  Mr. SMITH. Mr. Speaker, 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 Christin Jury, winner of 
the 1998 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, Christin 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, Michigan.
  Christin Jury is an exceptional student at Union City High School and 
possesses an impressive high school record. She has been involved with 
the National Honor Society. Christin is also involved with the high 
school band and the student council, S.A.D.D., and is a peer monitor. 
She is a member of the varsity basketball, volleyball, softball and 
track teams. Outside of school, Christin has been involved as a 
community service director, volunteers at a soup kitchen, and plays the 
piano.
  In special tribute, therefore, I am proud to join with her many 
admirers in extending my highest praise and congratulations to Christin 
Jury 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.
