Blood Curdling Yell Sounds Forth From P.B.H. to Set Dates for Drive

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Blood!" screamed to whistles and the fifes of the warriors in Vachel Lindsay's "Congo" only a couple of decades ago, and the dread cry was raised again last night in Phillips Brooks House by President Charles Lipton '48.

Lipton set the opening day for the P.B.H. two-day hunting season on College corpuscles as Monday, November 24, realizing that University Hall discipline would oblige most students to be back in Cambridge from the Yale game.

With the subsidence of mass football fever symptoms on the Monday and Tuesday after the final grid tilt, Lipton and his aid, Jay L. Fialkow '48, both agreed that November 24 was the optimum day for the inauguration of the annual P.B.H. blood drive.

Enlistment in Dining Halls

From 11 o'clock to 5 o'clock on both dates, the bloodletting will be held in the usual efficient and painless fashion at Brooks House, with Cambridge Red Cross Workers standing by with sponges, doughnuts and coffee.

After announcing the sing-up sheets would be available all this week in all dining halls, Fialkow provided a priority table of local organization which would be asked to put an artery to the wheel.
