The workers felt the main reason the number of donors was that high was the 108 people that gave blood for thefirst time at the Goderich clinic. Joan Marchello, secretary of the Ontario Division for Blood Donor Recruiting for the Red Cross, said the majority of the new donors were students at Goderich District Collegiate Institute. The clinic was held at GDCI and Mar- " chello said 94 teachers and students took time after classes to give blood. She said the response was about the best the Red 'Cross has ever had from the school. The last clinic held at GDCI was in November of 1977 and 287 donors came out. A clinic held at North -Street- ---United Church. in-the'.spring had a poor turnout of students and Marchello said the Red Cross felt that was because many students have to catch buses home from school and couldn't get to the North Street clinic and still catch their bus. She said the'lresponse was very gratifying for the Red Cross and came at' a time when the organization needed it. She said supplies of blood were low across Canada due to outbreaks of colds and flu and because" of the polio scare that swept the nation in the summer. She explained that anyone who had received a vacinne against polio or tetnus couldn't gave blood for up to three weeks. She said the polio clinics held across the country caused blood donations to dwindle for '-up to a month.
