                      CONGRATULATIONS, NOTRE DAME

  Mr. LUGAR. Mr. President, I rise today to join my fellow 
Hoosiers and football fans to congratulate the University of Notre Dame 
football team for an outstanding season. Beginning with the season 
opener on September 4, 1993, against Northwestern and culminating with 
the Cotton Bowl on January 1, 1994, against Texas A&M, Notre Dame again 
demonstrated an undaunted spirit. Under the leadership of coach Lou 
Holtz and athletic director Dick Rosenthal, the record of the 
University of Notre Dame football team exhibits year after year the 
product of intelligence, hard work, and determination to succeed. With 
a record of 10 wins and 1 loss, the team was always a contender for the 
national championship.
  Through the years, I have enjoyed watching the fierce competitiveness 
that always accompanies a Notre Dame football match-up. Regardless of 
opponent, the team always approaches the game with the same fervor. 
Testimony to Notre Dame's determination includes 7 Heisman award 
winners, 11 national titles, and an overall record of 722 wins, 211 
losses, and 41 ties. Please join me in congratulating the Notre Dame 
football team for a job well done.
