Re: Rule 24f-2 Notice
Gentlemen:
Scudder International Fund, Inc. ("Scudder") is a corporation organized
under the laws of the State of Maryland on June 23, 1975, having its principal
place of business in New York, New York. Scudder has five authorized series of
stock, the International Fund series, the Pacific Opportunities Fund series, the
Latin America Fund series, the Greater Europe Growth Fund series, and the
Emerging Markets Growth Fund series. The Pacific Opportunities Fund series
consists of one hundred million (100,000,000) authorized shares of capital
stock, with a par value of One Cent ($0.01) per share. The Latin America Fund
series consists of one hundred million (100,000,000) authorized shares of
capital stock with a par value of One Cent ($0.01) per share. The Greater Europe
Growth Fund series consists of one hundred million (100,000,000) authorized
shares of capital stock, with a par value of One Cent ($0.01) per share. The
Emerging Markets Growth Fund series consists of one hundred million
(100,000,000) authorized shares of capital stock, with a par value of One Cent
($0.01) per share. The Pacific Opportunities Fund, Latin America Fund, the
Greater Europe Growth Fund and Emerging Markets Growth Fund are hereinafter
sometimes individually referred to as a "Fund" and collectively referred to as
the "Funds."
We understand that, pursuant to Rule 24f-2 under the Investment Company
Act of 1940, Scudder registered an indefinite number of shares of its capital
stock,

effective December 1, 1980. We further understand that, pursuant to the
provisions of Rule 24f-2, you are about to file with the Securities and Exchange
Commission a notice making definite the registration of 37,658,732 shares of
capital stock of the Funds (the "Shares") sold in reliance upon Rule 24f-2
during the Funds' fiscal year ended October 31, 1996.
We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified
to our satisfaction, of the Charter, By-Laws, as amended, and records of
corporate proceedings of Scudder, and such affidavits and advices from officers
of Scudder or from public officials, as we have deemed necessary or appropriate
for the purpose of this opinion.
We are of the opinion that all of the Shares were legally and validly
issued, and are fully paid and non-assessable. The opinion expressed in the
preceding sentence is based upon the assumptions that the consideration received
by Scudder for each such Share was in cash and in an amount not less than the
net asset value per share of the Fund to which such Share relates, determined in
accordance with the Charter, Bylaws and policies of the Board of Directors, and
at all times the net asset value per share of each of the Funds was not less
than One Cent ($0.01).
We express no opinion as to compliance with the Securities Act of 1933,
the Investment Company Act of 1940 or the securities laws of any state with
respect to the issuance of the Shares.
We consent to your filing this opinion with the Securities and Exchange
Commission in connection with the Rule 24f-2 Notice which you are about to file
pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Sincerely,
/s/Ober, Kaler, Grimes & Shriver
