   CONGRATULATING COLLEGE WORLD SERIES CHAMPION OREGON STATE BEAVERS

  (Mr. WU asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 
minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. WU. Mr. Speaker, we deal with such serious topics in this House 
of Representatives, and so I want to bring to the attention of this 
House and this Nation a very happy topic. I rise to congratulate the 
Oregon State University Beavers on winning the College World Series 
baseball tournament.
  This is indeed a Beaver Nation. After taking on UCLA, Stanford, 
Arizona, and USC, all sunny States, we in the rainy Northwest, with a 
team of kids from smaller communities all around the State, have 
successfully won a world championship. This is probably the first world 
championship since the Portland Trail Blazers won the NBA championship 
in 1977.
