URGES INTERVENTION IN HUNGARY By ALLIES DOCTOR BAUER LEAVES VIENNA TO MEET RENNER AT FELDKIRCH (By Associated Press) Vienna, June 5.-Allied intervention in Hungary was urged by Count Ju- lius Andrassy, former Austro-Hun- .garian foreign minister in a statement today. The count in company with other exiled Hungarians is endeavor- ing to put' down the communist gov- ernrent. } Allied Help Only Hope , "The only thing left for us is allied: help," the count said. "It is useless to treat .with the communists. Every day delayed means greater 'ruin for us, and a loss for the whole world. It will be 50 years before we can' undo the waste caused by the com- munists. Every bank is bankrupt, every rich man impoverished, and every industry ruined." Faculty opinion is unanimous that the summer session of 1919 will be the most successful in every way com- pared with those of former years. With indications pointing toward an unprec- edented attendance1 plans are com- plete for the opening of the session with registration on June 27. In this year's session, the courses are more varied, the faculty enlarged, and ac- commodations bettered in many ways. Record Enrollment Expected President Harry B. Hutchins says of this year's summer term "Indica- tions are that the enrollment at the coming summer session will be a rec- ord breaking one. The opportunities of- fered will be such as tp attract large numbers, Many courses will be in the charge of heads of departments and several men of distinction from other universities will be on the summer faculty. For earnest work the sum- mer term offers advantages that in some respects are superior to those of the regular session. The sections are smaller and opportunities for in- dividdal instruction are all that could be desired." Chance to Trim Ragged Record Dean John R. Effinger views the coming opportunity for summer work! as a valuable means toward remedy- ing low marks caused by war irregu- larities. "As a means of clearing up a ragged record ;caused by war ab- sences or the unsettled University conditions of the S. A. T. C., the value of this year's summer session is without question," he said. "Corre- spondencenpromises an unusually large attendance." That the war has stimulated an un- usual interest in education and con- sequent taking advantage of all op- portunities to secur it, is the opinion of Dean E. H. Kraus. "The 26th sum- mer session bids fair to be - the larg- est in the history of the University," he said. "Never before has such in- terest been displayed in the coming work, both by students and. outsid- ers. The war has proved conclusive- ly the need for trained educated work- ers. The session expects an unprece- dented attendance." Many Expected in Law School "Indications 'in the Law school point toward an unusually large attendance in this year's summer session," said Dean Henry M. Bates.
