       TRIBUTE TO THE CARL AND GLESSIE YOUNG COMMUNITY AUDITORIUM

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. IKE SKELTON

                              of missouri

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, March 6, 2002

  Mr. SKELTON. Mr. Speaker, let me take this means to recognize the 
city of Marshfield, Missouri, and the generosity of Carl and Glessie 
Young on the grand opening of the Carl and Glessie Young Community 
Auditorium. During a recent visit to Webster County, I attended the 
grand opening of this facility, which will serve the community and the 
students in Marshfield for many years to come.
  The auditorium was made possible through a local bond issue and a 
generous donation from Carl and Glessie Young. This facility will be 
home to community and school plays, musical performances, concerts and 
speech and debate competitions. It will provide a teaching facility for 
the nearby schools.
  Mr. Speaker, the citizens of Marshfield can be proud of their new 
21,000 square foot, state-of-the-art facility. I know the Members of 
the House will join me in congratulating all of Marshfield on 
completing this fine addition to their community.
