The Summer Blood Drive, sponsored by the Back Mountain Blood Council, will be held July 12 from 11:45 a.m. to 5:45 terian Church in Dallas. The church is located at the top of Church St., behind the Dallas Town- ship School. The summer has always been a season when blood supplies run short. This year, there is a particular shortage of B negative blood, but all types are needed. Many donors go - on vacation, but since ill- ness takes no vacation, users need blood all the time. There is a need for new donors to take the place of vacationers and to become regular donors themselves. Blood and blood compo- nents are vital to the work of healing in hospitals and its use is increasing annually. This area, which is one where the average age of the population is increasing, presents a problem to the Red Cross. More people are living longer and are becoming users of blood and blood components. Thus, there are fewer younger people to be donors. There appears to be a hgh incid- ence of cancer in the area and cancer patients are quantity users of blood components in their treat- ment. The solution is in the hands of the community. Although there seems to be a decrease in the number of younger, heal- thy residents, there are still more than enough people who are able to tions of blood donors is that they are from 17 to 65 years of age and in good health. Since the formation of the Back Mountain Blood Council, donations have increased from two collec- tions averaging 150 units to five collections averag- ing over 200 units. The Council, however, feels a need to increase its collec- tion to approximately 300 units. The Blood Council feels the public is not aware of the need for blood. The need can be summed up in the following statements: (1) There is no substi- tute for human blood. (2) The need is constant and each unit, when broken down into compo- nents, can be used to help more than one person or type of illness. (3) Without blood, a number of people includ- ing hemophiliacs, would not be alive today. The Back Mountain Blood Council makes its appeal to the community - if you are between 17 and 65 years of age, in good health and weight at least 110 pounds, you are capa- ble of donating blood during this drive.
