                    OLYMPIC CHAMPION KENNY HARRISON

  Mr. ASHCROFT. Madam President, I rise today to recognize the 
accomplishments of Kenny Harrison of Bridgeton, MO at the games of the 
XXVIth Olympiad. Mr. Harrison won America's fourth track and field gold 
medal by jumping 18.09 meters in the triple jump. This jump, in 
addition to winning Olympic gold, also established a new U.S. and 
Olympic record. The State of Missouri, and the entire Nation, takes 
great pride in Mr. Harrison's record setting performance.
