He left the room, and did not

there was plenty of conversation,

was busy with the papers. The

Both Maj. Gen. Frederick A.

and Head Football Coach Earl
Re0 Blaik, whose vaunted team
was hit by the dismissal order
Friday, have stated they would
like to see such an inquiry.
In their telegram to Mr.. Tru-
man the parents said:
The dismissal in disgrace and
without trial of our 80 sons at
the Military Academy is travesty
on the American idea of justice
and a needless waste of the lives
of these young men. We petition
you to make their punishment fit
their crime.
Your order restoring them to
duty without prejudice subject
to proper cadet discipline. per-
mitting them the right to normal
graduation and commission, would
be appropriate, charitable and a
fatherly act of understanding
leadership.
Make it possible for them to
reply in service to the Nation for
the error of then youth.
I'VE vouch for these young men.

NEW YORK, Aug. 7 (NANA) -
The current tempest over viola
tions of the honor system at West
Point recalls an incident at Co.
lumbia University when the honor
system was abolished there in
1907 or 1908.
In its place was instituted the
proctor system. Examinations fo1
large classes were held in the
gymnasium. where desks were ar
ranged, and in the lecture halls
The proctors, mostly junior men,
bers of the faculty. passed up and
down the aisles, intent on spotting
any attempt at cheating.
At that time Prof. Livingston
Farrand was professor of anthro-
policy at Columbia. He had a
class of approximately 80 students
who took their annual examina-
ton in a comparatively small
room. The first year of the proc
tor system Prof. Farrand wrote
the examination questions on a
blackboard in one room, then ad-
dressed the class.

Senators See Faculty at Fault.
Senator Welker, Republican. of
Idaho, and Senators Hunt of Wy
oming, Benton Of Connecticut
and Kerr of Oklahoma, all Demo-
Gratis, asserted the West Point
faculty must share the blame for
the scandal, along with the
cadets.
The honor code the cadets are
charged with violating is a "ridi-
culous thing" because examina-
tions were given in sections and
the questions were the same, Sem
ator Welker told the Senate.
He said that because of the
malfeasance of the faculty" the
cadets had beep lied to disgrace
and shame"
Senator Hunt. a member OF the
Armed Services Committee, said
the test system was "a direct in
vitation" to cheating.
Are the professors at West
Point too lazy to make up sep
arate sets of questions?" he asked
Benton Urges End of Football.

cadets were much more sinned

Mr.. Blaik would not comment
on reports he would resign as

since 1941. He said he would

BY the Assoeioted Press

Many American colleges anc
universities put students on theil
honor during examination, as Wes
Point does with its cadets. Blu
most schools prefer to have pro-
feSSorS supervise tests.
A survey of numerous campuSe!
today showed that authorities re-
ported very few cases of cribbing
or cheating, regardless of the
method used to prevent student
irregularities.
Many schools also would dis
miss students for the type of crib
bing involved in the West Point
case. but several institutions have
lighter penalties, such as lower
mark or suspension for a single
semester.
The honor system, with a few
variations from school to school.
puts students on their pledge not
to cheat during examination,
whether supervised by professors
or not. It also binds them not to
divulge questions to their class
mates who may take the same
test at a later date.
Review Boards Set Up.
Most honor systems require stu
dents to report violations by theil
fellow collegians. Review boards
or courts" made up of students
or faculty members or both, judge
the cases and determine disciplin-
ary action.
Supervision of examination
usually known as the proctor sys-
tenn, is followed at most of the
larger schools, whose big student
bodies may make honor systems
impractical.
In this system tests are giver
under the watchful eye of proc.
tors" usually faculty members OF
upper classmen.
William and Mary College claims
the first honor system in the coun-
try, dating from 1779. The schoo
