FIDELITY FUND
SUPPLEMENT TO THE STATEMENT OF ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
DATED AUGUST 20, 1993
   The following replaces the first paragraph of the section entitled
"Valuation of Portfolio Securities" on page 10.    
   VALUATION OF PORTFOLIO SECURITIES    
         Portfolio securities are valued by various methods depending on
the primary market or exchange on which they trade.  Most equity securities
for which the primary market is the U.S. are valued at last sale price or,
if no sale has occurred, at the closing bid price.  Most equity securities
for which the primary market is outside the U.S. are valued using the
official closing price or the last sale price in the principal market where
they are traded.  If the last sale price (on the local exchange) is
unavailable, the last evaluated quote or last bid price is normally used. 
Short-term securities are valued either at amortized cost or at original
cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value. 
Convertible and fixed-income securities are valued primarily by a pricing
service that uses a vendor security valuation matrix which incorporates
both dealer-supplied valuations and electronic data processing techniques. 
This twofold approach is believed to more accurately reflect fair value
because it takes into account appropriate factors such as institutional
trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate,
maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data,
without exclusive reliance upon quoted, exchange, or over-the-counter
prices.  Use of pricing services has been approved by the Board of
Trustees.    
      MANAGEMENT CONTRACT.  Effective November 1, 1993, FMR agreed to
voluntarily adopt the revised group fee rate schedule shown below for
purposes of calculating the group fee component of the management fee.  The
revised schedule provides for lower management fees as total assets under
management increase, and it will be presented to shareholders for approval
at the next shareholder meeting.

The following information supplements that found in the Statement of
Additional Information.
DESCRIPTION OF MOODY'S INVESTORS SERVICE, INC.'S CORPORATE BOND RATINGS:
AAA - Bonds rated Aaa are judged to be of the best quality.  They carry the
smallest degree of investment risk 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 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 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 sometime in the
future.
BAA - Bonds rated Baa are considered as medium-grade obligations, i.e.,
they are neither highly protected nor poorly secured.  Interest payments
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.  Such bonds lack outstanding investment
characteristics and in fact have speculative characteristics as well.
BA - Bonds 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 rated B generally lack characteristics of the desirable
investment.  Assurance of interest and principal payments or maintenance of
other terms of the contract over any long period of time may be small.
CAA - Bonds rated Caa are of poor standing.  Such issues may be in default
or there may be present elements of danger with respect to principal or
interest.
CA - Bonds rated Ca represent obligations which are speculative in a high
degree.  Such issues are often in default or have other marked
short-comings.
C - Bonds rated C are the lowest-rated class of bonds and issued so rated
can be regarded as having extremely poor prospects of ever attaining any
real investment standing.
Moody's applies numerical modifiers, 1, 2, and 3, in each generic rating
classification from Aa through B in its corporate bond rating system.  The
modifier 1 indicates that the security ranks in the higher end of its
generic rating category; the modifier 2 indicates a mid-range ranking; and
the modifier 3 indicates that the issue ranks in the lower end of its
generic rating category.
DESCRIPTION OF STANDARD & POOR'S CORPORATION'S CORPORATE BOND RATINGS:
AAA - Debt rated AAA has the highest rating assigned by Standard &
Poor's to a debt obligation.  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 higher-rated issues only in 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.
 
 
      (Page 2 of 3)
BBB - Debt rated BBB is regarded as having an adequate capacity to pay
interest and repay principal.  Whereas it normally exhibits 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 debt in this category than in higher-rated
categories.
BB - Debt rate BB has less near-term vulnerability to default than other
speculative issues.  However, it faces major ongoing uncertainties or
exposure to adverse business, financial, or economic conditions which could
lead to inadequate capacity to meet timely interest and principal payments.
B - Debt rated B has a greater vulnerability to default but currently has
the capacity to meet interest payments and principal repayments.  Adverse
business, financial, or economic conditions will likely impair capacity or
willingness to pay interest and repay principal.  The B rating category is
also used for debt subordinated to senior debt that is assigned an actual
or implied BB- rating.
CCC - Debt rated CCC has a currently identifiable vulnerability to default,
and is dependent upon favorable business, financial, and economic
conditions to meet timely payment of interest and repayment of principal. 
In the event of adverse business, financial, or economic conditions, it is
not likely to have the capacity to pay interest and repay principal.
CC - Debt rated CC is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior debt
which is assigned an actual or implied CCC debt rating.
C - The rating C is typically applied to debt subordinated to senior debt
which is assigned an actual or implied CCC- debt rating.  The C rating may
be used to cover a situation where a bankruptcy petition has been filed but
debt service payments are continued.
CI - The rating CI is reserved for income bonds on which no interest is
being paid.
D - Debt rated D is in payment default.  The D rating category is used when
interest payments or principal payments are not made on the date due even
if the applicable grace period has not expired, unless S&P believes
that such payments will be made during such grace period.  The D rating
will also be used upon the filing of a bankruptcy petition if debt service
payments are jeopardized.
The ratings from AA to CCC may be modified by the addition of a plus or
minus to show relative standing within the major rating categories.
