Hungary Bid for Seminar Rejected By Council Group

Regretful rejection of an unofficial feeler extended by a Hungarian publication last week to locate the Student Council Salzburg seminar in that country was announced as an executive committee decision by Levin H. Campbell '48 last night.

Meeting as a unified body for the first time last Saturday afternoon, the Salzburg executive decided that the educational project was "highly interested" in procuring students from Eastern Euroue. But the committee did not think it practical to relocate the seminar, now situated at Leopoldskron Castle outside Vienna.

Campbell added that a Russian-Czech effort to establish a Slavonic Studies seminar, patterned on the American model, would be encouraged in every way.

One Reservation

Difficulties of official interference are involved in soliciting a student body from behind the "iron curtain," said Campbell. Only reservation now placed on accepting Eastern Europeans, Campbell explained, is that they measure up to the high standard of scholarship set last summer.
