                                 ANNUAL REPORT
                               December 31, 1995
  
  Dear Fellow Shareholders:
  
  1995 was a good year for our Fund, as it was generally for
  most investors.  The Fund's net asset value rose from $9.64
  at the beginning of the year, to a high of $12.98 in
  November, while finishing the year at $12.34 before dividends
  and $11.93 after distributing $.41 of income and capital gain
  dividends.  The Fund's total return for the year ended
  December 31, 1995 was 28.03%.   
  
  As you may recall, The Wall Street Journal in a front page
  article on small "young" mutual funds singled out our Fund
  for its performance and its investment advisor's experience. 
  Most shareholders responded favorably to the good press,
  several increased their holdings in the Fund as a result of
  the article.  We continue to attract new shareholders and new
  assets.  Shareholders have increased by 27%, and total
  shareholder assets have increased to over $5 million since
  the end of 1994.  We hope to achieve total assets of $10
  million by the end of 1996.
  
  Technology stocks proved to be volatile in 1995, hence the
  Fund took short-term profits whenever the opportunity arose. 
  We expect 1996 will be another good year for the Fund.
  
  We sincerely thank you for your continued support
  
  
  
  Ms. Mohini C. Pai, President
  Ms. Savitri P. Pai, Secretary/Treasurer
  
  
  
  Portfolio Manager:  The Fund's portfolio manager, Mr. B.
  Padmanabha Pai, founded Institutional Portfolio Services 
  Ltd. an investment advisory organization.  He has been
  managing pension funds,  personal trusts, university
  endowments and funds for wealthy individuals for the last
  twenty-six years.  Prior to portfolio management he taught
  investment theory at the university level.

                        NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                              December 31, 1995


The Kenilworth Fund, Inc., (the "Fund") is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a no-load, open-end,
non-diversified management investment company.

1.  Summary of Significant Accounting Policies 

    a.   The Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940 as a no-load, open-end, non-diversified  management
investment company.  Its books and records are maintained on the
accrual basis.  Securities are valued at their last sale price as
reported on a securities exchange, or at their last bid price as
applicable.  Short term instruments are valued at cost which
approximates market value.  Cost amounts, as reported on the
statement of net assets, are the same for federal income tax
purposes.  For the year ended December 31, 1995, purchases and
sales of investment securities were $4,285,457 and $3,611,133
respectively.

    b.   Security transactions are accounted for on the trade
date and dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. 
Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis.  Realized gains
and losses from security transactions are reported on an
identified cost basis.  

    c.   Provision has not been made for federal income tax since
the Fund has elected to be taxed as a "regulated investment
company" and intends to distribute substantially all its income
to its shareholders and otherwise comply with the provisions of
the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies.

    d.   As of December 31, 1995 there were 10,000,000 shares of
capital stock authorized.  

    e.   The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with generally accepted accounting principles requires management
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent
assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements
and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those
estimates.

2.  Investment Adviser and Investment Advisory Agreement and
Transactions with Related Parties:  
     The Fund has signed two agreements with Institutional
Portfolio Services, Ltd., ("IPS"), with whom certain officers of
the Fund are affiliated.  Under the terms of the first agreement
(the investment advisory agreement) the Fund will pay IPS a
monthly investment advisory fee at the annual rate of  1.0% of
the daily net assets of the Fund.  Under the terms of the second
agreement (the administrative and management services agreement)
the Fund will pay IPS a yearly administrative and management
services fee of $20,000 per year payable on a quarterly basis. 
The advisory agreement requires the adviser to reimburse the Fund
in the event that the expenses of the Fund in any fiscal year
exceed 1.7%.

3.  Fair Value Of Financial Statements

    Substantially all of the Fund's assets and liabilities are
considered financial instruments as defined by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 107 and are either already
reflected at fair value or are short-term or replaceable on
demand.  Therefore, their carrying amounts approximate fair
values.

    As of December 31, 1995, the sources of net assets were as
follows:
         Fund shares issued and outstanding     $4,410,273
         Unrealized Appreciation of Investments    689,096
         Total                                  $5,099,369

    Aggregate Net Unrealized Appreciation as of December 31, 1995
consisted of the following:

         Aggregate gross unrealized appreciation: $793,106
         Aggregate gross unrealized deprecation: (104,010)

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors
of the Kenilworth Fund, Inc.

We have audited the accompanying statement of net assets of the
Kenilworth Fund, Inc. as of December 31, 1995, the related
statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements
of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period
then ended and financial highlights for the years ended December
31, 1995 and December 31, 1994 and the period ended December 31,
1993.  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 the
financial highlights based on our audit.

We conducted our audit 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 verification by
examination of securities owned as of December 31, 1995.  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 audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights
referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Kenilworth Fund, Inc. as of December
31, 1995, results of its operations for the year then ended,
changes in its net assets for each of the two years then ended,
and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the
period ended December 31, 1995 and the period ended December 31,
1993 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
