asked Mr. Gray to come forward.                                                                                                 
                                                                                                                                
DAVE GRAY, staff to Senator  Donny Olson, bill sponsor, explained                                                               
that  the  resolution  seeks  to  commemorate  the  late  Senator                                                               
Ferguson.  Because the  capitol  building is  short on  committee                                                               
rooms  that  could  be  named   after  legislators,  the  sponsor                                                               
suggests that  it would be appropriate  to place a plaque  in the

first to appear and other  distinguished senator's names could be                                                               
added in the future.                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                
CHAIR GARY  STEVENS said it's  an interesting thought  and agreed                                                               
that  there  weren't  many  rooms in  the  capitol  that  weren't

SENATOR BERT STEDMAN asked if  they'd thought about how large the                                                               
plaque might be.
