                  RECOGNIZING MILTON ``RUSS'' BULLOCK

  (Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DAVIS of North Carolina. Madam Speaker, I am glad to join the 
residents back home in honoring the service of Milton ``Russ'' Bullock.
  Milton Bullock, born in Princeville, North Carolina, is widely known 
for his tenor voice as a singer in the legendary group The Platters, 
with Billboard hits like ``(You've Got) The Magic Touch'' and ``Only 
You.''
  While he has captivated many worldwide, it is his impact in his 
hometown that I wish to applaud.
  After touring with The Platters, Milton Bullock returned to eastern 
North Carolina, where he ran for office and has been a dedicated 
community leader. As a commissioner on the Princeville Town Council, he 
has served as a role model for youth, helped with disaster assistance, 
and preserved the rich history of Princeville, which is the first 
African-American settlement in the Nation.
  Milton Bullock has been on many stages. However, we are glad he 
didn't forget home.
  Milton, ``Only You.''
