Bloodmobile To Be At Wake Forest College With a goal of two hundred pints a day while at Wake Forest College, the bloodmobile will roll in to Wake Forest Thursday and Friday, October 23, 24, to receive donations. The bloodmobile which operates out of Charlotte was originally scheduled to be in Raleigh on those two days, but upon request iti was released to Wake Forest College. One of the main factors which played a role in the decision to change the place while the unit is in Wake County is the fact that Wake Forest made such an ex cellent showing last year. The goal which was Set for a one day stand last year while here was two hund red pints. However, toward the' end of the day the goal had been reached and still the students and towns people continued to go *to the gymnasium to donate and by the time the bloodmobile closed, a total of 333 pints had been donat ed. This was an excellent showing for Wake Forest College. Once again this year the stu dents and towns people are being asked to answer this vital call and support both the precident set last year as well as the drive it self. Remember, it will be here on October 23 and 24. You owe it to yourself as well as your country to support this blood 4rive and DONATE A PINT. Roving Around PLEASE NOTICE!

He assumed his duties on Wednesday morning upon the departure of Floyd Whitman, Jr., who has accepted a position in Whiteville. Wiggs is 31, married, and a nat ive of Rocky Mount. He has been in Johnson City, Tenn., prior to his working in Wrightsville Beach. He has a daughter who is a junior in high school, who will transfer to Wake Forest High as soon as housing can be arranged. Chief Wiggs attended the 44th session of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s National Academy, which is a police school course of 12 week’s duration. He was at school at Washington and Quan- tico, Va., during the training. Wiggs was hired at a recent Session of the Town Board of Di rectors for the chief job, that was vacated by Whitman’s leaving. If you wanted to see a bunch of busy, beavers at work, you should have seen the Lions who went to the B & E Cleaners on Monday night after the meeting to help in pressing and hanging up clothes received on the recent drive. It was a sight to bee C B Robinson, of General Laundry, take a bus man’s holiday, and Dr Stealey and Bill Strickland of the Seminary doffed their vestal robes to aid in the project. Car salesman Ralph Cruser, postmaster Bond, Bill Shearon, lawyer Nassif, Tailtwister Buck Peters, and yours truly also were among those employed gainfully for the evening. The man who made but one error has never “lived” — but the man who never made any errors was never born. We hear the W E Speas have two fall camellia plants in their yard which are now in full bud, and ready to bloom within the week. One plant has three lovely red blooms now, and the other has 13 buds which will blush out into variegated colors soon. See that the short cut road to Rolesville has been paved. Sure is nice to run over it now. And the new road will mean that the peo ple of Rolesville wil be able to come over to the Fall Festival more easily.
