Mr. and Mrs. Charles BelU left Saturday to spend the summer at their cottage at Sand Lake Blaik CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE 22 other prep grid stars had a six-week-expense-paid vacation at the Academy this summer. MacDonald was quoted aa saying the boys received often of easy appointments to the Academy and special help in passing the strict entrance requirements. At Flint, the youth said the interview was a "misrepresentation of facts." Blaik said MacDonald had told his office that the remarks attributed him were "garbled" and "gave an entirely erronous impression." MEANWHILE, the Naval Academy also was brought into the recruiting picture when an 18-year-old end from Barrington, 111., said he had taken all-expense paid tours of both Annapolis and West Point, but finally decided to go to the University of Washington.

Stephen Roake a six-foot, one-inch, 180-pound pass-catcher, said he and his father looked over West Point and Annapolis in May and that he took a refresher course in mathematics to permit him to meet the West Point requirements. Roake's fattier said his son was accompanied by two other athletes in his trip to Annapolis Dan Os-sinski, a teammate at Barrington, High, and Clarence (Bud) De Moss. an outstanding athlete at York Township High, in Elmhurst. a Chicago suburb. IN ANNAPOLIS, Athletic Director Capt.

Jan C. Eddy said the players' names meant nothing to talk to Coach Eddie Erdelatz and other Academy football officials as soon as they were available. Blaik conceded that West Point recruits five to II high school players a year and that the athletes are invited to the Academy for a "cram course" to help them pass rigid co- trance examinations. He said the prospects' expense during the course are paid by interested civilian alumni. "If we did not do that, we would be unable to have any athletes in West Point able to play a normal schedule," Blaik stated.

THE COACH said the bovs or their coaches sometimes contacted ihim and he sometimes contacted the boys. "The whole procedure was perfectly proper and correct and not contrary to the rule? -of the associations to which we belong," he added. He said had written a letter expressing interest in West Point. Investigation showed the boy to be of a very high type, Blaik added, go he and others in a similar category were invited to the Academy. "The little informal tutoring had no official connection with the Academy." Blaik said.

The coach declared that persons interested in Army football sometimes helped an athlete to obtain appointment as well as to help him with subsequent entrance examinations. Army football teams had trouble winning major games before Blaik, himself a standout all-around athlete at the Academy, became rieHH coach in 1941. The two years, preceding Blaik's regime. Army wnn only four games while losing 11 and tielng three. Since then the Black Knights have won 75.
