Report Highlights

o     The bond market weakened over the last six months due to surprisingly
      strong economic growth and inflation concerns.  

o     The Summit Cash Reserves Fund performed slightly better than its peer
      group for the six months ended April 30.

o     Despite the unfavorable bond market, the Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund
      produced a small gain for the most recent six months, essentially in
      line with similar funds.

o     The GNMA Fund provided a small but positive return over the most recent
      six months as mortgages outperformed Treasuries.

o     The bond market could remain weak if economic growth stays strong. 
      However, future bad news may already be largely discounted.

Fellow Shareholders

The powerful bond market rally that began in 1995 finally ran out of steam in
February, halfway through the Summit Funds' reporting period. Surprisingly
strong economic growth and renewed concerns about inflation drove interest
rates higher and bond prices lower, resulting in weak returns for most bond
funds over the last six months. 

MARKET ENVIRONMENT

Proving once again the capricious nature of Wall Street, bond market
psychology changed almost in the blink of an eye.  From November through
January, prices continued to rise modestly on the expectation of moderate
economic growth, subdued inflation, and progress toward a balanced budget. 
Indeed, with the economic expansion turning five years old and graying at the
temples, some concerns about a recession surfaced.  With inflation under
control, the Federal Reserve trimmed the federal funds target in December and
again in January, to 5.25%, and the market awaited further easing to prod the
sluggish economy.

In February, however, the economy began showing signs of unexpected strength,
notably with a stunning 631,000 increase in payroll jobs, one of the largest
monthly increases on record. Inflation picked up slightly due to higher oil
and grain prices, and the economy grew at a healthy 2.8% pace in the first
calendar quarter.

Chart 1 - Interest Rate Levels

As a result, the bond market quickly reversed course from an expectation of
further easing by the Federal Reserve to one of more tightening this year. 
After dipping from 5.8% to 5.2% between November and February, the five-year
Treasury note yield rose steeply to 6.3% by the end of April.  The yield on
the current coupon GNMA took off as well, jumping from 6.8% in early February
to 7.7% by the end of April.  Consequently, the bond market gave back some of
the gains achieved during the rally of 1995.

Summit Cash Reserves Fund  

Money market yields dropped through most of the reporting period in tandem
with the federal funds rate.  Despite rising in recent weeks in anticipation
of a Fed tightening, they have not yet regained their levels of six months
ago.  As shown in the chart, the 90-day Treasury bill yield rose in recent
weeks to close April at 5% but remained below last October's 5.3% level. 
Similarly, your fund's seven-day compound yield was 5.13% on April 30 versus
5.56% six months ago.

_____________________________________________________________________________
MONEY FUNDS, INCLUDING YOURS, GENERALLY OUTPERFORMED BOND FUNDS

Anticipating further easing by the Federal Reserve, we maintained an average
maturity about 10 days longer than similar funds from October through January. 
This strategy helped delay the rollover of assets into lower-yielding
securities and kept our yield relatively high.  Since then, given the stronger
economy and diminishing likelihood of further cuts in short-term interest
rates, the fund has adopted a less aggressive posture relative to its peers. 
Our average maturity dropped from 64 days in October to 59 days in April,
bringing the fund's yield more in line with its competitors.  We made no major
changes in sector diversification, although we slightly shifted from fixed
rate to floating rate securities, which are more attractive in a rising rate
environment.

*Estimated.

Money funds, including yours, generally outperformed bond funds in the recent
rising rate environment since they are managed to maintain a stable share
price.  The fund provided a solid 2.62% return for the six-month period and
achieved a slight edge over its benchmark for both the six- and 12-month
periods ended April 30.

Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund  

For most of the last six months, we continued lengthening the fund's effective
duration, benefiting from the dip in intermediate rates that continued into
February.  At the end of April, duration stood at 2.8 years, up from 2.1 years
last October. (Duration is a more accurate measure than maturity of a fund's
price sensitivity to changes in interest rates.)  While the longer posture
enhanced the fund's price appreciation when rates were falling, it resulted in
steeper price declines when rates reversed course in February.

Debt Funds Average                                   1.39         7.24

Despite the unfavorable bond market, we achieved a small positive return for
the six-month period, essentially in line with the average for similar funds. 
Results were better for the 12-month period, although the fund underperformed
the peer group due to the lingering effect of our shorter relative durations
during last spring's rally.  Note: Lipper Analytical Services has changed the
fund's benchmark to the one shown in the table, which it considers more
appropriate.  The previous benchmark, the Lipper Short Investment-Grade Debt
Funds Average, returned 1.86% and 6.47% for the 6- and 12-month periods ended
April 30, respectively.  

Chart 2 - Quality Diversification

We made several portfolio changes in response to the runup in interest rates,
including paring our exposure to Treasuries from 20% to 6% of net assets and
redeploying the proceeds into cash instruments.  We also swapped some
Treasuries for BBB-rated utilities that were available at attractive prices,
raising our exposure to that sector from 1% to 8%.

The fund maintained high overall credit quality, with three-quarters of assets
invested in securities rated A or higher.  We added incremental yield to the
portfolio by holding 5% of assets in a select group of lower-quality,
higher-yielding securities rated B and BB.  However, the yield advantage of
these securities versus investment-grade bonds narrowed significantly in
recent weeks, prompting us to consider a reduction in our high-yield exposure
to raise the fund's overall credit quality. 

Summit GNMA Fund

The recent jump in interest rates caused prepayment activity, which can reduce
the total return of some mortgage-backed securities, to retreat toward the
lows of 1994.  With prepayments down, GNMAs outperformed Treasuries after
trailing them for most of last year.  However, rising interest rates also
resulted in significant price declines that offset the higher level of income
offered by GNMAs.  In addition, we eliminated our holdings of long Treasury
bonds as rates rose, but not before giving back some price gains.  As a
result, your fund barely eked out a positive return during the most recent
six-month period and slightly trailed its peer group.  For the 12 months ended
April 30, the fund produced respectable absolute and relative returns.

Performance Comparison

GNMA Fund                                            0.45%        7.86%
Lipper GNMA Funds Average                            0.83         7.75

By eliminating our long Treasury position, we cut our exposure to Treasuries
in half, to 8% of net assets.  The proceeds were redeployed into a GNMA
mortgage pool yielding 8%, increasing the fund's yield while reducing its
sensitivity to rising interest rates.  Our strategy remained focused on a wide
range of GNMA securities, including lower-coupon mortgages trading at a
discount to par value and higher-coupon issues trading at a premium.  Some of
the lower-coupon issues were purchased in the forward market, providing the
liquidity to change our coupon mix efficiently.  The fund benefited slightly
from rising rates by holding a 1% position in an interest only (IO) CMO, which
rose in price as rates increased.    

OUTLOOK

The bond market will be paying close attention to signs of robust economic
growth and any hint of accelerating inflation.  If the economy continues to
expand at the same rate in the second quarter as in the first, the bond market
could experience further weakness.  Inflation also remains a concern due to
recent increases in oil and grain prices.

However, the bond market may have already discounted much of the bad news, as
evidenced by the increasingly higher yields of the past few months.  In
addition, the economic cycle has reached a mature stage, and it is possible
that growth in the second half of the year may slow from the pace of the first
half. 

As always, we appreciate your continued confidence in T. Rowe Price.

T. Rowe Price Summit Income Funds
Unaudited                                                       April 30, 1996

Notes to Financial Statements

Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies

T. Rowe Price Summit Funds, Inc., (the Corporation) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940. The Summit Cash Reserves Fund (the Cash
Reserves Fund), the Summit Limited-Term Bond Fund (the Limited-Term Bond
Fund), and the Summit GNMA Fund (the GNMA Fund), diversified, open-end
management investment companies, are the three portfolios established by the
Corporation and commenced operations on October 29, 1993.

Valuation  

Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market. Except
for securities held by the Money Fund, investments in securities originally
issued with maturities of one year or more are stated at fair value as
furnished by dealers who make markets in such securities or by an independent
pricing service, which considers yield or price of bonds of comparable
quality, coupon, maturity, and type, as well as prices quoted by dealers who
make markets in such securities. Securities held by the bond funds with
original maturities of less than one year are stated at fair value, which is
determined by using a matrix system that establishes a value for each security
based on money market yields. Securities held by the Money Fund are valued at
amortized cost.

Assets and liabilities for which the above valuation procedures are
inappropriate or are deemed not to reflect fair value are stated at fair value
as determined in good faith by or under the supervision of the officers of
each fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.

Premiums and Discounts  

Premiums and discounts on debt securities, other than mortgage-backed
securities, are amortized for both financial reporting and tax purposes.
Premiums and discounts on mortgage-backed securities are recognized upon
principal repayment as gain or loss for financial reporting purposes and as
ordinary income for tax purposes.

Other  

Income and expenses are recorded on the accrual basis. Investment transactions
are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses are reported on
the identified cost basis. Distributions to shareholders are recorded by each
fund on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are
determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ
from those determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Note 2 - Investment Transactions

Commercial Paper Joint Account  

The Limited-Term Bond Fund, and other affiliated funds, may transfer
uninvested cash into a commercial paper joint account, the daily aggregate
balance of which is invested in high-grade commercial paper. All securities
purchased by the joint account satisfy the Limited-Term Bond Fund's criteria
as to quality, yield, and liquidity. 

Other  

Purchases and sales of U.S. government securities and other portfolio
securities, excluding short-term securities, for the six months ended April
30, 1996, were as follows:

                                    Limited-Term              GNMA
                                       Bond Fund              Fund

     Sales                             8,452,000        16,137,000
Other securities

     Sales                             6,053,000            13,000

Note 3 - Federal Income Taxes

No provision for federal income taxes is required since each fund intends to
continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of
its taxable income. The Limited-Term Bond Fund has unused realized capital
loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of $1,371,000, of which
$1,017,000 expires in 2002, and $354,000 in 2003. The GNMA Fund has an unused
realized capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of
$187,000, which expires in 2003. Each fund intends to retain gains realized in
future periods that may be offset by available capital loss carryforwards. 

At April 30, 1996, the aggregate cost of investments for the Cash Reserves,
Limited-Term Bond, and GNMA funds for federal income tax and financial
reporting purposes was $576,870,000, $25,574,000, and $24,160,000,
respectively. For the Cash Reserves Fund, amortized cost is equivalent to
value; and for the Limited-Term Bond and GNMA funds, net unrealized gain
(loss) on investments was as follows:

                                    Limited-Term              GNMA
                                       Bond Fund              Fund

Appreciated investments             $    107,000      $    222,000
Depreciated investments                 (328,000)         (448,000)
Net unrealized gain (loss)          $   (221,000)     $   (226,000)

Note 4 - Related Party Transactions

The investment management and administrative agreement between each fund and
T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. provides for an all-inclusive annual fee, of
which $147,000 was payable at April 30, 1996 by the Cash Reserves Fund. The
fee, computed daily and paid monthly, is equal to 0.45% of average daily net
assets for the Cash Reserves Fund, 0.55% of average daily net assets for the
Limited-Term Bond Fund, and 0.60% of average daily net assets for the GNMA
Fund. Pursuant to the agreement, investment management, shareholder servicing,
transfer agency, accounting, and custody services are provided to each fund,
and interest, taxes, brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses are
