Religious Parents Veto Transfusion-Blood Eating Chicago, April 19—hP)—A crit ically ill week old girl last night was given a blood transfusion which her parents opposed as “breaking the Lord’s command.” The state obtained a court or der clearing the legal way for the transfusion and hurried the baby to a hospital for the transfusion. The infant, Cheryl Lynn Labrenz, is suffering from an RH blood factor condition which Dr. Herman N. Bundesen, president of the Chi cago Board of Health, said could cause her death “within hours” if not corrected. The baby was given two ounces of blood in the first transfusion and doctors said her response would not be known for several hours. Her parents, Darrel, 25, and his wife, Rhoda, 20, refused to the last to give their consent. Describing themselves as Jehovah’s Witnesses, the two object to “blood eating” on religious grounds. In family court today, Edwin T. ’Murals (Continued from Page 3) were unable to muster but two tal lies off Mailhos, B FA Downs A Infantry B FA edged out A Infantry 8-7, to hand the Infantry their second consecutive loss. A walk, an error, and three base bingles gave the artillerymen a five xmn lead in the first inning. The Infantry netted two runs in the first frame and five in the second but their rally in the final inning failed to overcome their three run gift to the Artillery in the second. C AF Wins C AF stormed to a 10-6 win over E Infantry and C FA racked up a 4-3 win over B CAC. Breen, assistant state’s attorney, turned to the father and asked him to reconsider his stand. “No, it’s out of my hands,” the young father replied. Then Breen put the; same ques tion to Mi'S. Labrenz. “We refused blood transfusions because we would be breaking the Lord’s command,” she said. “If we break it it will destroy not Contributions (Continued from Page 1) The Exchange Store SHEAFFERS m Sheaffer’sTM has just arrived.

Dunne that “the state’s rights in this particular case, in saving the life of a child, transcend the par ents’ rights.” Judge Dunne agreed and appoint ed Col. Harry Hill, chief probation officer of the court, as the child’s guardian. A guardian, Hill gave his consent for the transfusion and the baby was taken to Michael Reese Hospital. The blood condition results from a conflict of RH factors that de stroy the red blood cells. Trans fusions, doctors say, are the only means for correcting the condition. Doctors and city authorities had attempted unsuccessfully for several days to get the parents to consent to the transfusion. The parents base their objections on several Bible, passages, one of which is from chapter nine, verses four of Genesis, reading: “But the flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.” They consider blood received ip transfusions as eating of blood. ’51 Campus Chest Benefit Show Set For Guion Friday The Hockaday Glee Club and the Singing Cadets of Aggieland will combine their talent at 7:30 Friday night on the stage of Guion Hall in a show for the benefit of the 1951 Campus Chest.
