Yesterday afternoon, the third year Vet Meds extended their generosity to the Clarks, through a $350 check. Seeking the best possible care for Jeffrey, the Clarks have ar ranged to take him to Fort Worth. The ambulance was to leave at 11 a. m. today on the 200 mile trip that will place Jeffrey under care of a heart specialist and pedia trician. “We want to express our deep appreciation to everybody that has helped us so freely,” Mrs. Clark said. “Not only to the Vet Meds, but also to the people who have brought food and offered to help in any way.” The Clarks live in College View Apartments, D-4-A. Vets Talk of Emergency Fund Seeing their chance to lend a helping hand in times when mem bers of their class need aid, the Vet Meds are talking now about forming an Emergency Aid Fund Organization, and are planning to discuss it at the next meeting of the American Veterinary Medicine Association. It would be the first such organi zation in the college, set up by members of the School of Veteri- naiy Medicine. Planners hope to include the entire Vet School. To raise money for the two con tributions up to now, the students sold blood for $20 a pint. Where they market blood at that price, members of the class don’t want to tell. “We have a contract, of sorts,” one member said, “and don’t want to let anybody else get a chance at it.” “It took quite a bit of doing to find the place. We first tried to sell it in Austin, Fort Worth and Dallas before we finally found it,”* the student said. Most places will pay about $10 a pint for blood, but I’d hesitate to say that Aggie blood is worth twice as much as other kinds, but it is just a good place, he said. OUCH!
