" 5^ fHROMCLE li^J/ Serving Cqlumbua and Cenlral Ohio lewlah CorruJaunlty ^yj^W^ Vol. 27, No..24 COLUMBUS, omOi FRIDAY, JUNE 17, 1949 Devot«d to AoierlMB mnd J«wlih Idemls Blood Donors Answer Mercy Call for Leukemia Victim The value of Jewish people participating in the program of the Red Cross Regional Blood Center has proven its worth in a short tirfie. , - , I When it was decided last week to sendfive donors each week to the Blood Center at 30 E. Town St., thereby insuring • priority for Red Cross biood to all Jew¬ ish people in Frapklin County, It was not expected that an emergency would arise so soon.' On Friday of last week, an ap¬ peal was received by the Jewish Community Council to aid In getting donors for Magnus Mar¬ golls, age 32, of Dayton, O., who Is a victim of leukemia. Margolls was transferred over the weekend from the Dayton General Hospital to University Hospital here, where he will un¬ dergo a series of 3(^ blood trans¬ fusions within the next few days In treatment of the disease. As Dayton Is not within the region servlcecl hy the Colum¬ bus Regional Blood Center, the appeal was made to the Jewish Temple Brotherhood Names Richard Abel Among the first Ben B'riths who volunteered to donate blood were the men pictured above. Standing, left to right, are BUI ElKcnberg, Alex Stregevsky, Richard Grundstein and Gerald Rosen. Mrs. h. B. .Moorehead, nurse and staff aide. Is recording information -fi-om Donor Franl< Niitis, sealed. (Photo by Topy) '• Community Council for donors. Anthony L. Schmleg, Center Director, guaranteed 12 plnts-of bipod to be used for Margolls on Monday and Tuesday, the J'irst two days of the treatment, and more If needed for this ¦ emergency. The Dayton Red Cross Chap¬ ter offered transportation for donors from that city; and on Sunday, the local Blood Center was opened briefly for 10 donors from Dayton. Monday the Center was kept open one hour after the 7 o'clpck closing time, to ac¬ commodate 12 more donors'from that city. In Columbus, at least 10 per¬ sons an.sweced a telephone ap¬ peal from' the office of B'nal H'rith by making donations on Monday. Others were sclreduled to donate for Margolls during the week. This experience clearly shows the Imparlance to every .lewish family of participating In the Red Cross Blood Program. By sending five donors each week to the Blood Center, the entire Jewish* population of Franklin County will be given priority for Red Cross blood, if and when needed and in the amount need¬ ed, and at no cost for the blood. Arty Jewish person needing ti-ansfilsions in any Frankiln County hospital, need only men¬ tion to his physician or hospital official that he Is of Jewish faith and Red Cross Wood will be available because of our partici¬ pation in this program. Blood donor cards should be sigrted and returned to the B'nal B'rith office as soon as possible In order that the weekly sche¬ dule of donors at the Regional Blood Center can be maintained.
