          petitioner John P. Hahn can exclude from income wages earned                
          during 2000 from working in Antarctica and petitioners can                  
          exclude from income wages earned during 2001 from working in                
          Antarctica.                                                                 
                                     Background

          On his 2000 Federal income tax return, petitioner excluded wage             
          income earned and received during 2000 for services performed in            
          Antarctica.  During 2001, petitioners performed services at                 
          McMurdo Station in Ross Island, Antarctica.  On their 2001                  
          Federal income tax return, petitioners excluded wage income                 
          earned and received during 2001 for services performed in                   
          Antarctica.                                                                 
                                     Discussion                                       
          I.  Summary Judgment                                                        
               Rule 121(a) provides that either party may move for summary            
          judgment upon all or any part of the legal issues in controversy.           
          Full or partial summary judgment may be granted only if it is               
          demonstrated that no genuine issue exists as to any material fact           


               2  Respondent concedes that no penalty pursuant to sec. 6662           
          is due from petitioner John P. Hahn for 2000 or from petitioners            
          for 2001.
