U.S.News & World Report wrote about a campaign to make Americans more physically fit. "After hearing the report comparing American youths to those of Europe, President Eisenhower told those present that he was 'shocked.' Now he is putting his personal influence and the power of the White House behind a move to find out what is wrong with American youth and what needs to be done to correct it."
