The Red Cross bloodmobile will
be in Roseburg Wednesday and
Thursday in an effort lo fill 300 of
the above bottles with rich, warm,
life-tfiving b!ood. .
Here is a description of the vital,
ruby liquid which may save the
life of some relative or friend or
even the donor himself. Last year.
alone, 1,400 pints of donated blood
was used lo aid county residents
in Immediate need.
Mrs. Waller Brittcll, blood re
cruitment chairman for the Red
Cross, described blood as a "mir
acle" in the human system which
cannot he manufactured in a lab
oratory. The only way it can be
secured is from the veins of an
other human.
Briefly, she said, the body con
tains about a dozen pints like that
above. The blood is 55 per cent
plasma (water, proteins and min
erals) and 45 per cent solids (red
or while cells and platelets). It
comes in four varieties (O, A, B,
and AB).
This "river of life" courses
I through an estimated 60.000 miles
of arteries, veins and little capil
laries carrying food, oxygen and
water, hormones, chemical regu
lators, vitamins and enzymes. It
also carries off wastes.
These are important enough du
ties, but still more vital activities
are carried on. Blood fights shock,
produces antibodies to battle di
sease. Three hundred pints of whole
blood will help possibly save the
lives of 300 people. When converted
into its many byproducts, it' will
aid 1,125 sufferers.
Despite blood's immense im
portance, Mrs. Brittell pqinls out,
an amount to fill the bottle above
is painless to cive and is easily
replaced in a healthy body.

probation, but the judge gave Pe
terson another chance after the
youth promised to "toe the mark."
In June he was given probation
again after pleading guilty to theft
of equipment from tractors in log
ging operations east of Sutherl'n.
Monday, Jake Leicht. district
parole and probation officer, tes
tified that Peterson quit his job
without permission, failed to keep
in contact with him and had been
giving him more trouble than any
other probationer.
City police Officer Gerald M.
Kane testified to Peterson's recent
arrest, with four other youths, on
a charge of being illegally in pos
session of liquor. Kane said the
youths had beer in their car, that
Peterson admitted drinking some
of it, that the probationer was very
belligerent when told he was un
der arrest. Charges against the
nlher youths are pending in munic
ipal court.
Dist. Atty. Robert M. Stults rec
ommended Peterson's probation
be revoked. In view of Peterson's
prior record "the situation appears
to be one which cannot be super
vised," the district attorney said.
Revocation of probation granted
McAllister was recommended by
the State Board of Parole and Pro
bation. It was brought out that he
had gone to Lewiston, Idaho, to
gain employment without getting
permission.
Also, when first granted proba
lion, McAllister. promised to make
restitution on bad checks within
lio days. Stults said this had nol
been done. McAllister, who served
time in Idaho in 1945-46 on a big
amy count, admitted he knew he
was violating terms of his proba
tion. As he put McAllister's two-year
term into effect', Judge Wimberly
said he couldn't understand why
people like McAllister act the way
they do. "I give probation to these
people." he said, hut "they don't
seem to care whether they go to
the penitentiary or not."
