The truth about discounted rates How bargain rates can leave you feeling very exposed
One of the biggest mistakes a chiropractor can make is to choose insurance protection based on price alone. That's because many so-called "bargain" policies offer only inadequate "claims-made" coverage that protects you only while the policy remains in force. If you should be sued after the policy is cancelled (and it does happen), you're out of luck. But NCMIC only sells "occurrence" coverage. That means when you insure with
NCMIC, you're covered against claims for malpractice arising out of treatment while you were our policyholder ... even if you are sued years after the policy is cancelled. And if you should happen to be sued, NCMIC will help defend you with the kind of top-flight advice and legal counsel you simply can't get from many cut-rate insurers. When you insure with NCMIC, you'll enjoy a sense of long-term security "bargain" policies just can't match.

THE TOWER/SUMMER 1993
Homecoming '93: A Success! A high energy level and strong participation in the 11 outstanding speakers' seminars marked the 1993 Logan College Homecoming and Class Reunions, held on the Logan campus and at the St. Louis Airport Marriott Hotel, June 17-19.

Logan Student Honored by Alumni Association and Red Cross At a luncheon held during Homecoming for all past presidents of the Logan Alumni Association, Charles Cushing, Trimester 10, was recognized for his efforts in the reorganization of the Logan Archives. Cushing has spent the past year working closely with Logan's archivist, Dr. Vi Nickson, re-organizing the Archives. The museum of the Logan Archives is housed in a small room which had become over-crowded. Cushing moved hundreds of items from the museum into a storage center on campus, and organized the remaining items into an attractive exhibit. Cushing was given $250 by the Logan Alumni Association past presidents, in recognition of his efforts. Dr. Nickson presented a plaque to Cushing, expressing her appreciation and that of the Alumni Association. Cushing also was honored in St. Louis recently, as a recipient of the American Red Cross Lifesaver of the Year Award. In September 1991, he was one of four men who stopped

running beside it and steering it to the side of the highway. The rescuers saved the man's life by administering CPR until paramedics arrived.
Student Participation in Golf Tournament Increases
As always, Logan golfers found many creative ways to entertain themselves.
The traditional Student/Doctor Golf Tournament, held the first morning of Homecoming (June 17), attracted 120 golfers, according to student Bob Lang, who organized the tournament. The tournament was held at St. Andrews Golf Course in St. Charles County. Lang noted that the Logan Student Doctors Council he lped stude nts pay entry fees, which made it easier for students to participate. About 40 students played in the tournament, and a student foursome - M ike Harper, Steven Karp, J.G. Thompson, and Dave Ikeda -
took first place in Flight B. The other winning foursomes were: Flight A, First Place: Drs. Gary Guebert, Bill Droege, Mark Roesler, and Frank Marsillio; Flight A, Second Place: Drs. Glen Polovich, Glenn Manceaux, Greg Polovich, and Robert Brown; Flight B, Second Place: Drs. Keith Bartley, Chuck Hewitt, Bob Re ise nbe rger, and Tom Vanidestine; Flight C, First Place: Drs. Glenn Bub, Ron Grant, Kathy Naughton, and Joe Kinsella; Flight C, Second Place: Drs. Anthony Calandro, Chris Calandro, Carmelo Calandro, and Greg Edstrom.

Bequests Benefit College Logan College recently received funds as a beneficiary of the two estates. The College has received two distributions totaling more than $16,000 from the estate of Dr. John Ratushinsky of Chesterfield, who passed away in January, 1992. Dr. Ratushinsky graduated from Missouri Chiropractic College in 1948. As the Winter issue of the Tower reported, early this year the College received $20,000 from the estate of the late Dr. Deane Gulley of Benton, Ill. That amount was a partial distribution, and was followed in June by $122,690.07. Dr. Gulley was a 1941 Missouri Chiropractic College graduate. Missouri Chiropractic College merged with Logan College in 1964, joining Missouri alumni with the Logan family. "We are very grateful for the thoughtfulness of these two doctors, and for their commitment to chiropractic education," said Logan President Dr. George A. Goodman.
'93 Phonathon to Begin Donald J. Mclain, Director of Institutional Advancement , announced that the Fifth Annual Logan College Phonathon will begin Oct. 4. Alumni throughout the U.S. will be contacted by representatives of Logan's Annual Giving program. Past contributions to the Annual Giving Program have helped the College in many ways, financing improvements which would have been impossible otherwise. Most importantly, these contributions help insure the chiropractic profession's future growth and development, and allow Logan College to continue our tradition of excellence. We trust that everyone will respond favorably to the call for attention to the well-being of our alma mater.

Alumnus Profile
Success and Commitment in Chiropractic: Dr. Frank Ungerland Since the day in 1973 when he received his first adjustment from the late Dr. Dale Montgomery of the Logan faculty, Dr. Frank Ungerland has been certain that chiropractic is the ideal profession for him. Dr. Ungerland enrolled at Logan after receiving a bachelor's degree from St. Bonaventure University in New York State. The New York City native had visited the chiropractic practice of Dr. Ted Bouchard '57, a friend of his father's, in New York City. As he entered the office, a 13year old girl walked past him. He later learned that six months earlier, an orthopedic surgeon had said she would never walk again. Dr. Ungerland recalls, "Dr. Bouchard told me that the chiropractic profession needed good young doctors, and that there were many people ready to try an alternative approach to health care because traditional approaches had failed them. He said, 'Frank, you can make a living from caring for strains and sprains, but it's the miracle cases that will make you the best chiropractor you can become.' " Dr. Ungerland put his plans to enroll in graduate school at St. Bonaventure on hold. After visiting Logan and National Colleges, he decided to move to St. Louis to attend Logan. He says, " I decided I would give it six months, see how I felt, and maintain the option of going to graduate school later." Soon after Dr. Ungerland arrived in St. Louis, he joined a group of students who were repairing Dr. Montgomery's roof. When they finished, Dr. Montgomery adjusted each of the exhausted students. "I was amazed. I fe lt so different afterwards," says Dr. Ungerland. "Instead of collapsing into bed, as I had expected to do, I went to a party." Dr. Ungerland decided quickly that he wanted to remain at Logan.
During Homecoming, Dr. Ungerland (right) visited with Logan President Dr. George A. Goodman, who was a faculty member during Dr. Ungerland's student days.
As he progressed through the curriculum, he was impressed with the skills and knowledge of many Logan faculty members. However, '"Dr. Montgomery, whose talent for adjusting, knowledge of anatomy, and teaching ability have become lege ndary among Logan graduates, remained a special source of inspiration. "I will always remember Dr. Montgomery saying, 'Son, see the bones in your mind before you move them,' " says Dr. Ungerland. "And I always do that - visualizing before I adjust always ensures a great adjustment for me." While studying at Logan, Dr. Ungerland worked as a teaching assistant, and also was one of the founding members of the Logan chapter of Chi Rho Sigma, national chiropractic professional fraternity. He married his wife, Ellen, in his second year as a student. After graduation they moved to Midwest City, Okla., where their son, Christopher, now 10, was born.
Dr. Ungerland's practice in Midwest City became extremely successful. He had an average of 20,000 patient visits per year. "I learned the value of chiropractic in changing people's lives," says Dr. Ungerland. "Especially after two or three years of practice, you can really see how much the quality of life has improved for so man y people under your care. I became completely turned on to helping as many people as possible. "To serve your patients, it is important to develop professional relationships with good surgeons and other allopaths, because some patients need them, but it's so exciting to know you can facilitate healing in people and rel ieve their suffering." Dr. Ungerland re-examined his commitment to chirop ractic last year, when he sold his practice in Midwest City. " I could have re tired," he says, "but I realized how much I wanted to keep working to become a better doctor, and how much I still wanted to help as many people as I could. I thought I would enjoy practicing in Tulsa, and so we decided to re-locate. "I think there has never been a better time to be in chiropractic than the present. We've established proof that what we do is effective and cost-effective. Many people still don't know that, but awareness is growing. Chiropractors are affiliated with about 30 hospitals across the country, and I can certainly remember when there were no chiropractors on hospital staffs." Dr. Ungerland's positive feelings about his education at Logan have continued to grow through his years in practice. He says, "Logan had and still has a curriculum with a good balance of science and the 'art' of chiropractic. Logan gave me the knowledge I needed to become successful. "

New Logan Clinic Opened with Salvation Army; Health Center Patient Loads Increasing Logan Health Center interns are finding expanding opportunities for clinical experience, as a result of growth at Logan 's Health Centers in South St. Louis, St. Charles, and Webster Groves, and the opening of a second Logan clinic affiliated with the Salvation Army. The College has operated a clinic at the Salvation Army Harbor Light Center in Downtown St. Louis since 1988. The Harbor Light Center houses a detoxification unit and offers a comprehensive alcohol and drug treatment program, a transitional program for men who have been incarcerated, and shelter for homeless men . Dr. Ronald Grant, Director of Clinical Services, said Logan's Harbor Light clinic recently moved from an adjacent building to the main building of the Harbor Light complex. The Salvation Army recently asked Logan to establish a clinic at its Adult Rehabilitation Center on Forest Park Blvd. in St. Louis, which serves 70100 residents who have successfully completed Salvation Army detoxification programs. On August 2, the College began providing intake evaluations, physical examinations, and chiropractic treatment at the rehabilitation facility. Dr. Glenn Bub, of the on-campus Montgomery Health Center faculty, provides clinical supervision at the new clinic. Dr. Grant said the new clinic is open two evenings per week, due to the fact that the residents spend their days in Salvation Armysponsored training programs for various kinds of jobs. The clinic is located in a new health care suite at the rehabilitation center. "The suite is very nice and modern - the Salvat ion Army completely remodeled it," said Dr. Grant. " We have a reception area, a restroom, and two treatment rooms. We moved two Zenith tables, two flat tables, and some physical therapy equipment to the facility." Dr. Grant said that patients requiring x-rays can be referred to Logan's
Community Health Center in South St. Louis, and those needing allopathic services can be referred to various neighborhood clinics. The Logan Community Health Center, which has been under the direction of Dr. Scott Hainz since January, has continued its strong growth of the last two years. The first six months of 1993 brought 188 new patients to the Center, which opened at its present location 10 years ago. Average patient visits per month at Community have risen to about 600, with a total patient load of about 500. The Center's patient load has outgrown its facility, and a move to a larger, nearby location is anticipated for October. Dr. Hainz attributes the Center's growth primarily to ever-expanding referrals. "Our word-of-mouth network in the neighborhood has become extremely strong, and we continue to encourage our patients to refer friends and family members," he says. The College's two new Health Centers in Webster Groves and St. Charles also are doing well. During, the Centers' first six months of operation this year, the Webster Groves Center treated 211 patients, and the St. Charles Center 220. Both Centers had average monthly patient visits of more than 260. Dr. Bill Hemmer, Director of the Webster Groves Health Center, and Dr. Kelly Brinkman, Director of the St. Charles Center, have joined local Chambers of Commerce to help build awareness of their Centers. Both Centers also offer free blood pressure screenings one day each week, and the Centers provided free pre-camp and pre-sports activity physical examinations this summer. In addition, the Webster Center also has held patient hospitality nights and conducted blood pressure screenings at local stores. Dr. Hemmer recently gave presentations about chiropractic on a cable access show and before a group of Anheuser-Busch retirees.
Health Centers Business Manager, judy Ewo/dsen Dr. Brinkman and interns of t he St. Charles Center gave presentations as part of a health ed ucation day at a St. Charles school in M ay. They also recently did carpa l tun nel screenings at a large St. Charles hardware store. Outpatient services also w ill continue to be offered at the on-campus Montgomery Health Center, and t he Center provides services to many members of the Logan community : faculty and staff members, student families, and alumni. The Montgomery Center also continues to house the College's Radiology Depart ment and Student Health Center. Dr. Grant said that the Health Centers' business operations also are running smoothly, aided by recent re-organization and the hiring of a Health Centers business manager, Judy Ewoldsen. Ewoldsen supervises all Health Center personnel, other than clinical faculty, at Montgomery Health Center and at the College Health Centers in St. Charles, Webster Groves, and South St. Louis. A newcomer to St. Louis, Ewoldsen worked in health care management for 11 years in Shreveport, La., where she was an office manager and computer specialist for several medical practices.

Work-Out Center Opens on Campus

Dozens of logan students, faculty, and staff members gathered excitedly in the lower level of the Science, Research, and Ergonomics Center on July 8, for the opening of the logan Work-Out Center. The new facility significantly expands the sport/fitness activities available on campus. The many fitness-oriented members of the logan community also can utilize a fitness trail with exercise stations; a sand volleyball court; tennis and handball courts, and a cross country trail. A ribbon-cutting ceremony was held to celebrate the opening of the spacious Work-Out Center. logan President Dr. George A. Goodman presided at the ceremony. Dr. Goodman said that the College administration had established the goal of opening a workout center on campus nearly two years ago. Dr. Goodman noted that Dr. Ralph Filson, Associate Professor of Chiropractic Science, led the development of the Center, bringing significant leadership and energy to the process. Dr. Filson, who is a competitive weight-lifter, worked with a campus committee in plan-
Kathy Strange, Development Secretary; Rochelle Robertson, Enrollment Coordinator, and Dr. Patrick Venditti, logan Ergonomics Center Director. A range of free-weight train ing equipment is available in the WorkOut Center, including 5,000 lbs. of Olympic weights, two 20-kilo plates, six Olympic bars, ten 120-lb. dumbbells, and various benches, collars, incline boards, and dumbbell, plate, and squat racks. In addition, the Center offers a 45-degree leg-sled / leg press, a Universal Aerobicycle, and a Paramount Circuit Weigh t Tra ining System (a Universal-type weight training machine) . The Work-Out Center is open before classes on week-days, during the mid-day break and lunch peri-

PAGE 20 Work-Out Center (continued page 19) graduate, practices in Bridgeton, Mo. Dr. David Perrine, a 1990 graduate from St. Charles, Mo. donated the 20-kilo plates and two 1/2-kilo collars. Financial donations to purchase the remaining equipment were received from: the Student Doctors Council, the Logan Ohio Club, the Logan Alumni Association , and
individual members of the Logan Alumni Association Board of Directors. Money from a memorial fund established in honor of Dr. Filson's father, Dr. Raymond Filson, also was utilized for the Center. Dr. Raymond passed away last fall. Dr. Ronald Grant, Director of Clinical Services, recently donated money in a fund he established
following the death last year of his mother, Betty Grant. More fitness equipment is still to be purchased for the Center, and the money from Mrs. Grant's memorial fund wi ll help with the additional purchases. Items still to be added to the WorkOut Center include a Stairmaster, rowing machine, Nord ic Tr ack, treadmill, stereo system, and water fountain.
Students Volunteer in Area Flood Control Effort About 250 Logan students participated in flood-control efforts in Eastern Missouri during the floods of the Mississippi and other rivers in July. Early in the morning on July 19, the students boarded five busses provided by a local school district. They traveled to three floodthreatened sites in the St. Louis region, where they handled jobs ranging from filling sand-bags to piling bags on levees and patching levee leaks. In Festus, Mo., about 30 miles south of St. Louis, the students provided urgently needed help, working against an impending river crest. They helped reinforce the town's levee enough to keep it from breaching, and the levee held through the crest. Additional students traveled by car to Carondelet Park in South St. Louis, a food-preparation site for flood control volunteers in the St. Louis area. The students assisted with food preparation. Then-Trimester-7 student John Kozy proposed the large-scale effort to the Logan administration. Kozy and fellow students Dave Schaller, Shane Neifert, and Bob Lang, and Anna Olivetti of Tri. 3 recruited and organized student volunteers in Trimesters 1-9. (The Tri. 10 students were away on preceptorships.) Ann Carter, Executive Secretary to the President, provided administrative coordination services for the volunteer effort. (continued on page 21)

The volunteers were excused from their classes in order to participate. Prior to the large-scale Logan effort, interns from Logan's St. Charles and Webster Groves Health Center spent half a day helping with
flood control efforts at sites in St. Charles County and South St. Louis County, respectively. The interns were accompanied by Drs. Kelly Brinkman and Bill Hemmer, the Health Centers' Directors. Supervised by the faculty members, the
interns performed muscle work on some flood volunteers, and also helped fill and pile sand-bags. Other efforts by Logan students included a clothing/ food/household goods drive, conducted by the Students For the Advancement of Chiropractic, under the leadership of SFAC President Tina Theriot. The item,s collected, and some cash, were given to the Salvation Army for distribution to flood victims. Additionally, the Logan chapter of Student ACA sponsored a bowl-athon on July 22. The event was planned to raise funds fo r SACA, but the money raised was contributed to the Salvation Army flood relief effort instead. The bowl-a-thon was held at the Brunswick-Four Seasons Lanes in Chesterfield. Bob Lang, who recently completed a term as Logan SACA President_ said the bowling alley gave SACA coupons fo r free games , and the org an ization charged bowlers $1 per game. About 40 Logan stude nts, faculty members, and friend s bo wled , raising approximately $150.
Chiropractic Games '93 to Feature Sixth Sport and More College Teams September 30 through October 2, Logan College will once again host a multi-sport athletic competition for students from chiropractic colle ges in the U.S. and Ca nada. Logan hosted the first Chiropractic Games in 1992. About 400 students from seven chiropractic college s participated in basketball, golf, soccer, softball, and volleyball compe titions on the Logan campus and at nearby faciliti e s. The Games were initiated by the Logan chapter of Delta Sigma Chi, National Professional Chiropractic fraternity. Members of the fraternity anticipate that be ginning in 1994,
the Games will be hosted by other chiropracti c colleges. The '93 Games are being coordinated by Delta Sigma Chi members De an Bie rnacki and David Shapiro, both Trimester 10. Shapiro said the ' 93 Games will feature a new competitive sport, flag football. The Colleges will be asked to send coed teams for flag football , volleyball, a nd softball. Socc e r, golf, and baske tba ll teams can be all -ma le or all-female. Additionally, Cleveland College of Chiropractic in Kansas City and Palmer College of ChiropracticWest in San Jose, Cal. will be
participating, joining six of the eight colleges which fielded teams last year (Logan, Canadian Memorial, Parker, Texas, National, and Palmer). As we we re going to press, Life and Northwestern colleges, which sent teams last year, had not yet confirmed plans to participate. Shapiro said two additional colle ges which did not participate last yea r also may se nd tea ms, and seve ra l of last year's co mpe tin g colleges will be participating in more sports. " Our participation will probably increase by 100 or more stude nts, so we' re excited about the g rowth of this eve nt/' said Shapiro.

Kehrer previously served as Executive Director of the Logan Alumni Association . She was appointed to that position in 1980, and first joined the Logan staff in 1973. She recently received a Master of Business Administration degree from Linden wood College.
During the Homecoming banquet, Dr. Anthony Bilott presented a gift (a unique antique crown pin and gift certificates) to Sharon Keh rer, in appreciation for her years of service as Executive Alumni Director. The gift was from present and past members of the Alumni Association Board of Directors.

Postgraduate Department Plans Exciting Fall/Winter Schedule Recent additions to the Logan Postgraduate Department fall/ winter schedule will benefit doctors interested in chiropractic orthopedics, impairment evaluation, and injury care/prevention for rodeo participants, said Dr. Allen Parry, Dean of Postdoctoral and Related Professional Education. Beginning the weekend of Nov. 13-14, the Postgraduate Department will offer its three-year Diplomate program in Chiropractic Orthopedics on the Logan campus. The first session of the program will be taught by Richard D. Stonebrink, D.C., F.A.C.O., of the Western States Chiropractic College Division of Continuing Education. Dr. Stonebrink has made many notable contributions to the field of chiropractic orthopedics, including the development of the Diplomate course syllabus used by the Logan Postgraduate Department. Dr. Parry said that doctors treating patients with personal injury/ workers compensation cases are strongly encouraged to attend a 36hour disability/impairment program, to be taught by impairment rating specialist Stanley Kaplan, D.C., D.A.B.C.O. The program is scheduled Jan. 22-23, Feb. 12-13, and March 12-13, on the Logan campus. Dr. Kaplan's seminars are part of the Diplomate program in Chiropractic Orthopedics. However, seminar participants are not required to enroll in the full Diplomate program, and they will receive Logan College certificates of completion of the disability/impairment course. Dr. Kaplan has an international reputation as an expert in disability evaluation. He served as a consultant in the writing of the American
Medical Association Guide to Disability and Permanent Impairment, and recently participated in a significant updating and expansion
of the Guide, for publication of its fourth edition. Dr. Parry anticipates that the new edition of the Guide, to be used as the text for Dr. Kaplan's course, will be available in the Logan Bookstore by late September. In addition, Dr. Parry announced that the Logan Postgraduate Department and the Northwestern College of Chiropractic Postgraduate Department are co-sponsoring a 24hour, two-weekend course for doctors interested in joining Wrangler's "SportsChiropractic" program. Wrangler is the exclusive apparel sponsor of the Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association. Last year, John H. Neal, Director of Retail Marketing for Wrangler, initiated the Wrangler SportsChiropractic program, with the assistance of Ed Corley, D.C., C.C.S.P., of Tacoma, Wash. Dr. Corley has provided chiropractic care at rodeos for many years. The Wrangler SportsChiropractic program promotes chiropractic care to local committees organizing rodeos throughout the country. The program was featured in the June 1993 issue of the ACA journal. According to a statement from Neal in the journal, by 1996 Wrangler SportsChiropractic expects to provide chiropractic services at 800 of the 900 Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association events. Dr. Corley has established qualifying criteria for doctors' participation in the Wrangler program, and he is an instructor in the two-weekend postgraduate course. Successful completion of these seminars will qualify doctors to join the Wrangl er SportsChiropractic program. While participation in the course is strongly encouraged, Dr. Corley and his team of selection coordinators will consider applications from doctors who do not attend the
course. The course includes a visit to a rodeo, and focuses on common physical problems of rodeo cowboys. In addition to Dr. Corley, the rodeo seminar faculty includes two other chiropractors with substantial experience on the rodeo circuit: Donald Aspegren, D.C. of Lakewood, Colo., a Logan Postgraduate Department faculty member, and Mike Wohlschlaeger, D.C., a 1990 Logan graduate practicing in Chipley, Fla. The rodeo seminars began this summer. Upcoming seminar dates/ locations are: 9/ 18-9/ 19 - Session 2, Simi Valley, Cal. ; 11/6-11/ 7 Session 1, Biloxi, Miss., and 1/ 8-1 / 9 (tentative) - Session 2, Pensacola, Fla. Either Session 1 or Session 2 can be taken first. Also this fall, the Logan A uxiliary will again join the Post graduate Department in sponsoring a brunch and presentation on contemporary chiropractic for spouses of students and doctors. The program will be on campus on Sept. 11. On that date, the Postgraduate Department's newly revised chiropractic paraprofessional course also will begin. The course trains participants to be ch iropractic assistants. A complete listing of upcoming seminars of the Logan Postgraduate Department begins on page 24. Contact the Department for additional information.
SOC Elects Officers In July, the Logan Student Doctors Council elected officers for the fall and winter trimesters. They are: President - Bob Lang, Trimester 8; Vice President David Schaller, Trimester 8; Treasurer - K. Shane Neifert, Trimester 8; Secretary Percy Chan, Trimester 4.

Ergonomics Center Tests Paramedic Applicants Dr. Patrick Venditti, Director of the Logan Ergonomics Center, designed a testing program for aspiring paramedics of a St. Louis-area fire district. The program was utilized in July, when 18 paramedic candidates of the Mehlville Fire District visited the Logan campus for testing. In the past, the Ergonomics Center designed pre-employment testing programs for some of its clients. However, such programs can no longer be utilized by employers, who must remain in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990. The ADA went into effect last year. Under the new law, employers can test employees only after a job offer is made, although continued employment can be made contingent upon passing physical or other tests.

On the Lewis and Clark Trail with Dr. Tom Warren Logan alumnus Tom Warren, D.C., '76 of Tulsa, Okla. can claim a unique personal accomplishment. He and John Hilton, an auxiliary education director at Mineral Area College in Flat River, Mo. began the adventure of a lifetime on May 31, 1992: they traveled from St. Louis to the Pacific Ocean, on the Lewis and Clark Trail. Dr. Warren and Hilton journeyed up the Missouri River and across the Rocky Mountains, by jet boat, canoe, and bicycle, and at times on horseback. Dr. Warren says he and his partner were the first team to travel across the entire trail since Lewis and Clark. The journey took three months, and the adventurers returned to St. Louis by truck. The 1992 expedition was featured on news programs of all three major television networks, National Public Radio, and local television stations. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch covered the departure from St. Louis. For Dr. Warren, the trip was the culmination of years of fascination with the Lewis and Clark expedition. "As a boy, about thirty years ago," he says, "I was indifferent toward reading. A teacher who wanted to spark my interest in books told me, 'Every book contains a message, in which the author speaks to you and tells you something important.' "She gave me a book, which happened to be about the Lewis and Clark expedition. I was fascinated by the obstacles they overcame, and the fact that they never gave up, despite the difficulties they encountered. Lewis and Clark became my heroes. They dealt with an issue that still concerns most people today- pulling out the best in ourselves." Dr. Warren says he and Hilton are planning a similar adventure in 1995, when they expect to travel the other direction on the Lewis and Clark Trail, from the Pacific Ocean to St. Louis.

Christmas Gifts for the Homeless Program Seeks to Raise $5,000 Planning has begun for Logan's fourth annual Christmas Gifts for the Homeless program. Dr. Kathleen Naughton, Assistant Director of Clinical Assessment and Clinical Education, and Health Center Secretary Elaine Kumm will once again lead the effort, with the assistance of Logan faculty, staff members, and students. During a July planning meeting, participants decided, as in past years, to provide gift boxes containing flannel shirts, sweatshirts, socks, gloves, etc. The gift recipients will be individuals served by the Salvation Army Harbor Light Center, the Salvation Army Rehabilitation Center, the United Methodist Women's Shelter, and various local groups aiding homeless veterans. Last year's fund-raising efforts net-
ted about $4,000, which funded 250 gift packages. A fund-raising goal of $5,000 for 1993 was established during the July meeting. This amount will be an all-time record for the Christmas program, and the additional money will be used to provide gifts for a larger number of individuals. The planning meeting also featured input from two visitors to the campus: Judy Weilepp, Executive Director of the Health Care for the Homeless Coalition of Greater St. Louis, and John Eckhoff from the St. Louis County Office of Veterans Affairs. Weilepp stressed the fact that Logan's program provides muchneeded items to homeless adults, whose needs otherwise might go
unmet, given the concentration by many community groups on Christmas gifts for homeless children. Eckhoff emphasized the needs of homeless veterans. Last year, in conjunction with the Logan program, Eckhoff organized a Christmas Day dinner for veterans served by the Salvation Army Harbor Light Center and the Vet House, a transitional shelter affiliated with the Jefferson Barracks V.A. Hospital in St. Louis County. Planning and fund-raising efforts for the Christmas program will continue through the fall. Alumni wishing to offer fund-raising ideas, financial contributions, community contacts, or volunteer services are welcome to contact Dr. Naughton at 1-800-782-3344.
