                         Tuesday, March 1, 1994

  Mr. FOGLIETTA. Mr. Speaker, I rise on this occasion to salute the 
Pennsylvania College of Optometry as it celebrates Save Your Vision 
Month, March 1994.
  To stress the importance of preventive vision care for senior 
citizens and young children, the Pennsylvania College of Optometry has 
entitled the theme of Save Your Vision Month 1994, ``Being Together--
Seeing Together.'' The theme focuses on the relationship between 
grandparents and grandchildren and to encourage grandparents to bring 
their grandchildren to free visions screenings offered throughout the 
city. Services will be conducted by the college's community eye care 
service teams. The kickoff program will be held at the South 
Philadelphia Community Center.
  Save Your Vision Month 1994 is another of the many occasions on which 
the Pennsylvania College of Optometry has admirably demonstrated their 
dedication and attentiveness to their belief in proper vision care for 
all. I salute the people of this fine institution for their 
distinguished service to the community.
