Carolyn Holmes Urges
Student Red Cross Aid
“Students don’t seem to realize how much they could
do So help if they only would. Five minutes of your time would
help so much.’’ So says Carolyn Holmes, in charge of the cam
pus Red Cross center.
“The office is open every Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
It's located on the third floor of Chapman, so come when you
wa.: t to, stay as long as you can,
and leave when you want to."
Tie duties of the office and
staff are threefold: first, they
are supposed to build up an
emergency closet of bedding,
cooking utensils, and miscella
neous items which would prove
•useful in case of an emergency
on the campus; second, they are
to provide materials for sewing
and knitting, and are to keep a
complete file of volunteers; and
third, they should gather mate
rials for making arm rests, com
fort kits, etc., for men in the
artsy.
Knitting
Two groups, Kwama and Phi
Theta Upsilon, sophomore and
junior women's honoraries, re
spectively, handle knitting and
sewing, working directly with
faculty instructors. Kwamas have
charge of the knitting and are re
sponsible for checking supplies
in and out; the Phi Thetas head
the sewing work.
Both groups work under home
economic instructors, and help
vol nteers with their work when
they need assistance.
Groups
B-ioda Harkson has charge of
the Kwamas, and Nelda Chris
tensen heads the Phi Thetas. Sue
Sawyer, Arliss Boone, and Ruth
Colons take care of the typing,
phoning, and general organiza
tion necessary in such a group,
awl Marilyn Campbell has charge
of promotion and publicity.
The emphasis is on practical
garments, and during the short
time the center has been in ex
istence, twenty-four utility bags,
twenty-five muslin bedside bags,
ftrui eight bed shirts have been
completed. They are now work
ing on boys' trousers for refugee
children.
