200 Pints 01 Blood Will
Be Sought In Canton 17th
Two hundred pints of blood is
the goal for the regular visit of
the Bloodmobilc in Canton Wed
nesday, when the unit will be set
up at the Champion YMCA This

ton area's minimum share lor the
present critical need.

by the Canton Lions Club, and
members are soliciting the help of
every citizen to meet, the urgent
demand.
On a national level, the blood
supply is far below possible needs.
Much blood is yet needed for cor
rective surgery of war victims.
Blood on the local level is ample
for emergencies, but supply for
elective procedures will be threat
ened unless supply is forthcoming.
Any person giving blood during
the coming visit will be assured
of all blood needed for his fam
ily for a one-year period, it was
pointed out. ? This arrangement
' is under the new blood program,
now being organized. and will be
retroactive.
Polio authorities join the blood
program in urging citizens to con
tribute to this life-saving pro
gram. They insist thai money
alone will not win the battle with
polio, since blood is essential.
More than eight hundred peo
ple have given blood, one or more
times, through the Canton visits
They will again make their con
tribution Wednesdaj to help meet
the present challenge. Those who
have never contributed, may well
share in the feeling of having
done good, by helping in the
emergency.
Club members who have been
assigned to various committees,
include: Lon Goodson, general
chairman; Pat Greeley, publicity;
Hall Whit worth, Charlie Smith
