Re: Stepstone Funds
File Nos. 33-37687 and 811-6192
CIK No.: 0000869094
Ladies and Gentlemen:
On behalf of our client, Stepstone Funds (the "Registrant"), we request, via
Form Type A/W that the Registrant's filing on Form Type 485APOS, as filed on
March 29, 1996 (Accession #0000893220- 96-000510), be withdrawn. This 485APOS
was filed without its signature page and Part C. We have subsequently re-filed
the Form 485APOS with its signature page and Part C (Accession
#0000893220-96-000531) to bring the Registrant into compliance with Section 10
of the Securities Act.
Please do not hesitate to contact either Cathy Taulbee (202/467-7370) or me at
(202/467-7087) if you have any questions or wish to discuss this matter.
Sincerely,
/s/ JOHN H. GRADY, JR.
