One-third of the incoming Freshman class has signed up to contribute blood for the armed forces, according to results totalled from the War Service Committee's questionnaire, showing that 266 out of 700 of the Class of '46 have checked the affirmative in front of the blood donor item.
The questionnaire, which was included in the Freshman registration envelope, will serve as reference card for the Committee, which will help students find work contributing to the war effort.
