TRANSMISSION
BLOOD CUT TO
SIS PER PINT
Having Price at Hospitals
Reduces Revenue to
Students.
BY DAN M. KIDNEY

Blood has dropped at both city
and Indiana University hospitals
here.
DR., Edward Thompson, Superin-
tendent of the university group Of
hospitals, has announced that in
the future both there and at city
hospital blood will be paid for at
S25 a pint. In the past it has been
$50.
To many medical students, now
on vacation from their classes at the
Indiana University Medical College.
which is located with the hospital
group here. this drop in the market
price Of blood will be sad news.
Cuts Student Revenue
1t means the cutting in two of one
of the best revenue sources for sew
eral students each year. For it is
usually to the students that appeal
is made when blood transfusions are
needed at the Robert w. Long,
James Whitcomb Riley, Coleman or
city hospitals.
In the past, several students have
Melted as high as 5000 extra during
the school year by submitting a
pint of blood on occasion.
DR.. Thompson, who succeeded DR..
Robert E. Neff as head of the in
situations, put the new price list
into effect since school closed and
hasn't tested the student reaction.
He feels that there will be sufficient
volunteers at the new price, he said.
Average 25 Year
Transfusions average about TWEEN
ty-flve during the school year, most
of which are given patients at the
Long hospital. General cases are
handled there. while the Riley hos
pitai is for children and Coleman
for women.
"Of course the student who has
been submitting to four or five
transfusions during the year will
miss the revenue, but I believe the
new rule is the best for all con-
cerned," DR.. Thompson said.
MANY of our patients are of mod
est means and there are plenty of
charity cases, so we have concluded
that $25 is more nearly proper
fee than $50. That is the customary
charge in other institutions of SINH
lar nature with which I am familiar.
$50 far as I know, they have no
difficulty in getting blood at that
price"
Everyone Not Eligible
He pointed out that every student
is not eligible to give blood for
TRANSMISSION. Thorough tests must
be made before eligibility is de-
clared.
Both patients and those from
whom the blood is taken are divided
into four classes. The person giving
the blood must fit into the same
classification as the one who is to
receive it. Otherwise the blood will
CONCEAL, rather than serve its useful
purpose, and the TRANSMISSION would
be fatal.
These classifications are based on
the blood texture and scientific tests
are made to determine whether IL
fits class one, two, three or four
A number one blood would be inn
possible for number four and Sc
forth, DR.. Thompson said.
Besides the classification tests. the
blood must be of good quality and
J free from all faint.

LUCK JEERS AT
HOOVER AS He
GOES FISHING
Not Even a NibbIe Rewards
Candidate as He Whips
Two Rivers.
BY PAUL r. MALLON
United Press STAFF Correspondent

BROWNS CAMP, NEAR HORN
BROOK, Cal, July 31.-Herbert
Hoover is having flshermens luck,
which all fishermen know is no luck
at all.
In about five hours of casting on
the Rogue and klamath Rivers,
which are supposed to be filled with
fish, he has not had a nibble.
His proves at the art is we'll
known. For nearly twenty years
he has been coming up to this re-
gion and skillfully hauling steel
meadS from the streams. Now, with
photographers and newspaper re-
porterS following him, he can't seem
to land any.
And the strangest part of the
story is, he admits it.
All newspaper men who have at
tended the official fishing exhibit
tons of prominent men know that
they must publish the official an
nouncement of the catch, even
though they have a tongue in their
cheek while writing.
Won't Use Fake Means
They know a lot more about fish
caught for public announcement
than are served on political dinner
tables. No public officer e--er comes
back from a private exhibition
without some kind of a good fish
ing story to be announced. If none
is caught, the movie photographers
know that property fish" readily
can be bought at the nearest mar
ket so that the. public will not be
without satisfactory views.
To Hoover all these subterfuges
are known, but disregarded.
The truth of the matter is Hoover
has a perfect alibi although he will
not say so. First it was the pho
tographers. They trudged a few
feet behind him every step he took
along the Rogue River near Med
ford, Ore.
He became so eXaSperated he fin
ally told them, "either you go home
or I go home. There are two things
man should be able to do in
privacy, fish and pray" 1t was
Hoover who had to go home, pho
tographerS being more persistent
even than Republican presidential
candidates.
Fishing Is Ruined
When Hoover abandoned the
Rogue River he climbed by motor
twenty-three miles from Hornbrook,
Cal, to Browns camp and houses
himself at the lodge of his friend,
Milton Esberg, San Francisco bank
er. He decided to wait until after
noon to fish.
The waters were clear before
lunch. From Esberg's porch one
could see the fish jumping. After
lunch he walked out on the porch
The river had climbed six feet and
was muddy. A power dam up in
the mountains had opened it's spill
way and ruined fishing for the day
Hoover tried, anyway. and found
he had no luck. He rode thirty five
miles down the canyon in an effort
to get away from the muddy waters
but had no success. Today he is
going to try again. The water Is
expected to be clear. A bad begin
ming makes a good ending, he says

mo ABUSE OF
BOYS IN CELL,
PROBER FINDS
Report to Charities Board
CritiCiseS Solitary in
City Jail.

The board of State charities to-
day concluded there was no abuse"
of five youths confined twenty-four
hours in the hole" in Marion Coun-
ty jail last week, but found that
the solitary cell in this jail is not
sufficiently ventilated for more than
one person confined there
In quarterly session the board ap-
proved the report of John A. Brown
it's secretary, who investigated the
solitary cell Saturday after COM
plants we're voiced in Criminal
Court by Lyle Conover, 16, of 1902
Ashland Ave-, one Of the five boys
imprisoned.
Browns report stated that his at
tention was called to the complaints
July 26. Investigation showed,
Brown reported, that Conover and
six other youths we're placed in the
cell Wednesday morning by Deputy
Sheriff Samuel Parker, Negro, for
overturning a mess bSnch. Two OF
the boys we're released on bail after
two hours.
Boys Get Water
Although Conover told Criminal
Judge James A. Collins there had
been no provision for drinking wa
ter; Brown said the boy admitted to
him that he was given a drink at
IL a. M, then dinner, another drink
at p. M, then supper, and another
drink at bedtime.
But bedtime was misnomer,
Browns report indicated, there be-
ing no mattress or bedclothing in
the cell.
1.-THE cell known as the hole is
one with solid steel walls about |
eight feet long, seven feet wide and |
nine feet high" Brown told the |
board. "It has ventilating duct |
from the floor in one corner extend
ing through the ceiling.
There is one opening about three |
and one-half inches in diameter in
the we'll next to the corridor where
there is a window. The door is a |
sliding door and fits rather loosely. |
The cell is equipped with a modern
toilet. It was reasonably clean.
This cell is the only means of
discipline used and it is said by
the sheriff and his officers that no
one is confined therein for more
than twenty-four hours.
There is no evidence there was
any abuse of the boys or that they
were deprived of food or water.
Ventilation Bad
1.-THE practice of combining more
than one person at time is queS-
toned, not only because of the size
of the cell and the provision for
ventilation, but from the standpoint
Of discipline as well.
SOLITARY confinement under proper
conditions is recognized among
prison officials as humane and eff
fective discipline. It's effectiveness
is largely destroyed when two or
more are placed in such cell to-
gether.
1.-THE solitary cell in this jail is
not sufficiently ventilated for more
than one person confined there. A
mattress should be supplied to the
prison for sleeping purposes"
Four others confined with Con-
over-Harold PasseWaited, James
Hogan, Leonard Ballard and Samuel !
WilSon-told Brown, he said, there
had been no abuse or nistreatment |
Of any kind.
Parker told the charities board |
secretary he had warned the boys |
repeatedly about their conduct in
the mess room and that he confined |
all of them when none would admit |
overturning the bench.

NEW YORK. May 14.-(P)-While
the heavyweight champion, Gene

of his Spectator camp to prepare
for the seasons biggest fistic shot,
the spotlight of the ring turns this
week to the lightweight revival, fea-
turing "Baby Face" Jimmy McLar-

Mandell will take his worlds title
out Of storage Thursday night and
defend it in a l5-round match
against the sharpshooting young
Irish lad for the second time since
he won it from the veteran, Rocky
Kansas.
McLarnin can hit. Sid ferris, Kid
Kaplan and a few others will testify
that the "baby faced" youth packs
a wallop like the kick of a mule.
Mandell also packs a punch, but the
champions forte is skillful foot
work and boxing ability.
IL will be the biggest money bat
tie for the lightweight crown since
Benny Leonard's last scrap with Lew

the most spectacular title bout in
the division, since Benny was Civ
