Gentlemen:
We have served as special counsel for Unison Investment Trusts
Ltd., Sponsor of Central Equity Trust, Utility Series 21, in connection with
the preparation, execution and delivery of a Trust Agreement dated December 9,
1992, as supplemented on December 22, 1992, January 5, January 13 and
January 20, 1993 and a related Standard Terms and Conditions of Trust, as
amended (collectively, the "Trust Agreement") relating to such Trust, pursuant
to which the Sponsor has delivered to and deposited with the Trustee the
Securities listed in all schedules marked "Schedule A" to the Trust Agreement
and pursuant to which the Trustee has issued to or on the order of the Sponsor
a certificate or certificates representing an aggregate of 615,810 Units of
fractional undivided interest in and ownership of the Trust created under said
Trust Agreement (the "Certificates").
In connection therewith, we have examined such pertinent records
and documents and matters of law as we have deemed necessary in order to enable
us to express the opinions hereinafter set forth.
Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the
Certificates evidencing the Units in the Trust, when duly executed and

valid and binding obligations of the Trust in accordance with the terms of the
Trust Agreement.
Very truly yours,
/S/ BRYAN CAVE
