Whereas the mortality rate for ovarian cancer has not signifi-

40 years ago; 
Whereas all women are at risk for ovarian cancer, and 90 
percent of women diagnosed with ovarian cancer do not

breast or ovarian cancer, are at a higher risk for the dis-

Whereas there is currently no reliable early detection test for 
ovarian cancer; 
Whereas many people are unaware that the symptoms of 
ovarian cancer often include bloating, pelvic or abdominal 
pain, difficulty eating or feeling full quickly, urinary 
symptoms, and several other symptoms that are easily

committed to doing only that which he believed was right 
in his own heart, regardless of any political cost; 
Whereas his small-town values of hard work and commitment

SEC. 303. NORTHERN FRONTIER.
(a) CONGRESSIONAL FINDINGS.—The Congress finds
that—
(1) the area comprising Tryon County, in the
Mohawk Valley of the State of New York, and the
Country of the Six Nations (Iroquois Confederacy),
known during the American Revolutionary War pe-
riod as the ‘‘Northern Frontier’’, offers excellent op-
portunities to study a little known or understood as-
pect of the American Revolution—the frontier expe-
rience;
(2) the Northern Frontier territory was ex-
tremely valuable to both sides of the American Revo-
lutionary War and was contested because of its geo-
political, military, agricultural, transportation, and
commercial attributes;
(3) because a complex social, economic, and po-
litical society was emerging on the Northern Fron-
tier, the Continental Congress established the North-
ern Indian Department to conduct affairs there, and
the English made the area, and its Indian popu-
lation, the centerpiece of the English strategy to
split the colonies;
(4) due to the struggle to control the Northern
Frontier, privation and hardship were inflicted upon
nearly all who lived there, a diverse mix of ethnic
and racial groups willingly and unwillingly thrust
into the struggle for independence, leaving many
dead, homeless, orphaned, or dislocated by the end
of the hostilities;
(5) the tensions on the Northern Frontier
reached such a pitch that hostilities erupted, pitting
neighbors, families, tribes, and clans against each
other, and led to a bloody, savage, and destructive
battle;
(6) new interpretations and interdisciplinary
studies of this human drama are not only necessary,
but timely because of the abundant supply of assets
in the area, including sites, buildings, celebrations,
folklore, and collections, many safely preserved and
many at risk; and
(7) if these Northern Frontier assets can be
thematically related and portrayed for the education
and enjoyment of Americans and foreign visitors, an
important and often overlooked chapter in the herit-

(3) despite the benefits derived from play for both 
children and parents, time for free play has been signifi-
