  CONGRATULATING STUDENTS ON ACCEPTANCE AS DELEGATES TO THE NATIONAL 
          ACADEMY OF FUTURE PHYSICIANS AND MEDICAL SCIENTISTS

  (Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania asked and was given permission to 
address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. THOMPSON of Pennsylvania. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate 
several students from Pennsylvania's Fifth Congressional District on 
their appointments as delegates to the Congress of Future Medical 
Leaders. These students will be delegates to the Congress of Future 
Medical Leaders to be held later this year in Massachusetts.
  The Congress is an honors-only program for high school students who 
want to become physicians or are going into a field devoted to medical 
research.
  Each of these students was nominated by their teachers and has 
demonstrated tremendous academic success. Many who attend the Congress 
will receive full academic scholarships as they look toward completing 
university courses.
  The six students selected to attend the Congress of Future Medical 
Leaders represent many communities in the Fifth Congressional District. 
Those chosen include: Courtney Craft from Bradford Area High School, 
Aubrey Feinour from Penns Valley High School, Kendra Gadley from West 
Forest Secondary School, Bella Huber from Central Mountain High School, 
Needhi Sharma from State College High School, and Laiken Turner from 
Mt. Union High School.
  I wish these students the best of success at the Congress in June and 
as their academic careers progress and continue.
