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.
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 11,978,853 shares of capital stock of
Scudder's International Fund Series (the "Shares") sold in reliance upon Rule
24f-2 during the fiscal year ended March 31, 1997.
We have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified
to our satisfaction, of the Charter, By-Laws and records of corporate
proceedings of Scudder, and such additional documents, and we have obtained such
other certificates, 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 not less than its net asset value, determined
in accordance with the Charter, Bylaws and policies of the Board of Directors,
and that all of such Shares were issued on the basis set forth in Scudder's
registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
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 that you are about to file
pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940.
Sincerely yours,
