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.

BEAT RUTGERS!
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.

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.
