Delaware Group Trend Fund, Inc.
One Commerce Square - 39th Floor
Philadelphia, PA 19103
Gentlemen:
You have informed us that, in accordance with Rule 24f-2
under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, (the "1940
Act"), Delaware Group Trend Fund, Inc., (the "Company"), a Maryland
corporation, intends to file a Rule 24f-2 Notice with the United
States Securities and Exchange Commission, setting forth, among
other things, that during the fiscal year ending June 30, 1995, the
Company sold shares of common stock of the Trend Fund A Class, the
Trend Fund B Class and the Trend Fund Institutional Class for an
aggregate public offering price of $178,774,747 in reliance upon
registration under Rule 24f-2, and the Notice will be filed to make
definite the shares of common stock registered by the Company under
the Securities Act of 1933 (the "1933 Act") in reliance upon the
Rule for such period. You have also informed us that all of the
shares sold under the Rule were issued in accordance with the
provisions relating thereto in the registration statement of the
Company under the 1933 Act as such registration statement was
currently in effect during the period.
We have acted as legal counsel to the Company during the
period of time referred to above and, as such, have reviewed the
Articles of Incorporation of the Company; the By-Laws; the
registration statements under the 1940 and 1933 Acts previously
adopted by the Company and such minutes of the corporate
proceedings and other documents as we deem material to our opinion.
Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that all of
the shares of common stock of the Company described in the Rule
24f-2 Notice as having been sold during the period set forth above
in reliance upon the Rule were fully-paid, non-assessable and
legally issued shares of common stock of the Company.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the
United States Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit or
accompaniment to the aforementioned Rule 24f-2 Notice and as an
exhibit to the Company's registration statement under the 1933 Act
and to the reference to us in the prospectus of the Company as
legal counsel who have passed upon the legality of the offering of
the Company's common stock. We also consent to the filing of this
opinion with the securities regulatory agencies of any states or
other jurisdictions in which the common stock of the Company is
offered for sale.
Very truly yours,
STRADLEY, RONON, STEVENS & YOUNG
