They Continued On Back Page Calling For Blood Donors Red Cross once again is calling for blood donors when the Bloodmobile comes to the Tryon area next Monday, June 23rd. The Bloodmobile will be at the Episcopal Church Parish Hall in Tryon from 12:30 p.m. to 5 30 on Monday. Once again, the Red Cross must stress the theme: "What if you needed blood and there wasn’t any’" The problem is critical since so far this year blood donations have fallen below the requirements for doctors and St. Luke’s Hospital patients, the Red Cross says. But giving blood is so simple, the Red Cross emphasizes. "Anyone who is more than 17 years old. weighs more than 110 pounds and is in good health can donate blood," Red Cross chairman Richard E. Weiss says. "The process is easy. An individual has only to come to the Parish Hall at his or her convenience on Monday after noon where he or she will be examined by a qualified nurse who will record blood pressure, pulse and medical history. After that it takes but six to eight minutes to transfer a pint of blood to the blood bank. "And the satisfaction of having done this is so great," Weiss says. "Imagine, knowing that you may have helped restore to health or even saved the life of a friend or someone else in our communi ties!"
