                      Tuesday, September 20, 1994

  Mr. CLYBURN. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate April 
Christina Lowery of Florence, SC, who's biography has been accepted for 
publication in the 20th annual edition of Who's Who Among American High 
School Students.
  According to Who's Who, only 5 percent of the students from the 
Nation's 22,000 high schools are honored in Who's Who each year, so 
Miss Lowery should be commended for her achievement.
  Miss Lowery, the 14-year old daughter of Ulysses and Charlene G. 
Lowery, and the sister of Leonard R. Lowery, is currently a sophomore 
at Wilson Senior High School in Florence, SC.
  She is the recipient of President Clinton's Presidential Academic 
Fitness Award, a Wofford College Academic Award for Gifted and Talented 
students, Duke University's Mathematically and Verbally Gifted 7th 
Graders Award, the George Grice 8th Grade Scholar Award, a 9th grade 
academic award and an athletic award for track at Wilson Senior High 
School. Miss Lowery is also a member of the Wilson Senior High School 
Marching Band.
  Miss Lowery has been nominated to attend the Governor's School of 
Math and Science at Coker College in Hartsville, SC. She was also 
nominated to participate in Youth Leadership 94 at Columbia College in 
Columbia, SC.
  Miss Lowery has traveled in Europe, visiting France, Italy, and 
Switzerland. She is a member of the Girl Scouts of America, Teen 
Institute, Top Teens of America, and the National Junior Honor Society. 
Miss Lowery also is a member of Trinity Baptist Church, where she 
serves on the intermediate usher board, sings with the intermediate 
choir, and is active in the Junior Missionary Society.
  Mr. Speaker, I commend Miss Lowery on her many outstanding 
accomplishments and activities, and wish her the best as she continues 
her formal education.
