CHAIRMAN'S LETTER
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dear Investor:
We are pleased to present the June 30, 1997 Semiannual Report of the
Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. This Report begins with an overview of the U.S.
and international economies during the first six months of 1997. Details for
each Portfolio, including a listing of assets, investments, and Portfolio
characteristics, follow:
ECONOMIC REVIEW
- ------------------
The U.S. economy slowed in the second quarter, resulting in an average growth
rate of 3.5% for the first half of 1997. This pace seems likely to continue in
the second half, which may keep inflation concerns alive relating to "full
employment."
Consumer fundamentals remained healthy, with spending expected to rebound to a
level more in line with the growth in discretionary income. Capital spending,
especially for computers and related equipment, continues to be strong.
Inflation in the price of goods has been held in check by weakening demand
overseas and the dollar's appreciation over the past two years.
U.S. STOCK MARKET
- ------------------
The U.S. stock market staged a strong recovery in the second quarter, leaving
the major indices (e.g., the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price
Index(R)) up nearly 20% for the first half of 1997. With valuations now
perhaps somewhat on the high side, further gains over the balance of the year
are likely to be modest. Operating earnings of companies in the S&P 500 Index
are expected to rise modestly in 1997, reflecting continuing improvement in
productivity.
U.S. BOND MARKET
- ------------------
The rates of long-term bonds are expected to remain within a tight trading
range as long as there is a threat of the Federal Reserve raising short-term
rates. Business cycle pressures have eased somewhat, but are likely to tighten
in the second half of 1997. Inflation has remained remarkably stable.
Technical factors in the bond market continued to be favorable, despite the
sizable issuance of corporate bonds. U.S. bonds remain attractive in a global
context. Despite recent price volatility, a stable-to-strong dollar remains in
the interest of international monetary policy makers.
INTERNATIONAL
MARKETS
- ------------------
International markets were surprisingly buoyant in local currency terms during
the period. However, U.S. dollar strength generally reduced total U.S.
investment returns. Continental Europe continued to show economic
acceleration. However, any event or trend seen as stalling this process could
inhibit global investors.
Globally, the best-performing industries included savings and loan,
pharmaceuticals, office equipment, soft drinks, and software. The worst
performers were casinos, agriculture, and shipbuilding.
Sincerely,
/s/ David A. Levene

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATE STREET RESEARCH GROWTH PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio performed well in its fund category for the six-month period.
Early in June, the Portfolio passed $2 billion in total net assets.
With its growth orientation, the Portfolio is invested in stocks of a number
of companies which dominate their industries or are global market leaders.
Fundamentals continued to improve in many of these companies, despite their
historically high stock prices. Leading contributors to performance were
science and technology, pharmaceuticals, and hospital supplies.
Underperforming stocks were financial and energy companies. The manager has
defensively increased the Portfolio's cash position in view of stock market
valuations and volatility.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve long-term growth of capital and income and moderate current income.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests primarily in common stocks that are believed to be of good quality or
to have good growth potential or which are considered to be undervalued based
on historical investment standards.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
STATE STREET RESEARCH INCOME PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio outperformed its benchmark, the Lehman Brothers(R)
Government/Corporate Index, for the six-month period.
This above-average performance can be attributed, in part, to contributions
from high-yield and foreign bond holdings. The manager also continued to
actively manage the Portfolio's duration, or interest-rate sensitivity, to
take advantage of price fluctuations caused by rate changes in the current
bond trading range.
At the end of the period, the manager had reduced mortgage-backed holdings
after some solid appreciation. Investment-grade corporate bonds were added for
their relatively attractive values. The Portfolio continued to hold selective,
small investments in high-yield and international bonds.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve the highest possible total return, by combining current income with
capital gains, consistent with prudent investment risk and preservation of
capital.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests primarily in fixed-income, high-quality debt securities.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
METLIFE(/1/) MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
Near the end of March, the Federal Reserve Bank ended its 14-month period of
stable rates by announcing its new targeted rate for Federal Funds--up a
quarter of a point. Money market rates followed Fed Funds, then remained in a
narrow trading range for the second quarter.
The Portfolio entered the first quarter of 1997 with a neutral outlook. Toward
the middle of May, the manager recognized a period of lower yield volatility
and extended the Portfolio's average maturity beyond IBC's (IBC Financial
Data, Inc.) reported average maturity of 52 days to about 70 days. By
targeting an average maturity of 70 days for the Portfolio, the manager
intends to capture additional yield at a time when yield volatility seems
range bound.
Throughout the first half of the year, the Portfolio maintained its investment
policy of buying only tier-one, non-government credits, as well as Treasury
Bills and Government Agency issues. There were no rating agency changes to any
credits held by the Portfolio this quarter. In light of the recent default of
Mercury Finance on its commercial paper, it's important to note that the
Portfolio manager relies on ratings provided by Moody's and Standard & Poor's.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve the highest possible current income consistent with preservation of
capital and maintenance of liquidity.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests primarily in short-term money market instruments. INVESTMENT IN THIS
PORTFOLIO IS NEITHER INSURED NOR GUARANTEED BY THE UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT.

STATE STREET RESEARCH DIVERSIFIED PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio performed very well within its fund category over the six-month
period. The Portfolio is invested in the stocks of companies which dominate
their industries or are global market leaders. Fundamentals continued to
improve in many of these growth companies, despite the historically high
prices of their stocks. Leading industry performers were science and
technology, pharmaceuticals, and hospital supplies. Underperforming stocks
were financial and energy companies.
The bond segment of the Portfolio improved due, in part, to high-yield and
foreign bonds and to changes made in the interest-rate sensitivity of
holdings. The bond manager reduced mortgage-backed holdings after solid
growth. Modest additions of attractive investment-grade corporate bonds were
made.
The asset allocation for the Portfolio as of the end of the period was 54.7%
equities, 38.0% fixed income and 7.3% short term obligations and other assets,
close to the manager's guideline.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve a high total return while attempting to limit investment risk and
preserve capital.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests in equity securities, fixed-income debt securities, or short-term
money market instruments, or any combination thereof.

STATE STREET RESEARCH AGGRESSIVE GROWTH PORTFOLIO
Finishing with significantly improved results in the second quarter, the
Portfolio returned to positive performance for the six-month period. The stock
market showed signs of reversing the trend of more declining issues over
advances that had persisted for the past year. A number of individual
Portfolio holdings in various sectors, which were depressed, began to revive:
science and technology, business services, and the hotel and restaurant
industries. The manager increased positions among business products and
financial companies, while reducing energy holdings.
The Portfolio remains focused on company management, strong earnings growth,
and attractive valuations. These are important factors in trying to balance
the risks of investing in high growth stocks.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve maximum capital appreciation.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests primarily in common stocks (and equity and debt securities convertible
into or carrying the right to acquire common stocks) of emerging growth
companies, undervalued securities or special situations.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

METLIFE STOCK INDEX PORTFOLIO
In the first half of 1997, stocks in the S&P 500 Index continued their strong
price appreciation. Gains in stock prices were underpinned by strong earnings
growth. Earnings gains for companies in the S&P 500 Index were better than
expected and reflected moderate U.S. economic growth, flat labor costs, and
market share gains by U.S. companies in global markets. Rising prices for the
S&P 500 stocks also reflected the remarkable absence of inflation during this
period of economic growth. Finally, stock prices were helped by expectations
of a capital gains tax cut and by a continuing flood of money into retirement
savings plans.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To equal the performance of the S&P 500 Index, adjusted to assume reinvestment
of dividends.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests in the common stock of companies which are included in the S&P 500
Index.

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GFM(/1/) INTERNATIONAL STOCK PORTFOLIO
The Portfolio achieved reasonable first half results, outperforming its
benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International(R) EAFE(R) Index. Asset
allocation was tactical and productive. For example, the manager underweighted
Japan early in the year, but was able to capture most of the currency and
stock rally there in the second quarter, by using resources from the sale of
investments in Continental Europe. Growing concerns about the European
Monetary Union raised the risk profile of the already fully valued markets
there.
The manager maintained a pro-growth bias. Individual stock selection was
positive, with lower-than-average investments in the United Kingdom and
smaller Asian markets.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve long-term growth of capital.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests primarily in common stock and equity-related securities of non-United
States companies.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOOMIS SAYLES HIGH YIELD BOND PORTFOLIO
Demand for higher yielding securities was strong. High-yield emerging markets
and convertible bonds continued to outperform the broader market. The
Portfolio's exposure to all of these sectors had a positive impact on
performance. Issue selection remains key in the Portfolio's structure.
Many of the recent additions to the Portfolio were in the Yankee sector (i.e.,
foreign issued but denominated in U.S. dollars). Latin America continues to
benefit from sound economic policies and markets that today are more
accessible to foreign investors, while Asian economies seem likely to overcome
their current growing pains. The majority of the Portfolio's holdings are now
evenly distributed between B and BB issues. The upside potential comes from
the underlying fundamentals for the credits, which on the whole are improving.
The outlook for low inflation and a growing economy would seem to bode well
for the higher yielding issues in the Portfolio.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve high total investment return through a combination of current
income and capital appreciation.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
JANUS MID CAP PORTFOLIO
Domestic equities posted dramatic gains during the second quarter. However,
most major indices continued to be dominated by their larger equity
components. Despite this environment, the Portfolio registered solid gains,
advancing beyond the S&P MidCap 400 Index(R). A major market dichotomy has
persisted for some time, with large stocks dominating their smaller
counterparts. Numerous factors have contributed to this relative dominance,
including a long stretch of above-average corporate earnings, an affinity
among investors for liquidity, and large inflows of money chasing a limited
number of stocks.
During the period, the manager remained true to his investment discipline. The
Portfolio held a number of stocks that gained over 35%, including Fastenal,
Papa John's, Premier Parks, Omnicare, and the Apollo Group. The fundamentals
of these companies did not change during the period. However, the turnaround
in market psychology rewarded companies with solid fundamentals and rapid
earnings growth.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To provide long-term growth of capital.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests primarily in securities issued by medium-sized companies.

T. ROWE PRICE SMALL CAP GROWTH PORTFOLIO
After a sluggish start, small cap stocks rebounded sharply. The broad stock
market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, performed almost as well. While
there was no single catalyst for the advance, overall economic conditions
remained outstanding, with consistently low inflation, solid and seemingly
sustainable economic growth, and lower interest rates.
Strong asset growth pushed the Portfolio past $25 million in assets, which is
large enough to efficiently implement its well-diversified strategy. The P/E
ratio of the Portfolio is currently about 1.2 times the P/E ratio of the S&P
500 Index, which is reasonable for a portfolio of companies whose objective is
growth in excess of the overall market. At quarter's end, the Portfolio held
5.6% in cash reserves.
All sectors of the Portfolio consistently advanced during the second quarter.
Business services, technology, and media were the best sectors, with returns
in excess of 20%. Laggards included the consumer related stocks, retailers,
and resources, although even the worst sector was up 8%.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve long-term capital growth.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests in small capitalization companies.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SCUDDER GLOBAL EQUITY PORTFOLIO
The second quarter was marked by the strong performance of several key themes
and a shift toward a more conservative investment position.
Stocks representing the managers' "Darkside Restructuring" theme (which is
concerned with the move from a high wage/inflexible cost environment to one of
cost cutting, globalization of production, and access to global capital
markets) were positive contributors to performance. Also contributing to
performance were the emerging markets, particularly holdings in Brazil.
Although the managers have taken a more conservative stance in the Portfolio,
they are still seeking out value in the global arena and believe that their
processes will assist them in locating undervalued securities well before the
market does.
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE
To achieve long-term growth of capital through a diversified portfolio of
marketable securities, primarily equity securities, including common stocks,
preferred stocks, and debt securities convertible into common stocks.
UNDERLYING INVESTMENTS
Invests on a worldwide basis in equity securities of companies which are
incorporated in the U.S. or in foreign countries. May also invest in the debt
securities of U.S. and foreign issuers. Income is an incidental consideration.

Notes to Financial Statements June 30, 1997
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Significant The Metropolitan Series Fund, Inc. ("Fund") is registered
Accounting under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified
Policies open end investment company. The following is a summary of
significant accounting policies consistently followed by the
Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The
policies are in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.
------------------------------------------------------------
A. Investment Security Valuation: Portfolio securities that
are traded on stock exchanges are valued at the last price
as of the close of business on the day the securities are
being valued, or, lacking any sales, at the mean between
closing bid and asked prices. Securities traded in the
over-the-counter market are valued at the mean between the
bid and asked prices or yield equivalent as obtained from
two or more dealers that make markets in the securities.
Portfolio securities that are traded in both the
over-the-counter market and on a stock exchange are valued
according to the broadest and most representative market,
and it is expected that for debt securities this ordinarily
will be the over-the-counter market. The estimated fair
value of equity and debt investments are based on the quoted
market price as of June 30, 1997. Securities for which
market quotations are not readily available are valued at
fair value as determined in good faith by or under the
direction of the Board of Directors of the Fund, including
valuations furnished by a pricing service retained for this
purpose. The market values of foreign securities are
recorded after translation to U.S. dollars, based on the
exchange rate at the end of the period.
Short-term debt securities in all Portfolios, except the
MetLife Money Market Portfolio, with sixty days or less
remaining to maturity are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates fair value. Short-term investments in these
Portfolios maturing more than sixty days from the valuation
date are valued at fair value based on the most recent bid
price or yield equivalent as obtained from dealers that make
markets in such securities. Portfolio securities in the
MetLife Money Market Portfolio are valued at amortized cost,
which approximates fair value.
------------------------------------------------------------
B. Investment Security Transactions: Security transactions
are recorded on the trade date. Securities denominated in
foreign currencies are translated at exchange rates
prevailing on the respective dates traded. Dividend income
is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, for certain foreign
securities, when notified; interest income is accrued as
earned. Transactions denominated in foreign currencies are
recorded at the rate prevailing when earned or incurred.
Realized gains and losses are determined on the identified
cost basis. Asset and liability accounts that are
denominated in foreign currencies are adjusted to reflect
current exchange rates prevailing on the respective dates
traded. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date
or, for certain foreign securities, when notified; interest
income is accrued as earned.
------------------------------------------------------------
C. Federal Income Taxes: It is the Fund's policy to comply
with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code and
regulations thereunder applicable to regulated investment
companies and to distribute all of its taxable income to
shareholders. Therefore, no Federal income tax provision is
required. At December 31, 1996, the State Street Research
Income and GFM International Stock Portfolios had available
for federal income tax purposes unused capital loss
carryovers of approximately $27,000 and $16,382,000,
respectively, which will expire on December 31, 2002 and on
December 31, 2004, respectively.
------------------------------------------------------------
D. Return of Capital Distributions: The fund distributes all
of its taxable income, both net realized gains and net
investment income, to shareholders. Effective January 1,
1994 the Fund adopted Statement of Position 93-2:
Determination, Disclosure, and Financial Statement
Presentation of Income, Capital Gain, and Return of Capital
Distributions by Investment Companies. As a result, the Fund
changed the classification of distributions to shareholders
to better disclose the differences between financial
statement amounts and distributions determined in accordance
with income tax regulations.
The State Street Research Aggressive Growth Portfolio
incurred a net investment loss of $1,338,007 during 1996,
which has been reclassified to paid-in-capital at December
31, 1996. Currency losses in the GFM International Stock
Portfolio incurred during the year of $5,952,403 were
reclassified between net investment income, accumulated net
realized loss, and paid-in-capital at December 31, 1996.
------------------------------------------------------------
E. Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: A forward
foreign currency exchange contract is an agreement between
two parties to buy or sell a specific currency for a set
price on a future date. The Fund may enter into forward
foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge security
transactions or holdings denominated in a foreign currency.
Should foreign currency exchange rates move unexpectedly,
the Fund may not achieve the anticipated benefits of the
forward foreign currency exchange contracts and may realize
a loss. The use of forward foreign currency exchange
contracts involves the risk of imperfect correlation in
movements in the price of the underlying hedged assets and
foreign currency exchange rates. During the period that a
contract is open, changes in the value of the contract are
recognized as an unrealized gain or loss by "marking to
market" on a daily basis. A realized gain or loss will be
recognized when a contract is completed or canceled.
------------------------------------------------------------
F. Estimates and Assumptions: The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principals requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and
the reported amounts of income and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those
estimates.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Restricted The State Street Research Income Portfolio holds thirteen
and Illiquid securities, the State Street Research Diversified Portfolio
Securities holds fifteen securities, the GFM International Stock
Portfolio holds four securities, the Loomis Sayles High
Yield Bond Portfolio holds seven securities, and the Scudder
Global Equity Portfolio holds one security that was
purchased in private placement transactions. These
securities may be resold in transactions exempt from
registration or to the public if the securities are
registered. The sale of these securities may involve lengthy
negotiations and additional expense. These constraints may
affect the security's marketability, and therefore hinder
prompt disposal at an acceptable price. The Fund intends to
invest no more than 15% of net assets in illiquid and
restricted securities, except for the MetLife Money Market
Portfolio and the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio where the
restriction is 10% of net assets. Restricted securities
(including Rule 144A issues) held at June 30, 1997 are
footnoted at the end of each applicable Portfolio's schedule
of investments.

Portfolio. Janus Capital Corporation is compensated to

Cap Portfolio. T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. is compensated
to provide sub-investment management services for the T.
Rowe Price Small Cap Growth Portfolio. Scudder, Stevens &
Clark, Inc. is compensated to provide sub-investment

------------------------------------------------------------
B. Investment Management Fee Waiver: Metropolitan Life has
agreed to waive a portion of its investment management fee
for the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio during the first
year of the Portfolio's operations. For the first six months
the waiver will equal .35% of the average daily value of the
aggregate net assets of the Portfolio up to $50 million,
.175% of such assets on the next $50 million, .15% of such
assets on the next $400 million and .1375% of such assets on
amounts in excess of $500 million. During the second six
months of the Portfolio's operations such waiver of the
investment management fee will be equal to .175% of assets
up to $50 million, .0875% of assets on the next $50 million,
.075% of assets on the next $400 million and .06875% of such
assets in excess of $500 million.
------------------------------------------------------------
C. Subsidization of New Portfolios: Metropolitan Life has
agreed to subsidize all expenses, excluding those listed
below, in excess of .20% of the net assets of Loomis Sayles
High Yield Bond Portfolio, Janus Mid Cap Portfolio, T. Rowe
Price Small Cap Growth Portfolio, and Scudder Global Equity
Portfolio. Subsidization will continue until either each
Portfolio's total net assets are at least $100 million, or
March 2, 1999, whichever is earlier. Expenses excluded from
subsidization are: investment management fees payable to
Metropolitan Life, brokerage commissions on portfolio
transactions (including any other direct costs related to
the acquisition, disposition, lending or borrowing of
portfolio investments), taxes payable by the Fund, interest
and other costs related to borrowings by the Fund, and any
extraordinary or non-recurring expenses (such as legal
claims and liabilities and litigation costs and any
indemnification related thereto).
Prior to May 16, 1993, Metropolitan Life was obligated to
pay all expenses of each Portfolio of the Fund that was in
operation at that time. Since that date, the Fund has been
obligated to pay all of its own expenses. However,
Metropolitan Life reserves the right, at its sole
discretion, to pay all or a portion of the expenses of the
Fund or any of its Portfolios, and to terminate such
voluntary payment at any time upon notice to the Board of
Directors and affected shareholders of the Fund.
------------------------------------------------------------
D. Impact of Expense Subsidy on Net Investment Income Per
Share: Net Investment Income per share is enhanced by
Metropolitan Life's subsidy of certain expenses for those
Portfolios that commenced operations in 1997. Net Investment
Income per share would have decreased by $.02 , $.01, $.02,
and $.02, for Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond Portfolio, Janus
Mid Cap Portfolio, T. Rowe Price Small Cap Growth Portfolio,
and Scudder Global Equity Portfolio, respectively.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Dividend The Fund distributes, at least annually, substantially all
Distributions net investment income, if any, of each Portfolio, which will
then be reinvested in additional full and fractional shares
of the Portfolio. All net realized long-term or short-term
capital gains of the Fund, if any, are declared and
distributed at least annually to the shareholders of the
Portfolio or Portfolios to which such gains are
attributable.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. New Portfolios On March 3, 1997, the Fund commenced operations of four
additional Portfolios: Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond
Portfolio, Janus Mid Cap Portfolio, T. Rowe Price Small Cap
Growth Portfolio, and Scudder Global Equity Portfolio.
Metropolitan Life supplied initial capital of $22,000,000 to
facilitate the operation of these Portfolios. Metropolitan
Life Insurance, therefore, purchased 200,000 shares of the
Loomis Sayles High Yield Bond Portfolio, 500,000 shares of
the Janus Mid Cap Portfolio, 500,000 shares of the T. Rowe
Price Small Cap Growth Portfolio, and 1,000,000 shares of
the Scudder Global Equity Portfolio, with each Portfolio
valued at $10 per share. Subsequently, these Portfolios were
made available for certain contracts. At June 30, 1997 the
value of Metropolitan Life's investment in these Portfolios
totaled $24,084,000.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. Portfolio The Growth Portfolio, Income Portfolio, Money Market
Name Changes Portfolio, Diversified Portfolio, Aggressive Growth
Portfolio, Stock Index Portfolio, and International Stock
Portfolio changed names on March 3, 1997. Subsequently,
these Portfolios are renamed as follows: State Street
Research Growth Portfolio, State Street Research Income
Portfolio, MetLife Money Market Portfolio, State Street
Research Diversified Portfolio, State Street Research
Aggressive Growth Portfolio, MetLife Stock Index Portfolio,
and GFM International Stock Portfolio.
