CALIFORNIA VISITOR Elaine Worth and her parents, Willard and Esther Nelson, spent a day visiting with relatives at a Holiday inn CANCER I Answerfyline AnMftcm CMcvSocMy Editor's Note: This is a regular feature prepared by the American Cancer Society with cooperation of the McHenry County Unit, Eustice Klein, president, to help save your life from cancer. A reader explains: "I am concerned, because when I was a teenager I had radiation treatment for my tonsils. I have heard that this can lead to cancer. Is this true? What should I do?" ANSWERline: In the early 1920's it became medical practice to use radiation or radium to treat a number of different conditions of the head or neck. Unfortunately, the thyroid gland, which is located in the neck, also received either direct or scattered radiation at the same time. Sometime after on Chicago's south side last week. Elaine was delighted to see her cousin and her husband, Lorraine and Gene Derrico, who were visiting the area from their home in sunny California. The Derrico's did spend a day here in Lakeland Park before they returned home and everyone had a good time reminiscing and catching up on family news. 7^ STAR V^L, SALE ENDS SATURDAY, OCT.

Fortunately, while many thousands of people have received radiation for medical purposes, only a very small percentage have or will develop thyroid tumors. Most of these tumors are benign. But when cancer is present, it is of the type that can be cured by surgery if treated when in an early or localized stage. It is therefore essential for anyone with a history of head or neck radiation exposure to be checked by a physician now, and to continue to be checked at least every two years. There is low incidence of this form of cancer. But you must protect yourself by having a checkup. A trucking executive asks: "Just what is the result of constant exposure to cigarette smoke if you are a non- smoker?" ANSWERline: There is some evidence of cardiovascular ' effects (for example, higher blood pressure) in non-smokers when the carbon monoxide level in a poorly ventilated room becomes too high. There is a great deal more evidence that sensitive non-smokers may suffer a variety of acute effects including eye and throat irritations, while children of smokers have a somewhat higher incidence of respiratory illnesses than children of non- smokers. At this point, there is no evidence that non-smokers are courting lung cancer by being around cigarette smokers. It is the cigarette smoker who suffers that serious consequence. A woman asks: "I have several cysts in my breasts. I cannot help but worry that they will cause cancer." ANSWERline: Cysts are fluid-filled sacs that form in the milk ducts of the breast and almost all such cysts are harmless. Although there is one form of breast cancer involving cysts, this is extremely rare. It is, however, always important for you to have regular medical examination of your breasts because of this possibility, and because cancers can occur near harmless cysts. A trained physiciq&jpust examine you on a regular basis because it takes an expert to diagnose the dif­ ference between a cyst and a possible health problem. You can best ease your mind by having regular checkups and examining your own breasts each month. Your physici£fh can also suggest any other tests you should have, including for example, mammography, of X-ray examination. iW At a recent meeting of the American Legion auxiliary, McHenry Unit No. 491, members heard reports from the Girl's Staters.
