Well thank you very much, Congressman de la Garza, for those very kind remarks. You came to Congress with my father after the 1964 elections, in January of 1965, and you have had a great record. And the country owes you a great debt of gratitude for your service to your State of Texas and to this Nation, and thank you very much for participating in honor of Congressman Quillen tonight. Next, I talk about--I read the editorial in which the Bristol newspaper said that Congressman Quillen's model is one that others can only hope to emulate. We have three gray freshmen from Tennessee who are striving very hard to follow the great example set for them by Congressman Quillen, and all are doing outstanding jobs. And I would like to call on, first, Congressman Ed Bryant.
