Logan College to Host 1st National Symposium on Complementary and Alternative Cieriatric Healthcare Logan College will host the 1st National Symposium on Complementary and Alternative Geriatric Healthcare. The symposium will take place Saturday, April 29 and Sunday, April 30 on the college campus. Program directors for the symposium are Norman W Kettner, DC, DACBR, Chairperson of the Logan Radiology Department; John Morley, MB, BCh *, Director of the Division of Geriatric Medicine at Saint Louis University; and Nina Tumosa, PhD, Professor of Optometry at the University of Missouri - St. Louis. Dr. Kettner describes the meeting's purpose as "providing evidence (research)-based information about complementary approaches to caring for elderly patients." Keynote speaker for the symposium will be Candace Pert, PhD, research professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at Georgetown University Medical Center. Featured in Bill Moyers' PBS series, "Healing and the Mind," and in Moyers' book of the same tide, Dr. Pert is best-known for her research on information-carrying molecules known as peptides and their cellular receptors. Her 1997 book, Molecules ofEmotion
- Why You Feel the Wtty You Feel, describes a dynamic flow of information between peptides and receptors that provides a biological foundation for emotion. "We know that the immune system, like the central nervous system, has memory and the capacity to learn," says Dr. Pert. "It can be said that our intelligence is located not only in the brain, but in cells throughout the body, and that the traditional separation of mind and emotions from the body is no longer valid." Treatments, approaches and techniques to be highlighted in symposium
seminars include chiropractic, acupuncture, clinical nutrition, herbal medicines, homeopathy, behavioral and cognitive counseling, meditation and bioelectromagnetics (the emerging science that investigates the biological effects of the interaction of electromagnetic fields). Dr. Pert is one of 22 symposium speakers representing a variety of professions (seep. 4). Other featured speakers are Robert Mootz, DC, associat~ medical director for chiropractic of the State of Washington Department of Labor and Industries (keynote speaker for the symposium's

Alumnus Donates $100,000 to Logan College Dr. William Purser, a 1953 Logan graduate, has donated $100,000 to Logan College. Dr. Purser's donation was announced by Logan President Dr. George A. Goodman and Vice President of Institutional Advancement Donald McLain. "No words can express our appreciation of Dr. Purser's support of Logan," said Dr. Goodman. "Many of us share a great sense of gratitude to the college for the opportunities that it has brought us. Dr. Purser has expressed this feeling with an unusually generous gift that will be of great benefit to all Logan students and to our educational programs." McLain said that the college's plans for use of the gift would be announced later this year. "Dr. Purser chose to offer his gift with no specific targeting of the funds," said McLain. "The administration will evaluate options for use of the funds to produce the greatest long-term benefit to the college." Dr. Purser and his wife, Boots Purser, were honored during an oncampus reception held February 4. In attendance were administrators of the college, members of the Logan Board of Trustees and members of the Logan Alumni Association Board of Directors.
Memories of Chiropractic Practice, Gratitude to Logan Dr. Purser's enthusiasm for Logan evolved when he was a student receiving mentoring from then-Logan faculty member (and later president) Dr. William Coggins during the early 1950s. "This year is the 50th anniversary of my enrollment at Logan," says Dr. Purser. "I was thinking of making a significant donation to the college, and I liked the idea of doing so in conjunction with that anniversary." Dr. Purser brought maturity and life experience to his studies at Logan, having graduated from high school in
North Carolina in 1938 and moved to not help him without trying surgery, Newport News, Va. to look for a job. Dr. Purser considered a friend's recom"My first job was working as an mendation to see his chiropractor. "I asked what the chiropractor did," usher at a movie theater in Newport News," he says. "I thought that I had says Dr. Purser. "My friend said, "He as much education as I needed, but takes you and twists you and turns you after a short time, I knew that I needand pops your bones.' I didn't think I ed to learn a trade of some kind." could deal with that, and was very Working as an usher brought Dr. afraid. But the only alternative was to Purser one very important bonus, have surgery, so I went to the chirohowever: the chance to meet his wife. practor." The soon-to-be Mrs. Purser was a proAfter being pleasantly surprised by fessional organist and pianist who the ease and success of his care, Dr. played at the theater where he worked. Purser decided to use the funds that he had coming under the GI bill to purDr. Purser completed a four-year apprenticeship in shipbuilding in (continued on page 6) Newport News, moving up to become an ;issistant dock-master in charge of drydocking. He served two years in the South Pacific during World War II. After returning to the United States and resuming his career, Dr. Purser developed spinal problems as a result of a fall. After finding Dr. Purser (third from left) and Mrs. Purser joined Dr. Eugene Sparlin (at that medical left), Chairperson of the Logan Board of Trustees, and Dr. Frank Ungerland, doctors could also a Logan trustee, for a photo during the reception honoring the Pursers.

sue a chiropractic degree. "The doctors who owned the practice where I was a patient recommended Logan or (the former) Lincoln College in Indianapolis, although neither doctor was a Logan graduate," says Dr. Purser. "My wife and I chose Logan because she was continuing to work as a musician. We thought she would find more work in St. Louis." At Logan, Dr. Purser developed great enthusiasm for his studies. As an "A" student in most classes, he graduated second in his class. After graduation, the Pursers moved to Portsmouth, Va., where Dr. Purser began what would be a 25-year practice. Over the course of his years in practice, he treated more than 10,000 different people. "I had many unusual cases,'' says Dr. Purser. "One of my first patients was a pregnant woman who had developed complete paralysis in her eyelids. She could not open her eyes. After her second adjustment, she walked out with her eyes open."
A Surprising Opportunity to Provide Care fora Pro Football Team During the mid- 1960s, what appeared at first to be a fund-raising solicitation became an unexpected opportunity for Dr. Purser. He was approached by a promoter for a new professional football team th at was coming to Norfolk, Va. as a member of the old "Continental League,'' whose teams competed with the National Football League. The promoter, who worked for T idewater Professional Sports, asked Dr. Purser for $ 1,000 as an investment to help establish the team. "He told me that if I contributed, h e would secure a position for me, treating the players on the team,'' says Dr. Purser. "I was highly skeptical about that. But I gave him th e money, mostly to get rid of him." Much to Dr. Purser's surprise, h e
march 2000 • the tower soon received a phone call from one of the team's orthopedists, inviting him to join the medical staff for the team, which was named the Norfolk Neptunes. "I have no idea what the promoter said to the MDs,'' says Dr. Purser. "But I began treating members of the team. All of the medical doctors were always very nice and courteous. The athletes responded very well to chiropractic and I had many opportunities to educate the orthopedists about chiropractic. Eventually, I adjusted some of the orthopedists as well."
Helping Make Retirees' Dreams Come True Dr. and Mrs. Purser raised their son, Bill II, in Portsmouth. The entire family enjoyed Dr. Purser's hobby- flying. He purchased a twin-engine Commanche and on vacations, took his wife and son all over North America and on several trips to South America. ''.After many of our trips, the local newspaper would publish feature articles about our travels,'' says Dr. Purser. "So we had a good relationship with the local media and always had good publicity. My wife worked as the music director at a local television station, so as a result I sometimes did onair interviews on chiropractic." Over the years, Dr. Purser became increasingly interested in real estate and investing, so much so that he obtained a real estate license and in 1978, sold his office and equipment to a new chiropractic graduate and gave the young doctor his thriving practice. The Pursers moved to Florida. "I always thought that I would go back into chiropractic,'' says Dr. Purser. "But my career in developing commercial real estate in Florida expanded. Eventually, I tried to work with a partner to build a campground in midFlorida. My partner decided to get out of the deal, so I bought him out and we opened the campground, planning to build it and then sell it. But we fell in love with it, and decided to operate it as a musical campground with my wife performing." T he campground, "The Oaks,'' is located in Bushnell, Fla. T he Pursers
continue to own and operate it, living in nearby Leesburg. Their son also works in the business. Dr. Purser continues to maintain his chiropractic license in Florida and sometimes cares for friends and family members. During February and March, the campground fills to its capacity of 400 RVs, with many retirees spending most of the winter there. "We sell 'set-up' units, where people can tie down and leave their trailers all year," says Dr. Purser. "Many of our campers enjoy being able to come back each year without having to haul their trailers. "We're located in a rural area, so we provide a variety of entertainment,'' adds Dr. Purser. "My wife still plays the piano once or twice a week and we have a heated pool and spa, and a recreation hall holding 700 people that we use to serve some meals. We're also within an hour of most of the major attractions in Florida. Our activities director plans trips to places like Busch Gardens, theater outings and other events for our guests." Prior to visiting Logan for his reception, Dr. Purser had visited the St. Louis area once in recent years, arriving on the Logan campus during a class break and meeting a few students who remained. Having graduated when the college was located northwest of St. Louis in Normandy, that visit was his first to the Chesterfield campus. "This time, we had a chance to meet a number of people and to tour the campus,'' says Dr. Purser. "It was really amazing to see how the college has developed . At the time that I graduated, I don't think any of us could have envisioned what Logan would become." After enjoying their campus visit and reception, Dr. and Mrs. Purser spent a day relaxing, shopping and dining in St. Louis. "We're very happy to have been able to make a major gift to Logan College,'' says Dr. Purser. "I feel that everything that I've had in life - the income that I was able to invest to achieve financial success - came as a result of my education at Logan. I gained so much from the college, and it's very satisfying to be able to give something back."

for Olympian Mary Beth Larsen Ralph Barrale, DC, Associate Professor of Chiropractic Science and director of Logan's Postgraduate Department, was among the speakers at a pep rally for Mary Beth Larsen, a Logan student who qualified last summer to compete in the first-ever women's pentathlon in the 2000 Olympics. The pep rally took place in Chesterfield on November 20 outside the Nutrition Clinic, which is operated by Hugh St. Onge of Standard Process Nutrition. St. Onge is Larsen's nutritional consultant and St. Louis-area fund-raising agent. "I have so many memories of watching American athletes succeed at the Olympic games over the years," said Dr. Barrale. "It was thrilling to watch ath-

letes such as Jackie Joyner-Kersee and Mary Lou Retton. I can only imagine how much more real and how exciting it will be to watch a member of our Logan community compete. " Larsen attended the pep rally and spoke to the audience, as did her husband, Vaho Iagorashvili, who is the topranked men's pentathlete in the world. Larsen discussed her long-time goal of competing in the Olympics and her disappointment upon learning that there would be no women's pentathlon at the 1996 games, which "led me to begin focusing on another one of my dreams - becoming a doctor of chiropractic. " With three trimesters of work remaining at Logan, Larsen is currently on a leave-of-absence from the college, training in San Antonio. Other representatives of Logan College in attendance at the rally included William Ramsey, PhD, Vice President of Academic Affairs; Sharon Kehrer, MBA, Vice President of Administrative Affairs, Patrick Browne, EdD (C), Dean of Student Enrollment; and Allen Parry, DC, FICC, Logan Archivist. Logan students also assisted as ushers at the event. Speakers at the rally included Tom Ackerman of KM OX-AM of St. Louis, who served as master of ceremonies; Missouri State Representative John Loudon of Chesterfield; and Chesterfield Ward III Councilman
Mike Casey. The day before the pep rally, Larsen appeared locally on NBC affiliate KSDK-TV's morning news program and on KSDK's "Show Me St. Louis," which airs segments on local activities and upcoming events. She also was featured in the November/December issue of St. Louis' Achieve magazine. Bernie Miklasz, sports columnist for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, reported Larsen's achievement and included information about the pep rally in his column. After the pep rally, Post-Dispatch sports columnist Kathleen Nelson interviewed Larsen, devoting an entire column (December 3, 1999) to her achievements.
Mary Beth Larsen and her husband, Vaho Iagorashvili, posed for a picture after the pep rally.

Multicultural Day Brings Entertainment and Information to Campus A lively crowd of students and employees filled the college gymnasium for Logan's annual Multicultural Day, which took place February 11. Attendees tasted myriad ethnic dishes and viewed clothing, cultural literature and other exhibits reflecting countries and cultural heritages represented within the Logan student body. As part of the Multicultural Day festivities, Logan College welcomed to campus participants in the American Black Chiropractic Association Central Region meeting, which took place on the Logan campus on February 11 and 12 (see p. 14). Multicultural Day was organized by the Logan chapter of the Student American Black Chiropractic Association. Students Brandy Howard and Tanneia McCraney and Logan SABCA President Rodney Williams led the organization of the program. Cultures represented at display/food tables included African-American, (Asian) Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Hispanic/Puerto Rican, Korean, Italian, North American (including the United States and Canada) and Russian.
Other exhibitors included an historical display from the Logan Archives, and a display presented by representatives of the Baha'i faith, which places a strong emphasis on racial healing. Shades II, a dance troupe from Harris-

Logan Classes Aid St. Louis Holiday Charity Each year, the St. Louis PostDispatch and the United Way of Greater St. Louis sponsor a holiday giving program called the "100 Neediest Cases." A hundred families and individuals with low incomes and particularly difficult circumstances are profiled in the newspaper. Groups affiliated with local schools, employers and civic organizations offer assistance to the 100 Neediest Cases.
This year, Logan students Ken Mankamyer and Ken Wolf organized a campus-wide holiday charitable drive to support the program. The Trimester 1-9 classes raised a total of $2, 108, which was donated to 11 of the 100 Neediest Cases. (The maximum cash contribution per family is $200.) Mankamyer's class, now entering Trimester 7, participated in the program last year, leading to the idea of a
campus-wide charitable effort this year. The students were assisted in their organizational effort this year by E. Daniel Kapraun, EdD, Dean of Students at Logan College. "We were pleased with the results of this year's drive,'' said Mankamyer. "Next year, we hope to expand our holiday charitable outreach even further."

SACA Day Speakers Inspire Students
Logan students gathered in the gymnasium on January 13 to hear two speakers brought to campus by the Logan chapter of the Student American Chiropractic Association. Logan SACA Day is an annual event featuring speakers who are leaders within the ACA. Dr. Kenneth Osia, Missouri's delegate to the ACA, and Dr. Charles Portwood, a 1991 Logan graduate from West St. Louis County, were the speakers for SACA Day 2000. Dr. Osia spoke on the benefits of ACA membership, including the association's major lobbying, legal and public relations efforts on behalf of the profession. Dr. Portwood discussed his candidacy in next fall's election for a seat in the Missouri House of Representatives. He hopes to represent the 92nd district, which encompasses an area of
West St. Louis County extending from Portwood is a Republican. Clayton Road south to the Meramec River, ~ith Highway 141 as the eastern boundary and Ries and Dexter roads constituting the western boundary. Dr. Portwood explained why he believes it is critical to the profession for there to be a chiropractor in the Missouri House of Representatives and also discussed other concerns that he holds regarding education, health care and patients' rights to choose providers, taxes and fairness to small Drs. Kenneth Osia, A llen Parry (adviser to Logan Student ACA) and businesses. Dr. Charles Portwood are pictured at SACA Day.
