                       Thursday, October 6, 1994

  Mr. FORD of Tennessee. Mr. Speaker, I would like to commend Dr. Steve 
Bledsoe, Jr., an outstanding Tennessean who has been elected to the 
American Academy and Board of Head, Neck and Facial Pain. On July 28-
31, 1994, this group held its ``Tenth Annual International Symposium on 
Clinical Management of Head, Neck and Facial Pain'' here in Washington. 
At that time, the organization selected members of its prestigious 
board.
  Over the years, this board has been a selective one, with its 
rigorous membership requirements outline in its by-laws. By electing 
Dr. Bledsoe to this board, his colleagues acknowledge his continuing 
professional contribution to his field. The requirements for Board 
Certification show that this Academy and Board continue to monitor the 
level of excellence required in this specialized area of the health 
care field. Dr. Bledsoe has dedicated his career to the highest 
standards for the treatment of procedures to alleviate head, neck, face 
and temporomanidbular joint dysfunctions. I salute Dr. Bledsoe and the 
American Academy of Head, Neck, and Facial Pain.
