Scudder Capital Growth Fund

Supplement to Prospectus
Dated February 1, 1996

On September 4, 1996,  the Fund's  Board of Trustees  approved a new  Investment
Management Agreement, which reduced the management fee payable to the Adviser on
assets in excess of $1.5 billion. The complete fee schedule is:


                                Annual Investment
Average daily net assets        Management fee rate
- ------------------------        -------------------
  First $500 million                0.75 of 1%
  Exceeding $500 million            0.65 of 1%
  Exceeding $1 billion              0.60 of 1%
  Exceeding $1.5 billion            0.55 of 1%

The effect of this  graduation  is that  increases in the Fund's net assets will
result in a lower  annual fee rate and  decreases  in the Fund's net assets will
result in a higher annual fee rate.

As of September 5, 1996,  the effective  date of the new  Investment  Management
Agreement, the Fund's net assets were approximately $1.5 billion.
