                         SEMI-ANNUAL SHAREHOLDER REPORT

To Shareholders

During 1994 the economy remained stronger than economists and money managers had
anticipated  at the start of the year. In response to this  strength,  and in an
attempt to keep  inflation  in check,  the  Federal  Reserve  raised  short-term
interest rates six times in 1994 and once again in 1995.  Long-term  rates moved
upward as well and, as a result, the prices of municipal bonds dropped.

But the market  slide was not the only  concern in 1994.  Many  shareholders  of
Eaton Vance tax free mutual funds may have  wondered  whether the problems  that
surfaced in Orange County,  California, had in any way affected their investment
in our  non-California  tax free funds.  The answer is no.  After a brief period
during which the value of California  bonds  declined,  the market realized that
this was a local problem.  Eaton Vance  non-California  portfolios have not been
impacted.


This chart is entitled as follows:  "In 1994, long-term interest rates hit their
highest level in 3 years."

Below the title is a  three-dimensional  line graph labeled,  "Month-end 30-year
Treasuries  rate." The axis  ascending  on the left side of the chart is labeled
from 5% to 8% at one-percent intervals.  Along the bottom of the chart, the axis
lists dates from 3/92 to 3/95, at one-year intervals.

The high point of interest  rates during that period,  8.04%,  is labeled on the
chart and occurred near the end of the period being measured.

Despite the difficulties that beset the market in 1994, we feel optimistic about
prospects for 1995. The market now appears  convinced  that the Federal  Reserve
is, in fact, keeping a tight watch on inflation.  And, while it is impossible to
predict the outcomes of government  initiatives,  it appears that  proposals put
forth by the new  Congress  to cut  spending  and taxes  could  have an  overall
positive effect if enacted.

This  report  features  some  changes  which we hope  will  help  you to  better
understand your investment,  and how your Portfolio's  holdings help provide the
means for the Federal  government,  as well as state and local  governments,  to
fund such projects as roads,  bridges,  hospitals and schools.  Each Fund review
includes  a  Portfolio  Overview,  or  snapshot,  as well as  comments  from the
portfolio manager.In addition,  we are profiling a specific bond holding of each
Portfolio.

Regardless of what lies ahead for the economy, the goal of your Fund remains the
same: to provide you with a competitive  distribution  of tax free income from a
portfolio of high-quality municipal bonds.+

Sincerely,

/s/ Thoms J. Fetter
    Thomas J. Fetter
    President
    May 19, 1995

IF YOU ARE A SHAREHOLDER OF EV  TRADITIONAL  FLORIDA TAX FREE FUND ... 

Your Fund paid to its shareholders  monthly income dividends totaling $0.297 per
share during the six months ending March 31, 1995.

Based on the most recent  dividend paid and the Fund's net asset value per share
of $10.33 on March 31, 1995, the Fund's  annualized  distribution  rate was 5.76
percent.  To equal that rate in a taxable  investment,  a couple in the combined
Federal and state 38.22 percent tax bracket would have to earn 9.32 percent.

IF YOU ARE A SHAREHOLDER OF EV TRADITIONAL NEW YORK TAX FREE FUND ...

Your Fund paid to its shareholders  monthly income dividends totaling $0.299 per
share during the six months ending March 31, 1995.

Based on the most recent  dividend paid and the Fund's net asset value per share

EV Traditional Florida Tax Free Fund

The Florida economy turned in generally  positive  results during 1994 and early
1995,  with an improving labor market,  as demonstrated by a lower  unemployment
rate, and an improved housing market.

Construction  activity was fairly strong in 1994, with new housing starts rising
more than 12  percent  during  the  year.  Toward  the end of the  year,  rising
interest rates slowed growth in this industry.

It is expected that higher interest rates will put a damper on the  construction
industry in 1995.  However,  the state projects a slight overall  decline in the
unemployment rate by the end of 1995.

Florida  officials  continue  to  worry  about  the  state's  important  tourism
industry.  In 1994,  the state had its worst year for tourism  since  1991.  The
number of tourists  arriving by air was actually up over 1993  figures,  but the
number of visitors  arriving by car declined 13 percent.  In all, the state says
that the total number of tourists  fell by nearly 3 percent,  to just under 39.9
million.

For 1995,  the state expects the economy to be generally  stronger than in 1994,
with a projected  population increase of 2 percent and personal income growth of
7.7 percent.

Orange County Housing Finance Authority Bonds

Tax-exempt  housing  continues to fulfill the need to provide  affordable,  safe
housing  for  Florida's  low-to-moderate-income  and elderly  residents  who are
unable to afford market-rate rents.

Although the complexion of Fedreal  housing  programs  promises to change in the
future,   state  and  local  housing   authorities  are  becoming   increasingly
sophisticated in developing financing  mechanisms.  This should allow housing to
be delivered to eligible residents in an efficient and affordable manner.

Among the many housing  bonds held by the Portfolio are more than $20 million of
the Orange County housing bonds with varying maturities.

FROM THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER

"We have made a number of strategic moves within the Florida  Portfolio.  First,
 we are increasing the exposure to housing bonds, which are a high-quality, high
 income alternative to general obligation securities.

"In addition,  we continue to reduce the exposure to uninsured  hospitals.  This
 change  is  based on our  research  group's  view  that  the  rapidly  changing
 environment  for  health  care  institutions   provides  less  opportunity  for
 profitable operations than it did in the past.

"Also,  we have  increased  the  Portfolio's  exposure  to  securities  that our
 research group views as well-positioned or improving. The Jacksonville Electric
 Authority and Orlando  Utilities  Commission  bonds held in the Portfolio are a
 good example of these types of securities.

"Finally,  we have sold bonds having a lower book yield and purchased bonds with
 higher  book  yield,  capturing  the  value  of the  imbedded  tax loss for our
 shareholders."

EV Traditional New York Tax Free Fund

The  state of New York is at a  crossroad,  with its first  new  governor  in 12
years.  Gov.  George Pataki was elected  promoting a streamlined  agenda for the
state  that  called for  reducing  the  bureaucracy  and taxes  while  fostering
economic  development.  It is an  ambitious  agenda,  and it  remains to be seen
whether the  governor  will be able to  implement  the tax cuts and reforms that
would truly restructure state government.  Any actions will be taken against the
backdrop of a slower state  economy,  which is stalling under the weight of Wall
Street personnel cutbacks.

Standard & Poor's,  an independent  rating  agency,  rates the state A-. S&P has
indicated that it would  consider an upgrade if a realistic  budget is presented
on a timely  basis.  Given  that the budget is almost a week late at the time of
this writing,  that timetable may be difficult for the  legislature and governor
to meet.  However,  the  municipal  market  appears  more  comfortable  with the
governor's  proposals  than it was at election  time,  when state  appropriation
paper was underperforming because of credit uncertainties.

With a late budget situation developing,  the state could tip either way -- into
an improving or a deteriorating situation. However, we believe yields offered by
state appropriation  bonds continue to compensate  investors for the risk-reward
tradeoff.

Local Government Assistance Corporation Tax Revenue Bonds

Bonds issued by the NY Local Government Assistance  Corporation (LGAC) have been
among the best performers in the New York market over the last few months.

These  bonds,  rated A/A,  were once  traded  roughly  in line with other  state
appropriation  paper.  More  recently,  they  have  been  traded  in  line  with
high-grade New York paper,  such as the Tribe General Purpose bonds (A1/AA-) and
New York insured paper (Aaa/AAA).

Market dislocation in late 1994 and early 1995 allowed us to add modestly to our
LGAC position.

The bond's  security  is based on 1 percent of the state's  sales tax  revenues,
which  flow  into  a  "locked  box"  available  for  debt  service   subject  to
appropriation.  While we cannot  justify a rating on LGACs above the state's own
rating on general  obligation  bonds, we believe these bonds will continue to be
top performers given their limited future supply.

FROM THE PORTFOLIO MANAGER

"In the period from the election season through early 1995, state  appropriation
 paper  underperformed the market,  offering  buying  opportunities.  Spreads to
 high-grade New York bonds have returned to tighter  levels,  more reflective of
 historical relationships.

"The star  performer  in the New York market has been New York Local  Government
 Assistance Corporation. These bonds are profiled on this page.

"Discount coupon bonds have also been alternately in and out of favor, depending
 on the market's direction.  The prolonged market sell-off in 1994 allowed us to
 sell lower yielding bonds, replacing them with bonds having higher yields. This
 process  generated  capital  losses  that we will apply  against  shareholders'
 future capital gains."

<F4> Computed on an annualized basis.
<F5> The per share  amount is not in accord with the net realized and  unrealized  gains and losses for the period  because of the
     timing of sales of Fund shares and the amount of per share realized and unrealized gains and losses at such time.
<F6> Includes the Funds share of its corresponding Portfolios allocated expenses.
<F7> Total investment return is calculated assuming a purchase at the net asset value on the first day and a sale at the net asset
     value on the last day of each period reported.  Dividends and distributions,  if any, are assumed to be reinvested at the net
     asset value on the payable date.

(Traditional   Florida  Fund)  and  EV  Traditional   New  York  Tax  Free  Fund
(Traditional New York Fund).  Each Fund invests all of its investable  assets in
interests in a separate  corresponding open-end management investment company (a
Portfolio),  a New York  Trust,  having  the same  investment  objective  as its
corresponding  Fund.  The  Traditional  Florida  Fund  invests its assets in the
Florida Tax Free Portfolio and the  Traditional New York Fund invests its assets
in the New York Tax Free  Portfolio.  The value of each Funds  investment in its
corresponding  Portfolio  reflects the Funds  proportionate  interest in the net
assets of that  Portfolio  (0.3% and 0.4% at March 31, 1995 for the  Traditional
Florida Fund and  Traditional New York Fund,  respectively.)  The performance of
each  Fund  is  directly  affected  by  the  performance  of  its  corresponding
Portfolio.  The financial statements of each Portfolio,  including the portfolio
of  investments,  are  included  elsewhere  in this report and should be read in
conjunction with each Funds financial statements.  The following is a summary of
significant  accounting  policies  consistently  followed  by the  Trust  in the
preparation  of its financial  statements.  The policies are in conformity  with
generally accepted accounting  principles.

A.  INVESTMENT  VALUATIONS  -  Valuation  of  securities  by the  Portfolios  is
discussed in Note 1 of the Portfolios  Notes to Financial  Statements  which are
included elsewhere in this report.

B.  INCOME - Each Funds net  investment  income  consists of each Funds pro rata
share of the net  investment  income of its  corresponding  Portfolio,  less all
actual and accrued expenses of each Fund determined in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.

C.  FEDERAL  TAXES - Each Funds policy is to comply with the  provisions  of the
Internal  Revenue Code  applicable  to  regulated  investment  companies  and to
distribute to shareholders  each year all of its taxable and tax-exempt  income,
including any net realized gain on  investments.  Accordingly,  no provision for
federal  income  or  excise  tax  is  necessary.  At  September  30,  1994,  the
Traditional  Florida Fund, for federal  income tax purposes,  had a capital loss
carryover of $636 which will reduce the taxable  income  arising from future net
realized gains on investments,  if any, to the extent  permitted by the Internal
Revenue  Code,  and  thus  will  reduce  the  amount  of  the  distributions  to
shareholders  which  would  otherwise  be  necessary  to relieve the Fund of any
liability  for federal  income or excise tax. Such capital loss  carryover  will
expire on September 30, 2002.  Dividends  paid by each Fund from net interest on
tax-exempt  municipal bonds allocated from its  corresponding  Portfolio are not
includable  by  shareholders  as gross  income for federal  income tax  purposes
because  each Fund and  Portfolio  intend to meet  certain  requirements  of the
Internal  Revenue Code applicable to regulated  investment  companies which will
enable the Funds to pay exempt-interest dividends. The portion of such interest,
if any,  earned on private  activity  bonds issued after August 7, 1986,  may be
considered a tax preference item to shareholders.

D. DEFERRED  ORGANIZATION EXPENSES - Costs incurred by a Fund in connection with
its  organization,  including  registration  costs,  are being  amortized on the
straight-line  basis over five years,  beginning on the date each Fund commenced
operations.

E. OTHER - Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.

F. INTERIM FINANCIAL  INFORMATION - The interim financial statements relating to
March 31,  1995,  and the  six-month  period then ended have not been audited by
independent  certified  public  accountants,  but in the  opinion  of the  Funds
management  reflect  all  adjustments,   consisting  only  of  normal  recurring
adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

<PAGE>
- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(2) DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS

The net income of each Fund is determined daily and substantially all of the net
income so determined is declared as a dividend to  shareholders of record at the
time of declaration.  Distributions are paid monthly. Distributions of allocated
net realized capital gains, if any, are made at least annually. Shareholders may
reinvest capital gain  distributions  in additional  shares of a Fund at the net
asset value as of the ex-dividend  date.  Distributions  are paid in the form of
additional  shares or, at the election of the  shareholder,  in cash.

The Funds  distinguish  between  distributions  on a tax  basis and a  financial
reporting basis.  Generally  accepted  accounting  principles  require that only
distributions  in excess of tax basis  earnings  and  profits be 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 and
profits which result in temporary over  distributions  for financial  statements
purposes are classified as distributions  in excess of net investment  income or
accumulated  net  realized  gains.  Permanent  differences  between book and tax
accounting relating to distributions are reclassified to paid-in capital.

- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3) SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

The Funds Declaration of Trust permits the Trustees to issue an unlimited number
of full and  fractional  shares of  beneficial  interest  (without  par  value).

(4) TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Eaton Vance  Management  (EVM)  serves as the  administrator  of each Fund,  but
receives no  compensation.  The Portfolios  have engaged  Boston  Management and
Research (BMR), a subsidiary of EVM, to render investment advisory services. See
Note 2 of the  Portfolios  Notes to  Financial  Statements  which  are  included
elsewhere  in this  report.  To enhance  the net income of the Funds for the six
months  ended March 31,  1995,  $11,986  and $12,040 of expenses  related to the
operation  of the  Traditional  Florida  Fund and  Traditional  New  York  Fund,
respectively,  were  allocated,  on a preliminary  basis,  to EVM.  Except as to
Trustees  of the Funds and the  Portfolios  who are not  members of EVMs or BMRs
organization,  officers and Trustees receive  remuneration for their services to
each Fund out of such  investment  adviser fee.

With  respect  to Fund  shares  sold  prior  to  March  27,  1995,  Eaton  Vance
Distributors,  Inc.  (EVD),  a  subsidiary  of  EVM  and  the  Trusts  Principal
Underwriter,  receives a contingent  deferred sales charge (CDSC) on shareholder
redemptions made within 18 months of purchase, where the initial investment in a
Fund was $1 million or more.  EVD did not receive any CDSC during the six months
ended March 31, 1995. No CDSC will be levied on shareholder  redemptions of Fund
shares acquired on or after March 27, 1995.

Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT),  an affiliate of EVM,  serves as custodian
to  the  Funds  and  the  Portfolios.   Pursuant  to  the  respective  custodian
agreements,  IBT receives a fee reduced by credits which are determined based on
the average cash balances the Funds or the Portfolios maintain with IBT. Certain
of the  officers  and  Trustees of the Funds and  Portfolios  are  officers  and
directors/trustees  of the above  organizations  (Note 5).

- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(5) SERVICE PLAN

Each Fund has adopted a service plan designed to meet the  requirements  of Rule
12b-1 under the Investment  Company Act of 1940 and the service fee requirements
of the revised  sales  charge rule of The  National  Association  of  Securities
Dealers,  Inc.  The Service  Plans  provide  that each Fund may make service fee
payments  to the  Principal  Underwriter,  Eaton  Vance  Distributors,  Inc.,  a
subsidiary  of Eaton  Vance  Management,  Authorized  Firms or other  persons in
amounts  not  exceeding  0.25% of each  Funds  average  daily net assets for any
fiscal year.  The Trustees have initially  implemented  each Plan by authorizing
the Funds to make  quarterly  service fee payments to the Principal  Underwriter
and Authorized  Firms in amounts not exceeding 0.20% of each Funds average daily
net assets for any fiscal year which is attributable to shares of a Fund sold by
such  persons  and  remaining  outstanding  for at least one year.  Service  fee
payments are made for personal  services  and/or the  maintenance of shareholder
accounts.  No  provision  for service fee  payments  was made for the six months
ended March 31, 1995 for the Traditional Florida and Traditional New York Funds.

Certain of the officers and Trustees of the Funds are officers and  directors of
EVD.

(1) The above designated securities have been issued as inverse floater bonds.

(2) At March 31, 1995, the market value of securities segregated to cover margin
    requirements for open financial futures contracts amounted to $8,688,150.

The  Portfolio   invests   primarily  in  debt  securities   issued  by  Florida
municipalities.  The ability of the issuers of the debt securities to meet their
obligations may be affected by economic  developments in a specific  industry or
municipality.  In order  to  reduce  the  risk  associated  with  such  economic
developments,  at March 31, 1995,  35.7% of the  securities  in the portfolio of
investments are backed by bond insurance of various  financial  institutions and
financial guaranty  assurance  agencies.  The aggregate  percentage by financial
institution ranged from 10.5% to 14.7% of total investments.

    issued securities amounted to $18,258,630.

The  Portfolio   invests  primarily  in  debt  securities  issued  by  New  York
municipalities.  The ability of the issuers of the debt securities to meet their
obligations may be affected by economic  developments in a specific  industry or
municipality.  In order  to  reduce  the  risk  associated  with  such  economic
developments,  at March 31, 1995,  9.0% of the  securities  in the  portfolio of
investments are backed by bond insurance of various  financial  institutions and
financial guarenty  assurance  agencies.  The aggregate  percentage by financial
institution ranged from 0.7% to 4.0% of total investments.

                         Notes to Financial Statements
                                 (Unaudited)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(1) SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Florida Tax Free Portfolio  (Florida  Portfolio) and New York Tax Free Portfolio
(New York  Portfolio),  collectively  the Portfolios,  are registered  under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as non-diversified  open-end investment companies
which were organized as trusts under the laws of the State of New York on May 1,
1992. The  Declarations  of Trust permit the Trustees to issue  interests in the
Portfolios. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the
Portfolios.  The policies are in conformity with generally  accepted  accounting
principles.

A.  INVESTMENT  VALUATIONS - Municipal bonds are normally valued on the basis of
valuations  furnished by a pricing  service.  Taxable  obligations,  if any, for
which price  quotations  are readily  available are normally  valued at the mean
between the latest bid and asked prices.  Futures  contracts listed on commodity
exchanges  are  valued at closing  settlement  prices.  Short-term  obligations,
maturing in sixty days or less, are valued at amortized cost, which approximates
value. Investments for which valuations or market quotations are unavailable are
valued  at fair  value  using  methods  determined  in good  faith  by or at the
direction of the Trustees.

B. INCOME - Interest  income is  determined  on the basis of  interest  accrued,
adjusted  for  amortization  of premium or discount  when  required  for federal
income tax purposes.

C. INCOME TAXES - The  Portfolios  are treated as  partnerships  for Federal tax
purposes.  No provision is made by the  Portfolios for federal or state taxes on
any taxable income of the Portfolios because each investor in the Portfolios are
ultimately  responsible  for  the  payment  of  any  taxes.  Since  some  of the
Portfolios  investors  are  regulated  investment  companies  that invest all or
substantially  all of their assets in the  Portfolios,  the Portfolios  normally
must satisfy the applicable  source of income and  diversification  requirements
(under the Internal  Revenue  Code) in order for their  respective  investors to
satisfy  them.  The  Portfolios  will  allocate  at least  annually  among their
respective  investors  each investors  distributive  share of the Portfolios net
taxable (if any) and tax-exempt  investment  income, net realized capital gains,
and any other items of income, gain, loss, deductions or credit. Interest income
received  by  the  Portfolios  on  investments  in  municipal  bonds,  which  is
excludable  from gross income under the Internal  Revenue Code,  will retain its
status  as  income  exempt  from  federal  income  tax  when  allocated  to each
Portfolios  investors.  The portion of such interest,  if any, earned on private
activity  bonds issued after August 7, 1986,  may be considered a tax preference
item for investors.

D. DEFERRED  ORGANIZATION EXPENSES - Costs incurred by a Portfolio in connection
with its organization are being amortized on the  straight-line  basis over five
years beginning on the date each Portfolio commenced operations.

E.  FINANCIAL  FUTURES  CONTRACTS - Upon the  entering  of a  financial  futures
contract,  a Portfolio is required to deposit (initial margin) either in cash or
securities  an  amount  equal to a  certain  percentage  of the  purchase  price
indicated in the financial  futures  contract.  Subsequent  payments are made or
received by a Portfolio (margin  maintenance)  each day,  dependent on the daily
fluctuations in the value of the underlying security,  and are recorded for book
purposes as unrealized gains or losses by a Portfolio.  A Portfolios  investment
in financial  futures  contracts is designed only to hedge  against  anticipated
future changes in interest  rates.  Should interest rates move  unexpectedly,  a
Portfolio  may not achieve the  anticipated  benefits of the  financial  futures
contracts and may realize a loss.

F. WHEN-ISSUED AND DELAYED DELIVERY  TRANSACTIONS - The Portfolios may engage in
when-issued and delayed delivery transactions. The Portfolios record when-issued
securities on trade date and maintain  security  positions such that  sufficient
liquid  assets will be available to make payment for the  securities  purchased.
Securities  purchased on a when-issued  or delayed  delivery basis are marked to
market daily and begin earning interest on settlement date.

G. OTHER - Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.

H. INTERIM FINANCIAL  INFORMATION - The interim financial statements relating to
March 31,  1995,  and the  six-month  period then ended have not been audited by
independent  certified public accountants,  but in the opinion of the Portfolios
management  reflect  all  adjustments,   consisting  only  of  normal  recurring
adjustments necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(2) INVESTMENT ADVISER FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

The investment  adviser fee is earned by Boston Management and Research (BMR), a
wholly-owned  subsidiary of Eaton Vance  Management  (EVM), as compensation  for
management and investment advisory services rendered to each Portfolio.  The fee
is based upon a  percentage  of average  daily net assets plus a  percentage  of
gross income (i.e., income other than gains from the sale of securities).

For the six months ended March 31, 1995 each  portfolio  paid  advisory  fees as
follows:

PORTFOLIO                                 AMOUNT          EFFECTIVE RATE*
- ---------                                 ------          ---------------
Florida                                   $ 1,746,663               0.47%
New York                                  $ 1,512,146               0.48%

* Advisory fees paid as a percentage of average daily net assets (annualized).

Except as to  Trustees of the  Portfolios  who are not members of EVM's or BMR's
organization,  officers and Trustees receive  remuneration for their services to
the  Portfolios  out of such  investment  adviser  fee.  Investors  Bank & Trust
Company  (IBT),  an  affiliate  of EVM  and  BMR,  serves  as  custodian  of the
Portfolios.  Pursuant to the custodian agreement,  IBT receives a fee reduced by
credits  which are  determined  based on the average  daily cash  balances  each
Portfolio  maintains  with IBT.  Certain of the  officers  and  Trustees  of the
Portfolios  are  officers  and  directors/trustees  of the above  organizations.
Trustees of the Portfolios that are not affiliated  with the Investment  Adviser
may  elect  to  defer  receipt  of all or a  portion  of  their  annual  fees in
accordance with the terms of the Trustees  Deferred  Compensation  Plan. For the
six months ended March 31, 1995, no significant amounts have been deferred.

(5) LINE OF CREDIT

The Portfolios  participate  with other  Portfolios and Funds managed by BMR and
EVM in a $120 million  unsecured line of credit  agreement with a bank. The line
of credit  consists  of a $20  million  committed  facility  and a $100  million
discretionary  facility.  Borrowings  will be made by the  Portfolios  solely to
facilitate  the  handling  of  unusual  and/or  unanticipated   short-term  cash
requirements.  Interest  is  charged  to each  Portfolio  or Fund  based  on its
borrowings at an amount above either the banks  adjusted  certificate of deposit
rate,  a variable  adjusted  certificate  of deposit  rate,  or a federal  funds
effective  rate.  In addition,  a fee computed at an annual rate of 1/4 of 1% on
the $20 million  committed  facility and on the daily unused portion of the $100
million  discretionary  facility is allocated among the participating  funds and
portfolios at the end of each quarter.  At March 31, 1995, the Florida Portfolio
and New York  Portfolio had loan balances  outstanding  pursuant to this line of
credit of  $9,325,000  and  $5,437,000,  respectively.  For the six months ended
March 31, 1995, the average daily balance  outstanding  pursuant to this line of
credit, the average interest rate and the maximum  outstanding month end balance
during the period were as follows:

                          AVERAGE DAILY      AVERAGE INTEREST      MAXIMUM MONTH
PORTFOLIO                    BALANCE               RATE             END BALANCE
- ---------                 -------------      ----------------      -------------
Florida                    $2,655,000              7.15%             $20,318,000
New York                   $6,963,000              7.15%             $17,359,000

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(6) FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The Portfolios  regularly trade in financial  instruments with off-balance sheet
risk in the normal  course of their  investing  activities to assist in managing
exposure to various market risks.  These financial  instruments  include written
options and futures contracts and may involve, to a varying degree,  elements of
risk in excess of the amounts recognized for financial statement purposes.

The  notional  or  contractual  amounts  of  these  instruments   represent  the
investment a Portfolio has in particular  classes of financial  instruments  and
does not  necessarily  represent the amounts  potentially  subject to risk.  The
measurement of the risks  associated  with these  instruments is meaningful only
when all related and offsetting transactions are considered.

A summary of obligations under these financial  instruments at March 31, 1995 is
as follows:

              FUTURES
             CONTRACTS                                                  NET
            EXPIRATION                                              UNREALIZED
PORTFOLIO      DATE                  CONTRACTS          POSITION   DEPRECIATION
- ---------   ----------               ---------          --------   ------------
Florida        6/95        1,058  U.S. Treasury Bonds     short      $1,629,205
                                                                     ==========
New York       6/95          543  U.S. Treasury Bonds     short      $698,231
                                                                     ==========

At March 31, 1995 each Portfolio had sufficient cash and/or  securities to cover
margin requirements on open futures contracts.
