             CONGRATULATING THE ROTARY CLUB OF CARSON CITY

 Mr. HELLER. Madam President, today I wish to congratulate one 
of my home State's finest community organizations, the Rotary Club of 
Carson City, for its 75 years of service to the Carson City community.
  The Rotary Club of Carson City has been committed to their ideal of 
``He Profits Most Who Serves Best'' for three quarters of a century. In 
1937, Hans Jepson and Rev. John L. Harvey formed the Carson City Club 
with 25 members on their chapter roll. Today, the Rotary Club in Carson 
City has grown to over 90 members who live by their motto ``Service 
Above Self'' while providing vitally important community service to the 
Carson City area.
  In addition, the club has been committed to fostering and promoting 
the educational pursuits of students in Carson City. Each year, they 
award a 4-year college scholarship to a non-traditional student, as 
well as sponsor high school students to participate in an international 
youth exchange program. The Carson Rotary Club also recognizes 
excellence in the classroom and academic achievement by honoring a 
local student of the week and teacher of the month throughout each 
school year.
  The Rotarians are an important example of the kind of dedicated 
service which makes our communities great. Today, I ask my colleagues 
to join me in congratulating the Rotary Club of Carson City for 75 
years of service to the people of Nevada.
