 SCHOLAR-ATHLETES FROM PENNSYLVANIA'S SEVENTH DISTRICT VISIT WASHINGTON

  (Mr. WELDON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute, and to revise and extend his remarks, and include extraneous 
matter.)
  Mr. WELDON. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to welcome and to pay tribute 
to 43 of the best and brightest young people that I have in my 
congressional district in Pennsylvania.
  Each year I invite every high school in my district to send their 
outstanding male and female scholar-athletes to Washington for a day so 
that we can share with them the experience of our Federal Government 
and have individuals who have been able to combine athletics with 
academics here in Washington. In the past we have had Senator Bill 
Bradley, who has been a very capable speaker. Today I will have Senator 
Ben Nighthorse Campbell. These are individuals who have combined 
athletics and academics in the pursuit of their career goals.
  I am very happy to have representatives here today from 24 high 
schools, from Delaware, Chester, and Montgomery Counties. I am proud of 
them. I am proud of what they have done, but, more importantly, 
they are the hope and the opportunity of the future for this great 
Nation. I look forward to working with them as the future leaders of 
America.

  Mr. Speaker, the list of the visiting scholar-athletes is included as
