                 AMERICAN LEGION AUXILIARY SCHOLARSHIP

 Mr. COVERDELL. Mr. President, I rise today to commend the 
American Legion Auxiliary, State of Georgia, and their efforts in 
assisting educational opportunities for fellow Georgians. Specifically, 
as it has recently come to my attention, they have distributed $10,125 
toward the education of 21 medical students in Georgia. In addition, 
$3,678.55, given by the Past Presidents Parley, was equally distributed 
to the following medical college students: Regina Lewis, of unit 107; 
Laura Sargent, of unit 64; Krista Nicole Swann, of unit 160.
  As we continue to strive to better our country and the educational 
opportunities it promotes, it is vital that we work in partnership with 
organizations like the American Legion Auxiliary so all of our fellow 
Americans may reach their goals.
