More Blood Donors Are Needed Friday At least 40 more local residents are needed to fill the Decatur Red Cross blood program' quota of 170 volunteers as the latest figures show that 130 have called the local chapter for appointments. Young persons between the ages of 18-21, are especially asked to call 3-3106, or 3-3107 for appointments before Friday, when the nsobfle unit of the Red Cross will be at the Decatur Youth and Community Center to accept the blood donations. Universal Medicine The use of blood, often called the universal medicine, accounted for the survival of 97.3 of all wounded American servicemen in World War 11, and in peacetime, doctors attempted to emulate their war .record, only to find that blood was not as plentiful as it was during the war years. Hospitals had to establish blood banks at extravagent costs, which were an added burden to the patient, who had to pay from $5 to $25 for a pint. The Red Cross then undertook the project to supply hospitals blood at no cost to the patient. He merely pays for handling and distribution, but not for the blood itself, which is donated. The blood then can be used as whole blood as is the case in many accidents and operations, or can be used as derivatives to treat special cases. For example, a whole blood derivative is gamma globulin, which is injected to prevent measles. Serum albumin is used to treat shock; fibrinogen is used

to stop hemorrhage; red cflls are used to treat anemia, and frozen plasma is used to treat hemophiliacs, persons who tend to bleed uncontrollably even at the slightest wound. Blood Deratives Useful All of these derivatives can be stored for months and even years without damage to their usefulness. They also increase the numerical possibilities of treatment, when one considers that eight pints of whole, blood” can be used to help only eight persons, but the same whole blood converted into derivatives can help upwards of 30 persons. Whatever the call, for whole blood or one of its derivatives, someone is helped in the time of emergency by blood that is donated. If local residents are pot certain of their schedules on Friday, is is Suggested by Mrs. Wanda Oelberg, executive secretary of the local chapter, that they use the time from 12:15 to 1 p.m. and 1:15 to 3 p.m., June 5. to walk in and donate at the Center. These times will allow little waiting as other times are heavily scheduled.

Invasion Force Is Scattered In Nicaragua MANAGUA, Nicaragua (UPD— President Luis Somoza’s government said today about 100 airborne invaders, who landed in central Nicaragua this week, are fleeing for the hills, closely pursued by loyal troops. In Washington, informed sources said Nicaraguan Ambassador Guillermo Sevilla Sacasa will complain formaly to the Orgnization of Americn States about the “foreign - based” invasion later this week. They said Sevilla will denounce the invaders’ foreign friends as “disturbers of the peace in the Caribbean area,” but will not ask t dd rcntly n Panam.) the OAS to intervene directly as it did recently in Panama.) Two-Pronged Invasion A communique said the invad- ’ ers, arriving by air from Costa Rica, came in two groups—so men who landed Sunday near Los Molejones in Chontales Province, and 50 to 60 who landed Monday on the Plains of Olama in Matagalpa Provnice. In each case, the communique said, the invasion force was scattered by loyal fighter planes which attacked within minutes of the landing and harried by loyal ground patrols which arrived a few hours later. .The official announcement said the plane that carried Monday’s invaders blew up when Nicaraguan fighters strafed it after the landing, apparently because it was loaded with ammunition. (Official sources in San Jose • said the plane, a Costa Rican C-46 airliner, crashed and burned after being forced down by Nicaraguan fighters, killing all of the 50 to 60 persons aboard. Rebel Leaders Aboard (Unconfirmed reports said the plane was piloted by Capt. Manuel Rivas Gomez, who had been identified earlier as commander of the rebel air force, and carried among its passengers Pedro J. Chamorro, a refugee newsman who was second in command of the rebel forces.) The communique made no mention of casualties, nor did it indicate the size of the government forces battling the invaders. Nicaraguan Information Secretary Vicente Urcullu told United 1 Press International tin a teleL phoned interview that Managua was quiet under the J martial law proclaimed by Somofa Saturday. The communique said “peace reigns" throughout Nicaragua except in the two invasion centers. Gasoline Reported Stolen From Auto Mrs. Isabelle Cancino, of 609 Schirmeyer, reported to city police Monday at 3:23 p.m. that one-half tank of gasoline was stolen from th efamily auto sometime, after 10 p.m. Sunday. The auto was parked to the rear of the home when the gasoline was removed. Police are investigating.

Rev. W. C. Feller Will Attend Synod The Rev. William C. Feller, pastor of the Zion Evangelical and Reformed church will attend the first general synod of the United Church of Christ as an official delegate July 5-9 in Oberlin, 0. Leo Kirsch, Decatur postmaster, is an alternate lay delegate from the Michigan-Indiana synod, comprised of more than 120 churches in the two-state area. ' The 12 delegates, six ministers and six lay persons, from the local synod, from Michigan and the northern half of Indiana, will assist in determining the future form of government for the assembly, which was founded two years ago. Consideration of a proposed constitution for the church is the main item of business before the 700 delegates to the synod. It was. prepared by a 20-member com-, mission, equally representative ‘of the Congregational Christian churches rMd of fne Evangelical and Reformed church, which has been at work for two years. The constitution Is expected to fuse two diverse forms of church government. The Evangelical and Reformed church, which unit- , ed with the general council of the Congregational Christian churches ; in June, 1957, to form the United : Church, has a presbyterial form i of government. Regional governing bodies called synods have authority over local churches. J Congregational Christian chur- ’ ches are autonomous, although local churches have voluntarily . banded together in local associations and state conferences. Similar differences obtain in the organization of the two bodies nationally. The Evangelical and Reformed church has a general synod, a national governing body to which its home and foreign missionary boards and other national agencies are subordinate. The synod maintains a central ‘ treasury and allocates funds to the other agencies. , The church is headed by a presit dent, who is the communion’s [ chief executive officer. The current president is Rev. Dr. James ■ E. Wagner, Philadelphia, who is ■ also co-president of the United t Church of Christ. The general council, mission J boards and other national agen--1 cies of the Congregational Chrisj tion churches, on the other hand, v are autonomous and independently incorporated. Each is governed > by a board of directors drawn . from the membership of the churches. Each determines and controls its own budget and program. > JLj©(2sills k f Visiting with Mr. and Mrs. Leo i Kirsch of rural route 1, over the ) holiday, were Mr. and Mrs. Charl les McCrory of Terre Haute, and • Clay Vincent and Don R.
