                       Thursday, October 1, 2015

  Mr. YOUNG of Iowa. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to honor Mr. Ed Littler, 
Jr. of Adair, Iowa. Ed has been awarded the very first Ed Littler 
Achievement Award from Adair-Casey Schools. The school has established 
the award to be presented to anyone who has contributed to the A-C 
Bomber family with large amounts of their personal time and hard work.
  Ed has covered the local sports scene for the Adair News since 1948 
and rarely missed a home or away football game until his retirement 
this year. He was cited for his contributions to all Adair-Casey sports 
and to the community. Ed played football as a quarterback for the Adair 
High School Rockets and graduated from Adair High School in 1947.
  Mr. Speaker, I applaud and congratulate Ed for receiving this award 
and for dedicating his time and efforts in supporting the Adair-Casey 
Schools. I am proud to represent him and his family in the United 
States Congress. I know that my colleagues in the United States House 
of Representatives will join me in congratulating Ed on this 
outstanding achievement.
