County To Raise
Quota For Korea
And Gamma Globulin

The second Red Cross blood
center for Noble county will be
held Thursday, April 80, at the
Methodist church in Caldwell,
according to an announcement
made today by Mrs. John D.
Wheeler, blood chairman.
During 1853, the blood center
will come to Noble county three
different dates. Their third and
final will be this fall.
The hours of the blood center
will be from 1890 a. m. to 4:30 p.
NJ, and it will be conducted much
the same as during the first one.
Especially backing the blood
center for April 80 are all the
grange and farm organizations
in this county. Registration cards
may be obtained from Miss
Mabel Sarbaugh or the county
agents office. They are also
available at the Red Cross office.

ers, including the VFW and
American Legion auxiliary.
A certain amount of the blood
collected this time from Noble
county donors will go into the
manufacture of gamma globu-

In explaining gamma globulin
or the new project of the Red
Cross blood center in its fight
against polio, Mrs. Wheeler stat
ed:
ITS far from perfect, far from
complete. For one thing, there's
not nearly enough of it to go
around. For another, it only gives
a child protection for approx
mately five weeks after injection.
Despite these drawbacks,
gamma globulin is a vast step
forward. 1t means that, in the
face of an epidemic, doctors at
last have a weapon with which
to fight back.
Most people have mild at
tacks of polio as children. These
are normally so mild that they
are mistaken for a bad cold or
mild flu. But they're polio, and
