Semi-Annual
Financial Statements
September 30, 1997
(Unaudited)
Dear Fellow Shareholder:
We are pleased to present the semi-annual financial statements of the Wayne
Hummer Money Fund Trust (the "Fund") for the period ended September 30, 1997.
Net assets under management at the end of this period totaled $264,538,636, an
increase of 11% in six months. Since its inception, the Fund has continued to
meet its objectives of liquidity and stability, which are the most important
considerations of short-term investing.
The seven day average yield on the Fund's portfolio for the period ended
September 30, 1997, was 4.95%; if dividends were reinvested the effective yield
was 5.06%. Since these figures represent historical data, future yields may be
higher or lower.
Due to slow economic growth, we expect interest rates to rise slightly towards
the end of the calendar year. We recently shortened the average maturity of the
portfolio to take advantage of these increases.
Since the Fund's objective is preservation of capital and maintenance of
liquidity, we do not purchase investments that we perceive to be risky or
potentially volatile. The Fund invests in high-quality, short-term securities;
takes no currency risks; does not enter in speculative derivative transactions
and uses only money market indexed floating or variable rate securities. We also
pay close attention to the maturity structure, credit quality, diversification,
and market price exposure of the Fund's portfolio.
As you know, the Fund provides a vehicle for earning a yield on investments
which reflects changes in current rates. Additionally, the Fund offers
convenient services such as automatic monthly purchases and check writing
privileges. You can make investing easy by having money deducted directly from
your checking account, savings or payroll check. Your Wayne Hummer Investment
Executive will personally handle your transactions and answer any questions.
We appreciate your continued support of the Fund and ask that you call or write
us if you have any questions about the Fund or your account.
Sincerely,
David P. Poitras
President
Wayne Hummer Money Fund Trust
An investment in the Fund is not a deposit or obligation of or guaranteed or
insured by the U.S. Government, any bank, the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation, or any other agency. There can be no assurance that the Fund will
be able to maintain a stable net asset value of $1.00 per share.

FUND OVERVIEW
Established in 1982, the primary objective of the Wayne Hummer Money Fund Trust
(the "Fund") is to maximize current income while preserving capital and
maintaining liquidity. The Fund is an excellent vehicle for short-term cash
management and for investors who need stability of principal. The Fund seeks to
maintain a stable $1.00 net asset value per share at all times, although there
is no guarantee that we will be able to do so.
The Fund's prospectus contains detailed information about permissible
investments.

1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
SECURITY VALUATION
Investments are stated at value. The Fund utilizes the amortized cost method
to determine value. In the event that a deviation of 1/2 of 1% or more exists
between a Portfolio's $1.00 per Share net asset value and the net asset value
as calculated by valuing the Portfolio securities based upon market
quotations, if available, or otherwise based upon a matrix system approved by
the Board of Trustees, or if there is any other deviation which the Fund
believes would result in a material dilution to Shareholders or purchasers,
the Board of Trustees of the Fund promptly will consider what action should
be taken.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
Security transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Investment income
is recorded on the accrual basis and includes amortization of premium and
discount on investments.
2. FUND SHARE VALUATION AND DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Fund Shares are sold and redeemed on a continuous basis at net asset value.
Net asset value per Share is determined on each day the New York Stock
Exchange is open for trading as of the close of trading on the Exchange and
at 3:00 p.m. Chicago time on each other day during which there is a
sufficient degree of trading in securities of the Fund's Portfolio so as to
affect materially the net asset value of the Shares by dividing the value of
net assets (total assets less liabilities) by the total number of Shares
outstanding. Dividends are declared daily and distributed monthly in the form
of additional Shares at net asset value unless the Shareholder elects to have
dividends paid in cash, in which case they are credited monthly to the
Shareholder's brokerage account with Wayne Hummer Investments LLC.
3. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
It is the Fund's policy to comply with the special provisions of the Internal
Revenue Code available to investment companies and, in the manner provided
therein, to distribute all of its taxable income, as well as any net realized
gain on sales of investments. Such provisions were complied with and
therefore no federal income tax provision is required.
4. TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Fund has an Investment Advisory and Management Agreement and a Portfolio
Accounting Services Agreement with Wayne Hummer Management Company
("Investment Adviser"), and a Distribution Agreement and a Shareholder
Service Agreement with Wayne Hummer Investments LLC ("Distributor and
Shareholder Service Agent"). The shareholders of the Investment Adviser are
the Voting Members of the Distributor and Shareholder Service Agent. For
advisory and management services and facilities furnished, the Fund pays fees
on a declining annual basis ranging from .50 of 1% on the first $500 million
of average daily net assets to .275 of 1% of average daily net assets in
excess of $2.5 billion. The Investment Adviser is obligated to reimburse the
Fund to the extent that the Fund's ordinary operating expenses, including the
fee of the Investment Adviser, exceed 1% of average daily net assets on an
annual basis. During the period ended September 30, 1997, and the year ended
March 31, 1997, the Fund incurred management fees of $623,892 and $1,097,662,
respectively.
For portfolio accounting services, the Fund pays the Investment Adviser a
fee based on the level of average daily net assets plus out-of-pocket expenses.
The Fund reimburses the Shareholder Service Agent for the approximate cost of
processing Fund Share transactions and maintaining Shareholder accounts.
Certain trustees of the Fund are also officers or directors of the
Investment Adviser or Voting Members of the Distributor and Shareholder Service
Agent. During the period ended September 30, 1997, and the year ended March 31,
1997, the Fund made no direct payments to its officers and incurred trustee fees
for its unaffiliated trustees of $12,000 and $24,519, respectively.
