Report of Independent Accountants

July 17, 1998

To the Investors and Trustees of
The Disciplined Equity Portfolio


In  planning  and  performing  our  audit  of the  financial  statements  of The
Disciplined  Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio") for the year ended May 31, 1998,
we  considered  its  internal   control,   including   control   activities  for
safeguarding  securities,  in order to determine our auditing procedures for the
purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements and to comply with
the  requirements of Form N-SAR, not to provide  assurance on internal  control.
The management of the Portfolio is responsible for  establishing and maintaining
internal control. In fulfilling this responsibility,  estimates and judgments by
management  are  required to assess the expected  benefits and related  costs of
controls.  Generally,  controls  that are  relevant  to an audit  pertain to the
entity's objective of preparing financial  statements for external purposes that
are  fairly   presented  in  conformity  with  generally   accepted   accounting
principles.   Those  controls   include  the   safeguarding  of  assets  against
unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition. Because of inherent limitations in
internal  control,  errors  or  fraud  may  occur  and  not be  detected.  Also,
projection of any evaluation of internal control to future periods is subject to
the risk that it may become inadequate  because of changes in conditions or that
the effectiveness of the design and operation may deteriorate. Our consideration
of  internal  control  would not  necessarily  disclose  all matters in internal
control that might be material  weaknesses  under  standards  established by the
American  Institute of Certified Public  Accountants.  A material  weakness is a
condition  in which the design or operation  of any  specific  internal  control
components  does not reduce to a  relatively  low level the risk that  errors or
fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial  statements
being audited may occur and not be detected  within a timely period by employees
in the normal course of performing their assigned  functions.  However, we noted
no matters  involving  internal  control,  including  controls for  safeguarding
securities,  that we consider to be material  weaknesses  as defined above as of
May 31,  1998.  This report is intended  solely for the  information  and use of
management  and the Trustees of the  Portfolio and the  Securities  and Exchange
Commission.
