Journalists Go To Chicago Meeting Highlighting the journalistic year for The Lantern staff were two trips to seminars and conventions, one to Great Bend and the other to Chicago. Seven Lantern and Grizzly staff members traveled by school van to Chicago to the national convention of the Associated Collegiate Press in October where they attended numerous specialized sessions for col- legiate journalists. In September, eight journalists attended an over- night campout in Great Bend sponsored by the Kan- sas Association of Community College Publications Advisers. Several sessions on newspaper and year- book were conducted throughout the two day meet- ing. The Lantern was notified at the beginning of the fall term that several staff members had earned high honors in the Kansas contest sponsored last spring by the Kansas Association. The newspaper has tradi- tionally placed high in the state contest.

The drill team changed its name from Pomettes to Honeybears which was the original name of the team several years ago. The Honeybears not only enter- tained at half time at all the games, but they also performed skits at the pep rallies on campus. The women attended a training camp last summer at Ottawa where they distinguished themselves by winning the sweepstakes trophy for their performances.
