                        TRIBUTE TO ADAM ANDERSON

 Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. President, today I show my 
support to Adam Anderson for his heroic efforts at the McIntyre Ski 
Area. He, along with Shawn Page, Alex Marion, and Andrew Emanuel, 
helped to save the life of a fellow skier.
  While enjoying a day of recreation at a ski slope, Adam noticed a 
child hanging from the seat of a chairlift. The skiers formed a human 
net to catch the boy. When the boy fell, Adam and his friends were able 
to save his life and prevent him from sustaining any serious injuries.
  I commend this heroic act of Adam Anderson. He helped to save the 
life of a fellow citizen and brought comfort to a worried family. I 
feel that as long as we have such dedicated citizens our Nation will 
continue to be strong. Adam exemplifies the ideals of a Granite Stater 
and I am honored to represent him in the U.S. Senate.
