Letter From the Chairman and Investment Adviser

DEAR SHAREHOLDERS:

We're pleased to report that the six months ended February 28, 1997, were months
of solid growth both for the financial markets and for the American Performance
Funds.  Shaking off cautionary remarks from Chairman Greenspan, the stock market
continued to chug upward--gaining an astonishing 900 points over the period, and
moving the Dow past 7000.  At the same time, the environment in the fixed-income
markets improved noticeably as data continued to show minimal inflationary
pressures and, as the election season ended, expectations of true deficit
reduction rose.  As a result, the bond markets posted gains for the period.

During the period, too, investors continued to hold record amounts in mutual
funds.  We're pleased to report that with the strong performance of our fund
family, many chose to hold their investment with us.  Total net assets under
management rose from $887 million to $907 million over the six-month period
ended February 28, 1997.

Turning to the markets ...

Generally benign inflation and modest economic growth--recent numbers support
the view that 1997 may be much the same as 1996.  Barring a major event or
catastrophe, the U.S. economy appears to be poised to grow at a pace of 2.5% -
3.0% in the months ahead.

Underpinning this view is a very confident consumer--the past several years have
been very good ones. Real income is growing. Household wealth has increased
markedly over the past two years, and savings rates have risen.  In addition,
job hiring indicators are at high levels.  And, as consumers account for some
68% of all economic activity, their happiness or unhappiness is key to the
economy's future.

A happy but thrifty consumer

Consequently, the immediate future looks bright. Nonetheless, while consumers
may have more money in their pockets in the coming year, we don't expect to see
any major increase in spending, or even enough of a blip to accelerate growth.
Looking forward to retirement, baby boomers are now beginning to save very
seriously--and these savings come at the expense of additional spending.  Also,
the economy is now in its sixth year of expansion, which suggests that much of
consumer pent-up demand has been satisfied.  Finally, despite increases in
income, consumers continue to carry relatively high levels of debt.  Moreover,
bank lending and credit card standards are tightening.

With spending contained, we expect to see slow but steady economic growth in the
months ahead.  Inflation--as always a major concern of the Federal Reserve--
should remain in the range of 3.0%. As a result, there is little reason to
believe that the Federal Reserve will make any major move to shift interest
rates unless the environment changes significantly.  Interest rates should trade
in a relatively narrow range in the coming months and may even decline slightly
later this year--which would appear to bode well for the bond markets in the
months ahead.

Stocks--onward and upward?

The environment also appears likely to continue to be positive for stocks. After
a long period of stocks being dependent on interest rate movements, the focus of
attention appears to have moved to the shape of the economy over the next
several quarters--and as we've noted, the outlook is favorable.  Nevertheless,
there is some reason for caution. While valuations are not unduly high, after
the impressive run-up of the past two years, stocks are not cheap.
<PAGE>
 
Moreover, after years of accelerating earnings, investors' expectations for many
stocks are extraordinarily, and perhaps unrealistically, high.  While corporate
profits may well continue to grow in the year ahead, they will do so modestly--
which leaves the market very vulnerable to disappointment.

Nonetheless, the general outlook for the stock market is optimistic.  Of course,
after the gains of the past several years, it would not be all that surprising
to see the market pause or consolidate at some point during the year,
particularly if interest rates rise due to a quickening economy.  But any such
drop may prove to be a short-term correction.  Moderate growth, modest inflation
and a consumer population pouring its retirement savings into equity mutual
funds appear likely to buoy the stock market in the months ahead.

In closing ...

We would like to thank you for your continued confidence in us.  We look forward
to providing you with investment management and service to help meet your
investment needs now and in the future. If you would like a prospectus, or have

AMERICAN PERFORMANCE AGGRESSIVE GROWTH FUND
 
The market continued to rumble upward during the six months ended February 28,
1997, and as it did, liquidity became more of a concern to investors. As a
result, during the period, the most impressive gains were experienced by a
relatively small group of large capitalization, well-known stocks. With the
notable exception of a few better known technology stocks, financial stocks
and REITS (real estate investment trusts), the vast majority of small-cap
stocks were simply overlooked by investors--and many simply wilted from
neglect.
 
Nonetheless, the fundamentals of the small-cap sector were still strong. As a
result, as buying opportunities arose throughout the period, we added to our
positions in health care and energy--two sectors with very bright long-term
prospects. Overall, however, the period was a disappointing one for small-cap
investors in general, and for the Fund. For the six months ended February 28,
1997, the Fund posted a total return of ^-2.64% (without sales charge).+
 
OVERLOOKED AND UNDERVALUED
 
Given the current market environment, we expect that investors will continue
to seek reassurance and favor larger cap stocks over the next few months. The
small-cap sector may continue to lag--which will create some very solid buying
opportunities.
 
In particular, we expect to find real value in the technology sector. While
many of the larger and better known companies bounced back smartly after the
correction last July, most smaller companies did not. Yet, many have not
missed a beat--their fundamentals are even stronger today and their prospects
even brighter. As a result, in the months ahead, we expect to take advantage
of the lapse in market attention to increase our holdings in such stocks.
 
As of February 28, 1997, the top five holdings in the Fund's portfolio were
Moneystore (4.54% of net assets), Cisco Systems (4.06%), Cardinal Health
(3.90%), Personnel Group of America (3.68%) and Petco (3.50%).++
 
 +With the maximum sales charge of 4.00%, the Fund's return for the six-month
period was -6.54%.
 
++The composition of the Fund's holdings is subject to change.

The Aggressive Growth Fund's performance is compared to the Russell 2000 Stock 
Index, which represents domestically traded stocks of small-to-mid-sized 
companies. The index is unmanaged and does not reflect the deduction of fees 
associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting
fees. The Fund's performance reflects the deduction of fees for these 
value-added services.

Small capitalization funds typically carry additional risks, since smaller 
companies generally have a higher risk of failure and, by definition, are not as
well established as "blue chip" companies. Historically, stocks of smaller 
companies have experienced a greater degree of market volatility than stocks on 
average.

AMERICAN PERFORMANCE EQUITY FUND
 
Benign inflation, moderate growth and relatively stable interest rates--it was
a combination that pushed the stock market higher during the six months ended
February 28, 1997. Moreover, larger capitalization stocks led the way as
investor sentiment slightly favored bigger and better known names. As a
result, the period was a very strong one for the Fund.
 
While stocks across the board advanced, technology and financial stocks were
particularly strong performers. Consequently, our holdings in Intel (2.46% of
net assets), Microsoft (1.87%), Travelers (0.73%) and MBNA (0.81%) made
substantial contributions to the period's returns. Eli Lilly (0.94%), the
large pharmaceutical company, also advanced impressively over the period.
 
As a result, we are pleased to report that the Fund posted a total return of
23.61% (without the sales charge) for the six months--exceeding its benchmark,
the S&P 500, which posted a total return of 22.55% for the same period.+
 
HIGH, BUT NOT TOO HIGH YET
 
Clearly, after the unprecedented gains of the past two years, the months ahead
will be interesting ones for stock investors. But, while we may see the market
pause in its march upward, there's little on the horizon to indicate that a
protracted bear market or a dramatic drop is lurking around the corner. In
fact, in general, stock prices have risen accompanying fundamentals--and on a
valuation basis, stocks may now be at the high end of what is appropriate, but
we believe they are not yet overvalued.
 
Moreover, interest rates are low, and corporate profits, while not rising at
the breathtaking pace of the past year, are still growing. The fundamentals of
the fund's holdings are strong. As a result, while we are now more cautious
than we were some months ago, we are still optimistic about the prospects for
stocks in the months ahead.
 
As of February 28, 1997, the top five holdings in the fund's portfolio were
Coca-Cola (3.04% of net assets), General Electric (2.60%), Intel (2.46%),
Kimberly Clark (1.95%) and Aetna (1.90%).++
 
 +With the maximum sales charge of 4.00%, the Fund's return for the six-month
period was 18.69%.
 
++The composition of the Fund's holdings is subject to change.

AMERICAN PERFORMANCE BALANCED FUND
 
The Fund's solid performance over the six months ended February 28, 1997, was
due primarily to security selection and asset allocation. Weighted toward
stocks and focused on larger capitalization issues, the Fund benefited as blue
chips led the market higher throughout the fall. Moreover, having reduced
exposures in the smaller cap stocks earlier in 1996, results were not
dramatically impacted by the underperformance of this sector.
 
The fixed-income portion also made a substantial contribution to performance,
due to security selection. Focusing on yield enhancement rather than price
appreciation, the Fund's exposure in Treasury securities was reduced in favor
of mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities. Both were strong performers
throughout the period. As a result, for the six months ended February 28,
1997, the Fund produced a total return of 13.08% (without the sales charge).+
 
NO CHANGES UNTIL THE ENVIRONMENT CHANGES
 
At the end of the period, 54% of the portfolio was invested in stocks, 38% in
bonds and 8% in cash and cash equivalents. Barring any significant change in
the environment, we would expect to maintain this positioning until the
economy shows some significant signs of slowing. Moreover, until this type of
evidence materializes and the direction of interest rates is clearer, we
expect to continue to focus on yield enhancement rather than price
appreciation in the selection of fixed-income securities.
 
As of February 28, 1997, the average credit quality of the portfolio's fixed-
income holdings was AAA; the average maturity was 5.3 years. As of the same
date, the Fund's top five equity holdings were Coca-Cola (1.75% of net
assets), General Electric (1.68%), Intel (1.36%), NYNEX (1.36%) and Bankers
Trust of New York (1.27%).++
 
 +With the maximum sales charge of 4.00%, the Fund's return for the six-month
period was 8.56%.
 
++The composition of the Fund's holdings is subject to change.

The performance of the American Performance Balanced Fund is measured against
the S&P 500 Stock Index, and unmanaged index considered to be representative of
the performance of the U.S. stock market as a whole, and the Salomon Brothers
Broad (Investment Grade) Bond Index, which is widely used to represent the
performance of investment-grade corporate and U.S. Government Bonds. The indices
do not reflect the deduction of expenses associated with a mutual fund, such as
investment management and fund accounting fees. The Fund's performance reflects
the deduction of fee for these value-added services.

AMERICAN PERFORMANCE FIXED INCOME FUNDS
 
Up, down, up, down--much as we had anticipated, the six months ended February
28, 1997, were choppy ones in the fixed-income markets. Interest rates rose
and fell in a relatively tight range. Moreover, changes in direction occurred
rapidly as sentiment shifted in response to every bulletin, statistic and
event. Rather than attempting to second-guess the markets during the period,
we focused our efforts on seeking out opportunities to enhance yield for each
of our fixed-income portfolios.
 
CHOPPY MARKETS . . .
 
Historically in choppy environments, mortgage-backed and asset-backed
securities have offered such yield-enhancing opportunities--and they did not
disappoint this time. During the period, both sectors produced solid yields.
Treasury securities, on the other hand, underperformed as investor enthusiasm
wilted on rumors of rate hikes. During the period, however, exposures in this
sector were reduced dramatically, which lessened the impact on the Funds'
performance.
 
Corporate bonds, too, did not offer investors the value that asset-backed and
mortgage-backed securities did during the period but outperformed Treasury
securities. Consequently, while we did reduce exposures in the sector during
the period, a core position in corporates was maintained in each of the
funds--and our holdings here did produce solid positive returns.
 
Nevertheless, due to our reluctance to chase rates up and down, the Funds
slightly lagged industry benchmarks. Given the clouds of uncertainty that
hovered over the market, however, we feel caution was well-warranted.
 
 . . . CALL FOR CAUTION.
 
Over the next several months, the environment may continue to be choppy.
Predicting the market's movements in such an atmosphere is extremely
difficult--if not impossible. Consequently, rather than seeking price
appreciation, we expect to continue to focus our efforts on yield enhancement
in the months ahead.

Over the course of the period, the Fund's position in mortgage-backed
securities was increased by 10%. Consequently, in the difficult environment of
the six months ended February 28, 1997, the Fund produced a total return of
4.97% (without the sales charge).+
 
As of February 28, 1997, approximately 41.1% of the Fund's assets were
invested in corporate bonds, 22.9% in Government agencies, 20.4% in mortgage-
backed securities, 4.8% in asset-backed securities, 3.7% in taxable municipal
bonds, 3.5% in Treasury securities, 1.6% in medium term notes and 1.2% in cash
equivalents. The average maturity of the Fund's portfolio was 9.38 years; the
average credit quality of the portfolio's holdings was AA2.++
 
 +With the maximum sales charge of 4.00%, the Fund's return for the six-month
period was 0.82%.
 
++The composition of the Fund's holdings is subject to change.

AMERICAN PERFORMANCE INTERMEDIATE TAX-FREE BOND FUND/1/
 
Like all sectors of the fixed-income market, the municipal markets were
somewhat anxious as interest rates seesawed up and down throughout the six
months ended February 28, 1997. Unlike other sectors of the market, however,
continued light supply of new securities made it difficult for investors to
chase rates.
 
As a result, the tax-free markets were somewhat quieter than the taxable
markets, and the period was a relatively lackluster one, as prices did not
move significantly in either direction. Moreover, lack of supply made it hard
to find opportunities to enhance yield without compromising quality. Whenever
solid opportunities arose, however, we moved quickly to capitalize on them. As
a result, for the six months ended February 28, 1997, the Fund generated a
total return of 3.73%.+
 
At the end of the period, approximately 97% of the Fund's assets were invested
in a laddered portfolio of securities issued by municipalities in some 20
states across the country. The average credit quality of these securities was
AA; the average maturity was 6.4 years. The remainder of the Fund's assets,
approximately 3%, was held in cash.++
 
/1/Some of the Fund's income may be subject to certain state and local taxes

Past performance is not predicitive of future results. The investment return and
NAV will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth 
more or less than the original cost.

The performance of the American Performance Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund is
measured against the Lehman Brothers Municipal Bond Index, an unmanaged index
which is considered to be representative of the performance of municipal bond
market as a whole. The index does not reflect the deduction of expenses
associated with a mutual fund, such as investment management and fund accounting
fees. The Fund's performance reflects the deduction of fees for these value-
added services.

AMERICAN PERFORMANCE MONEY MARKET FUNDS*
 
THE U.S. TREASURY FUND
After a summer spent anxiously anticipating rate hikes in response to the
economy's surprising strength, investors accepted the fact that the Federal
Reserve was unlikely to make any significant move until after the election.
Consequently, while rates did move higher throughout the fall, they did so
quietly and relatively modestly.
 
Post election, of course, uncertainty again swept through the marketplace,
fueled by expectations that the Federal Reserve would finally act. With the
economy on an even keel and inflation at benign levels, however, there is
little reason to believe that the Federal Reserve will make a major shift in
interest rates. Until there is a significant change in the environment, rates
should continue to trade in a relatively narrow range. Nevertheless, we will
continue to approach the markets cautiously--investing primarily in overnight
securities in an effort to maintain the Fund's flexibility and seeking out
opportunities to increase yield.
 
THE CASH MANAGEMENT FUND
The economy experienced GDP growth in the third and fourth quarter of 2.1% and
3.9%, respectively. This expansionary growth, coupled with lower than expected
inflation throughout the year, caused the Federal Reserve to struggle with the
concept of a very healthy economy untroubled by accelerating inflation. Given
this rather unusual situation, the Federal Reserve opted to sit on the fence
until evidence of rising inflationary pressures materialized.
 
Consequently, throughout the period, the weighted average maturity of the
portfolio was maintained at or near a neutral posture in an effort to maximize
flexibility. Consequently, the portfolio is well-positioned to capitalize on
any possible action the Federal Reserve might take in the spring or early
summer.

                         Notes to Financial Statements
                               February 28, 1997
                                  (Unaudited)


1.  Organization:

    The American Performance Funds (the "Funds") were organized on October 1,
    1987, and are registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940
    Act"), as amended, as a diversified, open-end investment company established
    as a Massachusetts business trust. The Funds are authorized to issue an
    unlimited number of shares with a par value of $.00001 per share. The Funds
    presently offer shares of the Cash Management Fund, the U.S. Treasury Fund,
    the Bond Fund, the Intermediate Bond Fund, the Equity Fund, the Aggressive
    Growth Fund, the Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund, the Short-Term Income Fund
    and the Balanced Fund (individually referred to as a "Fund"). Bank of
    Oklahoma, N.A. (BOK) (successor to BancOklahoma Trust Company), a subsidiary
    of BancOklahoma Corp., serves as investment adviser to the Funds. AMR
    Investment Services, Inc. ("AMR") a subsidiary of AMR Corporation, the
    parent company of American Airlines, Inc., serves as sub-investment adviser
    to the Cash Management Fund. BOK also serves as custodian to the Funds. 

    The investment objective of the Cash Management Fund and U.S. Treasury Fund
    (the "money market funds") is to seek current income with liquidity and 
    stability of principal. The Equity Fund has as its objective to seek growth
    of capital. The Aggressive Growth Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation.
    The Balanced Fund seeks current income and, secondarily, long-term capital
    growth. The Bond Fund's objective is to maximize total return. The
    Intermediate Bond Fund, Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund and the Short-Term
    Income Fund seek current income, consistent with the preservation of
    capital.

2.  Significant Accounting Policies:

    The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by
    the Funds in the preparation of their financial statements. The policies are
    in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. The preparation
    of financial statements 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 income and
    expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

          Securities Valuation:

          Investments of the money market funds are valued at either amortized
          cost, which approximates market value, or at original cost, which
          combined with accrued interest approximates market value. Discount or
          premium is amortized on a constant basis to the maturity of the
          security under the amortized cost method. In addition, the money
          market funds may not a) purchase any instrument with a remaining
          maturity greater than thirteen months unless such investment is
          subject to a demand feature, or b) maintain a dollar weighted average
          portfolio maturity which exceeds 90 days.

          Investments in common stocks, corporate bonds, commercial paper, 
          municipal government bonds and U.S. Government securities of the 
          Bond Fund, Intermediate Bond Fund, Equity Fund, Aggressive Growth 
          Fund, Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund, Short-Term Income Fund and 
          Balanced Fund (collectively, "the variable net asset value funds"), 
          are valued at their market value determined on the basis of the 
          latest available bid prices in the principal market (closing sales 
          prices if the principal market is an exchange) in which such 
          securities are normally traded. Investments in investment companies 
          are valued at their net asset values as reported by such companies. 
          The differences between the cost and market values of investments 
          held by the variable net asset value funds are reflected as either 
          unrealized appreciation or depreciation.

                   Notes to Financial Statements, Continued
                               February 28, 1997
                                  (Unaudited)


          Security Transactions and Related Income:

          Security transactions are accounted for on the date the security is
          purchased or sold (trade date). Interest income is recognized on the
          accrual basis and includes, where applicable, the pro rata
          amortization of premium or accretion of discount. Dividend income is
          recorded on the ex-dividend date. Gains or losses realized on sales of
          securities are determined by comparing the identified cost of the
          security lot sold with the net sales proceeds.

          Securities Purchased on a When-issued Basis and Delayed Delivery 
          Basis:

          Each Fund may purchase securities on a "when-issued" basis.
          When-issued securities are securities purchased for delivery beyond
          the normal settlement date at a stated price and/or yield, thereby
          involving the risk that the price and/or yield obtained may be more or
          less than those available in the market when delivery takes place. The
          Fund records the transaction and reflects the value of the security in
          determining net asset value at the time the Fund makes the commitment
          to purchase a security on a when-issued basis. Normally, the
          settlement date occurs within one month of the purchase. No payment is
          made by the Fund and no interest accrues to the Fund during the period
          between purchase and settlement. The Fund establishes a segregated
          account in which it maintains cash and marketable securities equal in
          value to commitments for when-issued securities. Securities purchased
          on a when-issued basis or delayed delivery basis do not earn income
          until the settlement date.

          Repurchase Agreements:

          Each Fund may acquire securities from financial institutions such as
          member banks of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or from
          registered broker/dealers which the respective investment adviser
          deems creditworthy under guidelines approved by the Board of Trustees,
          subject to the seller's agreement to repurchase such securities at a
          mutually agreed-upon date and price. The repurchase price generally
          equals the price paid by the Fund plus interest negotiated on the
          basis of current short-term rates, which may be more or less than the
          rate on the underlying portfolio securities. The seller, under a
          repurchase agreement, is required to maintain the value of collateral
          held pursuant to the agreement at not less than the repurchase price
          (including accrued interest). Securities subject to repurchase
          agreements are held by the Fund's custodian, another qualified
          sub-custodian or in the Federal Reserve/Treasury book-entry system.
          Repurchase agreements are considered to be loans by a Fund under the
          1940 Act.

          Dividends to Shareholders:

          Dividends from net investment income are declared daily and paid
          monthly for the money market funds. Dividends from net investment
          income are declared daily and paid monthly for the Bond Fund,
          Intermediate Bond Fund, Intermediate Tax-Free Bond Fund and Short-Term
          Income Fund. Dividends from net investment income are declared and
          paid quarterly for the Equity Fund, Aggressive Growth Fund and
          Balanced Fund. Net realized capital gains, if any, are declared and
          distributed at least annually. 

          The amounts of dividends from net investment income and of 
          distributions from net realized gains 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 composition of net assets based on their
          federal tax-basis treatment; temporary differences do not require
          reclassification. Dividends and distributions to shareholders which
          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 or distributions in excess of net
          realized gains. To the extent they exceed net investment income and
          net realized gains for tax purposes, they are reported as
          distributions of capital.
