Crowds Throng Post
Office As Oversees
Moiling Period Ends

Pascagoulans crowded in to
the post offices during the last
two days for mailing parcels ov-
erseas and offered a flood of
Christmas gifts to be sent to
members of the armed forces in
the various war theatres of the
world.
AT the main office and at the
Eastlawn branch a long line was
still at the windows when clos
ing time came Monday. The
clerks remained until all of the
well wrapped bundles were
weighed. The number of parcels
mailed on Monday equaled the
number presented on a peak day
during the Christmas season.
postmaster Arthur Smith
thanks all the mailers for their
splendid cooperation in prepar-
ing the soldiers gifts for mailing.
Window clerks we're instructed
to accept no package that was
overweight or unprepared to
stand a long journey. The public
showed excellent judgment in
their selection of gifts and in the
preparation. 1t is believed that
the effort taken will be appre-
ciated when the men and women
overseas receive the gifts.
Parcels for overseas will con-
tinue to be accepted but with no
assurance that they will reach
the addressed in time for Christ
mas. Rules governing overseas
mailing before the Christmas
mailing period are again effec-
tive and a request from the adj
dressee must be presented in
most cases.

st. Stanislaus vineyard line, and
then hit center for the score with
Blanchard kicking the extra
point.
The next score came follow
ing the recovery of a ST. Stanis-
laus tumble by Blanchard on the
20 yard line. Knapp smashed
through guard for three yards
and Blanchard on another end
around carried the ball to the
st. Stanislaus two-yard line. The
visitors defense stiffened and
held for three plays. On the
fourth try Wells whipped a short
pass over the line to Blanchard
who took it with ease for the
score and again kicked the extra
point.
On the opening of the second
quarter Coach Swayze substitute
ed his second string. who had
the best of the play throughout
the quarter and accounted for
another touchdown when Ham
mond recovered a st. S~tanislaus
tumble behind the visitors goal
line. Davis kicked the extra
point.
The final two tallies for the
Tigers came in the fourth quar-
ter, one scored by Blanchard and
the final one by Wells.
The Tigers showed one of the
smoothest working outfits seen
on the Moss Point gridiron in
many a session. They used their
air attack sparingly in Fridays
night battle but when they did
resort to it 1T clicked perfectly.

Bleed Donor
Service In Area
Is Discontinued

Notification has been received
from national Red Cross head
quarters that the New Orleans
Red Cross Blood Donor Service,
through which the Gulf Coast
area is served, has been closed.
For the past several months,
the mobile unit of this service
has come periodically to Jackson
county and 1867 pints of blood
were donated in the five visits,
exceeding the quota set for this
county.
The closing of the blood donor
center in New Orleans was made
advisable by the fact that the
Navy has notified the Red Cross
chapter that the serum albumin
program is nearing completion
and the laboratory in New Or
leans is not equipped to process
the blood into plasma. Blood
plasma is still needed in large
quantities but the 81 centers still
being operated can produce a suf-
ficient supply for the armed for
ces, Red Cross officials explained.
AS director of this program in
Jackson County, Mrs. j. o. Cole
has expressed her deep apprecia-
ton for the cooperation given by
men and women of the county,
both those who served in official
capacities in conducting the
blood donor service and those
| who donated blood.
MANY of our donors gave as
often as the regulations would
allow" she said, land through

He appointed a 12-member board
of inquiry, including prominent sci
