                         TRIBUTE TO JIM WENSITS

  (Mr. DONNELLY asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute.)
  Mr. DONNELLY. Madam Speaker, I would like to rise to honor a 
reporter's reporter, Mr. Jim Wensits, from the South Bend Tribune, who 
has recently retired. Jim is a proud graduate of Purdue University from 
1966. Three days later, he started with the Tribune; and 40 years later 
he is retiring, after 20,000 articles and editorials. His hallmarks 
were integrity, accuracy, and fairness. His life's work made the South 
Bend Tribune a better paper and made our community a better place.
  So on behalf of everyone back home, Jim, we want to say thank you. We 
wish Jim a great retirement with his family and with his beloved 
country music. Good luck, Godspeed, and thank you from everyone back 
home.
