  WOMEN'S DEMOCRATIC CLUB OF MONMOUTH COUNTY PAYS TRIBUTE TO CHAIRMAN 
                           VICTOR V. SCUDIERY

                                 ______
                                 

                        HON. FRANK PALLONE, JR.

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                          Monday, May 24, 1999

  Mr. PALLONE. Mr. Speaker, on Sunday, May 23, the Women's Democratic 
Club of Monmouth County, NJ, will pay tribute to Mr. Victor V. 
Scudiery, who for the past 10 years has served as the Monmouth County 
Democratic Chairman.
  A native of Newark, NJ, Mr. Scudiery graduated from Seton Hall 
University. He served his country in the U.S. Army in both active and 
reserve duty. Since then, he has achieved the status of one of our most 
prominent citizens in the worlds of business and politics and in the 
civic life of our community. He is the president of Interstate 
Electronics in Hazlet and also oversees several other business ventures 
in New Jersey and Florida. But it is probably in his capacity as the 
Monmouth County Democratic Chairman that Vic Scudiery is best know.
  As if his chairmanship didn't keep him busy enough, Vic Scudiery 
devotes considerable time to many worthwhile causes. He serves on the 
boards of seven community organizations, and his energy, devotion and 
sincere commitment to giving something back to his community is felt in 
all of the endeavors that he is involved with. He is the chairman of 
the Bayshore Senior Day Center Board of Advisors, a lifeline to many 
area senior citizens, providing meals, companionship and daily 
activities. As chairman of the Buck Smith Memorial Foundation, he has 
overseen the granting of scholarships to deserving students. The 
Bayshore Hospital Health Care Center selected Mr. Scudiery as chairman 
of the Board of Trustees, where he is responsible for land acquisition 
and construction of facilities.
  In recognition of all his hard work and generosity--and in spite of 
his natural sense of modesty--Vic Scudiery has received countless 
honors from civic and charitable organizations throughout New Jersey, 
including the Bayshore Senior Center, Brookdale College, Knights of 
Columbus, Society of St. Anthony of Padua, the NAACP, and various 
municipal and Democratic organizations.
  On this occasion, Mr. Speaker, I am honored to join with the Women's 
Democratic Club of Monmouth County, and the many friends of Victor 
Scudiery, in paying tribute to a great chairman and one of our most 
distinguished citizens.
