rine Academy selects its ap. pointments from a state-wide pool rather than having Congressmen nominate Principal and Alternate candidates.

This means that have a fair chance of selection, he said. Meeds explained that his nom.

inees for Principal and Alter, nate positions reflect closely the scores complied on the U.S. Civ. 11 Service examination they took, as well as the consensus of the rating given by the Academy Review Board which interviewed most of them in Everett on December 14.
