EXHIBIT A


February 10, 1995


Vanguard/Morgan Growth Fund, Inc. (the "Fund")
P.O. Box 1100
Valley Forge, PA  19482

Gentlemen:

     This Post-Effective Amendment 46 to the Fund's Registration Statement
filed on Form N1-A is being filed to make certain corrections in Post-
Effective Amendment 45 filed on behalf of the Fund on October 12, 1994.

     As a member of the Pennsylvania bar acting as Counsel to the Fund,
I have examined the Fund's Articles of Incorporation and other relevant
documents and corporate records as well as procedures and requirements
relative to the issuance and sale of the Fund's shares of Common Stock,
$.10 par value.  This examination disclosed that there were approximately
93,960,760 shares of the Fund issued and outstanding as of October 7, 1994.

     Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that:

     1.  The Fund is a valid and subsisting corporation of the State of
Maryland, authorized to issue one hundred fifty million shares of its
common stock, with a $.10 par value per share.

     2.  Upon the effectiveness of Post-Effective Amendment No. 46 to its
Registration Statement on Form N-1A under the Act covering 3,431,045
shares of the Fund, the Fund will, in jurisdictions where the Fund's shares
are qualified for sale, be authorized to make a public offering of such
shares at prices calculated in the manner disclosed in the Fund's then
current Prospectus, which shares, when so issued, will be lawfully issued,
fully paid, and non-assessable.

     3.  No material events requiring disclosure in the Fund's Prospectus,
other than those listed in paragraph (b)(1) of Rule 485 under the Act, have
occurred since the effective date of the Fund's most recent Post-Effective
Amendment, and Post-Effective Amendment No. 46 to the Fund's Registration
Statement can be properly filed under paragraph (b) of Rule 485.

     I consent to the inclusion of this opinion as an Exhibit to such Post-
Effective Amendment No. 46 to the Fund's Registration Statement and to the
applications and registration statements filed in accordance with the
securities laws of the several jurisdictions in which the Fund's shares are
to be offered and I further consent to a reference in the Fund's Prospectus
concerning the substance of this opinion.

Very truly yours,

By:  Raymond J. Klapinsky, Counsel
