Lincoln County Blood Program
Chairman


Chairman
The Bloodmobile Unit was at
Boyer City for six hours on Tues
day, but the number of donors
who went to give blood was disap-
pointing.
With the number of pints given
steadily declining since the Sep
'tember visit, it was hoped that
there would be a much better re-
sponse to the pleas for donors this
time.
RESPONSE BETTER
The response this visit was
better than the visits in N0vem-
ber and December, but it was
still thirty seven pints below the
quota. Since we are now right on
the border line of suspension, it
is very necessary that we make
more than quota at the visit in
March.
A very attractive plaque is being
given to every county in the Meek
lenberg Blood Area that secures
at least 100 pct. of quota during
the year. We can do this in Lin
coin County if we will Your help
at the March visit will help to
make this possible and will help to
make the Blood Bank a more ef-
eective service to you and your
community.
BOGER CITY HELPERS
We are very grateful to the Bo-
ger City Methodist Church, and
its pastor for making it possible
to have the Bloodmobile unit at
Boyer City. We also appreciate the
interest and service of the wom-
en- of the church who were on hand
all day and provided very deli
cious lunches for the volunteer
workers.
Our thanks to all of the vofun-
teers who assisted in this Blood
mobile visit. They were: Mrs.
