  Mr. SMITH of Michigan. Mr. Speaker, let it be known, that it is with 
great respect for the outstanding record of excellence he has compiled 
in academics, leadership and community service, that I am proud to 
salute Aaron Baker, winner of the 2000 LeGrand Smith Scholarship. This 
award is made to young adults who have demonstrated that they are truly 
committed to playing important roles in our Nation's future.
  As a winner of the LeGrand Smith Scholarship, Aaron is being honored 
for demonstrating that same generosity of spirit, intelligence, 
responsible citizenship, and capacity for human service that 
distinguished the late LeGrand Smith of Somerset, Michigan.
  Aaron is an exceptional student at Hudson High School and possesses 
an impressive high school record.
  Aaron has received numerous awards for his excellence in academics. 
Outside of school, he has received many awards for his involvement in 
the Jackson, Hillsdale, and Adrian Youth Symphony Orchestras.
  Therefore, I am proud to join with his many admirers in extending my 
highest praise and congratulations to Aaron Baker for his selection as 
a winner of a LeGrand Smith Scholarship. This honor is also a testament 
to the parents, teachers, and others whose personal interest, strong 
support and active participation contributed to his success. To this 
remarkable young man, I extend my most heartfelt good wishes for all of 
his future endeavors.
