THREE STUDENTS VOLUNTEER BLOOD FOR TRANSFUSIONS

So far three students in the Harvard Summer School have volunteered to give blood for transfusions at from $25 to $50. The Deaconess Hospital in Boston gives tests to determine four groupings for donors; patients are also divided into four corresponding groups. The amount of the fee depends upon whether the patient is in a private or open ward. The usual amount of blood transferred in one pint in this case, but there are professional blood-sellers who can give as much as one gallon a month without endangering their health.
