                         RECOGNIZING EDDIE HART

  (Mr. DesJARLAIS asked and was given permission to address the House 
for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. DesJARLAIS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Eddie Hart for 
his induction into the Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame.
  A Californian from birth, Eddie won State and NCAA titles during his 
collegiate track and field career where he became known as one of the 
top sprinters in the Nation.
  Eddie's performance in the 1972 Munich Olympic Games earned him the 
title the ``World's Fastest Human'' and a gold medal for him and the 
United States of America.
  Today, Eddie serves disadvantaged youth in our community through his 
Eddie Hart All In One Foundation.
  Eddie's commitment to service and his athletic excellence has touched 
countless lives for generations.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in recognizing Eddie Hart, gold medalist, 
for his induction into the Bay Area Sports Hall of Fame. Eddie Hart was 
once the world's fastest human. He is still one of the world's best 
humans.
