rolltown High School, has been
given the Annual Award of The
Reader's Digest Association for
students who by their successful
school work give promise of at-
taining leadership in the comm-

the local high school.
Miss Behe will receive an hon-
orary subscription to The Read-
er's Digest for one year and an
engraved certificate from the
Editors, “in recognition of past
accomplishment and in anticipa-
tion of unusual achievement to
come.”
The Reader's Digest Associa-
tion has presented these awards
yearly in senior high schools
throughout the United States and
Canada to the highest honor
students of the graduating class.
The awards are part of the edu-
cational program sponsored by

leading educators supplements to

of effective speech and composi-
tion, are made available to sch-
ools and colleges.

Red Cross Asking
Donor Enrollment
In Blood Campaign
“Blood saves lives. Make a date
to save a life. Call your Red
Cross.”
This is the slogan on the offi-
cial posters being used in con-
junction with the recruitment of
donors for the Johnstown Region-
al Blood Center to be opened soon
at the headquarters of the Cam-
bria Co. Red Cross Chapter, 244
Walnut St., Johnstown.
City and county residents are
being urged to register now.
It has been estimated that 26,-
000 pints of blood will be needed
each year in the area served by
the Johnstown Center. Of this
amount the Cambria Co. Chapter
of the American Red Cross will
be responsible for 6,000 pints.
This amount will include the do-
nations received from both city
and county residents.
The remaining 20,000 pints will
be secured from the other chap-
ters cooperating in the program.
The Johnstown Center will supply
without charge blood needed by
hospitals within an approximate
radius of 70 miles of the city.
The program is the joint effort
of the Cambria Co. Chapter and
a number of other chapters with-
in the 70-mile radius.
State Police Say:
Don’t walk to your death. The
months just ahead are the most
dangerous for pedestrians who
use streets and highways after
dark. Four out of five are killed
at night! Walk facing traffic
which will enable you to see the
oncoming car in advance and
thereby afford you a greater op-
portunity of meeting any emer-
gency. At night wear something
white and carry a light.
