Students Raise $1,800 in War Stamps, Bonds Spurred by competition between the various houses, the February I war stamp drive reached surprising j heights. Harw«x d, under house ! chairman Claire Kieinschmit, rock- eted into the lead with a total of $1,168.3? worth of bonds. Thus ! the college total was boosted to over $ 1 ,vStX), counted for the three- i week period. An intensive drive was launched in November, with John Tollefson | and Betty McComh heading the arrangement committees. Last year's plan of having the various [houses rotate supervision of the .grill booth was revived In addi- lion, sorority memfvrs sold Kinds individually. Two ASTP students were bond winners under the plan jol drawings from a pool of war stamps purchased in the grill. I John Tollefson stated more than 'adequately the purpose and neces- sity of fully cooperating with this [patriotic drive. “Victory is in sight for the Allies, but that is no ex- cuse for any American citizen to [stop buying war bonds and stamps 'Now more than ever we need all [of the available money that can be 'collected to aid in the early down- fall of the Axis tyrants. j It is with this tliought in mind that the Student Giuncil is start- ling its annual stamp and bond drive which must be supported by every student at Ripon college. [Die army men are purchasing hinds every month and will even be willing to buy more for the as- surance of a quicker and a speedier ending to the struggle. All Ripon- ites must back this drive to the ut- most, and with the support of the jttudent body I am certain that Ri- pon college will be able to stand jysidc the other educational insti- tutions in saying that we, too, have done our part to free t he world from the aggressions and ItmCUies which arc running ranv. pant over the earth. We will and fvc must win this war as’ soon as »ssihlc. “Upon the success of this drive Juy depend the life of a brother, father, or sweetheart. Indeed, the urgency of -this drive is apparent a i» also the importance of asking r-ich one to forgo a secondary want the outstanding issue.” WAR COfNClI.: Standing, left to right—Bilk Hooper, Mary Ellen Vci»k« Liseita Roluier, Mary Dunn. l.ni» Krinlr- inan, Harriet Keichpaw, Dean Johnston, lairrainc JohiiMon, Gerald Mirkhnl .

Bock Named War Board Coordinator IbrYearsWnrk Red Cross Blood Bank On Campus Coming from Milwaukee, Wis., the Red Cross mobile unit was in Ripon on Feb. 11 and in May to conduct its blood bank collection. During the February collection, the quota was very hard to reach, be- cause of the widespread flu epi- demic throughout Wisconsin. How- ever, the ASTP men stationed at Ripon did a great deal toward rais- ing and completing their quota. The mobile unit was in the Un- ion from 10 o'clock until 4 o'clock on Kith days. Coach Carl Dochl- ing was head of the executive com- mittee, Prof. Boody, publicity; Miss Margaret Cunniggim, recep- tion, and Major T. R. Barncr han- dled all registrations of the ASTP. Although the turnout for the third quarter bltxxl Kink was much smaller, the quota was helped con- siderably by the small number of students on the campus at that time. Virginia Rock was selected by the Student Giuncil in late Janu- ary to lead the activities of the War Grnncil as chief coordinator. Six other students were named committee chairmen to work with her, and Mr. Anthony Cascino, instructor in economics, was ap- pointed faculty adviser. The chairmen of the commit- tees and the group tlicy have led arc as follows: Red Cross, Betty Roycc; war bonds and stamps, Ruth Ferdinandscn; salvage, Jack Horak; publicity, BarKtra Wheel- er; service flag, Claire Kieinschmit; student relations, Marie Farrelly. During the year, girls rolled band- ages for the Red Cross in the seminar room of the library on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons and Wednesday nights. Special Thursday night program of rec- ords were arranged during the third quarter by the student rela- tions committee. A. A. U. W.
