    The word ``regulations'' is substituted for the words ``such rules 
and regulations''. Since the Naval Academy is now accredited, the words 
``from and after the date of accrediting of said Academy'' are omitted 
as executed.

science upon living graduates of the Academy who were graduated before 
the date of accrediting of the Academy and who meet the requirements of
