Aggies challenged
to give more blood
By JAMES M. LOVE
Of The Battalion Staff
To bleed or not to bleed, that is
the question the Wadley Blood Cen
ter is asking Aggies this week.
The Aggie Blood Committee, a
cooperation between service frater
nities Alpha Phi Omega and Omega
Phi Alpha, Student Government and
the blood center, is encouraging stu
dents to donate blood during this
week’s drive.
Students can donate today
through Friday from 10 a.m. to 6
p.m. at the Academic Plaza, Sbisa,
and by the Blocker Building; 10 a.m.
to 8 p.m. at the Commons Lobby;
and 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. at the Medical
Sciences Library.
Mark Longworth, Aggie Blood
Committee chairman, says the group
expects to receive about 2,000 pints
of blood during the drive.
“Last year, we pulled about 1,900
pints, and that was after many peo
ple had just been immunized for the
measles and were not allowed to do
nate,” he says. “We’re expecting a
much bigger turnout this year.”
Texas A&M once again has been
challenged by the University of Ar
kansas to see which can get more stu
dents to donate blood. A&M has not
won the Southwest Conference
blood-drive competition in the last
five years.
“The University of North Texas
collected over 2,700 pints, and we
collected only about 1,600,” Long-
worth says. “They have about half
the student body we do at A&M,
too.”
“Last year, we lost to Arkansas by
only seven pints of blood. We’re
doing pretty bad. We can do better
than this.”
The entire donation process takes
about 30 minutes, and the actual
draw time is about five minutes. The
process includes a mini-physical with
cholesterol count, HIV test and he
patitis check.
Donators receive a free T-shirt
and coupons from a local restaurant.
Blood collected by the center will
be serviced and tested in Dallas. The
blood then is distributed to major
hospitals in the area.
One pint of blood will help ap
proximately three people after it is
separated into red cells, plasma and
platelets.
Each unit of blood donated by
A&M students earns the Aggie
Blood Club a credit, which is guar
anteed to be replaced by Wadley if
any A&M student or former student
needs blood.
The Wadley Blood Center has
been coming to A&M since 1959,
and has collected more than 62,000
pints of blood from participants at
the University.

proper storage of in-use utensils and in
accessible toilet and handwashing facili
ties (major violation). It was a regularly
scheduled inspection.
SCORED BETWEEN 94 AND 90:
Pavilion Snack Bar of Texas A&M
Department of Food Services. Score -91.

tected outer openings and presence of
vermin (major violation). It was a regu
larly scheduled inspection.
David Jefferson, a registered sanitar
ian at the department, said restaurants
with scores of 95 or above generally have
excellent operations and facilities. He
said restaurants with scores in the 70s or
low 80s usually have serious violations in
the health report.
Scores can be misleading, Jefferson
said, because restaurants can get the
same score by having several minor vio
lations or a few major violations. He said
the minor violations can be corrected
during the inspection.
