WEST POINT, Aug. 81.—This is.by way of cutting

There does not seem to be a clear understanding of why Tom (Shorty) McWilliams could play in the backfield for Mississippi State college when he was a West
Point appointee at the time.
Here's how that came about. When McWilliams sought to enter the academy it was soon established he did not have sufficient credits. The academy doesn't care where a prospective cadet gets his credits, but get them he must. Mississippi State because it was near his home, This is a rather common practice. Few West

about these commitments. A year ago Lou Kusserow tried to get into the academy, lacked a sufficlency of credit and turned to Columbia where, between his classroom labors he started in football. Army had every reason to expect that Kusserow, assuming his classroom labors had proved profitable, would return this year.
Indeed, this was the understanding

Little, a thoroughly honorable coach, made any attempt to influence Gusserow's decision to disregard his commitments.

This doesn’t jibe with the facts.

For reasons best known to the young men themselves, more football players tried to get into the academies than was customary in the past; or during the peace years.
