   Gentlemen:

             We have acted as counsel for you in connection with the
   preparation of a Registration Statement on Form N-1A and amendments
   thereto relating to the sale by you of an indefinite amount of shares of
   Common Stock, $1.00 par value, of the Concorde Value Fund Series and
   Concorde Income Fund Series in the manner set forth in the Registration
   Statement.  In this connection, we have examined:  (a) the Registration
   Statement on Form N-1A and all amendments thereto; (b) the Rule 24f-2
   Notice for Concorde Funds, Inc. dated November 19, 1996; (c) corporate
   proceedings relative to the authorization for issuance of shares of Common
   Stock of the Concorde Value Fund Series and Concorde Income Fund Series;
   and (d) such other proceedings, documents and records as we deemed
   necessary to enable us to render this opinion.

             Based on the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the shares of
   Common Stock of the Concorde Value Fund Series and Concorde Income Funds
   Series sold in the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996 in reliance upon
   registration pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of
   1940 and in the manner set forth in the Registration Statement were
   legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable.  We have not examined the
   stock register books of Concorde Funds, Inc.  In opining that the shares
   of the Concorde Value Fund Series and Concorde Income Funds Series sold in
   the fiscal year ended September 30, 1996 were fully paid, we have relied
   upon a certificate of an officer of Concorde Funds, Inc. as to the
   consideration received for such shares.

             We hereby consent to the use of this opinion in connection with
   the filing of the Rule 24f-2 Notice for Concorde Funds, Inc. for its
   fiscal year ended September 30, 1996.  In giving this consent, we do not
   admit that we are experts within the meaning of Section 11 of the
   Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or within the category of persons
   whose consent is required by Section 7 of said Act.

                                      Very truly yours,



                                      FOLEY & LARDNER
