Mason County may cut the Red Cross Bloodmobile program due to debts of 1345 against the local chapter and a stalled 4800 fund drive. Only 34 pints were donated when the Bloodmobile, supported by the Point Pleasant Lions Club, sought 97 pints, with Hale Blessing and James Craddock contributing. County leaders, including Mrs. Savanna Upton and Joe Jordan, led the Precinct meeting as coordinators discussed funding and donor shortages.
