Lindner Investments
1940 Act File No. 811-7932
1933 Act File No. 33-66712
Ladies and Gentlemen:
This Firm serves as counsel to Lindner Investments (the "Fund") for
purposes of the enclosed Rule 24f-2 filing. In connection with the opinion
set forth below, we have examined the Fund's Declaration of Trust and its
Bylaws. We have also reviewed minutes of the meetings of the Fund's Board
of Trustees held during the period from July 1, 1996 to date.
Based on the foregoing, it is our opinion that the securities referred
to in the Fund's Annual Notice of Securities Sold Pursuant to Rule 24f-2
(the "Rule 24f-2 Notice"), dated August 27, 1997, the registration of which
such Notice makes definite in number, were legally issued, are fully paid
and are non-assessable.
We hereby consent to this opinion accompanying the Rule 24f-2 Notice
that the Fund is filing on this date with the Commission.
Very truly yours,
DYKEMA GOSSETT PLLC
/S/ PAUL R. RENTENBACH
