Original Toronto Star caption: Blood: Scarce and Vital, William Hillier of Etobicoke, who had made dozens of blood donations only to have his own heart surgery postponed because the blood bank was too low, looks at the blood depot in Toronto. Red Cross seeks 1,800 blood donors this week. Yesterday, 370 donors were expected at the three clinics, and 421 showed up.
