                    in the house of representatives

                         Thursday, June 7, 2001

  Mr. OXLEY. Mr. Speaker, it is my honor today to offer my best wishes 
to the Lima (Ohio) NAACP at its annual radiothon this Saturday, June 9.
  This event, to be held at Lima's Bradfield Center, is designed to 
increase local awareness of the chapter, attracting new members from 
the community and renewing the dedication and commitment of current 
members. The radiothon broadcast will be live on Lima's WIMA-AM from 
1:00 to 4:00 PM.
  The Lima chapter president, Mrs. Daisy Gipson, and my good friend 
Malcolm McCoy deserve particular recognition for this hard work with 
the organization. I applaud them and their colleagues in the local 
chapter for their positive influence on young people in and around 
Lima, and wish them every success with Saturday's radiothon.
