Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with the mid-year report for Managed
Intermediate Government Fund. As of June 30, the Fund's 30-day net annualized
yield was a competitive 4.96%, and its total return for the six months, assuming
the reinvestment of dividends, was 1.36%. As the average return for the 121
intermediate U.S. government funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services was
- -1.49% for the same period, your Fund fared particularly well. The Fund's mix of
conservative investments helped it pursue its dual objectives of providing
investors with a reasonably high level of current income and a relatively stable
share price compared with long-term bonds.
The first six months of 1996 encompassed an uncertain environment for bond
investors, as long-term interest rates rose sharply during first three months of
the period before stabilizing somewhat in the spring. The Federal Reserve's
recent decision to hold short-term interest rates at current levels appears to
reflect a consensus that slower economic growth and low inflation should hold
sway in the near future.
While the Fund's share price and income will vary in response to changes in
interest rates and other economic factors, we believe that the current
environment should allow the Fund to continue to provide solid total returns,
blending a reasonable level of current income and price stability. If you have
any questions about your Fund, please call toll free (800) 854-8525 from any
continental state. Thank you for choosing Managed Intermediate Government Fund
to help meet your investment needs.
/s/David S. Lee

Portfolio Management Discussion
Recognizing that conservative bond investors count on dependable income and
a fair degree of price stability, we focused on three types of investments
during the period: U.S. Government agency pass-throughs, U.S. Treasury
obligations, and repurchase agreements. This combination of investments,
compatible with the conservative nature of the Fund, helped to provide a
competitive return during the period of generally rising interest rates, as is
evident in its outperformance versus its peers.
At the close of the period, close to 30% of the portfolio was invested in
U.S. Government agency pass-throughs. We utilize these mortgage-backed
securities to add yield to the portfolio, targeting opportunities in older pools
in the moderate premium 15-year sector. These "seasoned" pools offer greater
prepayment protection, as the underlying borrowers have not refinanced despite
several opportunities to do so in prior years. Moreover, prepayment risk has
subsided in the wake of the recent interest rate increases, helping to keep
supply far below 1993's record peaks.
Shorter-maturity U.S. Treasury obligations and repurchase agreements
afforded the Fund the price stability its shareholders have come to expect. U.S.
Treasury obligations are backed by the U.S. government, and provide the the
highest degree of credit safety available. At the period's close, these
securities made up 59% of the Fund's portfolio. Repurchase agreements made up
the remaining 11% of the portfolio at the close of the period. In view of the
current bond market uncertainty, these stable, very short term securities also
give the Fund the ability to deploy assets quickly as the direction of the bond
market becomes more clear.
We believe Managed Intermediate Government Fund is well-positioned to take
advantage of the current investment environment, and will continue to scrutinize
the economic data to help shape investment strategy for the remainder of the
year. Thank you for your continued interest in Managed Intermediate Government
Fund.

the Manager had not maintained the Fund's expenses, the average annual
total return for the one year, five year and life of Fund periods would have
been lower.

MANAGED INTERMEDIATE GOVERNMENT FUND
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. ORGANIZATION
Managed Intermediate Government Fund (the "Fund") is a portfolio of
Scudder Fund, Inc. (the "Company") which is an open-end diversified management
investment company.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Significant accounting policies followed by the Fund are:
(a) Security Valuation--The value of securities is determined as of the
close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Securities are valued
utilizing primarily the latest bid prices or, if bid prices are not available,
on the basis of valuations based on a matrix system, both as furnished by a
reputable independent pricing service. Debt securities maturing in 60 days or
less are valued at amortized cost. All other securities and other assets for
which current market quotes are not readily available are valued at fair value
as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors and in
accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors.
(b) Federal Income Taxes--The Fund's policy is to qualify as a regulated
investment company under subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and to
distribute all taxable income, including any realized net capital gains, to
shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is required. As of
December 31, 1995, the Fund had a net tax basis capital loss carryforward of
approximately $1,644,795, which may be applied against any realized net taxable
capital gains of each succeeding year until fully utilized or until December 31,
2002, whichever comes first.
(c) Allocation of Expenses--Expenses not directly chargeable to the Fund
are allocated primarily on the basis of relative net assets of the Company.
(d) Dividends--Dividends from net investment income are declared each
business day to shareholders of record on the previous business day for payment
on the first business day of the following month. During any particular year,
net realized gains from investment transactions in excess of available capital
loss carryforwards would be taxable to the Fund if not distributed. Therefore,
the Fund intends to distribute these amounts to shareholders. An additional
distribution may be made to the extent necessary to avoid the payment of a four
percent federal excise tax. The Fund uses the specific identification method for
determining realized gains or losses on investments for both financial and
federal income tax reporting purposes.
(e) Organization Costs--Costs incurred by the Fund in connection with
its organization and initial registration of shares have been deferred and are
being amortized on a straight-line basis over a five-year period.
(f) Other--Investment transactions are recorded on trade dates. Interest
income is recorded on the accrual basis and is adjusted for gains and losses on
paydowns on mortgage-backed securities. Distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend dates.
3. REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
It is the Company's policy to obtain possession, through its custodian,
of the securities underlying each repurchase agreement to which it is a party,
either through physical delivery or book entry transfer in the Federal Reserve
System or Participants Trust Company. Payment by the Company in respect of a
repurchase agreement is authorized only when proper delivery of the underlying
securities is made to the Company's custodian. The Company's investment manager
values such underlying securities each business day using quotations obtained
from a reputable, independent source. If the Company's investment manager
determines that the value of such underlying securities (including accrued
interest thereon) does not at least equal the value of each repurchase agreement
(including accrued interest thereon) to which such securities are subject, it
will ask for additional securities to be delivered to the Company's custodian.
In connection with each repurchase agreement transaction, if the seller defaults
and the value of the collateral declines or if the seller enters an insolvency
proceeding, realization of the collateral by the Company may be delayed or
limited.

<PAGE>
4. PURCHASES AND SALES OF SECURITIES
During the six months ended June 30, 1996, purchases and sales of
securities, which were U.S. Government and U.S. Government agency securities,
(excluding short-term investments) aggregated $2,525,781 and $7,732,457,
respectively.
5. MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Company retains Scudder, Stevens & Clark, Inc. ("Scudder") as
investment manager for the Fund, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement
between Scudder and the Company on behalf of the Fund, for a management fee
payable each month, based upon the average daily value of the Fund's net assets,
at an annual rate of 0.65%. Scudder has agreed not to impose all or a portion of
its management fee until October 31, 1996, and during such period to maintain
the annualized expenses of the Fund at not more than 0.80% of average daily net
assets. For the six months ended June 30, 1996, Scudder did not impose any of
its fee amounting to $37,530. During the six months ended June 30, 1996, the
reimbursement was $675.
Under certain state regulations, if the total expenses of the Fund,
exclusive of taxes, interest, and extraordinary expenses exceed certain
limitations, the Company's investment adviser is required to reimburse the Fund
for such excess up to the amount of the management fee.
Scudder Service Corporation ("SSC"), a subsidiary of Scudder is the
Company's shareholder service, transfer and dividend disbursing agent. For the
six months ended June 30, 1996, the amount charged to the Fund by SSC aggregated
$11,611, of which $1,833 is unpaid.
Scudder Fund Accounting Corporation ("SFAC"), a subsidiary of Scudder,
is responsible for determining the daily net asset value per share and
maintaining the portfolio and general accounting records for the Fund. For the
six months ended June 30, 1996, the amount charged to the Fund by SFAC
aggregated $2,925, of which $1,142 is unpaid. For the six months ended June 30,
1996, SFAC did not impose fees amounting to $15,825.
The Company has a compensation arrangement under which payment of
Directors' fees may be deferred. Interest is accrued (based on the rate of
return earned on the 90 day Treasury Bill as determined at the beginning of each
calendar quarter) on the deferred balances and is included in "Directors' fees
and expenses." The accumulated balance of deferred directors' fees and interest
thereon relating to the Fund aggregated $7,729, which is included in accrued
expenses of the Fund.
6. SHAREHOLDER SERVICES
The Fund has special arrangements with certain banks, institutions and
other persons under which they receive compensation from the Fund and Scudder
for performing shareholder servicing functions for their customers who own
shares in the Fund from time to time. For the six months ended June 30, 1996,
payments by the Fund pursuant to these arrangements aggregated $555, of which
$100 is unpaid.
7. SHAREHOLDER SERVICE, ADMINISTRATION AND DISTRIBUTION PLAN
The Company has a Shareholder Service, Administration and Distribution
Plan adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940
under which participating organizations which enter into agreements with the
Company and Scudder may receive a fee of up to 0.25% on an annual basis from
each of the Company and Scudder. Such fee is calculated on the average daily net
assets of the Company for which such participating organizations are
responsible. No payments have been made by the Company for shareholder service,
administration and distribution assistance under this plan other than those
indicated in Note 6 above.
8. CAPITAL STOCK
At June 30, 1996, one holder of record of the Fund held approximately
75% of the outstanding shares.
