                       TRIBUTE TO DIANNA ANDERSON

                                 ______


                          HON. EDOLPHUS TOWNS

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Thursday, March 24, 1994

  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, I want to commend Dianna Anderson for her 
heroism. On Thursday, February 17, 1993, she dashed into harm's way to 
save a 2-year-old child who had strayed into the street. As cars 
whizzed by on the street, they miraculously missed the very small 
child. Mrs. Anderson's instincts carried the day and she scooped up the 
child and carried it to safety.
  I am proud to salute Mrs. Dianna Anderson, a community hero, who 
risked her life to save someone else. A young child has much to look 
forward to, and our community owes a tremendous debt to Mrs. Anderson 
for her courage and presence of mind.
