  Mr. FROST. Mr. Speaker, today I recognize the outstanding efforts of 
the Fort Worth Alumni (Beta Tau Lambda) Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha 
fraternity, which marked its 60th anniversary on this past Monday, 
December 4th.
  Throughout its 94-year existence, the Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity has 
been an exemplary organization, with a mission committed to public 
service. The Fort Worth Alumni Chapter has done a tremendous job of 
furthering Alpha Phi Alpha's mission and has worked to make a real 
difference in our North Texas community.
  The Fort Worth Alumni Chapter has taken action in our community to 
curb juvenile delinquency, foster job training skills and community 
safety programs, and combat teen pregnancy by educating young men.
  Through the years, the members of Alpha Phi Alpha and the Beta Tau 
Lambda chapter have become leaders of their community, a testimony to 
the strength of their education as members of this fine organization.
  Congratulations again to the Beta Tau Lambda Chapter of Alpha Phi 
Alpha fraternity on your 60th anniversary. I know you will continue 
serving our Fort Worth community throughout the next 60 years.

                          ____________________
