We detected CO emission, in the J = 1 - 0 and J = 2 - 1 rotational transitions, toward the bipolar planetary nebula M 328. The carbon monoxide emission most probably arises in a neutral remnant of the circumstellar envelope of the progenitor star. For an assumed distance of 2.8 kpc, we estimate the mass in molecular hydrogen to be about 0.2 solar mass. The ratio of molecular mass to ionized mass is about 7 for this nebula.
