EATON VANCE MUNICIPALS FUNDS AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS
[PHOTO]
Thomas J. Fetter
President
1998 was another favorable year for the municipal bond market. Continued low
inflation and a declining interest rate environment helped provide positive
returns for the tax-exempt sector. U.S. economic growth was more robust than
expected in the fourth quarter. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) grew 6.1%, the
fastest quarterly pace in nearly 15 years, making the GDP growth rate 4.3% for
all of 1998. The economy's strong performance at year-end was attributed to
vigorous consumer spending and a shrinking trade deficit.
Municipal bonds again trailed the Treasury market, which rallied strongly as
foreign and domestic investors sought quality in an uncertain global economic
outlook. In addition, a heavy new issue calendar produced supply pressures for
the tax-exempt market. More than $300 billion in new municipal issues came to
market in 1998. The Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index(1) -- a widely
recognized, unmanaged index of municipal bonds -- posted a return of 2.6% for
the six-month period ended February 28, 1999.
MUNICIPAL BONDS ARE NOW AMONG
THE MOST UNDERVALUED ASSET CLASSES...
As the year ended, municipal bonds represented one of the most undervalued
asset classes in the financial markets. Historically, municipal bond yields
have averaged around 85% of Treasury bond yields. However, in the flight to
Treasuries that characterized the bond market in late 1998, that ratio rose
significantly. At February 28, 1999, representative 30-year tax-exempt bonds
were yielding 5.18%, or nearly 93% of 30-year Treasury yields. By any measure
of historical valuation, municipal bonds today represent an excellent
bargain, especially, considering their tax-exempt status.

TAXES REMAIN HIGH, WHILE TAX REFORM
IS AGAIN STALLED IN CONGRESS...
The election year promises of tax cuts appear to have reached a roadblock in
Washington. Meanwhile, it is estimated that the average American worked until
May 10 to pay his or her taxes in 1998, according to the Tax Foundation, a
non-partisan group that monitors federal, state and local fiscal issues. That
poses an enormous financial burden -- and an increasing challenge for those
who may be simultaneously paying for college tuition, caring for elderly
parents, or trying to plan for their own retirement.
Amid low inflation and growing federal budget surpluses, we believe that the
outlook for bonds remains favorable. At their recent levels, municipal bonds
are especially attractive. Moreover, municipal bonds remain an excellent
fixed-income alternative -- to diversify one's investment portfolio and to
help lower one's tax burden.
Sincerely,
/s/ Thomas J. Fetter

EATON VANCE ALABAMA MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE

William H. Ahern
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Alabama economy advanced in 1998, but still trailed the national
economy, as the state witnessed a further loss of manufacturing jobs.
Nonetheless, Alabama's February unemployment rate, reflecting a surge in
government and service sector jobs, declined to 3.9% from 4.3% a year
earlier.
- - Wages and salary income are expected to grow approximately 5.0% in the
coming year, according to the University of Alabama's ECONOMIC OUTLOOK.
Separately, the service and trade sectors should again account for the lion's
share of new jobs, producing 18,700 new positions.
- - The North Alabama economy, which has suffered recently from a loss of
manufacturing jobs, should benefit from the U.S. Army's transfer of Aviation
Command to the Redstone Arsenal. Boeing's new manufacturing plant in Decatur
is also expected to provide a major boost to the area.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 1.9% and 1.6%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.98 on February 28, 1999 from $10.04 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.245 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.98 from $11.04, and the
reinvestment of $0.233 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.98 per share for Class A and $10.98 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.95% and 4.21%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 3.97% and
3.37%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Portfolio pursued a relative-value approach, searching for attractive
undervalued sectors of the market. Management also emphasized insured* bonds,
which represented excellent quality.
- - Industrial development bonds (IDB) provided excellent sources of income
for the Portfolio. Industries represented in the Portfolio's IDB holdings
included transportation, paper and technology.
- - Hospitals remained the Portfolio's largest weighting at February 28. We
focused on institutions that are well-positioned to compete in an
increasingly competitive market. Higher-yielding opportunities were found in
the non-rated and lower investment grade segment of the market.

EATON VANCE ARKANSAS MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Timothy T. Browse
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Arkansas economy moderated somewhat in 1998 from the blistering 4%
growth rate achieved in the previous four years. Gross state product slowed
to a 3.3% growth rate, reflecting trade-related cutbacks and weakness in the
apparel industry. The state's jobless rate was 4.7% in February 1999, down
from 5.6% a year earlier.
- - Arkansas' Latin America-bound manufacturing exports remain vulnerable to a
further deterioration in Brazil. On a brighter note, continuing growth in the
state's technology-related activities should continue to provide a fairly
strong economic stimulus.
- - Arkansas residents enjoyed 5.0% personal income growth in 1998. That figure
is expected to rise further in 1999 with the help of a recovery in farm
incomes. Meanwhile, wages and salaries grew an average 6.1%, reflecting a
continuing tight labor market.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 1.9% and 1.4%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$10.01 on February 28, 1999 from $10.07 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.250 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.72 from $10.80, and the
reinvestment of $0.226 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$10.01 per share for Class A and $10.72 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 5.03% and 4.20%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.13% and
3.49%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Industrial development bonds were the Portfolio's largest weighting at
February 28. The Portfolio's investments helped finance economic initiatives
for a wide variety of companies, including Anheuser-Busch and paper and
forest products giant Georgia-Pacific Corp.
- - The Portfolio again included a significant portion of insured* bonds, which
offered quality, liquidity, and performance. We also continued to upgrade
call protection, thereby adding potential for capital appreciation.
- - The Portfolio maintained a large commitment in housing bonds during the
period. Several issues for the Arkansas Development Finance Authority aided
state residents in mortgage financing for single family housing. The bonds
featured very attractive coupons and provided some balance with the
Portfolio's lower-coupon holdings.

INVESTMENT UPDATE

Cynthia J. Clemson
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Georgia economy enjoyed a robust expansion in 1998, with gross state
product rising 5.8% for the year. The state led the southeast region and
again outpaced the nation as a whole. The state's jobless rate fell to 4.1%
in February from 4.4% a year earlier. Georgians continued to enjoy strong
personal income growth, up 6.4% in 1998.
- - Georgia's continuing economic boom has been fueled in part by strong
population growth. The state's population increased by 2.0% in 1998, more
than twice the nation's 0.9% rate. A large in-migration has helped boost
retail sales and small business development.
- - Consistent with trends at the national level, the service sector has
dominated job creation, with additional strength in the transportation and
telecommunications sectors, which are meeting the southeast region's
burgeoning transportation and communications needs.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 2.0% and 1.7%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.68 on February 28, 1999 from $9.73 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.243 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.33 from $10.38, and the
reinvestment of $0.224 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.68 per share for Class A and $10.33 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 5.02% and 4.28%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.17% and
3.64%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - In a quiet Georgia municipal market, the Portfolio was characterized by
relatively little trading activity. The Portfolio maintained a barbell
strategy, balancing high-coupon issues for yield with discount issues.
- - The Portfolio was again able to find good value in non-rated bonds in the
hospital and housing sectors. The Portfolio's non-rated holdings carried
unusually attractive coupons while providing financing for a variety of
industrial projects, hospitals, and housing developments.
- - Industrial development bonds (IDB) were the Portfolio's largest weighting
at February 28. The Portfolio's IDB issues included projects for several
well-known brand-name companies, including Hershey Foods, Union-Camp Corp.,
and American Airlines.

EATON VANCE KENTUCKY MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE

William H. Ahern
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Kentucky economy continued its strong expansion in 1998, adding
approximately 37,000 new jobs, with business services and health care leading
the way. Rising personal income and population growth provided a boost to the
retail industry. Reflecting that growth, the commonwealth's unemployment rate
declined to 4.2% in February 1998.
- - Kentucky was one of the few states in the nation to report growth in
manufacturing employment in 1998. The state enjoyed especially strong
momentum in the manufacture of transportation equipment, furniture, and wood
and plastic products.
- - Increasingly, Kentucky-based businesses are embracing the Internet.
According to a survey by the Kentucky Center for Business and Economic
Research, 70% of businesses use the Internet for E-mail and information
searches, while a smaller-but-growing number are using it to promote and
market products.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 1.9% and 1.5%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.85 on February 28, 1999 from $9.91 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.249 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.59 from $10.66, and the
reinvestment of $0.231 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.85 per share for Class A and $10.59 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 5.10% and 4.34%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.05% and
3.53%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Industrial development bonds (IDB) constituted the Portfolio's largest
commitment at February 28. IDB issues for companies such as KMart Corp. and
Ashland Oil have helped Kentucky communities finance public projects and
economic development while stimulating job growth.
- - Hospital bonds comprised a significant portion of the Portfolio. Management
focused on institutions with good operating fundamentals and a strong market
share in their service areas. Insured* bonds also figured prominently in the
Portfolio.
- - Management continued its efforts to upgrade the Portfolio's call
protection. To avoid the disruptions caused by untimely calls, the Portfolio
traded, when possible, bonds with less attractive call characteristics for
bonds with 10 years or more of call protection.

EATON VANCE LOUISIANA MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Robert B. MacIntosh
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Louisiana economy remains in fairly good condition. Job growth has
been driven primarily by the strong service sector and tourism-related
businesses. Meanwhile, the energy sectors continued to suffer from weak
global oil and gas pricing, which further discouraged exploration. The
state's jobless rate was 5.6% in February.
- - Louisiana remains the southeastern state most affected by the Asian
economic crisis. Exports to Asia of agricultural, chemical and paper products
declined in 1998. Conversely, exports to Canada and Mexico continued to rise,
in part, as a result of the North American Free Trade Agreement.
- - The outlook for Louisiana's transportation equipment industry has
brightened. A New Orleans shipyard has established a training center to deal
with a shortage of skilled workers. Louisiana shipbuilder Avondale Industries
has received a contract to upgrade U.S. Coast Guard cutters, aircraft and
control systems.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 1.5% and 1.3%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.89 on February 28, 1999 from $9.99 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.253 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.47 from $10.57, and the
reinvestment of $0.232 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.89 per share for Class A and $10.47 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.89% and 4.27%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.41% and
3.87%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Among the Portfolio's industrial development bond holdings was a Louisiana
Offshore Terminal Authority issue for Loop, Inc., a consortium of local
energy companies. The 1998 issue marked a return to the market for "Loops,"
which are considered attractive, A-rated Lousiana credits.
- - Senior living and life care bonds represented a significant portion of the
Portfolio at February 28. These non-rated and lower investment-grade bonds
offer unusually attractive yields for investors while financing living and
health care alternatives for an increasing number of the nation's senior
citizens.
- - Amid quiet trading and limited supply of Louisiana bonds, the Portfolio
focused its efforts on upgrading quality, trading, where possible, for bonds
with better performance characteristics, and maintaining good call protection.

EATON VANCE MARYLAND MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE

Timothy T. Browse
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Maryland economy continued its steady expansion in 1998. The state
enjoyed job growth of 2.6%, its best performance in nine years, ranking it
sixteenth in the nation. Maryland's major sources of new job growth were the
service sector, retail and wholesale trade, and business services.
- - The Maryland economy is diversifying beyond its high dependence on
government. In the transportation area, the Port of Baltimore and Washington
International Airport have each witnessed a sharp increase in freight and
passenger traffic, pointing to Maryland's growing importance as a regional
distribution center.
- - Having witnessed a sharp decline in unemployment to 3.9% in February from
4.9% a year ago, Maryland has enjoyed strong tax revenue growth. With a
growing surplus and healthy "rainy-day" reserves, the administration has
targeted a phased-in 10% reduction in personal income taxes.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 0.9% and 0.5%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.89 on February 28, 1999 from $10.05 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.245 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.80 from $10.98, and the
reinvestment of $0.231 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.89 per share for Class A and $10.80 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.83% and 4.19%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 3.98% and
3.44%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Housing bonds were the Portfolio's largest sector concentration at February
28 and offered attractive income opportunities. The Portfolio's housing
investments featured wide geographical diversity as well as diversification
among single-family and multi-family projects.
- - Hospital bonds represented a significant weighting within the Portfolio.
Management found especially good value among NON-RATED hospital issues, which
provided an income component to balance the Portfolio's lower-coupon,
insured* hospital holdings.
- - Escrowed bonds also played a fairly large role in the Portfolio. Backed by
U.S. Treasury securities, escrowed bonds are viewed as the very highest
quality bonds. While providing good income, they may trade close to their
call price, representing a relatively stable investment.

EATON VANCE MISSOURI MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Cynthia J. Clemson
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Missouri economy registered a 2.0% rise in gross state product in
1998, featuring a gain of 34,000 new jobs, primarily in financial services
and retail trade. That continues the momentum that has created 350,000 jobs
in the past 5 years. Accordingly, the state's unemployment rate declined
sharply, to 2.7% in February from 4.6% a year earlier.
- - More than 300 companies expanded within, or re-located to, Missouri in
1998. For example, the Ford Motor Co. announced plans to expand its Kansas
City assembly plant. The company will spend $600 million on a facility to
produce sport utility vehicles.
- - Missouri's strong economic pace resulted in a 5.7% increase in tax revenue
collections in 1998. The administration has targeted a $191 million tax cut
for the new fiscal year, which could provide a further stimulus to the
economy.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 1.9% and 1.5%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$10.22 on February 28, 1999 from $10.27 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.246 per share in tax-free income.2 For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $11.31 from $11.38, and the
reinvestment of $0.236 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$10.22 per share for Class A and $11.31 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.86% and 4.12%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.05% and
3.47%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Hospital bonds were the Portfolio's largest weighting at February 28, while
insured hospital bonds* also represented a significant investment. Ample
issuance provided a wide array of opportunities within the Missouri hospital
sector.
- - The Portfolio found good income opportunities among nursing home and senior
life care issues. These non-rated bonds provide financing for facilities that
are viewed as increasingly popular health care and living alternatives for
senior citizens.
- - Call protection remained an important consideration for the Portfolio.
Management continued its efforts to trade shorter-call bonds for those with
more favorable call characteristics.

EATON VANCE NORTH CAROLINA MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Robert B. MacIntosh
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The North Carolina economy advanced strongly in the past year, continuing
to benefit from an increasing diversification among its principal industries.
At 3.1%, the state's February unemployment rate remained well below that of
the nation and marked a significant improvement from the 3.7% rate of a year
earlier.
- - The state experienced 2.6% job growth in non-manufacturing sectors in 1998,
ranking it among the strongest states in the nation in that category.
Momentum in these sectors has provided needed economic balance, especially in
light of the increasingly volatile nature of the tobacco and textile
industries.
- - Real personal income growth was exceptionally strong in North Carolina,
reflecting a growing concentration of relatively high-wage financial services
and technology jobs. As a result, individual and corporate income tax
collections have been exceptionally strong in the 1998-1999 fiscal year.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 1.8% and 1.4%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.81 on February 28, 1999 from $9.88 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.242 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.55 from $10.63, and the
reinvestment of $0.224 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.81 per share for Class A and $10.55 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.96% and 4.22%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.20% and
3.60%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - While hospital bonds remained the Portfolio's largest sector weighting at
February 28, management has become increasingly selective within the sector.
The Portfolio has avoided "corporate-parent" bonds, which offer bondholders
no call on an institution's underlying assets in the event of default.
- - Among its industrial development bonds, the Portfolio increased its efforts
to diversify its industry exposure. The Portfolio reduced its exposure to
paper manufacturers, while providing a wider exposure to transportation,
energy and consumer goods companies.
- - Housing bonds provided an excellent source of income for the Portfolio. In
addition to local housing issues, the Portfolio maintained an attractive mix
of North Carolina Housing Finance Authority single-family and multi-family
housing bonds.

EATON VANCE OREGON MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Thomas M. Metzold
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Oregon's economy moderated somewhat in 1998, achieving 2.2% job growth for
the year. However, employment gathered some momentum in the fourth quarter,
increasing 4.7% due to renewed strength in the construction,
manufacturing, trade and services sectors.
- - The economic woes in Asia contributed to a difficult climate for exports in
the technology and forest product sectors. Sawmills and paper mills in Eastern
Oregon experienced month-long shutdowns, while technology firms have reported
layoffs and permanent job cuts to reduce costs. As a result, the state's
jobless rate rose to 5.8% in February from 5.4% a year ago.
- - Despite the weaker pace of job creation, the financial situation of most
workers showed some improvement in 1998. Hourly wages for employees in the
manufacturing sector grew by 5.0%, while total personal income for state
residents increased 4.7%.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 2.3% and 1.9%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.85 on February 28, 1999 from $9.87 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.242 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.78 from $10.80, and the
reinvestment of $0.227 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.85 per share for Class A and $10.78 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.95% and 4.19%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.01% and
3.44%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Housing bonds constituted the Portfolio's largest sector weighting at
February 28. While reduced somewhat from the levels of a year ago, the
Portfolio maintained interesting opportunities among state, city, and county
issuers for single-family and multi-family projects alike.
- - The Portfolio found some excellent income opportunities among non-rated
bonds. Holdings included an industrial development bond for Crown Zellerbach
Corp., a cogeneration issue for Wauna Cogeneration, and a Hood River County
housing bond for the Down Manor elderly housing project.
- - In a fairly quiet municipal market, management made relatively few changes
to the Portfolio. Adjustments to the Portfolio focused on seeking undervalued
situations and continuing efforts to upgrade call protection.

EATON VANCE SOUTH CAROLINA MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Thomas J. Fetter
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - South Carolina continues to participate fully in the economic growth of the
region's economy. Having reduced its dependence on agriculture and textiles,
the state has enjoyed significant expansions within services, trade and
tourism. The rate of South Carolinians' personal income growth has exceeded
the national rate.
- - The tourism and retirement industries helped to fuel strong employment
growth in the service sector. Myrtle Beach, Charleston and Hilton Head have
long been attractive vacation spots. Increasingly, South Carolina's quality
of life is drawing attention as a retirement destination for emigres from the
nation's colder, northern climes.
- - South Carolina has become a major beneficiary of foreign investment in
recent years. As an example, BMW announced plans to build its new sports
utility vehicle model at its Greer, S.C. plant. It is expected that the move
will add 1,000 new jobs at the facility.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 1.5% and 1.1%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$10.00 on February 28, 1999 from $10.09 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.244 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.61 from $10.72, and the
reinvestment of $0.226 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$10.00 per share for Class A and $10.61 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.93% and 4.21%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 3.97% and
3.43%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Industrial development bonds were the Portfolio's largest weighting. The
Portfolio had investments in projects for a wide array of companies,
including chemicals and textile manufacturer Hoechst Celanese Corp., paper
producer Union Camp Corp., and electric utility Carolina Power & Light Co.
- - Housing bonds provided attractive yields for the Portfolio. South Carolina
Housing Finance and Development Authority bonds represented a wide range of
multi-family and single-family projects. The bonds are AA rated credits,
increasingly rare in a market dominated by insured bonds.
- - Within the hospital sector, the Portfolio emphasized insured* bonds.
Reflecting national trends, South Carolina's hospitals are feeling the impact
of changing Medicare reimbursement policies and lower managed care payments.

EATON VANCE TENNESSEE MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Cynthia J. Clemson
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - The Tennessee economy witnessed slower job growth in 1998 than in 1997.
Service sector employment rose modestly, but job creation in the auto sector
slowed somewhat. A buyers' shift to larger vehicles has hurt production of
smaller cars, like those made at Smyrna's Nissan and Saturn plants.
- - Tennessee's export markets were mixed in 1998. Canada, the state's largest
export market, provided continuing strong demand for textiles and advanced
industrial products. However, with Japan mired in recession, Asia-bound
exports of industrial machinery, computers and chemicals declined
significantly.
- - Tennessee's farm sector was hard-hit by drought in 1998. Poor grazing
conditions forced many livestock to market prematurely, which resulted in
sharply lower prices for farmers. The state's soybean crop, its second
largest farm commodity, with annual receipts of $275 million, was also
adversely affected by the drought.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 2.1% and 1.7%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.94 on February 28, 1999 from $9.98 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.246 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.80 from $10.84, and the
reinvestment of $0.225 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.94 per share for Class A and $10.80 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.86% and 4.10%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 4.07% and
3.43%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Industrial development bonds (IDB) were the Portfolio's largest sector
weighting at February 28. The Portfolio's IDB holdings included bonds that
financed projects for Saturn Corp., Federal Express Corp., and Kimberly-Clark.
- - Management continued to look for value in the lower investment-grade
segment of the market. These bonds, which included the IDB portion of the
Portfolio, provided attractive income opportunities for the Portfolio.
- - The municipal market was marked by continued refunding of higher-coupon
bonds in the past year, again making call protection an important investment
consideration. When possible, the Portfolio sought to trade refunded bonds
for bonds with longer call dates.

EATON VANCE VIRGINIA MUNICIPALS FUND AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
INVESTMENT UPDATE
[PHOTO]
Timothy T. Browse
Portfolio Manager
The Economy
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - Virginia's economy remained on an even keel in 1998. The commonwealth did
not suffer the second quarter slowdown that plagued much of the nation, and,
as a result, the growth trend continued unabated throughout the year.
Virginia's 2.6% February jobless rate was among the lowest in the country.
- - Technology remained a strong source of non-farm employment. In the Northern
Virginia area, computer, software and business services-related jobs rose by
7% in 1998, and were responsible for roughly one-third of the commonwealth's
total job growth. Virginia's mining sector remained weak, as coal production
fell around 9% during the year.
- - Virginia's workforce enjoyed generally higher incomes in the past year.
Hourly wages rose around 4.0% for the year, while in September the average
hourly wage topped $13.00 for the first time.
The Fund
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - During the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Fund's Class A and Class
B shares had total returns of 2.0% and 1.6%, respectively.(1) For Class A,
this return resulted from a decline in net asset value (NAV) per share to
$9.82 on February 28, 1999 from $9.87 on August 31, 1998, and the
reinvestment of $0.244 per share in tax-free income.(2) For Class B, this
return resulted from a decline in NAV to $10.87 from $10.93, and the
reinvestment of $0.232 per share in tax-free income.(2)
- - Based on the Fund's most recent dividends and NAVs on February 28, 1999 of
$9.82 per share for Class A and $10.87 for Class B, the distribution rates
were 4.99% and 4.24%, respectively.(3)
- - The SEC 30-day yields for Class A and B shares at February 28 were 3.93% and
3.38%, respectively.(4)
Management Update
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- - In a fairly quiet market environment, management pursued a relative-value
approach during the year, trading, when possible, into relatively undervalued
municipal sectors. In a climate that featured continued refundings,
management continued its efforts to upgrade the Portfolio's call protection.
- - Escrowed bonds played a significant role in the Portfolio. Because the
bonds are pre-refunded to their approaching call dates, they provided
relatively stable performance, as well as an excellent income stream.
- - The Portfolio's education bonds financed renovations and infrastructure
projects for some of the commonwealth's universities. Among the schools
benefiting from financing were Hampton College, Randolph-Macon Woman's
College, Bridgewater College, and Medical College of Hampton Roads.

(1) For the eleven month period ended August 31, 1994.
(2) Total 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
reinvested at the net asset value on the reinvestment date. Total return is
not computed on an annualized basis.
(3) Includes the Fund's share of its corresponding Portfolio's allocated
expenses for the period the Fund was investing in the Portfolio.
(4) The expense ratios for the year ended August 31, 1996 and periods
thereafter have been adjusted to reflect a change in reporting
requirements. The new reporting guidelines require the Fund, as well as its
corresponding Portfolio, to increase its expense ratio by the effect of any
expense offset arrangements with its service provider. The expense ratios
for each of the prior periods have not been adjusted to reflect this
change.
(5) Annualized.
(6) Portfolio Turnover represents the rate of portfolio activity for the period
while the Fund was making investments directly in securities. The portfolio
turnover rate for the period since the Fund transferred all of its
investable assets to the Portfolio is shown in the Portfolio's financial
statements which are included elsewhere in this report.

(2) For the eleven month period ended August 31, 1994.
(3) Total 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
reinvested at the net asset value on the reinvestment date. Total return is
not computed on an annualized basis.
(4) Includes the Fund's share of its corresponding Portfolio's allocated
expenses for the period the Fund was investing in the Portfolio.
(5) The expense ratios for the year ended August 31, 1996 and periods
thereafter have been adjusted to reflect a change in reporting
requirements. The new reporting guidelines require the Fund, as well as its
corresponding Portfolio, to increase its expense ratio by the effect of any
expense offset arrangements with its service provider. The expense ratios
for each of the prior periods have not been adjusted to reflect this
change.
(6) Annualized.
(7) Portfolio Turnover represents the rate of portfolio activity for the period
while the Fund was making investments directly in securities. The portfolio
turnover rate for the period since the Fund transferred all of its
investable assets to the Portfolio is shown in the Portfolio's financial
statements which are included elsewhere in this report.

EATON VANCE MUNICIPALS FUNDS AS OF FEBRUARY 28, 1999
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1 Significant Accounting Policies
- -------------------------------------------
Eaton Vance Municipals Trust (the Trust) is an entity of the type commonly
known as a Massachusetts business trust and is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management
investment company. The Trust presently consists of twenty-nine Funds, twelve
of which, each non-diversified, are included in these financial statements.
They include Eaton Vance Alabama Municipals Fund ("Alabama Fund"), Eaton
Vance Arkansas Municipals Fund ("Arkansas Fund"), Eaton Vance Georgia
Municipals Fund ("Georgia Fund"), Eaton Vance Kentucky Municipals Fund
("Kentucky Fund"), Eaton Vance Louisiana Municipals Fund ("Louisiana Fund"),
Eaton Vance Maryland Municipals Fund ("Maryland Fund"), Eaton Vance Missouri
Municipals Fund ("Missouri Fund"), Eaton Vance North Carolina Municipals Fund
("North Carolina Fund"), Eaton Vance Oregon Municipals Fund ("Oregon Fund"),
Eaton Vance South Carolina Municipals Fund ("South Carolina Fund"), Eaton
Vance Tennessee Municipals Fund ("Tennessee Fund") and Eaton Vance Virginia
Municipals Fund ("Virginia Fund"). The Funds offer two classes of shares.
Class A shares are sold subject to a sales charge imposed at the time of
purchase. Class B shares are sold at net asset value and are subject to a
declining contingent deferred sales charge (see Note 6). All classes of
shares have equal rights to assets and voting privileges. Realized and
unrealized gains and losses are allocated daily to each class of shares based
on the relative net assets of each class to the total net assets of the Fund.
Net investment income, other than class specific expenses, is allocated daily
to each class of shares based upon the ratio of the value of each class' paid
shares to the total value of all paid shares. Each class of shares differs in
its distribution plan and certain other class specific expenses. 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 Alabama
Fund invests its assets in the Alabama Municipals Portfolio, the Arkansas
Fund invests its assets in the Arkansas Municipals Portfolio, the Georgia
Fund invests its assets in the Georgia Municipals Portfolio, the Kentucky
Fund invests its assets in the Kentucky Municipals Portfolio, the Louisiana
Fund invests its assets in the Louisiana Municipals Portfolio, the Maryland
Fund invests its assets in the Maryland Municipals Portfolio, the Missouri
Fund invests its assets in the Missouri Municipals Portfolio, the North
Carolina Fund invests its assets in the North Carolina Municipals Portfolio,
the Oregon Fund invests its assets in the Oregon Municipals Portfolio, the
South Carolina Fund invests its assets in the South Carolina Municipals
Portfolio, the Tennessee Fund invests its assets in the Tennessee Municipals
Portfolio and the Virginia Fund invests its assets in the Virginia Municipals
Portfolio. The value of each Fund's investment in its corresponding Portfolio
reflects the Fund's proportionate interest in the net assets of that
Portfolio (approximately 100% at February 28, 1999 for each Fund). 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 Fund's 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 Valuation -- Valuation of securities by the Portfolios is
discussed in Note 1A of the Portfolios' Notes to Financial Statements which
are included elsewhere in this report.
B Income -- Each Fund's net investment income consists of the Fund's 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 Fund's 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 August 31, 1998,
the Funds, for federal income tax purposes, had capital loss carryovers which
will reduce taxable income arising from future net realized gain 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 Funds of any liability for
federal income or excise tax. A portion of such capital loss carryovers were
acquired through the Fund Reorganization (see Note 8) and may be subject to
certain limitations. The amounts and expiration dates of the capital loss
carryovers are as follows:

</TABLE>
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 tax-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 each Fund in connection
with its organization, including registration costs, are being amortized on
the straight-line basis over five years.
E Expense Reduction -- Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) 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 daily cash balances the Funds or the Portfolios maintain with
IBT. All significant credit balances used to reduce each Fund's custodian
fees are reported as a reduction of expenses in the Statements of Operations.
F Use of Estimates -- 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
G Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
H Interim Financial Statements -- The interim financial statements relating to
February 28, 1999, and for the six months then ended have not been audited by
independent certified public accountants, but in the opinion of the Fund's
management, reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring
adjustments, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial statements.
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 are
paid in the form of additional shares or, at the election of the shareholder,
in cash. Distributions of allocated realized capital gains, if any, are made
at least annually. Shareholders may reinvest income and capital gain
distributions in additional shares of the Fund at the net asset value as of
the ex-dividend date.
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
statement 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.

4 Transactions with Affiliates
- -------------------------------------------
Eaton Vance Management (EVM) serves as the Administrator of each Fund, but
receives no compensation. Each of 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. Certain of the
officers and Trustees of the Funds and Portfolios are officers and
directors/trustees of the above organizations. Except for Trustees of the
Funds and Portfolios who are not members of EVM's or BMR's organization,
officers and Trustees receive remuneration for their services to each Fund
out of the investment adviser fee earned by BMR. Eaton Vance Distributors,
Inc. (EVD), a subsidiary of EVM and the Funds' principal underwriter,
received $418, $732, $1,188, $216, $392, $714, $1,375, $1,743, $709, $726,
$1,188 and $1,306 from the Alabama Fund, Arkansas Fund, Georgia Fund,
Kentucky Fund, Louisiana Fund, Maryland Fund, Missouri Fund, North Carolina
Fund, Oregon Fund, South Carolina Fund, Tennessee Fund and Virginia Fund,
respectively, as its portion of the sales charge on sales of Class A shares
for the six months ended February 28, 1999.
5 Distribution and Service Plans
- -------------------------------------------
Each Fund has adopted a distribution plan (Class B Plans) pursuant to Rule
12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and a service plan (Class A
Plans, the Plans). The Plans require the Class B shares to pay the principal
underwriter, Eaton Vance Distributors, Inc. (EVD), amounts equal to 1/365 of
0.75% of each Fund's Class B daily net assets, for providing ongoing
distribution services and facilities to the respective Fund. A Fund's Class B
shares will automatically discontinue payments to EVD during any period in
which there are no outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges, which are
equivalent to the sum of (i) 5% of the aggregate amount received by the Fund
for Class B shares sold plus (ii) interest calculated by applying the rate of
1% over the prevailing prime rate to the outstanding balance of Uncovered
Distribution Charges of EVD reduced by the aggregate amount of contingent
deferred sales charges (Note 6) and amounts theretofore paid to EVD. The
amount payable to EVD with respect to each day is accrued on such day as a
liability of each Fund's Class B shares and, accordingly, reduces each Fund's
Class B net assets. For the six months ended February 28, 1999, the Class B
shares of the Alabama Fund, Arkansas Fund, Georgia Fund, Kentucky Fund,
Louisiana Fund, Maryland Fund, Missouri Fund, North Carolina Fund, Oregon
Fund, South Carolina Fund, Tennessee Fund and Virginia Fund paid $323,920,
$198,972, $303,320, $407,639, $117,062, $382,754, $263,937, $508,400,
$374,079, $182,587, $185,859 and $549,566, respectively, to EVD, representing
0.75% (annualized) of each Fund's Class B average daily net assets. At
February 28, 1999, the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD
calculated under the Class B Plans for Alabama Fund, Arkansas Fund, Georgia
Fund, Kentucky Fund, Louisiana Fund, Maryland Fund, Missouri Fund, North
Carolina Fund, Oregon Fund, South Carolina Fund, Tennessee Fund and Virginia
Fund were approximately $2,337,000, $1,693,000, $2,394,000, $2,819,000,
$1,054,000, $2,896,000, $1,771,000, $3,651,000, $2,766,000, $1,564,000,
$1,448,000 and $3,760,000, respectively.
In addition, the Plans authorize the Funds to make payments of service fees
to EVD, Authorized Firms and other persons in amounts not exceeding 0.25% of
each Fund's average daily net assets for any fiscal year. The Trustees have
initially implemented the Plans by authorizing the Funds to make quarterly
service fee payments to EVD and Authorized Firms in amounts not exceeding
0.20% per annum of each Fund's average daily net assets attributable to both
Class A and Class B shares based on the value of Fund shares sold by such
persons and remaining outstanding for at least one year. For the six months
ended February 28, 1999, Alabama Fund, Arkansas Fund, Georgia Fund, Kentucky
Fund, Louisiana Fund, Maryland Fund, Missouri Fund, North Carolina Fund,
Oregon Fund, South Carolina Fund, Tennessee Fund and Virginia Fund paid or
accrued service fees to or payable to EVD in the amount of $5,113, $1,307,
$2,192, $1,323, $3,796, $1,744, $2,705, $9,261, $876, $1,666, $2,092 and
$2,314, respectively, for Class A shares, and $82,742, $51,695, $80,908,
$97,821, $26,533, $96,963, $65,090, $135,556, $89,772, $43,819, $44,571 and
$146,543, respectively, for Class B shares. Service fee payments are made for
personal services and/or maintenance of shareholder accounts. Service fees
paid to EVD and Authorized Firms are separate and distinct from
44

the sales commissions and distribution fees payable by each Fund to EVD, and
as such are not subject to automatic discontinuance when there are no
outstanding Uncovered Distribution Charges of EVD. Certain officers and
Trustees of the Funds are officers or directors of EVD.
6 Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
- -------------------------------------------
A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) is imposed on any redemption of
Class B shares made within six years of purchase. Generally, the CDSC is
based upon the lower of the net asset value at date of redemption or date of
purchase. No charge is levied on Class B shares acquired by reinvestment of
dividends or capital gains distributions. The CDSC is imposed at declining
rates that begin at 5% in the case of redemptions in the first and second
year after purchase, declining one percentage point each subsequent year. No
CDSC is levied on Class B shares which have been sold to EVD or its
affiliates or to their respective employees or clients. CDSC charges are paid
to EVD to reduce the amount of Uncovered Distribution Charges calculated
under each Fund's Class B Plan (see Note 5). CDSC charges received when no
Uncovered Distribution Charges exist will be credited to the Fund. EVD
received approximately $70,000, $34,000, $73,000, $50,000, $25,000, $51,000,
$37,000, $75,000, $69,000, $34,000, $27,000 and $97,000 of CDSC paid by Class
B shareholders of Alabama Fund, Arkansas Fund, Georgia Fund, Kentucky Fund,
Louisiana Fund, Maryland Fund, Missouri Fund, North Carolina Fund, Oregon
Fund, South Carolina Fund, Tennessee Fund and Virginia Fund, respectively,
for the six months ended February 28, 1999.

item for purposes of the Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.
The Portfolio invests primarily in debt securities issued by Virginia
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 February 28, 1999, 25.7% 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 4.9% to 12.1% of total investments.
(1) Security has been issued as an inverse floater bond.
(2) Security (or a portion thereof) has been segregated to cover when-issued
securities.
(3) When-issued security.
(4) Security exempt from registration under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of
1933. These securities may be resold in transactions exempt from
registration, normally to qualified institutional buyers. At February 28,
1999, the value of these securities amounted to $1,093,250 or 0.7% of the
Portfolio's net assets.

North Carolina Municipals Portfolio (North Carolina Portfolio), Oregon
Municipals Portfolio (Oregon Portfolio), South Carolina Municipals Portfolio
(South Carolina Portfolio), Tennessee Municipals Portfolio (Tennessee
Portfolio) and Virginia Municipals Portfolio (Virginia Portfolio),
collectively the Portfolios, are registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended, as non-diversified open-end management 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. Financial futures contracts and
options on financial futures contracts listed on commodity exchanges are
valued at closing settlement prices. Over-the-counter options on financial
futures contracts are normally valued at the mean between the latest bid and
asked 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 Federal 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 is 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 investor's 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, deduction
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 Portfolio's 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.
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
Portfolio's investment in financial futures contracts is designed for both
hedging against anticipated future changes in interest rates and investment
purposes. Should interest rates move unexpectedly, a Portfolio may not
achieve the anticipated benefits of the financial futures contracts and may
realize a loss.
F Options on Financial Futures Contracts -- Upon purchase of a put option on a
financial futures contract by a Portfolio, the premium paid is recorded as an
investment, the value of which is marked-to-market daily. When a purchased
option expires, a Portfolio will realize a loss in the amount of the cost of
the option. When a Portfolio enters into a closing sale transaction, the
Portfolio will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales proceeds
from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the
option. When a Portfolio exercises a put option, settlement is made in cash.
The risk associated with purchasing options is limited to the premium
originally paid.

G 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 payments 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.
H Other -- Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
I Expense Reduction -- Investors Bank & Trust Company (IBT) serves as custodian
of the Portfolios. Pursuant to the custodian agreements, IBT receives a fee
reduced by credits which are determined based on the average daily cash
balances each Portfolio maintains with IBT. All significant credit balances
used to reduce each Portfolio's custodian fees are reported as a reduction of
expenses in the Statement of Operations.
J Use of Estimates -- The preparation of the 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 at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts
of revenue and expense during the reporting period. Actual results could
differ from those estimates.
K Interim Financial Statements -- The interim financial statements relating to
February 28, 1999 and for the six months then ended have not been audited by
independent certified public accountants, but in the opinion of the
Portfolio's 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 February 28, 1999, the Portfolios paid
advisory fees as follows:
<TABLE>

Tennessee 78,076 0.29%
Virginia 304,704 0.41%
</TABLE>
* 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.
Trustees of the Portfolios that are not affiliated with the Investment
Adviser may elect to defer receipt of all or a percentage of their annual
fees in accordance with the terms of the Trustees Deferred Compensation Plan.
For the six months ended February 28, 1999, no significant amounts have been
deferred.
Certain of the officers and Trustees of the Portfolios are officers and
directors/trustees of the above organizations.

5 Line of Credit
- -------------------------------------------
The Portfolios participate with other portfolios and funds managed by BMR and
EVM and its affiliates in a $130 million unsecured line of credit agreement
with a group of banks. Borrowings will be made by the portfolios or funds
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 Eurodollar rate or Federal Funds
effective rate. In addition, a fee computed at an annual rate of 0.10% on the
daily unused portion of the facility is allocated among the participating
portfolios and funds at the end of each quarter. At February 28, 1999, the
Alabama Portfolio and Arkansas Portfolio had balances outstanding pursuant to
this line of credit of $25,000 and $511,000, respectively. The Portfolios did
not have any significant borrowings or allocated fees during the six months
ended February 28, 1999.

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 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.
At February 28, 1999, there were no outstanding obligations under these
financial instruments.
