Kennell, director of laboratories for the Department. The file was begun only two weeks ago, but al- ready ‘many Juneau residents have stopped in to have their blood types taken and placed on record in case of emergency. | Purpose of the file is to have |available immediately a list of Jun- eau residents and their blood types in case transfusions are necessary {during a war emergency. Blood typing is a somewhat lengthy pro- cess in the labdratory, and the {bullding up of as complete a file as possible may be of inestimable value in case of an emergency. Of Value To All The file will be of value to all Juneau residents, both in the event they themselves may need transfu- sions or may be needed as donors to others. Many lives may be saved by the speed made possible in giving trans- fusions if blood is already typed and on record. Because human Ylood falls into four different cat- egories and all these categories are not compatible, it is necessary to type the blood of the donor and re- ceiver before a transfusion may be given. This lengthy process will be eliminated by the file. Everyone Eligible All Juneau residents are eligible | to have their blood types filed. All| ‘hey need to. do is drop into the laboratories of the Terriforial De- partment of Health in the Terri- torial Building between the hours of 9:30 to 10:30 a. m. and 1 to 2 p. m. daily. If they desire to make appointments before coming in, ‘hey may telephone 466. The tak- ‘ng of a sample of blood, however, is a matter of only a few moments and those being typed seldom need to wait. Each person typed will be given a | 2ard showing his name, address and | Jlood type, which he should carry| with him - at all times. Then in case of an accident in which he! may need a transfusion, a great! deal of time will be saved in giv-| ing the transfusion. ——e—— W. S. PEKOVICH RETURNS FROM TRIP TO STATES W. 8.
