Frank W. Hubert, special assistant to the chancellor at Texas A&M, and Allison Utter- back, the Easter Seal Poster Child, will flip the switch to light the tree. The tree will then be lit every night through the Christ mas season. Also participating in the program are Hal Ferguson, a coach at A&M Consolidated; Merrill Green, a coach at Bryan High School; College Station and Bryan Independent School District choirs; and Rev. Bob Walter of A&M United Method ist Church will be the master of ceremonies. The tree was donated by the Texas Forest Service, whose headquarters is at Texas A&M. The Alphi Phi Omega service fraternity will collect contribu tions on campus in the Memorial Student Center beginning Nov. 15. The City of College Station has offered to put the decora tions on the tree and set up an electricity pole for the lights, McCullough said. Part of the donations will go toward the building of a new re habilitation center that will be near St. Joseph Hospital in Bryan. The new center will cost about $1.8 million, McCullough said, and they still need $500,000. Local residents already have donated $6,000 to the project and $5,000 of that amount came from one family to sponsor a star that is to be placed at the top of the tree. The family has chal lenged other residents to outbid them for sponsorship. Anyone interested in spon soring a light on the tree should contact the rehabilitation center at 3300 E. 29th St. in Bryan, or go by the Alpha Phi Omega cubicle in the MSC.
