Meyers, chairman of the Red Cross blood donor committee. "Washington's birthday is a day well suited to remind the public of its life-saving obliga tion to the men in service," he stated. "Not only was the pur ple heart originated by George Washington in 1782, but the purple heart award now given the men wounded in action carries the image of the first president, and first general of our armies. "From Salem and nearby communities alone, there must be dozens of soldiers and sailors now wearing the purple heart who are alive today only be cause someone gave to the Red Cross a pint of blood from which life-saving blood plasma was processed. "The 1944 goal set by the national chapter is nearly 11, 000,000 pints of blood, approxi- did not close in rural schools until Friday night and the to tal for Swegle was $2,922.60, and Auburn, $1,760, or the pur chase price of 27 parachutes. n" .- i K y I ftx Wounded Soldiers From Kwajalein iP) Wounded doughboys of the 7th army division walk down the gangplank of a hospital ship docked at Honolulu with casualties from the Kwajalein atoll invasion.
