Seeking new Home for its West Point parts up famed Saint Cyr. The military school which produced most of France s great marshals and generals was looking for a new Home today in an Effort to regain the prestige which once made it the West Point of Europe. Bombed out of its original site in 1944, the historic 150-year-Ojd institution was installed with an other military school in Brittany. Prewar applicants for the Honor of wearing the school s Scarlet and Blue Cap numbered about 6,000 each about one sixth were accepted. In 1949, 1950 and 1951 Only about 600 applied and the once proud school was obliged to accept 60 per cent to make up its quota. Pay housing cited. In addition to the site officials blame the loss of prestige on officers pay that lags behind civil servant salaries. They also claim the housing shortage forces about 9,000 officers to live in hotels away from their families which further dulls the attractiveness of an army career. Officers themselves say the Mil itary profession has lost its for Mer prestige. Fathers no longer urge their sons to go into the army and Many famous traditionally military fam Iles Are like old soldiers fading away. Three senators and eight deputies All former students of the famed Academy Are fighting to have it rebuilt at the former site of Saint Cyr where students could profit from the name and traditions of the school.
