Gentlemen:

I have examined the Articles of Incorporation and the By-Laws of
the Company and all necessary certificates, permits, minute books,
documents and records of the Company, and the applicable statutes
of the State of Minnesota, and it is my opinion:

(a)  That the Company is a corporation duly organized and existing
     under the laws of the State of Minnesota with an authorized
     capital stock of 10,000,000,000 shares, all of $.01 par
     value, that such shares may be issued as full or fractional
     shares and that on August 31, 1995, 635,064,184 shares were
     issued and outstanding;

(b)  That all such authorized shares are, under the laws of the
     State of Minnesota, redeemable as provided in the Articles of
     Incorporation of the Company and upon redemption shall have
     the status of authorized and unissued shares;

(c)  That the Company registered on August 29, 1978, an indefinite
     number of shares pursuant to Rule 24f-2 and is herewith
     filing a Rule 24f-2 Notice covering the shares during its
     Fiscal Period ended August 31, 1995; and

(d)  That shares which were sold at not less than their par value
     and in accordance with applicable federal and state
     securities laws were legally issued, fully paid an
     nonassessable.

I hereby consent that the foregoing opinion may be used in
connection with the Rule 24f-2 Notice.

Very truly yours,
