Original Toronto Star caption: World-renowned writer and lecturer Elie Wiesel has never forgotten the horrow of the notorious Nazi death camps in which his parents and sister were killed. He has lived and thought his way back to faith, but not that simple faith of childhood: I don't believe in a world redemption anymore.

Jack Dancygier gives his attention to customer Lou Sugar in his barber shop at Adelaide and Peter Sts. His manicurist is Gilda Facoetti. A survivor of the concentration camps of Nazi Germany, Jack is grateful for the peace that has come to him and wife in Canada, where they have raised three sons.

Thousands of prisoners who died at the Bergen Belsen concentration camp during World War II weren't deliberately starved to death but died from a rash of diseases, according to a psychiatrist who was there in 1945. Russell William Barton, 61, of Rochester, N.Y., said that when he entered the camp on May 2, 1945, he had heard and believed that prisoners were deliberately starved to death by the Nazis.

Victor Ling is world- renowned for his work in cancer research. Last year he received both the Dr. Josef Steiner Prize in Europe and the General Motors Kettering Prize - recognized as the top international award for cancer research - at a June dinner in Washington, D.C. Ling helped discover how cancer cells resist the effects of tumor-destroying drugs by using a tiny protein. The protein ejects drugs from the cell before they have time to act. Ling spent years refining and confirming the discovery, which has sparked a search for the right decoy drug capable of fooling the protein and allowing cancer-fighting drugs to slip in for the kill.
