Blood Bank Enlists Greeks Within one year it is expected that every able bodied fraternity man in the country will have given at least one pint of his blood to the American Red Cross blood bank. Under the direction of the ex ecutive committee of the Nation al Interfraternity conference, which is composed of over 60 na tional college fraternities in ''Sic U.S. and Canada with approxi mately 2,500 chapters, the organ ized blood donation will be made in cooperation, with the American Red Cross. War Effort Adoption of this mass blood contribution is part of the con ference’s search for ways in -which national Greek letter groups can aid in the further ance of the war effort. John M. MacGregor, chairman of the conference, sent a copy of the resolution to President Roose velt stating that the National In terfratemity conference “offers to assist in organizing the stu dent bodies of the American col leges and universities to the end that every student may appre ciate the need of his donation to the much needed blood bank.” MacGregor also declared in his letter to the president, “among the undergraduates we have al ready found a very enthusiastic response. The donation to the blood bank is one way in which the fraternities can make a prac tical and valuable contribution.” THEy PO EVERYTH !N<r 2k 'BMT FLY— UNCLE SAM'S AMAZING MIDGET SCOUT CARS ARE ROLLING OFF THE LINE DAY AND NIGHT.
