                             PREAMBLE

        The filing of this Schedule 13D is not, and should not be
deemed to be, an admission that such Schedule 13D is required to be
filed.  See the discussion under Item 2.

Item 1. Security and Issuer

This Schedule 13D relates to the shares of common stock, no
par value (the "Common Stock") of 20th Century Industries, a
California corporation (the "Company").  The principal executive
offices of the Company are located at 6301 Owensmouth Avenue,
Woodland Hills, California 91367.

Item 2. Identity and Background

This Schedule 13D is being filed by Union Automobile Insurance
Company, an Illinois corporation ("Union Automobile"), that has its
principal business office at 303 East Washington Street,
Bloomington, Illinois 61701.

Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Union Automobile, together with its wholly-owned subsidiary,
American Union Life Insurance Company ("American Union"), has
purchased 4,850,000 shares of the Common Stock for cash in the
amount of $66,780,711, including brokerage commissions.  Union
Automobile and American Union used their own assets in making such
purchase and no part of the purchase price is represented by
borrowed funds.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction

Union Automobile (together with American Union) purchased its
Common Stock for investment purposes.  Union Automobile intends
continuously to review its investment in the Company.  In reaching
any decision with respect to such investment, Union Automobile will
taken into consideration various factors, such as the Company's
business prospects and financial position, other developments
concerning the Company, the price level of the Common Stock,
available opportunities to acquire or dispose of the Common Stock
or realize trading profits, conditions in the securities markets,
and general economic and industry conditions.  Depending upon the
results of its review of such factors, Union Automobile may decide
to purchase additional Common Stock in the open market, through
privately negotiated transactions with third parties or otherwise,
or to sell at any time, in the open market, through privately
negotiated transactions with third parties or otherwise, all or a
portion of the Common Stock now owned or hereafter acquired by
Union Automobile.

As disclosed in the Company's Proxy Statement for its 1995
Annual Meeting of Shareholders, filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on April 25, 1995, Gregory M. Shepard, the
President of Union Automobile, has been nominated for election to
the Company's board of directors (the "Board").  The election of
Mr. Shepard to the Board by the Company's shareholders would result
in a change in the present board of directors of the Company
(paragraph (d) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D).  Except as described
above, Union Automobile has no present plans or proposals which
would result in or relate to any of the transactions described in
paragraphs (a) through (j) of Item 4.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Company

(a) Union Automobile beneficially owns 4,850,000 shares of the
Common Stock, representing 9.42% of the outstanding Common Stock.

(b) Union Automobile has the sole power to vote and the sole

(c) Union Automobile has not effected any transactions in
shares of the Common Stock during the past sixty (60) days.

(d) No other person has the right to receive or the power to
direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale
of, the shares of the Common Stock beneficially owned by Union
Automobile.

(e) Not applicable.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships

There are no contracts, arrangements, understanding or
relationships (legal or otherwise) between Union Automobile and any
other person with respect to any securities of the Company.
