DEAR INVESTOR

Stocks rose sharply in the second quarter, paced by technology issues, and all
of the major market indices ended the period at record levels. Your fund's
23.8% gain in the first half exceeded that of the unmanaged Standard & Poor's
500 Stock Index and an average of other growth stock funds.

MARKET ENVIRONMENT

The stock market's superb performance in the first half may seem surprising.
After all, when the economy was growing briskly in 1994 and corporate earnings
gains were the best in several years, stocks meandered and finished virtually
unchanged. However, the market has taken off this year despite abundant
evidence of a pullback in growth and increasing signs of a slowdown in
corporate earnings, particularly in the consumer sector. We believe the market
has been driven by lower interest rates and a changing perception of both the
role and direction of American government.

         Slowing growth in the U.S. and abroad has assuaged fears of a pickup
in inflation. Long-term interest rates, whose surge in 1994 precipitated the
worst bond returns in many years, decisively reversed course and have fallen
about 2 percentage points from their peaks last year. Investors were further
comforted by hints from the Federal Reserve early in the year that the
tightening phase of monetary policy was over; indeed, in July, the Fed cut
rates for the first time in three years. This action improved prospects for a
"soft landing," and the markets seemed to be expecting the best of all possible
worlds -- moderate, noninflationary growth.

         Perhaps the most important, albeit subtle, catalyst for the market's
performance has come from Washington, where a Republican Congress appears to
have transformed the nation's political agenda. In fact, the concept of a
diminished role for government and the movement toward fiscal conservatism have
gained advocates in both parties. Even the Democratic president has proposed
slowing the growth of government services to attain a balanced budget in 10
years.

         Technology stocks led the market's advance, while stocks of companies
in cyclical industries such as autos and steel lagged. Investor focus continued
to shift from the cyclicals that led the market through mid-1994 toward
companies whose earnings are expected to grow at rates of 15% to 25%, even in a
slowing economy. These are the types of companies your fund favors.

PORTFOLIO REVIEW

Your fund seeks high-growth companies operating in noncyclical, service
businesses. The service sector of the U.S. economy has grown rapidly since
World War II and is now much larger than the manufacturing sector. Most
manufacturing industries have pronounced cyclical characteristics; in contrast,
service sector gross domestic product has not declined in any year since 1947.
Media reports often misrepresent the service sector as the haven of
burger-flipping teenagers, when, in fact, it has created far more high-paying
jobs than the manufacturing sector. Of greater importance to fund shareholders,
the service sector has spawned many of the fastest-growing, most exciting
companies in America today.

         After significantly paring our consumer-related stocks and augmenting
our business services holdings in 1994, we made few changes in the fund's
overall sector diversification so far in 1995, as shown below:

         Significant additions in the first half included the purchase of two
cable companies, COMCAST and COX COMMUNICATIONS. We felt that negative investor
sentiment towards the stocks was overdone, and that the growth prospects of
these two operators, in particular, were strong. We also bought significant
positions in OLSTEN, a temporary staffing company which is growing quickly in
the home health care field, and ADT, a company with strong growth prospects in
two attractive businesses, security systems and wholesale used auto auctions.
We also eliminated several significant holdings including PITTSTON SERVICES,
which we believe is vulnerable to a cyclical downturn, FOUNDATION HEALTH, and
WAL-MART STORES, whose growth, we believe, is slowing.

         The fund's top contributor in the first half was MONEY STORE, a
consumer finance company that reported surprisingly robust earnings. Other top
contributors included CUC INTERNATIONAL, the nation's largest purveyor of
direct mail, membership-based discount shopping services, which continued to
report outstanding results, and FIRST FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT, a leader in credit
card transaction processing, which agreed to be acquired.





                                       1

         Several of our holdings were unable to withstand the slowdown in the
consumer sector. ANNTAYLOR STORES, a women's apparel retailer, and SBARRO, the
Italian restaurant chain, both reported disappointing earnings results and were
among the worst contributors for the first half. Our holdings in health
maintenance organizations (HMOs) SIERRA HEALTH SERVICES, PACIFICARE HEALTH
SYSTEMS, UNITED HEALTHCARE, and Foundation Health also penalized the fund in
the quarter as investors reacted to a perceived deterioration in the industry's
pricing environment. We have reduced our exposure to the sector, but expect to
continue to hold the premier operators, and may selectively add to our
positions if we believe the selling is overdone.

         The characteristics of the portfolio remain vibrant, as shown below.
We continue to search for highly profitable, rapidly growing companies with
excellent management and strong competitive positions in businesses that we
like. We favor companies that generate substantial positive cash flows, have
strong financial positions, and can finance their own growth. We look for
companies we can own for a number of years.

OUTLOOK

We expect modest economic growth in the second half of the year. Soft landings
are unusual, but we are optimistic the economy will achieve a respectable,
sustainable growth rate. We do worry, however, that this comfortable scenario
could be shattered by an unanticipated event. Nevertheless, most of the
companies in your fund should continue to grow even in difficult economic
times.

         Interest rates have already fallen dramatically from their peaks, and
we do not expect them to fall much further. In the absence of strong evidence
of a faltering economy, we think the Federal Reserve will be cautious about
lowering rates again soon and may become increasingly wary of fueling further
speculation in the financial markets.

         While speculation has been apparent in some market sectors,
particularly technology (to which your fund has only modest exposure), we
continue to believe that most growth stocks remain reasonably priced relative
to the market. Your fund should be well positioned to achieve attractive
returns over the next several years.

                                    Respectfully submitted,

FOREIGN STOCK AUTHORIZATION INCREASED

The Board of Trustees of the New America Growth Portfolio has increased the
amount of fund assets that can be invested in foreign securities from 10% to
15%. While the fund typically has modest foreign exposure (currently 10.1% of
total assets), the greater flexibility could be advantageous in the future
because of the proliferation of suitable overseas investment opportunities, the
increase in foreign companies with operations in the U.S., and the opening up
of financial markets in areas of the world previously closed to investment.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
T. Rowe Price New America Growth Portfolio / June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

T. Rowe Price Equity Series, Inc., (the Corporation) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. The New America Growth Portfolio (the fund), a
diversified, open-end management investment company, is one of the portfolios
established by the Corporation.  The shares of the fund are currently being
offered only to separate accounts of certain insurance companies as an
investment medium for both variable annuity contracts and variable life
insurance policies.

A) Valuation - Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities
exchange are valued at the last quoted sales price at the time 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 and
securities that are regularly traded in the over-the-counter market are valued
at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices.  Other equity securities 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.

         Short-term debt securities are valued at their cost which, when
combined with accrued interest, approximates fair value.

         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) 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 and may differ from those determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.  The fund follows the practice of equalization
under which undistributed net investment income per share is unaffected by fund
shares sold or redeemed.

NOTE 2 - INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $1,728,733 and $950,907, respectively, for the six months ended June
30, 1995.

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.  The fund has unused realized capital loss carryforwards for
federal income tax purposes of $16,583 which expire in 2002.

         At June 30, 1995, the aggregate cost of investments for federal income
tax and financial reporting purposes was $3,201,968 and net unrealized gain
aggregated $605,272, of which $624,997 related to appreciated investments and
$19,725 to depreciated investments.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (the Manager) provides for an all-inclusive annual
fee, computed daily and paid monthly, equal to 0.85% of the fund's average
daily net assets.  Pursuant to the agreement, investment management,
