Three-Day Blood Drive Opens in Union Lounge
The three-day campus blood drive opened in the Student Union lounge at 10 a.m. today with 20 student donors giving blood every half hour. Donations will be taken until 4:30 this afternoon.
Thursday and Friday donations will be taken from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Students under 21 years old in the parental release skips must present them when they report at the Bloodmobile.
The Bloodmobile, from the Kansas City Red Cross arrived this month. It is under supervision of Dr. Joe Parker, medical director of the Bloodmobile, who is being assisted by trained graduate nurses from Kansas City.
Local Lawrence women also are assisting and Dr. Ralph I. Canuteon, chairman of the Douglas county blood prgram committee and health service director, said that several students helped unload equipment when the Bloodmobile arrived this morning.
Students wishing to make calls to the Bloodmobile are asked to call KU 469 instead of the local Red Cross chapter in order to save time.
Students who have not registered but wish to donate a pint of blood may "walk in" to the Bloodmobile about 4:30 p.m. any of the three afternoons. If the scheduled persons have been taken care of, any other person may donate, said Heywood Davis, chairman of the campus drive.
Several members of the National Institute of Health will be on hand today to observe and gather information on methods of blood donating. Dr. Canuteson said.

Group Postpones Evaluation Plan
There will be no faculty evaluation program this semester but plans are being made for such a program next fall, Laurence C. Woodruff, dean of men, said today.
The committee sponsored such a plan last spring in co-operation with the Associated Women Students and the Inter-fraternity council. A similar program was attempted during the war.
The plan, sponsored by the Campus Affairs committee, was abandoned for this spring because of a lack of time and money.
Dean Woodruff explained that postponement of the program is in accord with the general attitude of testing experts who hold that such a plan should not be put in effect every semester, or even every year.
Under the faculty evaluation plan each student is provided blank forms on which he records his evaluation of his professors. The unsigned evaluations are placed in sealed envelopes and given to the instructors only after all grades have been recorded.
since he has been here, he has directed 52. In addition, he has directed 13 out of 16 persons receiving doctor's degrees from the department.
Prof. Sherwood holds a bachelor of science in engineering, master of arts in botany, and a Ph.D. in bacteriology from Kansas university. He also holds an M.D. degree from Minnesota university.
Tokyo—(U.R.)—The Chinese Communist Peiping radio charged today that United Nations forces dropped one "poison gas bomb" and fired about 100 gas artillery shells into Communist Korea late last month.
The broadcast said the "gas attack" was concentrated largely against Communist-held areas near the Pamunjom truce conference site on the western front.
The U. N. command has repeatedly denied Communist charges of gas warfare. Gen. Matthew B. Ridgway said in his final press conference here last Saturday that "the Communists are lying and they know they are lying."
The broadcast was the latest in a series of intensive propaganda blasts accusing the U. N. forces of using germ and gas warfare.
Court Justices Argue Over Steel Seizure
It said a U. N. warplane dropped one poison gas bomb at noon April 22, in the area four miles north of Kaesong and listed five instances of the claimed use of gas shells fired by U. N. artillery.
How soon they will emerge with a decision on the historic case is anybody's guess. Two things are certain: The deliberations will not be hurried, and the decision will be handed down sometime before the end of the court's current spring term.
Washington—(U.P.)The nine Supreme court justices went into seclusion in their oak-paneled chambers today to begin arguing among themselves whether President Truman had constitutional power to seize the steel industry.
