TAMARA LOWE, an English instructor at the school who spearheaded preparations for the two day accreditation visit Feb. 21 and 22, said results, although incomplete, were positive. Some 70 educators from throughout the state visited the school to evaluate programs, make recommendations and commendations on more than 20 different phases. It went really well, Mrs. Lowe said. At our opening breakfast we had over 200 including PTA people, three members of the Board of Education (Lucile Reading, Theo Italisano and Jay Stevens), Gayle Stevenson from the school district as well as others from within the district who came to ob- serve. THE EVALUATORS were divided into pairs and assigned certain areas of study ranging from administration to the English department. As of yet, specific recommendations and commendations have yet to be studied, Mrs. Lowe said.

Scott, chiropractic physician of Layton, was asked to speak to the grade nine class to explain chiropractic and its function in the community. presented a informative slide program, beginning with a DR. SCOTT very brief history of chiropractic, now the largest health profession in the world. The educational status of a licensed Doctor of Chiropractic was explained: Two years of basic sciences required for entrance to the professional college; four years (4,485 hours) spent in the chiropractic college, thus giving him a full six years of education, required for licensure in all 50 states. It was noted that a Doctor of Chiropractic receives education comparable to medical doctors, and in some courses i.e. anatomy, physiology and diagnosis, the chiropractor actually has a few more non-dru- g hours. DR. SCOTT then briefly explained the between the spine, the nervous system and many of the glands of the body -cause and effect as related to body malfunctions. The common term back being out or bone out of place was explained as a subluxation (fixation within the normal range of motion) or misalignment of the vertebrae causing nerve irritation. Slides demonstrating subluxation and pathology of were shown the spine on to demonstrate the detailed analysis performed bv the chiropractor. It was men- tioned that many common ailments such as headaches, nervousness, numbness and tingling of arms or hands can be effectively treated by a chiropractor. BACK AND leg pain com- monly referred to as a slipped disc or sciatica respond well to chiropractic. Because of the intensive in training anatomy, pathology and diagnosis received by the chiropractor, he is able to recognize problems beyond his scope of practice, thus allowing him to intelligently refer those requiring medical treatment. Dr. Scott encouraged those students inclined towards the healing arts, to consider chiropractic for their future profession, as it is an extremely rewarding profession. He encouraged those present to consider seeking the services of a chiropractor for relief of the many 'aliments that they may experience. DR. SCOTT emphasized that chiropractic is a natural, drugless, highly effective method of treatment for many of the conditions causing pain and suffering of mankind. - FARMINGTON Upcoming Utah State University Extension seminars include: MARCH 1 Weed Control for farmers.
