Blood drives planned as disaster aid continues
Sandy Cross of Greater Kansas City says 14 people from Douglas County area were sent to the disaster zone before the storm and expect climbs to about 25 in coming days. Red Cross reports blood drives canceled by the storm have strained supplies for months. Lawrence hosts two drives with details for Baker University and First Christian Church, while state emergency agencies and utilities deploy aid. Kansas Adjutant General announces two Emergency Management Assistance Compact deployments to New York, adding to a seven person incident management team in Maryland, plus Westar crews aiding UGI Utilities in Wilkes Barre with 17 000 customers affected. KU extends East Coast scholarship deadline to Nov 8 for affected applicants.
