Jack Hawkins was the football coach at an American college, and he was always trying to find good players, but they weren't always smart enough to be accepted by the college.

One day the coach brought an excellent young player to the dean of the college and asked that the student be allowed to enter without an examination. “Well” the dean said after some persuasion, “I’d better ask him a few questions first”

Then he turns to the student and asked him some very easy questions, but the student didn't know any of the answers.

At last, the dean said, “Well, what is five times seven?” The student thought for a long time and then answered, “Thirty – Six.”

The dean threw up his hands and looked at the coach in despair, but the coach said earnestly, “Oh, please let him in sir! He was only wrong by two.”
