JOHN PELENYI, former Hungarian minister plenipoteniary to the United States and professor of political science emeritus at Dartmouth College, died April 19 at his Hanover home. He was in his 90th year.

Profesor Pelenyi successfully fashioned two careers, those of diplomat and teacher. He had a long and noteworthy career in the diplomatic service of first the Austro-Hungarian Empire and then of his native Hungary before joining the Dartmouth faculty in 1941.

He left his post as envoy extraordinary and minister plenipotentiary of Hungary to the United States, Cuba, and Mexico in November, 1940, as a protest to Hungary's joining the Axis powers in World War II. He had been in that post since 1933.

At the time of his resignation, The New York Times said editorially: "No member of the Washington diplomatic corps knows this country better, or understands it more thoroughly, than Mr. John Pelenyi, whose resignation as Minister of Hungary to the United States ends a useful and distinguished diplomatic career."

Professor Pelenyi's second career began in 1941, when he was appointed a visiting lecturer in political science with the rank of professor by President Ernest Martin Hopkins. He was named a professor of political science in 1943 and taught courses in power politics, foreign policies, and international relations.

While at Dartmouth he served as chairman of a faculty committee which developed an interdepartmental program in international relations. In his final year on the faculty at Dartmouth, he was on leave of absence in 1953-54 and served as president and trustee of the Free Europe University in Exile in Strasbourg.

In recent years he had divided his time between Naples. Fla., and Hanover, maintaining homes in both communities.

He was a graduate of the Consular Academie in Vienna in 1907 and served as the assistant to the judge of the District Court in Vienna in 1907-08. From 1908-17 was in the Austro-Hungarian Consular Service and in 1917-18 was in the legal department of the Foreign Office in Vienna."

After serving on a special mission from 1918-22, he became the counselor of the Hungarian Legation in Washington, serving there until 1930. From 1930-33 he was tne permanent delegate of Hungary to the League of Nations, the International Labor Office and the Disarmament Conference in Geneva, Switzerland.

Dartmouth and Franklin and Marshall Colleges both awarded him honorary master of arts degrees, the former in 1943, and the University of Southern California awarded him an honorary LL.D.

He studied also at Russian University in Berlin and at the Universities of Berlin, Marburg, Hamburg, and Frankfurt. He was awarded an honorary master of arts degree by Dartmouth in 1924.
