholders as income dividends.  This Statement also shows any Net Gain
(Loss) realized on the sale of investments, and the increase or decrease in the
Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) on investments during the period. If a
Portfolio invested in futures contracts during the period, the results of these
investments are shown separately.

STATEMENT OF CHANGES IN NET ASSETS

This Statement shows how each Portfolio's total net assets changed during the
two most recent reporting periods. The Operations section summarizes
information that is detailed in the Statement of Operations. Because the
Portfolio distributes its income to shareholders each day, the amounts of
Distributions--Net Investment Income generally equal the net income earned as
shown under the Operations section. The amounts of Distributions--Realized
Capital Gain may not match the capital gains shown in the Operations section,
because distributions are determined on a tax basis and may be made in a period
different from the one in which the gains were realized on the financial
statements. The Capital Share Transactions section shows the amount
shareholders invested in the Portfolio, either by purchasing shares or by
reinvesting distributions, and the amounts redeemed. The corresponding numbers
of Shares Issued and Redeemed are shown at the end of the Statement.

FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

This table summarizes each Portfolio's investment results and distributions to
shareholders on a per-share basis. It also presents the Portfolio's Total
Return and shows net investment income and expenses as percentages of average
net assets. These data will help you assess: the variability of the Portfolio's
net income and total returns from year to year; the relative contributions of
net income and capital gains to the Portfolio's total return; how much it costs
to operate the Portfolio; and the extent to which the Portfolio tends to
distribute capital gains.

    The table also shows the Portfolio Turnover Rate, a measure of trading
activity. A turnover rate of 100% means that the average security is held in
the Portfolio for one year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Vanguard Fixed Income Securities Fund is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as a diversified open-end investment company, or mutual
fund, and comprises the Short-Term U.S. Treasury, Short-Term Federal,
Short-Term Corporate, Intermediate-Term U.S. Treasury, Intermediate-Term
Corporate, GNMA, Long-Term U.S. Treasury, Long-Term Corporate, and High Yield
Corporate Portfolios.  Certain of the Fund's investments are in corporate debt
instruments; the issuers' abilities to meet these obligations may be affected
by economic developments in their respective industries.

A.  The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted
accounting principles for mutual funds. The Fund consistently follows such
policies in preparing its financial statements.

    1. SECURITY VALUATION: Bonds, and temporary cash investments acquired more
than 60 days to maturity, are valued using the latest bid prices or using
valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security
prices, yields, maturities, and credit ratings), both as furnished by
independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at
amortized cost, which approximates market value.

    2. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES: Each Portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a
regulated investment company and distribute all of its income. Accordingly, no
provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.

    3. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS: Each Portfolio, along with other members of The
Vanguard Group, transfers uninvested cash balances to a Pooled Cash Account,
the daily aggregate of which is invested in repurchase agreements secured by
U.S. government securities.  Securities pledged as collateral for repurchase
agreements are held by a custodian bank until the agreements mature. Each
agreement requires that the market value of the collateral be sufficient to
cover payments of interest and principal; however, in the event of default or
bankruptcy by the other party to the agreement, retention of the collateral may
be subject to legal proceedings.

    4. FUTURES CONTRACTS: Each Portfolio, except the Short-Term Federal
Portfolio, may use Municipal Bond Index, U.S. Treasury Bond, and U.S. Treasury
Note futures contracts, with the objectives of enhancing returns, managing
interest-rate risk, maintaining liquidity, diversifying credit risk, and
minimizing transaction costs. The Portfolios may purchase or sell futures
contracts instead of bonds to take advantage of pricing differentials between
the futures contracts and the underlying bonds. The Portfolios may also seek to
take advantage of price differences among bond market sectors by simultaneously
buying futures (or bonds) of one market sector and selling futures (or bonds)
of another sector. Futures contracts may also be used to simulate a fully
invested position in the underlying bonds while maintaining a cash balance for
liquidity. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are
imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the
Portfolios and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an
illiquid market.

    Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement
prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in
the financial statements. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are
recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the
Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the
contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains
(losses).

    5. DISTRIBUTIONS: Distributions from net investment income are declared
daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual
distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.

    6. OTHER: Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities
are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale
of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold. Premiums
and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted,
respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities.

B.  The Vanguard Group furnishes investment advisory services to the Short-Term
U.S. Treasury, Short-Term Federal, Short-Term Corporate, Intermediate-Term U.S.
Treasury, Intermediate-Term Corporate, and Long-Term U.S. Treasury Portfolios
on an at-cost basis.

    Wellington Management Company, LLP provides investment advisory services to
the GNMA, Long-Term Corporate, and High Yield Corporate Portfolios for fees
calculated at an annual percentage rate of average net assets. For the six
months ended July 31, 1997, the investment advisory fees of the GNMA, Long-Term
Corporate, and High Yield Corporate Portfolios represented effective annual
rates of 0.01%, 0.03%, and 0.04%, respectively, of average net assets.

C.  The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost corporate management, administrative,
marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated
to the Fund under methods approved by the board of directors. At July 31, 1997,
the Fund had contributed capital aggregating $1,844,000 to Vanguard (included
in Other Assets), representing 9.2% of Vanguard's capitalization. The Fund's
directors and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

D.  During the six months ended July 31, 1997, purchases and sales of
investment securities other than U.S. government securities and temporary cash
investments were:

VANGUARD FIXED INCOME SECURITIES FUND
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
JULY 31, 1997 (unaudited)

The Statement of Net Assets should be read in conjunction with the Statement of
Operations, Statement of Changes in Net Assets, Financial Highlights, and Notes
to Financial Statements, all of which appear in the accompanying Report. The
Statement of Net Assets for the GNMA Portfolio begins on page 15 of that Report.

STATEMENT OF NET ASSETS

This Statement provides a detailed list of each Portfolio's holdings, including
each security's market value on the last day of the reporting period. Securities
are grouped and subtotaled by bond type (U.S. government and agency issues,
corporate bonds, foreign bonds, etc.); corporate bonds are further classified by
industry sector. Other assets are added to, and liabilities are subtracted from,
the value of Total Investments to calculate the Portfolio's Net Assets. Finally,
Net Assets are divided by the outstanding shares of the Portfolio to arrive at
its share price, or Net Asset Value (NAV) Per Share.

    At the end of the Statement of Net Assets of each Portfolio, you will find a
table displaying the composition of the Portfolio's net assets on both a dollar
and per-share basis. Undistributed Net Investment Income is usually zero because
the Portfolio distributes its net income to shareholders as a dividend each day.
Any realized gains must be distributed annually, so the bulk of net assets
consists of Paid in Capital (money invested by shareholders). The balance shown
for Accumulated Net Realized Gains usually approximates the amount available to
distribute to shareholders as capital gains as of the statement date, but may
differ because certain investments or transactions may be treated differently
for financial statement and tax purposes. Any Accumulated Net Realized Losses,
and any cumulative excess of distributions over net realized gains, will appear
as negative balances. Unrealized Appreciation (Depreciation) is the difference
between the value of the Portfolio's investments and their cost, and reflects
the gains (losses) that would be realized if the Portfolio were to sell all of
its investments at their statement-date values.
