From the President
TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS
We are pleased to present this annual report for the Stein Roe tax-exempt bond
funds -- Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund, Stein Roe Intermediate
Municipals Fund, Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund, and Stein Roe High-Yield
Municipals Fund.
CHANGING WINDS
After more than a year of monetary tightening that successfully slowed
economic growth and inhibited inflation, the Federal Reserve embarked on a new
interest rate strategy early in the Funds' fiscal year. Spurred by slowing
government spending, declining auto sales, and fewer housing starts, the
Federal Reserve began to trim the benchmark federal funds rate target,
reducing it from 6.00 percent to 5.75 percent in July 1995, then to 5.50
percent in December 1995, and finally to 5.25 percent in January 1996. The
bond market rallied.
But the celebration was shortlived. As Washington failed to reach a
balanced budget agreement and currency speculators played U.S. and Japanese
interest rates against each other, the bond market weakened. Bond investors
seemed willing to brush off these events, however, as two government shutdowns
delayed key economic reports and hinted at continued economic sluggishness and
further rate cuts. In early March, however, an astonishing payroll report put
the number of jobs created at the highest level since January 1995. This data
suggested far stronger economic growth than anyone had anticipated, which in
turn implied a possible spike in inflation -- the bane of bondholders. As a
result, many believed the Federal Reserve would have to raise short-term
interest rates to keep inflation under control. The bond markets plummeted. In
fact, the selloff was so sharp that it prompted comparisons to 1994, when a
sudden change in market sentiment regarding interest rates contributed to one
of the worst bear bond markets in history.

GOOD NEWS
The bond market ended an otherwise dismal first half of 1996 on a positive
note, however. The yield on the benchmark 30-year Treasury bond, which had
reached a mid-June peak of 7.2 percent, eased by month's end, indicating the
bond market finally may have brushed off the rever berations of
stronger-than-expected economic reports -- at least for the time being. This
was particularly good news for bond investors since, before this turn around,
June figured to be the fifth consecutive losing month for bonds in terms of
total return. Previously, even in bear bond markets, stretches of four losing
months had invariably been followed by a rebound of at least one or two
months.
The fixed income markets remain volatile, however. And although the bond
market has, in effect, tightened monetary policy already, without the Federal
Reserve having to raise a hand -- or interest rates -- the possibility of a
rate hike remains. That's because the economy appears to be growing at a
fairly robust pace, with economic growth expected to top 3.5 percent for the
second quarter. At the same time, unemploy ment continues to hover at
near-record lows. But while recent economic reports increase the chance of a
rate hike, they in no way guarantee one. While we believe it's possible that
the Federal Reserve might raise interest rates a quarter to a half percentage
point at its next meeting, we think economic growth will slow later in the
year of its own accord, preventing the need for any further rate increases. So
while some volatility may continue in the near term, we believe the bond
market should stabilize by year-end 1996. In fact, we believe bonds represent
an attractive investment right now. Because stocks generally tend to be
considered riskier than bonds, the stock market's rate of return, as measured
by the S&P 500, is usually about 2.5 percentage points above the yield of the
10-year Treasury bond. Lately, however, the spread has closed to less than 1.5
points, which is narrower than at any time since the summer of 1987.
Historically, whenever the stock market has moved into this territory, it
usually has foreshadowed either a market correction or an extended period of
relatively flat performance. Consequently, we think bonds could be a safe
refuge in the months ahead.
THE BASICS
While past performance is no guarantee of future results, and no one can
predict what might happen to bond funds or the markets in the future, we
believe investors must understand the factors that move the markets, not just
to profit from them, but to gain the patience to ride out short-term
volatility in their investments. As always, no matter what direction you think
the economy is heading, it is important to remember the basics. Think long
term and re-evaluate your investment portfolio from time to time to make sure
it continues to match your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon. And try to
follow a regular investment plan. By investing a certain amount of money each
month or each quarter, you can take advantage of dollar-cost averaging. Of
course, not everyone is in a position to follow a regular investment plan. And
it neither ensures a profit nor protects against a loss in a declining market.
This simple strategy, however, can help to turn market volatility to your
advantage.
Please call us at 800-338-2550 with your comments and suggestions. As
always, we look forward to serving your investment needs.
Sincerely,
Timothy K. Armour
President

Fund Performance
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You
can look at the cumulative return percentage, the average annual return
percentage, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Each
performance figure includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment
of any dividends (net investment income) and capital gains (the profits the
fund earns when it sells fixed income securities that have grown in value).

MAKING THE MOST OF PERFORMANCE
The wide assortment of performance data available today can be a mixed
blessing. On one hand, a fund's performance results can be a valuable source
of information when considering an investment. On the other hand, even
seasoned investors may find the wide array of data and the different methods
of interpretation confusing.
That's why one of the most important pieces of advice we can give you is
to remember that a fund's past performance is just that -- past. While a
fund's past performance is not a guarantee of how it will perform in the
future, it can help you make rational decisions about the funds you currently
hold or about funds you might be considering. Owning bond funds helps to
provide diversification, and, as a result, can help to reduce a portfolio's
risks. And because bond funds have an income component, bond portfolio returns
tend to be less volatile than stock funds. Nonetheless, bond fund returns and
share prices will fluctuate as interest rates change. The price and total
return of a mutual fund will change daily and if you sell your shares during a
down turn in the market, you might lose money. But, if you can ride out the
market's ups and downs, your fund might achieve a gain.
No one can make your financial decisions better than you. We hope this
report helps you to better understand and evaluate your fund's performance,
and serves as a helpful aid in making intelligent, appropriate investment
decisions. If you have any questions, please call a Stein Roe account
representative at 800-338-2550.

Q&A
AN INTERVIEW WITH VERONICA WALLACE,
PORTFOLIO MANAGER OF SR&F MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
PHOTOGRAPHIC IMAGE OF VERONICA WALLACE.
MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET FUND DATA
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:
Seeks maximum current tax-free income consistent with safety of capital and
maintenance of liquidity by investing principally in a diversified
portfolio of short-term municipal securities.
FUND INCEPTION:
March 15, 1983
TOTAL NET ASSETS:
$120.4 million
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A: With a 3.13 percent return for the year ended June 30, the Fund outpaced
the 3.10 percent median return of its Lipper tax-exempt money market fund peer
group. The Fund's seven-day current tax-exempt yield was 2.89 percent at June
30, 1996 -- that's a tax-equivalent yield of 4.76 percent.
Q: WHAT AFFECTED PERFORMANCE?
A: Our performance has been boosted in the last six months by a substantial
weighting in variable rate notes. As of June 30, these repre sented nearly 60
percent of the Fund's total net assets. Because their rates are free to move
with interest rates, variable rate notes tend to do well in the kind of rising
rate environment we've recently been experiencing.
Q: DURING THE FIRST SEVEN MONTHS OF THE FUND'S FISCAL YEAR, THE FEDERAL
RESERVE EASED RATES THREE TIMES -- IN JULY AND DECEMBER 1995 AND AGAIN IN
JANUARY 1996. NOW, SOME INVESTORS THINK CURRENT INFLATION DATA MERIT A
REVERSAL OF MONETARY POLICY. WHAT ARE THE MOST RECENT INDICATIONS?
A: Certainly strong employment numbers and other economic indicators have
raised questions among investors and contributed to choppiness in the markets
recently. And while inflation remains rela tively low, the market is convinced
that the Federal Reserve will tighten in the third quarter and it already has
factored about a half-point into current rates.
Yet the data have been too mixed to say with any degree of certainty that
inflation is on the rise. Our economists continue to believe that inflation
will remain subdued, that growth will slow to a more sustainable level by
December 1996, and that interest rates, while rising in the near term, most
likely will drift down again by year-end 1996.
Recent data seem to help confirm our view. The fears of an economic boom
that roiled the bond markets in June seem to have calmed for the time being.
Long-term Treasury bond yields, for example, have fallen recently.
<PAGE>
Q: HOW IS THIS AFFECTING YOUR STRATEGY FOR THE FUND?
A: Throughout the most recent quarter, stronger-than-expected economic reports
led us to believe the Federal Reserve might make a tightening move. As a
result, we maintained a neutral position, a move that we believed would allow
us to respond quickly to changes in interest rates. Accordingly, we allowed
attrition to take the Fund's average maturity as low as 40 days during the
quarter.
We did, however, take advantage of the annual note issuance -- which occurs
in the last two weeks of June -- to purchase notes. This raised the Fund's
average maturity to 53 days on June 30.
Q: LOOKING AHEAD, WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE FUND?
A: Despite evidence that economic growth remained strong, the Federal Reserve
did not tighten rates at its July meeting. We think the Federal Reserve could
still make a tightening move this summer, however, and we've adopted a
wait-and-see attitude for the time being. We are keeping a majority of the
portfolio in weeklies and dailies -- with very little expo sure to securities
longer than 90 days. The Fund currently is in a short, but relatively neutral,
position. We think this will allow us to respond quickly to further interest
rate moves.
PAST PERFORMANCE IS NO GUARANTEE OF FUTURE RESULTS. SHARE PRICE AND INVESTMENT
RETURN WILL VARY, SO YOU MAY HAVE A GAIN OR A LOSS WHEN YOU SELL SHARES.
Portfolio holdings as of June 30, 1996; portfolio data subject to change.
Total return performance includes changes in share price and reinvestment of
income and capital gains distributions. Tax-equivalent yield is shown in the
39.6 percent tax bracket, which applies to investors with incomes higher than
$263,750 per year. Tax-free income is exempt from federal taxes, but may be
subject to state and local taxes and federal alternative minimum tax. The
Adviser currently limits expenses to 0.70 percent of average net assets,
subject to termination upon 30 days' notice. Absent past limits, the seven-day
current tax-free and tax-equivalent yields at June 30, 1996, would have been
2.81 percent and 4.68 percent, respectively, and total return would have been
less. An investment in the Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the U.S.
government, and there is no assurance that the Fund will be able to maintain
its stable net asset value of $1 per share. According to Lipper Analytical
Services, Inc., an independent monitor of mutual fund performance, the median
returns for the Fund's tax-exempt money market fund peer group for the one-,
five- and 10-year periods ended June 30, 1996, were 3.10 percent, 2.71 percent
and 3.81 percent, respectively.

Q&A
AN INTERVIEW WITH JOANNE COSTOPOULOS,
PORTFOLIO MANAGER OF INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPALS FUND
Photographic image of Joanne Costopoulos.
INTERMEDIATE MUNICIPALS FUND DATA
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:
Seeks high current yield exempt from federal income tax, con sistent with
capital preservation, through investments primarily in the three highest
grades of intermediate-term municipal securities. The dollar-weighted
average maturity of the Fund's portfolio is between three and 10 years.
FUND INCEPTION:
October 9, 1985
TOTAL NET ASSETS:
$204.7 million
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A: For the year ended June 30, 1996, we posted a total return of 5.47 percent,
which compares favorably to the 4.80 percent median return of our Lipper
intermediate municipal debt fund peer group. The Fund's 30-day standardized
yield at June 30, 1996, was 4.68 percent -- that's a tax-equivalent yield of
7.74 percent.
We lagged the 6.39 percent return of the Lehman 10-Year Municipal Bond
Index, primarily because the Fund seeks to main tain a higher-quality
portfolio, shorter maturity, and shorter duration than the Index. Because
Intermediate Municipals Fund's average maturity tends to center around eight
years, we think it may be useful to compare the Fund to an index that measures
performance for a similar maturity profile, such as the Lehman 7-Year
Municipal Bond Index. Intermediate Municipals' one-year performance more
nearly approximated the 5.54 percent return of the 7-Year Municipal Bond
Index.
Q: WHAT CAUSED THE FUND'S FAVORABLE PERFORMANCE THIS YEAR?
A: We've done well with our holdings of revenue bonds, particularly water and
sewer bonds. These are often called "essential purpose" revenue bonds --
meaning that people will always need water and sewer services, regardless of
how slowly the economy is growing. As a result, these bonds tend to offer a
chance for more relative stability in a bear bond market, such as we're now
experiencing.
The Fund also benefited from the structure of the individual securities it
held. We have been avoiding lower-coupon bonds in the intermediate part of the
curve since the inception of market discount legislation. In an environment of
rising interest rates, bonds that are trading at a discount to their face
value are subject to ordinary income tax and therefore trade on an after-tax
basis. A buyer of this type of structure would pay ordinary income tax, while
a seller would be giving up more since the bonds trade on an after-tax yield.
To help avoid passing on taxable income to our share holders, and to help
avoid the downside associated with this structure, we have been investing in
higher-coupon, or "premium" bonds.
<PAGE>
Q: WHAT OTHER FACTORS HAVE AFFECTED PERFORMANCE?
A: A number of events combined to roil the municipal bond markets throughout
the year, including tax reform discussions during the Republican primaries, a
breakdown in federal budget talks during the winter, and, more recently,
uncertainty about the direction of interest rates and reports of
stronger-than-expected economic growth. As a result, we've experienced a great
deal of volatility during the year.
I think we've done a good job of managing our duration in response to
changes in the yield curve. Weighted average adjusted duration is an
expression of a bond mutual fund's sensitivity to interest rates. If a bond
has a duration of five and interest rates fall by 1 percent, for example, the
bond's price should rise by approximately 5 percent. As a portfolio manager, I
lengthen or shorten the Fund's average duration based on where I think
interest rates are going. As of June 30, 1996, the Fund's duration was 5.9,
and it had been as high as 6.3 during the year.
Q: HOW ARE YOU POSITIONING THE FUND FOR THE CURRENT ENVIRONMENT?
A: The tax-exempt yield curve flattened recently; one-year to 10-year
maturities gave up 15 basis points, while longer maturities gave up only five
basis points. We've begun shifting assets from the 15-year range into the
10-year sector in an effort to help lower the portfolio's volatility without
sacrificing yield.
In addition, as city and state economies improve, we expect the general
obligation sector to outperform the revenue sector. In keeping with this view,
we recently shifted assets out of essential purpose revenue bonds into general
obligation bonds to take advantage of favorable price movements.
Q: WHAT ARE YOUR EXPECTATIONS?
A: We see an even chance of a Federal Reserve tightening move in the near
term. Still, as we've said, we think interest rates could peak in the near
term and may even begin declining by year end. As a result, we think the
Fund's slightly longer duration positions it well to take advantage of a
lower-rate environment over the longer term.

AN INTERVIEW WITH JANE MCCART, PORTFOLIO MANAGER OF
MANAGED MUNICIPALS FUND AND HIGH-YIELD MUNICIPALS FUND
Photographic image of Jane McCart.
MANAGED MUNICIPALS FUND DATA
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:
Pursues high tax-free income consistent with capital preservation by
investing in a quality-conscious portfolio of long-term municipal
securities.
FUND INCEPTION:
February 23, 1977
TOTAL NET ASSETS:
$606.4 million
MANAGED MUNICIPALS FUND
Q: HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A: With a 6.24 percent return for the year ended June 30, 1996, Managed
Municipals Fund outstripped the 5.66 percent return of the Lipper general
municipal debt fund peer group, but lagged the Lehman Municipal Bond Index
return of 6.64 percent.
As of June 30, the Fund's 30-day standardized yield was 5.24 percent --
that translates into a tax-equivalent yield of 8.68 percent.
Q: WHAT DROVE YOUR PERFORMANCE?
A: Performance against the peer group was boosted by our holdings of
noncallable bonds, which continued to perform solidly throughout the year.
More recently, we also benefited from our higher weightings in housing and
hospital issues, the strongest performers of the last few months.
Q: WHY ARE YOU CONTINUING TO FOCUS ON NONCALLABLE BONDS?
A: We've been emphasizing noncall able bonds for the last three years
since we determined that these bonds offered an opportunity for appreciation
unmatched in other structures. Unlike callable bonds, noncallable bonds cannot
be called out of the market, and their price movement is not obstructed by
call features. As a result, the price of a noncallable bond is not hindered
from moving upward in a strong market. Noncallable bonds have continued to
reward our investment.
Still, inflows into municipal funds currently are at record lows. Because
we prefer to hold on to our noncallable bonds -- which totaled 42 percent of
total net assets on June 30 -- our ability to take advantage of buying
opportunities has been limited. This, coupled with the fact that roughly 50
percent of bonds coming to the market are insured --and, as such, are issued
at lower yields and higher ratings -- has made capturing additional yield
in the portfolio more difficult in recent months.
<PAGE>
Q: IN AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE MORE THAN HALF OF THE ISSUES COMING TO MARKET ARE
INSURED, WHERE DO YOU FIND OPPORTUNITIES?
A: Insured bonds are dramatically reducing the opportunities for making credit
plays -- investing in a credit in the belief that it will be upgraded, for
example. We think it's still possible to capture yield by playing the yield
curve and, if you're willing, by taking extreme positions. An extreme position
might be over weighting in longer maturities, holding a great deal of cash, or
investing in lower-rated, or high-yield, credits. We've already seen a lot of
activity in lower-rated bonds. As the demand for yield takes on extra urgency,
investors who would typically avoid high-yield bonds have been increasingly
drawn into the high-yield market.
Q: HOW HAVE YOU CHANGED YOUR STRATEGY THIS YEAR?
A: In the last six months, we've become more concerned about the direction of
interest rates. As a result, we took a more defensive position in the
portfolio, shortening maturity modestly and varying our cash position from 4
percent to 6 percent during the most recent quarter.
Q: WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A: While we continue to be concerned about growth, inflation and the
possibility of rising interest rates in the near term, mixed data are clouding
the economic picture. We expect to maintain a more defensive posture in the
near term. And while rising rates are dampening supply, where possible we'll
continue to take advantage of relative value oppor tunities as well as supply
imbalances. We'll be looking for pockets of supply, particularly in specialty
states such as New York, California and Connecticut.

Analytical Services, Inc., an independent monitor of mutual fund performance,
the median returns for the Fund's general municipal debt fund peer group for
the one-, five- and 10-year periods ended June 30, 1996, were 5.66 percent,
7.37 percent and 7.64 percent, respectively.

HIGH-YIELD MUNICIPALS FUND DATA
INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE:
Seeks a high level of tax-free income consistent with capital preservation
by investing in longer-term municipal securities, principally of medium and
lower quality.
FUND INCEPTION:
March 5, 1984
TOTAL NET ASSETS:
$283.0 million
HIGH-YIELD MUNICIPALS FUND
Q: HOW WAS THE FUND'S YEAR?
A: As of June 30, 1996, High-Yield Municipals Fund's one-year return was 6.83
percent, which outper formed both the Lehman Municipal Bond Index return of
6.64 percent and the 5.86 percent median return of the Fund's peer group, the
Lipper high-yield municipal debt fund category.
The Fund's 30-day standardized yield was 5.77 percent on June 30 --that's a
tax-equivalent yield of 9.56 percent.
Q: OVERALL, THE FUND'S PERFORMANCE AGAINST BOTH THE INDEX AND PEER GROUP WAS
STRONG. WHAT BOOSTED PER FORMANCE AND WHAT, IF ANYTHING, HELD YOU BACK?
A: During most of the fiscal year, high-yield bonds as a sector turned in a
strong performance. With its focus in high-yield bonds, the Fund benefited
accordingly. The lack of new-issue supply in high-yield bonds contributed to
the high-yield sector's performance, as demand outstripped supply.
Airlines have continued to post strong earnings, and our airline holdings
fared well accordingly. Our toll road holdings, which are new construction
projects, also registered strong performances as these projects have commenced
and are within budget.
An overweighting in high-coupon housing issues in the portfolio helped
cushion the Fund from a rising-rate environment -- the income and price
stability of these issues helped withstand the volatility we have seen in the
fixed income markets.
We saw some widening in credit spreads from our utility holdings as a
result of uncertainty following the deregulation of the utility sector.
Deregulation will affect both the municipal and public power sectors.
Finally, our paper holdings did well in the beginning of the fiscal year,
but lost some ground as paper prices have come down from their highs. While
paper companies are doing relatively well, the earnings performance we saw in
the beginning of the fiscal year has not been sustainable. We're watching
closely as the paper companies attempt to keep costs in line and institute
price increases.
<PAGE>
Q: SO WHERE ARE YOU FINDING OPPORTUNITIES NOW?
A: With a continuing trend toward consolidation among hospitals, and
increasing concerns about govern ment medical programs, we think our weaker
health care holdings could suffer some deterioration in credit quality. As a
result, we swapped these holdings for a continuing care facility -- an
opportunity we've been scouting for some time. That's because the baby boomers
started to turn 50 this year. As this enormous force in the market grows
increas ingly gray, we think demand for quality continuing care will grow,
too.
We also recently purchased a co-generation plant, which uses waste
products -- in this case, wood chips -- to make energy.
Q: WHAT ARE YOUR EXPECTATIONS FOR THE FUND?
A: With roughly 10 percent of total net assets held in bonds issued by
cyclicals, and some expectations of slower growth ahead, we're keeping a close
eye on credit quality. We'll monitor paper prices as well as hospital and
airline trends for signs of weakness.

Investing in high-yield bonds involves greater credit and other risks not
associated with investing in higher-quality securities.

Shareholders Approve Four Proposals
At a special meeting on June 18, 1996, shareholders of Stein Roe Municipal
Money Market Fund, Intermediate Municipals Fund, Managed Municipals Fund and
High-Yield Municipals Fund voted to approve proposals relating to an election
of each Fund's Board of Trustees, modifications to certain investment policies
and new management and administrative agreements. The approved proposals
include:
(A) Expansion of Board of Trustees
Each Fund's Board was a) expanded from seven to nine members; nine members
were elected to each Board. This expansion will help Stein Roe to facilitate
the transition of responsibilities from retiring board members to new board
members over an 18-month period. Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund
shareholders also separately voted to b) authorize the Fund to cast votes for
the election of a Board of Trustees of SR&F Base Trust.
(B) Interfund Borrowing
(C) Interfund Lending
Cash management is an important part of the investment process for mutual
funds. An a) interfund lending/borrowing program--a program that allows mutual
funds to borrow cash from and lend cash to each other--gives the funds an
additional credit facility to meet emergency needs at terms that would be at
least as favorable as a third party transaction, such as a bank line of
credit. Stein Roe expects to engage in interfund borrowing only when we think
it would be more favorable to both funds than borrowing from a third party.
Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund shareholders also separately voted to b)
authorize the Fund to vote for approval of a similar amendment to the
fundamental restrictions of SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio.
(D) Administrative and Management Agreements
The Investment Advisory agreements for Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund,
Managed Municipals Fund and High-Yield Municipals Fund are replaced by
separate a) Administrative and b) Portfolio Management Agreements. These new
agreements essentially carry forward, under two separate agreements, the
investment advisory and management services Stein Roe & Farnham already
provides to each Fund. Separate agreements will facilitate, at a future date,
the pooling of each Fund's assets with assets of other funds that have
identical investment objectives. The resulting larger pool of assets would be
managed by Stein Roe & Farnham.

Notes To Financial Statements
NOTE 1. ORGANIZATION OF THE SR&F MUNICIPAL MONEY MARKET PORTFOLIO
The SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio") is a separate
series of the SR&F Base Trust, a Massachusetts common trust organized under an
Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated August 23, 1993. The Declaration of
Trust permits the Trustees to issue non-transferable interests in the
Portfolio. The Portfolio commenced operation on September 28, 1995. At
commencement, the Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund contributed $131,563
in securities and other assets and the Colonial Municipal Money Market Fund
contributed $24,119 in securities and other assets, which represented
ownership of 84.5 percent and 15.5 percent, respectively.
The Portfolio allocates net asset value, income and expenses based on
respective percentage ownership of each investor on a daily basis. At June 30,
1996, Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund and Colonial Municipal Money
Market Fund owned 85 percent and 15 percent, respectively.
NOTE 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The following are the significant accounting policies of the Stein Roe
Municipal Money Market Fund, Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund, Stein Roe
Managed Municipals Fund, and Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund (the
"Funds"), each a series of the Stein Roe Municipal Trust (a Massachusetts
business trust) and, the SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio (the
"Portfolio"), a series of the SR&F Base Trust (a Massachusetts business
trust). The policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates
and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of increases and decreases in net assets
from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from
those estimates.
<PAGE>
SECURITY VALUATIONS
All securities are valued as of June 28, 1996, the last business day in the
period. Municipal securities are valued at a fair value using a procedure
determined in good faith by the Board of Trustees, which has authorized the
use of bid valuations provided by a pricing service, except for the Portfolio.
Municipal securities of the Portfolio are valued at amortized cost, which
approxi mates market value. This method involves valuing an instrument at cost
on the purchase date and thereafter assuming a constant amortization to
maturity of any discount or premium, regardless of the impact of fluctuating
interest rates on the market value of the instrument and does not take into
account unrealized securities gains or losses. In the event that a deviation
of 1/2 of 1 percent or more exists between the Stein Roe Municipal Money
Market Fund's $1.00 per share net asset value, calculated at amor tized cost,
and the net asset value calculated by reference to market quotations, the
Board of Trustees would consider what action, if any, should be taken. Other
securities and assets are valued by a method that the Board of Trustees
believes represents a fair value.
FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Funds may enter into futures contracts to either hedge against expected
declines of their portfolio securities or as a temporary substitute for the
purchase of individual bonds. Risks of entering into futures contracts include
the possibility that there may be an illiquid market at the time the Fund
seeks to close out a contract, and changes in the value of the futures
contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the portfolio
securities being hedged.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund deposits with its custodian
cash or securities in an amount sufficient to meet the initial margin
requirements. Subsequent payments are made or received by the Fund equal to
the daily change in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains or
losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is
closed or expires. None of the Funds entered into futures contracts during the
year ended June 30, 1996.
FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
No provision is made for federal income taxes since each of the Funds elect to
be taxed as "regulated investment companies" and each make such distribu tions
to their shareholders as to be relieved of all federal income taxes under
provisions of current federal tax law. All dividends paid from net investment
income by the Funds constitute tax-exempt interest that is not taxable for
federal income tax purposes; however, a portion of the dividends paid
may be includable in the alternative minimum tax calculation.
<PAGE>
The Funds intend to utilize provisions of the federal income tax laws,
which allow them to carry a realized capital loss forward up to eight years
following the year of the loss, and offset such losses against any future
realized gains. At June 30, 1996, the Funds had capital loss carryforwards as
follows:
YEAR OF
FUND AMOUNT EXPIRATION
Managed
Municipals $2,457 2003-2004
High-Yield
Municipals 3,458 2003-2004
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid monthly.
Capital gain distributions, if any, are distributed annually. Distributions in
excess of tax basis earnings are reported in the financial statements as a
return of capital. Differences in the recognition or classification of income
between the financial statements and tax earnings that result in temporary
overdistri butions are classified as distributions in excess of net investment
income or net realized gains, and any perma nent differences are reclassified
to paid-in capital. None of the Funds had distri butions in excess of net
investment income or net realized gains for the year ended June 30, 1996.
OTHER INFORMATION
Realized gains or losses from sales of securities are determined on the
specific identified cost basis. Securities purchased on a when-issued or
delayed delivery basis may be settled a month or more after the transaction
date. These securities are subject to market fluctuation during this period.
None of the Funds had when-issued or delayed delivery purchase commitments as
of June 30, 1996. The Municipal Money Market Fund attempts to maintain its net
asset value per share at $1.00, which it believes will be possible under most
conditions. Original issue discounts and premiums on municipal securities of
Intermediate Municipals Fund, Managed Municipals Fund and High-Yield
Municipals Fund are accreated or amortized. A maturity date is not shown for
municipal securities bearing variable or floating interest rates that are
adjusted periodically to minimize fluctuations in the value of such
securities. All amounts, except per-share amounts, are shown in thousands.
<PAGE>
NOTE 3. PORTFOLIO COMPOSITION
The Funds and the Portfolio invest in municipal securities including, but not
limited to, general obligation bonds, revenue bonds and escrowed bonds (which
are bonds that have been refinanced, the proceeds of which have been invested
in U.S. government or agency obligations and set aside to pay off the original
issue at the first call date or maturity). See Fund Highlights for each Fund's
and the Portfolio's security type breakdown. The Funds' and the Portfolio's
investments include certain municipal securities that are insured by private
insurers who guarantee the payment of principal and interest in the event of
default. At June 30, 1996, investments in these securities for Intermediate
Municipals Fund and Managed Municipals Fund represented 51.0 and 19.5 percent
of the portfolio, respectively. The SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio's
investments include certain short-term securities that are backed by bank
letters of credit used to provide liquidity to the issuer and/or additional
security in the event of default by the issuer. At June 30, 1996, 53.1 percent
of the Portfolio was backed by bank letters of credit. See each Fund's or the
Portfolio's schedule of investments for additional information on portfolio
composition and Fund Highlights for each Fund's portfolio quality (unaudited).
Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund invests all of its investable assets in
the Portfolio.
NOTE 4. TRUSTEES' FEES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
The Funds and the Portfolio pay a monthly management fee to Stein Roe &
Farnham Incorporated (the "Adviser"), an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary
of Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, for its services as investment adviser
and manager. Prior to the commencement of operations of the Portfolio
(September 28, 1995), the Municipal Money Market Fund paid a management fee to
the adviser of .50 of 1 percent of average daily net assets. Upon commencement
of the Portfolio operations, the investment advisory agreement was replaced
with separate management and adminstrative agreements in which the management
fee for the Portfolio is computed at an annual rate of .25 of 1 percent of
average daily net assets, and the administrative fee for the Fund is computed
at an annual rate of .25 of 1 percent of average daily net assets up to $500
million, .20 of 1 percent of average daily net assets for the next $500
million and .15 of 1 percent thereafter. The management fee for the
Inter-mediate Municipals Fund and High-Yield Municipals Fund are computed at
an annual rate of .60 of 1 percent of the first $100 million of average daily
net assets, .55 of 1 percent of the next $100 million, and .50 of 1 percent
thereafter. For Managed Municipals Fund, the management fee is computed at an
annual rate of .60 of 1 percent of the first $100 million of average daily net
assets, .55 of 1 percent of the next $100 million, .50 of 1 percent of the
next $800 million, and .45 of 1 percent thereafter.
<PAGE>
Effective July 1, 1996, as a result of shareholder vote, the Funds'
investment advisory agreements were replaced by separate administrative and
management agreements. The administrative fee for the Intermediate Municipals
Fund and High-Yield Municipals Fund will be .15 of 1 percent of the first $100
million of average daily net assets, .125 of 1 percent of the next $100
million, and .10 of 1 percent thereafter. The administrative fee for the
Managed Municipals Fund will be .15 of 1 percent of the first $100 million of
average daily net assets, .125 of 1 percent of the next $100 million, .10 of 1
percent of the next $800 million, and .075 of 1 percent thereafter. The
management fee for the Intermediate Municipals Fund and the High-Yield
Municipals Fund will be .45 of 1 percent of the first $100 million of average
daily net assets, .425 of 1 percent of the next $100 million, and .40 of 1
percent thereafter. The management fee for the Managed Municipals Fund will be
.45 of 1 percent of the first $100 million of average daily net assets, .425
of 1 percent of the next $100 million, .40 of 1 percent of the next $800
million, and .375 thereafter. There is no increase in the aggregate fees paid
to the Adviser due to these changes.
The investment advisory agreements of the Intermediate Municipals, Managed
Municipals and High-Yield Municipals Funds and the administration agreement
for the Municipal Money Market Fund provide that the Adviser will reimburse
each of the Funds to the extent that their annual expenses, excluding certain
expenses, exceed the applicable limits prescribed by any state in which the
Funds' shares are offered for sale. In addition, the Adviser has agreed to
reimburse Municipal Money Market Fund and Intermediate Municipals Fund for
expenses in excess of .70 of 1 percent of average daily net assets. These
expense limitations expire October 31, 1997, subject to earlier termination by
the Adviser on 30 days' notice.
The transfer agent fees of the Funds are paid to SteinRoe Services, Inc.
(SSI), an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of Liberty Mutual Insurance
Company. Effective July 3, 1996, SSI entered into an agreement with Colonial
Investors Service Center, Inc., an indirect, majority-owned subsidiary of
Liberty Mutual Insurance Company to act as sub-transfer agent for the Funds.
The Adviser also provides certain accounting services. For the year ended
June 30, 1996, the Municipal Money Market Fund, Intermediate Municipals Fund,
Managed Municipals Fund, High-Yield Municipals Fund and the Portfolio incurred
charges of $27, $29, $40, $31 and $21, respectively, for these services.
Certain officers and trustees of the Trust are also officers of the
Adviser. The compensation of trustees not affiliated with the Adviser for
Municipal Money Market Fund, Intermediate Municipals Fund, Managed Municipals
Fund, High-Yield Municipals, and the Portfolio for the year ended June 30,
1996, was $22, $22, $36, $29 and $6, respectively. No remuneration was paid to
any other trustee or officer of the Trust.
<PAGE>
NOTE 5. SHORT-TERM DEBT
To facilitate portfolio liquidity, the Funds and Portfolio maintain borrowing
arrangements under which they can borrow against portfolio securities. There
were no borrowings for any of the Funds or the Portfolio during the year ended
June 30, 1996.
NOTE 6. INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS

Report of Independent Auditors

and SR&F Base Trust
Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund
Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals Fund
Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund
Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals Fund
SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio
We have audited the accompanying balance sheets, including the schedules of
investments, of Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund, Stein Roe Intermediate
Municipals Fund, Stein Roe Managed Municipals Fund, Stein Roe High-Yield
Municipals Fund, and SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio as of June 30,
1996, and the related statements of operations for the period then ended and
changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended
(except for SR&F Municipal Money Market Portfolio, as to which the period is
from September 28, 1995 to June 30, 1996), and the financial highlights for
the periods indicated thereon. These financial statements and financial
highlights are the responsibility of the Funds' and Portfolio's management.
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and
financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities
owned as of June 30, 1996, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial positions of
Stein Roe Municipal Money Market Fund, Stein Roe Intermediate Municipals,
Stein Roe Managed Municipals, Stein Roe High-Yield Municipals, and SR&F
Municipal Money Market Portfolio at June 30, 1996, and the results of their
operations, the changes in their net assets, and their financial highlights
for the periods referred to above, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principals.
