nomination was made was per

It's disgraceful situation"

Irected most Of their indignation
at athletics because they have
been told cheating at West Point
began several years ago among
football players who found it hard
to spend hours on the gridiron
and still keep pace with their
studies.
Representative Potter, Repub-
lican, of Michigan took the view
that the discharged cadets are
victims Of athletic commercialism.
He said he thought the Army
dealt with them too harshly.
"They have been instilled with
la philosophy that their main ef-
fort should be on the athletic
field" he said in statement.
Academic work, consequently,
assumes the status of an extra
'curricuiar activity"
Rather than place all the
blame and responsibility on these
cadets. the West Point admin

major responsibility for this un-
savory condition"
