Question No. l. "Since we walk
a great deal we have noticed
that the calves of our legs are
enlarging. How can we reduce
them? Also, does bicycle riding
increase or decrease them?"
Try Exercises
Bicycle riding increases rather
than decreases. However, you
would have to do an awful lot OF
strenuous riding to have this do
more than firm the legs. For
SHINING the calf do the follow
ing exercise: Lie on the bed. Lift
your left leg upward as far as
comfortable. Pull the toes back
toward your head. Relax toes
and return leg to the bed. The
knee is stiff throughout the
exercise. Do the same thing with
the right leg and continue, al
ternating left and right.

Other items in the Administrations omnibus tax

Senators Seek Release of
us. Fishermen Seized for
Invading Foreign Waters

WASHINGTON, R-Nine At
lantic and Pacific Coast senators
joined Friday in asking Congress
to require the State Department
to obtain the immediate release of
American fishermen seized for in
vading foreign territorial waters.
The office of Sen. Saltonstall
R-Mass) said the proposed legis
lation is being co-sponSored by
Saltonstall and eight other Sena-
tors including Sen. Magnuson
D-Wash.
Magnuson said the legislation
is needed because of claims Of
foreign countries to jurisdiction
over waters above the continental
shelf.
The bill would apply to seizures
occurring beyond the normal
three-mile limit recognized by the
United States.
Magnuson explained the bill
was needed because several Cen
trail and South American coun-
tries claim offshore waters far
beyond the three-mile limit. He
said Mexico has challenged the
right of us. fishermen to fish in
waters of the Gulf Of Mexico and
the Pacific coast off the Mexican
coast.

McKay's Authority
Broadened to Sell
AlaskaPublicLa

From the Office Of the Governor
JUNEAU-Gov. B. Frank Heint-
zleman announced Thursday that
President Eisenhower has signed
a bill broadening the authority of
Secretary Of the Interior to sell
or lease public lands in Alaska to
the territory and its political sub
divisions and giving the secretary
authority to sell or lease such
lands to nonprofit organizations
for recreational or other public
purposes.
The act amends the Recreation
Act of 1926 which often, because
of its narrow authorization to the
secretary, required that public
lands be disposed of for public
purposes by the Congress. This
has resulted, the governor said, in
numerous minor bills, all requir-
ing congressional attention.
Gov. Heintzleman explained
that the act, H.R. 1915, provides
that before making the land avail
able to the territory, a political
subdivision or a nonprofit corpor-
alton or association the secretary
must have proof that the lands
will be used for an established or
definitely proposed project. No
lease can exceed 20 years but
leases would be renewable at the
discretion of the secretary of the
interior.
The governor noted that nom
profit organizations often have
sought to lease lands to establish
camps and other projects, but be-
cause of his lack of authority, the
secretary heretofore has been I'M
able to execute such leases. The
enactment Of this measure, the
governor said, will help promote
maximum utilization and devel-
opment of public lands and the
resources on such lands.
The act does not apply to lands
in any national forest, park, mon
ument, wild life refuge or to any
lands set aside for the use or ben
eft of Indians.

area OF innocence CnlS Time, TO
the age of IL to be specific, and
his recall of its detail is sharp
and sure. Unfortunately, neither
so sharp nor so sure was a first
performance which aroused more
of a clinical interest than an
emotional one in the fate Of the
plays wistful hero.
Apart from the performances
of John Kerr and young Clay
Hall in the older-younger broth
er roles, and the impact of a
stunning set by 10 Mielziner.
the impression left by "All Sum-
mer Long" is that it will be bet
ter later. It is clearly a play
written with greater pressure
than it is acted by the cast di-
rected by Alan Schneider, who
also directed its showcase pro-
duction at Arena Stage last sea-
son.
This is particularly true of the
climactic scene in which young
Willie Munson's world comes
topping down, less in pathos
than in confusion, and with
overtones of comedy. This is OBJ
viously not the way Mr.. Ander-
son wrote Cali Summer Long"
a work by no means Indifferent
Tn the comedy of boyh0od but
more deeply concerned with its
potential of establishment.
The episode two acts OF the
Nationals first play OF the
season is the sensitively wrought
case history of Willie Munson.
It is concerned with Willie's
insecurity, his sense Of being
unwanted in a family whose
other children are older. his
awareness of his fathers hos
tility toward him and his
mothers kindly incompetence to
help him grow up.
All these are implicit in the
boys dilemma in getting a
retaining wall built to protect
the family home from the river
which is rapidly eating away the
bank. While his father hopes
that the State will undertake
the project, his mother feels that
it may safely be left to Provi-
dence, and his married sister
yearns to get away before the
river comes, Willie is obsessed
to get to work.
In all the otherwise indiffer-
ent world, however, Willie finds
one ally. This is an older,
crippled brother who has sur
vived the next worst the MunSon
home had to offer of selfishness,
ignorance and misunderstanding.
He not only joins Willie in the
all-summer- long project of build
ing the wall but he also
offers him the haven OF an
understanding love.
This is a touching relation
ship and the warmth of its
playing by Actors Kerr and Hall
is the merit and the promise
Of "AlI Summer Long"
AS in "Tea and Sympathy"
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1954-09-07

Mr.. Anderson Is def enough to
sidestep the dominance of theme
over character. He is moved by
the anguish of growing up in
a world of numbed and self
centered adults, but this is
Willie's story. The general is
implied in the particular of
Willie's wanting to be wanted,
his vague awareness of sex. his
puzzlement about nearly every
thing, and above all, his fight
to save his home.
The older brother role, SO
knowingly played by Mr.. Kerr
(the hero of "Tea and Sym
patty" last season., is in many
respects the dominate one in the
new Anderson play. Willie, him.
self, has the inarticulateness of
IL. and the self effacing shyness.
It is Don, the older crippled
brother who is the plays angry,
eloquent, understanding spokes-
man, who if he cannot make the
older Munsons see their inept-
ness, can make them uncorn-
Portable in it.
"All Summer Long" is bril-
liant in it's tracing Of the rela-
tionship between the two broth
ers, a quality accented in the
playing of Washington's young
Hall as well as in Kerr's own.
Both the playwright and Di-
rector Schneider bring to these
more understanding than they
show toward the other charac-
tiers Of "A1l Summer Long," Less
clear. and not merely because
they are less sympathetic. are
the portraits of the others with
the slight exception of the sis
ter, q girl whose whole hope in
life rests upon her beauty. She
is well played, by the way, by
Carol Baker.
There is little definition in the
churlish father of the Munsons,
played by Ed Begley;; very little
more in the kindly intentioned,
totally incompetent mother i'm
personated by June Walker.
A more carefully reasoned
view of these, possibly a mere
matter of time, would intensity
the drama of Willie's hauntingly
insecure boyhood.
Mr.. Mielziner's set for "All
