The pressing needs of war have greatly increased the demand for plasma. To meet this demand Phillips Brooks House is pushing a campaign to get Harvard students over 18 years of age to give their blood. All Houses are being canvassed.
Before donating, each person is given a simple physical examination and after giving blood, light refreshments are served. The process takes only three-quarters of an hour. Students contributing are given a Red Cross Blood Donor pin.
Donations can be made every eight weeks but no more than five times a year. Appointments can be made at the Red Cross Chapter at 485 Boylston Street on weekdays from 8:45 in the morning until 8:30 o'clock in the evening and on Saturdays until 5 o'clock. Navy donations can be made at Thayer Dispensary.
