 Shriners Hospitals for Children has been a leader in specialized pediatric healthcare for years. They’ve been recognized as a leader in orthopaedic care since 1922. The hospitals specializing in orthopaedics are dedicated to providing medical and rehabilitative services to children with congenital deformities, problems resulting from orthopaedic injuries and diseases of the musculoskeletal system.
Their care extends to children who have experienced burns and treatment is provided for burn injuries and related scarring, along with physical and emotional rehabilitation. In the early 1980s, Shriners Hospitals for Children opened the nation's first spinal cord injury rehabilitation centers specifically designed for kids. Cleft lip and palate was added to the health care system's treatment disciplines in 2005. Services available at Shriners Hospitals for Children fill the need for coordinated, comprehensive multidisciplinary care for children with this condition.

 See something bigger than life . . . extra large statues of Elvis Presley and James Burton, a Rock and Roll Hall of Fame guitarist. Located in front of the Municipal Auditorium where they played together on the Louisiana Hayride.
Presley made what would be his only appearance on Nashville's Grand Ole Opry on October 2; after a polite audience response, Opry manager Jim Denny told Phillips that his singer was "not bad" but did not suit the program.[57] Two weeks later, Presley was booked on Louisiana Hayride, the Opry's chief, and more adventurous, rival. The Shreveport-based show was broadcast to 198 radio stations in 28 states.
