hr Dressings
Coeds Urged to Repeat
1 Last Week's Increase
A new national goal for surgical
dressings in March has been set
l)jy the Red Cross. The Armed
Forces are in desperate need of
183,000,000 dressings, which is far
»ihove the quota set in February.
Both quality and quantity are nec
essary if the goal is to be met.
” State College centers, by re
maining open the entire day, are
attempting to raise the number of
dressings made last month from
20,000 to 31,000' for March—a 50
per cent increase.
. Coeds rolled 775 dressings, dur
ing last week's class in 110 Home
Ehonomics, which was an increase
of 108 over the previous week.
Attendance last weejc, although
showing a marked improvement,
did not increase the number of
bandages rolled in proportion be
cause of the number of coeds who
attended for the first time and re
ceived instruction during the two
and a half hours period.
Attendance' increase last week,
according to Mrs. Henry S. Brun
ner, chairman, was encouraging to
the instructors, but in order to
rhow any real results it is neces
sary that those same coeds return
this week. Two weeks ago 77 coeds
■wrapped 775 dressings, while the
previous week 36 more experi
enced coeds turned put 567. dress
ings.
The average attendance during
January and February for sorori

“It is necessary to develop skill
rolling surgical dressings and
this pannot be done if coeds come
qnly one Thursday night. Attend
ance- should be continuous,” Mrs.
Brunner- commented in urging
those who helped increase the at
tendance last week from 36 to 77
to return again tonight.
