FUND HIGHLIGHTS

FINANCIAL HORIZONS GROWTH FUND

For the six month period ended April 30, 1995, the Financial Horizons Growth
Fund had a return of  8.5%. 

The strategy for the Financial Horizons Growth Fund is to make  purchases in
companies with clearly defined and clearly visible business opportunities,
at valuation levels that allow for future improvement. Sales are being made
when fundamentals become less clear than is satisfactory, or when valuations
become uncomfortably high.

The Growth Fund has a small asset base, which presents both problems and
opportunities.  On the negative side, expenses run high as a percentage of
assets, and tend to eat up dividend and interest income, limiting payouts from
those sources.  On the plus side, the Fund is able to buy small-cap stocks, in
significant (for the Fund) asset weightings, yet still be very liquid due to
the small absolute number of shares held.  This gives the Fund a wider range of
investment opportunities than a larger fund would have, and allows risk to be
managed not only by fundamental analysis and valuation, but also by the
relative ease of initiating and liquidating positions.  While not being run
exclusively, or even primarily, as a small-cap fund, Financial Horizons Growth
has been able to take advantage of a number of small-cap opportunities.  This
has given the Fund favorable comparative results, despite the drag of expenses.
For example, according to Morningstar, for the one year period ending 02/28/95,
the Fund ranked 40th out of a universe of 653 growth funds.

Performance over the last six months has been influenced by strength in the
technology sector.  Financial stocks have also recovered from earlier weakness,
and energy has been strong. Telecommunications has been a lackluster sector,
but one I continue to like long-term.  Cash has gone down from about 12 percent
to 6 percent, as a greater number of buying opportunities have surfaced.

John M. Schaffner, MBA, CFA
Portfolio Manager

FINANCIAL HORIZONS MUNICIPAL BOND FUND

The municipal market has performed well over the past six months. From November
1994 to April 1995, the Bond Buyer 11 Index has ranged from 6.72% to 5.86%. It
ended the six month period at 5.96%.  This Index is a good barometer for the
municipal market. It includes high quality Aa general market municipal bonds in
the 20 year maturity range.  It also fits closely with the types of bonds used
in your Fund. 

We continue to stress higher credit quality, shorter average maturities, and a
higher average coupon as we approach a more defensive posture.  Credit
quality is being kept very high as we do not feel that yield spreads have
warranted extra credit risk.  Capital losses are being booked where prudent.  

The average coupon has been increased from 5.87% to 6.23%. This should help
improve dividend payout.  Average maturity has been pulled back almost 1.7
years to improve asset stability.  We have pursued this program slowly to take
advantage of the rapidly improving market.  Average credit quality currently
stands slightly above "Aa". 

The municipal yield curve is extremely flat.  This has allowed us to pursue a
defensive strategy with minimal give-up in yield while preparing your Fund to
be ready to perform well over the next six months and beyond in varying market
scenarios.

FINANCIAL HORIZONS GOVERNMENT BOND FUND                     

In our Annual Report six months ago, we discussed the unusual fundamental value
available in the bond market due to what had been twelve months of falling bond
prices.  During the past six months, bond market investors have been rewarded
for their patience after what had been a very difficult prior year. Despite two
additional short-term rate increases by the Federal Reserve, longer term rates
have fallen dramatically allowing for a recovery in bond prices.  The
Government Bond Fund has performed well during this period due its continued
exposure to the intermediate and long areas of the yield curve and its exposure
to both the agency debenture market and the mortgage market in the form of
Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (CMO's).


Last years higher interest rates were generally blamed on
fear of higher future inflation.  Actual reported numbers however
have continued to show few signs of increased inflation at the
finished goods stage of production.  Limited wage increases and
continued gains in productivity get the credit for continued
modest increases in inflation gauges like the Consumer Price
Index (CPI) and the Producer Price Index (PPI) -  Inflation and
expectations for future inflation always drive the bond market in
the long run.  The current relatively benign outlook for
inflation thus could allow for further decreases in interest
rates and higher bond prices, although the underlying value in
the market seems less compelling than it did six months ago due
to the rally we have already seen.

The portfolio strategy for the Fund will remain the same.
The portfolio manager will attempt to identify value within the
government, agency, and mortgage-backed markets while maintaining
a market exposure that will allow fund investors to participate
in future market moves.  Investments will be moved from
relatively overvalued issues to those that are seen as relatively
undervalued as opportunities become available.  Approximately
one-third of portfolio assets continue to be invested in the CMO
market.  The additional yield on these conservatively-structured
investments continue to make them attractive portfolio holdings.
The portfolio will avoid the risks inherent in the more-risky
"derivative" structures that have recently received so much
negative press coverage.

Portfolio Manager

FINANCIAL HORIZONS CASH RESERVE FUND

Short-term interest rates continued to rise during the period as
the Federal Reserve increased rates due to inflation concerns.
Since February 1994, the Federal Reserve has raised rates seven
times.  Additional tightening may occur if the Federal Reserve
determines that the economy is growing at a faster rate than is
acceptable to keep inflation under control.

The yield on the Cash Reserve Fund followed this trend due to
higher yields on money market instruments.  The 30 day effective
yield rose to 5.61% in April 1995 from 4.47% in October 1994.

The Fund continues to invest in only the highest rated money
market securities.  An internal credit review is completed on
every company that the Fund invests in.

FINANCIAL HORIZONS INVESTMENT TRUST

Notes to Financial Statements

April 30, 1995 (Unaudited)

1.  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    Financial Horizons Investment Trust (Trust), is a diversified, open-end
    investment company organized under the laws of Massachusetts by a
    Declaration of Trust dated May 9, 1988. The Trust offers shares in four
    separate mutual funds which are registered under the Investment Company Act
    of 1940, as amended. On December 19, 1988, the Trust was capitalized
    through the sale of capital stock to Nationwide Life Insurance Company in
    the amounts of $500,000 in the Growth Fund, $1,000,000 in the Municipal
    Bond Fund, $1,000,000 in the Government Bond Fund, and $2,000,000 in the
    Cash Reserve Fund, which including the earnings thereon, are still invested
    in the respective funds.

    (a) SECURITY VALUATION
       (1)  Growth Fund, Municipal Bond Fund and Government Bond Fund:
            Securities traded on a national securities exchange are valued at
            closing prices. Listed securities for which no sale was reported on
            the valuation date are valued at quoted bid prices. Short-term
            notes and bank certificates of deposit are valued at amortized
            cost, which approximates market.

       (2)  Cash Reserve Fund: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which
            approximates market value, in accordance with Rule 2a-7 of the
            Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

    (b) SECURITY TRANSACTIONS AND INVESTMENT INCOME
        Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Dividend 
        income is recorded on the ex-dividend date; interest income, including
        amortization of premium and discount where applicable, is               
        recorded on an accrual basis.

    (c) FEDERAL INCOME TAXES
        The Trust's policy is to comply with the requirements of the Internal
        Revenue Code that are applicable to regulated investment companies and
        to distribute all its taxable income to shareholders.

    (d) DIVIDENDS TO SHAREHOLDERS
        (1)  Growth Fund:
             Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
        (2)  Municipal Bond Fund and Government
             Bond Fund:
             Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly
             from net investment income. Distributions from
             net realized gains, if any, are paid annually.
       (3)   Cash Reserve Fund:
             Dividends are declared daily and paid monthly
             from the sum of net investment income and
             net realized short-term gain or loss.

        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 considered either permanent or
        temporary in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, 
        such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on 
        their nature for Federal income tax purposes. Dividends and 
        distributions that exceed net investment income and net realized gains
        for financial reporting purposes but not for tax purposes are reported
        as dividends in excess of net investment income and net realized gains.
        To the extent distributions exceed current and accumulated earnings and
        profits, they are reported as distributions of paid-in capital.

2.  TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES
    As  investment  manager for the Funds, Nationwide Financial Services, Inc.
    (NFS), an affiliated company, is allowed an annual fee of .65% based on the
    average daily net assets of the Growth Fund, Municipal Bond Fund and
    Government Bond Fund and .40% of the average daily net assets of the Cash
    Reserve Fund. Total annual expenses of each Fund will not exceed the limits
    prescribed by any state in which the Fund's shares are offered for sale.
    Such limitation did not affect management fees charged during the periods
    covered by the financial statements.


    NFS also receives fees for distribution pursuant to a Rule 12b-1
    Distribution Plan approved by the Board of Trustees. These fees are based
    on average daily net assets of the Funds at an annual rate of .75%. During
    the six-months ended April 30, 1995, NFS waived distribution fees for the
    Growth, Municipal Bond, and Government Bond Funds of $8,423, $32,179, and
    $213,716 respectively, representing $.019, $.012, and $.032 per average
    share outstanding.

    NFS also receives fees as principal underwriter from contingent deferred
    sales charges ranging from 5% to 1%, imposed on redemptions which cause the
    current value of an account to fall below the total purchase payments made
    during the past six years. During the six-months ended April 30, 1995, fees
    aggregated $11,059, $44,213, $41,702, and $5,055 on the Growth, Municipal
    Bond, Government Bond, and Cash Reserve Funds, respectively.

    A subsidiary of NFS (Nationwide Investors Services, Inc.) acts as transfer
    and dividend disbursing agent for the Funds.
