( Wierd Science (PG13)3 ^The heat is on atSx Elmo's Fire ® ) FREE PASS By MARY EWING Reporter For most of us, the holiday season is the most joyous time of year. For others it is the most depressing. This is the message the Alpha Phi Omega service fraternity is spread; ing to the community to promote their pledge class food drive. The drive will be Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. in the Kroger and Safeway parking lots in College Station. “We play an active roll in a lot ol projects,” Escalante said. “We feel we are an asset to the community and we like to show it.” Bissonnette said the food drive is an ideal way for Greek organizations to show community activity. Sheryl Sutphen, a member of Zeta Tau Alpha sorority, said people think hunger is only in distant places and not in their own community. APO plans to collect through do nations enough canned food, fruit and bread to feed close to 250 needy families in the local area. “It’s important that Greek organi zations become involved in service projects like this one,” she said. With the help of the Brazos County Chapter of Red Cross, APO will deliver baskets containing food, a greetings card and a Bible donated bv the Gideon Society to the families Nov. 24. APO received its list of needy families from Red Cross. Red Cross works with the families constantly. “It’s overwhelming to see the needy people,” Stiteler said. “The project has great potential if we can get the entire community to participate,” said Curt Bissonnette, vice president of the APO pledge class and coordinator of the food drive. “One lady called Red Cross at Christmas time because she did not have anything for her kids and was going to commit suicide,” he said. Stiteler said some families get only $200 to $380 a month and pay an $80 utility bill. “We have notified the Corps of Cadets, fraternities, sororities, dorms and submitted announce ments to he read on K I AM radio to inform everyone else,” he said. Yori Escalante, the Corps’ public relations officer, said the Corps is collecting cash donations because it is difficult to collect canned food since the cadets live in dorms. Cook ing is not allowed in A&M dormito ries. Food stamps are distributed to many, and while some elderly peo ple get $10 per month for food, it takes $2 to get someone to take them to the grocery store, she said. Kathy Grant, assistant manager for Kroger in College Station, said Kroger gathers food and money to give to the needy every year. “Most people don't try to lend a hand ant! I think it’s unselfish lor the students to take the time and help," Grant said.
