CONGRATULATING COLLEGE WORLD SERIES CHAMPION OREGON STATE BEAVERS
(Mr. WU asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. WU. Mr. Speaker, we deal with such serious topics in this House
of Representatives, and so I want to bring to the attention of this
House and this Nation a very happy topic. I rise to congratulate the
Oregon State University Beavers on winning the College World Series
baseball tournament.
This is indeed a Beaver Nation. After taking on UCLA, Stanford,
Arizona, and USC, all sunny States, we in the rainy Northwest, with a
team of kids from smaller communities all around the State, have
successfully won a world championship. This is probably the first world
championship since the Portland Trail Blazers won the NBA championship
in 1977.
