Calvert Responsibly Invested
Money Market Portfolio
Managed by Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc.
Dear Investor:
The yield on the Money Market Portfolio moved higher during
the six-month period ended June 30, 1997.
Review of the Economy and Markets
The economy expanded at a robust pace for the first quarter
then appeared to moderate in the second quarter. In an attempt to
defuse inflationary pressures, the Federal Reserve adopted a slightly
more restrictive monetary policy. The Fed nudged its target for key
short-term rates higher in March, but left rates unchanged during the
second quarter.
In general, money market and bond yields moved higher during
the first part of the year then backed down toward the close of this
reporting period as investors revised their forecast for the next Fed
move-first thinking the Fed would take steps to raise rates then
expecting no change. Most measures of the stock market's performance
advanced, with the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index returning 20.6%
for the six months.
Portfolio Strategy
Expecting generally rising rates, we kept the Portfolio's
maturity near the short end of its target range so that we would have
the opportunity to reinvest the proceeds of maturing securities in
higher yielding issues. This strategy worked to our advantage through
March and again late in the second quarter.
Outlook
Investors, market pundits and the Federal Reserve are
struggling to evaluate a mixed bag of economic indicators. The
Consumer Price Index (up 2.2% year-over-year) does not point to
surging inflation, but a number of other factors, including an
increase in housing starts and rising wages, can be used to make a
case for a strengthening economy. In addition, Congress' plan to
reduce the deficit while also pushing through a package of tax-cuts
is also being evaluated.
In light of the economy's perceived strength and the
possibility of a more stimulative fiscal policy, we expect the
Federal Reserve will take further steps to raise rates during 1997.
The resulting rise in rates would be good news for money market
investors, but likely would not be as well received by the stock and
bond markets.
Thank you for choosing the Calvert Responsibly Invested
Money Market Portfolio.
Sincerely,
Barbara Krumsiek
President

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A-Significant Accounting Policies
General: The Money Market Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a series of Acacia
Capital Corporation's Calvert Responsibly Invested (CRI) Portfolios, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The operations of each series are accounted for
separately. The shares of the Portfolio are sold to affiliated and unaffiliated
insurance companies for allocation to certain of their variable separate
accounts.
Security Valuation: All securities are valued at amortized cost, which
approximates market.
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted
for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost
basis. Interest income, accretion of discount and amortization of premium are
recorded on an accrual basis.
Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the
Portfolio on ex-dividend date. Dividends are accrued daily and paid monthly.
Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least
annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, accordingly,
periodic reclassifications are made within the Portfolio's capital accounts to
reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax
regulations.
Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Expense Offset Arrangements: The Portfolio has an arrangement with its custodian
bank whereby the custodian's fees are paid indirectly by credits earned on the
Portfolio's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangement is an
alternative to overnight investments.
Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required
since the Portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of
its earnings.
<PAGE>
Note B-Related Party Transactions
Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc. (the "Advisor") is wholly-owned by
Calvert Group, Ltd. ("Calvert"), which is indirectly wholly-owned by Acacia
Mutual Life Insurance Company. The Advisor provides investment advisory services
and pays the salaries and fees of officers and affiliated Directors of the
Portfolio. For its services, the Advisor receives a monthly fee based on an
annual rate of .50% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets.
Calvert Shareholder Services, Inc., an affiliate of the Advisor, acts as
transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for the Portfolio.
Each Director who is not affiliated with the Advisor received a fee of $750 for
each Board meeting attended plus an annual fee of $3,000 for Directors not
serving on other Calvert Fund Boards. Director's fees are allocated to each of
the portfolios served.
Note C-Investment Activity
The cost of investments owned at June 30, 1997 was substantially the same for
federal income tax and financial reporting purposes.
As a cash management practice, the Portfolio may sell or purchase short-term
variable rate notes from other Portfolios managed by the Advisor. All
transactions are executed at independently derived prices.

Calvert Responsibly Invested
Strategic Growth Portfolio
Managed by Portfolio Advisory Services, Inc.
Dear Investor:
After generating a very strong 34.33% return for the previous year, the
Strategic Growth Portfolio closed the six-month period ending June 30, 1997 down
15.29%. The bulk of the loss occurred during the first quarter, as the types of
stocks the Portfolio concentrates on, smaller companies and growth stocks, fell
sharply. Performance was positive for the second quarter.
Review of the Economy
The economy expanded at a robust pace for the first quarter then appeared
to moderate in the second quarter. A number of other indicators, including an
increase in housing starts and rising wages, also pointed to a strengthening
economy.
In an attempt to defuse inflationary pressures, the Federal Reserve adopted
a slightly more restrictive monetary policy. The Fed nudged its target for key
short-term rates higher in March, but left rates unchanged during the second
quarter.

Indices performance is shown from 3/31/95.
Past performance does not indicate future results.
Market Conditions
The stock market hit a first quarter high in February then plummeted,
sending both large- and small-cap stocks into negative territory. Historically,
stocks of small companies have led those of large companies in the first quarter
of a new year, but this trend did not hold in 1997. In fact, by the end of
April, the S&P 500 (dominated by larger companies) had outperformed the Russell
2000 (comprised mainly of smaller companies) by 25% for the trailing 12 months,
the largest spread ever recorded. The market bounced back in late April, and
smaller company stocks reemerged as market leaders for May and June.
<PAGE>
Another important aspect of the market's behavior was the continued
underperformance of growth stocks relative to value stocks. When analyzing the
components of the 10.2% return on the Russell 2000, value stocks returned 14.8%
and growth stocks returned only 5.2%. The widest disparity occurred during the
first quarter.
Portfolio Strategy
At the beginning of the year, 90% of Portfolio assets were invested in the
stock market. Early in March, our risk assessment model, the Five Market
Principles, generated an intermediate-term sell-signal and we began reducing our
equity exposure and increasing our cash position. The percent of assets invested
reached a low of 52% on March 20. Our market indicators improved in late April,
and we began redeploying cash to the market. By the end of the second quarter,
we were again nearly 90% invested. This "round-trip" helped to offset the
effects of a declining market on the Portfolio's share price.
Outlook
The Portfolio's recent returns have been disappointing, but we remain
confident in our investment strategy's potential to generate strong gains over
the long-term. The strong returns for growth and small company stocks in the
last two months of this reporting period are encouraging signs that these
companies are beginning to reassert their leadership positions. Typically, small
companies tend to lag or lead large companies in fairly lengthy cycles, so this
could indicate the beginning of a protracted and very welcome period of
overperformance.
Thank you for your investment and continued confidence.
Sincerely,
Cedd Moses Barbara Krumsiek
Portfolio Manager President

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A-Significant Accounting Policies
General: The Strategic Growth Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a series of Acacia
Capital Corporation's Calvert Responsibly Invested (CRI) Portfolios, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a nondiversified, open-
end management investment company. The operations of each series are accounted
for separately. The shares of the Portfolio, which were first offered on March
1, 1995, are sold to affiliated and unaffiliated insurance companies for
allocation to certain of their variable separate accounts.
Security Valuation: Securities listed or traded on a national securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price. Unlisted securities and
listed securities for which the last sale price is not available are valued at
the most recent bid price or based on a yield equivalent obtained from the
securities' market maker. Other securities and assets for which market
quotations are not available or deemed inappropriate are valued in good faith
under the direction of the Board of Directors.
Options: The Portfolio may write or purchase option securities. The option
premium is the basis for recognition of unrealized or realized gain or loss on
the option. The cost of securities acquired or the proceeds from securities sold
through the exercise of the option is adjusted by the amount of the premium.
Securities Sold Short: The Portfolio may sell securities that it does not own in
anticipation of a decline in their market price. Gains or losses represent the
difference between the sale proceeds and the current market value of the
security.
Deposits with Brokers: The Portfolio maintains liquid assets, including
equivalent securities, sufficient to cover, on a daily basis, the current values
of written options and securities sold short.
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted
for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost
basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income,
accretion of discount and amortization of premium are recorded on an accrual
basis. Dividends declared on securities sold short are reported as an expense.
Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the
Portfolio on ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and
distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least
annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, accordingly,
periodic reclassifications are made within the Portfolio's capital accounts to
reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax
regulations.
Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
<PAGE>
Expense Offset Arrangements: The Portfolio has an arrangement with its custodian
bank whereby the custodian's fees are paid indirectly by credits earned on the
Portfolio's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangement is an
alternative to overnight investments.
Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required
since the Portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of
its earnings.
Note B-Related Party Transactions
Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc. (the "Advisor") is wholly-owned by
Calvert Group, Ltd. ("Calvert"), which is indirectly wholly-owned by Acacia
Mutual Life Insurance Company. The Advisor provides investment advisory services
and pays the salaries and fees of officers and affiliated Directors of the
Portfolio. For its services, the Advisor receives a monthly fee based on an
annual rate of 1.5% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets. Effective
April, 1996, the Portfolio began paying a monthly performance fee of plus or
minus up to .15%, on an annual basis, of average daily net assets of the
performance period depending on the Portfolio's performance compared to the
Russell 2000 Index.
Calvert Administrative Services Company, an affiliate of the Advisor, provides
administrative services to the Portfolio for an annual fee, payable monthly, of
.20% of the Portfolio's annual average daily net assets. The Advisor voluntarily
reimbursed the Portfolio for administrative fees.
Calvert Shareholder Services, Inc., an affiliate of the Advisor, acts as
transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for the Portfolio.
Each Director who is not affiliated with the Advisor received a fee of $750 for
each Board meeting attended plus an annual fee of $3,000 for Directors not
serving on other Calvert Fund Boards. Director's fees are allocated to each of
the portfolios served.
Note C-Investment Activity
During the period, purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term
securities, were $3,926,672 and $3,162,430, respectively.
The cost of investments owned at June 30, 1997 was substantially the same for
federal income tax and financial reporting purposes. Net unrealized appreciation
aggregated $446,047, of which $451,625 related to appreciated securities and
$5,578 related to depreciated securities.

CALVERT RESPONSIBLY INVESTED
CAPITAL ACCUMULATION PORTFOLIO
Managed by Brown Capital Management, Inc.
Dear Investor:
The Capital Accumulation Portfolio returned 10.10% for the six months ended
June 30, 1997, a return a bit below the 13.04% advance for the Standard & Poor's
400 Stock Index. The market's advance in the first six months comes on the heels
of the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index's 23.0% return for 1996 and 37.6%
return for 1995. This chain of extraordinary returns has been fueled by low
inflation, low interest rates and a slow but steadily growing economy.
Performance and Strategy
In general, returns for the mid-sized companies your Portfolio invests in
have lagged those for larger companies, as many investors have attempted to
minimize their stock market risk by investing in the well-known corporate
giants. This trend explains why the Portfolio's performance has not been as
strong as that of the S&P 500, which is comprised mainly of the larger
companies.
Within the mid-cap universe, our focus has been on companies that
manufacture products designed to enhance productivity and those that provide
goods and services to an aging population. Accordingly we have maintained strong
exposure to the technology, financial services and health care industries.

effective December 1994.
Performance information is for the Portfolio only and
does not reflect charges and expenses of the variable annuity.
Indices performance is shown from 6/30/91. Past performance
does not indicate future results.
In our opinion, one of the strongest forces behind the economy's ability to
generate steady growth without triggering higher inflation is companies' need
and recently demonstrated ability to improve productivity, which enhances
profitability. Products and services that save corporations and consumers time,
money and headaches have been in big demand. This is one of the reasons why
technology companies have been strong contributors to recent investment
performance and why they comprise such a large portion of our holdings.
<PAGE>
In selecting stocks, we seek companies that are reasonably priced and have
the potential to generate strong earnings growth. We look specifically at the
level and durability of a company's revenue growth, its ability to create and
defend market presence and the strength of its financial structure and
management team.
Recent additions to the Portfolio's technology exposure include Acxiom, BMC
Software and Network General, whose products and services provide a range of
data processing and information integration activities. In the consumer products
sector, we added Illinois Tool Works and Fastenal, companies who address the
tool and tool component needs of worldwide retail, commercial and industrial
markets.
Outlook
Based on our earnings estimates, stocks are at fairly high but not
exuberant valuations. We are still finding a number of promising opportunities.
One factor we are monitoring very closely is the interaction of productivity and
wages, as excessive wage expansion can put pressure on profit margins and
earnings growth.
In selecting investments, we continue to utilize an old-fashioned, bottom-
up approach that we don't believe has lost any of its merit in the current stock
market environment.
Thank you for your investment and continued confidence.
Sincerely,
Ed Brown Barbara Krumsiek
Portfolio Manager President

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A-Significant Accounting Policies
General: The Capital Accumulation Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a series of
Acacia Capital Corporation's Calvert Responsibly Invested (CRI) Portfolios, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a non-diversified, open-
end management investment company. The operations of each series are accounted
for separately. The shares of the Portfolio are sold to affiliated and
unaffiliated insurance companies for allocation to certain of their variable
separate accounts.
On February 23, 1996, the net assets of CRIEquity Portfolio were merged into the
Portfolio. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax free exchange of 207,827
shares of the Portfolio (valued at $4,728,068) for the 259,797 shares of
CRIEquity Portfolio outstanding at February 23, 1996. CRIEquity Portfolio's net
assets at that date, including $249,296 of unrealized appreciation, were
combined with those of the Portfolio. The aggregate net assets of the Portfolio
and CRIEquity Portfolio immediately before the acquisition were $9,742,153 and
$4,727,159, respectively.
Security Valuation: Securities listed or traded on a national securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Unlisted securities and
listed securities for which the last sale price is not available are valued at

Calvert Responsibly Invested
Global Equity Portfolio
Managed by Murray Johnstone International, Ltd.
Dear Investor:
The Global Equity Portfolio returned 14.09% for the six months ended June
30, 1997, which is a bit above the 12.50% return for the average of 39 global
funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services. The key development across all
economies, but particularly in the US, was growth accompanied by low inflation.
Global Market Performance
The US market, benefiting from continued low interest rates, returned 21.2%
during the period. While our holdings of US stocks contributed good gains, the
Portfolio was underweighted in the US market relative to the Morgan Stanley
Capital International World Index, which was negative for performance.

Performance information is for the Portfolio and does
not reflect charges and expenses of the variable annuity.
Past performance does not indicate future results.
Performance for most European markets was also strong, with the following
three themes doing the most to drive stock prices higher: corporate
restructuring, low inflation and interest rates and progress toward monetary
union. Among the strongest performers were the Netherlands (up 20.4%), Spain (up
21.1%) and Switzerland (up 31.6%). The UK market underperformed as investors
waited to see the policies of the new Labour Government. The Portfolio's
holdings outperformed the European market in general, with a return of 23.0%
versus 14.4%.
The Japanese market saw a return of 9.2%. The increase in stock prices was
driven initially by companies benefiting from increased exports as a result of
the weak yen. Then, with the seasonal flow of money into the market from
domestic pension fund allocation, stocks across a broad range of sectors moved
higher. A better-than-expected economic report issued by The Bank of Japan also
helped to encourage investors. The Portfolio's stocks outperformed the market
with a return of 14.5%.
In the Far East, markets were dominated by Hong Kong and investors'
changing expectations for the region after its reversion to Chinese rule on
July 1. Hong Kong ended the period up 9.7%, but much of the strength was in the
Chinese shares, not the property stocks that comprise most of the market. Our
Hong Kong shares underperformed with a return of -5.8%.
<PAGE>
The converse of the attention focused on Hong Kong was the diminishing
trading volumes and decline in share prices in other markets in the region.
Although the economic cycle has begun to recover, markets in Singapore and
Malaysia were lackluster (down 7.5% and 11.8%). Australia and New Zealand
enjoyed relatively better performance (up 6.7% and 6.2%).
The emerging markets represented in the Portfolio, which are primarily in
Latin America, saw solid returns. Governments are now achieving a steady path to
development combined with moderate inflation, and stock markets have
demonstrated the ability to move independently from the US market and respond to
domestic or regional events. Our holdings in Mexico appreciated 62.7%, well
ahead of the 18.9% return for the index. Our investments in Argentina rose 9.3%,
which was behind the 14.2% return for that market.
Investment Strategy and Outlook
The investment strategy for the period focused on Europe, where we were
overweighted in Spain, Germany, the Netherlands and Switzerland. In response to
improving fundamentals, we made a new investment in Finland and added to our
holdings in Italy.
Exposure to emerging markets was increased with the addition of Chile and
South Africa to the portfolio. Interest rates are falling in Chile and with good
economic fundamentals and accelerating corporate earnings growth, the outlook
for the market is positive. South Africa should benefit from an improving
domestic economy with interest rates likely to fall as the currency stabilizes.
Elsewhere, Malaysia was reduced as monetary tightening undermined investor
sentiment.
Our low exposure to the US market was negative for performance. However, we
continue to believe better opportunities exist in countries whose business
cycles are not as mature.
Going forward, we expect the strength of the European markets to slow as
valuations become stretched. This may cause us to reduce our investments in the
region. Regarding the Japanese market, valuations are improving and we will
monitor development with an eye toward increasing exposure.
We are optimistic about the future for Hong Kong and expect to maintain our
exposure. The region should be able to prosper under the "one government, two
systems" process China has agreed to, and the appointment of senior officials
from the previous government to the new administration should help to maintain
continuity.
The emerging markets should also continue their progress in the second half
of the year. Accordingly, we plan to maintain the current level of investment in
these areas.
We appreciate your investment in the Portfolio.
Sincerely,
/s/ Andrew Preston /s/ Barbara Krumsiek

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A-Significant Accounting Policies
General: The Global Equity Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a series of Acacia
Capital Corporation's Calvert Responsibly Invested (CRI) Portfolios, is
registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a diversified, open-end
management investment company. The operations of each series are accounted for
separately. The shares of the Portfolio are sold to affiliated and unaffiliated
insurance companies for allocation to certain of their variable separate
accounts.
Security Valuation: Securities listed or traded on a national securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sales price. Foreign security prices,
furnished by quotation services in the security's local currency, are translated
using the current U. S. dollar exchange rate. Unlisted securities and listed
securities for which the last sale price is not available are valued at the most
recent bid price or based on a yield equivalent obtained from the securities'
market maker. Other securities and assets for which market quotations are not
available or deemed inappropriate are valued in good faith under the direction
of the Board of Directors.
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted
for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost
basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of
dividends on certain foreign securities, as soon as the Portfolio is informed of
the ex-dividend date. Interest income, accretion of discount and amortization of
premium are recorded on an accrual basis.
Foreign Currency Transactions: The Portfolio's accounting records are maintained
in U. S. dollars. For valuation of assets and liabilities on each date of net
asset value determination, foreign denominations are translated into U. S.
dollars using the current exchange rate. Security transactions, income and
expenses are converted at the prevailing rate of exchange on the date of the
event. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated
securities is included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
securities. Other foreign currency gains or losses are reported separately.
Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the
Portfolio on ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and
distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least
annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, accordingly,
periodic reclassifications are made within the Portfolio's capital accounts to
reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax
regulations.
Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
<PAGE>
Expense Offset Arrangements: The Portfolio has an arrangement with its custodian
bank whereby the custodian's fees are paid indirectly by credits earned on the
Portfolio's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangement is an
alternative to overnight investments.
Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required
since the Portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment
company under the Internal Revenue Code and to distribute substantially all of
its earnings.
Note B-Related Party Transactions
Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc. (the "Advisor") is wholly-owned by
Calvert Group, Ltd. ("Calvert"), which is indirectly wholly-owned by Acacia
Mutual Life Insurance Company. The Advisor provides investment advisory services
and pays the salaries and fees of officers and affiliated Directors of the
Portfolio. For its services, the Advisor receives a monthly fee based on an
annual rate of 1% of the Portfolio's average daily net assets.
Calvert Administrative Services Company, an affiliate of the Advisor, provides
administrative services to the Portfolio for an annual fee, payable monthly, of
the greater of $40,000 or .10% of the Portfolio's annual average daily net
assets.
Calvert Shareholder Services, Inc., an affiliate of the Advisor, acts as
transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent for the Portfolio.
Each Director who is not affiliated with the Advisor received a fee of $750 for
each Board meeting attended plus an annual fee of $3,000 for Directors not
serving on other Calvert Fund Boards. Director's fees are allocated to each of
the portfolios served.
NOTE C-Investment Activity
During the period, purchases and sales of investments, other than short-term
securities, were $4,660,916 and $4,989,437, respectively.
The cost of investments owned at June 30, 1997 was substantially the same for
federal income tax and financial reporting purposes. Net unrealized appreciation
aggregated $2,808,212, of which $3,128,221 related to appreciated securities and
$320,009 related to depreciated securities.

Calvert Responsibly Invested
Balanced Portfolio
Managed by Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc. and NCM Capital Management,
Inc.
Dear Investor:
The Balanced Portfolio generated a return of 10.48% for the six months
ended June 30, 1997, which compares favorably to the 10.19% average return for
the 39 balanced funds tracked by Lipper Analytical Services.
Review of the Economy and Markets
The economy expanded at a robust pace for the first quarter then appeared
to moderate in the second quarter. In an attempt to defuse inflationary
pressures, the Federal Reserve adopted a slightly more restrictive monetary
policy. The Fed nudged its target for key short-term rates higher in March, but
left rates unchanged during the second quarter.

*New subadvisors assumed management of the
Portfolio effective February 1995.
Performance information is for the Portfolio and does
not reflect charges and expenses of the variable annuity.
Past performance does not indicate future results.
In general, bond yields moved higher during the first part of the year then
backed down toward the close of this reporting period as investors revised their
expectations for the next Fed move-first thinking the Fed would take steps to
raise rates then expecting no change. Most measures of the broad stock market
advanced, with the Standard & Poor's 500 Stock Index returning 20.6% for the six
months.
Performance and Strategy
We maintained the Portfolio's target asset mix of roughly 60% stocks and
40% bonds and benefited from positive returns from both asset classes.
Equity Investments-NCM Capital Management, Inc.
The Portfolio's strongest returns came from sectors where we have the
largest exposure: technology, financial services and consumer products.
Technology stocks bounced back after a dismal first quarter. We took
profits in this area on strength, but remain slightly overweighted relative to
our peers. Financial stocks benefited from the Federal Reserve's decision to
leave key short-term rates unchanged in the second quarter. Lower interest rates
improves the profit outlook for banks and other financial services companies.
Consumer staples companies were favorites because of their ability to maintain
stable earnings growth.
Strong stock selection was also a key factor. Good gains came from US
Robotics, Cisco Systems, Compaq Computer, Avon, Fort Howard, Bank America and
Aflac.
Fixed-Income Investments-Calvert Asset Management Company, Inc.
Bond yields began to trend higher going into 1997 but retraced most of
their advance in a late second quarter rally. In anticipation of generally
higher rates, we kept the Portfolio's weighted average maturity near the short
end of its target range. (It was approximately 13 years at the close of this
reporting period). This helped to offset the negative effect of rising rates
during the first part of the year, but meant we did not participate as fully in
the late-stage rally as our more aggressive peers.
<PAGE>
Since the beginning of the calendar year, we have implemented a more active
management strategy. We expect this strategy to improve the Fund's total return
over time. Higher portfolio trading activity will result in a higher turnover
ratio due to the Fund's current asset size. For the six months ended June 30,
1997, the turnover ratio was 590%.
Outlook
The stock market has rewarded investors with spectacular total returns for
the past two and a half years. While our long-term outlook is positive, we could
experience a correction as stocks settle back in to a more typical return range,
which has historically been about 10% annually.
The bond market is also likely to continue to exhibit a high degree of
volatility. At some point during the next six months, we expect interest rates
will trend a bit higher. Accordingly, we will maintain our defensive strategy.
Thank you for your investment in the Balanced Portfolio.
Sincerely,
/s/ Barbara Krumsiek
Barbara Krumsiek

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note A-Significant Accounting Policies
General: The Balanced Portfolio (the "Portfolio"), a series of Acacia Capital
Corporation's Calvert Responsibly Invested (CRI) Portfolios, is registered under
the Investment Company Act of 1940 as a non-diversified, open-end management
investment company. The operations of each series are accounted for separately.
The shares of the Portfolio are sold to affiliated and unaffiliated insurance
companies for allocation to certain of their variable separate accounts.
On February 23, 1996, the net assets of CRI Bond Portfolio were merged into the
Portfolio. The acquisition was accomplished by a tax free exchange of 2,061,104
shares of the Portfolio (valued at $3,670,827) for the 230,738 shares of CRIBond
Portfolio outstanding at February 23, 1996. CRIBond Portfolio's net assets at
that date, including $1,419 of unrealized appreciation, were combined with those
of the Portfolio. The aggregate net assets of the Portfolio and CRIBond
Portfolio immediately before the acquisition were $121,161,865 and $3,670,445,
respectively.
Security Valuation: Securities listed or traded on a national securities
exchange are valued at the last reported sale price. Foreign security prices,
furnished by quotation services in the security's local currency, are translated
using the current U.S. dollar exchange rate. Unlisted securities and listed
securities for which the last sale price is not available are valued at the most
recent bid price or based on a yield equivalent obtained from the securities'
market maker. Municipal securities are valued utilizing the average of bid
prices or at bid prices based on a matrix system (which considers such factors
as security prices, yields, maturities and ratings) furnished by dealers through
an independent pricing service. Other securities and assets for which market
quotations are not available or deemed inappropriate are valued in good faith
under the direction of the Board of Directors.
Repurchase Agreements: The Portfolio may enter into repurchase agreements with
recognized financial institutions or registered broker/dealers and, in all
instances, holds underlying securities with a value exceeding the total
repurchase price, including accrued interest.
Security Transactions and Investment Income: Security transactions are accounted
for on trade date. Realized gains and losses are recorded on an identified cost
basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date or, in the case of
dividends on certain foreign securities, as soon as the Portfolio is informed of
the ex-dividend date. Interest income, accretion of discount and amortization of
premium are recorded on an accrual basis.
Foreign Currency Transactions: The Portfolio's accounting records are maintained
in U. S. dollars. For valuation of assets and liabilities on each date of net
asset value determination, foreign denominations are translated into U. S.
dollars using the current exchange rate. Security transactions, income and
expenses are converted at the prevailing rate of exchange on the date of the
event. The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates on foreign denominated
securities is included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on
securities. Other foreign currency gains or losses are reported separately.
Distributions to Shareholders: Distributions to shareholders are recorded by the
Portfolio on ex-dividend date. Dividends from net investment income and
distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are paid at least
annually. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, accordingly,
periodic reclassifications are made within the Portfolio's capital accounts to
reflect income and gains available for distribution under income tax
regulations.
Estimates: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of income and expenses during the reporting
period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Expense Offset Arrangements: The Portfolio has an arrangement with its custodian
bank whereby the custodian's fees are paid indirectly by credits earned on the
Portfolio's cash on deposit with the bank. Such deposit arrangement is an
alternative to overnight investments.
Federal Income Taxes: No provision for federal income or excise tax is required
since the Portfolio intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment

Letter to Shareholders
Dear Shareholder:
We are pleased to provide you with this semi-annual report for The Dreyfus
Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc. for the six-month reporting period ended
June 30, 1997. Over this period, your Fund produced a total return of 16.33%,*
which compares with a total return of 20.60% for the Standard & Poor's 500
Composite Stock Price Index (S&P 500).**
ECONOMIC REVIEW
Will they or won't they? This year's cliffhanger, repeated each time the
Federal Reserve Board (the Fed) Open Market Committee meets, reflects differing
views on the need for monetary tightening between (1) those who point to a
fundamentally strong economy operating with little slack, and (2) those who
point to the absence of rising inflation. At issue is the business cycle, now in
its seventh year of expansion, which on one view may be vulnerable to renewed
inflation. The alternative theory is that the business and inflation cycles have
been eliminated by global capacity and the technology era. The benign economic
environment has kept market interest rates within their range of the past 18
months, swaying with the fluctuations of short-term economic evidence.
When the Fed tightened the Federal Funds rate 25 basis points in March, it
was primarily because real Gross Domestic Product (GDP) in the first calendar
quarter of 1997 was growing at a 5.8% annualized pace on the heels of 3.8%
growth in the fourth quarter of 1996. However, by the Fed's May meeting,
economic evidence indicated a slowing economy in March and April, allowing the
Fed to stand pat. Furthermore, the Fed took no action at its July meeting. Could
this be the long awaited slowdown? Evidence for the second quarter continues to
portray a slower economy, although the pace of manufacturing activity seems to
be quickening again.
Faster economic growth since last fall has been accompanied by slower price
inflation. Domestically, a stronger dollar this year is keeping down prices of
many import-competing products. Additionally though, rising hourly wages are not
yet translating into significant wage inflation. Rather, they are frequently
ascribed to well-earned productivity rewards, while employee benefit costs
continue to be contained.
The risk for corporate profits is probably more clear-cut. The combination
of weak pricing power and a tightening labor market would likely hurt profits in
a sustained economic slowdown. Through the second quarter, however, profits
continued to surprise on the upside, and we currently expect overall profits to
post modest gains in 1997.
MARKET OVERVIEW
Over the past 12 months the market has changed personalities several times as
investors have been keeping one eye on the economy and the Fed, and the other on
valuation and earnings of stocks. While pundits were alleging that the market
had crossed over the irrational level in its valuation of large-cap stocks,
economists were slugging it out over "slow to moderate growth" versus
"reacceleration" of economic growth. Confusion resulted, and that, combined with
fears of a vigilant Fed, led to a sharp correction last July, when the various
averages plunged anywhere from 6% on the S&P 500 to 10% on the Nasdaq. Since
then the market has been on a sometimes turbulent but persistent uptrend, with a
group of big-cap stocks leading the way. Alan Greenspan's implied threat of
raising rates to counter what he calls "irrational exuberance" has not deterred
the strong engine of money flow that continues to fuel the market. With economic
growth healthy but moderate, inflation all but absent from the economy, and
earnings growth weighing in at respectable levels for this time in the cycle,
most naysayers are capitulating and trying to look back in history to figure out
when the market has been so strong for so long.
<PAGE>
Nineteen ninety-seven got off to a good start as the market was fueled by
typical annual asset allocation shifts by investors, payment of 1996 bonuses,
and households continuing to invest for the future. Portfolio managers looked to
1996 laggards and stocks with cheap relative valuations, which were primarily in
the cyclical area. Early in 1997, the economy was beginning to show prospective
signs of strength. This resulted in the market focusing on economically
sensitive stocks, realizing that perhaps these companies' chances for profit had
been declared dead too soon. Consumer growth companies also continued their
reign as the market decided that large, liquid, stable, growing companies were
still the best hedge against an uncertain economy. But what really influenced
the market in the face of Mr. Greenspan's "irrational exuberance" comment was
the fact that the economy (along with the financial markets) was showing some
unnerving signs of strength. Housing data, labor market tightening, stronger
business spending than expected, retail sales, and increasing consumer
confidence levels due to low unemployment and strong financial market
performance all led to the Fed increasing interest rates in March as a
precautionary measure. This brought about a market setback in late March and
early April which proved short-lived.
Since then the market has come to realize that the corporate profit picture,
albeit in a slower growth mode, is still intact. And the economy, at least for
now, does not appear to be in any imminent danger of inflation. June marked the
sixth straight month of wholesale price index (PPI) decreases while retail sales
turned up after declining for three months.
PORTFOLIO FOCUS
The Fund's strongest return contributions came from the financial services,
consumer staples and technology sectors. We continue to favor these areas on the
secular themes of savings and investment, globalization and productivity. The
Fund's performance during the period benefited from its holdings in Allstate,
AFLAC, SunAmerica, Colgate-Palmolive, Gillette, Coca-Cola, Microsoft, BMC
Software, and US Robotics. Each of these companies not only outperformed the
market, but also outperformed their corresponding sectors. Each delivered robust
earnings gains during the past 12 months and convinced Wall Street that the
future was indeed bright for these companies.
After a dismal performance in the first quarter of 1997, technology regained
investors' attention and performed well during the second quarter of 1997. We
currently intend to take profits in this area on strength but will remain
slightly overweighted, as we continue to like the long-term picture for
technology. Consumer staple stocks continue to attract interest because of the
stability of their earnings, although many, we believe, are reaching full
valuation. The financial stocks benefited from a rebound in the bond market as
investors correctly concluded that the Fed will leave rates unchanged as it did
at its July meeting. We currently remain overweighted in this group as we
believe that company-specific fundamentals remain intact and also that the
long-term direction of interest rates is lower.
The transportation and industrial sectors performed well during the period.
However, our underweighting in these two sectors hurt performance. The portfolio
was also hurt by the poor performance of stocks in the consumer cyclical sector,
including OfficeMax and Viking Office Products.
SOCIAL GOALS
Social screening is part of the Fund's fundamental investment objective, and
Fund management is continually involved in ensuring that portfolio holdings
exhibit evidence that they conduct their business in a manner that contributes
to the enhancement of the quality of life in America based on the Fund's social
criteria. The Fund's strong performance relative to its Lipper peer group
reveals, in the opinion of Fund management, that solid social
<PAGE>
screening and attractive financial returns are not incompatible. For example, we
believe that companies with solid environmental policies and practices can
exhibit more stable returns over the long run as they benefit from increased
efficiencies and avoid potential costly liability settlements. In addition,
companies that take their environmental responsibilities seriously realize that
by reducing in-house waste and packaging costs, minimizing toxic releases, and
increasing the use of recycling, they can generate substantial cost savings, and
are able to foster better relations not only with the communities they operate
in but with the public at large.
We have positive news to report on a number of the Fund's core holdings. Sun
Microsystems recently received the EPA's "Energy Star Office Equipment Partner
of the Year Award" for promoting the importance of energy conservation
throughout the company. BankAmerica, one of the Fund's largest holdings for some
time, has signed the Coalition for Environmentally Responsible Economies (CERES)
principles. On the diversity front, two of the companies currently held in the
Fund's portfolio, Avon Products and Allstate, won 1997 Catalyst Awards for
initiatives that underscore their commitment to the promotion and advancement of
women.
OUTLOOK
Currently, the outlook for the stock market appears to be positive. Lower
interest rates, modest economic growth, no evident threat of inflation, and
continued money flows into equity mutual funds bode well for the market.
However, somewhat pricey valuations and whispers of potential reaccelerating
economic growth temper our enthusiasm in the short term. Yet, the overall
fundamentals appear to be strong.
Sincerely,
Maceo K. Sloan Eric Steedman

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1--Significant Accounting Policies:
Dreyfus Socially Responsible Growth Fund, Inc. (the "Fund") is registered
under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Act") as a diversified open-end
management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to provide
capital growth through equity investments in companies that not only meet
traditional investment standards but which also show evidence that they conduct
their business in a manner that contributes to the enhancement of the quality of
life in America. The Fund is intended to be a funding vehicle for variable
annuity contracts and variable life insurance policies to be offered by the
separate accounts of life insurance companies. The Dreyfus Corporation
("Dreyfus") serves as the Fund's investment adviser. Dreyfus is a direct
subsidiary of Mellon Bank, N.A. ("Mellon"). NCM Capital Management Group, Inc.
("NCM") serves as the Fund's sub-investment adviser. Premier Mutual Fund
Services, Inc. is the distributor of the Fund's shares, which are sold without a
sales charge.
The Fund's financial statements are prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles which may require the use of management estimates
and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities are valued at the last
sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily
traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market. Securities
not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for
which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent
bid and asked prices. Bid price is used when no asked price is available.
(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are
recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities
transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is
recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where
applicable, amortization of discount on investments, is recognized on the
accrual basis.
(c) Dividends to shareholders: Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Dividends from investment income-net and dividends from net realized capital
gain are normally declared and paid annually, but the Fund may make
distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code. To the extent that net realized
capital gain can be offset by capital loss carryovers, if any, it is the policy
of the Fund not to distribute such gain.
(d) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify
as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best
interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of
sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal income and excise taxes.
NOTE 2--Bank Line of Credit:
The Fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $600 million
redemption credit facility ("Facility") to be utilized for temporary or
emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection
therewith, the Fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of
the Facility. Interest is charged to the Fund at rates based on prevailing
market rates in effect at the time of borrowings. For the period ended June 30,
1997, the Fund did not borrow under the Facility.
