The need for blood from Sugar House is acute. Mrs. Geraldine Irving, manager of a local dress shop, recently underwent two serious se-rious operations. She was released from the hospital, then taken back again to have some infection in the brain cleared. She received a total of 11 pints of blood in transfusion trans-fusion while in the hospital." Mrs. Irving does not have any family in Salt Lake City at all, so the Chamber of Commerce took over the responsibiljty of replacing the blood in the blood bank. Last month, two Chamber members mem-bers and two Independent staffers bared their arms' to replace some of the blood needed for Mrs. Irving. Irv-ing. Robert Herman, CPA and Warren Ottley, merchant, Jack Harvey and Virginia Baker all trekked to the blood bank on Foothill Foot-hill Boulevard. Mr. Hauert says that Sugar House and Highland Strip merchants merch-ants will be asked to appeal to their employees to answer the call for life -giving blood. Names of ....all donors will be published in the Independent the Thursday following follow-ing the drawing. |
