I'd like to take a minute and tell you what Joe Black is all about. What I'm about is an examination of the problems all Blacks share. ... J Not the expression of one man's interest. Ego. Or experience. : Rather, the contributions of many people and much common sense. I am merely the catalyst. You see, I do not believe we must foster hate and violence to keep moving forward. Although I under stand as well as anyone why many think we should. I've been there, and endured the harassment, ridi cule, and rudeness, back when we were integrating the big leagues. But, I also found myself in a comfortable enough position) wonder what all the shouting, singing, marching, and boycotts were all about. When the Movement began to gain momentum. Except for supporting memberships in the NAACP and Urban League, I accepted the rewards of the Movement passively. Which wasn't exactly paying one's dues. Then I met Dr. Martin Luther King. And learned the many ways a Black can aid the cause. And how much greater the Movement is than the individual. At that time too, my mother, died, A lady who spent a lifetime keeping a family together, while finding time to do for others. That combination of circumstances taught me to extend my hand. To help Black people understand our responsibilities, within our community, during our quest for equality of opportunity. And to help de-emphasize hate. Thatj and simply that, Is what Joe Black and By-the-Way, are all about. JeeBkck ", Vita President - . . The Greyhoupd Corporal ion percent Almost all of the League's member national societies actively participate in 'their country's blood donor recruitment program. In 16 countries, the Red Cross, at the request of the government assumes the entire responsibility of a national blood program. In 42 countries, the organization operates blood transfusion centers and mobile blood collection units. All national societies assist in various ways in promoting blood donor recruitment some suing the slogan, "Blood is Red all over the world." The American Red Cross Blood Program, which celebrated its 25th anniversary last year, is responsible for collecting about half of the nation's supply of blood. From the 3,8 million units of blood collected during fiscal year 1972-73, the Red Cross was able to produce more than 5.5 million units of blood and products for use by hosptials, physicians, other blood banks and the ARC'S fractionation program. Since the founding of the American Red Cross .Blood program in 1948 the organization has collected, processed and distributed in excess of 65 million units of blood. Today, the Red Cross program operates through 58 regional centers, covering 1,724 participating ARC chapters, serving more than 128 million people, and providing blood and blood products to 4,277 hospitals and blood facilities throughout the nation. American Red Cross chapters will observe World Red Cross Day, the anniversary of the birth of Red Cross founder Henri Dunant, by emphasizing the great need for new blood donors and especially the younger donor. Recently the organization lowered the age of blood donor eligibility to 17 with parental permission and when state laws permit. Since only three per cent of eligible donors" in the U.S. actually give blood, the American Red Cross Youth Service Programs is beiglrining special effort to reach young donors through schools. Many universities also conduct blood drives The League of Red Cross Societies, a federation of the Rud Cross, Red Crescent, and Red Lion and Sun, is primarily involved in helping member societies develop and improve health, welfare and safety programs. It is the world body responsible for coordinating emergency assistance for victims of natural disasters at which time blood availability frequently is essential. Also headquartered in Geneva, and participating in the World Red Cross Day observance is the International Committee of the Red Cross, (ICRC), the natural group of all-Swiss citizens which serves as an intermediary between belligerents in time of war. The ICRC also seeks to assure the protection of the Geneva Conventions for both military prisoners or war and for civilian victims of conflicts.
