Asklepiads, premedic honor so ciety, are in charge of the blood bank section of the campus war board. Students were asked to volunteer through their living or ganizations, which will be con tacted by Asklepiads. Unaffiliated independents may contact Dr. E. D. Furrer, whose offices are in the Miner building. Brinton urged campus students to volunteer in order to help the local blood bank fill the quota set by Red Cross officials. So far in the history of the bank, over 650 volunteers have been typed, 533 of whom donated blood, Dr. Furrer said. A limited amount of -whole blood is kept available for trans fusions, Furrer declared. Plasma is removed from the remainder and is bottled in single unit and ten unit bottles, some of which are stored in different refrigera tion centers in Eugene. Several centers are used to prevent the loss of the entire blood bank in case an enemy bombing attack should destroy any one of the centers. The local Red Cross volunteer blood bank has 153 units of plas ma available for local disaster, Red Cross, army or navy call, de clared Dr. Furrer.
