                        Wednesday, June 12, 1996

  Mr. DELLUMS. Mr. Speaker, today I rise to share with you and my 
colleagues the outstanding professional career and community service of 
a distinguished constituent who has resided in the city of Oakland for 
over 25 years, Mr. Stan Hall. On the occasion of his 50th birthday, I 
wish to join with the community to pay tribute to his dedication and 
commitment that has endeared him to those he had worked with and earned 
him well-deserved accolades for over two decades.
  Stan Hall was born in Richmond, CA, to William and Hazel Hall. He is 
the seventh of eight children. Stan attended local schools in the 
Richmond Unified School District, graduating from Harry Ells High 
School. He was a member of the student council, drama class, the school 
band, the school's State championship basketball team and the Forensic 
Society. Stan received the State Championship Award for Oratorical 
Interpretation.
  He obtained his B.A. degree from San Francisco State University and 
his M.P.A. from Golden Gate University. He served as a faculty member 
of the Graduate School of Public Administration at Golden Gate 
University where he authored and published municipal management 
articles and presentations.
  Throughout his life, Stan has been active in the community, serving 
as a member or in leadership positions with a number of professional 
and community organizations. Some of the organizations of which he has 
held or currently holds positions with, are the United Way of the Bay 
Area, Bay Area Urban League, Mt. Diablo Therapy Center, CHAD, the 
NAACP, Municipal Management Assistants of Northern California, the 
American Society of Public Administration, the National Forum for Black 
Public Administrators, and the International City Management.
  In recognition of his achievements and dedication to the community, 
Stan was twice named an Outstanding Young Man of America, named in 
Who's Who in Black America, and Who's Who in California. Among the 
numerous awards for achievement and community service of which Stan has 
been the recipient are the Meritorious Service Awards from the city of 
Richmond, CA, from the Seaside Masonic Lodge, and from the U.S. 
Department of Labor.
  Stan is an active member of the Allen Temple Church of Oakland, CA, 
where he serves as a member of the public ministries committee, 
community development committee, the male chorus, and the sanctuary 
choir.
  I join in celebration of Stan's 50th birthday and his more than 20 
years of public service.
