Committee Collects Blood for Cyprus

Local Greek and Cypriot students and faculty members of the Committee for Relief and the Restoration of Democracy in Cyprus have collected over 100 pints of blood since Tuesday to aid Greek Cypriot victims of this week's fighting in Cyprus.

With Red Cross

The committee is collecting blood and money in conjunction with the International Red Cross and the Cyprus Mission to the United Nations, Fotis F. Kafatos, professor of Biology, said yesterday.

Kafatos said, however, that the committee has not yet received very much monetary support.

The committee advocates the withdrawal of all foreign troops from Cypriot soil and the reinstatement of Archbishop Makarios as president of Cyprus, Kafatos said.
