Hearing Starts
On Reaches Run
Span March 80
House Unit Sets
Dutes for D. c. Area
Bridge Arguments

Arguments Tor ana against q
new Potomac River bridge at
Reaches Run will be heard
March 80 and 81 by House
District subcommittee which is
considering Washington area
bridge needs.
Committee officials announced
definite dates for the hearings
yesterday.
The House unit, headed by
Representative Kearns, Republi-
can, of Pennsylvania already
has held hearings on proposed
bridges at E street NV. and at
Jones Point, Alexandria. The E
street project is the District
Highway Departments choice
for the top-priority need to re-
lieve downtown congestion.
Strongest champion Of the
Reaches Run proposal, submitted
as an alternate to the E street
bridge. is the National Capital
Planning Commission.
Span Near 18th Street Bridges.
The span, beginning at
Reaches Run on the Virginia
side of the river, would cross
the Potomac and Washington
Channel just downriver from
the existing Fourteenth street
bridges to tie into the proposed
Southwest IF street, freeway.
The planners urge that, as
part of the bridge project. Vir-
ginia approach road be built
along the river as far as Four
Mile Run. They argue that it
would serve areas in both Vir-
ginia and Washington which
need a new bridge the most.
District officials, In turn, con-
tend the greatest need is west of
Memorial bridge lnear E street,.
They question that city streets
would be able to absorb the cars
that would be poured into the
Fourteenth street area by a
Reaches Run bridge.
E Street Span Protested.
Bitterest protests against the
E street span were that it would
constitute an illegal and i'm
proper encroachment on Theo-
dore Roosevelt Island, in pass
ing over the memorial island and
dropping piers to it. After the
hearings, District officials sent
the subcommittee a drawing
showing that it would be possible
to build up the island and let the
bridge dip into a tunnel beneath
its surface.
Chairman KearnS said at the
time he thought the idea had
quite a potential" and said he
would consider it at the same
time as he gets the Reaches
Run bridge testimony.
Committee officials said yes
terday. however. that it was in
tended the March 30-31 hearings
would deal only with Reaches
Run. 1t was considered likely,
nevertheless. that the E street
design change might also come
UP for discussion.

Wash.
Brought back by truck to the
flreside of the Cardinal Club,
Justice Douglas was prevailed
upon to tell about this business
of lassoeing mountain lions.
I'VE were in Arizona" he said
land we were hunting lions with
dogs. We treed a tom. It is
difficult to laSso a lion in a tree
However. we tried. Then we
raised the moose on a stick. That
is the way it is usually done. The
lion fights with the rope and
gets his head in the moose. Then
the lion Is yanked from the tree
and someone has to grab his tail.
The lion is rolled over by twist
ing the tail. Then comes a very
delicate operation. Using small
ropes, a foot of the lion is
lassoed. usually the hind foot.
Then the rope is worked around
his back and a half-hitch taken.
THE same is done with q fore
foot. Then a stick with a coil
Of wire is poked at his head.
The lion fights the wire ans tho
coil is drawn closing his Jaws,
Then the disabled lion is
swung in an arc and carried
away.
I'VE took this lion to the ranch
Of Marvin Glenn. He uses lions
to train his dogs in tracking the
beasts. He will let one 60 and
set the dogs after him an hour
later.
I'VE also treed a female lion
but we shot her."
TV and Radio Men Appear.
The mixers around the fire.
place talking about the days
walk were impressed by the
number Of television men and
radio who had met them at the
occasional points where a road
goes down to the towpath. Some
were sure that they were parti-
cipating in the biggest national
story of the day. Others warned
that Senator Mccarthy was
probably topping it.
The Post and Times Herald
has another entry in this derby
The other walker is Robert Esta-
brook. the head of the editorial
page. Mr.. Estabrook is IS. The
expectation Of knowing observers,
however. is that Mr.. Pusey, So,
probably will finish strong.
Also along are DR. John H.
Cover, director Of the bureau of
business and economic research
at the University Of Maryland,
and Walter r. Sanderlin, pro-
fessor Of history at Washington
and Jefferson College at WASH
ington. Pa, who is making his
second trip. He first walked the
length of the canal in 1947.
But for the members Of the
Potomac Appalachian Trail Club
on the hike there is no doubt as
to the winner. Their prediction
is that only seven of the 80 men
still hiking will finish and their
selection is the man whose walk
ing pace they admire, the man
from Walla Walla.

CARDINAL CLUB. TOWN
CREEK, Md. Mar. 20. - The
racks and ruins of winter are
over.
A band of intrepid followers
of-the-leader hiking from Cum
berland to Washington on the
towpath of the Chesapeake and
Ohio Canal behind Supreme
Court Justice William o. Doug
las saw signs of spring on every
side today.
The shoots of box elder, the
bush which boys used to use to
cut whistles in the days when
everybody could make some
thing. were green. The peppers
were peeping. Boys were fish,
ing. Hawks were hunting. Pussy
willows were fuzzy. VS. of chat
tering geese were flying high
Observation-Disclosures bound.
Filled with the wonder Of
spring, the mixers were surprised
at how easy was the first day Of
the exacting 20 : mile q day
schedule.
First 8 Miles In Auto.
This was due to the first nine
miles, which were traverSed by
automobile. Washington was a
mere 180 miles instead of 189
miles from the starting point.
The first days walk to the Card
inal Club turned out to be a
mere IA miles. according to ped
ometers worn by scientific mixers
-12 miles according to the map
instead of the 21-mile sched-
uled.

mountain lions. has a way Of
roping his friends. Merlo Pusey,
editorial writer Of the Washing
ton Post and Times Herald.
doesn't feel like a lion this eve
ming but he does feel that he has
been roped.
It was Mr.. PuSey who mad
vertently started this walking ex-
pedition. The author Of the
Pulitzer Prize-winning biography
of Chief Justice Charles Evans
Hughes merrily wrote an edi-
torial advocating parkway on
the c & o Canal strip which is
owned by the Federal Govern
ment.
Every newspaperman. espec-
tally editorial writer's, like to see
their stuff In print. Mr.. Pusey
didn't quite say so but it may
have occurred to him today that
it would have been better If the
type had been thrown away.
:. Met Challenge.
The editorial resulted in a
letter from Justice Douglas chal-
lenging the writer to walk the
towpath with him and realize
the wonder Of this thread of will
derness entering the Nations
Capital from the mountains to
the west.
Mr.. Pusey. who has been train
ing for this event. by walking
from his home in Albemarle
street NV. to the POST Times
Herald building on L street felt
blister coming on one of his
toes after the first six miles Of
the relatively soft footing of the
'towpath.
Moleskin, a type of adhesive
tape favored by mixers, was
slapped on the bottom Of his
foot.
Your correspondent was
threatened with a similar blister
at the 12-mile mark. His rela-
tive immunity possibly was due
to his failing to walk the first
six miles. He had to telephone
q story about the start for the
first. Saturday edition of the
Star.
The end Of the scheduled walk
was the Cardinal Club, a As
year-old fishing and hunting
club established by Cumberland's Is
businessmen at the confluence
Of Town Greek and the Potomac.
Because - or IA miles was
such a short workout for the
first day, Justice Douglas pro-
posed walking five miles further
to the tunnel opposite Paw Paw.

Soop And Wafer
Not Enough In
Warm Weather

You need more than soap and
water for good grooming when
the weather gets warm. according
TO "A bulletin issued by the Mime
sofa State Medical association to-
day.
The reason why soap and water
alone won't do the job Is because
soap and water won't remove all
OF the bacteria. Remaining bacter-
la resume growth after short
time: and it is the activity Of
these bacteria on perspiraGon
which cause odor troubles at all
times OF the year. but especially
IN hot weather.
Efficiency OF new soap con-
tanning a drug called hexachlorine
or GIL. ATT or K-3i has been
hailed enthusiastically as "A do
odorant. but its effectiveness Is
still In doubt, the doctors say. And
fortunately. most commercial de-
odorants, used in addition TO soap
and water are safe both for skin
and clothing, II properly used,
What these preparations do Is
remain on the skin for hours, or
days, and they inactivatc growth
OF skin bacteria while they are
there on the other hand ordinary
soap and water, even doctored up
with antiscptics will not stop
bacteria activity for more than a
short time.
Children don't need dcodorant
preparations because their secre-
tory glands are not yet function
ing. the bulletin points out Gland
activity L. reduced in some older
people, too. and there are some
people at the age Of greatest
glandular activity who appear TO
have lcss perspiration troubles
than others For that. reason the
efficiency OF ony one cream or To-
ton may not be the same for
everybody who uses It.
Shaving underarm areas makes
any soap. cream or lotion more ef-
feCtive the bulletin concludes.
Those who wish to try out the de-
odorant soap with heXachlorine
are warned. furthermore. that the
effect. II any, IL supposed TO be
cumulative and ID will be destroy
ed II any other preparations are
used
