Wichita editor will address a conference
Don Granger, associate editor of the Wichita Eagle and Beacon, will address high school journalism students and teachers this Saturday at the William Allen White School of Journalism's 49th Annual High School Journalism Conference.
The conference, which will be attended by journalism students representing 35 Kansas high schools, will enable the students to meet the faculty of the School of Journalism and hear them speak.
Warren K. Agee, dean of the journalism school, will talk to interested high school seniors in the afternoon about career possibilities in the field of journalism.
The conference will offer a critique service in which high schools may submit their yearbooks and newspapers for evaluation.
Seniors get aid
Two KU seniors who plan electrical and petroleum engineering have been named recipients of the Texaco scholarships for the 1967-68 school year.
James M. Eller, Leavenworth, and Glenn J. Taliaferro, El Dorado, will study under the scholarships which are awarded on a yearly basis and are renewable.

Prof goes on a bee 'safari'
While many KU professors spent their summers in bookish research, Charles D. Michener went bee hunting in Africa for the entomology department.
His wife, Mary, and two children, Walter and Barbara, camped with him in the national parks of Kenya, Uganda and Tanzania.
"It may sound strange for a man to spend two months in the jungle," he said. "But when your interests are there, why not?"
The dearth of knowledge about African bees prompted his investigation, however.
Michener has a Guggenheim fellowship for the trip, and a National Science Foundation grant for the research.
His daily ritual was simple. Every morning he hunted bees with a butterfly net and had no protective clothing.
In London also
Not all of his time was spent in Africa. In August Michener was at the British Museum in London, preparing data for a series of articles, after assembling thousands of the buzzing creatures.
Michener, the Watkins professor of entomology, studied social levels of primitive bees. This study will be completed after the bees have been dissected.
He is experienced in this work. Before coming to KU last year, Michener was the curator of the American Museum of Natural History in New York.
"Our goal in Africa was to gather the best collection of bees in this hemisphere," he said. "I think we succeeded."
Now take the newest multi-sensory trip Walk to any soft-drink machine and have some Sprite.
It happens as soon as you pay your money and take your bottle. Suddenly, Sprite takes you, the hedonist, on your way to a sensually satisfying tactile-aural-palatable-optical-oral experience.
First, you observe the refreshing green bottle. A tempting sight. Then you reach forth and touch it. Very cool. Finally, you
unpack the cup. Now you're ready to drink in that delicious tartness --but wait! Before
regressing to the delightful infantile pleasure of taking your bottle, stop. And listen.
Because Sprite is so utterly noisy. Cascading in crescendos of effervescent flavor. Billowing with billions of eublient bubbles. And then sip. Gulp. Guzzle. Aaaaaaaaaa! Sprite. So tart and tingling o'er the taste buds. And voila! You have your multi-sensory experience.
But what about the olfactory factor, you ask? Well, what do you want for a dime--a five-sense soft drink?
