  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, it is with deep sadness that I inform the 
House of the death of Paul N. Doll of Jefferson City, Missouri.
  Paul Doll was born on April 4, 1911, in Hamilton, Missouri, a son of 
Ernest E. and Emma Louise Colby Doll. He was a 1928 graduate of 
Hamilton High School and a 1932 graduate of Kidder Junior College. He 
received a bachelor's degree in 1936 and a master's degree in 1937 in 
agricultural engineering from their University of Missouri-Columbia. In 
1984, he received an honorary doctorate from the University of 
Missouri.
  Doll's career in public service and agriculture began immediately 
after his graduation in 1937. He was a county extension agent

with the University of Missouri Extension Service for several counties 
from 1937 to 1944. A resident of the Jefferson City area since 1944, he 
was employed with the Missouri Department of Resources and Development 
from 1944 to 1947. He was manager of the Missouri Limestone Producers 
Association from 1947 to 1954. From 1954 until his retirement in 1976, 
he was executive director of the Missouri Society of Professional 
Engineers.
  Paul Doll was also active in the community. He was an elder of the 
First Presbyterian Church, treasurer of the Presbyterian Synod and 
president of the Men of the Presbyterian Synod. He was past president 
of the Jefferson City Rotary Club and a district governor of Rotary 
International. He was a member of Alpha Gamma Rho and Tau Beta Pi 
fraternities. Active in many University of Missouri organizations, Paul 
Doll was a board member and past officer of the Agricultural 
Engineering Council and a board member of the Engineering Advisory 
Council and the Alumni Alliance. A member of the Alumni association, he 
received its Distinguished Service Award in 1979. He also was a 
registered lobbyist for MU.
  Mr. Doll was an Eagle Scout and merit badge counselor for the Boy 
Scouts of America; board member and committee chairman of the Jefferson 
City Engineers Club; board member of the Central Missouri United Way; 
volunteer for Meals on Wheels; chairman of the Greater Jefferson City 
Committee; and a registered engineer in Missouri.
  Paul Doll is survived by his wife, Mary R. ``Meg'' Doll; his son, 
Robert; two daughters, Mary Beth Huser and Anne C. Comfort; and eight 
grandchildren. I know that this body joins me in expressing sympathy to 
the family of this great Missourian.
