                   IN RECOGNITION OF VINCENT ALBERICI

                                 ______


                        HON. CHARLES E. SCHUMER

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, October 4, 1994

  Mr. SCHUMER. Mr. Speaker, one of the pleasures of serving in this 
legislative body is the opportunity we occasionally get to acknowledge 
publicly the outstanding citizens of our Nation.
  I rise today to honor Vincent Alberici for his outstanding record of 
community service. Mr. Alberici has been Secretary of Glendale Civilian 
Observation Patrol [G-COP] for many years. He is also serving as 
President of the Kiwanis Club of Glendale and has been chairman of the 
Anti-Graffiti Volunteers Committee [A.G.V.] for 4 out of it's 6 years 
existence. If more people followed his belief that services has no 
boundaries and no limitations, our country would surely be in better 
shape.
  Anyone who lives in a city knows that graffiti isn't just a visual 
blight, it represents a loss of control over the very neighborhoods in 
which we live and work. It is no wonder that his successful program to 
keep our streets clean are famous throughout Queens and all of New York 
City. I hope that his important work along with Detective Keith Casey 
of the 104th Police Precinct in Queens and G-COP vice-president, Frank 
Kotnik, will continue to be a model for community service across New 
York and the United States.
