                       SAVING THE ANAHEIM ANGELS

  (Ms. LORETTA SANCHEZ of California asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend her remarks.)
  Ms. LORETTA SANCHEZ of California. Mr. Speaker, in 1965 my siblings 
and I used to play in the construction site of Anaheim Stadium. In 1966 
the Angels played their first season in Anaheim, California. It took us 
from 1966 to 2 years ago to win a World Series, and boy were we proud 
of our Anaheim Angels.
  Today I rise in strong support of the city of Anaheim in its quest to 
save the Anaheim Angels. The new owner wants to change the name to the 
Los Angeles Angels. The city of Anaheim does not want that. The fans of 
the Anaheim Angels do not want that. Even the City of Los Angeles does 
not want them named Los Angeles Angels. See, Anaheim is not Los 
Angeles.
  So today I hope that Artie Moreno, the new owner, will realize that 
they are champions and they are the Anaheim Angels and they should 
remain the Anaheim Angels.
