OppenheimerFunds, Inc. Two World Financial Center 225 Liberty Street New York, New York 10281 July 13, 2007 VIA EDGAR Securities and Exchange Commission Mail Stop 0-7, Filer Support 6432 General Green Way Alexandria, Virginia 22312 Re: Registration Statement on Form N-14 for Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund; Proxy Materials for Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund. To the Securities and Exchange Commission: Enclosed for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), is the Registration Statement on Form N-14 (the "Registration Statement") of Oppenheimer Capital Appreciation Fund (the "Registrant"), an open-end investment company. The Registration Statement will register shares of the Registrant to be issued in the reorganization ("merger") of that open-end investment company with Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund ("Emerging Technologies Fund"), also an open-end investment company. The Registrant and Emerging Technologies Fund have the same investment adviser (OppenheimerFunds, Inc.). As stated on the facing sheet of the Registration Statement, it is expected that the Registration Statement will become effective on August 13, 2007. The solicitation of Oppenheimer Emerging Technologies Fund shareholders is expected to commence shortly thereafter. In accordance with the general instructions to Form N-14, the preliminary proxy material which forms a part of the Registration Statement is deemed to be filed pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. No filing fee is due because the Registrant previously filed a declaration to register an indefinite number of shares pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. In accordance with the instructions to Item 14(2) of Form N-14, pro forma financials for the Registrant that reflect the effect of the proposed reorganization are not required. The Agreement and Plan of Reorganization filed herewith as Exhibit A to the Proxy Statement and Prospectus and the disclosure in the Proxy Statement and Prospectus concerning the reorganization of Registrant and Emerging Technologies Fund closely follow the corresponding disclosure in other registration statements recently filed on Form N-14 in connection with the reorganizations of several Oppenheimer funds with other Oppenheimer funds, such as the Registration Statement on Form N-14 of Oppenheimer Champion Income Fund (333-16494, July 24, 2006). The Securities and Exchange Commission Staff is requested to address any comments or questions you may have on this filing to: Randy Legg, Esq. Vice President and Assistant Counsel OppenheimerFunds, Inc. Two World Financial Center 6803 South Tucson Way Centennial, CO 80112-3924 303.768.1026 rlegg@oppenheimerfunds.com Thank you for your assistance. Sincerely, /s/ Taylor V.
