        CONGRATULATIONS TO ILLINOIS HIGH SCHOOL BASKETBALL TEAMS

  (Mr. DAVIS of Illinois asked and was given permission to address the 
House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of Illinois. Mr. Speaker, as we return from recess, all of 
us saw a great deal of basketball; and I want to congratulate three 
outstanding high schools in my district for having won championships: 
Westinghouse, State of Illinois Boys' Championship; Providence St. Mel, 
Elite 8 Illinois high school regional champions. And I might add that 
95 percent of all the students at this school go to college. I would 
also like to give accolades to Marshall High School for winning the 
city of Chicago's girls' championship under the leadership of Mr. 
Pitman and Dorothy Gaiter, who is the winningest female basketball 
coach in the United States of America. I congratulate all of them.
