this is a personal project of his. Something he's giving his own personal attention to: Mental health.

Yes?

Some kind of a national campaign, but he'll tell you about it himself.

RELEASE: 91-64

ENDEAVOUR FUND TO BE USED FOR TEACHER FELLOWSHIPS

During today's rollout ceremony of the new Space Shuttle orbiter Endeavour, NASA Administrator Richard H. Truly announced that he has created the NASA Endeavour Teacher Fellowship Program with the generous and heartfelt gifts donated to NASA by the public for the replacement orbiter. The program will award scholarships to American undergraduates studying to be teachers.

During the dedication, Truly told the audience that the generous contributions - sent as a tribute to and a show of support for the space program - will be invested in America's future. Truly said that, "As it worked out, Congress provided full funding for Endeavour. Therefore, today I wish to announce our plan to use this money to establish the Endeavour Teacher Fellowship Program."

Truly went on to say that the program, targeted for implementa-tion in FY 1993, "will support undergraduate students in teaching careers in elementary education, mathematics, science or technology."

Referencing President Bush's education strategy announced last week, Truly noted that "we expect that future recipients of Endeavour Fellowships will contribute to our President's and Governors' new strategy to revitalize America's education system toward excellence in the year 2000."

"Each time Endeavour flies, people who have given to this fund should take pride in the fact that they not only helped to provide this magnificent flying machine but also provided society with some of its most vital resources -- future scientists, engineers and technologists, backed up by a population literate in these subjects."

SCOTT: The crew hasn't had near enough transition time with all the new equipment. And the engines are not yet tested at warp power. And an untried Captain.

KIRK: Two and a half years as Chief of Starfleet Operations may have made me a stale but I wouldn't exactly consider myself untried.
