Because of several recent mis-
Understandings, the Union Coun-
ty Red Cross chapter today re-
leased detailed outline of the
blood program as it effects Union
county.
Union county last year was
the only county in the l8-county
area by the Columbus Regional
blood center to meet its blood
quota. Chapter officials are de-
termined to keep up to the goal
and thus assure every Union
countian of being eligible for free
blood at any hospital in the area
covered by the blood center.
Most of the misunderstanding
have resulted from cases in hos

sfoO 10 LIBRARY BY COLUMBIA LUMBER;
 H-S-N GIVES S5Q

Lumber isn't the only material needed to build the Juneau Memorial Library, it was brought out today as the Columbia Lumber Company took 100 frogskins out of their retail yarc here and donated it to the fund.
 At the same time, Thomas A. Nor gan, president and director Of the firm, gave B. D, Stewart, acting di- rector of the drive, check for Sl,- OC0 to fulfil his pledge made many months ago when the drive was get ting under way.
 Morgan's pledge and check is the donation of himself and family Mrs. Mary Sue Morgan and their son, Thomas Jr.
 A don't -look-now" anonymous contribution of $50 was coupled with Columbia Lumber's check to make the days total $50 for the fund This brings the needed money down to S1,5l2.19-close to the mark which Stewart had hoped for earlier IT the week.
 The lumber mill has mills at Sitka and Whittier, and retail yards here at it's headquarters, at the two mill sites and in Anchorage.
 The company's check was signed by L. R. Hogins, manager of the Juneau yard.
 Another check for s100 was re- ceived by Stewart to fulfill an earl fer anonymous pledge made some time ago, he said. These pledges had of course already been subtracteo from the needed funds for the struc- ture.
 The s1,51219 remaining, to be ob- tained is all that's left in the drive for $7O,0OO to build the library. This money will be matched by federal funds through the Community Facilities agency. created to aid projetcs such as this.
 This weeks efforts by individuals groups and firms throughout the city amounted to $553.00. bringing the amount needed last Saturday down from $2,O65.19 to the present figure. That's good going.
