 BOB DOLE AND JACK KEMP SHOULD NOT BE COUNTED OUT OF THE PRESIDENTIAL 
                                  RACE

  (Mr. SALMON asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. SALMON. Mr. Speaker, last Saturday my alma mater, the Arizona 
State Sun Devils, took on the No. 1 ranked, two-time defending national 
champion cornhuskers of Nebraska. The result should be a lesson to all 
the pundits who have already written off Bob Dole.
  The pundits and so-called experts said A.S.U. had no chance against 
Nebraska. They pointed out that Nebraska had a 37 game winning streak, 
and that Nebraska had not been shut out in a regular season game since 
1973. The point spread, looking a lot like some of the recent 
presidential polls, predicted that Nebraska would win by 23 points.
  Yet Arizona State managed to shut out Nebraska 19-0.
  The experts said Arizona State could not beat Nebraska, but the 
experts were wrong. The experts also tell us that Bob Dole and Jack 
Kemp do not have a chance to beat a certain liberal currently living in 
the White House. We Sun Devils know better.
