Report Highlights
Summit Municipal Funds
o Bond prices appreciated during the past year, with much of
the gain occurring in the last six months.
o Despite the strong economy, the Fed has held off tightening
monetary policy since its rate hike in March.
o Yield spreads between higher- and lower-rated municipals
narrowed, benefiting many of the holdings in fund
portfolios.
o All three funds exceeded the average performance of similar
funds for the last 6- and 12-month periods. For the past 12
months, the Summit Municipal Money Market Fund, Summit
Municipal Intermediate Fund, and Summit Municipal Income
Fund returned 3.37%, 7.78%, and 10.54%, respectively.
o We believe the relative attractiveness of municipal versus
taxable securities, reduced supply, and investor demand
will favor municipal bonds in the coming months.
Fellow Shareholders
Over the 12 months ended October 31, 1997, bond prices
appreciated. Much of the gain occurred during the last six
months as inflation remained subdued despite strong economic
growth. Foreign and domestic financial markets recently
experienced considerable turmoil, spurred primarily by currency
crises in several Southeast Asian countries. However, the
domestic bond market benefited from the overseas disturbance as
global investors found a safe haven in U.S. Treasury bonds.
MARKET ENVIRONMENT
Gross domestic product, a key measure of the country's economic
health, registered four consecutive quarters of more than 3%
annualized growth through September 30, including two quarters
that exceeded 4%. Despite robust growth in the second and third
quarters, the Federal Reserve opted not to raise short-term
interest rates as it did in March, primarily because of
decelerating inflation. However, the Federal Reserve's Board of
Governors remains somewhat skeptical that the factors
restraining inflation are long-lasting.
Chart 1 - Municipal Bond and Note Yields
Treasury bonds were increasingly volatile, particularly in the
third quarter when various economic reports caused wide price
swings. Interest rates trended lower overall as the 30-year
Treasury bond yield, which began the fund's fiscal year at
6.70%, peaked at 7.17% in April before ending at 6.15%, its low
for the year. The intermediate- and short-term sectors followed
similar patterns, although yields on notes recently rose a bit
from their lowest levels of the past 12 months.
Municipal bond yields also declined from year-ago levels, with
most of the change occurring in the last six months. The
tax-exempt market benefited from subdued inflation's positive
impact on all fixed income investments. However, municipal
performance was not as strong as that of Treasuries due to
increased supply of new issues, including refundings, as rates
moved lower. To date, new issue supply is 18% higher than a year
ago with no slowdown expected before year-end. By contrast, the
gross quarterly issuance of Treasury notes and bonds declined by
more than 20% since the third quarter of 1996, which helped
propel Treasury yields lower.
Also contributing to the municipal market's lagging performance
was the perception that long-term yields may have reached a
resistance level as they approached 5%. During the fiscal year,
yields on long-term AAA bonds fell to a low of 5.15% before
ending a bit higher at 5.23%, down from 5.50% a year earlier.
The five-year AAA yield fell 25 basis points (a quarter of one
percent) to 4.15%, while the one-year note yield remained fairly
flat throughout the year and ended the period at 3.80%. The net
result was a flatter yield curve, with 143 basis points
separating one-year and 30-year maturities compared with 180 a
year ago.
Yield spreads between higher- and lower-quality bonds narrowed
throughout the period. Investors have been willing to buy
lower-quality, higher-yielding bonds in the belief that their
yield spreads would narrow versus high-quality bonds due to
credit quality upgrades as a result of the strong economy.
According to Standard & Poor's, bond rating upgrades exceeded
downgrades by a substantial margin. All tax-exempt sectors
continued to benefit from an expanding national economy, as well
as from better tax revenue flows to state and local governments.

Market Funds Average 1.57 3.04
Our investment strategy helped your fund outperform its peer
group average for both the 6- and 12-month periods ended October
31, 1997, as shown in the table. One reason for the relatively
strong performance was the Summit Municipal Money Market Fund's
weighted average maturity, which was 68 days at fiscal year-end,
significantly longer than the peer group average of 49 days.
Throughout the entire year we maintained a longer-than-average
maturity to take advantage of a positively sloped money market
yield curve. The spread between overnight and one-year
maturities averaged approximately 30 basis points over the past
12 months and 20 basis points over the past six.
The fund continued to invest heavily in securities subject to
the alternative minimum tax (AMT), with 66% of the portfolio
invested in this sector at fiscal year-end, up slightly from 63%
over the past six months. AMT securities generally provide an
additional yield of 10 to 15 basis points, and since the average
of all funds in our competitive peer group had only 16%
committed to this sector, your fund enjoyed a yield advantage.
The portfolio's heavy concentration in daily and weekly variable
rate notes and near absence of commercial paper also had a
positive effect on the fund compared with the competition. Due
to supply pressure, variable rate notes offered good value in
the shortest part of the yield curve. Conversely, commercial
paper, which typically matures in 30 to 120 days, offered lower
returns during the past year than both variable rate notes and
longer-maturity notes.
Tax-exempt money market yields were generally docile over the
past fiscal year, considering the changing expectations for
economic growth, inflation, and Federal Reserve policy. For
example, one-year municipal notes ended at 3.80%, down from
3.95% at the close of the six-month period on April 30 and up
from 3.70% at fiscal year-end 1996. Even though the Fed nudged
the federal funds rate 25 basis points higher last March, only
35 basis points separated the high and low yield of the one-year
note over the past 12 months. Yields on shorter maturities, such
as one to 120 days, traded in a wider range since they are most
affected by supply and demand considerations.

Our investment strategy over the past six months was little
changed from the first six months of the fiscal year, and it
enabled your fund to surpass the average returns of its peers
for both periods shown. We continued to direct new cash into
lower-rated bonds with prospects of credit upgrades, and into
callable bonds offering good yields and the potential for
appreciation due to refundings. The biggest change was a slight
extension of the fund's weighted average maturity and duration
because of the attractiveness of municipal yields relative to
their taxable counterparts, a strategy that contributed to solid
performance over the 6- and 12-month periods. A fund with a
longer duration will appreciate more in price when rates
decline. For example, a bond fund with a duration of five years
will rise or fall about 5% in price in response to a
one-percentage-point fall or rise in interest rates.
As mentioned, the yield differential between lower-rated and AAA
bonds narrowed further over the last six months. For example,
the spread between New York State lease-backed debt and
high-grade debt was cut in half as investors anticipated a
rating upgrade due to increased tax collections resulting from
the prolonged economic expansion. As it turned out, the bonds
were upgraded at the end of August, increasing the value of the
fund's New York State holdings.
Since the fund's inception, we have overweighted longer-term
callable bonds because we believe they offer relatively high
yield for the amount of risk assumed. They also have the
potential for price appreciation in the event they are refunded
to their call dates. The refunding increases the credit quality
of the bonds since their principal is guaranteed at the first
call date. In the last six months, approximately 2% of the
portfolio was refunded this way.

Municipal Income Fund 7.66% 10.54%
Lipper General Municipal
Debt Funds Average 6.35 8.12
The combined strategies of investing a portion of fund assets in
medium- and below-investment-grade bonds and carrying a
longer-than-average maturity and duration, coupled with a low
expense ratio, again produced superior results relative to our
peer group average for the 6- and 12-month periods ended October
31. As shown in the table, your fund posted solid returns of
7.66% and 10.54% for the respective periods. A bond fund with a
longer duration will appreciate more in price when interest
rates fall. (For an explanation of how duration works, see the
review of the Summit Municipal Intermediate Fund.)
As in the past, our primary investment focus was on identifying
bond sectors and individual issuers (municipalities, government
agencies, or other tax-exempt entities) with attractive credit
outlooks and reasonable valuations. We continued to hold about
29% of portfolio assets in medium- (BBB) and lower-quality
securities, which resulted in the fund carrying an average
credit rating of A. This strategy enabled the fund to produce a
higher yield than our peers and to benefit from above-average
price appreciation, as the yield spread between lower- and
higher-quality bonds narrowed.
Chart 2 - Quality Diversification
In addition, over the last six months we lengthened the weighted
average maturity and duration of the fund, assuming a modestly
aggressive posture. This maturity and duration strategy also led
to significant price appreciation as interest rates generally
declined since April.
OUTLOOK
Several factors appear favorable for the municipal bond market
in the coming months. Municipal yields are at their most
attractive levels relative to taxable yields in the past 12
months, the result of increased seasonal new issuance and
reduced demand. Both factors should begin to reverse in December
as issuance slows and cash flow from coupon payments and
maturing bonds generate seasonal demand. Improving supply and
demand characteristics could cause municipal bonds to outperform
their taxable counterparts over the next six months.
The contradictory environment of above-trend economic growth and
declining inflation, perhaps even deflation, still poses a
dilemma for fixed income investors. Classic economic theory
suggests that inflation must follow extended periods of strong
growth such as the U.S. economy has enjoyed, leading to higher
bond yields. However, there is an equally compelling case for
lower bond yields, not seen since the 1950s. This argument holds
that excess labor in the global economy will keep a lid on
inflationary wage pressures; productivity will continue to
increase due to enhancements in technology; and the demographics
of an aging population will spur investments in fixed income.
These trends, combined with a nearly balanced budget and global
demand for U.S. Treasuries, could presage even lower interest
rates down the road.
We believe that the outlook for the municipal fixed income
market is favorable as long as inflation remains subdued.
As always, we appreciate your confidence in T. Rowe Price.

T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Funds
October 31, 1997
Notes to Financial Statements
Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies
T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Funds, Inc. (the corporation) is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Summit Municipal Money Market
Fund (the Money Market Fund), Summit Municipal Intermediate Fund (the
Intermediate Fund), and the Summit Income Fund (the Income Fund),
diversified, open-end management investment companies, are the three
portfolios established by the corporation and commenced operations on October
29, 1993.
The accompanying financial statements are prepared in accordance with
generally accepted accounting principles for the investment company industry;
these principles may require the use of estimates by fund management.
Valuation Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter
market. Except for securities held by the Money Market Fund, investments in
securities 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 Money Market 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 that fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
Premiums and Discounts Premiums and original issue discounts on municipal
securities are amortized for both financial reporting and tax purposes.
Market discounts are recognized upon disposition of the security 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
Purchases and sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term
securities, for the year ended October 31, 1997, were as follows:
Intermediate Income
Fund Fund
__________________________________________________________
Purchases $ 34,831,000 $ 19,067,000
Sales 18,626,000 7,171,000
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 income. Capital loss carryforwards utilized by the Intermediate Fund in
1997 amounted to $169,000. The Income Fund has unused realized capital loss
carryforwards for federal income tax purposes of $31,000, of which $21,000
expires in 2002, and $10,000 in 2003. Capital loss carryforwards utilized by
the Income Fund in 1997 amounted to $193,000. Each fund intends to retain
gains realized in future periods that may be offset by available capital loss
carryforwards.
In order for each fund's capital accounts and distributions to shareholders
to reflect the tax character of certain transactions, the following
reclassifications were made during the year ended October 31, 1997. The
results of operations and net assets were not affected by the
increases/(decreases) to these accounts.
Intermediate Income
Fund Fund
__________________________________________________________
Undistributed net
investment income $ 1,000 $ 1,000
Undistributed net realized
gain (3,000)(2,000)
Paid-in-capital 2,000 1,000
For federal income tax purposes, the Money Market, Intermediate, and Income
Funds paid exempt-interest dividends of $3,689,000, $1,667,000, and
$1,058,000, respectively, during each fund's tax year ended October 31, 1997,
representing 100% of each fund's total income distributions paid. These
amounts may differ from amounts reported in the accompanying financial
statements due to differences in financial statement and federal income tax
reporting requirements.
At October 31, 1997, the aggregate costs of investments for the Money Market,
Intermediate, and Income Funds for federal income tax and financial reporting
purposes were $140,652,000, $47,709,000, and $29,675,000, respectively. For
the Money Market Fund, amortized cost is equivalent to value; and for the
Intermediate and Income Funds, net unrealized gain (loss) on investments was
as follows:
Intermediate Income
Fund Fund
__________________________________________________________
Appreciated investments $ 1,574,000 $ 1,465,000
Depreciated investments - (1,000)
Net unrealized gain (loss)$ 1,574,000 $ 1,464,000
Note 4 - Related Party Transactions
The investment management and administrative agreement between each fund and
T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (the manager) provides for an all-inclusive
annual fee, of which $37,000 and $7,000 were payable at October 31, 1997, by
the Money Market and Intermediate Funds, respectively. The fee, computed
daily and paid monthly, is equal to 0.45% of average daily net assets for the

T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Funds
Report of Independent Accountants
To the Board of Directors of T. Rowe Price
Summit Municipal Funds, Inc. and Shareholders of the
T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Money Market Fund,
T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Intermediate Fund and
T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Income Fund
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets of T. Rowe Price
Summit Municipal Funds, Inc. (which includes T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal
Money Market Fund, T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Intermediate Fund and T.
Rowe Price Summit Municipal Income Fund), as of October 31, 1997, and the
related statements 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
the financial highlights for each of the three years in the period then ended
and the period from October 29, 1993 (commencement of operations) to October
31, 1994. These financial statements and financial highlights are the
responsibility of the Funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our
audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits 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 confirmation of
investments owned as of October 31, 1997, by correspondence with the
custodian and brokers. 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
audits provide 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 T. Rowe Price Summit Municipal Funds, Inc., as of October 31, 1997, the
results of their operations, the changes in their net assets, and their
financial highlights for the respective periods stated in the first
paragraph, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
