     Company Act of 1940) to Registration Statement on Form N-1A

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen:

         Pursuant to Rule 477 under Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), WPG Large Cap Growth Fund (the "Registrant") hereby requests
that the above-referenced Post-Effective Amendment to its Registration Statement
on Form N-1A be withdrawn. As discussed with Mrs. Patricia P. Williams of the
staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, please be advised that the
Registrant makes such request because it intends to reorganize into a series of
The RBB Fund, Inc. and cease operations after the close of business on April 29,
2005.

         Please contact Leonard A. Pierce, Esq. (617) 526-6440 or Timothy F.
Silva (617) 526-6502, at Wilmer Cutler Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP, counsel to
the Registrant, with any questions or comments you may have regarding this
matter.

                                                Very truly yours,



                                                /s/Daniel S. Vandivort
