gram collected 1860 pints of blood
in this county. This blood was
used for Armed Services needs as
we'll as for civilians.
Of the total, 447 pints of whole
blood was supplied by the Cleve-
land Blood Center to Magruder
Hospital and 373 units of blood
were supplied to various Toledo
hospitals for use by Ottawa Coun-
ty patients. No charge is made to
civilians for this blood.
The Ottawa County Red Cross
Blood Program will replace, free
of charge, any blood needed by
residents of this county in out-of-
county hospitals as long as the
hospital and doctor will accept it
and the location is within shipping
limits. Thus far, every request
has been met. 1t is the RESPONSE
bility of the patients doctor or
family to ask that the blood be
replaced by Red Cross, or Red
Cross will not know of the need.
Our government has asked that
each person in good health be
blood donor in order to meet the
four-fold responsibility delegated
to the Red Cross by the Depart
ment of Defense Mobilization:
ID for half the nations civilian
hospitals; (2) for the i'll and
wounded in our Armed Services;
(3) for building national plasma
reserve for military and civilian
needs and (4) for use to provide
maximum of gamma globulin,
which has been found effective in
preventing the paralysis which
often accompanies polio.
