Dear Shareholder:



We are pleased to provide the semi-annual report for
Managed Assets Trust, High
Yield Bond Trust, Capital Appreciation Fund, Cash Income
Trust and The Travelers
Series Trust (U.S. Government Securities, Social Awareness
Stock and Utilities
Portfolios) for the period ended June 30, 1997. Please
note that the
commentaries for The Travelers Series Trust begin on page
35 of this report. In
this letter, we briefly discuss general economic and
market conditions. In
addition, more detailed comparisons showing the growth of
a hypothetical $10,000
invested in each Trust or Portfolio since its inception
date can be found in
this report. A more detailed summary of performance and
current holdings for
each Trust or Portfolio can be found in the appropriate
sections that follow.

ECONOMIC REVIEW AND OUTLOOK

Economic activity in the first quarter of 1997 showed
surprising strength as
real Gross Domestic Product ("GDP") growth rose well above
5%. Despite the
unexpected strength in the economy and a decline in
unemployment to about 5%,
reported inflation remained low. However, the stronger
U.S. economy, reflected
in both a tight labor market and a high capacity
utilization rate, sparked
concerns about rising future inflation and prompted an
increasingly vigilant
Federal Reserve Board ("Fed") to raise the federal-funds
rate by 25 basis points
(0.25%) on March 25, 1997. (The federal-funds rate is the
interest rate banks
charge each other for overnight loans and is a closely
watched indicator of the
direction of interest rates.) Concerns of higher interest
rates triggered a
correction in both the stock and bond markets at the end
of the first quarter of
1997.

The key economic news in the second quarter of 1997 was a
distinct slowdown in
economic growth and surprisingly low inflation. Both stock
and bond market
investors drew relief from these developments as the
prospects of further Fed
tightening receded. Interest rates fell from above 7% to
6.8% by the end of the
second quarter of 1997 and the stock market began a
furious rally that saw stock
prices rise by almost 20%.

The second quarter of 1997 began with a singular focus on
the future direction
of Fed action. After an increase of 25 basis points in the
federal-funds rate in
late March on the heels of strong economic growth in the
first quarter, it was
considered quite likely that rates would rise during the
second quarter. The
prospect of higher rates created turmoil within the U.S.
capital markets and
stocks, in particular, were hit hard in early April.
Economic data released in
early May provided mounting evidence of a slower economy
and low inflation.
Retail sales for April were soft and producer prices
showed a dramatic decline
of 0.4%. The consensus forecast for second quarter real
economic growth has now
dropped below 2%.

The inflation trend in recent months has been nothing
short of remarkable,
especially in light of the low unemployment rate and high
capacity utilization
rates in the U.S. economy. The consumer price deflator,
which is considered to
be a better inflation measure than the consumer price
index ("CPI"), fell to a
30-year low in May at an annual rate of 1.6%. Gains in
average hourly wages, a
closely monitored signal of wage inflation, have slowed
from 4.1% to 3.5%.
Commodity price indexes are declining, oil prices are
falling and the price of
gold is now below $320, its lowest level in five years. In
other words,
inflation just does not appear to be an issue at this
point.

The biggest contributing factor in the demise of inflation
appears to be the
significant gains in productivity achieved over the last
few years. It is widely
acknowledged that conventional measures of productivity
gains are being
understated and, under that scenario, lower-than-expected
inflation may be
explained by higher-than-expected productivity gains.
Several other factors also
suggest that the current disinflationary trend is likely
to be both secular and
global in nature. These include a high level of
disinflation in the growing
technology sector, significant government downsizing and
severe global
competition.

The second quarter rally in the stock and bond markets
suggests that investors
have reduced their inflation expectations and,
consequently, the likelihood of
further Fed tightening. In our view, the biggest risk to
the presently benign
investment climate looms on the economic landscape. A
resurgence of economic
growth in the second half of the year may prompt the Fed
to act yet again on a
preemptive basis to choke off inflationary pressures.
Strong retail sales may
well hold the key to a reacceleration in third quarter
economic growth. The
boost in consumer spending could come from any one of
several sources: increased
refinancing activity, the wealth effect of a stronger
stock market, record
levels of consumer confidence and the recent strong growth
in real disposable
personal income.

While the relatively high real yield levels in the bond
market suggests that
bond investors still remain wary of an increase in
inflation, we think the stock
market is clearly vulnerable to such a development.

FIXED INCOME COMMENTARY

Bond prices also rose higher in the second quarter. The
Lehman Long
Government/Corporate Index performed the best with a gain
of 5.5% as interest
rates fell below 7%. The yield curve became flatter as the
spread between long-
and short-term bonds narrowed by 0.20% in the quarter.

Stronger growth with low inflation has been good for bonds
as it has reduced
government financing needs. Low inflation coupled with a
declining budget
deficit provides positive support for the bond market.
Going forward, the
bullish case for bonds can be attributed to a reduced
budget deficit and the
absence of inflation in final goods pricing. While wages
may be drifting higher,
so are productivity gains due to technological
improvements. At the same time,
global competition and an 8.5% year-to-date increase in
the trade weighted
dollar should prevent higher product inflation. Year-over
year Producer Price
Index ("PPI") statistics show no signs of price pressures,
and CPI has been at a
2.0% to 2.5% rate for the past few years. Additionally,
the CPI is generally
agreed to be overstated and the government may be in the
process of gradually
reducing this upward basis.

The key question for the markets will be the pace of
growth in the second half
of the year and how the bond market and Fed react to it.
We do not believe that
growth necessarily leads to further inflation on the
finished goods side. As
long as wage growth is offset by productivity increases,
higher growth with low
unemployment does not have to lead to a rise in inflation.
However there is
still much debate on what the market and the Fed think
about the relationship
between economic growth and inflation. If growth is above
3%, the market may
still expect higher inflation or the Fed may raise rates
on a preemptive basis.

Within the fixed income markets, spreads remain tight and
there is a high level
of complacency. Within the corporate market, spreads
remain compressed between
different quality levels and "riskier" borrowers have
access to an abundance of
capital. This condition is unlikely to change in the near
term as good economic
growth has reduced the stress on weaker credits. High
issues of Collateralized
Bond Obligations ("CBO") have created a new class of buyer
for lower quality
issues, one that is more concerned with default likelihood
rather than relative
pricing. Mortgage-backed spreads have tightened as market
volatility has been
low and prepayments have been within their predicted
range. Mortgage spreads are
unlikely to widen much as long as government agencies such
as Federal National
Mortgage Association ("FNMA") and Federal Home Loan
Mortgage Corporation
("FHLMC") are quick to arbitrage any spread widening.
Corporate spreads are
likely to take their cues from the high yield and equity
markets. As long as
these remain well bid for, high quality spreads should
remain firm.
Historically, October has been a month when spreads have
become wider and we
would therefore, not be surprised to see some modest
pressure on spreads as the
fourth quarter begins.

EQUITY COMMENTARY

The U.S. stock market continues to be in one of the
strongest bull market runs
ever. Stock prices have now doubled over the last two and
a half years and
almost tripled in the last five years in an ideal
investment climate of solid
economic growth, low inflation and strong corporate
profits growth.

The year 1997 began on a positive note for the stock
market. Fueled by strong
fourth quarter earnings and robust money flows into mutual
funds, the Standard &
Poor's 500 Composite Stock Index ("S&P 500") gained over
7% in January and
February, and continued to move to new highs in early
March. However, as
evidence of unexpectedly robust economic growth came to
hand, investors became
increasingly concerned about the risk of higher inflation
and interest rates.
The Fed raised short-term rates in March, and long-term
Treasury bond yields
moved back over the psychologically important 7% level.

The upward spike in interest rates triggered a sharp sell
off in the stock
market during the last week of March, erasing most of the
market's year-to-date
gains. For the entire first quarter, the S&P 500 edged out
a 2.7% gain with
dividends. Small capitalization issues generally fared
worse. During the first
three months of 1997, the Russell 2000 Stock Index
declined 5.5% in value.

The second quarter of 1997 was the best quarter for the
U.S. stock market in
over ten years. The stock market rally was broad in nature
lifting most stocks
and indexes to record high levels. The S&P 500 soared by
17.44% in the second
quarter, the Russell 2000 Index rose 16.2% and the Nasdaq
Composite Index
performed even better with a gain of 18.0%. (The S&P 500
is an unmanaged
capitalization-weighted index of 500 widely held common
stocks. The Russell 2000
Index is made up of 2,000 smaller-capitalized U.S.-based
companies whose common
stocks trade on either the New York, American or Nasdaq
stock exchanges. The
Nasdaq Composite Index is a capitalization-weighted index
of all stocks which
trade on Nasdaq.)

---------------------------
As noted, the stock market got off to a rocky start in
April as the effects of
the Fed rate hike from late March rippled through the
capital markets. The S&P
500 sold off a low of 733 and the Dow Jones Industrial
Average retreated to
almost 6300 on April 14, 1997, as investors focused on the
likelihood of higher
rates. The investor mood swing to optimism was triggered
by the release of solid
first quarter earnings in April and the market rally began
in real earnest when
inflation reports in early May showed a significant
decline in producer and
consumer prices.

First quarter 1997 corporate earnings were again ahead of
expectations. The
final tally on the earnings scorecard showed that 54% of
all companies reported
earnings in excess of expectations while 31% of companies
disappointed relative
to the consensus. The preponderance of positive earnings
surprises continues a
trend which now extends to 17 consecutive quarters and is
unprecedented in terms
of duration or magnitude. Moreover, the agreement on a
balanced budget in
Washington and the prospects of a lower capital gains tax
added further fuel to
the stock market rally in the middle of the quarter. The
flood of liquidity into
the market continued unabated in the second quarter and
put more buying pressure
on stocks.

There are no indications right now to suggest that
earnings are at any great
risk in the near term. The earnings preannouncement season
at the end of the
quarter, when companies typically confess to upcoming
earnings shortfalls, was
uneventful and early second quarter earnings seem to be
quite strong.

There are no visible signs on the horizon that inflation
is
likely to flare up
in the near future. The employment cost index and hourly
wage gains are likely
to be the most closely monitored gauges of expected
inflation. We believe the
biggest risk on the interest rate front lies in a stronger
than-expected economy
in the second half. In fact, the Fed may be inclined to
respond to strong
economic data even before it begins to affect inflation
measures.

We remain cautious on the U.S. stock market. With all the
good news already
reflected in stock prices, the stock market has virtually
no margin for error.
We suspect that any unpleasant surprise will be enough
provocation to trigger a
correction. The market will focus on earnings or interest
rates for any negative
developments but any wild card surprise such as an oil
price shock could mean
trouble. The positive long-term trends toward low
inflation and lower interest
rates should, however, contain the downside in the stock
market and limit any
correction to the traditional 10% to 15% range from prior
highs.

Foreign stock markets also enjoyed a strong second quarter
with the Morgan
Stanley Capital International Europe Australia Far East
index ("MSCI EAFE")
rising by 13.0% in U.S. dollar terms. (The MSCI EAFE Index
consists of the
equity total returns for Europe, Australia, New Zealand
and the Far East.) The
bull market in global stocks also saw the Latin America
index advance by 22.5%
in the second quarter while the emerging markets index
gained 8.6% in U.S.
dollar terms.

MANAGED ASSETS TRUST

Managed Assets Trust gained 10.9% in the second quarter of
1997 while the 60/40%
S&P 500/Lehman Government/Corporate Index advanced by
11.8%. For the first half
of 1997, Managed Assets Trust enjoyed a total return of
11.82%.

The first half of 1997 provided stock market investors
with a glimpse of the
"best of all worlds" scenario, combining solid economic
growth, the lowest level
of inflation seen in a decade, a balanced budget agreement
out of Washington,
the promise of lower capital gains taxes, strong corporate
earnings growth,
merger activity rivaling the late 1980s and an abundance
of liquidity.

As a result, the U.S. stock market remains in one of the
strongest bull market
runs ever. The second quarter, in particular, was the best
quarter for the U.S.
stock market in over ten years. Virtually all sectors of
the stock market
reached new highs in the first half of 1997.

The U.S. bond market also rose higher in the second
quarter. The Lehman
Long-Term Bond Index performed the best with a gain of
5.5% as interest rates
fell below 7% in the second quarter. The yield curve
became flatter as the
spread between long-and short-term bonds narrowed by 20
basis points in the
quarter.

The dominant theme in the U.S. capital markets in the
second quarter was the
disappearing act staged by inflation. The remarkable good
news on the inflation
front finally seemed to get bond investors' attention as
the yield on long-term
bonds began to move lower. Stock market investors, on the
other hand, simply
accelerated their frenzied rush into stocks which
continues to drive valuations
higher.

The stock and bond markets have offered an interesting
contrast in terms of
their somewhat asymmetrical views on future inflation.
Even with a drop in
interest rates to 6.8% at the end of June, the bond market
is still fairly
cautious in terms of inflation expectations and future Fed
actions. It can well
be argued that inflation has been running close to 2% over
the last

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE TRAVELERS VARIABLE PRODUCTS
FUNDS ----------------------------------------------------
---------------------------
several months and yet the bond market has consistently
priced real rates at
fairly high levels. Real federal funds rates have been
around 3.3% and real long
term rates have been at about 4.7%, levels considerably
higher than the
historical average. To put these interest rates in
perspective, real Fed funds
rates peaked at 3.3% during the tightening monetary period
in 1987 whereas they
have traded at those levels for several months now.

The bond market, therefore, has been unwilling to give
ground to inflation and
has remained skeptical about the sustainability of this
low inflation. The
conservative reaction in the bond market leaves it better
prepared to deal with
an inflation shock or further Fed tightening.

The stock market has been far more enthusiastic in its
reaction to low
inflation. For that matter, stocks have been quick to
impound into prices all
the good news on the economic and earnings front as well.
Unlike the bond
market, stock prices have quickly adjusted to good news as
soon as it has become
available. The resulting high valuation levels in the
stock market now leave it
vulnerable to any disappointment on either the inflation
or earnings front.

As a result of this disparate investor behavior, the stock
market has been able
to far outperform the bond market over the last 18 months.
The return to risk
reward for stock investors has been even more favorable as
stock market
volatility has remained unusually low over the same
period.

Valuations in the stock market continue to be stretched.
The 12-month forward
P/E multiple on the S&P 500 now stands at 18.4 times which
is a record high over
the last 25 years. By most valuation measures, we believe
the market is between
10% and 15% overvalued.

We remain cautious on the U.S. stock market. With all good
news already
reflected in stock prices, the stock market has virtually
no margin for error.
We suspect that any unpleasant surprise will be enough
provocation to trigger a
correction. As we discussed earlier, the bond market has
refrained from building
up a similar level of excess and, therefore, offers better
value than stocks at
this point. We recommend a small underweight position in
U.S. stocks at this
point.

HIGH YIELD BOND TRUST

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the High Yield
Bond Trust had a total
return of 8.13%. The Portfolio began the second quarter of
1997 with a high cash
balance comprising roughly 24% of the Portfolio. While the
Portfolio performed
well in the second quarter of 1997, its high cash position
penalized its
performance as the high yield bond market rallied. The
following issues had a
positive impact on the Portfolio's performance: Diamond
Cable, Florist
Transworld, Food 4 Less, ICF Kaiser, Syratech, SFX
Broadcasting and United
International Holdings.

The high yield bond market recovered from its modest
return of 1.47% in the
first quarter of 1997 to post a solid 4.32% for the second
quarter of 1997.
Lower-quality high yield bonds outperformed the BB-sector
as
the sound economic
outlook lifted the riskier credit issues over the near
term.

The high yield bond market has continued to rally on
strong demand from both new
investors and mutual funds. Given the market's strong
condition, we have seen a
record amount of new high yield bond issuance (more than
$60 billion) during the
first six months of this year. Moreover, during the past
twelve months there has
been a meaningful increase in the number of structured
transactions
incorporating high yield securities that has caused the
demand for high yield
bonds to rise even more. In the past two years, a number
of institutions,
particularly insurance companies, have begun to create
collateralized bond
obligations (CBOs) that use high yield securities as
collateral. Given the
intense demand on the part of many investors for current
yield the past year has
resulted in a significant increase in the creation of
CBOs. The amount of total
capital invested in the high yield bond market has risen
to record levels.

CAPITAL APPRECIATION FUND

In the second quarter, stocks registered their best
performance since the first
quarter of 1987. Large stocks remained the clear market
leaders, but smaller
companies also performed well, which made for a much
healthier overall market.
The S&P 500 gained 17.44% for the quarter. For the six
months ended June 30,
1997, the Fund generated a total return of 16.88% versus
the 20.6% for the S&P
500 over the same period.

We continue to enjoy excellent economic conditions, with
little inflation, low
interest rates and increasing productivity. In sum, it is
still a very good
environment for financial assets. Raw materials as well as
labor are plentiful
internationally, which brought about deflation in many
core commodity prices as
the quarter ended -- copper, aluminum, grains and gold all
declined
significantly -- and continues to restrain inflationary
wage pressures. The
Fed's decision not to raise interest rates at both its May
and July meetings was
a further endorsement of the economy's basic health and
stability. Finally, the
budget process in Washington, D.C. is providing an
encouraging backdrop for
financial markets.

This quarter we experienced substantial gains in many of
our holdings, despite
some lingering cross-currents in technology as the quarter
began, when it proved
difficult to sort out the prospects for a few large
technology positions. In
spite of this ebb and flow, we posted good returns with
Microsoft Corp. and
Lucent Technologies. Microsoft, the dominant presence in
PC and network
operating systems, is beginning another upgrade cycle for
its NT, Office and
Windows products. Earnings are very consistent, not only
due to product demand
but also because Microsoft employs conservative accounting
methods. Lucent has
made a number of changes aimed at producing more
consistent revenues and
earnings, including restructuring the pay of its sales
force, cutting sales and
administrative expenses, and joint venturing with Philips
Electronics to sell
Lucent's electronic consumer goods (primarily cellular
telephones) under the
Philips name.

Dell Computer also appreciated nicely. Dell is clearly the
best operator in the
PC business. Inventory turnover averages only 12 days, and
the company has
remained focused on the commercial PC market, where demand
for new processors
and other upgrades is still strong. Dell is also just
getting started in the
high-margin server market. Dell's operating model is so
effective that Compaq
Computer, the largest PC retailer in the industry,
recently announced that it
wants to copy the Dell model, and tried to purchase
Gateway 2000 in order to
enter the direct order PC business, where Dell has been
very successful.

Our drug stocks also produced good returns this quarter.
Warner-Lambert's two
new drugs, Lipitor, which reduces cholesterol, and
Rezulin, for diabetes, have
been well received. Lipitor, which was introduced
approximately six months ago,
has already captured 21% of a highly competitive market.
Eli Lilly's Zyprexa,
for the treatment of schizophrenia, and Reopro, which
treats cardiovascular
disease, are selling well.

Two core growth companies, FNMA and First Data, also
appreciated. FNMA is
repurchasing stock and continues to post improved earnings
despite mediocre loan
growth. Credit card transaction processor First Data came
under pressure earlier
in the year on concerns over a potential slowdown in
credit
card use. However,
these fears were overblown, and the stock gained almost
30%.

Finally, two new holdings, Diamond Offshore Drilling and
Delta and Pine Land,
were up nicely. Delta and Pine has developed a new insect
resistant cotton seed
that is just beginning to penetrate the market. Diamond
Offshore is the leading
provider of deep-water drilling equipment. Exploration
budgets at the major oil
companies are at an all-time high, demand for Diamond
Offshore's products is
excellent and day rates are up. The company's fixed costs
are stable, which
gives it huge pricing leverage as more equipment goes into
the field.

Nike and Texas Instruments were sold at a profit during
the quarter. The revenue
growth rate slowed at Nike, and DRAM demand declined at
Texas Instruments.
Halliburton (energy company) was let go at a loss, due to
concerns about the
strength of its engineering and construction business.

Going forward, we are still very optimistic about the
equity markets. Although
valuations are rich in some stocks, healthy earnings
prospects and low interest
rates should support higher prices. In addition, our
Treasury yields also remain
high compared to international rates, making them
attractive to foreign
investors. As long as economic growth is moderate and
inflation is low, there
should be room for interest rates to come down. If this
proves to be the case,
financial assets will continue to benefit.

CASH INCOME TRUST

Cash Income Trust seeks to provide shareholders with high
current income from
short-term money market instruments while emphasizing
preservation of capital
and maintaining a high degree of liquidity. Cash Income
Trust pursues this
objective by investing in securities maturing in one year
or less.

For the six months ended June 30, 1997, Cash Income Trust
generated an effective
yield of 4.84% and as of June 30, 1997 had an average
maturity of 16 days. Cash
Income Trust continues to invest primarily in U.S.
Treasuries and government
agency securities. This investment strategy has provided
Cash Income Trust with
safety, liquidity and stability.

You should be aware that your investment in the Cash

----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------
 BOND RATINGS
All ratings are by Standard & Poor's Rating Service
("Standard & Poor's"),
except that those identified by an asterisk (*) are rated
by Moody's Investors
Service, Inc. ("Moodys"). The definitions of the
applicable rating symbols are
set forth below:

Standard & Poor's -- Rating from "AA" to "C" may be
modified by the addition of
a plus (+) or a minus (-) sign to show relative standings
within the major
rating categories.

<TABLE>
<S>             <C>  <C>
AAA             --   Debt rated "AAA" has the highest
rating
assigned by Standard & Poor's. Capacity to
                     pay interest and repay principal is
extremely strong.
AA              --   Debt rated "AA" has a very strong
capacity to pay interest and repay principal and
                     differs from the highest rated issue
only in a small degree.
A               --   Debt rated "A" has a strong capacity
to
pay interest and repay principal although
                     it is somewhat more susceptible to
the adverse effects of changes in circumstances
                     and economic conditions than debt in
higher rated categories.
BBB             --   Debt rated "BBB" are regarded as
having
an adequate capacity to pay interest and
                     repay principal. Whereas they
normally exhibit adequate protection parameters,
                     adverse economic conditions or
changing circumstances are more likely to lead to a
                     weakened capacity to pay interest and
repay principal for bonds in this category
                     than for bonds in higher rated
categories.
BB, B and CCC   --   Debt rated "BB" and "B" are regarded,
on balance, as predominantly speculative with
                     respect to capacity to pay interest
and repay principal in accordance with the
                     terms of the obligation. "BB"
represents a lower degree of speculation than "B",
                     and "CCC" the highest degree of
speculation. While such bonds will likely have some
                     quality and protective
                     characteristics,
these are outweighed by large uncertainties
                     or major risk exposures to adverse
conditions.
C               --   The rating "C" is reserved for income
bonds on which no interest is being paid.
D               --   Debt rated "D" are in default, and
payment of interest and/or repayment of
                     principal is in arrears.
</TABLE>

Moody's -- Numerical modifiers 1, 2, and 3 may be applied
to each generic rating
from "Aa" to "C", where 1 is the highest and 3 the lowest
rating within its
generic category.

<TABLE>
<S>             <C>  <C>
Aaa             --   Bonds that are rated "Aaa" are judged
to be of the best quality. They carry the
                     smallest degree of investment fisk
and are generally referred to as "gilt edge."
                     Interest payments are protected by a
large or by an exceptionally stable margin and
                     principal is secure. While the
various protective elements are likely to change,
                     such changes as can be visualized are
most unlikely to impair the fundamentally
                     strong position of such issues.
Aa              --   Bonds that are rated "Aa" are judged
to
be of high quality by all standards.
                     Together with the "Aaa" group they
comprise what are generally known as high grade
                     bonds. They are rated lower than the
best bonds because margins of protection may
                     not be as large as in "Aaa"
securities or fluctuation of protective elements may be
                     of greater amplitude or there may be
other elements present which make the
                     long-term risks appear somewhat
larger than in "Aaa" securities.
A               --   Bonds that are rated "A" possess many
favorable investment attributes and are to be
                     considered as upper medium grade
obligations. Factors giving security to principal
                     and interest are considered adequate
but elements may be present which suggest a
                     susceptibility to impairment some
time in the future.
Baa             --   Bonds that are rated "Baa" are
considered to be medium grade obligations; that is,
                     they are neither highly protected nor
poorly secured. Interest payment and
                     principal security appear adequate
for the present but certain protective elements
                     may be lacking or may be
characteristically unreliable over any great length of
                     time. These bonds lack outstanding
investment characteristics and may have
                     speculative characteristics as well.
Ba              --   Bonds that are rated "Ba" are judged
to
have speculative elements; their future
                     cannot be considered as well assured.
Often the protection of interest and
                     principal payments may be very
moderate and thereby not well safeguarded during
                     both good and bad times over the
future. Uncertainty of position characterizes
                     bonds in this class.
B               --   Bonds that are rated "B" generally
lack
characteristics of desirable investments.
                     Assurance of interest and principal
payments or of maintenance of other terms of
                     the contract over any long period of
time may be small.
Caa             --   Bonds that are rated "Caa" are of
poor
standing. These issues may be in default, or
                     present elements of danger may exist
with respect to principal or interest.
Ca              --   Bonds that are rated "Ca" represent
obligations which are speculative in a high
                     degree. Such issues are often in
default or have other marked shortcomings.
C               --   Bonds that are rated "C" are the
lowest
rated class of bonds, and issues so rated
                     can be regarded as having extremely
poor prospects of ever attaining any real
                   investment standing.
NR              --   Indicates that the bond is not rated
by
Standard & Poor's or Moody's.

 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

     1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The Managed Assets Trust, High Yield Bond Trust,
Capital Appreciation Fund
and Cash Income Trust (collectively, "Fund(s)") are each a
Massachusetts
business trust registered under the Investment Company Act
of 1940, as amended,
as diversified, open-end management investment companies.
Shares of the Funds
are offered only to insurance company separate accounts
that fund certain
variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts.

     The significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Funds are:
(a) security transactions are accounted for on trade date;
(b) securities traded
on national securities markets are valued at the closing
prices on such markets;
securities for which no sales price were reported and U.S.
government and agency
obligations are valued at the mean between the last
reported bid and asked
prices or on the basis of quotations received from
reputable brokers or other
recognized sources; (c) securities maturing within 60 days
are valued at cost
plus accreted discount and, or minus amortized premium,
which approximates
market value; (d) securities that have a maturity of 60
days or more are valued
at prices based on market quotations for securities of
similar type, yield and
maturity; (e) interest income, adjusted for amortization
of premium and
accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis
and dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date; foreign dividends are
recorded on the
ex-dividend date or as soon as practical after the Fund
determines the existence
of a dividend declaration after exercising reasonable due
diligence; (f) gains
or losses on the sale of securities are calculated by
using the specific
identification method; (g) dividends and distributions to
shareholders are
recorded on the ex-dividend date; (h) the accounting
records of the Fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. All assets and liabilities
denominated in foreign
currencies are translated into U.S. dollars on the date of
valuation. Purchases
and sales of securities and income and expenses are
translated at the rate of
exchange quoted on the respective date that such
transactions are recorded.
Differences between income and expense amounts recorded
and collected or paid
are adjusted when reported by the custodian; (i) the
character of income and
gains to be distributed are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations
which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. At December 31,
1996, reclassifications were made to the capital accounts
of the High Yield Bond
Trust, Capital Appreciation Fund and Cash Income Trust to
reflect permanent
book/tax differences and income and gains available for
distributions under
income tax regulations. Accordingly, for the High Yield
Bond Trust a portion of
accumulated net realized loss amounting to $1,893,310 was
reclassified to
paid-in capital. Net investment income, net realized gains
and net assets were
not affected by this change; (j) the Funds intend to
comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, pertaining to
regulated investment companies and to make distributions
of taxable income
sufficient to relieve it from substantially all Federal
income and excise taxes;
and (k) estimates and assumptions are required to be made
regarding assets,
liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from
operations when financial
statements are prepared. Changes in the economic
environment, financial markets
and any other parameters used in determining these
estimates could cause actual
results to differ.

     2.  DIVIDENDS
     Cash Income Trust declares and records a dividend
of substantially all of
its net investment income on each business day. Such
dividends are paid or
reinvested on the payable date.

     3.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER
TRANSACTIONS

   Travelers Asset Management International Corporation
("TAMIC"), an indirect
wholly owned subsidiary of Travelers Group Inc., acts as
investment manager and
advisor to the Managed Assets Trust ("MAT"), High Yield
Bond Trust ("HYBT"),
Capital Appreciation Fund ("CAF") and Cash Income Trust
("CIT"). MAT, CAF and
CIT pay TAMIC an investment management and advisory fee
calculated at the annual
rate of 0.50%, 0.75% and 0.3233%, respectively of its
average daily net assets.
HYBT pays TAMIC an investment management and advisory fee
calculated at an
annual rate of: 0.50% on the first $50,000,000, 0.40% on
the next $100,000,000,
0.30% on the next $100,000,000 and 0.25% on the amount
over $250,000,000 of its
average daily net assets. This fee is calculated daily and
paid monthly.

   TAMIC has a sub-advisory agreement with The Travelers
Investment Management
Company, Inc. ("TIMCO"), an indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of Travelers Group
Inc. Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement, TIMCO is
responsible for the
day-to-day portfolio operations and investment decisions
for MAT. As a result,
TAMIC pays TIMCO, as sub-advisor, 0.25% of the average
daily net assets of MAT.

    TIMCO also has a sub-advisory agreement with Janus
Capital Corporation
("Janus"). Pursuant to the sub-advisory agreement, Janus
is responsible for the
day-to-day portfolio operations and investment decisions
for CAF. As a result,
TIMCO pays Janus, as sub-advisor, 0.55% of the average
daily net assets of CAF.

 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

    Travelers Insurance Company ("Travelers Insurance")
acts as administrator
to the Funds. The Funds pay Travelers Insurance an
administration fee calculated
at an annual rate of 0.06% of its average daily net
assets. Travelers Insurance
has entered into a sub-administrative services agreement
with Smith Barney
Mutual Funds Management Inc. ("SBMFM"), a subsidiary of
Smith Barney Holdings
Inc. ("SBH"). Travelers Insurance pays SBMFM, as sub
administrator, a fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.06% for the average
daily net assets of each
Fund. This fee is calculated daily and paid monthly.

     SB received brokerage commissions of $3,530 from
affiliated brokers.

     One Trustee and all officers of the Funds are
employees of Travelers Group
Inc., or its subsidiaries.

     4.  INVESTMENTS

      During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the

and proceeds from sales of investments (including

     5.  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS

     The Funds purchase (and its custodian takes
possession of) U.S. Government
securities from banks and securities dealers subject to
agreements to resell the
securities to the sellers at a future date (generally, the
next business day) at
an agreed-upon higher repurchase price. The Funds require
continual maintenance
of the market value of the collateral in amounts at least
equal to 102% of the
repurchase price.

     6.  FUTURES CONTRACTS

     Initial margin deposits made upon entering into
futures contracts are
recognized as assets. The initial margin is segregated by
the custodian and is
noted in the schedule of investments. During the period
the futures contract is
open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized
as unrealized gains or
losses by "marking-to-market" on a daily basis to reflect
the market value of
the contract at the end of each day's trading. Variation
margin payments are
made or received and recognized as assets due from or
liabilities due to broker,
depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are
incurred. When the
contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or
loss equal to the
difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the
closing transactions and
the Funds' basis in the contract. The Funds bear the
market risk that arises
from changes in the value of the financial instruments and
securities indices
(futures contracts) and the credit risk should a
counterparty fail to perform
under such contracts.

   At June 30, 1997, MAT had sold 25 financial futures
contracts on the
Standard & Poor's 500 Index expiring in September 1997.
The basis value of such
contracts was $11,202,225. The market value of such
contracts on June 30, 1997
was $11,128,125, thereby resulting in an unrealized gain
of
$74,100.

----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

     7.  OPTIONS CONTRACTS

     Premiums paid when put or call options are purchased
by the Funds,
represent investments, which are "marked-to-market" daily.
When a purchased
option expires, the Funds realize a loss in the amount of
the premium paid. When
the Funds enter into closing sales transactions, the Funds
realize a gain or
loss depending on whether the proceeds from the closing
sales transaction are
greater or less than the premium paid for the option. When
the Funds exercise a
put option, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale
of the underlying
security and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased
by the premium
originally paid. When the Funds exercise a call option,
the cost of the security
which the Funds purchase upon exercise will be increased
by the premium
originally paid.

   As of June 30, 1997, the Funds had no open purchased
call or put options
contracts.

     8.  CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARD

     At December 31, 1996, HYBT had, for Federal income
tax purposes,
approximately $4,751,000 of capital loss carryforwards
available to offset
future capital gains. To the extent that these
carryforward losses can be used
to offset realized capital gains, it is probable that such
gains will not be
distributed. The amount and expiration of the
carryforwards are indicated below.
Expiration occurs on December 31 of the year indicated:

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE TRAVELERS SERIES TRUST --------
----------------------------------------------------------
-------------


U.S. GOVERNMENT SECURITIES PORTFOLIO


For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the U.S.
Government Securities Portfolio
had a total return of 3.13%. As of June 30, 1997 the
composition of assets was
46% in mortgage-backed securities, 40% in U.S. Treasuries,
11.5% in U.S. agency
securities and 2.5% in cash.

The second quarter came on the heels of a Federal Reserve
Board ("Fed")
tightening on March 25, 1997. By the end of the first
quarter of 1997, the yield
on the 30-year U.S. Treasury bond rose to 7.10%. Market
expectations of another
Fed move at the May meeting kept interest rates high for
the
first half of the
quarter, diminishing only after negative retail sales in
April were reported in
the middle of May. By the time the quarter had ended,
rates were essentially at
the levels very close to where the year began.

Corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities did better
than U.S. Treasuries
by a small margin. In the U.S. government securities
market, agency debentures
(i.e., general debt obligations backed only by the
integrity of the borrower and
documented by an agreement called an indenture) fared
marginally better than
other U.S. Treasuries because of their slight yield
advantage.

The Portfolio's exposure to GNMA adjustable rate mortgage
securities helped its
performance during the reporting period. Going forward, we
expect to maintain a
fairly neutral duration in the Portfolio but we intend to
maintain its
overweighting in mortgage-backed securities.

Solid gains in jobs and income, advancing financial
markets and high levels of
consumer confidence have created ideal conditions for
possibly greater consumer
spending. These ideal conditions may in turn cause labor
markets to tighten and
trigger a shift in the Fed's monetary policy. In our view,
the timing and
direction of the next Fed move is uncertain and will only
take place when there
are clearer indications about the strength of the U.S.
economy.

SOCIAL AWARENESS STOCK PORTFOLIO

The Social Awareness Stock Portfolio seeks high total
return by investing in the
equity securities of issuers who demonstrate a positive
awareness of their
impact on the society in which they operate. For the six
months ended June 30,
1997, the Portfolio generated a total return of 16.62%. As
of June 30, 1997, the
Portfolio owned 70 stocks, with an overweighting in
financial, technology and
transportation issues. The stock focus in the Portfolio is
on middle- to
large-sized companies with an average market
capitalization of $29.5 billion.

Although a preference for strong, large-capitalization
stocks still persists,
the stock market continues to run on all cylinders with
better breadth across
the population of stocks. We have resisted the temptation
to simply equate
higher stock prices with excessive speculation. With an
economy characterized by
low inflation, positive interest rates and strong profits
and cash flows, we
believe that the long-term values behind this market
remain solid.
On a short-term momentum basis, however, conditions are
almost too good and
prices are reaching extreme levels. In other words, there
aren't many real
market laggards and most stocks are participating in
varying degrees in the
market's historic advance. The first half market gains
were even more
significant when you consider that interest rates remained
approximately flat,
and earnings grew on the order of about 10%. This has made
it a bit more
difficult to find inexpensive values with our disciplined
investment strategy.

During the six months under review, health care,
financial, high technology and
capital goods were the market sectors that performed best.
At the other extreme
were the infrastructure sectors like utilities,
communications services, basic
materials and energy that were sector laggards. The
Portfolio's sector
weightings at the end of June generally contributed to its
solid performance.

During the reporting period, we sold nine existing stock
positions, reduced one
position, added to 13 existing holdings and bought eight
new issues. The new
names represent a diverse list such American Stores,
Dollar General, Rite-Aid
and Wendy's (consumer retail sector), Beckman Instruments
(medical area), Chase
Manhattan (finance) and Cisco Systems and Motorola
(technology).

UTILITIES PORTFOLIO

The Utilities Portfolio seeks to provide current income
and as a secondary goal,
capital appreciation, by investing at least 25% of its
assets in the utilities
industry. For the six months ended June 30, 1997, the
Utilities Portfolio
generated a total return of 4.17%.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE TRAVELERS SERIES TRUST --------
----------------------------------------------------------
-------------
So far in 1997, favorable economic news, better-than
expected gross domestic
product (GDP), continued low inflation and strong
corporate earnings growth
fueled the U.S. economy and financial markets. (GDP is the
total output of goods
and services.) However, this positive economic
environment, continued to
challenge utility stocks as a whole because of the
uncertainty surrounding
industry restructuring.

The strong equity market, as measured by the Standard and
Poor's 500 Index and
the Dow Jones Industrial Average led by technology and
cyclical issues, provided
investors with investment returns substantially above
historical averages.
Despite this strong performance, the volatility of the
markets increased during
the past six months. In our opinion, this increase in
market volatility has not
deterred investors who continue to avoid more defensive
stocks such as
utilities. As a group, the utilities industry continued to
underperform relative
to the broad-based equity market.

Despite the market's underweighting in the utility
industry and the cloud of
uncertainty caused by deregulation, we remain very
positive on the utility
industry as a whole and anticipate several positive
regulatory decisions both at
the state and federal level in the months ahead. Although
the level of long-term
interest rates continues to be an important influence on a
utility company's
relative performance, we think that improving a company's
competitive position
is a more significant factor in achieving attractive
investment returns. Given
the wide disparity in the performance of different utility
stocks, we believe
that careful stock selection remains key to achieving
superior total return
performance.

With respect to the long-term outlook for utilities, many
states have recently
enacted competitive restructuring proposals. Under these
proposals, power
providers would compete for customers in an open market.
In our view, these
proposals are not only positive compared to many of the
early more punitive
proposals, but essentially provide the local utility the
opportunity to recover
its "stranded costs." (Stranded costs are expenses that
utilities are at risk of
not recovering in a competitive environment.) Stranded
costs, often associated
with expensive nuclear plants, includes any assets or
expenses that, when
recovered through traditional power rates, can cause
utility rates to exceed the
market price of power. Certain states have passed
legislation to permit the
recovery of stranded costs through the issuance of asset
backed bonds.

As full retail competition is established, clearly not all
utilities, whether in
the electric, gas or telecommunications industries, will
be
impacted by
competition to the same extent. Deregulation, while
increasing the business risk
for companies with higher expenses, should provide
opportunities for lower-cost,
well-managed companies. We expect volatility in the
utility industry to persist
as the reduction in regulatory protection proceeds and the
financial markets
differentiate between those companies that are
"competitively blessed," (with
lower cost structures, strong service territory growth and
competitive
management skills), and those companies that are perceived
to be "fundamentally
challenged," (due to the burden of high cost structures,
limited customer growth
and lack of a clear corporate strategy). As noted, the
increasing disparity of
performance within the utility industry has resulted from
a combination of
fundamental factors and competitive uncertainty.

In our opinion, merger and acquisition activity within the
electric utility,
natural gas and telecommunication industry have generally
generated superior
total returns. We anticipate the pace of merger activity
within the utility
industry to increase as state and federal regulatory
proposals are finalized.
Consolidation such as mergers that integrate two
industries, (e.g.,
electric/natural gas) are primarily driven by competitive
concerns. A successful
merger often allows two companies to leverage their
production costs over a
larger customer base.

In an effort to take advantage of better relative market
performance and total
return, we have strategically increased the Portfolio's
emphasis in natural gas
stocks. The natural gas holdings in the Portfolio are
companies that we believe
should deliver solid core earnings growth while at the
same time rapidly growing
their non-regulated businesses. Supporting our confidence
in the natural gas
sector through the end of the 1997 is a positive commodity
price forecast and
solid earning performance for many natural gas companies.

In addition, we continue to increase the Portfolio's
emphasis in the
telecommunications industry. Although not immune to
regulatory concerns, select
companies within the telecommunications industry offer the
Portfolio
diversification and compelling investment opportunities.
Many telecommunications
companies stand to benefit from the integration of long
distance, local, cable
and internet services, as well as the rapid expansion of
global
telecommunications networks.

Our portfolio strategy continues to focus on long-term
growth and current
income. Looking ahead to 1998, deregulation and
competition will continue to
evolve implying both increased volatility and greater
opportunity. We anticipate
that as the competitive regulatory framework takes shape,
issues of market share
and customer satisfaction will replace concerns regarding
transition plans and
rate decreases. The Portfolio maintains its emphasis in
quality, low-cost
companies with a predictable earnings base.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE TRAVELERS SERIES TRUST --------
----------------------------------------------------------
-------------
For the remaining six months of 1997, we expect to
continue the moderate,
sustainable growth in the U.S. economy. We believe
inflation should remain under
control as the Federal Reserve Board appears resolved to
take the necessary
preemptive steps if any signs of inflationary pressures
emerge.

In closing, we thank you for your investment in The
Travelers Series Trust. We
look forward to continuing to help you achieve your
financial goals.

Sincerely,

 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

     1.  SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

     The U.S. Government Securities, Social Awareness Stock
and Utilities
Portfolios (collectively, "Portfolio(s)") are separate
investment portfolios of
The Travelers Series Trust ("Trust"). The Trust is a
Massachusetts business
trust registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended, as a
diversified, open-end management investment company and
consists of these
portfolios and eleven other separate investment portfolios:
Travelers Quality
Bond, Lazard International Stock, MFS Emerging Growth,
Federated High Yield,
Federated Stock, Large Cap, Equity Income, Mid-Cap
Disciplined Equity Fund, Zero
Coupon Bond Fund Portfolio Series 1998, Zero Coupon Bond
Fund Portfolio Series
2000 and Zero Coupon Bond Fund Portfolio Series 2005
Portfolios. Shares of the
Trust are offered only to insurance company separate
accounts that fund certain
variable annuity and variable life insurance contracts. The
financial statements
and financial highlights for the other portfolios are
presented in separate
semi-annual reports.

     The significant accounting policies consistently
followed by the Portfolios
are: (a) security transactions are accounted for on trade
date; (b) securities
traded on national securities markets are valued at the
closing prices on such
markets; securities for which no sales prices were
reported and U.S. Government
and Agency obligations are valued at the mean between the
last reported bid and
asked prices or on the basis of quotations received from
reputable brokers or
other recognized sources; (c) securities maturing within
60 days are valued at
cost plus accreted discount and, or minus amortized
premium, which approximates
market value; (d) securities that have a maturity of 60
days or more are valued
at prices based on market quotations for securities of
similar type, yield and
maturity; (e) interest income, adjusted for amortization
of premium and
accretion of discount, is recorded on the accrual basis
and dividend income is
recorded on the ex-dividend date; (f) gains or losses on
the sale of securities
are calculated by using the specific identification
method; (g) dividends and
distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex
dividend date; (h) the
Portfolios intend to comply with the requirements of the
Internal Revenue Code
of 1986, as amended, pertaining to regulated investment
companies and to make
distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it
from substantially all
Federal income and excise taxes; (i) the character of
income and gains to be
distributed are determined in accordance with income tax
regulations which may
differ from generally accepted accounting principles. At
December 31, 1996,
reclassifications were made to the Portfolio capital
accounts to reflect
permanent book/tax differences and income and gains
available for distribution
under income tax regulations. Accordingly, a portion of
overdistributed net
investment income and accumulated net realized loss
amounting to $6,915 and
$9,045, respectively, were reclassified to paid-in capital
for Social Awareness
Stock Portfolio. Net investment income, net realized gains
and net assets for
each Portfolio were not affected by these changes; and (j)
estimates and
assumptions are required to be made regarding assets,
liabilities and changes in
net assets resulting from operations when financial
statements are prepared.
Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and
any other parameters
used in determining these estimates could cause actual
results to differ.

     2.  INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT AND OTHER
TRANSACTIONS
   Travelers Asset Management International Corporation
("TAMIC"), an indirect
wholly owned subsidiary of Travelers Group Inc., acts as
investment manager and
advisor to the U.S. Government Securities Portfolio
("USGS"). USGS pays TAMIC an
investment management and advisory fee calculated at the
annual rate of 0.3233%
of its average daily net assets. This fee is calculated
daily and paid monthly.

     Greenwich Street Advisors ("GSA"), a division of
Smith Barney Mutual Funds
Management Inc. ("SBMFM") which is a subsidiary of Smith
Barney Holdings Inc.
("SBH") and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of
Travelers Group Inc., acts as
investment manager and advisor to the Social Awareness
Stock ("SAS") and
Utilities ("Utilities") Portfolios. SAS pays GSA an
investment management and
advisory fee calculated at an annual rate of : 0.65% on
the first $50 million,
0.55% on the next $50 million, 0.45% on the next $100
million and 0.40% on
amounts over $200 million of the average daily net assets.
Utilities pays GSA an
investment management and advisory fees calculated at an
annual rate of 0.65% of
the average daily net assets. These fees are calculated
daily and paid monthly.

----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

    Travelers Insurance Company ("Travelers Insurance")
acts as administrator
to the Portfolios. The Portfolios pay Travelers Insurance
an administration fee
calculated at an annual rate of 0.06% of the average daily
net assets. Travelers
Insurance has entered into a sub-administrative services
agreement with SBMFM.
Travelers Insurance pays SBMFM, as sub-administrator, a
fee calculated at an
annual rate of 0.06% of the average daily net assets of
each Portfolio. This fee
is calculated daily and paid monthly.

     One Trustee and all officers of the Trust are
employees of Travelers Group
Inc., or its subsidiaries.

     3.  INVESTMENTS

      During the six months ended June 30, 1997, the
aggregate cost of purchases
and proceeds from sales of investments (including
maturities, but excluding
short-term securities) were as follows:

</TABLE>

     4.  REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS
    The Portfolios purchase (and their custodian takes
possession of) U.S.
Government securities from banks and securities dealers
subject to agreements to
resell the securities to the sellers at a future date
(generally, the next
business day) at an agreed-upon higher repurchase price.
The Portfolios require
continual maintenance of the market value of the
collateral in amounts at least
equal to 102% of the repurchase price.

     5.  FUTURES CONTRACTS

     Initial margin deposits made upon entering into
futures contracts are
recognized as assets. The initial margin is segregated by
the custodian and is
noted in the schedule of investments. During the period
the futures contract is
open, changes in the value of the contract are recognized
as unrealized gains or
losses by "marking-to-market" on a daily basis to reflect
the market value of
the contract at the end of each day's trading. Variation
margin payments are
made or received and recognized as assets due from or
liabilities due to broker,
depending upon whether unrealized gains or losses are
incurred. When the
contract is closed, the Portfolios record a realized gain
or loss equal to the
difference between the proceeds from (or cost of) the
closing transactions and
the Portfolio's basis in the contract. The Portfolios bear
the market risk that
arises from changes in the value of the financial
instruments and securities
indices (futures contracts) and the credit risk should a
counterparty fail to
perform under such contracts.

   At June 30, 1997, the Portfolios had no open futures
contracts.

----------------------------------------------------------
---------------------
 NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (CONTINUED)

     6.  OPTIONS CONTRACTS

     Premiums paid when put or call options are purchased
by the Portfolios,
represent investments, which are "marked-to-market" daily.
When a purchased
option expires, the Portfolios will realize a loss in the
amount of the premium
paid. When the Portfolios enter into closing sales
transactions, the Portfolios
will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the
proceeds from the closing
sales transactions are greater or less than the premium
paid for the option.
When the Portfolios exercise a put option, they will
realize a gain or loss from
the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from
such sale will be
decreased by the premium originally paid. When the
Portfolios exercise a call
option, the cost of the security which the Portfolios
purchase upon exercise
will be increased by the premium originally paid.

      As of June 30, 1997, the Portfolios had no open
purchased call or put
options contracts.

     7.  CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARD

    At December 31, 1996, U.S. Government Securities
Portfolio had, for Federal
income tax purposes, approximately $715,000 of capital
loss carryforwards
available to offset future capital gains through 2004. To
the extent that these
carryforward losses are used to offset capital gains, it
is probable that the
gains so offset will not be distributed.

     8.  SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

     The Declaration of Trust authorizes the issuance of
an unlimited number of
shares of beneficial interest without par value.
Transactions in shares of each
Portfolio were as follows:

(1) For the six months ended June 30, 1997 (unaudited).

(2) For the period from January 24, 1992 (commencement of
operations) to
    December 31, 1992.
(3) Distributions from realized gains include both net
realized short-term and
    long-term capital gains. Prior to 1996 net realized
short-term capital gains
    were included in distributions from net investment
income.

(4) The expense ratios for the year ended December 31,
1993 and the period ended
  December 31, 1992 reflect expense reimbursement by The
Travelers in
  connection with voluntary expense limitations. Without
the expense
  reimbursement, the expense ratios would have been 0.77%
and 0.72%
    (annualized), respectively.
(5) For the period from May 1, 1992 (inception date) to
December 31, 1992.
(6) For the year ended December 31, 1996, The Travelers
reimbursed the Portfolio
    for $25,093 in expenses. If such fees were not
waived and expenses not
    reimbursed, the per share decrease of net
investment income would have been
  $0.06 and the expense ratio would have been 1.69%.
                           
(7) The expense ratios for the years ended December 31,
1995, 1994, 1993 and the
    period ended December 31, 1992 reflect expense
reimbursement by The
    Travelers in connection with voluntary expense
limitations. Without the
    expense reimbursement, the expense ratios would
have been 1.75%, 3.34%,
    3.73% and 2.19% (annualized), respectively.

(8) For the fiscal years beginning after 1995, the SEC
instituted new guidelines
  requiring the disclosure of average commissions per
share on Funds which
    held more than 10% of their assets in
commissionable equity securities.

  ++ Total return is not annualized, as it may not be
