Dear colleagues and Prof Bliss:

I believe there was a HORN GYULA (Gyula Horn) in Hungarian politics 
and/or sports at one time. Could this be the chap you're seeking?

Good luck,
Steven P Hill,
University of Illinois.

Subject: A Hungarian name

Dear SEELANGers -- Can anyone help me with the name of the chairman of 
the All-Hungary Committee for Physical Culture and Sport in the 1950s?

The transliteration given in the Russian text I'm working on is Х. Дьюла 
(sometimes Х. Дьюлла) [Kh. D'yula or D'yulla]. The latter element could be 
Gyula, but the X./Kh. has me baffled. One Soviet source renders it as Хеди 
(Khedi), but I couldn't confirm to my satisfaction that this really is the guy's 
name.

I'm particularly miffed because he was also head of the Hungarian delegation 
to the epoch-making 1956 Melbourne Olympics, which should be a great help 
to me. But still I'm coming up dry.

Best to all
Liv
