H. RES. 262
Congratulating Barry Bonds for setting the record of 73 home runs in
a single season.
IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
OCTOBER 11, 2001
Mr. OSE submitted the following resolution; which was referred to the
Committee on Government Reform
RESOLUTION
Congratulating Barry Bonds for setting the record of 73
home runs in a single season.
Whereas in the history of Major League Baseball, no player
has hit as many home runs in a single season as San
Francisco Giants’ outfielder Barry Bonds, who on Octo-
ber 7, 2001, hit his 73rd home run of the 2001 season
to set the new record;
Whereas during the 2001 season, Barry Bonds had the high-
est slugging percentage in a single season at .863, and
joined Babe Ruth as the only hitter ever to finish a sea-
son with a slugging percentage over .800;
Whereas during the 2001 season, Barry Bonds had an on-
base percentage of .515, joining only 4 other players who
have finished a season over the .500 mark in the past
100 years, and Bonds is the first to do so since 1957;
•HRES 262 IH
Whereas during the 2001 season, Barry Bonds broke the sin-
gle-season record for walks with 177, and has hit the ma-
jority of his home runs in situations that helped his team
to either tie or take the lead in that particular game;
Whereas Barry Bonds has been a beacon of quiet resolve and
hard work and an inspiration to his teammates and all
Americans; and
Whereas Barry Bonds was born in Riverside, California, is a
graduate of Sierra High School in San Mateo, California,
attended college at Arizona State University, and now
both plays professional baseball and resides in California:
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the House of Representatives con-
gratulates Barry Bonds for setting the record of 73 home
runs in a single season.

Whereas Antonio Meucci, the great Italian inventor, had a
career that was both extraordinary and tragic;
Whereas, upon immigrating to New York, Meucci continued
to work with ceaseless vigor on a project he had begun
in Havana, Cuba, an invention he later called the
‘‘teletrofono’’, involving electronic communications;
Whereas Meucci set up a rudimentary communications link in
his Staten Island home that connected the basement with
the first floor, and later, when his wife began to suffer
from crippling arthritis, he created a permanent link be-
tween his lab and his wife’s second floor bedroom;
Whereas, having exhausted most of his life’s savings in pur-
suing his work, Meucci was unable to commercialize his
invention, though he demonstrated his invention in 1860
and had a description of it published in New York’s
Italian language newspaper;
Whereas Meucci never learned English well enough to navi-
gate the complex American business community;
Whereas Meucci was unable to raise sufficient funds to pay
his way through the patent application process, and thus
had to settle for a caveat, a one year renewable notice of
•HRES 269 EH
an impending patent, which was first filed on December
28, 1871;
Whereas Meucci later learned that the Western Union affil-
iate laboratory reportedly lost his working models, and
Meucci, who at this point was living on public assistance,
was unable to renew the caveat after 1874;
Whereas in March 1876, Alexander Graham Bell, who con-
ducted experiments in the same laboratory where
Meucci’s materials had been stored, was granted a patent
and was thereafter credited with inventing the telephone;
Whereas on January 13, 1887, the Government of the United
States moved to annul the patent issued to Bell on the
grounds of fraud and misrepresentation, a case that the
Supreme Court found viable and remanded for trial;
Whereas Meucci died in October 1889, the Bell patent ex-
pired in January 1893, and the case was discontinued as
moot without ever reaching the underlying issue of the
true inventor of the telephone entitled to the patent; and
Whereas if Meucci had been able to pay the $10 fee to main-
tain the caveat after 1874, no patent could have been
issued to Bell: Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That it is the sense of the House of Represent-
atives that the life and achievements of Antonio Meucci
