     hereof and prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which

     statement contained in a document incorporated or deemed to be

Item 4.  Description of Securities

Securities are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company provides for
the indemnification of officers, directors, agents and employees of
the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("Delaware Code"). 
Pursuant to Section 145 of the Delaware Code, the Company generally
has the power to indemnify its present and former directors,
officers, employees and agents against expenses incurred by them in
connection with any suit to which they are, or are threatened to be
made, a party by reason of their serving in such positions so long
as they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Company, and with respect to any criminal action, they had no
reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful.  The
Company has the power to purchase and maintain insurance for such
persons.  The statute also expressly provides that the power to
indemnify authorized thereby is not exclusive of any rights granted
under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors, or otherwise.

     The above discussion of the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation and of Section 145 of the Delaware Code is not
intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by such
Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware Code.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Not applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits.

The following is a list of exhibits filed as part of the Registration
Statement:

     5.1  Opinion of Morgan F. Johnston, Esq. regarding the
          legality of the securities offered hereby.
     
     23.1 Consent of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.

     23.2 Consent of Morrison, Brown, Argiz & Company

     23.3 Consent of S. W. Hatfield + Associates

     23.4 Consent of Morgan F. Johnston, Esq. (included in Exhibit 5.1)

Item 9.  Undertakings.

The undersigned hereby undertakes:

    (1)(a)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales
            are being made, a post effective amendment to this registration
            statement to include any material information with respect to the
            plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
            statement or any material change to such information in the
            registration statement;
         
       (b)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability
            under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall
            be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
            securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
            that time shall be deemed to be the initial benefit offering
            thereof.

    (2)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for
         purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
         pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act
         (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
         annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that
         is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be
         deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
         securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
         that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
         thereof.

    (3)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
         the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
         controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
         provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in
         the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
         indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the act
         and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for
         indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
         the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
         or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense
         of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
         officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
         being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
         counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
         submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
         such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
         the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
         of such issue.

S.O.I. Industries, Inc.
16910 Dallas Parkway, Suite 100
Dallas, Texas 75248

    Re:  Registration Statement on S-8 for S.O.I. Industries, Inc.

Gentlemen:

    At your request, I have examined the form of Registration
Statement which you are filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), in
connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, of an aggregate of 100,000 shares of your Common Stock
(the "Stock") issuable pursuant to the Compensation Agreements for
Gary C. Evans, James Smith and Clifford Patton (the "Plan").

    In rendering the following opinion, I have examined and relied
only upon the documents, and certificates of officers and directors
of the Company as are specifically described below. In my
examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the
authenticity, accuracy and completeness of the documents submitted
to me as originals, and the conformity with the original documents
of all documents submitted to me as copies.  My examination was
limited to the following documents:

      1.  Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended
          to date;

      2.  Bylaws of the Company, as amended to date;

      3.  Certified Resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors
          of the Company authorizing the Plan and the issuance of the Stock;

      4.  The Registration Statement; and

      5.  The Form of Plan.

    I have not undertaken, nor do I intend to undertake, any
independent investigation beyond such documents and records, or to
verify the adequacy of accuracy of such documents and records.

    Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that the Stock to be
issued under the Plan, subject to effectiveness of the Registration
Statement and compliance with applicable blue sky laws, and
execution of the Plan in the form referred to herein, when issued
under the Plan, will be duly and validly authorized, fully paid and
non-assessable.

    I express no opinion as to compliance with the securities or
"blue sky" laws of any state in which the Stock is proposed to be
offered and sold or as to the effect, if any, which non-compliance
with such laws might have on the validity of issuance of the Stock.

    I consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to any
filing made with the Securities and Exchange Commission or under
any state or other jurisdiction's securities act for the purpose of
registering, qualifying or establishing eligibility for an
exemption from registration or qualification of the Stock described
in the Registration Statement in connection with the offering
described therein.  Other than as provided in the preceding
sentence, this opinion (i) is addressed solely to you, (ii) may not
be relied upon by any other party, (iii) covers only matters of
Delaware and federal law and nothing in this opinion shall be
deemed to imply any opinion related to the laws of any other
jurisdiction, (iv) may not be quoted or reproduced or delivered by
you to any other person, and (v) may not be relied upon for any
other purpose whatsoever.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to relate
to or constitute an opinion concerning any matters not specifically
set forth above.

    By giving you this opinion and consent, I do not admit that I
am an expert with respect to any part of the Registration Statement
or Prospectus within the meaning of the term "expert" as used in
Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Rules
and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
promulgated thereunder.

    The information set forth herein is as of the date of this
letter.  I disclaim any undertaking to advise you of changes which
may be brought to my attention after the effective date of the
Registration Statement.


Very truly yours,

/s/ Morgan F. Johnston

Item 4.  Description of Securities

Securities are registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act.

Item 5.  Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6.  Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

     The Certificate of Incorporation of the Company provides for
the indemnification of officers, directors, agents and employees of
the Company to the fullest extent permitted by the General
Corporation Law of the State of Delaware ("Delaware Code"). 
Pursuant to Section 145 of the Delaware Code, the Company generally
has the power to indemnify its present and former directors,
officers, employees and agents against expenses incurred by them in
connection with any suit to which they are, or are threatened to be
made, a party by reason of their serving in such positions so long
as they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably
believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the
Company, and with respect to any criminal action, they had no
reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful.  The
Company has the power to purchase and maintain insurance for such
persons.  The statute also expressly provides that the power to
indemnify authorized thereby is not exclusive of any rights granted
under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested
directors, or otherwise.

     The above discussion of the Company's Certificate of
Incorporation and of Section 145 of the Delaware Code is not
intended to be exhaustive and is qualified in its entirety by such
Certificate of Incorporation and the Delaware Code.

Item 7.  Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Not applicable.

Item 8.  Exhibits.

The following is a list of exhibits filed as part of the Registration
Statement:

     5.1  Opinion of Morgan F. Johnston, Esq. regarding the
          legality of the securities offered hereby.
     
     23.1 Consent of Coopers & Lybrand L.L.P.

     23.2 Consent of Morrison, Brown, Argiz & Company

     23.3 Consent of S. W. Hatfield + Associates

     23.4 Consent of Morgan F. Johnston, Esq. (included in Exhibit 5.1)

Item 9.  Undertakings.

The undersigned hereby undertakes:

    (1)(a)  To file, during any period in which offers or sales
            are being made, a post effective amendment to this registration
            statement to include any material information with respect to the
            plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
            statement or any material change to such information in the
            registration statement;
         
       (b)  That, for the purpose of determining any liability
            under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall
            be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
            securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
            that time shall be deemed to be the initial benefit offering
            thereof.

    (2)  The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for
         purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act
         pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act
         (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
         annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that
         is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be
         deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
         securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
         that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering
         thereof.

    (3)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
         the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and
         controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing
         provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in
         the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
         indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the act
         and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for
         indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by
         the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
         or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense
         of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director,
         officer or controlling person in connection with the securities
         being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its
         counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
         submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether
         such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in
         the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
         of such issue.

    Re:  Registration Statement on S-8 for S.O.I. Industries, Inc.

Gentlemen:

    At your request, I have examined the form of Registration
Statement which you are filing with the Securities and Exchange
Commission, on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement"), in
connection with the registration under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended, of an aggregate of 100,000 shares of your Common Stock
(the "Stock") issuable pursuant to the Compensation Agreements for
Gary C. Evans, James Smith and Clifford Patton (the "Plan").

    In rendering the following opinion, I have examined and relied
only upon the documents, and certificates of officers and directors
of the Company as are specifically described below. In my
examination, I have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the
authenticity, accuracy and completeness of the documents submitted
to me as originals, and the conformity with the original documents
of all documents submitted to me as copies.  My examination was
limited to the following documents:

      1.  Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended
          to date;

      2.  Bylaws of the Company, as amended to date;

      3.  Certified Resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors
          of the Company authorizing the Plan and the issuance of the Stock;

      4.  The Registration Statement; and

      5.  The Form of Plan.

    I have not undertaken, nor do I intend to undertake, any
independent investigation beyond such documents and records, or to
verify the adequacy of accuracy of such documents and records.

    Based on the foregoing, it is my opinion that the Stock to be
issued under the Plan, subject to effectiveness of the Registration
Statement and compliance with applicable blue sky laws, and
execution of the Plan in the form referred to herein, when issued
under the Plan, will be duly and validly authorized, fully paid and
non-assessable.

    I express no opinion as to compliance with the securities or
"blue sky" laws of any state in which the Stock is proposed to be
offered and sold or as to the effect, if any, which non-compliance
with such laws might have on the validity of issuance of the Stock.

    I consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to any
filing made with the Securities and Exchange Commission or under
any state or other jurisdiction's securities act for the purpose of
registering, qualifying or establishing eligibility for an
exemption from registration or qualification of the Stock described
in the Registration Statement in connection with the offering
described therein.  Other than as provided in the preceding
sentence, this opinion (i) is addressed solely to you, (ii) may not
be relied upon by any other party, (iii) covers only matters of
Delaware and federal law and nothing in this opinion shall be
deemed to imply any opinion related to the laws of any other
jurisdiction, (iv) may not be quoted or reproduced or delivered by
you to any other person, and (v) may not be relied upon for any
other purpose whatsoever.  Nothing herein shall be deemed to relate
to or constitute an opinion concerning any matters not specifically
set forth above.

    By giving you this opinion and consent, I do not admit that I
am an expert with respect to any part of the Registration Statement
or Prospectus within the meaning of the term "expert" as used in
Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Rules
and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
promulgated thereunder.

    The information set forth herein is as of the date of this
letter.  I disclaim any undertaking to advise you of changes which
may be brought to my attention after the effective date of the
Registration Statement.

Very truly yours,

/s/ Morgan F. Johnston
