Fellow Shareholders
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The capital markets remained under pressure during the second quarter as a 
result of the anxiety associated with rising short-term interest rates and 
the declining U.S. dollar. Bond prices have dropped for three consecutive 
quarters (with a corresponding rise in long-term interest rates), while 
stocks have generally fallen for the past two quarters. 

        This less-than-ideal investment climate affected the performance of 
your Fund, which experienced a negative return over the first half despite a 
gain during the second quarter. These results, however, do compare favorably 
with the unmanaged Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and the Lipper average 
of other growth and income funds.

DIVIDEND DISTRIBUTION

Your Board of Directors declared a second quarter income dividend of $0.12 
per share on June 27, payable to shareholders of record on that date. The 
payment date was July 1, and your check or statement reflecting this dividend 
was mailed separately. Your Fund has distributed $0.23 in dividend income and 
$0.06 of long-term capital gains per share so far in 1994. These 
distributions are taxable for this year, and will be reported on the 1099-DIV 
Form sent to you in January 1995.

MARKET ENVIRONMENT

The second quarter was a continuation of the preceding quarter in many 
respects. The concerns we mentioned in the March report roiled the stock 
market again in the second quarter. Foremost among them was rising short-term 
interest rates due to a tighter monetary policy on the part of the Federal 
Reserve. The yield on three-month Treasury bills increased from 3.5% to 4.1% 
during this period. Despite the wide spread between short- and long-term 
rates, the yield on the benchmark 30-year Treasury bond rose along with 
short-term rates; it started the year at 6.4%, climbed to 7.1% at the 
beginning of the second quarter, and advanced to 7.6% by the time the quarter 
was over.

          convertibles                                   8%

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

        In addition, the falling value of the U.S. dollar contributed to 
interest rate worries. The dollar declined about 12% versus both the Japanese 
yen and German mark through mid July. Although the weaker dollar serves to 
make goods and services produced domestically more competitive in world 
markets, it also carries inflationary implications since imports become more 
expensive. Even more important from a financial perspective, domestic markets 
are less attractive to foreigners when their dollar-denominated holdings keep 
falling in value. Foreign investors are major holders of U.S. Government 
bonds -- creditors, 
<PAGE>
 
in effect, who have played an important role in financing our enormous budget
deficits over the years.

        In contrast to these currency and financial issues, the fundamental 
health of the economy is strong. This phase of the expansion appears solid 
with increasing employment, personal income, and corporate profits. We expect 
these trends to continue during the second half of this year. The outlook for 
the stock market should brighten going forward if the currency and interest 
rate markets begin to stabilize.

PORTFOLIO REVIEW

The diversification of your Fund's portfolio (see chart on the previous page) 
reflects only minor changes from the first quarter. Cash reserves were 
reduced from 8% to 5% despite inflows of money from existing and new 
shareholders, since purchases far exceeded sales of securities as shown in 
the Major Portfolio Changes in the following section.

        Most of the new purchases were of relatively high-yielding 
securities, which will increase the income component of your Fund. GREAT 
LAKES CHEMICAL and GENERAL MILLS were added for their capital growth 
potential since they both have a strong history of earnings and dividend 
growth, and should benefit from management's concerns with shareholder 
interests. In addition, the share prices of these companies have fallen from 
prior highs, offering good value and opportunity for patient long-term 
investors.

      The favorable relative value characteristics of your securities

will reward this focus on above-average yield and dividend growth over the 
long term.

T. Rowe Price Growth & Income Fund / June 30, 1994 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
T. Rowe Price Growth & Income Fund (the Fund) is registered under the 
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management 
investment company.

A) Valuation - Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities 
exchange are valued at the last quoted sales price on the day the valuations 
are made.  A security which is listed or traded on more than one exchange is 
valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the primary market 
for such security.  Listed securities that are not traded on a particular day 
are valued at a price within the limits of the latest bid and asked prices 
deemed by the Board of Directors or by persons delegated by the Board, best 
to reflect fair value.  Securities regularly traded in the over-the-counter 
market are valued at the latest bid price.

        Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market 
and are valued at a price deemed best to reflect fair value as quoted by 
dealers who make markets in these securities or by an independent pricing 
service.  Short-term debt securities are valued at their cost which, when 
combined with accrued interest, approximates fair value.

        For purposes of determining the Fund's net asset value per share, all 
assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign currencies are 
converted into U.S. dollars at the mean of the bid and offer prices of such 
currencies against U.S. dollars quoted by a major bank.

        Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are 
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair 
value as determined in good faith by, or under the supervision of, the 
officers of the Fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.

B) Affiliated Companies - Investments in companies 5% or more of whose 
outstanding voting securities are held by the Fund are defined as "Affiliated 
Companies" in Section 2(a)(3) of the Investment Company Act of 1940.

C) Currency translation - Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. 
dollars at prevailing exchange rates as follows:  assets and liabilities at 
the rate of exchange at the end of the respective period, purchases and sales 
of securities, and income and expenses at the rate of exchange prevailing on 
the dates of such transactions. The effect of changes in foreign exchange 
rate on realized and unrealized security gains or losses is reflected as a 
component of such gains or losses.

D) Other - Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment 
transactions are accounted for on the trade date.  Realized gains and losses 
are reported on an identified cost basis. Dividend income and distributions 
to shareholders are recorded by the Fund on the ex-dividend date.  Income and 
capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with federal income 
tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting 
principles.

E) Accounting Change - Effective as of the beginning of the year, the Fund 
discontinued the practice of equalization. The results of operations and net 
assets are not affected by this change.

NOTE 2 - PORTFOLIO TRANSACTIONS
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term and U.S. 
Government securities, aggregated $211,995,000 and $116,069,000, 
respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1994.

NOTE 3 - FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
No provision for federal income taxes is required since the Fund intends to
continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its
taxable income.

        At June 30, 1994, the aggregate cost of investments for federal 
income tax and financial reporting purposes was $1,078,741,000 and net 
unrealized appreciation aggregated $110,088,000, of which $162,696,000 
related to appreciated investments and $52,608,000 to depreciated 
investments.  

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The investment management agreement between the Fund and T. Rowe Price 
Associates, Inc. (the Manager) provides for an annual investment management 
fee, computed daily and paid monthly, consisting of an Individual Fund Fee 
equal to 0.15% of average daily net assets and a Group Fee.  The Group Fee is 
based on the combined assets of certain mutual funds sponsored by the Manager 
or Rowe Price-Fleming International, Inc. (the Group).  The Group Fee rate 
ranges from 0.48% for the first $1 billion of assets to 0.31% for assets in 
excess of $34 billion.  The effective annual Group Fee rate at June 30, 1994 
and for the period then ended was 0.34%.  The Fund pays a pro rata portion of 
the Group Fee based on the ratio of the Fund's net assets to those of the 
Group. 

        T. Rowe Price Services, Inc. (TRPS) and Retirement Plan Services, 
Inc. (RPS) are wholly owned subsidiaries of the Manager.  TRPS provides 
transfer and dividend disbursing agent functions and shareholder services for 
all accounts.  RPS provides subaccounting and recordkeeping services for 
certain retirement accounts invested in the Fund.  The Manager, under a 
separate agreement, calculates the daily share price and maintains the 
financial records of the Fund.  The Fund is one of several T. Rowe Price mutua
l funds (the Underlying Funds) in which the T. Rowe Price Spectrum Growth 
Fund (Spectrum) invests.  In accordance with an Agreement between Spectrum, 
the Underlying Funds, the Manager and TRPS, expenses from the operation of 
Spectrum are borne by the Underlying Funds based on each Underlying Fund's 
proportionate share of assets owned by Spectrum.  For the six months ended 
June 30, 1994, the Fund incurred fees totalling approximately $1,553,000 for 
these services provided by related parties.  At June 30, 1994, these 
investment management and service fees payable were  $816,000.

                                                                              11
