Blood Bank Is Largest Ever Held The Red Cross Mobile Blood Bank visited Livonia for the fifth time September 15th. One Hun- dred and forty donors came to Wilcox school to offer one pint of their blood to the U. S. Armed Forces. Fourteen were refused for their own protection, leaving 126 - pints of blood actually collected for this"vital project. . This is the largest amount col-, lected at any one Blood Bank, in Livonia, so Livonia Township can be justly proud of it's don- ors. Mrs. Jesse Zeigler, chairman wishes to thank the Wilcox school board for its fine cooperation in dismissing school for the after- noon and also thanks the 40 staff workers whose 10 hour working day made this project possible. The Motor Corps .brought and took home donors who did not have transportation facilities. Mrs. Zeigler and two assistants greeted donors and took them to Mrs. Earl Westphal, Livonia reg- istrar who brought their donor cards up to date. Four Livonia nurses, two Home nursing graduates and one nurses' aid assisted the Mobile Bank staff in caring for the donors.

'6 Livonia's Civilian Defense op- erations were again upset this week by the resignation of asso- ciate coordinator Les. Boudelear of Rosedale Gardens. His resig- nation followed closely upon the heels .of that of Fred Bamsey, the other associate who, resigned - a week ago because he was moving into Detroit. No reasons for the resignation of Boudelear were given by De- fense authorities who stated that a new appointment would be, forthcoming very_ shortly. Livonia's Defense setup is un- dergoing a complete reorganiza tion under the direction of co- ordinator Jesse Zeigler who. stated Monday that evet~y possible step was going to be taken im- mediately to have Livonia in strict coordination with the state set up. Mr. Zeigler made it clear that all personalities.,, would be shelved and an immediate plan of action would be undertaken.

Commander Herbert Tucker of the Civilian Service Corps made a public appeal to all Livonia residents early this: week to do everything within their power to cooperate with school- children this Saturday when they make their canvas for scrap and sal- vage. Livonians joining in the na- tional drive will have their first opportunity to contribute their scrap to the hundreds of school children who will cover . the en- tire township this week end. The drive officially started last Monday morning when school children were given broadsides by the salvage " committee to take home to their parents and neigh- bors informing them of the date of the drive. Residents with tel- ephones were called by volun- teers and school teachers did ev- erything possible all week to cre- ate enthusiasm in the canvassers. Salvage officials made no esti- mates of the amount of scrap that they thought could be collected but they urged everyone to give everything that they possibly could. A full page advertisement elsewhere in this issue of the Li- vonian gives complete details of the collection. In case some residents are missed in he drive, a call . to either the township hall or to your nearest school will bring a collector to receive your scrap. Final plans for the drive were made at a general meeting last Friday night at the Livonia school where salvage officials and school teachers -mapped their plan of ac- tion and also discussed other de- fense problems. Remember next Saturday is the day have your scrap ready. Livonia Casts Only 771 Votes Out of a possible 5,200 votes only 771 were cast by Livonians at last Tuesday's primary election. Keeping pace with the rest of Michigan this area cast one of its lightest primary votes in years according to election officials The only contest of strictly local interest was the race be- tween John T. Howell of Coven- try Gardens, Clarence Reid and Clyde V. Fenner for the office of State Senator from this district. Livonia's own candidate - placed third in the township with the votes totaling as follows: Reid 162, Fenner 155 and Howell 138. Precinct number 2 in Rosedale Gardens registered the most votes, the voters there casting an even 200 ballots. Friends from Detroit and Wis- consin called on Mrs. Arthur Shoesmith last Tuesday.

Deer Hunters To Ask For Gas Providing There Is Rationing Late in Fall Anticipating that there might be gasoline rationing by the time the deer season opens, mem- bers of the Western Wayne Coun- ty Conservation commission re- quest that deer hunters be pro- vided with a sufficient supply of gas to get up, north for the an- nual deer hunt. The action was not taken from the standpoint of a sportsmen's organization, but because deer hunting this fall will help to overcome the meat shortage that the country faces. % "We only seek this favor be- cause of the fact that a success- ful deer hunting trip will provide thousands of families with a por- tion of their meat supply for the winter. If it was only for the ,sport one might get out of such a trip, we would not make such a request, but we believe that it will help the country in a time of emergency," stated President Brick Champe of the organization yes-uerday. It s possible that mere will be no gas rationing by the time the hunting season opens, but if it should be decided before the deer season to have gas rationing, then the club expects to make formal application for permits to use gas in going north to hunt.
