                         HON. MICHAEL G. OXLEY

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, May 25, 1995
  Mr. OXLEY. Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to 
recognize an exemplary citizen from the Fourth District of Ohio, George 
Adams. George is retiring after serving as the principle of St. John 
High School in Delphos, OH, for 15 years. During his quarter century of 
service, over 1,750 students have graduated from St. John, benefiting 
from George's enthusiasm and commitment to the young people of his 
school and community. Among numerous other educational organizations, 
George has donated his time to the Ohio Association of School 
Administrators and the Ohio Education Association. His service extends 
beyond his work with the Delphos schools. As the father of four 
children, George provides a fine example of citizen combining service 
to his community with family life. Having served on the board of 
trustees of the St. John Parish Foundation, the Bishop's Education 
Council, and the Knights of Columbus, George has proven extraordinary 
benevolence to his church. I would like to thank George for his service 
to both St. John High School, and to the Delphos community. Through his 
earnest dedication, George serves as a role model for each citizen.
