Since the Red Cross began to bank blood, thousands of gallons of red blood corpuscles have been thrown down the drain-only the blood plasma is used. Dr. Warren Cooksey, technical supervisor of Detroit's blood bank, thought there ought to be something these discarded red cells, which constitute 46% of the whole blood, would be good for. Last winter he began supplying Detroit hospitals with batches of specially processed red corpuscles for experimental transfusions (TIME, Feb. 15).

She worked as a commercial artist in Chicago, a public-school art supervisor in Amarillo, Tex. She calls Texas "the only place I ever felt really at home...
