Description:	National Honor Society chairmembers explain th(purpose of the blood dnjheld throughout the.nositivelTOR EFFORTHow do you feel about the various restrictions on blooddonating-for example, if youve been out of the country?I think that its unfortunate that some restrictions exist, but it is necessary in orderto avoid an excess of lawsuits against the Red Cross, and in the end they arebeneficial.— President Matthew JohnsenSome bans on donating blood are absurd. As for out of country regulations, Ithink it is necessary since there are some countries that have high risks ofmalaria and other diseases. -- Vice President Sarah ShaI understand the restrictions about other countries - there may be an issue withdiseases and such — but not other restrictions. They are outdated.— Publicty Chair James Kouns>u did two blood drives - one for the Indiana Blood Center, oner the Red Cross. Which has a bigger impact, in your opinion?It is easier to get the blood to the Indiana Blood center and the blood stayslocal, but the blood for the Red Cross reaches actual areas of crisis. So I likedonating to Red Cross.-MJI liked the local impact of the Indiana Blood center, but I liked Red Cross betterbecause it extended to more people.-SSI liked the Indiana Blood Center more because the staff was generally nicer,they didnt have to restick the needle, and the red cross seemed morecorporate rather than a community service.-JKMUSICBloomington South Orchestra members differentiate between the bass, cello and violinCellos are onentire octovebelow violins,but ore higherthan the boss.— freshman Sam Norrell[The violin] is thesmallest of theinstruments andhas on E string,which is thehighest string.- sophomore Ashley KellarBass is playedsitting on a stool, isthe lowest of thethree instruments,and keeps thebeat.- junior Aoife ONeill
