More Blood Donors Needed For Monday More Donors Needed To Reach Set Quota Monday is blood donors day in Decatur, but the Red Cross still needs 50 more to reach its goal o£ 127 -pints, Mrs. Ed Bauer, coun> ty blood program chairman, announced today. Beginning at 10 o’clock in the morning, and until 4 o’clock in the afternoon, the Red Cross will schedule donors at the Decatur Youth and Community Center. Here each former donor will present his blood card for a check. New donors will have a card prepared, listing their blood type, address, and date that they give blood. New donors are urgently needed, Mrs. Bauer warned, to keep the blood bank up to a sable level. All blood from this area is rushed to Fort Wayne under refrigeration, and it is kept there, and released when needed to all hospital in the area. The Adams county memorial hospital is one of many in this part of Indiana depending entirely on Red Cross blood for its transfusions. Quite often persons would die of it were not for blood rushed to them from Red Cross depots. Another fine aspect of the program, Mrs. Bauer continue, is that anyone from Adams county, anywhere in the U.S., may get blood free of all charges except hospital tests and transfusion charges which vary from hospital to hospital. But the blood, which would cost $25 to SSO a pint in addition, is free, because Adams county supports the Red Cross blood program.

After checking cards, each donor is weighed and his or her blood is tested to see that it has a high enough iron content sp that the donor can safely give blood. Anyone between the ages of 21 and 50 may give, and youths between 18 and 21 may give with their parents’ permission. After the donor is checked by a nurse, and a doctor if necessary or desired, he or she then enters the room, where blood is given. Each person lies down on a comfortable bedlike table, and registered nurses whose job is fulltime with the Red Cross, painlessly puncture the arm as the patient lies quiet, and the blood runs into a collection bottle. The donor need not watch, but may talk if he or she desires with the nurses or other patients. When the bottle is full the nurse removes the tube, places a piece of sterile cotton over the very small cut, and in a few minutes the patient goes to the lunch room where he eats sandwiches and coffee before being released. Hundreds of Adams county people have given blood in the past, Mrs. Bauer stated, and the program is a very necessary one. No blood is ever wasted, and if it becomes necessary to use the blood, it is broken down into its component parts, and the blood plasma and other parts go for the use of the boys in service.

7 Democrats Unopposed On County Ticket Seven Democratic Trustee Candidates Are Also Unopposed Seven Democrats on the county ticket will go into office unopposed following the election November 4. Top among these is state senator Von A. “Pat” Eichhorn, of Uniondale, in Wells county. Sen. Eichhorn, a familiar figure in the Indiana senate since 1936, is the dean of that august body, having served longer than any other man. He is well-known over his three-county district of Wells, Adams and Blackford counties. His name will appear in second spot on the county ballot in the right column. Severin H. Schurgef, Democratic candidate for prosecuting attorney, will also take office unopposed. Schurger has twice held the office before, winning unopposed in 1948, and defeating Robert G. Smith, 4,725 to 4,027, in 1950. For the past four years Schurger has been a candidate on the state ticket for judge of the appellate court. This year G. Remy Bierly, former clerk of the circuit court, prosecutor, and state representative, is a state Democratic candidate for that office. Richard D. Lewton is unopposed for a second term as county clerk. Lewton has been one of the most popular men to hold county office in Adams county in the past 100 years, having held the post of county treasurer before being elected clerk in 1954. Merle Affolder, second sheriff to hold a four-year term, and first four-year man to seek re-elec-tion, is so popular that he was unopposed in the primary, a very unusual thing. Democratic sheriff primaries have drawn as many as 18 candidates. Affolder is again unopposed in the fall election next Tuesday. -Also unopposed on every county ballot are the three county councilmen at large: William F. Kruetzman, Leon Neuenschwander, Frank E. Bohnke. There are several other candidates who will face no opposition on election day, including seven of the 12 Democratic trustee candidates. Unopposed are trustee candidat-

Much At Stake In California Voting High Stoke To Both Political Parties SAN FRANCISCO (UPD—Much is at stake for both political parties in next Tuesday’s California election. TJje Republicans, In power for 20 years in the nation’s second most populous state, are in trouble and optimistic Democrats are predicting a major victory, perhaps even a sweep for their entire ticket. U.S. Sen. William F. Knowland, the GOP candidate for governor, ran 662,000 votes behind the Democratic nominee, state Atty. Gen. Edmund G. (Pat) Brown, 53, in the June primary election. Since then Knowland has waged a shirt-sleeve, precinct-level campaign throughout the entire state, but almost all newspaper polls and other surveys still show Brown with a long lead. Knowland said last week that if he loses to Brown he would not expect to be a candidate for public office again. Thus a Brown victory would all but put an end to the presidential aspirations of thie 50-year-old Knowland, who inherited the mantle of Republican Party leadership in the Senate from the late Sen. Robert A. Taft of Ohio. In the equaly important contest for the U.S. Senate, the Repubican nominee. Gov. Goodwin J. Knight, 61, took a thumping in Continued to paxe S-A
