                         CONCURRENT RESOLUTION


 
 Expressing the sense of the United States Congress that the Citizen's 
  Stamp Advisory Committee of the United States Postal Service should 
  recommend to the Postmaster General that a postage stamp be issued 
                  honoring coach Paul ``Bear'' Bryant.

Whereas the Citizen's Stamp Advisory Committee decides which individuals may be 
        honored by having a stamp issued in their honor;
Whereas many sports heroes of the past have been honored in this manner;
Whereas Coach Paul William ``Bear'' Bryant is the most successful coach in 
        college Division One football history;
Whereas Coach Bryant led his teams to 6 national championships, and holds the 
        record for the most post season bowl appearances, and the most bowl 
        wins;
Whereas Coach Bryant's winning history was a source of great pride to the 
        University of Alabama and the Nation;
Whereas Paul ``Bear'' Bryant is a modern hero and legend in the South; and
Whereas the Postal Service's 10-year waiting period for such an honor has 
        expired since ``Bear'' Bryant died on January 18, 1982: Now, therefore, 
        be it
    Resolved by the House of Representatives (the Senate concurring), 
That it is the sense of the United States Congress that the Citizen's 
Stamp Advisory Committee of the United States Postal Service should 
recommend to the Postmaster General that a postage stamp be issued 
honoring Coach Paul ``Bear'' Bryant.
