THE PROSPECTUS DATED MARCH 31, 1999,
AND, STARTING ON PAGE 7,
PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT DATED SEPTEMBER 13, 1999
On September 13, 1999, Sentinel Group Funds, Inc. (the "Company") began
offering shares of a new fund named Sentinel Growth Index Fund (the "Growth
Index Fund"). This Supplement, which is to be used in conjunction with the
Prospectus for the Sentinel Funds dated March 31, 1999 (the "Prospectus"),
describes the investment objective and policies and other features of the
Growth Index Fund.
What is the Main Goal and Investment Strategy of the Growth Index Fund?
The Growth Index Fund seeks to match, as closely as possible, before
expenses, the performance of the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index, which includes
those stocks of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index (the
"S&P 500 Index") with higher than average price to book value ratios. The Fund
will invest primarily in the common stocks of the companies that comprise the
S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index, in approximately the same proportions as they are
represented in the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index.
What are the Main Risks of Investing in the Growth Index Fund?
The value of the Growth Index Fund, like all equity mutual funds, will go
up and down as the prices of the stocks held by the Fund go up and down. Stock
markets tend to move in cycles, with periods of rising prices and periods of
falling prices. Stocks could decline generally or underperform other types of
investment assets. An investor in the Fund could lose money over short or even
long periods of time.
The Growth Index Fund is also subject to investment style risk, which is
the chance that returns from large capitalization growth stocks will trail
returns from other asset classes or the overall stock market. Growth stocks
tend to go through cycles of doing better, or worse, than the stock market in
general. These periods have, in the past, lasted for as long as several years.
There is also a risk that the Growth Index Fund will not track closely
the performance of the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index for a number of reasons,
including the Fund's costs of buying and selling securities and the flow of
money into and out of the Fund.
There can be no assurance that the Growth Index Fund will achieve its
objective.

then you may pay a deferred sales charge of up to 1% if you redeem your shares
within two years of your purchase.
/2/ If you redeem by wire transfer, we assess a wire charge of $25.00.
CLASS B SHARES:
Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Purchases ....................None
Maximum Deferred Sales Charge (Load)
(as a percentage of the lower of the
purchase price or the net asset value
of the shares being redeemed) .......................................2.50%/3/
Maximum Sales Charge (Load) Imposed on Reinvested Dividends .........None
Exchange Fees .......................................................None
______________
/3/ The maximum deferred sales charge is imposed on shares redeemed in the
first two years after purchase. For shares held longer than two years, the
deferred sales charge declines.
ANNUAL FUND OPERATING EXPENSES
We estimate that the Growth Index Fund will incur the expenses shown
below in its first year of operations, expressed as a percentage of the Fund's
average net assets.

/(a)/ The above expense ratios do not reflect waivers of fees by Sentinel
Advisors Company. Currently Sentinel Advisors voluntarily waives fees to the
extent necessary to cap the expense ratio of the Class A shares of the Growth
Index Fund at 0.65%. This fee waiver will also proportionately benefit the
Class B shares of the Growth Index Fund. Sentinel Advisors currently intends
to continue this fee waiver indefinitely; however, it may change or terminate
the fee waiver at any time after November 30, 2000.
EXAMPLES:
These examples are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in
the Growth Index Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. They
assume that you invest $10,000 in the Growth Index Fund for the time periods
indicated, that you pay the initial sales charge in the case of the Class A
shares, that the Fund's operating expenses are as estimated above for the
entire period, and that your investment has a 5% return each year. This
assumption is not meant to indicate that you will receive a 5% annual rate of
return. Your annual return may be more or less than the 5% used in these
examples. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these
assumptions your costs would be as shown below. NOTE THAT THE AMOUNTS SHOWN DO
NOT REFLECT THE WAIVER OF FEES THAT LIMITS EXPENSE RATIOS AS DISCUSSED IN
FOOTNOTE (A) ABOVE.

Details About the Growth Index Fund's Investment Objective, Principal
Investment Strategies, and Associated Risks
The Growth Index Fund seeks to match, as closely as possible, before
expenses, the performance of the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index. The S&P 500/BARRA
Growth Index includes those stocks of the S&P 500 Index with higher than
average price to book value ratios. The S&P 500 is an unmanaged index and
typically includes companies that are the largest and most dominant in their
industries. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its
objective.
The Fund will invest at all times at least 80% of its total assets in the
common stocks of the companies that comprise the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index.
It intends normally to invest substantially all its total assets in these
common stocks, in approximately the same weightings as the S&P 500/BARRA
Growth Index. The Fund also may hold up to 20% of its assets in money market
instruments and stock index options and futures. Futures and options are
considered "derivatives" because they "derive" their value from a traditional
security (like a stock or bond) or index. The Fund intends to buy index
options or futures, if at all, only in anticipation of buying stocks.
The Growth Index Fund is not "actively managed", which would involve the
investment advisor buying and selling securities based on research and
analysis. Rather, the Growth Index Fund tries to match, as closely as
possible, before expenses, the performance of its target index, the S&P
500/BARRA Growth Index. It does this by holding, under normal circumstances,
all of the common stocks included in the target index, in approximately the
same weightings as in the index.
The Growth Index Fund by itself is not a balanced investment program. The
Growth Index Fund will generally hold exclusively the stocks of companies
among the 500 largest U.S. publicly owned corporations. Of these stocks, the
stocks included in the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index have been valued in the
stock market at levels which indicate that the market expects their issuers to
have better than average prospects for growth of revenue and earnings. These
stocks are sometimes referred to as "large capitalization growth stocks". The
Growth Index Fund will not invest in other types of stocks, including the
stocks of small companies, or so-called "value stocks", from which the market
does not expect as much growth in revenue and earnings, but which can be
purchased at lower valuations. Diversifying your investments beyond "large
capitalization growth stocks" may lower the volatility of your overall
investment portfolio, and could improve your long-term investment return.
It is anticipated that the Growth Index Fund will have relatively small
portfolio turnover. However, it may have to sell securities from time to time
to meet redemption requests, and adjustments will be made in the portfolio
from time to time because of changes in the composition of the S&P/BARRA
Growth Index.
RISK FACTORS
Stock Market Risk. The Growth Index Fund is subject to stock market risk,
which is the risk that the value of common stocks in general will decline.
Investment Style Risk. The S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index is comprised of
larger companies which in general are perceived by the stock market to have
higher growth potential. The Growth Index Fund thus focuses on so-called
"large capitalization growth stocks". Changes in investment style may cause
these large capitalization growth stocks to underperform the stock market in
general, or other asset classes.
Tracking Error Risk. There are several reasons why the Fund's performance
may not match the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index. First, the Fund incurs
administrative expenses and transaction costs in trading stocks. Second, the
composition of the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index and the stocks held in the Fund
may diverge, due to cash flows into or out of the Fund and changes in the
composition of the index. Third, the timing and magnitude of cash flows into
and out of the Fund may result in temporarily uninvested cash, or may lead to
weightings of stocks held by the Fund which are not precisely the same as in
the S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index.
Futures and Options. If the Fund invests in stock index futures or
options contracts, the Fund will be subject to the risks that:
- the future or option will not fully offset the underlying
positions,
- the Fund cannot sell the future or option because of an
illiquid secondary market, and
- the intended risk management purpose of the future or option
may not be achieved, and may produce losses or missed
opportunities.

CLASS A SHARES
For purchases of Class A shares of the Growth Index Fund, you pay the public
offering price, which includes the front-end sales charge, next computed after
we receive your order. The sales charge ranges from 2.50% of the offering
price (2.56% of the net amount invested) to zero, depending on the size of
your purchase, as shown below.

</TABLE>
In cases in which there is no sales charge because your purchase was
$1,000,000 or more, the Funds' distributor, Sentinel Financial Services
Company, will pay dealers compensation of 1.00% for sales of up to $4,999,999.
In these cases, if you redeem the shares in the first one year after the
purchase, a 1.0% CDSC will be imposed, and if you redeem in the second year, a
0.5% CDSC will be imposed. For sales of $5,000,000 or more, Sentinel Financial
will individually negotiate dealer compensation and CDSCs. After the second
year, there will be no CDSC. You can find additional information on this CDSC
on page 28 of the Prospectus.
You can receive a reduced sales charge for a number of reasons, as
discussed on pages 28-30 of the Prospectus.
The Class A shares of the Growth Index Fund participate in the Company's
Class A Distribution Plan. This Plan provides for a fee to the Distributor of
the Sentinel Funds at a maximum annual rate of 0.20% of average daily net
assets of the Class A shares of the Growth Index Fund. We will pay trail
commissions to dealers on Class A shares of the Growth Index Fund at an annual
rate of 0.20% of average daily net assets. Additional information on this
Distribution Plan is set forth on page 30 of the Prospectus.
CLASS B SHARES
For purchases of Class B shares of the Growth Index Fund, you pay the
current net asset value. There is no initial sales charge. A contingent
deferred sales charge, or CDSC, will be imposed on Class B shares of the
Growth Index Fund if you redeem shares during the CDSC period, unless you can
use one of the CDSC waivers listed on page 34 of the Prospectus. Whether you
pay a CDSC upon a redemption, and how much it is, depends on the amount of
your purchases and the number of years since you made the purchase. The CDSC
schedules for Class B shares of the Growth Index Fund are shown below:

</TABLE>
The maximum purchase amount for Class B shares is $1,000,000. For additional
information on CDSCs on Class B shares, see page 30 of the Prospectus.
The Class B shares of the Growth Index Fund participate in the Company's
Class B Distribution Plan. This Plan provides for a fee to Sentinel Financial
at a maximum annual rate of 0.75% of average daily net assets of the Class B
shares of the Growth Index Fund. We will pay trail commissions to dealers on
Class B shares at varying rates depending on the overall average daily net
assets in all Class B shares of the Sentinel Funds for which a particular
registered representative is the registered representative of record, as
described on page 31 of the Prospectus. Additional information on this
Distribution Plan is set forth on page 31 of the Prospectus.
Class B shares of the Growth Index Fund automatically convert to Class A
shares of the Growth Index Fund at the end of the applicable CDSC period, in
the same way as the Class B shares of the other Sentinel Funds which offer
Class B shares convert to Class A shares of the same Fund. See page 31 of the
Prospectus.
Sentinel Financial pays selling dealers, at the time you purchase Class B
shares of the Growth Index Fund, an amount equal to 2.50% of your purchase
payment (2.0% in the case of purchases between $500,000 and $1,000,000).
Exchanges
Shares of the Growth Index Fund may be exchanged into shares of the same
class of any other Fund, as described on pages 37-38 of the Prospectus, but
only after at least 90 days have elapsed from their purchase, in the case of
purchases initially made in the Growth Index Fund. Shares of other Sentinel
Funds may be exchanged into shares of the same class of the Growth Index Fund,
but not within the first 90 days after the initial purchase of such other
Sentinel Fund shares.
Other Information
The minimum initial investment in the Growth Index Fund is $5,000, except
for IRA and other qualified retirement plan accounts (in which case the
minimum investment is $1,000), and except that you may invest in the Fund with
as little as $100 per month using the Automatic Investment Plan. The minimum
subsequent investment for the Growth Index Fund is $100.
For other information on how to buy, sell exchange or transfer shares of
the Sentinel Funds, please see "How to Buy, Sell, Exchange and Transfer
Shares", beginning on page 35 of the Prospectus.
INITIAL MARKETING INCENTIVE
Sentinel Financial will pay to dealers, in addition to the normal dealer
reallowance described above, an amount of 0.25% of investments during the
first 90 days of the Growth Index Fund's operation for which a single
registered representative is the registered representative of record, if the
amount of such investments during the first 90 days of the Growth Index Fund's
operation for which such registered representative is the registered
representative of record is $500,000 or more.
DIVIDENDS, CAPITAL GAINS AND TAXES
The Growth Index Fund pays dividends substantially equivalent to its net
investment income, if any, once per year in December. Distributions of net
realized capital gains, if any, are paid annually in December. Unless you
elect otherwise, your dividends and capital gains distributions will be
reinvested automatically in shares of the same class of the Growth Index Fund.
See "Dividends, Capital Gains and Taxes" on page 40 of the Prospectus.
MANAGEMENT OF THE GROWTH INDEX FUND
The investment advisor to the Growth Index Fund is Sentinel Advisors
Company, which also is the investment advisor to the other Sentinel Funds.
Information on Sentinel Advisors can be found on page 42 of the Prospectus.
For its services as investment advisor, Sentinel Advisors receives from the
Growth Index Fund a fee equal to 0.30% per annum of the average daily value of
the net assets of the Growth Index Fund.
PORTFOLIO MANAGEMENT. Sentinel Advisors uses a team approach in managing
the Sentinel Funds. The Growth Index Fund is managed by Sentinel Advisors'
Equity Growth Team. Information on Sentinel Advisors' team approach to
portfolio management and on the Equity Growth Team can be found on pages 42
and 43 of the Prospectus.
<PAGE>
PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT DATED SEPTEMBER 13, 1999
MATTERS NOT RELATING SPECIFICALLY TO THE GROWTH INDEX FUND
PORTFOLIO MANAGER CHANGES
Effective June 22, 1999, Van Harissis joined Sentinel Advisors as Senior
Vice President, and became the leader of Sentinel Advisors' Equity Value Team,
replacing Richard A. Pender. Mr. Harissis was a managing director and
portfolio manager at Phoenix Investment Partners from 1995 to 1999, and
previously was a portfolio manager at Howe & Rusling. Effective July 12, 1999,
William C. Kane, previously co-manager of the Bond Fund, became the sole
portfolio manager of the Bond Fund. Richard D. Temple is retiring from
Sentinel Advisors.
WORLD FUND SUBADVISOR
Effective July 1, 1999, the sub-advisor to the World Fund changed from
INVESCO Capital Management, Inc., to INVESCO Global Asset Management (N.A.),
Inc. These entities are under common control. The terms of the contract have
not changed and the personnel serving the World Fund has not changed.
WAIVER OR REDUCTION OF A CDSC
Effective September 13, 1999, we have changed the situations in which a
CDSC will be waived, by replacing situation 5 on page 34 of the Prospectus
under "Waiver or Reduction of a CDSC" with the following:
5. The CDSC will be waived on redemption of shares acquired prior to
September 13, 1999 in amounts up to 10% annually of the account's
then current net asset value. Note that in the case of Class D shares
this amount is up to 8% annually instead of up to 10% annually. The
CDSC will be waived on redemptions made under Systematic Withdrawal
Plans for shares acquired on or after September 13, 1999 in amounts
up to 10% annually of the account's then net asset value. Again in
the case of Class D shares this amount is up to 8% annually instead
of up to 10% annually. We have also enhanced our systematic
withdrawal plan administration to permit Systematic Withdrawal Plans
to be either a fixed dollar amount or a percentage of the account's
value, rather than only a percentage of the account's value; and

PERFORMANCE DATA
The Funds may from time to time include average annual total return
figures in advertisements or other material the Funds send to existing or
prospective shareholders. The Funds calculate these figures by determining the
average annual compounded rates of return that would produce the redeemable
value of the Fund being shown at the end of each period for a given initial
investment. All recurring and nonrecurring expenses are included in the
calculation. It is assumed that all dividends and distributions are
reinvested. In addition, to better illustrate the performance of money already
invested in the Funds, the Funds may also periodically advertise total return
without subtracting sales charges.
The fixed income Funds also may quote yields in advertisements. Yields
are computed by dividing net investment income for a recent 30-day (or one
month) period by the product of the average daily number of shares outstanding
during that period and the maximum offering price per share on the last day of
the period. The result is then annualized. These Funds may also show
comparable yields to those shareholders already invested in the Funds by using
the net asset value per share instead of maximum offering price in the above
calculations. This has the effect of raising the quoted yields. The Tax-Free
Income, New York and Pennsylvania Funds may also include tax-equivalent yields
in advertisements. Tax-equivalent yields increase the yield as calculated
above to make it comparable on an after-tax basis to an investment which
produces taxable income.
The Funds also may compare their performance to relevant indices in
advertisements. The equity Funds may compare their performance to stock
indices, including the Dow Jones Industrial Average, the S&P 500 Index, the
S&P 500/BARRA Growth Index, and the Russell 2000 Index. The World Fund may
compare its performance to the "EAFE" (Europe, Australia, Far East) Index. The
High Yield Fund may compare its performance to the Chase Manhattan Bank Index.
The fixed income Funds may compare their performance to bond or money market
indices, including the Lehman Aggregate Bond Index, Municipal Bond Index, or
Government Bond Index, and Donoghue's Money Fund Report.
The Funds also may refer to rankings and ratings published by independent
tracking services and publications of general interest including Lipper
Analytical Services, Inc., CDA/Wiesenberger, Morningstar, Donoghue's;
magazines such as Money, Forbes, Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine,
Financial World, Consumer Reports, Business Week, Time, Newsweek, U.S. News
and World Report; and other publications such as the Wall Street Journal,
Barron's, Investor's Daily, and Standard & Poor's Outlook. These ranking
services and publications may rank the performance of the Funds against all
other mutual funds or against funds in specified categories. The rankings may
or may not include the effects of sales or other charges.
