Blood Bank
or Ddde County
Here 2 DAYS

The mobile unit of the Blood
Bank of Dade County will come
to Key West, Monday, March 8
and remain for two, days to ac-
cept blood from local doners.
Arrangements have been made
with DIR. Parramore for the use
OF the Monroe County Health
Clinic, where blood donations
will be received for the two DAYS.
This trip is sponsored by the
Key West Junior Chamber of
Commerce. with Durward Tyus as
chairman of the blood bank COM
| mittee, for the purpose Of setting
UP blood bank in Key West. DR..
John Elliott, famed specialist in
charge of the Dade County Blood
Bank, will assist in setting I'D the
bank in Key West, and Capt. Da-
Wis. head of the Naval Hospital,
! has offered his cooperation.
The Jaycees have sponsored
two previous trips of the unit to
Key West, and established an ac-
count with the blood bank. The
blood has been used by Key
Westers, and the supply is now
exhausted. The blood is urgently
needed and it is emphatic that
residents know that sufficient
supply of all types of blood will
be kept in Key West and will be
available to all local physicians
for immediate use. The blood can
be safely kept for approximately
two weeks. DR.. Elliott has sug-
gested that rather than send the
blood back to Miami for CONVEX
sion to plasma, it should be given
to local doctors for use with
anemic patients. AS the blood is
used in Key West, a fresh supply
will be sent from Miami.
Doners are asked to report to
the Monroe County Health Clinic
between the hours of 8 a. m, and
5 p. M, Monday and Tuesday,
March 3rd and 4th. The doner
suffers no ill effect and the pro-
cedure requires only about ten
minutes. Most doners prefer to
give blood just before a meal. as
food must not be eaten for four
hours before the donation. Any
normal healthy person may give
blood. However, anyone with
heart disease, asthma, hay fever,
allergy, any present infection,
jaundice, or those who have had

Another new Louis venture in
wolves publicity office to send
material to the Negro press.
Just where does Roxborough
fit in?
Well, Roxie is handling many
of Louis's business affairs as in
prewar days when he and Julian
Black managed the champ. Rox-
borough owns an insurance bust
ness with headquarters in De-
troit. Mr.. Joseph Louis Barrow is
a full-fledged partner, too.
Whatever, Louis has left of the
$3,141, 194.61 gross he has earned
in the squared circle may seem
pale compared with the profits
he hopes to realize from his var
ious business ventures.

LOUIS may 90 down in history
ord.
Bob Fitzsimmons and Jack
johnson both were 81 when they
lost the title. Louis still has more
than four years to 60 before
reaching that age. He will be SO
on May Is.
However, the Brown Bomber
and John Roxborough, one Of his
managers, aren't taking any
chances. Roxie isn't waiting for
the day when Louis takes a beat
ing or retires undefeated.
Several Sound Deals
He has lined up several bus
mess deals to keep the wolf away
from the Louis door.
The first Louis business ven
ture was the Harlem restaurant
bearing his name. 1t is belived
that Louis has 40 percent inte-
rest in the eatery. Originally
Louis had 80 per cent but the day
1t opened last fall Promoter Mike
Jacobs gave Joe the 10 percent
supposedly held by the. promoter.
This adds strength to the gem
eral belief that Louis has set
tied his account with the boss of
the goth Century Sporting Club.
Jacobs loaned chunks of money
to Louis while the champion
served in the Army.
Louis crossed $625,916.44 on
the Conn fight and picked up
another $l03,611.89-both less
taxes, of course-when he flat
tened Mauriello in the first
round last September. Surely,
Louis came out all right, 1t would
be time to retire if he hadn't.
With the Louis restaurant 60
ing so well. Roxborough persuad-
cd the dark destroyer to purchase
a Chicago night club. It's known
as the Rhumboogie and is operat-
ed by Leonard Reed.
Perhaps the biggest business
proposition to come along this
winter, besides his February ex-
hibition tour of Latin-Aemrican
countries, is the Joe Louis Punch,
a new line of soda pop soon to
hit the market.
Louis will get 5 percent of the
gross in this business which will
stretch to other countries. The
bubble water makers hope for a
Sl0,000,000 yearly income, mean
ing that Louis may pocket $780,
900 without throwing a punch.
Another recent Louis under
taking was the purchase of a
400-acre farm in Utica, Mich,
a layout that includes cocktail
bar. restaurant, stables and a
dude ranch.
