Capstone Fixed Income Series, Inc.
5847 San Felipe, Suite 4100
Houston, Texas  77057

Dear Sirs:

          As counsel for Capstone Government Income Fund (the "Fund"), a series
of Capstone Fixed Income Series, Inc., during the fiscal year ended November 30,
1996, we are familiar with the Fund's registration under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 and with the registration statement relating to its Common Shares
(the "Shares") under the Securities Act of 1933 (File No. 2-28174) (the
"Registration Statement"). We have also examined such other corporate records,
agreements, documents and instruments as we deemed appropriate.

          Based upon the foregoing, it is our opinion with respect to the Shares
the registration of which is being made definite by the Notice pursuant to Rule
24f-2 under the Investment Company Act of 1940 ("Notice") being filed by the
Fund for its fiscal year ended November 30, 1996, assuming such Shares were
sold at the public offering price and delivered by the Fund against receipt of
the net asset value of the Shares in compliance with the terms of the
Registration Statement and the requirements of applicable law, that such Shares
were, when sold, duly and validly authorized, legally and validly issued, and
fully paid and non-assessable.

          We consent to the filing of this opinion in connection with the Notice
on Form 24F-2 to be filed by the Fund with the Securities and Exchange
Commission for the Fund's fiscal year ended November 30, 1996.


                                          Very truly yours,

                                          /s/Dechert Price & Rhoads
