tSPSSS WED.-SAT. JULY 3-6 (CLOSED THURS. JULY 4) NYLON SHORTS SHORTS WITH EUSTIC ASSORTED COLORS IN I Chamber lunch and Paul Revere Page 3 - PLAINDEALER-HERALD, WEDNESDAY, JULY S, 19S5 At the July 10 McHenry Area Chamber of Commerce lun­ cheon, a presentation will be made by Bill Dodds, principal of McHenry High School East Campus. The topic will be Paul Revere and the Shot Heard 'Round the World'. Dodds has developed this presentation as a result of a Humanities Fellowship during the summer of 1984. The presentation is a blendng of history, art, and music which depicts the events that took place in our country leading up to the beginning of the Revolutionary War. The audience will'also have an op­ portunity to interact with Dodds in the character of an individual from the Revolutionary period. Commenting on the presen­ tation Dodds indicated that, "It has been shared with teachers, service clubs, and students throughout northern Illinois, and it has also been presented si several national conferences or conventions." Dodds further commented, "Paul Revere will be returning to Boston this summer where he will meet with the Life and liberty Fellowship of the National Endowment for the Humanities which will be held at Brandeis University later this month." July 10 is the regularly scheduled second Wednesday for the bi-monthly Chamber Luncheons and it happens to fall on Republican Day. The Board is well aware that Republican Day involves a good percentage of the Chamber members, but hopes that those who are not planning to attend Republican Day wifi take time out of their business routine to attend this very timely and quite ex­ traordinary presentation by Dodds. Another - feature of this Chamber Luncheon will be experiencing the newly remodeled and recently reopened Rip Tide's Restaurant in Johnsburg (formerly Crescent Bay Landing). Hie menu will include two entrees: A beef entree and a crepe entree. Reservations can be made by calling 385-4300. All prospective Chamber Chamber members fo?°this social and informative gathering. Gathering time is 11:30 a.m. to provide time for socializing and a cold drink before the luncheon which is scheduled to begin prompt!) noon. The program will T 12:30p.m. andadjournmeni 1:30 pjn. , In the space of that one hour program time, members will not only experience an important chapter in history but will also experience the person himself, as Dodds stated. Paul Revere will ride into the room at Rip Tide's. It is a little unclear whether he will be arriving by land or by sea, but it is sure that he will arrive. "It's really a great experience. You've got to see it to believe it. I hope the turnout is as good as the am, " states Council itor Randy Taradash . "Hie waterfront setting for this program seems particularly appropriate. We are par­ ticularly pleased to be presenting this program right around Independenc Day, since that is the time when we take a moment to lect on the value of our heritage, our liberty, and our country. For all the time we spend complaining about taxes, tariffs, ana terrible conditions, we need to pause and appreciate what our forefathers sacraficed for us and what a unique culture we have inherited due to those sacrafices. Reservations canl&jnade on the chamber's answering machine if it's between hours and the Chamber staff will call to verify the reservation-385- 4300, anytime of the day or night. CANCER (Continued from page 1) "It's important to realize that they're talking about foods, not pills or supplements," said Pam Milan, registered dietician at the Regional Cancer Care Center at St. Joseph Hospital in Elgin. "Often people want to be told to do one thing, such as take a pill. And when you start saying things like that, it's misleading." Among the list of dietary recommendations, fiber in particular has received much media attention as a preventive of colorectal cancer. Its advocates say fiber acts as a laxative, which dilutes the contents of the intestines and reduces the transit time of carcinogens traveling through the body, thereby reducing the risk of developing cancer. "That's all speculative," Kilton said. "Among people who get cancer, there are differences in transit time. This is a theory that attempts to explain (the value of fiber in relation to cancer), but it's just a theory. It's not precisely known that it has anything to do with (cancer preven­ tion)." . j Kilton said that some countries with nigh fiber intake are associated with a lower incidence of certain cancers, such as colorectal cancer, but that in no way explains what fiber has to do with carcinogenesis. "It's all in association," he said. "But it is reassuring to have high fiber in the diet; it's simply part of good common sense. But if you're do­ ing it in terms of reducing your cancer risk, you have to take it with a grain of salt." Vitamins C also has received much attention as a cancer preventive. Linus Pauling popularized the hypothesis that vitamin C prevents cancer. Two separate studies done by the Mayo Clinic have disproved conclusively that theory, yet it remains popular. "Vitamin C is of no value in the management}^ prevention of cancer," said Dr^James Gagnon, who practices at thlRegional Cancer Care Centei:at St. Joseph Hospital in Elgin. \\v Proponents of vitamin C also tout the "why-not" theory based on the myth that too much can't hurt because it's a water soluble vitamin. They claim amounts not needed by the body are flushed from the system, thereby eliminating the threat of toxic effects. According to ttre^CS\research is beginning to show that too much vitamin C can have unwarned effects, including fatigue, sterility, condi­ tioned need, and the destruction of the B-12 vitamin.
