  Mr. SMITH of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, let it be known, that it is with 
great respect for the outstanding record of excellence she has compiled 
in academics, leadership and community service, that I am proud to 
salute Kathryn Sosinski, winner of the 1996 LeGrand Smith Scholarship. 
This award is made to young adults who have demonstrated that they are 
truly committed to playing important roles in our Nation's future.
  As a winner of the LeGrand Smith Scholarship, Kathryn is being 
honored for demonstrating that same generosity of spirit, intelligence, 
responsible citizenship, and capacity for human service that 
distinguished the late LeGrand Smith of Somerset, MI.
  Kathryn Sosinski is an exceptional student at Bronson High School and 
possesses an impressive high school record. Kathryn's involvement in 
student government and school activities began her freshman year and 
continued through her senior year as the class president. She is a 
member of the National Honor Society and the Varsity Club. Kathryn was 
a member of the homecoming court and attended Girl's State. Outside of 
school, Kathryn has spent much of her time volunteering for several 
local organizations.
  In special tribute, therefore, I am proud to join with her many 
admirers in extending my highest praise and congratulations to Kathryn 
Sosinski for her selection as a winner of a LeGrand Smith Scholarship. 
This honor is also a testament to the parents, teachers, and others 
whose personal interest, strong support, and active participation 
contributed to her success. To this remarkable young woman, I extend my 
most heartfelt good wishes for all her future endeavors.
