Senator Byrd, Democrat, of

oppose anything that relates to

Il am opposed 20 giving these
men anything that relates to an
honorable discharge, which would
be in the nature of condoning an
outrageous offense," he said
These men have violated a sacred

Instead. they should be severely

they could maintain the required

Such tutoring is an accepted
practice in many colleges.
Cadet Clough indicated that he
aided the football team at the
request of academy officials, or at
least with their knowledge.
Army officials did not comment
on his statements.
They gave me problems to do"
Cadet Clough said of the football
players, land I found out the next
day that I had the same problems
in my class"
Under West Points honor code,
Cadet Clough was duty-bound to
report such an incident, but he
said friendship with these men
meant more to me than the honor
system"
Cadet Travis said that as Cadet
Clough's roommate he became
aware OF this advance notice on
problems and thus was drawn into
the group of violators.
Cadet Travis said the honor code
violations dated back to his plebe
days in 194s and he thought years
before that.

resolution to set up the commits
sion is now pending before a Sem
ate Labor subcommittee.
! Senator Young. Republican, of
North Dakota, a member of the
Congressional board of visitors
which inspects the Military Acad-
emy annually, urged Congress to
investigate the possibility that
oyer-emphasis on football brought
about the violations of West
Points honor system.
Honor System to Continue.
Representative Doyle, Demo-
crat. of California. another board
member, said he was consider
ing asking the House and Senate
Armed Services Committees to
study the question Of over-em-
phasis on athletics.
Nine Republican members Of
the House committee issued a
statement saying that instead of
a Congressional investigation of
moral conditions" at West Point,
an inquiry could be more properly
directed at the seat of the
malady"
IF the Military Academy's re-
nowned code of honor were ap-
piled to the executive branch of
our Government, officials would
be dismissed in wholesale lots,
with White House associates
heading the lot" their statement
said.
The Army made clear that West
Points code of honor, almost as.
old as the institution itself, would
not be abandoned. officials put
great stress on the fact that the
cadets themselves, rather than the
authorities. had first reported the
violations.
+ No Action Against Graduates.
An Army spokesman said that
no evidence had been turned up
that any graduates were involved
although he admitted that they
might have been. Should it be
found that there were violators
among cadets who have gradu-
ated and are now commissioned
officers. no action against them
is planned.
Graduates will be considered to
have made a fresh start with a
clean slate, it was said.
The Army also modified slightly
Its original statement as to the
type of discharge to be given the
cadets who cheated on examina-
