Fellow Shareholders
Following an impressive 9.6% gain by the S&P 500 in the first quarter, the
market surprised many investors by continuing the advance to record levels in
the second. The large-cap index was up 20.2% over the first six months of
1995. Your fund benefited from this explosive environment, exceeding the
performances of both the unmanaged Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index and the
average for our peer group during the three- and six-month periods ended June
30.

Market Environment
Second quarter gains closely mirrored the powerful gains of the first. Many of
the first quarter's successful investment themes worked well in the second
quarter as well, particularly those focusing on large-capitalization,
multinational companies whose earnings benefited from the weak dollar, and
technology stocks aided by strong personal computer and software demand.
Given the outlook for slowing economic growth in 1995, investors turned
their attention to growth stocks that are better able to maintain earnings
growth in this environment. Value stocks, which include many cyclical
companies, tended to underperform growth stocks as investors grew leery of a
possible recession.
From a market sector perspective, technology was the place to be.
Technology stocks surged, including the shares of software and semiconductor
companies as well as firms with exposure to on-line services. Other strong
sectors included financial, broadcast/media, and consumer services.
Despite the generally bullish environment, several broad industries such
as retail, health care, and consumer cyclicals trailed the most powerful
sectors because of sluggish earnings prospects.
Portfolio Review
Your fund continued to implement its flexible strategy of seeking investments
in any area offering significant potential for capital appreciation with
attractive risk/return characteristics. Reflecting our preference for a
concentrated portfolio, the major portion of the fund's returns came from a
small number of holdings. In the second quarter, the five largest contributors
to performance accounted for roughly 43% of second quarter results and the top
10 for about 65%.
Two smaller-capitalization stocks drove performance in the quarter. The
shares of Catalina Marketing, a marketing company operating a computer network
for 9,000 grocery stores, and DAKA International, a leading contract food
service and restaurant concern, together contributed about 22% of the advance.
In addition, two of the fund's major technology holdings, Adobe Systems and
Xilinx, helped performance significantly.
Improving growth prospects along with the potential for favorable
regulatory changes in the telecommunication industry enabled our two cable
television holdings, Comcast and Cox Communications, to post solid gains.
Albany International, a leading supplier of paper machine clothing products,
and General Nutrition, a specialty retailer, both reported surprisingly strong
earnings, leading to sound advances for their stocks.
Unfortunately, even in a bull market, companies that fail to meet Wall
Street's growth expectations are punished by sharp price corrections. Several
holdings, including Brunswick, PacifiCare Health Systems, and Sbarro, stumbled
during the quarter.
Outlook
The first half of 1995 was an exceptional period for equity investors. The
combination of falling interest rates, slower economic growth, and low
inflation created a favorable environment for solid corporate earnings and a
powerful stock market.
As we enter the second half of the year, the big questions we face are
just how much the economy will grow over the next six months and how slower
growth might affect corporate profits and interest rates, which influence
stock valuations. We are somewhat cautious over the near term because of the
market's stunning performance so far, an acute element of overspeculation in
some technology issues followed by sharp volatility after the close of the
reporting period, and the risk that slower growth could result in
disappointing second half earnings for some companies.
Despite these near-term concerns and the possibility of further
volatility in the months ahead, we remain optimistic about the prospects for
sustainable economic growth and good stock market returns. Considering your
fund's flexible investment approach, we believe it remains well positioned for
continued solid, long-term performance.

Notes To Financial Statements
T. Rowe Price Capital Opportunity Fund / June 30, 1995 (Unaudited)
Note 1 - Significant Accounting Policies
T. Rowe Price Capital Opportunity Fund (the fund) is registered under the
Investment Company Act of 1940 as a non-diversified, open-end management
investment company.
A) Valuation - Equity securities listed or regularly traded on a securities
exchange are valued at the last quoted sales price at the time the valuations
are made. A security which is listed or traded on more than one exchange is
valued at the quotation on the exchange determined to be the primary market
for such security. Listed securities that are not traded on a particular day
and securities that are regularly traded in the over-the-counter market are
valued at the mean of the latest bid and asked prices. Other equity securities
are valued at a price within the limits of the latest bid and asked prices
deemed by the Board of Directors, or by persons delegated by the Board, best
to reflect fair value.
Debt securities are generally traded in the over-the-counter market and
are valued at a price deemed best to reflect fair value as quoted by dealers
who make markets in these securities or by an independent pricing service.
Short-term debt securities are valued at their cost which, when combined with
accrued interest, approximates fair value.
For purposes of determining the fund's net asset value per share, the
U.S. dollar value of all assets and liabilities initially expressed in foreign
currencies is determined by using the mean of the bid and offer prices of such
currencies against U.S. dollars quoted by a major bank.
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 the
fund, as authorized by the Board of Directors.
B) Currency Translation - Assets and liabilities are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing exchange rate at the end of the reporting period.
Purchases and sales of securities and income and expenses are translated into
U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the dates of such
transactions. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on realized and
unrealized security gains and losses is reflected as a component of such gains
and losses.
C) Premiums and Discounts - Premiums and discounts on debt securities are
amortized for both financial and tax reporting purposes.
D) 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 an identified cost basis. Dividend income and distributions to
shareholders are recorded by the 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,
aggregated $38,835,000 and $12,293,000, respectively, for the six months ended
June 30, 1995.
Note 3 - Federal Income Taxes
No provision for federal income taxes is required since the fund intends to
continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of
its taxable income.
At June 30, 1995, the aggregate cost of investments for federal income
tax and financial reporting purposes was $33,173,000 and net unrealized gain
aggregated $4,006,000, of which $4,483,000 related to appreciated investments
and $477,000 to depreciated investments.
Note 4 - Related Party Transactions
The investment management agreement between the fund and T. Rowe Price
Associates, Inc. (the Manager) provides for an annual investment management
fee. The fee is computed daily and paid monthly, consisting of an Individual
Fund Fee equal to 0.45% of average daily net assets and a Group Fee. The
Group Fee is based on the combined assets of certain mutual funds sponsored by
the Manager or Rowe-Price Fleming International, Inc. (the Group). The Group
Fee rate ranges from 0.48% for the first $1 billion of assets to 0.31% for
assets in excess of $34 billion. At June 30, 1995, and for the six months then
ended, the effective annual Group Fee rate was 0.34%. The fund pays a pro rata
share of the Group Fee based on the ratio of its net assets to those of the
Group.
Under the terms of the investment management agreement, the Manager is
required to bear any expenses through December 31, 1996 which would cause the
fund's ratio of expenses to average net assets to exceed 1.35%. Thereafter
through December 31, 1998, the fund is required to reimburse the Manager for
these expenses, provided that average net assets have grown or expenses have
declined sufficiently to allow reimbursement without causing the fund's ratio
of expenses to average net assets to exceed 1.35%. Pursuant to this agreement,
$84,000 of management fees were not accrued by the fund for the six months
ended June 30, 1995, and $32,000 of other expenses were borne by the Manager.
Additionally, $8,000 of 1994 unaccrued fees and expenses are subject to
reimbursement through December 31, 1998.
In addition, the fund has entered into agreements with the Manager and
two wholly owned subsidiaries of the Manager, pursuant to which the fund
receives certain other services. The Manager computes the daily share price
and maintains the financial records of the fund. T. Rowe Price Services, Inc.
is the fund's transfer and dividend disbursing agent and provides shareholder
and administrative services to the fund. T. Rowe Price Retirement Plan
Services, Inc. provides subaccounting and recordkeeping services for certain
retirement accounts invested in the fund. The fund incurred expenses pursuant
to these related party agreements totaling approximately $112,000 for the six
months ended June 30, 1995, of which $27,000 was payable at period-end.
