SEMIANNUAL REPORT
October 15, 1997
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to present the semiannual report for PaineWebber Money Market
Fund for the six months ended August 31, 1997.
GENERAL MARKET OVERVIEW
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Federal Reserve Board's decision to raise short-term interest rates to
5.5% in March resulted in virtually every bond sector posting a negative total
return during the first three months of 1997. The high yield sector was the
exception, as gains in January and February more than offset the softness
following the Fed move. Then, on April 28, 1997, the report of the Employment
Cost Index--considered the most comprehensive wage-inflation indicator, and
critical to Fed policy--indicated a very positive inflation picture. This
information, plus optimism over an agreed upon framework by President Clinton
and the Republicans to balance the budget by 2002, turned market sentiment
bullish. Bonds rallied strongly, sending the yield on the long bond from 7.1% on
March 31, 1997 to 6.8% on June 30, 1997. July continued to provide good news for
fixed income investors as additional favorable inflation data prompted the yield
on the long bond to drop even further. By August's end, all fixed income sectors
contributed positively to overall debt market performance; again, however, the
high yield sector outperformed others as investors' willingness to accept higher
credit risk produced higher returns.
PORTFOLIO REVIEW
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PERFORMANCE
The Fund's current yields for Class A, B and C shares for the seven-day
period ended August 31, 1997 were 4.25%, 3.76% and 3.72%, respectively.
PORTFOLIO HIGHLIGHTS--During the semiannual period, the Fund's weighted average
maturity was maintained at approximately 56 days, five to 10 days longer than
the IBC Financial Data average for similar money market funds. This was done in
response to economic data indicating low inflation with slight economic growth.
Additionally, we took advantage of the market's substantial volatility by
purchasing securities at higher yields when rates backed up (that is, when rates
rose).

<PAGE>
OUTLOOK
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Near-term, we plan to keep the Fund's average weighted maturity around its
present level. Going forward, every significant economic number released will be
closely scrutinized. Inflation is always a concern and, as such, will be
carefully monitored. Investment decisions for the Fund will continue to be
dominated by credit, quality and liquidity. Although we are interested in
maintaining higher yields, we will not do so by sacrificing the Fund's emphasis
on security, quality and liquidity.
Our ultimate objective in managing your investments is to help you successfully
meet your financial goals. We thank you for your continued support and welcome
any comments or questions you may have.
Sincerely,
/s/Margo N. Alexander /s/Dennis L. McCauley

ORGANIZATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
PaineWebber Master Series, Inc. ("Master Series") was incorporated in
Maryland on October 29, 1985 and is registered with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end,
diversified series investment company which currently offers two series of
shares: PaineWebber Money Market Fund ("Fund") and PaineWebber Balanced Fund.
The financial statements for PaineWebber Balanced Fund are not included herein.
The Fund offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Each class represents
interests in the same assets of the Fund and the classes are identical except
for differences in their sales charge structure, ongoing service and
distribution charges and certain transfer agency expenses. In addition, Class B
shares automatically convert to Class A shares approximately six years after
initial issuance. All classes of shares have equal voting privileges, except
that each class has exclusive voting rights with respect to its service and/or
distribution plan. All classes of shares may be obtained only through an
exchange of shares of the corresponding class of other PaineWebber mutual funds.
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles requires Fund management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of
significant accounting policies:
VALUATION AND ACCOUNTING FOR INVESTMENTS--Investments are valued at amortized
cost which approximates market value. Investment transactions are recorded on
the trade date. Realized gains and losses from investment transactions are
calculated using the identified cost method. Interest income is recorded on an
accrual basis. Premiums are amortized and discounts are accreted as adjustments
to interest income and the identified cost of investments.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS--The Fund's custodian takes possession of the
collateral pledged for investments in repurchase agreements. The underlying
collateral is valued daily on a mark-to-market basis to ensure that the value,
including accrued interest, is at least equal to the repurchase price. In the
event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Fund has the right to
liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy
by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the
collateral may be subject to legal proceedings. The Fund may participate in
joint repurchase agreement transactions with other funds managed by Mitchell
Hutchins Asset Management Inc. ("Mitchell Hutchins"), a wholly owned asset
management subsidiary of PaineWebber and investment adviser and administrator of
the Fund.
NET INVESTMENT INCOME AND INVESTMENT TRANSACTIONS--Income and expenses
(excluding class-specific expenses) are allocated proportionately to each class
of shares based upon the relative net asset value of dividend-eligible shares of
each class at the beginning of the day (after adjusting for current capital
share activity of the respective classes). Realized gains and losses are
allocated proportionately to each class of shares based upon the relative value
of shares outstanding at the beginning of the day (after adjusting for current
capital share activity of the respective classes). Class-specific expenses are
charged directly to the applicable class of shares.
DIVIDENDS AND DISTRIBUTIONS--Dividends and distributions to shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends and distributions are determined in
accordance with federal income tax regulations which may differ from generally
accepted accounting principles. These "book/tax" differences are either
considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are
permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts
based on their federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require
reclassification.

CONCENTRATION OF RISK
The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Fund to meet
their obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those
particular to a specific industry or region.
INVESTMENT ADVISER AND ADMINISTRATOR
The Board of Directors of Master Series has approved an Investment Advisory
and Administration Contract ("Advisory Contract") with Mitchell Hutchins, under
which Mitchell Hutchins serves as investment adviser and administrator of the
Fund. In accordance with the Advisory Contract, the Fund pays Mitchell Hutchins
an investment advisory and administration fee, which is accrued daily and paid
monthly, at the annual rate of 0.50% of the Fund's average daily net assets. At
August 31, 1997, the Fund owed Mitchell Hutchins $16,702 for investment advisory
and administration fees.
DISTRIBUTION PLANS
Mitchell Hutchins is the distributor of the Fund's shares and has appointed
PaineWebber as the exclusive dealer for the sale of those shares. Under separate
plans of service and/or distribution pertaining to the Class A, Class B and
Class C shares, the Fund pays Mitchell Hutchins monthly service fees at the
annual rate of 0.25% of the average daily net assets of each class of shares and
monthly distribution fees at an annual rate of 0.50% of the average daily net
assets of Class B and Class C shares. At August 31, 1997 the Fund owed Mitchell
Hutchins $19,166 in service and distribution fees.
Mitchell Hutchins also receives the proceeds of the contingent deferred sales
charges paid upon certain redemptions of Class A, Class B and Class C shares.
Mitchell Hutchins has informed the Fund that for the six months ended August 31,
1997, it earned $41,177 in sales charges.
TRANSFER AGENCY SERVICE FEES
Prior to August 1, 1997, the Fund paid PaineWebber an annual fee of $4.00 per
active PaineWebber shareholder account, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses, for
certain services not provided by the Fund's transfer agent. For these services
for the period ended July 31, 1997, PaineWebber earned $5,548 in service fees.
Subsequent to August 1, 1997, PaineWebber provides transfer agency related
services to the Fund pursuant to a delegation of authority from PFPC, Inc., the
Fund's transfer agent, and was compensated $1,796 for the month of August for
these services by PFPC, Inc., not the Fund.
OTHER LIABILITIES
At August 31, 1997, the amounts payable for Fund shares repurchased and
dividends payable aggregated $362,760 and $100,898, respectively.
CAPITAL STOCK
There are 10 billion shares of $0.001 par value common stock authorized for
Master Series, of which 1 billion were allocated to the Fund. Transactions in
shares of common stock, at $1.00 per share, were as follows:

FEDERAL TAX STATUS
The Fund intends to distribute substantially all of its taxable income and to
comply with the other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to
regulated investment companies. Accordingly, no provision for federal income
taxes is required. In addition, by distributing during each calendar year
substantially all of its net investment income, capital gains and certain other
amounts, if any, the Fund intends not to be subject to federal excise tax.
At February 28, 1997, the Fund had capital loss carryforwards of $11,016
available as a reduction, to the extent provided in the regulations, of future
net realized gains, which will expire between February 28, 1999 and February 28,
2003. To the extent that such losses are used to offset future capital gains, it
is probable that the gains so offset will not be distributed.
