If your Little Leaguer complains of pain, have
the child checked by your family chiropractor.
Some injuries that call for prompt care include
tendonitis, a dislocated shoulder joint, irritation to
the nerves that control the small muscles in the
hand, and numbness or tingling when nerves are
irritated by long periods of gripping a bat.
Neglected, little injuries can become major.
Chiropractic recognizes that many physical ills
have their roots in spinal nerve pressure. Treat-
ment for your budding champion includes gentle
spinal manipulation designed to adjust the spinal
vertebrae. This relieves pressure on nerve roots to
offer quick relief from injury. No harmful drugs are
used in chiropractic.

Sellers has said, “I speak of great men
whose religion became symbolic of the quest
for total knowledge and whose monuments
depict their complete failure to acquire its
essence. I speak of man the seductive animal
in search of memory.”
As abstract as the thought may be, the
foreboding steel material can also beckon
the simplest of interpretations.
The artist’s intent is “to evoke a mental
conversation” with the viewer.
An “antithetical arch” lies within the
abstraction, which casts silhouettes
representative of Seller’s visions of the
duality of man’s nature — in his words, the
“spiritual and the warring.”
From the altar Sellers sees an inner truce
expressed — the “factions of the ‘warring
