Cadet Downey Faces West Point Dismissal Over Plebe Affair
New York UPI report says West Point cadet Kevin Downey, penalized with 110 demerits and 110 hours of full dress marching for fraternizing with plebe Cynthia Bianca, may be dismissed.

A hearing set by U.S. District Judge Charles Sifton follows a prior injunction preventing the Honor Board from convening to probe whether Downey knew Bianca before her admission. Downey, 21, from West Babylon, N.Y., allegedly continued the friendship after meeting at a football game.
