DONORS SIGN UP WITH WSC

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

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.

"Confidential" Work Popular

Among the most popular jobs was "confidential" war work at the interceptor command headquarters of the First Corps Area. Women students attending the Summer School registered in large numbers for work as hospital orderlies.

A number of entertainers and hostesses for the USO and army camps signed up and everything from "classical dancing" to "imitating" was given as specialites. Upperclassmen registering today and Monday will find the War Service Committee questionnaire in their registration envelopes.
