Fewer Volunteer For Viet Nam WASHINGTON (AP) — The number of Army soldiers volun teering for service in Viet Nam has dropped sharply and stead ily since December, it was dis closed recently.

Statistics made available on re quest showed that the monthly total of Army men asking to go to Viet Nam reached a peak of 4,492 in December. This fell to 2,568 in January,! to 2,280 in February and 1,710 last month. The Army said 26,342 soldiers had volunteered for Viet Nam in the past 12 months.

The bank, normally open to the public, will accept donations from University students only, today, particularly for the University's Stacey Green Memorial Blood Donor Club. Hours at the bank are, as usual, 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. today. The bank is also open from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thurs days, and, by appointment from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday. The club, named in memory of a former University music professor, who was given 23 pints of blood shortly before his death in 1962, presently has about 160 members, all of whom are pledg ed to donate blood to a University account kept by the Bank. In the event of an Injury to a University student requiring blood transfusions, the Lane Bank draws on the club's account for however much is needed. Families of students in the club may also benefit—they are eligible to receive blood in emer gencies from their home bank, which may then draw on the club's account to make up their deficit. According to Paul Paquin, chairman of the club, about 75 pints of blood were obtained last year through the club, mostly for University students, faculty, and staff. Two local cases of open - heart surgery were aided last year by drawing blood from the club's, account. Paquin says the club now has 27 units in its accounts, and that many more are needed to maintain a safe level. Today the bank is offering stu dents a chance to refurbish the student account and to become part of the t:lub. According to l’aquin, a student need only do nate to become a member—and possibly receive the benefits thereof. Paquin keeps a record of names of students contributing to the University blood fund When ever there’s a shortage, he con tacts students for donations, pro viding they haven't contributed for the required three-month pe riod. l’aquin is also contacted when the bunk is caught short of blood and wants to draw from the Uni versity account, as in the case of the open-heart operations last year The bank also contributes plas ma to the armed forces as a rhar ity, and this, too, is taken from the University club’s account. The units are sent to the defense de partment in blocks of 300, ob tained from blood that has been stored too long to be used for di rect transfusions. Deficits created by these contributions are then made up. by permission, from the University club’s account. Sic inn Phi Epsilon, University fraternity, is sponsoring a blood drive for United States forces in Viet Nam, and this is also han dled by the Blood Donor Club and the Lane Hank. Students who want to contribute to this drive may so specify when they do nate to the bunk.
