  ARIZONA STUDENT'S HISTORY PROJECT CHOSEN FOR WHITE HOUSE VISITOR'S 
                                DISPLAY

 Mr. KYL. Mr. President, I congratulate Miriam Strauss of 
Apache Middle School in Sierra Vista, AZ for her National History Day 
Project entitled, ``Franklin D. Roosevelt's Fireside Chats.'' Miriam's 
project, along with seven others from around the Nation, was chosen 
from among more than 2,000 finalists for presentation and display at 
the White House Visitor's Center on June 15, 2005. Her project was part 
of this year's National History Day theme, ``Communication: The Key to 
Understanding.'' The National History Day program includes half a 
million students in grades six through twelve in all 50 States and the 
District of Columbia, so the selection of Miriam's project for 
presentation is a tremendous honor. I wish this budding historian the 
best of luck in the future.
