MIGRAINE HEADACHE
15,000,000 Americans suffer from. recurring
headaches . . . the kind of headaches that
strike hard and fast, again . . . and again
sively that the migraine trouble develops when
one or more of the bones of the neck are
misaligned or forced out of normal position.
Since the nerves and blood vessels pass
through small openings and canals in between
the neck bones, a misalignment produces a
pinching-traction that stretches the herve ghd
blood vessels leading to the héad. Once the
precise point of impingement has been located
it is usually a simple matter for the chiroprac-
tor to release the impinged nerves and blood
vessels, and the headaches are relieved.

LUZERNE
ANDY SARNAK of 635 Church St.
Swoyersville, recently returned from
New Orleans, La., where he attended
the Veterans of Foreign Wars Conven-
tion. Making the trip with Andy was
William Strish, Commander of the
Anthracite Post 283 VEW of Kingston.
After the business sessions were
over, Andy and Bill took in the sites of
the French Quarter, Bourbon Street
and the New Orleans Dome. They also
saw the preparations being made for
the 1984 World’s Fair which is being
built in New Orleans along the Missis-
sippi River.
Andy also shook hands with Joe
Dimaggio, the Yankee Clipper; and
the famous clarinet player, Pete Foun-
tain.
After all of the good times, bad
times come and that it did in Hurri-
cane Alicia, as Andy said they were in
the middle of it, reminding him of the
Agnes Flood of 1972. In fact, Andy
said, on their way home, the plane hit
into the storm and all they saw was
lightning and clouds and hitting air
pockets. Although they had a good
time, Andy and Bill were happy to be
home.
Sarnak is Dist. 11 Adjutant and
State Department Service Committee
member. He has been adjutant for the
past 15 years. He is also past com-
mander of Post 283 and District 11.
