REPORT HIGHLIGHTS
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Small-Cap Value Fund
. Led by large-cap stocks, the market advanced strongly during the first half,
with most gains occurring in the second quarter.
. The fund's strong return for the six-month period exceeded the Russell 2000
and also its Lipper peer group index.
. Drawing on our proprietary research, we established new positions in several
companies, including Fabri-Centers of America and North Face. We sold a major
contributor, Keane, because its market cap grew beyond the fund's range.
. Mergers and acquisitions continued to benefit the portfolio, as several
holdings were acquired.
. The market's pace seems unlikely to be sustained, but small-cap stocks could
be poised for better relative performance.

Fellow Shareholders
In a continuation of a multiyear trend, the stock market enjoyed a powerful
rally during the first half of 1997. Large companies led the way with returns
nearly double those of smaller companies. Virtually all gains occurred in the
second quarter as the economy's more moderate pace convinced investors that the
Federal Reserve would not soon raise interest rates again.
Your fund rose 11.25%, slightly ahead of the small-cap Russell 2000 Index and
outstripping the Lipper Small Cap Fund Index, but well behind the 20.61% return
of the unmanaged Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index. The fund's 12-month return
of 23.33% was nearly as good as that of the 12 months ending June 30, 1996
(24.99%), marking the ninth consecutive "June year" of positive returns since
the fund's beginning in June 1988. (See additional performance information on
page 6.)

</TABLE>
We want to point out a change in the benchmarks shown in the Performance
Comparison table. We have swapped the Nasdaq Composite for the Lipper Small Cap
Fund Index because the Nasdaq's average capitalization has far exceeded that of
our fund. We feel the Lipper index, which includes the Small-Cap Value Fund as
one of its components, is more representative of our market segment. The Russell
2000 is the standard market (as opposed to mutual fund) benchmark for small-
caps, and we always show the S&P 500 to represent the overall stock market.
Market Environment
The year began on a far less optimistic note amid investor concerns about
interest rates and corporate earnings. The S&P 500 struggled during the first
quarter to post a 3% gain, but smaller stocks did far worse. The Russell 2000
lost over 5% in the quarter with emerging
1
<PAGE>
growth stocks the worst performers. At their trough in April, some technology
stocks were down over 20% from the start of the year. Because of its focus on
lower-risk value stocks, the Small-Cap Value Fund declined only about 1% during
the quarter. Following signs that the Federal Reserve would postpone raising
short-term interest rates again, the stock market began to surge in mid-April in
one of the most relentless rallies seen in years. As I write this letter in mid-
July, the S&P 500 and Russell 2000 indices have risen 25% and 20%, respectively,
from their April lows.
What is behind record stock prices? Certainly the United States is enjoying a
confluence of favorable economic factors: solid real economic growth, low
inflation, record employment, and rising consumer confidence, all combined with
an imposing strength internationally in both economic and political spheres.
Demographics also play a part. Baby boomers are beginning to save in increasing
numbers for retirement, and much of this saving has been dedicated to stocks.
Corporations flush with cash continue to buy back their own stock, and merger
mania is as robust as ever. The resulting demand for stocks has pushed up their
prices, which are then justified by the favorable economic background.
Portfolio Activity
The Major Portfolio Changes table that follows this letter shows the 10 largest
purchases and sales during the past six months. The five new names span a wide
variety of industries. Golden Star Resources is a gold mining company
headquartered in Denver with major land holdings in South America. Carbo
Ceramics makes and distributes ceramic materials used to enhance oil and gas
well production. Fabri-Centers of America is one of the country's largest fabric
and craft retailers, while North Face makes and sells specialized outdoor
apparel. Republic Group is a Kansas-based producer of recycled paperboard and
gypsum wallboard. Each of these companies met our strict criteria when we first
bought them: they had a small capitalization (share price times number of shares
outstanding); were undervalued; and possessed a catalyst to spur realization of
their value. Apropos of our discussion elsewhere in this letter about Wall
Street interest, these companies are followed by an average of only three
analysts, one reason we believe they are undervalued.
Among the sales, it is worth noting that Sinter Metals, ERO, and TPC were all
sold because they were taken over by other companies. Even with the stock market
at record levels, we continue to find values
2
<PAGE>
among small companies that prove quite attractive to larger acquirers. We also
want to highlight Keane, a splendid company whose stock made the fund many
multiples of its cost. We finally sold Keane this year when its market
capitalization soared well past $1 billion. Our thanks go to John Keane and his
management team for their stewardship over our six-year holding period.
- ------------------------------------------------------
Why We Do Our Own Research
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was asked recently why we felt it necessary to devote so much analytical time
and effort researching companies when "the market is efficient." The questioner
referred to the academic hypothesis that stock prices efficiently reflect all
the information available on a company, making it theoretically impossible to
gain an edge by acquiring and analyzing more information.
In looking at the entire stock market, it is hard to deny that stock prices
quickly and efficiently change to reflect new information, such as an earnings
report or a Federal Reserve pronouncement. But what happens if the information
is not widely known? When Microsoft announces a major new product, the press
disseminates the news widely, legions of Wall Street analysts assess the
product's possible impact on revenues and earnings, and tens of thousands of
investors vote with their wallets. But when Analogic (the fund's fifth-largest
holding) introduced a powerful new medical imaging system, the news was heard as
loudly as the proverbial tree falling in the woods.
Merrill Lynch studied the relationship between a company's market value and the
number of Wall Street analysts carrying earnings estimates on the company. On
average, large companies (with over $2.7 billion in market value) were covered
by 22 analysts; small companies, such as those owned by the Small-Cap Value
Fund, were covered by four analysts. In our experience, there are literally
thousands of companies with no Wall Street analytical coverage, period.
In the case of Analogic, T. Rowe Price analysts studied the company's published
reports, interviewed management, visited customer sites, and called competitors.
We analyzed the mosaic of information thus developed and concluded that
Analogic's revenues and earnings were likely to rise significantly over a three-
year period. We felt the stock price reflected only what the company's results
to date might justify, but gave no credit for what might come. In my view, the
information was not widely known because the company enjoyed no Wall Street
coverage or sponsorship. And without wide dissemination of the information,
Analogic was "inefficiently" priced, in this case in the undervalued direction.
Analogic is one of several dozen examples I could cite that justify why T. Rowe
Price invests so much in its analytical staff.
Outlook
How high can the market go? We are as amazed as most observers at
the strength of the stock market's rally, at its duration (since 1990), and at
current valuation levels. We are also puzzled that small-cap
3
<PAGE>
stocks -- while up substantially -- have lagged large stock returns for the past
two years. We caution shareholders not to count on these returns during 1997's
second half -- not because they are impossible, but because a repeat is
improbable based on the past 70 years of stock market history. We are somewhat
less cautious about the small-cap value sector, where we see attractive
valuations particularly relative to those of large companies. Should the market
retreat, we expect to invest our 10% cash reserves aggressively in a wide
variety of inexpensive small stocks.

NOTE 1 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
T. Rowe Price Small-Cap Value Fund, Inc. (the fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end management investment
company and commenced operations on June 30, 1988.
Valuation Equity securities are valued at the last quoted sales price on the day
the valuations are made. A security which is listed or traded on more than one
exchange is valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the primary
market for such security. Listed securities not traded on a particular day and
securities regularly traded in the over-the-counter market are valued at the
mean of the latest bid and asked prices.
Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market and are
valued at a price deemed best to reflect fair value as quoted by dealers who
make markets in these securities or by an independent pricing service. Short-
term debt securities are valued at amortized cost which, when combined with
accrued interest, approximates fair value. Financial futures contracts are
valued at closing settlement prices.
For purposes of determining the fund's net asset value per share, the U.S.
dollar value of all assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign
currencies is determined by using the mean of the bid and offer prices of such
currencies against U.S. dollars quoted by a major bank.
Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value
as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the officers of the
fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
Affiliated Companies Investments in companies 5% or more of whose outstanding
voting securities are held by the fund are defined as "Affiliated Companies" in

its net assets to those of the group.

wholly owned subsidiaries of the manager, pursuant to which the fund receives
certain other services. The manager computes the daily share price and maintains
the financial records of the fund. T. Rowe Price Services, Inc., is the fund's
