Blood Promisers Fail To Appear A spell of indifference appar ently struck a large group of Lane county residents Monday, when the mobile unit of the Portland blood center visited Eugene on schedule. A total of 265 persons signed up to be ready to donate blood that day BUT less than 200 kept their appointments! By madly scurrying around and gathering in a group of "stand bys" the blood program commit tee members were able to make their quota of 200 "by the skin of their teeth." "Were our faces red! Through Sunday we waited for any can cellations, having signed up 265 to be prepared for any such emer gency, but only a few' cancella tions came In and MANY per sons did not keep their appoint ments Monday. The disturbing part of the situation is that we have been forced to ask many en thusiastic would-be donors to sign up for April, May, even on to July, because the March list was filled. Then the March group did not come through as prom ised. "We made our quota of 200, but It took considerable last-minute work to do It, and the absent signers caused the unit to be late and under pressure to rush the blood back to Portland on sched ule. "When signers fall to show up, they not only are letting' down the Red Cross they are letting down the servicemen for whom many increased appeals have come In to the Red Cross to arouse the public to give more badly-needed blood." Such was a statement from Mrs. Maylon E. Scott, who chairmans the Blood program in Lane county. Next visitation of the blood mo bile unit In Eugene will be the second Monday in April. "We earnestly appeal to all who have made appointments for that date to keep their appointments promptly, or notify us far enough in advance that we may accept names of others who have been anxious to donate," the commit tee stated further.

This change could be made by the boundry board without an elec tion. Cliaiuts Deferred Legally and technically -the consolidation of Eugene and the six other districts is now in ef fect. For practical purposes, how ever, it is planned that the edu cational programs in the outside district schools will continue virtually unchanged for the bal ance of the school year. Any other changes which might be made will be discussed at the Wednes day night meeting of school boards. It has been estimated that the consolidation program will re sult in a tax rate of about 15 mills, and other guesses put it as high as 20 mills. Rates, however, will vary in the various dis tricts until differences in the value of plants they contribute, as well as other factors, have been adjusted.
