Tower's New Design Introduced in This Issue The Tower has a new look. Beginning with this issue, the magazine will feature a new design. "We wanted to update our rypeface and graphics to be more contemporary,'' says Sharon Kehrer, MBA, Vice President of Administrative Affairs. "During the past few years, we've had good feedback from readers on the use of four-color photography and graphics, first on the front cover, and then on the back cover as well. Readers also have responded well to our insert card for sending alumni news items and prospective student referrals. We hope everyone will like the format changes to the inside of the magazine just as much." Priorities for the re-design included avoiding rypefaces too small in
size for reader comfort, and avoiding an overly "busy'' look with a large quantiry of graphics, says Kehrer. "As always, we will continue to use as many photos with professional and human interest and news value as we can produce and accommodate in the Tower's space," says Kehrer. "We know that readers enjoy seeing photos, and that they help make the
magazine more visually interesting and reader-friendly. We're very grateful to Logan's Media Production staff and to our student photography employees for assisting us in this area." Along with the new design elements, this issue includes an updated version of the college directory (p. 27).

During this year's Homecoming, Logan's Sports/Wellness Complex, on which construction began recently, was named in honor of Dr. William M. Harris of Alpharetta, Ga. Dr. Harris is pictured above, at left, with Logan President Dr. George Goodman, and speaking to attendees at the site dedication ceremony (at right). A 1938 graduate of Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Ia., Dr. Harris is president of the Foundation for the Advancement of Chiropractic Education (FACE), which has given more than $5 million to chiropractic educational causes. A $50,000 fund-raising challenge issued by

Its developer, modern Olympics founder Pierre de Coubertin, created the event to reflect the duties of Napoleonic couriers. It includes five components: fencing, pistol shooting, a 300-meter swim, horseback riding (including jumping) and a 4,000-meter cross country foot race. Larsen competed in World Cup competitions to qualify for the Pan Am Games. Her past accomplishments include a 2nd-place finish in the women's pentathlon at the 1994 U.S. Olympic Festival in St. Louis and competition in the 1998 Worldwide lronman triathlon, held last October on the island of Kona in Hawaii. The lronman includes a 2.4-mile
Dr. H arris helped Logan succeed in its campaign to raise more than $600,000 for construction of the Sports/Wellness Complex on the college's 112-acre campus in the St. Louis suburb of Chesterfield. Construction plans for Logan's Sports/Wellness Complex include an indoor work-our center, game room
and student government offices. The outdoor area of the complex will have a basketball court, tennis court, sand volleyball court, pavilion, baseball an d soccer fields and a one-quarter-mile jogging track.
swim, a 112-mile bike ride and a 26.2mile run. Larsen placed 3rd in her age group (18-24) with a time of 11 hours, 12 minutes and 35 seconds. Larsen, who is 24, grew up in Eagle, Wis. She was Scholar-Athlete of the Year for 1993 and 1994 at New Mexico Military Institute. While attending Marquette University, she competed on the Air Pistol Team and placed 2nd in the 1996 NCAA Division II Team Competition. After enrolling at Logan College, Larsen became active on campus in a long-distance cycling group that rode from St. Louis to Florida in August 1997 and August 1998 in "Tour de Spine" rides to raise funds for the American Spinal Research Foundation. In addition to celebrating her accomplishment at this year's Pan Am Games in early August, Larsen also was preparing for her August 28 mar-
riage to Vaho Iagorashvili, who received a bronze medal in the men's pentathlon at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul. Iagorashvili is now rated first in the world in the event. Larsen's sponsor, St. Louis-area fund-raising coordinator and nutritional consultant is Hugh St. Onge of Chesterfield, president of the Nutritional Services Division of Palmyra, Wis. -based Standard Process Inc. St. Onge's division trains doctors and athletes in the use of nutritional supplements for general health maintenance and elite athletic training. Anyone wishing to support Larsen's Olympic training fund can send a check made out to "Marathon Management Group" to Marathon Management Group, West 339 S. 5524 Woodland Wonderland Ct., Eagle, WI 53119.

Dr. Filson Named Team Chiropractor for St. Louis Rams Dr. Ralph Filson, Professor of Chiropractic Sciences at Logan, has served as a chiropractic consultant with the St. Louis Cardinals for the past two years. His work with the baseball team began in 1987 and evolved further in 1990 as a result of his relationship with former Cardinals manager Joe Torre, who joined the team that year. Torre became Dr. Filson's friend and patient during the time that he lived in St. Louis. Torre is now manager of defending world champions, the New York Yankees; Dr. Filson and Torre remain in close contact. Dr. Filson began adjusting homerun champion Mark McGwire in 1997. In 1998, Dr. Filson continued caring for McGwire as the slugger prepared for the effort that led to his exciting home-run record of last season, and he also provided care for other Cardinals players. He continues to work with McGwire and other Cardinals at home games and in the team's training room this year. In August of this year, Dr. Filson's excellent reputation among the
Cardinals players, medical staff and management brought about a new opportunity: He was appointed team chiropractor for the St. Louis Rams. Dr. Filson began treating players at the Rams' training camp and has been in the process of working out a treatment schedule with the team for the football season. "Logan is extremely fortunate in having many faculty members who, like Dr. Filson, are nationally known and respected within the profession and who possess top-level skills and
knowledge within their specialties," says Logan President Dr. George A. Goodman. "With interest in natural approaches to health care among the public and among elite athletes flourishing, we believe that Dr. Filson's work will contribute much to the development of positive perceptions of chiropractic. Our students will benefit as Dr. Filson continues to expand his clinical skills by caring for top-caliber athletes, and as he brings his evergrowin~ body of knowledge to his classes.

Alumni News Bulletin Logan graduate Dr. James Mertz of Albuquerque has been elected as the new president of the American Chiropractic Association. Alumnus Dr. James D. Edwards of Emporia, Kan. was elected to the ACA Executive Committee. More information will appear in our next issue.
News from the Profession: Legislation Calls for Full Integration of Chiropractic in DOD Health System . 1:he American Chiropractic Association has announced that pending leg1slanon could result in the integration of chiropractic care into the U.S. Department of Defense health care system. Proposals are included in Fiscal Year 2000 Defense Authorization Act bills prepared during the summer by the House of Representatives and Senate Armed Services Committees. The ACA expects the House and Senate to vote on the bills some time after the congressional recess in September. Bill numbers are 1401 (House) and 1059 (Senate). The legislation is the culmination of a chiropractic demonstration program for the Department of Defense that began in 1995 and has been expanded to health care facilities at 13 military bases. Logan President Dr. George A. Goodman has been one of five chiropractic representatives serving on the DOD Oversight Advisory Committee that has provided advice and direction during all phases of the chiropractic demonstration program. Under current law, the pilot program will expire at the end of Fiscal Year 1999, resulting in cessation of chiropractic care at the 13 facilities where it now exists. The DOD is scheduled to evaluate the results of the program after it expires. As a result of enormous support for the program on the bases, the language in the pending bills requires the DOD to make recommendations that could lead to full, permanent integration of chiropractic in the military health care system. The ACA and the Association of Chiropractic Colleges lobbied Arms Services Committee members to include the language in the bills. The ACA extended thanks to three legislators who provided strong support of the effort: Rep. Steve Buyer (R-IN); Rep. James Talent (R-MO); and Senator Srrom Thurmond (R-SC).

Dr. Willie Epps Offers Insight into Bringing Chiropractic Message to the African-American Community Logan's 1999 Homecoming featured numerous outstanding speakers, including Logan trustee Willie Epps, PhD, who gave a presentation on outreach to the African-American community. A Logan College trustee since 1998, Dr. Epps was elected vice chairperson of the Logan Board of Trustees in 1999. He has a doctor of philosophy degree in educational curriculum and instruction from Kansas State University in Manhattan and has 36 years' experience as an educator and administrator in elementary education and higher education. Dr. Epps is currently serving as director of the Southern Illinois University - Edwardsville East St. Louis Center, which has an annual operating budget of $11 million. He previously directed SIU-E's Head Start program and National Science Awareness Demonstration Program at the East St. Louis Center. Dr. Epps' interest in becoming involved with Logan College began when he met Logan President Dr. George A. Goodman. "I was very impressed with Dr. Goodman's leadership skills," says Dr. Epps. "When I visited the college, of course, I was also very impressed with the campus, which is one of the most beautiful that I've ever seen. And as I became more familiar with chiropractic, I came to think of it as one of the most noble professions that I've ever encountered." As a black professional, Dr. Epps has been active in a variety of corporate marketing research efforts focused on the black community, including a campaign for 7-Up. As an educational administrator, he has been responsible for marketing his "product" to everyone from federal grant administrators to parents to candidates for jobs on his 3 13-member staff. "Although you can't view all minority communities, or all AfricanAmerican communities, the same
way," Dr. Epps told attendees at his Homecoming presentation, "I think there are a few generalizations that would apply to a large number of people. "First of all, the African-American community is virtually an untouched market for chiropractic," said Dr. Epps. "There are some myths about chiropractic that many African.Americans believe, and which you will have to work on overcoming."
African-Americans include beliefs that chiropractors can "hang up shingles" with little or no education; and that chiropractic care is mainly for people who've been injured in automobile accidents, says Dr. Epps. "And some of you may carry your own myths about African-Americans," said Dr. Epps. "For example, many white professionals and business people think that we have no buying power. But we have a collective buying
Dr. Epps greeted Logan students during a break in his seminar.
Dr. Epps told of a man he m et who did not benefit from medical care of a foot injury; subsequently, the man decided to visit a chiropractor. "He never put his hands on me; he rushed me in and out," the man told Dr. Epps. ,,"I felt that he didn't want me there. No matter how infrequently such situations occur, stories about them circulate widely among AfricanAmericans, Dr. Epps cautions, increasing perceptions that there is a lack of sensitivity among DCs. Other myths common among
power of $392 billion. Among blacks who are between the ages of 25 and 34, 82 percent have graduated from high scho~l and 12 percent are college graduates. How can the chiropractic profession reach and effectively bring its message to African-Americans? Dr. Epps said that getting across the concept of chiropractic as preventive health care that often can help reduce the need for large quantities of medication is critical. (continued on page 12)
--------------------------------------------~.....------------------------------------------

"You also need to educate people about how chiropractic care affects overall health," says Dr. Epps, "and about how you can help them with nutritional issues, stress management, understanding the importance of physical fitness and exercise, and ways to prevent health problems." As outlets for advertising to the black community, Dr. Epps recommends radio stations with large African-American audiences. "Television ads also can be effective, but radio usually costs less and you can reach many people that way," he said. Another option that Dr. Epps suggests is networking through black churches. "If you treat a black minister and deliver good care, you will get wonderful word-of-mouth," he said. "Everyone in the congregation will want to know who's treating their minister."
Dr. Epps told attendees at his presentation that the four leading causes of death among African-Americans are heart disease, stroke, cancer and homicide. "Three out of the top four killers of black Americans are conditions that can be alleviated by the preventive
health care that you provide and through lifestyle changes that you can help patients make," he says. "I think that chiropractic has a lot to offer the black community. You just need to educate, educate and educate AfricanAmericans about how much you have to offer."

Logan Continues Innovation in Continuing and Professional Education The Postgraduate Department at Logan College of Chiropractic continues working to expand and re-energize Its programmmg. "We are bringing new opportunities to faculty members and seminar participants with innovative seminars that can't be found elsewhere," says Dr. Ralph Barrale, Director of Postgraduate Education at Logan. ''fu we work to develop new and unusual options that also satisfy the most current information needs of Chiropractic practitioners, we are committed to maintaining the tradition of in-depth instruction that our programs have always featured." Last spring, the department experimented with a non-weekend program, offering a free, four-hour weeknight seminar for doctors licensed in Missouri and Illinois. The seminar featured 12 Postgraduate Department faculty members speaking on a variety of topics. "We received positive feedback from doctors who enjoyed the opportunity to obtain a few continuing education credit hours without giving up a weekend, and who also liked having a chance to experience a variety of presenters in a short amount of time," says Dr. Barrale. "So, this fall Logan will offer a similar free "sampler seminar." There also will be several 12-hour, multi-doctor seminars, one focused on chiropractic sports injury care and the other featuring a number of expert technique instructors. "This winter," adds Dr. Barrale, "we'll be offering more sports-specific special seminars like the baseball, football and golf programs we began last spring. For example, there will be a martial arts - specific seminar December 4 and 5."
New Programs Set to Begin In December, Logan will begin a 48-hour program in insurance consult-
ing. A revamped version of Logan's former Chiropractic Assistant program also begins this fall, with Susan Albers, DC as instructor. "The new CA program is truly designed to help CAs learn to be as much help to doctors as possible," says Dr. Barrale. Next year, Logan College will start rwo new, 300-hour programs that will prepare participants to sit for Diplomate exams administered by the ,American Chiropractic Board of Nutrition (ACBN) and the American Chiropractic Rehabilitation Board (ACRB). The new programs will start ih January and April of next year, respectively. The nutrition program will cover numerous subjects, including biochemistry and physiology of nutrition, nutrient functions, nutritional needs throughout the life cycle, nutritional aspects of management of disease in all of the body's systems, nutritional considerations related to physiological stress, nutrient-nutrient interactions and drug-nutrient interactions and reactions. With multiple instructors specializing in various topics, the rehabilitation program will address basic science applications in trauma cases, assessment and testing methods, rehab treatment protocols, case management issues, training for strength, endurance and flexibility and specialized skills for high-risk populations.
Kinesio Taping Seminar Scheduled On the weekend of November 13-14, a speaker from the Albuquerque, N.M.-based Kinesio Taping Association will introduce the technique to Logan seminar participants. Kinesio Taping is utilized in the care of athletes in Japan, the United States and other countries. The technique is based on kinesiology concepts, in particular the role of muscles in circulation of venous and
lymph flow and control of body ternperature. The Kinesio Taping practitioner places elastic tape on designated areas of the body, with the goals of maintaining range of motion while supporting affected muscles, removing congestion, activating the endogenous analgesic system and correcting joint and tissue misalignments.
Ongoing Programs Offered in Multiple Locations Logan's ongoing, long-term programs - including Chiropractic Orthopedics and Chiropractic Neurology Diplomate courses and Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician (CCSP), Basic Acupuncture and Advanced Acupuncture certification programs - continue to be offered in multiple locations. After its upcoming introduction in Australia, the Chiropractic Neurology Diplomate program will be available on four continents. Seminars in this specialty are scheduled for fall in St. Louis, Detroit, New York City, San Francisco, Denver, Toronto, Amsterdam and Asia (alternating berween Japan and South Korea). Possible additional locations for the neurology program during the coming year include Denver, Las Vegas and Huntsville, Ala. "With new seminar options, numerous location choices and strong traditional offerings, Logan hopes to help doctors start the new millennium with both their knowledge and their spirits refreshed," says Dr. Barrale. "We think we have something for every doctor, so we hope our alumni and friends will give serious thought to attending Logan seminars." For more information on upcoming seminars, see the schedule on pages 22-23 of this magazine or call 800-842-3234.

Costa Rican Legislators Visit Logan Campus Logan College recently was the site of a fact-finding mission by three Costa Rican legislators. The visitors sought information about chiropractic and chiropractic education, for use in promoting legislation that would allow for recognition and regulation of chiropractic in Costa Rica, and information about educational opportunities for Costa Rican students. Marisol Clachar, who has introduced legislation concerning chiropractic recognition in the Costa Rican parliament, visited campus with fellow legislators and supporters of her bill, Roger Vilchez and Tobias Murillo. They were accompanied by 1995 Logan graduate Shawn Dill, DC, who is president of the Costa Rican Chiropractic Association and by Francko Cartin Brenes, assistant to Dr. Dill and the group's translator. The group spent a day touring Logan's campus and participating in question-and-answer sessions and round-table discussions of chiropractic education. Logan representatives who met with the group included Logan President George A. Goodman, DC, PICC; William L. Ramsey, PhD, Vice President of Academic Affairs; Norman W, Kettner, DC, DACBR, Chairperson of the Logan Radiology Department; Patrick Browne, MA, EdD (C), Dean of Student Enrollment; Gary Sanders, PhD, Special Projects Coordinator; and Ralph Barrale, DC, Director of Postdoctoral and Related Professional Education.

Logan College of Chiropractic hosted the 3rd annual Kevin Carter Parent & Youth Summer Football Camp on Saturday, June 5. Boys and girls from 7 to 13 years old and their parents learned fundamentals of football from Carter, a defensive end for the St. Louis Rams, and Carter's NFL colleagues. The players taught tackling, positioning, injury prevention, proper stances and many more football fundamentals. Strength and conditioning coaches and Carter's parents presented a parents' seminar covering training-related topics including nutrition, conditioning, game strategy, injury awareness and coaching. The camp attracted about 150 participants, including children and parents. Julie Drummond, Director of Community Relations at Logan, organized the event. KSDK-TV (Channel 5) filmed the event, airing a report on the following morning's news broadcast.
