  Mr. CUNNINGHAM. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to pay tribute to my 
constituent, Mrs. Vella Nutt, who will be celebrating her 100th 
birthday on October 8, 1994. Mrs. Nutt has been a resident of Carlsbad 
by the Sea for 18 years. Her contributions to our community have been 
many. She was a devoted wife to her husband of 50 years, and she is a 
caring mother to their three daughters.
  Mrs. Nutt graduated from the University of California at Berkeley 
with a degree in health nutrition. She also excelled in athletics as a 
tennis champion and a basketball player. Throughout her life, she has 
witnessed numerous triumphs and tragedies, from the Great Depression to 
the Apollo Mission on the Moon to the advanced technologies in the 
health field today. I am extremely pleased to recognize Mrs. Vella Nutt 
on her 100th birthday, and I offer her my best wishes as she begins 
another 100 years.
