dal had been restored to duty.

stored" Robert Daru, general
counsel to the committee on JUS

said.
"We hope and trust that they

approximately 80 cadets accused
of cheating on examinations-but
in determining whether they were
treated fairly in accordance with
law.
Informing Required.
Mr.. Hart was questioned by
Committee Counsel Robert Daru.

academy that the honor code re-
Iquired him to inform on fellow
cadets who cheated.

suggested by West Point officials
that he could go to prison for
cheating.
Eyes, it was" Mr.. Hart replied.
Five other cadets were present
at the committee hearing. One of
them, Peter Herman, 20, of
Rochester, N. Y. said he was told
