                  OPPENHEIMER ENTERPRISE FUND
             Supplement dated June 6, 1997 to the
              Prospectus dated December 18, 1996


The Prospectus is changed as follows:

1.  The  Supplement  dated  May 1, 1997 to the  Prospectus  is
replaced by this Supplement.

2. Effective June 9, 1997,  investors may purchase shares of the Fund in amounts
not  exceeding  $5,000 per  account per month (for  accounts  held in nominee or
"street" name,  that limit applies to the accounts of the underlying  clients or
customers,  including  participants in employee benefit or retirement plans held
in  the  name  of a  trustee  or  plan  administrator).  All  references  in the
Prospectus that permitted purchases of Fund shares only in accounts  established
prior to April 1, 1996 are  rescinded.  As a  result,  effective  June 9,  1997,
shares of the Fund may be purchased by persons who were not  shareholders of the
Fund prior to April 1, 1996. The Fund may be closed again to new  investors,  or
the new purchase policy further amended, at any time without prior notice.

3 is revised to read as follows:

      Contingent  Deferred Sales Charge" on page 29) in Class A shares,  you may
      have to pay a sales  charge of up to 1% if you sell your shares  within 12
      calendar months (18 months for shares purchased prior to May 1, 1997) from
      the end of the calendar month during which you purchased those shares. See
      "How to Buy Shares - Buying Class A Shares", below.

4. In "Class A Shares" under "Classes of Shares" on page 22, the second sentence
is  replaced by the  following:  "If you  purchase  Class A shares as part of an
investment of at least $1 million  ($500,000 for Retirement  Plans) in shares of
one or more Oppenheimer  funds, you will not pay an initial sales charge, but if
you sell any of those  shares  within 12 months of buying them (18 months if the
shares were purchased prior to May 1, 1997), you

                                                   (continued)

    next $2.5 million, plus 0.25% of purchases over $5 million,  calculated on a
    calendar year basis.

    deferred  sales  charge  (called  the  "Class A  contingent  deferred  sales
    charge") may be deducted from the redemption  proceeds. A Class A contingent
    deferred sales charge may be deducted from the redemption proceeds of any of
