This year's M{ss Congeniality honor went to Trisha Herigodt (right). The 1985 Controversy surrounds cancer-nutrition question ti- ^ c EDITOR'S NOTE: 'Mere mention of the word "CMncer" today evokes fear across a large segment of the population, and many people, In their search for a cancer preventative, have turned to nutrition. This is the second in a series by Herald News Service writer June Ca varretta about. cancers and its known relation with nutrition. Story by June Cavaretta CANCER It's hard to get away from the word "cancer." Talk show hosts interview "nutritionists" on what we should avoid in our diet. Vitamin supplement companies publish slick catalogs filled with "research" to promote their products, all carrying a hefty price tag. Magazine articles cast shadows of suspicion over treatment pro­ grams for oncology patients. And newspapers reporting the latest research further fuels the cancer phobia in the United States. Much of the concern continues to center on diet, nutrition, and cancer. What is the link between diet and cancer? Can dietary changes actual­ ly prevent cancer? , Dr. Michael W. Pariza, Chairman of the Food Microbiology and Tox­ icology Department at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, conducts research in the area of chemical carcinogenesis, with special reference to diet, nutrition, and food safety. He holds, among many other memberships and honors, an elected membership in the American Association for Cancer Research. "There are profound gaps in our knowledge of this subject," Pariza said. "Unfortunately, all too often .these gaps are glossed over in the rush to make specific dietary recommendations and to convey those recommendations to the public." Pariza said in the rush to make those dietary recommendations, one point is not heard enough: based on current knowledge, no ohe can say how much cancer might really be prevented through dietary changes.

The application was to build a picnic pavilion on village property. Zeman said Sunrise Ridge officials have not followed* proper procedures in filing for the building permit and she said she "took offense" to a letter circulated by the association board accusing the village of acting illegally in denying the permit. Zeman cited fou reasons why the permit was denied. She contends that a variation from the building code is required because the pavilion is an unusual or unconventional structure. Also, no blueprints were submitted, the specifications don't meet village requirements and the village cannot bend the rules to ac- Fire destroys building Fire destroyed a vacant home in Lakemoor in the early morning hours of Tuesday, June 25. Chris Bennett, deputy chief of the McHenry Township Fire Protection District, said the structure across from 542 Rand Road, McHenry, was "fully involved" when firefighters arrived on the scene. The alert was given at 2:23 a.m. Bennett said all three McHenry Fire Companies and an ambulance responded to the scene, Mutual aid was called for and equipment and men from the Fox Lake and Wauconda Fire Departments responded. "The building has been abandoned for years," Bennett said. "We had to shut down Route 120 for about 45 minutes." The deputy chief said there was no chance of saving the building and the firefighters essentially prevented it from spreading to other homes. The fire department's arson unit is investigating the origin of the blaze. In all, firefighters were on the scene for about three hours.

It was held at Parkland School. The fight continues over building permit ntil all procedures are followed, no permit will be issued," Zeman said. Sunrise Ridge attorney Thomas Nuelle had argued that because the beach property was zoned for conditional use, no zoning hearings or rezoning would be needed. Village at­ torney Richard Short agreed, but said the plans must be ap­ proved by the trustees because the building is "unusual." Short said the board must consider whether the building fits into the character of the neighborhood and is structurally sound. He went on to say that county officials recommended making sure the support beams and other structural features are certified. The village's building director would be responsible for cer­ tification and stress tests would be required, Short said.

A few minutes before, Mrs. Sheehan revealed the names of the first runner-up, Rose Oleksijew; the second runner- up, Tammie Miller ; and the third runner-up, Ginger Freund. And just before, that, Cindy Axell, 1984 Miss Congeniality, placed the 1985 Miss Congeniality ribbon over the shoulder of Trisha Herigodt. The 1985 queen and her court will reign over the Fiesta Day festivities in July and other events throughout the year. In August, Miss McHenry will represent the city at the McHenry County Fair to vie for the county title. The newly-announced queen received her crown from Heide Bender, Miss McHenry 1984, who completed her reign with a tearful, "I promised myself I wouldn't cry," and thanking all those who made it possible, "I love all of you guys," she said, adding, "Thanks Mom and Dad."

Among her favorite things, she described snow, writing poetry, camping, hiking, reading and mint chocolate chip ice cream. Her dislikes include blood tests, cold weather, exams and waking up early. Asked what celebrity she would choose to date if given the opportunity, she responded, "Eddie Murphy because I know I'd have a real good time and be the envy of everyone else." Her comment after the ceremony was, "I'm too nervous and excited and shocked to cry. I can't believe it." The first runner up, Rose Oleksijew, 17, was escorted by her brother. She was the only contestant who arrived in one gown and left wearing another. At first she wore a floor-length pale pink, puffed sleeve gown. While others changed from bathing suits to their first gowns, she dressed in a bright red shorter dress accessorized with sheer black appliqued hosiery and gloves and a single strand black necklace.
