Dear Contractowner:

Arthur V. Ferrara


On the Economy

     The first  half of 1995 was a period of  transition  for both the U.S.  and
global economies and financial markets.

     The slowing  economy in the U.S.  and the  expectation  of Federal  Reserve
easing of interest  rates have been very  supportive  of the markets  during the
first half of 1995.

     The  current   conventional  wisdom  is  that  real  economic  growth  will
strengthen  during the third quarter and fourth quarters.  If such  expectations
are realized, the Fed will have accomplished a "soft landing."

     Abroad,   the  global  economy  was  one  of  moderate   growth  with  mild
inflationary forces.  Consistent with their economies,  the stock market returns
in the United Kingdom,  Germany, and Japan were weak during the first six months
of 1995 when compared, in U.S. dollar terms, to the U.S. stock market.


On Our Financial Strength

     Once  again,  we are proud to  report  that as of June 30,  1995,  both The
Guardian  Insurance & Annuity  Company  (GIAC),  issuer of Value Guard,  and its
parent,  The Guardian Life Insurance  Company of America,  continue to enjoy the
highest ratings  available from four of the nation's leading  insurance  company
evaluators:  Moody's (Aaa), Standard & Poor's (AAA), A.M. Best (A++), and Duff &
Phelps (AAA).  Although  these ratings do not apply to Value Guard's  underlying
variable  investment  options,  which are subject to the risks of  investing  in
securities, GIAC's triple-A ratings reflect its ability to meet its guarantee of
the contract's Fixed-Rate Option and pre-retirement death benefit.

     Thank you for continuing to invest for your future through GIAC.


Regards,


/s/  Arthur V. Ferrara
Arthur V. Ferrara, CLU
Chairman of the Board & Chief Executive Officer
The Guardian Insurance & Annuity Company

The Guardian Park Avenue Fund


[Photo of Charles E. Albers, Portfolio Manager]

Q. How did the Fund perform during the first six months of 1995?

A. The Guardian Park Avenue Fund performed very well during the first six months
of 1995. During this period,  the Fund had a total return of 20.53 percent.* The
Fund slightly  outperformed the S&P 500 Index, which had a total return of 20.11
percent.#

   Of course, the longer-term results are more significant for investors who are
seeking to build wealth over time.  From this  perspective,  The  Guardian  Park
Avenue  Fund has also done  well over  longer  time  periods.  For the five- and
ten-year  periods ended June 30, 1995,  average  annual total returns were 15.50
percent and 15.36 percent, respectively.* As the chart below indicates, based on
total returns,  for the periods ended June 30, 1995, the Fund  outperformed  its
Lipper peer  group--the  group of mutual funds with  investment  objectives  and
policies  similar  to those of the Fund,  over the  one-,  five-,  and  ten-year
periods.  The Fund ranked in the top fifteen  percent of the Lipper Growth Funds
category  for both the five- and  ten-year  periods  and in the top half for the
one-year period.+

Q. What strategies did you use during
this period?

A. For many years, our fundamental  strategic  approach to portfolio  management
has been a hybrid: It combines a quantitative  stock selection system as well as
fundamental  judgments  about the  market  sectors  and  individual  securities.
Together  these two elements  work in a synergistic  fashion.  It is a "top-down
plus bottom-up"  approach.  Portfolio  manager judgment comes into play from the
top down, making the strategic  positioning  decisions for the Fund's portfolio,
while the stock  scoring  system helps  identify  individual  securities  in the
particular  sectors that the portfolio  manager has  selected.  Let me explain a
little bit more.

   Our  proprietary  stock  scoring  system,  which  we have  been  continuously
developing and refining since 1972, helps us locate attractive stocks. We follow
a  universe  of  approximately  1,300  stocks  and create a score for each stock
weekly.  Using the stock's score,  we determine the relative  attractiveness  of
buying, holding, and selling each security in our portfolio. The other essential
element of our process is portfolio  manager  judgment.  This comes into play as
the portfolio manager,  among other things,  determines the portfolio allocation
between large-cap and small-cap segments of the market; determines the portfolio

*  Total return  figures shown are  historical  and assume the  reinvestment  of
   dividends and  distributions  and the deduction of all Fund  expenses.  Total
   return  figures do not take into  account any sales  charges that an investor
   may incur when purchasing shares of the Fund.

#  The S&P 500 Index is an unmanaged  index that is generally  considered  to be
   representative  of U.S.  stock  market  activity.  The S&P 500  Index  is not
   available  for  investment  and its returns do not reflect any sales  charges
   which an investor may have to pay when purchasing shares of a fund.

+  Lipper rankings were reported in Lipper's Mutual Funds  Performance  Analysis
   Special  Report,  2nd Quarter  1995.  Rankings for the periods ended June 30,
   1995 illustrate the Fund vs. other growth funds in the specified period.  The
   Fund ranked 18 out of a field of 145 growth funds over a ten-year period,  26
   out of 230  for the  five-year  period  and  203 out of 516 for the  one-year
   period.  Lipper  rankings  are  based on total  return  and do not take  into
   account any deductions for sales loads.

allocation  between  different  economic  sectors,  such as  energy,  financial,
technology, etc.; and develops procedures to guide portfolio rebalancing.

   Both  aspects of our approach  contributed  to our good  relative  investment
performance during the first half of 1995. In general,  the stock scoring system
successfully distinguished the better and poorer performing stocks. Although all
areas of the stock market did well this half of the year (even the stocks in our
bottom-ranked  quintile  had an average gain of 14.9  percent),  the stocks that
were ranked in our top  quintile  showed an average  gain of 20.4  percent.  The
stock  scoring  system  was  clearly a  valuable  tool that  enhanced  portfolio
performance during this period.

   The  portfolio  manager's  judgment  also  contributed  to the  above-average
results.  Our judgment on major issues  during this period was pretty good.  For
example,  the Fund was  substantially  overweighted  in  technology  during  the
period, and it was the best performing sector of the twelve which we monitor. At
the same time, the portfolio was substantially under-weighted in utility company
shares, and that sector substantially underperformed in the market. Also, during
the first  quarter  of 1995,  we  surmised  that the  continuing  decline in the
external value of the U.S. dollar would be an important stimulant for the shares
of U.S.  companies  with  sizable  global  exposure.  As a  result,  we  moved a
significant portion of the portfolio into shares of these companies,  which were
generally  large-cap  companies in either the technology or consumer  nondurable
sectors. The move turned out very favorably, as many of those stocks were market
leaders  during the balance of the first half of the year.  We believe the theme
of  large-cap  growth-type  companies  leading  the market is likely to continue
through the balance of 1995 and we will  continue to move the  portfolio in this
direction.

Q.  What is your outlook on the economy?

A. The Federal  Reserve has  attempted to engineer a "soft  landing" of the U.S.
economy in 1995, in order to contain inflationary  pressures.  At this point, it
appears that they have been generally successful. By "soft-landing," we mean two
or more successive quarters where real gross domestic product grows at less than
a two-percent rate and where a recession is avoided.  Currently, it appears that
somewhat more rapid growth may resume in the fourth quarter of 1995 and continue
into 1996.

   Looking  forward for the next five years,  we believe that two major areas of
growth  stand out:  first,  high-tech  capital  equipment  including  exports of
high-tech capital goods; and second,  consumer  spending on healthcare,  travel,
and recreation.

Q.  What about the stock market?

A.  Prospects for further stock market gains in the years ahead seem  promising.
As the generation of "baby-boomers"  ages, and their retirement  financing needs
become more clear to them,  the flow of money into the stock market seems likely
to increase.  This investing may take many forms:  direct,  mutual funds, 401(k)
plans,  pension  plans,  etc.  Corporate  stock  buy-backs  have also  become an
important  driving force in the marketplace,  and the flow of funds from outside
the U.S.  seems  likely to  increase.  When you combine  these  factors with the
effects of an  accommodating  monetary  policy and a  reasonable  level of stock
valuation, we believe that the basic conditions exist for potentially continuing
the bullish stock market.

   "Some portfolio  managers try to get the market to conform to their theories.
We believe it is more fruitful to simply perceive the 'way of the universe,' and
then get ourselves--and our portfolio--aligned with it."

Comparison of Common Stocks Held by the Fund and the S&P 500 by Economic Sector

The two sectors  where the Fund had a significant  overweighting  versus the S&P
500 were technology and basic industry.  The  overweighting in technology was an
important aid to performance in the first half of 1995.

A  hypothetical  $10,000  investment  made at the inception of The Guardian Park
Avenue Fund on June 1, 1972, would have grown to $271,285 on June 30, 1995. This
represents a total return of 2,613 percent!  We compare our  performance to that
of the S&P 500,  which is an unmanaged  index that is generally  considered  the
performance  benchmark of the U.S. stock market. The starting point for the Fund
of $9,550  reflects its initial sales charge of 4.5 percent.  The starting point
for the S&P 500 Index of $10,000 does not reflect a sales charge.  While you may
not invest  directly  in the S&P 500 Index,  a similar  hypothetical  investment
would have had a total return of 1,121 percent and would now be worth  $122,052.
The  cost-of-living  index,  as measured by the consumer  price index,  which is
generally  representative  of the level of U.S.  inflation,  is also provided to
lend a more complete understanding of the investment's real worth.

   These  figures  represent  past  performance  and are no  guarantee of future
results.  Investment  return and principal  value will  fluctuate and redemption
value may be more or less than original cost.

   Total return figures are historical and assume the  reinvestment of dividends
and distributions and the deduction of all fund expenses and the current maximum
sales charge of 4.5 percent except where noted. Prior to August 25, 1988, shares
of the Fund were offered at a higher sales charge,  so actual returns would have
been somewhat lower.

                    THE GUARDIAN/VALUE LINE SEPARATE ACCOUNT

                          NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

                            June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)


Note 1 -- Organization

     The Guardian/Value  Line Separate Account (the Account),  a unit investment
trust  registered  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  as amended,  was
established by The Guardian Insurance & Annuity Company,  Inc. (GIAC) on October
6, 1980.  GIAC is a wholly  owned  subsidiary  of The  Guardian  Life  Insurance
Company of America  (Guardian Life).  GIAC issues the deferred  variable annuity
contracts  offered  through the Account.  GIAC  provides for  accumulations  and
benefits under the contracts by crediting the net premium  purchase  payments to
one or more investment  divisions within the Account or to the Fixed Rate Option
(FRO).  Amounts  allocated  to the FRO  are  maintained  by GIAC in its  general
account.  The  Guardian  Park  Avenue  Fund(R),  one of the  investment  options
available  under  the  contracts,  has an  investment  advisory  agreement  with
Guardian  Investor  Services  Corporation  (GISC),  a wholly owned subsidiary of
GIAC. A tax-qualified  investment  division and a  non-tax-qualified  investment
division have been  established  within each investment  option available in the
Account.

     Under  applicable  insurance law, the assets and liabilities of the Account
are clearly  identified and distinguished  from the other assets and liabilities
of GIAC.  The assets of the  Account  will not be charged  with any  liabilities
arising out of any other business  conducted by GIAC, but the obligations of the
Account,  including the promise to make annuity  payments,  are  obligations  of
GIAC.


Note 2 -- Significant Accounting Policies

     The  following  is a summary  of  significant  accounting  policies  of the
Account.


Investments

     (a) Net  proceeds of  payments  made by  contractowners  to the Account are
invested by the Account's  investment  divisions in shares of the  corresponding
Funds at net asset value.  All  distributions  made by a Fund are  reinvested in
shares of the same Fund.

     (b) The market value of  investments is based on the net asset value of the
respective Funds as of their close of business on the valuation date.

     (c) Investment  transactions are accounted for on the trade date and income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date.

     (d) The cost of  investments  sold is  determined  on a last in,  first out
(LIFO) basis.

     During the six months  ended June 30, 1995 and the year ended  December 31,
1994,  purchases  of  shares  of all of the  Funds  aggregated  $12,176,538  and
$37,368,355,  respectively.  Aggregate  sales  of  shares  of all  of the  Funds
amounted to  $21,568,436  and  $40,735,309 in the six months ended June 30, 1995
and the year ended December 31, 1994, respectively.


The Annuitant Mortality Fluctuation Fund

     The  Annuitant  Mortality  Fluctuation  Fund is funded by GIAC and has been
established in response to various regulatory  requirements and provides for any
possible adverse experience.


Federal Income Taxes

     The  operations  of the Account are part of the  operations  of GIAC and as
such,  are included in the combined tax return of GIAC.  GIAC is taxed as a life
insurance company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

                                       11

<PAGE>

                    THE GUARDIAN/VALUE LINE SEPARATE ACCOUNT

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)


     Under the tax law, no federal income taxes are payable by GIAC with respect
to the operations of the Account.

     Owners of non-tax-qualified  contracts are taxed directly on the investment
income and realized capital gains  distributed by the underlying mutual funds to
the Account's non-tax-qualified divisions.


Annuity Reserves

     Annuity reserves are computed for currently payable contracts  according to
the 1971 Individual  Annuity  Mortality  Table and the 1983  Individual  Annuity
Table.  The  assumed  interest  rate is 4.0%.  Charges to annuity  reserves  for
mortality and expense risks  experience  are  reimbursed to GIAC if the reserves
required  are  less  than  originally  estimated.  If  additional  reserves  are
required, GIAC reimburses the Account.

Note 4 --  Administrative  and  Mortality  and Expense Risk Charges

     Contractual charges paid to GIAC include:

     (1) an annual fee to cover GIAC's administrative expenses to be deducted on
each contract  anniversary  before  annuitization  and upon  surrender  prior to
annuitization. Such charge is $30 for a Single Purchase Payment Contract and $35
for a Flexible Purchase Payment Contract;

                    NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)


     (2) a charge for mortality and expense risks is computed daily and is equal
to an  annual  rate  of  1% of  the  average  daily  net  assets  applicable  to
contractowners;

     (3)  contingent   deferred  sales  charges  on  certain  partial  or  total
surrenders.  These  charges are assessed  against  redemptions  and paid to GIAC
during the first six contract years for a Single Purchase Payment Contract.  For
a Flexible  Purchase Payment  Contract,  each payment is subject to a contingent
deferred sales charge for six years; and

     (4) a charge for premium taxes deducted from either the contract payment or
upon annuitization, as determined in accordance with applicable state law.

     Currently,  GIAC makes no charge  against the  Account  for GIAC's  federal
income taxes.  However,  GIAC reserves the right to charge taxes attributable to
the Account in the future.

June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)


o The Guardian Park Avenue Fund


Note 1. Accounting Policies

The Guardian  Park Avenue Fund (the Fund) is a diversified  open-end  management
investment  company  registered  under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940,  as
amended (1940 Act).  GPAF,  originally  organized as a Delaware  corporation  in
1970, was reorganized into a Massachusetts  business trust on April 28, 1989. On
December 30, 1992, a majority of the  outstanding  shares of GPAF voted in favor
of  reorganizing  the Fund as a  series  of the Park  Avenue  Portfolio,  also a
Massachusetts  business trust. The  reorganization is expected to be effected in
February, 1993. Significant accounting policies of the Fund are as follows:


Investments

     Equity and debt securities  listed on domestic  exchanges are valued at the
closing  sales  prices on such  exchanges,  or,  lacking any sales,  at the mean
between closing bid and asked prices.  Securities traded in the over-the-counter
market  are  valued  using the last  sales  price,  when  available.  Otherwise,
over-the-counter  securities  are valued at the mean  between  the bid and asked
prices or yield  equivalents  as obtained  from one or more  dealers that make a
market in the securities.

     Certain debt  securities  may be valued each business day by an independent
pricing service ("Service")  approved by the Board of Trustees.  Debt securities
for which  quoted bid  prices,  in the  judgment  of the  Service,  are  readily
available and  representative  of the bid side of the market,  are valued at the
mean  between the quoted bid prices (as  obtained by the Service from dealers in
such  securities)  and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its
evaluation of the market for such  securities).  Other debt  securities that are
valued by the Service are carried at fair value as  determined  by the  Service,
based on methods which include  consideration  of: yields or prices of municipal
securities of comparable quality,  coupon,  maturity and type; indications as to
values from dealers; and general market conditions.

     Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, including
certain mortgage-backed securities and restricted securities, are valued at fair
value as  determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Fund's Board
of Trustees.Repurchase  agreements are carried at cost which approximates market
value (see Note 4). Investment transactions are recorded on the date of purchase
or sale.

     Net realized  gain or loss on sales of  investments  is  determined  on the
basis of identified cost. Interest income, including amortization of premium and
discount,  is recorded when earned.  Dividends  are recorded on the  ex-dividend
date.


Distributions to Shareholders

GPAF  distributes  each  year  as  dividends  or  capital  gains   distributions
substantially all realized earnings by the Fund, if any.

     All  dividends or  distributions  to the  shareholders  are recorded on the
ex-dividend  date. Such  distributions  are determined in conformity with income
tax regulations,  which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP). Differences between the recognition of income on an income tax basis and
a GAAP basis may cause  temporary over  distributions  of net realized gains and
net investment income.


Federal Income Taxes

The Fund qualifies to be taxed as a "regulated  investment  company" and as such
(and by complying with the applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of
1986,  as amended  (Code)) will not be subject to federal  income tax on taxable
income   (including  any  realized   capital  gains)  which  is  distributed  to
shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.


Note 2. Investment Advisory Agreements and Payments to Related Parties

The Fund has an investment  advisory  agreement with Guardian  Investor Services
Corporation  (GISC),  a  wholly-owned  subsidiary of The Guardian Life Insurance
Company of America.  The investment  advisory  agreement  provides,  among other
things,  for the quarterly  payment by the Fund of a fee calculated at an annual
rate of one-half of 1% of the average daily net assets of the Fund.

     In  addition,  pursuant  to the  investment  advisory  agreement,  if total
expenses of the Fund,  as defined,  exceed 1% per annum of the average daily net

                                       20

<PAGE>

asset  value of the  Fund,  GISC has  agreed to assume  any such  excess.  Total
expenses of the Fund did not exceed  this  limitation  for the six months  ended
June 30, 1995.

     The Fund has a distribution  agreement with GISC under which GISC agrees to
assist as needed in the sale and  distribution of the Fund shares when sold with
a sales charge. As compensation for its services,  GISC received aggregate sales
commissions of $1,121,908 for the six months ended June 30, 1995.

     The aggregate  remuneration  paid by the Fund to its unaffiliated  trustees
($500 per meeting plus and annual stipend of $1,000)  amounted to $7,600 for the
six months ended June 30, 1995.


Note 3. Underwriting Agreement and Distribu-tion Plan

     The Fund has entered into an  Underwriting  Agreement with GISC pursuant to
which  GISC  serves as the  principal  underwriter  for  shares of the Fund.  In
addition,  GISC and the Fund has entered into a Distribution  Plan and Agreement
pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the  Investment  Company Act of 1940 (the  "Plan").
Pursuant to the Plan the Fund pays GISC, on a monthly basis, a distribution  fee
of up to .15% on an annual  basis of its  average  daily net  assets.  Under the
Plan,  GISC uses the fees  received from the Fund to pay  distribution  expenses
incurred  during  the  fiscal  year,  including  the  payment of fees to dealers
selling shares of the Fund, the payment of advertising costs and the payment for
the  preparation,  printing and  distribution  of  prospectuses  to  prospective
investors.


Note 4. Repurchase Agreements

Collateral  under  repurchase  agreements  take the form of either cash or fully
negotiable  U.S.  Government   securities.   Repurchase   agreements  are  fully
collateralized  (including  the  interest  earned  thereon) and marked to market
daily  while the  agreements  remain in  force.  If the value of the  underlying
securities falls below the value of the repurchase price plus accrued  interest,
the Fund will require the seller to deposit  additional  collateral  by the next
business day. If the request for additional collateral is not met, or the seller
defaults,  the Fund maintains the right to sell the collateral and may claim any
resulting  loss  against  the  seller.  The  Board  of  Trustees  evaluates  the
creditworthiness  of broker-dealers  and banks engaged in repurchase  agreements
with the Fund. The Fund will not enter into repurchase  agreements for more than
one week's  duration  (or invest in any other  securities  which are not readily
marketable) if more than 10% of its net assets would be so invested. On December
30,  1992,  the  shareholders  of GPAF  voted to amend  the  Fund's  fundamental
investment  policies to permit up to 15% of the Fund's net assets to be invested
in securities which are not readily marketable,  including repurchase agreements
which mature in more than seven days.


Note 5. Investment Transactions

Purchases  and  proceeds  from  sales  of   securities   (excluding   short-term
securities) amounted to $223,250,303 and $195,735,268,  respectively, during the
six months ended June 30, 1995.

     Gross unrealized  appreciation  and depreciation of investments  aggregated
$210,625,185  and  $(8,626,802),   respectively,  resulting  in  net  unrealized
appreciation of $201,998,383 at June 30, 1995.

     The cost of  investments  owned at June 30,  1995 for  Federal  income  tax
purposes was the same for financial reporting purposes.

Note 7. Line of Credit

A $20,000,000 line of credit available to The Guardian Park Avenue Fund has been
established with Morgan Guaranty Trust Company.  The rate of interest charged on
any  borrowings is based upon the  prevailing  Federal Funds rate at the time of
the loan plus .25%  calculated on a 360 day basis per annum.  For the six months
ended June 30, 1995, the Fund had not borrowed against this line of credit.
