KU photo contest winners chosen
Jugging of the Tenth Annual Kansas University Penguin Photography Competition, as the content wrapped in a two-day phototourism campaign
The conference, held in the Kansas Union, was sponsored by the photojournalism department of the School of Journalism. Included were lectures and discussions by professional photojournalists, such as Hugo Wessells, bureau manager for United Press International in Washington, D.C., and Jose More of the U.P.I. in Kansas City.
Wessels and More were the judges of the contest. Winners in nine categories were chosen, including the grand prize category, comprised of pictures judged to be the best in the show. There were 211 entries.
Wessells said he was impressed with the local talent. What's so hard about contests, he said, is not to discourage them.
"There's always a great number of photos that show you not what nothing," Wessels said. "Next year they will paint the buildings."
The winners in each category are: Jay Koehler, grand prize; Koelzer, news-feature; George Mellor, sports; Koelzer, abstract-experimental (black and white); Barbara O'Brien, picture story; Greg Ghedes, portrait-personality; James Carroll, back-and-white; Alan Bennett, abstract-experimental (color); Susan Makei Wirsalow, scenic-pictorial (color).
Mike Campbell, second place, grand prize; first place, scenic-pictorial.
George Millener, first place, sports.
Greg Hedges, first place, portrait-personality.
Jay Koezler, honorable mention, grand prize; first place, news-feature.
