Far Short of Mobile Unit Here Dec. 11th With the scheduled visit of the Red Cross Mobile unit only one week away, the number of New ark volunteer blood donors is a hundred short of the still total that can be taken, care of on the mobile unit’s first dhy here, and only 10 per cent of the J quota.set for this community. Only 54 persons, 12 of them women, have volunteered blood thus far in the local campaign, with 500’set by the Red Cross as ' the quota from Newark. ]. New efforts are being this week by the Newark Volun'- ! teer Blood Donor Committee, headed -by Floyd Winegard, to get local people to realize their patriotic responsibility and offer a small amount of their blood for this important project. Plea Made to Groups The list oJUdonors so far dis closes that tew members from any civic, fraternal or service men’s organizations have come forward, and special attempts will be made during the next, week to enlist groups of volun teers from these organizations as well as from the various in dustrial concerns in town.

The meeting was well at tended, with nearly every store represented, and all agreed to abide by the deci sion, which will give- .the buy ing public the convenience of shopping on eight evenings before Christmas, and at The same time assure storemen and clerks a- chance to spend a little tinie with their own; Christmas preparations the night before Christnjas. -. ; Owing to the unanimous agreement- of those at the meeting, it is expected that the few storemen who were unable to attend will join in the accord, a,nd that a few Newark stores already open ing evenings will remain closed evenings, except Satur days, until the general s tart ing date December 15, STATE HEAD To NEW MARK ACHIEVE#!
