Humor the keynote for Harvey blood donors It's always great to see students participating in such a worthwhile cause and with such humor. A student blood donor clinic is very much different than the usual as donors are much younger. If they have passed their seventeenth year but have yet to reach their eighteenth birthday, the student requires a per- mission slip, signed by a parent. One incident that occured during a teen clinic was when one male student observed each step of the giving before deciding it was safe to donate. Another boy, not too certain of his own safety decided to let his girl- friend go through the procedure before doing so George Harvey Secondary School staged its annual Blood Donor Clinic last week for its third year. It proved very successful. 'Mtrr1_tlettrtet1trer.
