20 Marines to Test
1908 Standards of
Physical Fitness
By FRANK CORMIER
WASHINGTON W — At Presi
dent Kennedy’s suggestion, 20 Ma
rine officers will attempt a 50-mile
hike next week—to see if they can
move forward with the vigor de
manded of leathernecks by Presi
dent Theodore Roosevelt.
The unusual military exercise,
to be conducted at Camp LeJeune,
N.C., stemmed from the recent dis
covery of a long-forgotten execu
tive order in which Roosevelt pre
scribed fitness standards for Ma
rine officers.
Gen. David Shoup, the Marine
commandant who shares Kennedy’s
interest in fitness, sent the 54
year-old document to the President
as an historic curiosity.
Kennedy decided, however, it
was more than a curiosity. He re
sponded with a proposal Shoup
find out “how well our present
day officers perform the tests spe
cified by President Roosevelt.”
In a matter of hours, Marine
headquarters prepared a detailed
directive ordering a test by officers
of the 2nd Marine Division at
Camp LeJeune. At least 10 captains
and 10 lieutenants, selected to pro
vide a representative sample of
personnel, will take the test. Shoup
warned they should not be told
about the experiment in advance.
Once the officers are assembled,
they will get these marching or
ders:
Walk 50 miles in no more than
three days, with actual walking
time and rest stops limited to 2
hours. Shoup noted, rather point
edly, that some officers of 1908
covered the course in a single day.
Upon reaching the final half
mile, the officers must double
time 200 yards, rest for 30 seconds,
then double-time for 300 yards,
rest a minute, and wind up with a
200-yard dash to the finish line.
Actually, this could be more
than a test of Marine vigor. The
entire White House staff may have
a stake in the results—particular
ly Pierre Salinger, Kennedy’s
press secretary.
As Kennedy noted in his letter
to Shoup, Theodore Roosevelt “laid
down such requirements not only
for the officers of the Marine Corps
but, when possible, for members
of his own family, members of his
staff and cabinet, and even for un
lucky foreign diplomats” who were
dragooned into hiking with him
through Washington’s Rock Creek
Park.
The President told Shoup if the
test indicates “the strength and sta
mina of the modern Marine is at
least equivalent to that of his
antecedents, I will then ask Mr.
Salinger to look into the matter
personally and give me a report on
the fitness of the White House
staff.”
Although American women are
getting taller nd heavier, there’s
still a big selection for those men
who like a small girl. Some 15
million women atre only five feet
tall — or less.

U.S. Will Fire Unarmed
Missiles This Summer,
New Mexico to Utah
LOS ANGELES UP—The United
States will fire a series of un
armed missile warheads from Utah
to New Mexico this summer, the
Los Angeles Times reported today.
One of the prime objectives of
the $17.5-million Project Athena,
the Times added, will be to help
find ways to distinguish quickly
between real incoming warheads
and decoys.
The story by Aerospace Editor
Marvin Miles said most of the ter
ritory over which the missiles will
pass is sparsely populated. They
will travel about 470 miles from
near Green River, Utah, to White
Sand, N.M.
The program calls for safety
measures that will permit destruc
tion of rockets from the launch
site if their trajectories are not
correct.
Civilian Advisers Are

Exercise Timber Line, Alaskan
Command maneuver scheduled for
this month, was a highlight of the
meeting of the United States Army,
Alaska, Civilian Advisory Commit
tee meeting at Fort Greely last
weekend and which Boyd Har
wood attended.
Timber Line is scheduled for
Feb. 11-21. There were 17 advisors
from Anchorage, Fairbanks, Nome,
Juneau and Delta Junction.
Weather cooperated with the
civilian advisers by dropping to
minus 30 degrees, to give them a
good idea of the problem to be
faced by the more than 8,000
Army and Air Force men taking
part in the maneuver.

Hof fa Manages To
Get Bonding
DETROIT UP)—Teamsters Presi
dent James Hoffa’s reported bond
ing problems, apparently were
solved Monday when an Indian
apolis bonding firm announced it
will write 95 per cent of the surety
bonds covering Hoffa and other
national and local officers of the
union.
Hoffa charged last week that the
Justice Department was exerting
pressure on bonding companies to
prevent them from insuring Team
sters’ funds. Later, however, he
told a congressional committee he
had no first-hand knowledge of
this.
Present bonds of Hoffa and fel
low Teamster officers expire Fri
day and Hoffa said he might be
forced to shut down all union fin
ancial activities since the Land
rum - Griffin Act requires union
officials to post bonds covering 10
per cent of all funds they handle,
if the funds exceed $5,000 a year.
