8A QTtir Attttteton 8taX Monday. Ja. 80, 19M Bull auction will feature sons of Lovana 475, a 16-pltis, and said that of the bull's five other offspring two also an rated among the top Angus bulls. "Testing shows that traits passed on from one generation to the next are moderately high," Deese said. "By selecting bulls with high performance you can expect calves with a lot of the same characteristics." Prime bulls are the most Important to Alabama since cattlemen primarily produce calves that usually are sold out of state to be fed to slaughter sixe.

The Auburn program involves testing privately owned bulls for 140 days on vital aspects such as dally weight gain, hip height and the amount of feed each eats to gain a pound. Bulls will be on exhibit at 9 a.m. Friday with the auction beginning at 1 p.m. "The Idea Is to find superior bulls that can be used by cattlemen to updgrade herd quality and Deese said. Lovana, a Black Angus butt whom Auburn animal scientists rate 16 on a scale of 1 to 17, broke records In 1982 when the Georgia farm for which he's named paid $320,000 for him.

The bull is now worth an estimated $1.4 million. Two of his sons have statistics as good as Lovana's, but Deese said he doesn't expect any records to be set at this year's sale. "Lovana was an exceptional bull," said Deese. "What happened In '82 was a once in a lifetime thing, but I wouldn't rule anything out." Deese rated one of Lovana's sons, Angus Acres Lovana AUBURN (AP) A bull auction Friday is expected to attract as many as 500 buyers from across the southeast to Auburn to see Limoulsin, Chlanina, Charolais and the sons of Lovana strut their stuff.

AABB accreditation follows on-site inspections by association representatives who observe medical, technical and administrative aspects of the transfusion service -More than 2,000 such services have been accredited by AABB in the United States.

Accreditation of a blood bank or transfusion service is voluntary. RMC's transfusion service is called on when a patient goes into surgery or comes into the emergency room in need of blood. The transfusion service matches donor blood received from the American Red Cross with the patient's blood, matching not only blood type but ensuring the lack of antibodies in the donor blood that could harm the patient. Finally the hospital lab mixes the patient and donor blood together to make sure there is no reaction. The AABB is the only national organization in the country devoted exclusively to blood banking and blood transfusion services.
