Women Urged
To Contribute ,
To Blood Bank
Two hundred women are needed as:
blood donors, Josephine Fitzpatrick,,
'44, general chairman of the Wom-
en's Blood Bank announced yes-
terday.
the .mobile unit from Detroit will
be here rDec..16 And 17. In order to
donate blood at that time, one must
have registered previously. Registra-
tion will begin 1 to 5 p. m. Dec. 1 and
last until Dec. 10 at the League.
Girls under 21 must have the writ-
ten -permission of their parents be-1
fore they can be blood donors. Miss
Fitzpatrick urges that women who
need these letters wiite home for
them immediately so that they can
have them at the time of registra-
tion.
In addition to the letter, there is
another requirement that donors
must Veigh at least 100 pounds to be
eligible. No Health Service check is
necessary as was needed last year.
'"Needless to say, this is one of the
most important contributions which
women can make to the .war effort.
The blood donated in this way' is
dehydrated and then sent all over the
worlcf 4o help save the lives of Amer-
ican men in' combat zones. For such
far-reaching results, donating one's
blood certainly is a simple and pain-
les 'procedure," Miss Fitzpatrick
concluded.
'47 Corps Goes

Crew Not Limited to Freshmen
Needs More Willing-To-Work
Volunteers for Campus Project
"The sun is back again so come out
and help clean up the campus," Mar-
cia Sharpe, '44A, chairman of the '47
Corps said yesterday.
"The Corps is not limited to fresh-
men," Miss Sharpe added. "Anyone
may help, after all, this is everyone's
campus. Many women have signed
up to work but most of them have
not come back after their first day.
All workers can certainly give a few
hours a week-every week."
The '47 Corps members are volun-
teers. They give their time and effort
because they feel it is their responsi-
bility to relieve the manpower short-
age and to keep the University Cam-
pus in standard condition.
Headquarters for the '47 Corps is
the sub-station in back of Waterman
Gymnasium. Rakes are kept at the
sub-station which is unlocked in the
afternoons. The key may be secured
in the mornings from Miss MacCor-
mick, social director of the League,
at her offices in the League.
Volunteers are advised to wear
slacks or blue jeans. Women living
in dormitories, sorority or league
houses supplied with rakes are urged
to bring their own.
All dormitory stamp salesmen must
turn in their money between 3:30 and
5:30 tomorrow at the undergraduate
office of the League.

crafts to work with such groups as
Girl Reserves and Girl Scouts, as

the Saturday nursery for young chil-
dren soon to be organized. Not only
women with such qualifications but
those interested in dancing, story-
telling, publicity work, or those who
"just like kids" have welcome serv-
ices to offer.
Already fifty coeds have volun-
teered for various branches of the
committee's work. Many have en-
listed in the "Proxy Parents" corps,
whose members stay with young chil-
dren when adult members, of the
family must be away. "Proxy Par-
ents" receive transportation to and
from their posts and a fee of thirty
cents an hour for their work. "Many
more coeds are needed for this
work," Miss Wright added.

SA
By DONA GUIMARAES
Those bright colored leftovers of
yarn from the argyle sweater and the
cable knit socks that you knitted last
year can now be put to good use. In-
stead of lying in a drawer, furnishing
moth fodder, the yarns can play an
active part in our war effort.
The Rehabilitation Program has
started a drive to collect all scrap
yarns to be used in the hospitals.
Monna Heath '44, President of
Women's War Council, said that a
box has been provided in the Under-
graduate Office of the League for the
yarns contributed by the campus.
The yarn that has been salvaged
should be rolled into balls. If your
yarn has been already eaten by those
termites, or if you think you might
be able to eke out another pair of
socks from it, it is possible to pur-
chase new yarn especially for this
program. In.that case, the yarn can
be left in the original skeins. Wool
is wool, and no matter whether new
or old, it can be used in the Univer-
sity Hospital under this program.
With so many coeds knitting on
socks, scarfs, and sweaters, there is
undoubtedly a lot of yarn that could
be used in this drive, for no piece is
too small. Any color or weight of
yarn can be used, and wool and
rayon mixtures are acceptable also.
So the scraps of the sock yarn that
you used for 'the man who is far, far
away' can still be of some use here at
home.
Policeman Receives
Fake Holiday Turkey
KANSAS CITY, Nov. 24 - (tP) -
Other policemen viewed with envy
today a big basket left at headquar-
ters for Patrolman Ben Sanderson.
Although the basket was covered,
they could see a turkey head protrud-
ing from one end, a couple of turkey
feet from the other.
Then Sanderson came in and took
a peek at the bird he'd been given.
The bird is right. It consisted of two
bricks to which were tied the turkey
head and feet.

Thomas B. Heisel had to obtain the
consent of his prospective mother-
in-law before he could get a mar-
riage license; although her daughter
did not.
Both Heisel, a Marine Corps flier,
and his future bride, Joan Bonhan,
are 19. California law says a girl
need only be' 18 to marry without
consent but a man must be 21.
So Heisel asked the superior court
