PAGE TWO lood Campaign Hits 253 Pints Two hundred fifty-three pints of blood were donated by students during the campus blood drive yesterday and Tuesday. The Johnstown Red Cross bloodmobile unit collected 147 pints yesterday in addition to the 106 pints collected Tuesday. Pledges for the drive reached 310, but many persons • broke their appoint ments during the two-day drive. The goal was set at 300 pints. During November last year 768 pintsduring were collected the four-day day drive. Nine hundred fif teen pledges were received for that drive. Mrs. Helen Shaffer, chief nurse of the unit, said yesterday that so far as the Johnstown blood center is concerned, the quota for the trip has been reached. She ex plained that the unit was able to handle students who came in but that there were periods during the drive when time lagged and the staff was not kept busy. Mrs. Shaffer, in a statement Tuesday, hoped that students who had not kept their appointments, Tuesday would come in yester day. She explained that it was' possible that students did not re ceive their appointments on time because there was no mail de livery on Armistice Day. Without the help of 60 volun teer workers, Mrs. Shaffer said, the unit could never have col lected as much blood as it did. She explained the unit carries only 8 staff workers and that volunteers are necessary to carry out the blood drives successfully. The Johnstown unit will return to the campus in early May for a three-day drive.

Chest Drive Extension Foreseen The Campus Chest campaign may be extended one week be cause of slow returns on solicita tions and a shortage of solicitors, according to Joseph Haines, soli citations chairman. Originally the drive was sched uled to end Tuesday. Haines said more than 20 solici tors are needed, although the All-College Cabi n e t Projects Council provided 15 additional solicitors. He added that cards made out for persons who cannot be con tacted should be returned by the solicitors and that blank cards can be obtained by calling State College 7753. No Increase A thermometer to show the progress of the drive is expected to be placed on the Mall some time this week, Haines said. ' There has been no increase in the amount of funds collected. The total is now $ll5O. A. H. Imhof, chairman of fac ulty and administration solicita tions and assistant in agricultural journalism, said the faculty and administration dri v e for chest funds will start Monday and end Nov. 22. Service Employees Excluded The drive will be conducted among members of the faculty and administration staffs, but will not include service employees. Funds collected in the faculty and administration drive will be turned over to two groups, Penn State •Christian Association and the World Student Service 'Fund. This is done to avoid overlapping with town drives, Imhof said. Faculty and administration con tributors will be permitted to specify, if they wish, which of the two organizations shall re ceive the money. Dean of Women to Be Radio Guest Tonight Pearl 0.

FRATERNITY PAPERS LETTERPRESS - OF'F'SET COMMERCIAL PRINTING Pugh & Beaver State College College Safety Record Ranks High in Country Although there are few signs that the College conducts a for mal safety program, Penn State's all-round safety record is one of the best in the country, according to Lorin J. Elder, supervisor, safe ty division. Safety isn't advertised with big, colorful posters as in industry, Elder said,. but signs are placed where they will do the most good. Belt guards on machines and good lighting in hallways are safety measures. Elder says he has never had more cooperation than in the last few years. He con side r s the "awareness and thoughtfulness" on the part of employees the most effective safety measure. Elder receives many letters from other safety engineers asking how the College program operates. 200 Korean Vets Enrolled Mdre than 200 Korean veterans are enrolled as College students, President Milton S.
