  As the table indicates, total investment returns on mutual funds in each of
the Lipper categories against which our Funds are measured were negative during
the three months ended June 30, 2000. Returns on our Funds followed the same
pattern, although Total Return Trust had a small gain and, along with Value
Trust, performed somewhat better than the average of other funds in its Lipper
category.

  Detailed comments on the performance of each Fund appear in the portfolio
managers' comments on the following pages. Long-term investment results of the
Funds are shown in the portfolio managers' comments and the performance

/1/ Total return measures investment performance in terms of appreciation or
    depreciation in net asset value per share plus dividends and any capital
    gain distributions. It assumes that dividends and distributions were
    reinvested at the time they were paid.
/2/ Value Trust is now included in Lipper Analytical Services' "Large-Cap Growth
    Fund" category (funds which normally invest in larger capitalization issues
    with earnings expected to grow significantly faster than earnings of stocks
    included in Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Index). Special Investment Trust
    is included in the "Mid-Cap Core Fund" category (funds which normally invest
    in mid-sized capitalization issues, with wide latitude in the companies in
    which they invest). Total Return Trust is included in the "Multi-Cap Value
    Fund" category (funds which normally invest in issues with a variety of
    market capitalization sizes, which are considered to be undervalued relative
    to stocks in the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Index).

Portfolio Managers' Comments
Second Quarter 2000

Market Commentary

  During the first half, the market, like the worm Ourobouros, began and ended
in about the same place, but used the time to explore a lot of territory. The
tech-laden NASDAQ started the year at 4,186, soared to 5,132 on March 10, fell
to 3,042 on May 24, and at this writing is 4,093. The S&P displayed less
volatility, but likewise managed to make little progress.

  Over the past year, the S&P has returned a little more than a passbook savings
account, but has generated considerably more angst. The NASDAQ, in contrast, has
compensated investors for its vicissitudes with a total return of almost 45% in
the last twelve months. This is terrific, but the momentum has clearly gone out
of that index, and is unlikely to return in anything like its former glory, in
our opinion. In early March, the NASDAQ was up over 24% year to date and 100% in
twelve months. In the last ninety days it fell 6%, and now stands below where it
started the year.

  The problem for both markets has been interest rates, not earnings, or at
least not current earnings. The Fed has been tightening for about a year and its
attempt to slow the economy has begun to show some results. Earnings have been
fine and the current earnings season looks to be no exception. In the first
quarter of this year, S&P earnings rose 23% year over year. For all of 1999,
they rose 19%. For the quarter just ended, it looks like another 20% year over
year gain.

  A different trend becomes evident when you slice the data this way: over the
past five years, S&P earnings have risen from $32.68 in 1994 to an estimated
$57.70 this year, an increase of 77%. The market has risen 254% with dividends
reinvested over the same period. Earnings grew a little over 10% per year and
the market went up over 20% per year. Valuations expanded sharply.

  In 1999 the market's gain slowed to that of earnings, rising 19.6% while
earnings rose 19%. The market's multiple thus stayed the same as it had been in
1998. Now it has begun to decline.

  In the first quarter, earnings were up 23%, and the S&P was up 2%. In the
second quarter, with earnings estimated to be up 20%, the market fell almost 3%.

  Markets are discounting mechanisms; prices and the path of prices reflect
visible fundamentals and expectations about the future. In the mid to late 90's
the market correctly discerned that the U.S. economy was on a path of rising
earnings growth rates, from the 7% long-term post-war average to one that
exceeded 10%, fueled by rising productivity that permitted speedier growth
without an accompanying increase in inflation. The rising productivity of
capital coupled with an increasing growth rate of earnings led to a sharp rise
in the market's overall valuation. That rise was concentrated in technology
stocks, which began the second half of the decade at modest, and ended at
monstrous, valuations.

  At the beginning of 1995, technology stocks represented 10% of the S&P 500;
today they total over 30% of the market's value. In 1995 they were demonstrably
undervalued; today valuations hover at all-time highs and require superior
growth in order to be maintained.

  The inability of the market to make progress despite powerful current earnings
growth is not just the result of the drag of interest rates brought on by Fed
tightening, but of what those rates portend: slowing growth. As the rate of
earnings growth slows, so too does the justifiable valuation of the

market. For the market to make much progress, I think investors will need to
believe they see the end of Fed tightening. Good earnings by themselves will
just be incorporated into the market via lower multiples, not via higher prices
(unless those earnings arrive at companies with suitably modest valuations).

  Over time, market prices have tended to track fundamentals. The long-term
return of stocks has been a function of beginning dividend yields and long-term
earnings growth. During the past five years, prices have risen much faster than
earnings as positive fundamentals have been incorporated into prices on a
leveraged basis.

  The combination of long-term evidence and short-term experience has led
investors to believe positive near-term fundamentals are highly correlated with
positive stock price behavior. Valuation seems to have been forgotten, due in
part to its apparent absence in the price/performance equation over the last
several years, and no doubt in part by the dismal record of value investors over
the same period.

  The question for investors is always: where is the best value in the market?
Five years ago, growth was undervalued and technology was particularly
undervalued. After years of spectacular outperformance, we think growth is at
best fairly valued and that many (not all) of the largest, most visible
technology names are overpriced.

  In contrast, outside of the growth indices, many stocks appear undervalued,
with the median price-earnings ratio of the 1,700 stocks in the Value Line index
at only 13.3x earnings. The re-appearance of dormant former corporate raiders
such as Carl Icahn and the formation of numerous buy-out funds testify to the
opportunities presented by modest valuations in many "old economy" companies.

  We believe that in the next few years growth investors will become
reacquainted with valuation as high growth names underperform their
fundamentals, and that value investors will once again become reacquainted with
solid performance in their portfolios.

* Inception: December 1, 1994.

  The results tabulated above show that for the first six months of this year,
the assets you've had in the Value Trust would have been more productively
employed under the mattress than in the securities in our portfolio. Stocks for
the past year have been on their version of Mr. Toad's Wild Ride: lots of
jerking, moving, and churning, all to end up about where you began, at least if
you were prudently diversified across a broad array of securities. The Value
Line index of about 1,700 stocks equally weighted fell 12.43%, in the past year,
while the NYSE composite declined 0.80% over the same period.

  The strong returns of diversified funds for the year ended June 30 either
attest to the superior stock selection skills of professional money managers, or
are just one of the occasional good outcomes scattered randomly in a long, dull
period of mediocrity. As I wrote last quarter, when two-thirds of active
managers outperformed the index, money managers appear to have developed an
unwavering belief in the ability of the leading technology companies to beat the
market, regardless of valuation, mainly because that's what they have done for
the past five years. That five-year period has been so strong for large,
especially technology-oriented, growth funds that they now are ahead of the S&P
500 for all time periods longer than six months shown above. The
underperformance of all broadly diversified funds, and the worse performance of
large growth funds during the second quarter, are consistent with the
continuing, significant commitment to technology on the part of professional
investors.

  In the past few weeks several high-profile technology companies, including
Lucent, Agilent, Lexmark, BMC, and Computer Associates, have expressed caution
about earnings growth, leading to large declines in their share prices. At
current levels of valuation, the shares of the so-far unaffected companies such
as Sun, EMC, Cisco, and Oracle, need continuing upside surprises to maintain
their present prices, in my opinion. Even the formerly impregnable semiconductor
index, up over 100% in the past year, has begun to wobble. Many leading
companies in this sector are down 30% in the past few months and the index
itself has just fallen below its 50-day moving average.

  We have reduced our technology weighting to around 24% of the Fund, versus
over 30% for the S&P 500. We don't have any a priori view about what the right
relative position should be, but we are comfortable being underweighted.

Portfolio Managers' Comments -- Continued

  As weakness has been spreading in the formerly dominant technology space,
strength has slowly begun to appear in the broader market. The Value Line index
is now above its 50-week moving average for the first time in about a year.
Management buyout activity is strong among mostly smaller companies. The long-
lagging financials have begun to perk up and leading financials such as
Citigroup and Merrill Lynch have recently made new highs, often a precursor of
broadening performance in the overall market, as well as in that sector.

  Our portfolio reflects the recovery underway in formerly lagging areas. Eight
of our ten best performing stocks in the quarter were companies whose shares had
performed very poorly last year. The results in our lagging names in the quarter
were trend-less: a mix of formerly strong names such as AOL, WPP, and Nextel,
and some formerly weak ones such as Bank One, Bank of America, and Storage
Technology.

  We bought one stock in the quarter, Eastman Kodak, and sold one, Mandalay
Resort Group. Kodak has lagged the market for years as investors worried about
the effect of digital photography on their globally dominant conventional film
business. Digital is experiencing explosive growth, with camera units up 95%
last year; but conventional camera units also rose, growing 12%. In the second
quarter, conventional picture taking rose 8% in the U.S. We think Kodak,
currently selling around $56, is worth close to $100. We expect the company to
generate free cash equal to almost half of its current market capitalization
over the next five years.

  We sold our Mandalay for mostly technical reasons: we owned a very large and
growing percentage of the company's outstanding stock due to its aggressive
share repurchase program. This bumped us up against regulatory constraints. Even
a large percentage of the stock represented a very small percentage of our
assets, making its impact on our performance minimal. We solved the problem by
selling several million shares back to the company, and the balance to other
funds in our complex whose asset size better fits Mandalay's market
capitalization.

  If you took money from your mattress at the end of the quarter and put it in
the Value Trust, you may wish to consider a career as a market timer, as our
results have improved, at least as of this writing. Whatever the short-term
fluctuations, we believe your portfolio is well positioned for sound, long-term
returns.

 As always, we appreciate your support and welcome your comments.

</TABLE>

  Special Investment Trust underperformed the relevant indices in the quarter
and for the year to date.  Over the last twelve months, the Fund outperformed
the S&P 500 Index of large companies, but was behind the Russell 2000 Index of
smaller companies and Lipper's index of mid-cap core funds.  For the longer
periods we posted very solid performance, ahead of both the S&P 500 and the
Russell 2000 for three years, but slightly below the mid-cap core funds, and
ahead of the mid-cap core funds and the Russell 2000 for five and ten years, but
behind the S&P 500 Index slightly.

  Through early March, Special Investment Trust benefited from a heavy
technology weighting, close to 35% at its height.  Including our 8.3% AOL
position, which we classify internally as media, our "official" technology
weighting reached 42%.  This technology exposure was among the factors that
drove our one- and three-year results to beat the S&P 500, as well as our
market-beating performance in calendar 1999.

  Throughout the first quarter and into the second, we sold some of our long-
time technology holdings outright or down to lower percentage positions.
However, we were caught in a time when we did not own the very highly valued
names that were up significantly prior to March 10th, and we were not completely
underweight in technology in the following period.  So, even as we were
lightening our technology, the names we owned were being severely punished in
the NASDAQ correction.

  We are long-term investors, and making a major change in our portfolio's
positioning is not something we believe should be done too quickly.  We attempt
to scale into and out of positions without great market impact.  We try to be
"liquidity providers" -- meaning we are the seller when the frenzy is to buy at
the height of a momentum-driven price movement, and we are often the buyer that
emerges when other investors are capitulating and selling at very low prices.
It was unfortunate that we did not get the portfolio repositioned in a shorter
period of time, but our goal is to have the portfolio weighted in the companies
we believe are undervalued on a multi-year basis, not to attempt to time the
market.

  During the second quarter, we sold Hadco after Sanmina agreed to purchase the
company.  We also sold several names that had not turned out as we expected,
such as Micron Electronics, Phycor and CKE Restaurants.  Lastly, we sold Cott
Corporation simply because the position was too small to make a difference to
performance, and we were not permitted to buy any more stock by regulatory
ownership restrictions.

Portfolio Managers' Comments -- Continued

  The only security we added in the quarter was Acxiom Corporation. Acxiom is
the largest provider in the highly fragmented marketing services industry. Their
core business is using consumer data and sophisticated analysis to help
companies make better decisions about targeted marketing.  The company has
recently begun to sell an internally developed software product called Abilitec
that helps to manage customer information, putting the company in the middle of
the exploding customer relationship management (CRM) industry.  We believe that
this service will be very valuable as consumers' attention becomes harder to
capture.  The company is investing heavily in this effort, and current earnings
growth rates are slightly depressed. If the company is successful with its new
Abilitec product, growth, profitability and returns should all improve
dramatically.  We purchased the stock around $30 and believe it is substantially
undervalued.

  Acxiom joins other new names added over the last six months that are outside
of the technology universe, have solid returns on capital, are out of favor
because of short-term events, and sport P/E's and other valuation measures that
are low compared to either history, the market or both.  Additions discussed in
previous quarters were The TJX Companies, Republic Services, Ceridian, Equifax,
UnumProvident and Viad Corp.

  The activity of the last few quarters has resulted in a portfolio that is
slightly different from our 1999 position.  Our technology weighting is down to
28%.  Our America Online position is down to 5.8%.  Our overall concentration in
the top ten holdings is lower, giving us a portfolio with slightly more breadth.
Our overall positioning is a bit less tilted toward the NASDAQ than it was in
1999, and our risk profile is also likely lower.

  As of this writing, we have seen some recovery in the technology names, but
the recovery has been fairly muted.  We remain highly confident in our
technology holdings, and feel comfortable with our current 28% weighting.  One
of the trends we believe may emerge during the second half of 2000 is that the
market will be far more valuation sensitive than it has been in the past.  The
most highly valued names, in technology and elsewhere, are the most vulnerable,
where in the past they were often the best performers.  Our holdings all reflect
companies that are, in our view, very undervalued.  We look forward to the
second half of the year and, as always, welcome your comments and questions.

  As you can see, the Total Return Trust outperformed its peer group and the
major market indices during the quarter. On a year-to-date basis, through the
second quarter, the Fund has outperformed the Dow and is in line with its peer
group and the S&P 500.

  These performance numbers mask a great deal of volatility in the market during
the first half of the year. A recently completed study by Sanford C. Bernstein
shows the standard deviation of individual stocks to be almost 50% above its 30-
year average, while the standard deviation of the S&P 500 Index is 20% above its
average. Measuring return volatility across the market instead of over time
finds the dispersion of stock performance today to be the greatest since the
early 1930s.

  Volatility has increased as a tug of war has erupted between company
fundamentals and valuation. Stock prices are determined by just two things:
earnings and the multiple investors are willing to pay for those earnings. The
S&P 500 is trading around 27x 2000 estimated operating earnings, a level we
believe is appropriate given the 3% rate of inflation (as measured by the
Consumer Price Index) in the U.S. economy.

  If we're right in our assessment about the overall market being fairly valued,
the market's return from present levels should be in line with the growth rate
of earnings, currently estimated to be about 12% for the year. However, there is
a great deal of variation by industry sector around the 12% level of earnings
growth, with the energy and commodities sectors expected to post 60% earnings
growth (off very depressed levels a year ago), and the technology sector
expected to grow earnings 40% over last year's very strong level. All of the
other sectors within the S&P 500 are expected to grow earnings at very subdued
rates, with finance companies expected to post negative 1% earnings growth;
health care, staples, and consumer cyclicals expected to grow earnings at less
than 3%; telephone companies at 5% and capital goods companies at 6%.

  Markets are discounting mechanisms, with prices reflecting current
fundamentals and expectations about the future (for more on this, please see the
Market Commentary section of this report). Technology investors, in aggregate,
are wrongly (in our opinion) extrapolating the very strong earnings growth rate
of the past five years into the future. To look at it another way: with non-
technology companies expected to grow earnings at rates less than the growth of
nominal GDP,/1/ how much



-------------
/1/ Nominal GDP (gross domestic product) is the sum of inflation and real GDP.
    Real GDP is expected to grow about 4% this year with inflation around 3%,
    resulting in nominal GDP of about 7%.

Portfolio Managers' Comments -- Continued

longer can technology companies grow their earnings at almost 6x nominal GDP?
Our answer: not much longer. We believe a reversal of this strong divergence in
earnings growth will become evident as 2000 progresses.

  A consequence of the greater volatility in the market has been increased
portfolio activity, as many individual stocks have gone from trading at
significant discounts of our assessment of intrinsic value to large premiums
within a relatively short period of time, and vice versa. As shown in the
biggest gainers/laggers chart found elsewhere in this report, a number of
pharmaceutical stocks were exceptional performers in the quarter, with Eli Lilly
leading the way, up 59%, as investors reassessed the potential revenue and
earnings impact of certain drugs coming off patent and the potential for a cap
on drug price increases. We used the recent strength in the pharmaceutical
stocks to cut back our position in several of the companies.

  Many retail stocks, on the other hand, have dramatically underperformed the
market over the last six to twelve months, and are pricing in negative earnings
growth over the next ten years, an event we consider to be highly unlikely. May
Department Stores is a perfect example.

  May, owner of eight department store chains, including Lord & Taylor, Hecht's
and Filene's, generates over 20% on equity, buys in their stock (fully diluted
shares outstanding have declined 8% over the last two years), and yields 3.4%.
Yet, the stock is trading at just 9x this year's estimated earnings, and has an
implied ten-year earnings growth rate of negative 5%, an event we consider to be
highly unlikely.  We used the sell-off in the stock during the second quarter to
add to our position.

  AT&T was our worst performing stock in the quarter, down almost 44%, as
investor sentiment shifted from the strength of their wireless operation to
heightened concern about the decline in the consumer long distance market,
coupled with a shortfall in their business services division. The stock in the
low $30s more than discounts the secular decline in the consumer long distance
business, in our opinion, and does not give the company credit for their growth
businesses, including their wireless operation, which is projected to grow
revenues over 25% per year for the next several years. Similar to May Department
Stores, we used the sell-off in the stock to add to our position.

 As always, we greatly appreciate your support, and welcome your comments.

   Performance Information

Total Returns for One Year, Five Years and Life of Class, as of June 30, 2000

     The returns shown on these pages are based on historical results and are
   not intended to indicate future performance.  Total return measures
   investment performance in terms of appreciation or depreciation in a Fund's
   net asset value per share plus dividends and any capital gain distributions.
   It assumes that dividends and distributions were reinvested at the time they
   were paid. The investment return and principal value of an investment in each
   of these Funds will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed,
   may be worth more or less than their original cost. Average annual returns
   tend to smooth out variations in a Fund's return, so that they differ from
   actual year-to-year results. No adjustment has been made for any income taxes
   payable by shareholders.

     Each Fund has two classes of shares: Primary Class and Navigator Class.
   Information about Primary Class, offered to retail investors, is contained in
   a separate report to its shareholders.

    The Funds' total returns as of June 30, 2000, were as follows:
