                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. MIKE ROGERS

                               of alamaba

                    in the house of representatives

                        Tuesday, March 16, 2010

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Madam Speaker, I would like to request the 
House's attention today to pay recognition to Ms. Zula Battle who is 
celebrating her 108th birthday on March 22. The Wadley Town Council in 
Randolph County has helped highlight this special occasion by declaring 
March 22 as Zula Battle Day. According to Mayor Jim Dabbs, Ms. Battle 
has had more birthdays than the town itself.
  On March 19, Ms. Battle is planning to celebrate her birthday at the 
home of Tom Radney. Many local residents close to Ms. Battle are 
planning to be in attendance, and the invitation is open to everyone in 
town.
  Ms. Battle's 108th birthday is such a remarkable event that deserves 
all the praise given. I wish Ms. Battle a very happy birthday, and a 
wonderful Zula Battle day.
