Schacterle Chiropractor MIGRAINE HEADACHES More than fifteen million Americans suffer from chronic headaches, many of which can be catergorized as migraine. This type of headache usually starts on one side and may spread to the entire head. Other symptoms may include irritability, nausea and sensitivity to bright light. Victims of migraine headaches may also experience “signals” of an impending attack, such as a fluttery stomach and a sensation that lights and colors seem brighter than normal. A headache may last for several hours or several days. Since science has long been aware that migraine headaches result from a stretching of the arteries and nerves of the head, chiropractic has developed special tests to determine the pre cise point of the blockage in these areas. Please do not ignore the early warning signs: headache, stiffness in neck/back, painful joints, leg/arm pain, numbness, back/neck pain, shoulder pain, numbness in hands/feet. Early treatment of these signs will minimize your need for additional follow-up visits. Complimentary consultation and spinal evaluation will be given thru February 28. Previous patients of chiropractic who feel the necessity for “only” a spinal adjustment are welcome. Should you feel a need for an appointment please call 696-2100. Migraine headaches may also be caused by a misalignment of the neck bones resulting in a pinching traction that stretches the blood vessels and nerves leading to the head.

Klcmsman starts campaigning for governorship Associated Press NACOGDOCHES — The grand dragon of the Texas Ku Klux Klan sat in an old bus on the side of U.S. Highway 59 this weekend, cam paigning for governor. The bus was parked just south of the Nacogdoches city limits. “It’s easier outside (the city lim its),” said Charles Lee, the 31-year- old Pasadena man who heads the Texas Klan. “So many cities have peddlers permits. It’s a big hassle.” Klansmen in white robes stood by the road, smiling and waving at pass ing motorists. “We hope they’ll stop by and talk to us about the campaign,” Lee said. A motorist braked, honked and gestured obscenely. Across the road, a dozen people — black and white — stood with signs reading “KKK, You Are Hellhound” and “This isn’t Klan Country.” Lee, a printer who is running as a write-in candidate, said he wasn’t upset by the opposition. Lee, complaining that Klansmen were not being represented by either the Democrats or Republicans, said his organization has three main is sues: tighter control of the Mexican border, using the National Guard if necessary; “voluntary segregation” in the schools and the use of quaran tines to break “the large buildup of homosexuals in the state.” Lee said he will travel to every city in Texas before the November elec tion. Lee said voters have been given a distorted image of the Klan by news papers and movies. The Klansmen portrayed the or ganization as a peaceful society pro moting the white race. “See that NAACP sign over there?” one Klansman asked. “Know what that stands for? It’s the ‘advancement of colored people.’ They have a group to promote their race, and this is a group to promote ours.” is running a Lee said the Klan lively but non-violent campaign. “There are some definite feelings about us both ways: for and against. We just hope people realize we’ve got the constitutional right to run for office just like everyone else,” he said. In Advance AIDS lecture set for Thursday By MARK TAYLOR Reporter Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome, the nation’s most talked about disease, will once again be placed in the spotlight when the College of Medicine sponsors “An Update on AIDS” Thursday. The lecture, which will be pre sented by Dr. Douglas Hurley, an associate professor in internal medicine, and Dr. David McMur- ray, an associate professor in medical microbiology and immu nology, is part of the college’s “Noon Lecture Series." McMurray says the presenta tion was designed for answering questions, dispelling popular myths and generally “keeping a lid McMurray says the lecture will include the most recent discove l ies about the disease. The seminar will concentrate on information, gathered during the past three or four weeks, on transmission of the disease and prospects for a vaccine, the two main areas of public concern. Statistics reported since Jan. 18 indicate twice as many cases were reported during the first three weeks of this year as were re ported in 1985, with 6.4 percent of those cases being reported in Texas. "We want to give people all the facts as we know them at this time," says McMurray. The lecture will be held from noon to 1 p.m. in 230 Memorial Student Center. lid on paranoia.

Houston racer donates automobile A&M is ‘flight testing’ racing car By MELANIE PERKINS Reporter Texas A&M aerospace engi neering researchers are using auto mobile aerodynamics to “flight test” a Can-Am class racing car donated to the University by a Houston man who designs and races the cars. Dr. Stan Miley, associate professor of aerospace engineering, said, “This is a unique way to apply our aircraft technology and to involve students in an interesting hands-on research program without the costs associated with similar work on air craft.” Miley said flight testing is the process of basing judgments on cer tain kinds of measurements, such as pressure and acceleration. Bruce K. Langson of Houston Team Racing Inc. donated the car, called the Laser 7000, through the A&M Research Foundation. The car, which is stored and tested at the A&M Research and Ex tension Center, has a Frisbee-style body on a Lola T333 chassis with a 305-cubic inch, 600 horsepower Chevrolet engine. Scott Miller, an aerospace engi neering graduate student, said the car, which weighs about 1,600 pounds, can go from 0 to 60 mph in three seconds. Miley, who is working on the pro ject with Langson and Dr. Thomas Pollack, an aerospace engineering faculty member, said research and imagination are the basics of the ex periments. . “Basically we go back and r^-re- search things done on airplanes,” Miley said. “We simply usejiifferent Texas A&M researchers apply low-cost aircraft technology in flight testing Can-Am class race car. applications of old techniques. “The car has an amazing capacity to support loads which makes it use ful for a variety of experiments.” Miley said the main research in volves shapes and flow behavior. “We can make changes very quickly and see the results, which is very useful for the students,” Miley said. Miller said it is important to start out working with the car in original form to see what changes need to be made. Miller said experiments with yarn zde le airflow pat- i pa osene mixture reveal the terns around the car. According to Miller, the driver can observe the direction of the air flow as he is driving by watching the direction the yarn tufts attached to the outside of the car blow. Miller said the way the powdered paint mixture dries also reveals in formation about airflow. Miley said the car creates flows that cannot be created in a wind tun nel. “No wind tunnel can simulate the air you fly through because wind tunnels always create turbulence,” Miley said. Miller said the real problem with wind tunnel testing is the ground is fixed in most wind tunnels, while in “real life” the ground moves. “We use wind tunnel and com- C uter testing as bases or aids — the est way is to actually test the car full-scale,” Miller said. Wind tunnel testing is used on scale models to give some idea of how a full-scale model will perform under natural conditions, he said. Miller said the main objective of the experiment is to increase down- force, which increases the ability to turn corners. The more downforce a car has. the better it will handle and tlx more the natural tendency of thea to lift will be reduced. “A lot of techniques to general! downforce (such as skirts and fait!; have been banned for safety a4 competitive reasons,” Miller said. ; Downforce can be increased cf adding weight, but it makes brakisf and accelerating more diffinAl Miller said.

Student’s absence not excused for service Associated Press HOUSTON — A high school yearbook photographer received an “A” for the photographs he took of President Reagan during a memo rial service for the crew of the space shuttle Challenger — and an unex cused absence for skipping school that day. Jesse Herrera, 17, who played hooky Friday, talked, his way into heavily guarded Johnson Space Cen ter to photograph the memorial service for the astronauts killed in the Jan. 28 explosion of the space craft Challenger. Although his name was not on the guest list, Herrera, a junior at Bar bara Jordan High School, managed to get inside the space complex by telling security officers he was there to take pictures for his high school yearbook. Using money he earned doing odd jobs, Herrera had bus fare, but only enough left for a single roll of 24-exposure film. He used most of the roll to photo graph President and Mrs. Reagan. Herrera told his teacher on Thursday not to expect him in school Friday because he planned to attend the services and take pictures of Reagan. His teacher Edwina Salaun-Kle- pac said, “I said, ‘Sure, you will.’ ” Herrera said his principal toll! him Monday that he had to coum the absence as unexcused becaux “he doesn’t want to encourage aD) one to miss school.” His teacher said the absencewoni affect Herrera’s standing becausi he’s a straight-A student who’s oak missed two days of school all year “And he’ll get an ‘A’ for this.H( was applying a skill that he wii taught,” she said.
