qualify for admission, the first alter nate will, if qualified, be appointed; and in the event that neither the principal nor the first alternate qualifies, the sec ond alternate will, if qualified, be ap pointed.
These candidates must at date of ad mission be between the ages of 17 and 22 years.
All honor graduates are appointed subject to the same tests for mental and physical qualifications as are required of other candidates. See secs. 75.13 and 75.14.

d From the National Guard. To be eligible for appointment from the National Guard, an applicant must be an enlisted man in an active or inac tive status, of a unit recognized by the Federal Government and must, at date of admission, be a member of the Na tional Guard and between the ages of 19 and 22 years, and have served as an enlisted man in an active status in the National Guard not less than 1 year.
It is not essential that the service shall have been continuous; therefore, former service in the Guard may be counted in determining an applicants eligibility.
Similarly, service with a National Guard organization prior to its recognition by the Federal Government may be consid ered, the date o f enlistment of the sol dier governing, and not that of the rec ognition of the unit. Those applicants who contemplate enlisting in the Na tional Guard for the purpose of being appointed to the Military Academy should do so early enough to enable them to acquire the year of service by the date of admission in the year dur ing which they desire to enter.
For vacancies in the cadetships allot ted to enlisted men of the National
Guard, the candidates, not exceeding three for each vacancy, will be appor tioned, in number as nearly equal as prac ticable, among the States, the Territories, the District of Columbia, and the island of Puerto Rico, according to their en listed strength. W ith the exception of the candidates from the District of Co lumbia they will be selected by the gov ernors from successful competitors in a preliminary examination to be held be tween August 1 and November 15 of each year, such examination to be of a scope and nature similar to the regular exam ination for entrance to the United States Military Academy. The candidates from the National Guard of the District of Co lumbia will be similarly selected by the commanding general of the District of Columbia Militia.
Each candidate thus selected will be authorized by the War Department to re port for the regular Military Academy en trance examination, which he must un dergo in competition with the entire num ber of National Guard candidates, the available vacancies being awarded to those physically qualified candidates making the highest proficient averages in the order of merit established at the last-mentioned examination, irrespective of the State, Territory, or District to which their organizations may belong.
The selection being made throughout by competition, alternates cannot be con sidered under any circumstances. See Sec. 75.09. R. S. 161; 5 U. S. C. 22
