                              HON. MARTIN FROST

                       in the House of Representatives

                            THURSDAY, MAY 8, 1997

   * Mr. FROST. Mr. Speaker, I rise to congratulate the cosmetology
     department students and faculty at Duncanville High School for winning
     first place in the national American Set-a-Good-Example competition.
     And I also congratulate Duncanville High School for their selection as
     this year's Learning Improvement Award winner.

   * Duncanville High School is only the second school in the past two
     decades to win both these national awards in the same year. As a
     result, Duncanville High School will receive $7,500 in grant funds for
     these honors.

   * Mr. Speaker, I would also like to commend the Concerned Businessmen's
     Association of America for sponsoring this competition and also Dr.
     Phyllis Mack of Savannah, GA, for funding these grants. With the
     program now in its 11th year, it is an excellent tool to recognize
     outstanding achievements in our public schools, and to reward that
     success with funding to help further enhance education.

   * Mr. Speaker, I know that the young people of Duncanville High School
     worked hard to earn this recognition and by their participation have
     shown they can indeed take actions to better their own lives, their
     communities, and thereby improve the world we all share.

   * Once again I would like to send my heartiest congratulations to
     Principal Mike Chrietzberg and all the teachers, parents and students
     who share in these incredible achievements.
