On the recordSeptember 19, 2012
Mr. President, in honor of Arnold Palmer, and the presentation of his Gold Medal to him on September 12, 2012, in the U.S. Capitol, for a lifetime of service to his Nation and contributions in the game of golf which has earned him the title of ``The King''. I ask that this poem penned in his honor on this occasion by Albert Caswell be printed in the Record. There being no objection, the material was ordered to be printed in the Record, as follows: The Legend of Latrobe (By Albert Carey Caswell) The . . . The Legend of Latrobe . . . Upon the fairways of our lives . . . All on her greens what we have strived! So recorded all on these the score cards of our lives . . . That which all in the end so improved our lies . . . Can only but so be found all in how we've so led our lives . . . Teeing off, crushing it all in these our life's drives! For when it is all so said and done, as a Champion, will we so hold the cup of life over our heads as won? Who have we so touched and inspired, finishing the rounds of our lives to reach even higher! Pin High, On The Green On One . . . All in what is really so important to be won! When, all in this the tournament we call life which we've begun! Out upon those fields of green which now so runs! Will we so settle for par, or shoot way below in the tournaments of lives my son? Standing out as a Champion All In The Game of Life, all in what we have so said and done! Will we so make the cut before our setting suns!…
