HOW YOUR FUND IS MANAGED
Oppenheimer Strategic Income Fund seeks high current income by strategically
allocating its assets among three sectors: U.S. government issues, foreign fixed
income securities and higher-yielding, lower-rated corporate bonds. Strategic
investing gives the Fund's managers the flexibility to shift assets among three
fixed income sectors to capitalize on worldwide investment opportunities. At the
same time, allocating the Fund's assets among three distinct fixed income
sectors can provide the diversification necessary to lower risk.
PERFORMANCE
Total returns at net asset value for the 12 months ended 9/30/95 for Class A and
B shares were 8.62% and 7.79%, respectively.1
Your Fund's average annual total returns at maximum offering price for Class
A shares for the 1- and 5-year periods ended 9/30/95 and since inception of the
Class on 10/16/89 were 3.46%, 9.53% and 9.72%, respectively. For Class B shares,
average annual total returns for the 1-year period ended 9/30/95 and since
inception of the Class on 11/30/92 were 2.87% and 7.38%, respectively.2
OUTLOOK
"In this environment, where we don't see any particular market as being
extremely under-valued due to the past year's performance, we'll remain focused
on our dual goals of capturing competitive income and diversifying our
investments to help reduce risk."
David Negri and Art Steinmetz, Portfolio Managers

All figures assume reinvestment of dividends and capital gains distributions.
Past performance is not indicative of future results. Investment return and
principal value on an investment in the Fund will fluctuate so that an
investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than the original
cost.
1. Based on the change in net asset value per share from 9/30/94 to 9/30/95,
without deducting any sales charges. Such performance would have been lower if
sales charges were taken into account.
2. Class A returns show results of hypothetical investments on 9/30/94, 9/30/90,
and 10/16/89 (inception of class), after deducting the current maximum initial
sales charge of 4.75%. Class B returns show results of hypothetical investments
on 9/30/94 and 11/30/92 (inception of class) and the deduction of the applicable
contingent deferred sales charge of 5% (1-year) and 3% (since inception).
Certain Class C performance is not yet available because Class C shares were
first publicly offered on 5/26/95. An explanation of the different total returns
is in the Fund's prospectus.
3. Standardized yield is net investment income calculated on a yield-to-maturity
basis for the 30-day period ended 9/30/95, divided by the maximum offering price
at the end of the period, compounded semiannually and then annualized. Falling
net asset values will tend to artificially raise yields.
4. Source: Morningstar Mutual Funds, 9/30/95. Morningstar, Inc., an independent
mutual fund monitoring service, produces proprietary monthly rankings of funds
in broad investment categories (equity, taxable bond, tax-exempt bond, or
"hybrid") based on risk-adjusted investment return, after considering sales
charges and expenses. Investment return measures a fund's (or class's) 3-, 5-,
and 10-year (depending on the inception of the class or fund) average annual
total returns in excess of 90-day U.S. Treasury bill returns. Risk measures a
fund's (or class's) performance below 90-day U.S. Treasury bill returns. Risk
and returns are combined to produce star rankings, reflecting performance
relative to the average fund in a fund's category. Five stars is the highest
ranking (top 10%), and 1 star is the lowest (bottom 1%). The 4-star current
ranking is a weighted average of the 3- and 5-year rankings for the class, which
were 3 and 4 stars, weighted 40%/60%, respectively. The Fund was ranked among
195 hybrid funds. Rankings are subject to change. The Fund's Class A and C
shares have the same portfolio.

Dear OppenheimerFunds Shareholder,
Although the U.S. stock market has received much of the media attention this
year, the bond market has also turned in an excellent performance thus far in
1995. The driving force: steadily falling long-term interest rates along with an
expectation that inflation would remain low.
As you may know, inflation erodes the purchasing power of future income
because bonds pay a fixed rate of income over a fixed time period. Therefore, as
a result of low inflation expectations and slower, more stable economic growth,
investors had a greater demand for bonds and, as such, prices rose and yields
fell.
Unlike short-term interest rates, which are affected primarily by the
actions of the Federal Reserve Board, long-term interest rates are driven by
investor expectations. So even though long-term interest rates were falling,
short-term interest rates were not generally declining until July 6, when
the Fed cut short-term rates for the first time in three years in an attempt to
stimulate the weakening U.S. economy in the second quarter. Back in 1994, the
surging economy caused the Fed to increase interest rates seven times prior to
its July 6 rate cut--and those rate hikes were primarily responsible for the
poor performance of the U.S. bond market last year. But investors who remained
patient and stayed the course have been rewarded in 1995.
And, although the economy has shown a variety of mixed signals recently, we
believe the Federal Reserve will not return to a tightening policy any time in
the near future. Indeed, the Fed appears to have successfully engineered a "soft
landing" for the U.S. economy, one in which growth is moderate and inflation
almost nonexistent.
This two-year period is an excellent example of why investors need to
maintain their objectivity and perspective. Like all markets, there will be
volatility in bonds from year to year but, over time, the fixed income markets
should tend to provide strong current income relative to inflation, and capital
appreciation and depreciation typically offset each other. As a result of the
Fed's change in policy, we believe we're now in a period in which capital gains
and losses will again take a back seat to income as the main driver behind bond
investing.
At the same time, the U.S. dollar has strengthened against major overseas
currencies as both Japan and Germany continue to reduce interest rates to
stimulate their economies--actions which make the U.S. bond market relatively
more attractive to foreign investors. So as a result of international market
forces, a moderate U.S. economic environment, and the Fed's anti-inflationary
goal, we expect interest rates to remain relatively stable.
Your portfolio manager discusses the outlook for your Fund on the following
pages. Thank you for your confidence in OppenheimerFunds, and we look forward to
helping you reach your investment goals in the future.

Q+A AN INTERVIEW WITH YOUR FUND'S MANAGERS
WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF STRATEGIC INVESTING?
As we've stated before, one of the key benefits of the stra-tegic investing
concept is that it lowers overall risk through diversifying among three typi-
cally uncorrelated fixed income markets--U.S. government issues, foreign fixed
income securities and higher-yielding, lower-rated corporate bonds. Though high
yield bonds are subject to greater risk that the issuer will default on its
prin-cipal or interest payments, diversification helps to lower that risk.
Diversification has also helped a great deal over the last year in which there
was dramatically different performance in each market.
WHY HAVE YOU SHIFTED A PORTION OF THE PORTFOLIO AWAY FROM THE U.S. INTO FOREIGN
BONDS?
Another major benefit of the strategic investing concept is the flexibility to
shift assets toward markets we think show the greatest potential. The move to
increase foreign bonds was based on having taken advantage of the better
relative performance of the domestic market in the first half of the year.
Once the Federal Reserve stopped raising interest rates, the U.S. market
rallied sub-stantially, becoming one of the strongest bull markets in years.
And, while it took the world markets with it, those markets have lagged
somewhat. As a result, we "sold high" in the U.S. to "buy low" abroad.
Foreign bond yields have not yet come down as much as yields in the U.S. By
making this shift, we're hoping to increase income and potentially to bolster
total return.(1)
WHICH FOREIGN MARKETS SEEM PARTICULARLY ATTRACTIVE?
We've been adding to positions in Australia, Canada and some emerging markets.
The strengthening dollar should benefit these markets, because a strong dollar
provides the perception of stability necessary for attracting foreign invest-
ment. Securities in these markets and in Europe, where we've also been adding,
seem to have better value in terms of price and yield than U.S. government bonds
in the current market.

David Negri, Portfolio Manager
WHAT MOVES HAVE YOU MADE WITHIN DOMESTIC SECURITIES? As we increased the
Fund's exposure to foreign markets, we decreased our domestic holdings. We
had been moving into longer-term bonds through-out the first quarter because
they'd been benefiting most from lower rates. Most recently, however, as
debate materialized over the likelihood of another interest rate cut and
budget deficit reforms, we began to move into shorter-term bonds. Beyond
that, we've increased our allocation in mortgage bonds so that there is now
roughly an equal weighting in mortgages and Treasuries. As you know, the
markets in '94 and early '95 were unusually volatile, but we expect less
volatility in the second half, a situation that should make mortgages, which
became cheap with fears of increased prepay-ments, a good value.
Finally, we've reduced our allocation in corporate bonds somewhat. They've
done extremely well for us, so we've taken profits and trimmed our position.
HAVE LOW INTEREST RATES BOTH HERE AND IN MOST EUROPEAN ECONOMIES MADE IT
DIFFICULT FOR YOU TO MAINTAIN YIELD WITHOUT INCREASING RISK?
It's a fact that market yields have come down, so we've been looking for
securities with higher yields but with a low correlation to the rest of our
portfolio and better diversification. We've recently added bonds from certain
East Asian markets we find promising. Of course, foreign investments are always
subject to adverse market changes as a result of currency fluctuations. But over
time, the long-term returns more than compensate for temporary risk, especially
when these investments are part of a diversified portfolio. We've also been
buying private label mortgages--mortgage-backed securities on commercial
properties issued by private organizations. We believe these securities can
benefit us in terms of both income and diversification.
WHAT IS YOUR OUTLOOK?
Basically, we're expecting calmer markets going forward, coming off an extremely
volatile period. In addition, the dollar's strength should benefit both the U.S.
and dollar-linked markets by attracting foreign investment, and low global
interest rates should contribute as well. In this environment, where we don't
see any particular market being extremely undervalued due to the past year's
performance, we'll remain focused on our dual goals of capturing competitive
income and diversifying our investments to help reduce risk.
A IT OFFERS THE FLEXIBILITY TO SHIFT ASSETS TOWARD MARKETS WE THINK SHOW THE
GREATEST POTENTIAL.

2. Indexed instrument for which the principal
amount and/or interest due at maturity is affected
by the relative value of a foreign currency.
3. Represents a security sold under Rule 144A,
which is exempt from registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended. This security
has been determined to be liquid under guidelines
established by the Board of Trustees. These
securities amount to $360,526,449 or 6.89% of the
Fund's net assets, at September 30, 1995.
4. When-issued security to be delivered and
settled after September 30, 1995.
5. Represents the current interest rate for a
variable rate bond. Variable rate bonds known as
"inverse floaters" pay interest at a rate that
varies inversely with short-term interest rates.
As interest rates rise, inverse floaters produce
less current income. Their price may be more
volatile than the price of a comparable fixed-rate
security. Inverse floaters amount to $28,089,584
or 0.54% of the Fund's net assets at September 30,
1995.
6. Interest-Only Strips represent the right to
receive the monthly interest payments on an
underlying pool of mortgage loans.
These securities typically decline in price as
interest rates decline. Most other fixed-income
securities increase in price when interest rates
decline. The principal amount of the underlying
pool represents the notional amount on which
current interest is calculated. The price of these
securities is typically more sensitive to changes
in prepayment rates than traditional
mortgage-backed securities (for example, GNMA
pass-throughs). Interest rates disclosed represent
current yields based upon the current cost basis
and estimated timing and amount of future cash
flows.
7. Principal-Only Strips represent the right
to receive the monthly principal payments on an
underlying pool of mortgage loans. The value of
these securities generally increases as interest
rates decline and prepayment rates rise. The price
of these securities is typically more volatile
than that of coupon-bearing bonds of the same
maturity. Interest rates disclosed represent
current yields based upon the current cost basis
and estimated timing of future cash flows.

9. Securities with an aggregate market value of
$688,875 are held in collateralized accounts to
cover initial margin requirements on open futures
sales contracts. See Note 9 of Notes to Financial
Statements.

Investment Company Act of 1940, at or during the
year ended September 30, 1995. The aggregate fair

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Oppenheimer Strategic Income Fund (the Fund) is a separate series of Oppenheimer
Strategic Funds Trust, a diversified, open-end management investment company
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. The Fund's
investment advisor is Oppenheimer Management Corporation (the Manager). The Fund
offers Class A, Class B and Class C shares. Class A shares are sold with a
front-end sales charge. Class B and Class C shares may be subject to a
contingent deferred sales charge. All three classes of shares have identical
rights to earnings, assets and voting privileges, except that each class has its
own distribution and/or service plan, expenses directly attributable to a
particular class and exclusive voting rights with respect to matters affecting a
single class. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares six
years after the date of purchase. The following is a summary of significant
accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
INVESTMENT VALUATION. Portfolio securities are valued at the close of the New
York Stock Exchange on each trading day. Listed and unlisted securities for
which such information is regularly reported are valued at the last sale price
of the day or, in the absence of sales, at values based on the closing bid or
asked price or the last sale price on the prior trading day. Long-term and
short-term ``non-money market'' debt securities are valued by a portfolio
pricing service approved by the Board of Trustees. Such securities which cannot
be valued by the approved portfolio pricing service are valued using
dealer-supplied valuations provided the Manager is satisfied that the firm
rendering the quotes is reliable and that the quotes reflect current market
value, or are valued under consistently applied procedures established by the
Board of Trustees to determine fair value in good faith. Short-term ``money
market type'' debt securities having a remaining maturity of 60 days or less are
valued at cost (or last determined market value) adjusted for amortization to
maturity of any premium or discount. Forward contracts are valued based on the
closing prices of the forward currency contract rates in the London foreign
exchange markets on a daily basis as provided by a reliable bank or dealer.
Options are valued based upon the last sale price on the principal exchange on
which the option is traded or, in the absence of any transactions that day, the
value is based upon the last sale price on the prior trading date if it is
within the spread between the closing bid and asked prices. If the last sale
price is outside the spread, the closing bid or asked price closest to the last
reported sale price is used.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITIES PURCHASED ON A WHEN-ISSUED BASIS. Delivery and payment for securities
that have been purchased by the Fund on a forward commitment or when-issued
basis can take place a month or more after the transaction date. During this
period, such securities do not earn interest, are subject to market fluctuation
and may increase or decrease in value prior to their delivery. The Fund
maintains, in a segregated account with its custodian, assets with a market
value equal to the amount of its purchase commitments. The purchase of
securities on a when-issued or forward commitment basis may increase the
volatility of the Fund's net asset value to the extent the Fund makes such
purchases while remaining substantially fully invested. As of September 30,
1995, the Fund had entered into outstanding when-issued or forward commitments
of $313,292,095.
In connection with its ability to purchase securities on a when-issued
or forward commitment basis, the Fund may enter into mortgage ``dollar-rolls''
in which the Fund sells securities for delivery in the current month and
simultaneously contracts with the same counterparty to repurchase similar (same
type coupon and maturity) but not identical securities on a specified future
date. The Fund records each dollar- roll as a sale and a new purchase
transaction.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SECURITY CREDIT RISK. The Fund invests in high yield securities, which may be
subject to a greater degree of credit risk, greater market fluctuations and risk
of loss of income and principal, and may be more sensitive to economic
conditions than lower yielding, higher rated fixed income securities. The Fund
may acquire securities in default, and is not obligated to dispose of securities
whose issuers subsequently default. At September 30, 1995, securities with an
aggregate market value of $22,888,086, representing .44% of the Fund's net
assets, were in default.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained
in U.S. dollars. Prices of securities denominated in foreign currencies are
translated into U.S. dollars at the closing rates of exchange. Amounts related
to the purchase and sale of securities and investment income are translated at
the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
The effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on
investments is separately identified from the fluctuations arising from changes
in market values of securities held and reported with all other foreign currency
gains and losses in the Fund's Statement of Operations.

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. SIGNIFICANT
ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(CONTINUED)
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The Fund requires the custodian to take possession, to
have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System or to have
segregated within the custodian's vault, all securities held as collateral for
repurchase agreements. The market value of the underlying securities is required
to be at least 102% of the resale price at the time of purchase. If the seller
of the agreement defaults and the value of the collateral declines, or if the
seller enters an insolvency proceeding, realization of the value of the
collateral by the Fund may be delayed or limited.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ALLOCATION OF INCOME, EXPENSES AND GAINS AND LOSSES. Income, expenses (other
than those attributable to a specific class) and gains and losses are allocated
daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of net assets
represented by such class. Operating expenses directly attributable to a
specific class are charged against the operations of that class.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FEDERAL TAXES. The Fund intends to continue to comply with provisions of the
Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to
distribute all of its taxable income, including any net realized gain on
investments not offset by loss carryovers, to shareholders. Therefore, no
federal income or excise tax provision is required. At September 30, 1995, the
Fund had available for federal income tax purposes an unused capital loss
carryover of approximately $34,310,000 expiring in 2002 and 2003.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. The Fund intends to declare dividends separately
for Class A, Class B and Class C shares from net investment income each day the
New York Stock Exchange is open for business and pay such dividends monthly.
Distributions from net realized gains on investments, if any, will be declared
at least once each year.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
CLASSIFICATION OF DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Net investment income (loss)
and net realized gain (loss) may differ for financial statement and tax purposes
primarily because of paydown gains and losses and the recognition of certain
foreign currency gains (losses) as ordinary income (loss) for tax purposes. The
character of distributions made during the year from net investment income or
net realized gains may differ from their ultimate characterization for federal
income tax purposes. Also, due to timing of dividend distributions, the fiscal
year in which amounts are distributed may differ from the year that the income
or realized gain (loss) was recorded by the Fund.
During the year ended September 30, 1995, the Fund changed the
classification of distributions to shareholders to better disclose the
differences between financial statement amounts and distributions determined in
accordance with income tax regulations. Accordingly, during the year ended
September 30, 1995, amounts have been reclassified to reflect a decrease in
paid-in capital of $28,272,149, a decrease in undistributed net investment
income of $11,013,856, and a decrease in accumulated net realized loss on
investments of $39,286,005.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTHER. Investment transactions are accounted for on the date the investments are
purchased or sold (trade date) and dividend income is recorded on the
ex-dividend date. Discount on securities purchased is amortized over the life of
the respective securities, in accordance with federal income tax requirements.
Realized gains and losses on investments and options written and unrealized
appreciation and depreciation are determined on an identified cost basis, which
is the same basis used for federal income tax purposes. Dividends in kind are
recognized as income on the ex-dividend date, at the current market value of the
underlying security. Interest on payment-in-kind debt instruments is accrued as
income at the coupon rate and a market adjustment is made on the ex-date.

3. UNREALIZED GAINS
AND LOSSES ON
INVESTMENTS AND
OPTIONS WRITTEN
At September 30, 1995, net unrealized appreciation on investments and options
written of $35,545,161 was composed of gross appreciation of $157,089,688, and
gross depreciation of $121,544,527.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. OPTION ACTIVITY
The Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write covered put and call
options on portfolio securities in order to produce incremental earnings or
protect against changes in the value of portfolio securities.
The Fund generally purchases put options or writes covered call options
to hedge against adverse movements in the value of portfolio holdings. When
an option is written, the Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to
sell or purchase the underlying security at a fixed price, upon exercise of
the option.
Options are valued daily based upon the last sale price on the principal
exchange on which the option is traded and unrealized appreciation or
depreciation is recorded. The Fund will realize a gain or loss upon the
expiration or closing of the option transaction. When an option is exercised,
the proceeds on sales for a written call option, the purchase cost for a
written put option, or the cost of the security for a purchased put or call
option is adjusted by the amount of premium received or paid.
In this report, securities designated to cover outstanding call options
are noted in the Statement of Investments. Shares subject to call, expiration
date, exercise price, premium received and market value are detailed in a
footnote to the Statement of Investments. Options written are reported as a
liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Gains and losses are
reported in the Statement of Operations.
The risk in writing a call option is that the Fund gives up the
opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases and the
option is exercised. The risk in writing a put option is that the Fund may
incur a loss if the market price of the security decreases and the option is
exercised. The risk in buying an option is that the Fund pays a premium
whether or not the option is exercised. The Fund also has the additional risk
of not being able to enter into a closing transaction if a liquid secondary
market does not exist.

5. FORWARD
CONTRACTS
A forward foreign currency exchange contract (forward contract) is a commitment
to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date, at a negotiated rate.
The Fund uses forward contracts to seek to manage foreign currency
risks. They may also be used to tactically shift portfolio currency risk. The
Fund generally enters into forward contracts as a hedge upon the purchase or
sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency. In addition, the Fund may
enter into such contracts as a hedge against changes in foreign currency
exchange rates on portfolio positions.
Forward contracts are valued based on the closing prices of the
forward currency contract rates in the London foreign exchange markets on a
daily basis as provided by a reliable bank or dealer. The Fund will realize a
gain or loss upon the closing or settlement of the forward transaction.
In this report, securities held in segregated accounts to cover net
exposure on outstanding forward contracts are noted in the Statement of
Investments where applicable. Gains and losses on outstanding contracts
(unrealized appreciation or depreciation on forward contracts) are reported in
the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Realized gains and losses are reported
with all other foreign currency gains and losses in the Fund's Statement of
Operations.
Risks include the potential inability of the counterparty to meet the
terms of the contract and unanticipated movements in the value of a foreign
currency relative to the U.S. dollar.
At September 30, 1995, the Fund had outstanding forward contracts to purchase
and sell foreign currencies as follows:

6. MANAGEMENT FEES
AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS
WITH AFFILIATES
(CONTINUED)
For the year ended September 30, 1995, commissions (sales charges paid by
investors) on sales of Class A shares totaled $16,024,553, of which $4,566,642
was retained by Oppenheimer Funds Distributor, Inc. (OFDI), a subsidiary of the
Manager, as general distributor, and by an affiliated broker/dealer. Sales
charges advanced to broker/dealers by OFDI on sales of the Fund's Class B and
Class C shares totaled $20,385,966 and $126,382, of which $1,130,489 and $3,318,
respectively, was paid to an affiliated broker/dealer. During the year ended
September 30, 1995, OFDI received contingent deferred sales charges of
$5,144,993 and $5,409, respectively, upon redemption of Class B and Class C
shares as reimbursement for sales commissions advanced by OFDI at the time of
sale of such shares.
Oppenheimer Shareholder Services (OSS), a division of the Manager, is
the transfer and shareholder servicing agent for the Fund, and for other
registered investment companies. OSS's total costs of providing such services
are allocated ratably to these companies.
Under separate approved plans, each class may expend up to .25% of its
net assets annually to reimburse OFDI for costs incurred in connection with the
personal service and maintenance of accounts that hold shares of the Fund,
including amounts paid to brokers, dealers, banks and other institutions. In
addition, Class B and Class C shares are subject to an asset-based sales charge
of .75% of net assets annually, to reimburse OFDI for sales commissions paid
from its own resources at the time of sale and associated financing costs. In
the event of termination or discontinuance of the Class B or Class C plan, the
Board of Trustees may allow the Fund to continue payment of the asset-based
sales charge to OFDI for distribution expenses incurred on Class B or Class C
shares sold prior to termination or discontinuance of the plan. At September 30,
1995, OFDI had incurred unreimbursed expenses of $73,988,456. During the year
ended September 30, 1995, OFDI paid $499,052, $85,423 and $1,325, respectively,
to an affiliated broker/dealer as reimbursement for Class A, Class B and Class C
personal service and maintenance expenses and retained $14,432,795 and $49,630,
respectively, as reimbursement for Class B and Class C sales commissions and
service fee advances, as well as financing costs.

7. ACQUISITION OF OPPENHEIMER
STRATEGIC DIVERSIFIED
INCOME FUND
On August 18, 1995, the Fund acquired all of the net assets of Oppenheimer
Strategic Diversified Income Fund, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of
Reorganization approved by the Oppenheimer Strategic Diversified Income Fund
shareholders on July 12, 1995. The Fund issued 11,908,408 shares of beneficial
interest (Class C), valued at $55,016,842 in exchange for the net assets,
resulting in combined Class C net assets of $63,020,965 on August 18, 1995. The
exchange qualified as a tax-free reorganization for federal income tax purposes.
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
8. ILLIQUID AND
RESTRICTED SECURITIES
At September 30, 1995, investments in securities included issues that are
illiquid or restricted. The securities are often purchased in private placement
transactions, are not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, may have
contractual restrictions on resale, and are valued under methods approved by the
Board of Trustees as reflecting fair value. The Fund intends to invest no more
than 10% of its net assets (determined at the time of purchase) in illiquid or
restricted securities. The aggregate value of these securities subject to this
limitation at September 30, 1995 was $121,816,039 which represents 2.33% of the
Fund's net assets. Information concerning these securities is as follows:

9. FUTURES CONTRACTS
The Fund may buy and sell futures contracts in order to gain exposure to or
protect against changes in interest rates. The Fund may also buy or write put or
call options on these futures contracts.
The Fund generally sells futures contracts to hedge against increases
in interest rates and the resulting negative effect on the value of fixed rate
portfolio securities. The Fund may also purchase futures contracts to gain
exposure to changes in interest rates as it may be more efficient or cost
effective than actually buying fixed income securities. The Fund will segregate
assets to cover its commitments under futures contracts.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit
either cash or securities in an amount (initial margin) equal to a certain
percentage of the contract value. Subsequent payments (variation margin) are
made or received by the Fund each day. The variation margin payments are equal
to the daily changes in the contract value and are recorded as unrealized gains
and losses. The Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is
closed or expires.
Securities held in collateralized accounts to cover initial margin
requirements on open futures contracts are noted in the Statement of
Investments. The Statement of Assets and Liabilities reflects a receivable or
payable for the daily mark to market for variation margin.
Risks of entering into futures contracts (and related options) include
the possibility that there may be an illiquid market and that a change in the
value of the contract or option may not correlate with changes in the value of
the underlying securities.
At September 30, 1995, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts to purchase
debt securities as follows:

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AND SHAREHOLDERS OF OPPENHEIMER STRATEGIC INCOME FUND:
We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including
the statement of investments, of Oppenheimer Strategic Income Fund as of
September 30, 1995, the related statement of operations for the year then ended,
the statements of changes in net assets for the years ended September 30, 1995
and 1994, and the financial highlights for the period October 16, 1989
(commencement of operations) to September 30, 1995. These financial statements
and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and
financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial
highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned at
September 30, 1995 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where
replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.
In our opinion, such financial statements and financial highlights
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Oppenheimer
Strategic Income Fund at September 30, 1995, the results of its operations, the
changes in its net assets, and the financial highlights for the respective
stated periods, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX INFORMATION (UNAUDITED)
- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In early 1996, shareholders will receive information regarding all dividends and
distributions paid to them by the Fund during calendar year 1995. Regulations of
the U.S. Treasury Department require the Fund to report this information to the
Internal Revenue Service.
A distribution of $.0148 per share was paid on July 25, 1995, of which
$.0148 was designated as a ``capital gain distribution'' for federal income tax
purposes. Whether received in stock or cash, the capital gain distribution
should be treated by shareholders as a gain from the sale of capital assets held
for more than one year (long-term capital gains).
Dividends paid by the Fund during the fiscal year ended September 30,
1995 which are not designated as capital gain distributions should be multiplied
by 1.15% to arrive at the net amount eligible for the corporate dividend-
received deduction.
The foregoing information is presented to assist shareholders in
reporting distributions received from the Fund to the Internal Revenue Service.
Because of the complexity of the federal regulations which may affect your
individual tax return and the many variations in state and local tax
regulations, we recommend that you consult your tax advisor for specific
guidance.
