dent Nixon today announced
organization Of a plans board
which will enter his name in
New Hampshire's flrst-in-the-

West Point
SIops Back
At Rickover

WEST POINT, N. Y, Nov. Z
(AP).-The superintendent OF
the United States Military
Academy says Vice Admiral
Lyman G. Rickover has shown
ignorance in criticizing educa-
tional standards of service
academies.
1t. Gen. Garrison H. David
son yesterday told a group OF
visiting newsmen: "In my fixed
opinion, Admiral Rickover
speaks from ignorance"
Last September, the admiral
told the House Appropriations
Committee that graduates OF
the United States Naval Acad-
envy are about two years be-
hind graduates Of q good en-
cheering school" He also
charged too much time was
spent on training.
Another thing that bothers

me-" he said, "is that service
academies still keep on with
the immature kind of hazing
that used to be prevalent in
the private boarding schools
of England"
Admiral Rickover suggested
a congressional effort to
change this juvenile nom
sense" He also said many
young officers make little at
tempt at further study after
graduation.
West Points public informa-
ton department yesterday re-
leased a letter written last May
praising academy standards.
The letter was from DR.. Ewald
B. NyQuist, chairman Of the
Commission on Institutions of
Higher Education, Middle
States Association Of Colleges
and Secondary Schools, follow

The letter commended the
academy as an outstanding
institution" with dedication
to excellence" and standards
and procedures for distin-
guished work."

Protest on
Missile Sites
By the Associated Press

The Air Force says building
long-range missile sites close
to existing air bases won't in
crease the danger to nearby
cities. The cities already are
in enemy target areas.
DR.. James E. Mcdonald of
the University Of Arizona has
protested against building
launching sites for intercon-
tinental ballistic missiles near
large population areas.
But an Air Force spokesman
said yesterday that these areas
are enemy targets anyway, be-
cause Of their proximity to the
air bases.
The spokesman said the sites
are being built near the ex-
isting air bases because:
/. The bases can supply and
operate the launching sites.
2. The Air Force, in some
instances. already owns the
missile land as part Of the base
territory.
1T must be noted" the
spokesman continued, "that
the construction of completely
new. self-sufficient missile IA
cilities in such areas as isolated
sections Of the Rocky Noun
tainS would not be feasible in
terms Of initial costs, time of
construction, high costs of sup
port facilities and other factors
Of this nature"
He added. however, that in
certain cases the Air Force
would build sites in the Rocky
Mountain area. As examples
he listed prospective launch
ing sites at Mountain Home,
