PRESIDENT'S
MESSAGE
[PHOTO]
DEAR CONTRACTOWNERS:
We are pleased to provide you with an update of Ohio National Fund's performance
and investment activity for the semi-annual period ended June 30, 1997. Despite
some short-term volatility in the early months of 1997, stocks in general
registered strong gains and bond performance overall was solid. Large-cap stocks
in particular continued to drive the vigorous bull market to new records, just
as they have for the past several years.
At present, corporate earnings, both in terms of their growth and their
reliability, continue to be quite good. Inflation remains benign, at its lowest
levels in some three decades. Credit growth has been slow and stable. Economic
growth appears to be continuing at a moderate, sustainable pace. As we seek to
capitalize on this favorable environment we remain mindful that the future
course of the markets is, as always, uncertain. Therefore, we shall continue to
adhere to our fundamental investment principles of careful selection and
constant management in pursuit of long-term objectives.
OUR NEW LOOK
We believe it is important to clearly and efficiently communicate investment
information to you. To that end, we are pleased to introduce several
enhancements to our Ohio National Fund Semi-Annual Report. Foremost is the
addition of a summary page for each portfolio (excepting the Money Market).
There you'll find information on the portfolio's allocations and top holdings,
data on its total returns, a graph showing the performance of a hypothetical
investment in it and comments from the portfolio's manager. You'll notice
several other changes throughout, all designed to help you better understand
your investments. As always, we welcome your comments.
LOOKING AHEAD
1997 marks the 27th anniversary of Ohio National Fund's first portfolio, the
Equity Portfolio. Over the 27 years Ohio National Fund has grown to 16
portfolios and more than $800 million in net assets. We value the confidence you
have demonstrated in us as we have attained this milestone. Our highest priority
as we go forward remains earning your continued confidence with strong long-term
performance.
Information on your investments is contained in the following pages. We are
proud that Ohio National Fund is able to provide its investors with the sound
results documented herein. Please note in reviewing performance results that
rates of return under variable contracts differ depending on the applicable
charges for mortality and expenses. Please contact your registered
representative for additional information on the tax-favored financial
protection and accumulation options afforded by your variable annuity or
variable universal life contract. As your needs change over time, he or she
stands ready to serve you.

In Closing
Finally, I wish to thank Ohio National Fund's recently retired president, Don
Zimmerman, for his leadership in advancing the best interests of our investors.
It is now my privilege to serve as your president and my responsibility to
continue the Fund's progress. Thank you again for the confidence you have placed
in Ohio National Fund as you pursue your wealth-building endeavors.
Best regards,
/s/John J. Palmer

EQUITY PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE:
The principal investment objective of the Equity Portfolio is long-term capital
growth. Current income is a secondary objective.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
Average Annual Total Returns:
One-year 21.12%
Three-year 20.49%
Five-year 16.07%
Since inception (1/14/71) 11.18%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS:
The financial markets, primarily the equity markets, have experienced tremendous
growth over the past 12 months. This surge is the result of strong corporate
profits, low inflation, moderate interest rates and tremendous cash flow into
the markets. The leaders in this upward move have been large capitalization
stocks. Most funds that invest in the small, medium, or a blend of market
capitalization size issues have not kept pace with the Dow or the S&P 500 Index
or related funds. They have, for the most part, provided respectable returns.
Going forward, it looks as though the economy could strengthen somewhat into the
second half of this year. Interest rates could move up some, but probably not
much unless inflation concerns surface. With stock valuations at high levels,
continued positive corporate earnings growth will be necessary for the market to
maintain its current levels or to move up.

BOND PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND,INC.
OBJECTIVE:
The Bond Portfolio seeks to obtain a high level of income and opportunity for
capital appreciation consistent with preservation of capital.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
Average Annual Total Returns:
One-year 8.81%
Three-year 8.68%
Five-year 7.13%
Since inception (11/2/82) 8.60%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS:
This portfolio competes in Lipper's Variable Insurance Products BBB-rated bond
category and is running in the top third for the first half of the year. We have
not made any significant adjustments to the portfolio even though the bond
market has had a strong rally since April. We are concerned that present
momentum in the economy may begin to push interest rates higher and are
therefore keeping our portfolio mix the same -- presently concentrating on
corporate bonds with 5-10 year maturities.

OMNI PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE:
The Omni Portfolio seeks a high level of long-term total rate of return
consistent with prudent investment risks. Total return consists of current
income and capital appreciation.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
Average Annual Total Returns:
One-year 19.51%
Three-year 17.31%
Five-year 13.57%
Since inception (9/10/84) 11.99%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS:
The financial markets, primarily the equity markets, have experienced tremendous
growth over the past 12 months. This surge is the result of strong corporate
profits, low inflation, moderate interest rates and tremendous cash flows into
the markets. The leaders in this upward move have been large capitalization
stocks. Most funds that invest in the small, medium, or a blend of market
capitalization size issues have not kept pace with the Dow or the S&P 500 Index
or related funds. The have, for the most part, provided respectable returns.
Going forward, it looks as though the economy could strengthen somewhat into the
second half of this year. Interest rates could move up some, but probably not
much unless inflation concerns surface. With stock valuations at high levels,
continued positive cooperate earnings growth will be necessary for the market to
maintain its current levels or to move up.

INTERNATIONAL PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE:
The International Portfolio seeks long-term capital growth by investing
primarily in securities of foreign companies.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
Average Annual Total Returns:
One-year 15.19%
Three-year 13.48%
Five-year N/A
Since inception (5/3/93) 17.22%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS:
Most European markets were strong performers, ending the quarter at all-time
highs. In April, stocks were affected by U.S. market volatility and a lower U.S.
dollar. Reemerging EMU uncertainties with respect to Germany's and France's
ability to meet Maastricht criteria by 1999, volatile foreign exchange and bond
markets caused equities to decline. In May, markets recovered, supported by a
firmer U.S. dollar, higher bond prices, and the release of positive economic
data. Political issues impacted certain local markets. In June, the endorsement
of a stability pact on budgetary discipline at the Amsterdam Meeting of EU
leaders and the conclusion of the Denver G-8 summit without major surprises
provided additional support for European markets.
The Japanese market weakened at the beginning of the period reflecting concerns
over further asset write-downs in the property and banking sectors and sluggish
consumer demand. By the end of April, equities recovered due to growing optimism
for structural reforms and expectations that interest rates would remain low. In
May, a stronger Yen and a scandal in the securities industry caused market
volatility. However, as the Yen stabilized and encouraging economic news emerged
in June, that market strengthened. Equities in Hong Kong rose sharply and South
Korean shares recovered to finish the quarter up. Singapore issues were
negatively impacted by turmoil in other Southeast Asian economies. The release
of positive economic data and higher bond prices buoyed the New Zealand and
Australian markets.

CAPITAL APPRECIATION PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The Capital Appreciation Portfolio seeks maximum capital growth by investing
primarily in common stocks.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
Average Annual Total Returns:
One-year 17.00%
Three-year 17.10%
Five-year N/A
Since inception (4/30/94) 16.03%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
Financial markets and most subsectors were almost universally strong in the
first half of 1997. Equity markets completed their ninth and 10th consecutive
positive quarters. This hasn't happened in 40 years. Persistently low levels of
inflation and a strong economy were the key positives. The Federal Reserve
modestly raised interest rates, but this only dampened enthusiasm temporarily.
Meanwhile, the potential vertigo inherent in today's historically high equity
valuations remains largely ignored.
We were not well-positioned for the market's broad trends. First of all, by
design, we attempt to hold down our risk and currently are only about half
invested in common stocks. Our other investments provided solid gains, but not
when compared with the equities. Second, we hold only minor positions in the
large growth companies that dominate the S&P 500. The frenzy that has driven up
prices for these securities may or may not be justified, but the resulting high
valuations seem inappropriate for a risk-averse fund. Third, we have large
exposure to electric utility and energy sector companies, groups that
significantly lagged. Fortunately, a series of individual security successes
provided respectable returns.
Stock market cycles, economic cycles, and credit cycles always seem similar, but
only when viewed through the rear window of history. We expect fairly strong
economic growth to continue and with inflation seemingly subdued, it appears
some time will elapse before the next move in Federal Reserve policy.
Nevertheless, when that action does come, we anticipate it will be another
incremental increase in interest rates. As for the stock market, we have not a
shadow of a doubt that it is overvalued and will decline, but we don't know when
or from what level.

differ significantly from the securities in the index. The index is unmanaged
and therefore does not reflect the cost of portfolio management or trading.

SMALL CAP PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The Small Cap Portfolio seeks maximum capital growth by investing primarily in
common stocks of small- and medium-size companies.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
Average Annual Total Returns:
One-year 2.84%
Three-year 23.22%
Five-year N/A
Since inception (4/30/94) 22.41%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The second quarter was obviously a big turnaround from
quarter one. From a big picture standpoint, fears of accelerating inflation
dissipated. With inflation continuing to remain at historically low levels, the
market psychology quickly began discounting the chances of any rate increase.
For the quarter, all averages were well into double-digit territory.
While the second quarter rebound was significant for small cap stocks, the
market generally continues to be driven by large cap stocks. For the six months
ended June 30, for instance, the S&P 500 Index was up twice as much as the
Russell 2000 Index. Moreover, the Russell 2000's Growth component still lagged
its Value component. We continue to expect market volatility and will take
advantage of that to scale out of stocks on surges and purchase on declines.
Our long term bullishness continues to be driven by the global competitiveness
that we believe is responsible for continued low inflation, and the global
movement towards capitalism which spawns new corporate opportunities. We are in
the midst of second quarter earnings releases as I write this letter, and so
far, corporate earnings appear to be quite good. The prices of small company
stocks are generally more volatile than the prices of large company stocks.

differ significantly from the securities in the index. The index is unmanaged
and therefore does not reflect the cost of portfolio management or trading.

GLOBAL CONTRARIAN PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The Global Contrarian Portfolio seeks to provide long-term growth of capital by
investing in foreign and domestic securities that are undervalued or presently
out of favor with other investors but have positive prospects for eventual
appreciation.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS:
One-year 12.24%
Three-year N/A
Five-year N/A
Since inception (3/31/95) 13.93%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The Global Contrarian Portfolio currently has a significant exposure to
commodity and/or "hard asset" related stocks in the U.S. as well as over-seas.
The portfolio also owns some small and obscure stocks worldwide which we believe
are neglected. Finally, we hold some emerging market debt instruments, either
corporate or sovereign. With the exception of gold related stocks, most
commodity and commodity related stocks were up modestly in the second quarter.
Both the U.S. and most foreign markets performed well in the second quarter. The
emerging market debt instruments also performed well.
Unlike financial assets which have done very well over the past 15 years, hard
assets such as natural resources, gold or even real estate have performed
poorly. That situation is, in our view, unlikely to last forever.

differ significantly from the securities in the index. The index is unmanaged

The risk associated with investing on a worldwide basis includes differences in
regulation of financial data and reporting and currency exchanges as well as
economic and political systems which may be different from those in the United
States. The prices of small company stocks are generally more volatile than the
prices of large company stocks.

AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The principal investment objective of the Aggressive Growth Portfolio is to seek
capital growth. The portfolio invests in a diversified collection of securities
believed to represent attractive growth opportunities.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS:
One-year 7.80%
Three-year N/A
Five-year N/A
Since inception (3/31/95) 14.65%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
With few exceptions, we have been very pleased with the quality and performance
of the companies in the portfolio. Only a small portion of our companies have
failed to deliver on their earnings projections. The vast majority have been
meeting or exceeding expectations. This is a strong statement, considering the
high expectations we have for companies in the portfolio. As a result, no
significant changes were made to the portfolio during the quarter.
The U.S. stock market is benefiting from near-perfect conditions. Corporate
earnings have been remarkably strong, so in most cases valuations have not
become excessive even though stock prices have risen substantially. Inflation
and interest rates remain in a secular decline, making fixed-income investments
less attractive compared with stocks. The baby boomers are just beginning to
ratchet up their savings for retirement, creating a huge demand for financial
assets. This surge in demand comes at a time when the supply of stocks has not
been growing as mergers, acquisitions and share repurchases have more than
offset new stock offerings.
Of course, history tells us that these good times will eventually come to an
end. But in the meantime, we plan to participate fully in this unusually good
environment for common stocks. In addition, the valuations afforded most stocks
remain well below those on the few large companies that dominate the major
market indexes. We believe that eventually market interest will rotate to the
sectors offering the best relative value. With our significant exposure to
small- and mid-capitalization stocks, the portfolio is positioned to benefit
from this expected rotation.

Hypothetical illustration based on past performance. Future performance will
vary. All returns reflect reinvested dividends. The portfolio's holdings may
differ significantly from the securities in the index. The index is unmanaged
and therefore does not reflect the cost of portfolio management or trading.

OBJECTIVE
The objective of the Core Growth Portfolio is to provide long-term capital
appreciation.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
TOTAL RETURN:
One-year N/A
Three-year N/A
Five-year N/A
Since inception (1/3/97) 0.80%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
While June's moderate gains don't give us cause for great celebration, the
advance was welcome given that the second quarter began with small cap stock
performance lagging that of the large caps by a magnitude not seen since 1937.
Larger cap stocks and blue-chip type names continued to log solid gains during
June. Despite the fact that large cap equities slightly outperformed the Russell
2000 Index and our relevant growth benchmarks for the month, the strong
performance of the big caps is in many ways a positive sign for the broader
market. It suggests that investors still believe strongly in domestic equities,
and as the economy remains stable it can only be a matter of time before that
support spreads to lift smaller cap stocks as well.
We are just completing the period of earnings pre-releases. Certainly, there
were some negative announcements regarding June numbers, some of which came from
companies we monitor in the Pilgrim Baxter universe. However, investors seemed
more willing to accept this round of earnings shortfalls as isolated,
company-specific events, rather than letting a few announcements infect an
entire sector.
Another sign that the health of smaller cap and growth stocks is returning,
initial public offerings and secondaries have resumed. The deals span more
industries than just technology and they are not being bid up or down as
egregiously as is the case when small cap stocks have peaked or gone too far.
During the next few weeks the market will be digesting and reacting to what we
expect to be some very positive earnings news. If investors are once again
willing to look at smaller companies and reward real growth in earnings, which
hasn't been the case for more than a year, then we believe there will be some
very positive days ahead for the types of companies we focus on.

GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The Growth & Income Portfolio's investment objective is long-term total return.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
TOTAL RETURN:
One-year N/A
Three-year N/A
Five-year N/A
Since inception (1/3/97) 13.34%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The first half of this year brought a range of market performance as the
small-cap sector underperformed for most of early 1997 before rallying sharply
in May. The historic advance of the overall market has been led by a very narrow
band of large-cap stocks.
Our investment philosophy remains the same -- to produce above average total
return over a range of market environments. We do that with a barbell strategy
in which we allocate 70%-85% of the portfolio to small and mid-cap common
stocks, and the remainder to income producing securities, typically preferred
stocks, convertibles and REITS.
Consistent with our philosophy, our sector allocation is well-diversified.
Energy is our single largest sector at over 17.2%. This is a significant
overweighting to the indices. We have been committed to the Energy sector since
we launched the portfolio and this commitment has resulted in positive
performance. The sector had been out of favor for most of the 1980's and early
1990's, creating attractive valuations compared to many other market sectors.
Additionally, the large integrated oil companies continue to increase their
capital spending and exploration programs. Advancements in drilling and
exploration technology have helped to expand profit margins for exploration
companies.
Many of these stocks significantly underperformed in March. We used weakness at
this time as a buying opportunity and expanded our position to several stocks in
the portfolio. This strategy proved successful as the entire sector has moved up
in the last quarter.

S&P 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The S&P 500 Index Portfolio seeks total return approximating that of the S&P 500
Index, including reinvestment of dividends, at a risk level consistent with that
of the S&P 500 Index.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
TOTAL RETURN:
One-year N/A
Three-year N/A
Five-year N/A
Since inception (1/3/97) 20.58%
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The financial markets, primarily the equity markets, have experienced tremendous
growth over the past 12 months. This surge is the result of strong corporate
profits, low inflation, moderate interest rates and tremendous cash flow into
the markets. The leaders in this upward move have been large capitalization
stocks. Most funds that invest in the small, medium, or a blend of market
capitalization size issues have not kept pace with the Dow or the S&P 500 Index
or related funds. They have, for the most part, provided respectable returns.
Going forward, it looks as though the economy could strengthen somewhat into the
second half of this year. Interest rates could move up some, but probably not
much unless inflation concerns surface. With stock valuations at high levels,
continued positive corporate earnings growth will be necessary for the market to
maintain its current levels or to move up.

SOCIAL AWARENESS PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The objective of the Social Awareness Portfolio is to provide long-term growth
of capital by investing primarily in the common stocks and other equity
securities of companies that, in the Adviser's opinion, conduct their business
in a way that enhances society's quality of life. The portfolio's social concern
criteria will necessarily limit the universe of securities that may be selected
for this portfolio. However, the Adviser believes the portfolio's objective of
long-term capital growth can be achieved despite this limitation.

Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The second quarter was great! Our discipline of sticking with companies with
strong prospects and attractive risk-reward characteristics paid off as market
sentiment shifted dramatically during the quarter.
One group where we have increased exposure during the quarter is energy stocks.
We are presently overweighted in this sector. Energy stocks have been relative
laggards, due to fear of collapsing prices. We feel the fundamental outlook
remains strong. Worldwide oil demand continues to be driven by emerging
economies. Prospects for natural gas have improved as the winter heating season
in the U.S. ended with a cold snap and spring injections into storage began
later than normal. Finally, consolidation of the refining segment is leading to
improved efficiencies. Demand is also rising. We are focusing on companies with
strong production profiles which allow us to benefit from any commodity strength
while protecting us in the event of a price decline.
We expect volatility in the overall market to continue, and have taken profits
as prices have neared our target valuations. The portfolio is presently selling
in line with its estimated future growth rate, based on 1997 estimates. Compared
to the S&P 500 Index, the portfolio sells at a lower price-earnings ratio and
has better long-term growth prospects.

STRATEGIC INCOME PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The Strategic Income Portfolio seeks to generate high current income by
investing at least 80 percent of its assets in income-producing securities,
including at least 40 percent of assets in a core group of U.S. government and
corporate fixed-income securities, and the remainder in other income-producing
securities.

</TABLE>
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The second quarter certainly turned out better than the first. The rise in the
stock market finally caught hold of small caps and that helped the fund. The
bond market also rallied in the second quarter and this boosted performance
across all bond sectors.
Looking forward, the biggest concern has to do with interest rates. If the Fed
raises short-term rates, long-term rates are sure to follow. This will create a
decline in bond prices. Higher long-term rates might also signal an end to the
market rally as money could stop flowing into the market due to the increased
attractiveness of fixed-income investments.

STELLAR PORTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The Stellar Portfolio seeks to maximize total return by investing approximately
15 percent to 25 percent of its assets in each of the following categories:
domestic equities, domestic bonds, foreign securities, real estate securities,
and precious metal and/or money market securities.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997

TOTAL RETURN:
<S> <C>
One-year N/A
Three-year N/A
Five-year N/A
Since inception (1/3/97) 5.31%
</TABLE>
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The second quarter has made up for the first quarter. The fund was down slightly
at the end of March but the surge in small-cap stocks has helped performance in
the second quarter giving us a nice positive return year-to-date.
The potential for rising interest rates poses a concern in regards to the
exposure the fund has in the financial sector (roughly 1/3 of stock holdings).
Valuation levels on these stocks will be the key to whether a reduction of
holdings in this sector is needed. The short-term money market holdings drag the
performance of the funds in a strong market, but should create a nice buffer
when stocks and bonds are down.

RELATIVE VALUE PROTFOLIO
OHIO NATIONAL FUND, INC.
OBJECTIVE
The Relative Value Portfolio seeks the highest total return as is consistent
with reasonable risk by investing in stocks which Star deems to represent
characteristics with low volatility, above-average yields and are undervalued
relative to the stocks comprising the S&P Composite Stock Index.
PERFORMANCE AS OF JUNE 30, 1997
TOTAL RETURN:
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
<S> <C>
One-year N/A
Three-year N/A
Five-year N/A
Since inception (1/3/97) 16.28%
</TABLE>
Returns represent past performance, which is no guarantee of future results.
Investment return and principal value will vary so that shares, when redeemed,
may be worth more or less than their original cost. Actual results for variable
annuity and variable universal life contracts will be lower due to contract
charges. Consult your contract for applicable charges for mortality and
expenses.
COMMENTS
The Relative Value Funds is performing very well relative to the S&P Index and
or other Growth funds. Last quarter the fund was up 17.18%, just off the S&P and
in the top 7% of the Morningstar Large-Cap Blend funds. The continuing focus of
the fund on large-cap stocks has been the key to performance as most of the
money flowing into the market is heading into the large-cap sector. If interest
rates remain low and and the economy continues to grow, the stock market should
do well. If inflation fears rise due to a high-growth economy and interest
rates also rise, money might flow from the stock market to fixed-income
investments. This will could trigger a downturn in the market. But for now we'll
enjoy the tremendous growth in the market and hopefully see it continue into
the second half of the year.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 1997 (Unaudited)
(1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Ohio National Fund, Inc. (Fund) is registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The Fund is a series investment company
which consists of sixteen separate investment portfolios that seek the
following investment objectives:
EQUITY PORTFOLIO - long-term growth of capital by investing principally in
common stocks or other equity securities. Current income is a secondary
objective.
MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO - maximum current income consistent with
preservation of capital and liquidity by investing in high quality money
market instruments.
BOND PORTFOLIO - high level of return consistent with preservation of
capital by investing primarily in high quality intermediate and long-term
debt securities.
OMNI PORTFOLIO - high level of long-term total return consistent with
preservation of capital by investing in stocks, bonds, and money market
instruments.
INTERNATIONAL PORTFOLIO - long-term capital growth by investing primarily
in common stocks of foreign companies.
CAPITAL APPRECIATION PORTFOLIO - maximum capital growth by investing
primarily in common stocks that are (1) considered to be undervalued or
temporarily out of favor with investors, or (2) expected to increase in
price over the short term.
SMALL CAP PORTFOLIO - maximum capital growth by investing primarily in
common stocks of small- and medium-sized companies.
GLOBAL CONTRARIAN PORTFOLIO - long-term growth of capital by investing in
foreign and domestic securities believed to be undervalued or presently out
of favor.
AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO - capital growth.
The following portfolios commenced operations on January 2, 1997:
CORE GROWTH PORTFOLIO - long-term capital appreciation.
GROWTH & INCOME PORTFOLIO - long-term total return by investing in equity
and debt securities focusing on small- and mid-cap companies that offer
potential for capital appreciation, current income, or both.
S&P 500 INDEX PORTFOLIO - total return that approximates that of the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index ("S&P 500") by investing in common stocks and
in stock index futures contracts hedged by U.S. Government obligations,
investment grade corporate bonds and cash equivalents.
SOCIAL AWARENESS PORTFOLIO - long-term capital growth by investing
primarily in common stocks and other equity securities of companies that,
in the Advisor's opinion, conduct their business in a way that enhances
society's quality of life.
STRATEGIC INCOME PORTFOLIO - high current income by investing at least 40%
of its assets in a core group of U.S. government and corporate fixed income
securities and the remainder in other income producing securities.
STELLAR PORTFOLIO - maximum total return by investing in domestic and
foreign securities (equity and fixed income), real estate, precious metal
securities, and money market securities.
RELATIVE VALUE PORTFOLIO - maximum total return consistent with reasonable
risk by investing primarily in equity securities.
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies:
Investments in the Money Market Portfolio are valued at amortized cost in
accordance with Rule 2a-7, which approximates market value. All net
investment income of the Money Market Portfolio is declared and paid daily
as a dividend to shareholders immediately before the computation of the net
asset value of Money Market Portfolio shares. Dividends are automatically
reinvested in additional Money Market Portfolio shares at the net asset
value immediately following such computation. Distributions arising from
net investment income from the remaining portfolios are declared and paid
to shareholders quarterly and are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Distributions arising from accumulated net realized capital gains are
recorded on the ex-dividend date and are distributed to shareholders at
least once a year.
For all other portfolios, securities which are traded on U.S. and foreign
stock exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets are valued at the last
sale price or, if there has been no sale that day, at the last bid reported
as of 4:00 p.m. Eastern time on each day the New York Stock Exchange is
open for unrestricted trading. Over-the-counter securities are valued at
the last bid price as of the close of trading on the Exchange. Short-term
investments (investments with remaining maturities of 60 days or less) are
valued at amortized cost and fixed income securities are valued by using
market quotations, or independent pricing services which use prices
provided by market makers or estimates of market value obtained

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
June 30, 1997 (Unaudited)
from yield data relating to instruments or securities with similar
characteristics. All investments and cash quoted in foreign currencies are
valued daily in U.S. dollars on the basis of the foreign currency exchange
rates prevailing at the time of such valuation.
Foreign currency exchange rates are generally determined prior to 4:00 p.m.
Eastern time. Occasionally, events affecting the value of foreign
investments and such exchange rates occur between the time at which they
are determined and the time of valuation, which in the case of the
International, Small Cap, Global Contrarian, Aggressive Growth, and Stellar
Portfolios, would not be reflected in the computation of the portfolios'
net asset value. If events materially affecting the value of such
securities or currency exchange rates occurred during such time period, the
securities are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith by or
under the direction of the Fund's Board of Directors.
In connection with purchases and sales of securities denominated in foreign
currencies, the Fund may enter into forward foreign currency exchange
contracts (forward contracts). A forward contract is a commitment to
purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate.
Additionally, the Fund may enter into such contracts to hedge certain other
foreign currency denominated investments. These contracts are recorded at
market value, and the related realized and unrealized foreign exchange
gains and losses are included in the statement of operations. In the event
that counterparties fail to settle these currency contracts or the related
foreign security trades, the Fund could be exposed to foreign currency
fluctuations.
Each portfolio other than the Money Market Portfolio may (a) write call
options traded on a registered national securities exchange if such
portfolio owns the underlying securities subject to such options, and
purchase call options for the purpose of closing out positions it has
written, (b) purchase put options on securities owned, and sell such
options in order to close its positions in put options, (c) purchase and
sell financial futures and options thereon, and (d) purchase and sell
financial index options; provided, however, that no option or futures
contract shall be purchased or sold if, as a result, more than one-third of
the total assets of the portfolio would be hedged by options or futures
contracts, and no more than 5% of any portfolio's total assets, at market
value, may be used for premiums on open options and initial margin deposits
on futures contracts. Options are recorded at market value, and the related
realized and unrealized gains and losses are included in the statement of
operations. The portfolios making use of options bear the market risk of an
unfavorable change in the price of any security underlying the options.
The Fund may invest in two kinds of financial futures contracts: stock
index futures contracts and interest rate futures contracts. Stock index
futures contracts are contracts developed by and traded on national
commodity exchanges whereby the buyer will, on a specified future date, pay
or receive a final cash payment equal to the difference between the actual
value of the stock index on the last day of the contract and the value of
the stock index established by the contract multiplied by the specific
dollar amount set by the exchange. Futures contracts may be based on
broad-based stock indexes such as the Standard & Poor's 500 Index or on
narrow-based stock indexes. A particular index will be selected according
to Ohio National Investments, Inc.'s ("ONI's"), the investment advisor to
the Fund, investment strategy for the particular portfolio. The Fund may
enter into such contracts to reduce the risk of fluctuation of portfolio
securities values or to take advantage of expected market fluctuations.
Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividend income
is recognized on the ex-dividend date (except in the case of foreign
securities in the International, Small Cap, Global Contrarian, Aggressive
Growth, and Stellar Portfolios, in which dividends are recorded as soon
after the ex-dividend date as the fund becomes aware of such dividends),
and interest income is accrued daily as earned. Net realized gain or loss
on investments and foreign exchange transactions are determined using the
first-in, first-out method except in the case of the Aggressive Growth
Portfolio in which the identified cost basis is used.
The books and records of all the portfolios are maintained in U.S. dollars.
Foreign currency amounts in the International, Small Cap, Global
Contrarian, Aggressive Growth and Stellar Portfolios are translated into
U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(1) market value of investments, other assets and liabilities--at exchange
rates prevailing at the end of the period.
(2) purchases and sales of investments, income and expenses--at the rates
of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transaction.
Although the net assets and the market value of the portfolios are
presented at the foreign exchange rates at the end of the period, the
portfolios do not generally isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign
exchange rates from the effect of changes in the market price of the
investments. However, the portfolios do isolate the effect of fluctuations
in foreign exchange rates when determining the gain or loss upon sale or
maturity of foreign-currency denominated debt obligations pursuant to
Federal income tax regulations.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)

Foreign investment and currency transactions may involve certain
considerations and risks not typically associated with investing in U.S.
companies and the U.S. Government. These risks, including re-evaluation of
currency and future adverse political and economic developments, could
cause investments and their markets to be less liquid and prices more
volatile than those of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. Government.
Each portfolio may acquire repurchase agreements from member banks of the
Federal Reserve System which ONI deems creditworthy under guidelines
approved by the Board of Directors, subject to the seller's agreement to
repurchase such securities at a mutually agreed upon date and price. The
repurchase price generally equals the price paid by the portfolio plus
interest negotiated on the basis of current short-term rates, which may be
more or less than the rate on the underlying portfolio securities. The
seller, under a repurchase agreement, is required to maintain as collateral
for the repurchase transaction securities in which the portfolio has a
perfected security interest with a value not less than 100% of the
repurchase price (including accrued interest). Securities subject to
repurchase agreements are held by the Fund's custodian or another qualified
custodian or in the Federal Reserve/Treasury book-entry system. Repurchase
agreements are considered to be loans by the portfolio under the 1940 Act.
For Federal income tax purposes, the Bond, Small Cap and Aggressive Growth
Portfolios had capital loss carryovers of $82,701, $229,009 and $1,425,782
respectively, at December 31, 1996. If not offset by capital gains, $82,701
and $47,306 will expire in 2003 in the Bond and Aggressive Growth
Portfolios respectively and $229,009 and $1,378,476 will expire in 2004 in
the Small Cap and Aggressive Growth Portfolios respectively. The Board of
Directors does not intend to authorize a distribution of any net realized
gain for a portfolio until the capital loss carryover has been offset or
expires.
It is the policy of the Fund to distribute to its shareholders
substantially all of its taxable income, thus gaining relief from Federal
income taxes under provisions of current tax regulations applicable to
investment companies of this type. Accordingly, no provision for Federal
income taxes has been made.
Most expenses of the Fund can be directly attributed to a portfolio.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are allocated between the
portfolios in the Fund based on average net assets.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in
net assets from operations during the reporting period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.
The gross unrealized appreciation and depreciation on investments in each
portfolio as of June 30, 1997 were as follows:
