                    TRIBUTE TO DAVID B. HARSHBARGER

                                 ______


                          HON. CHRISTOPHER COX

                             of california

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 20, 1994

  Mr. COX. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize David B. Harshbarger, 
who is retiring from his post as marine department director of the city 
of Newport Beach, CA.
  Born in Portland, OR, and raised in southern California, David 
Harshbarger has devoted his life to preserving the lives of others. He 
has served the residents and visitors of Newport Beach for more than 
three decades. Dave began his distinguished career as a seasonal 
lifeguard in 1958, but moved quickly through the ranks within the 
department, eventually becoming the director in 1976--the top position 
responsible for overseeing the number of men and women who keep our 
southern California beaches safe and protected.
  Mr. Speaker, it is with great pleasure that I ask my colleagues to 
join with me in honoring David B. Harshbarger. It is fitting that all 
of us join with the family, friends, and the community of Newport 
Beach, CA in recognizing his lifelong service and dedication to public 
safety.
