Schell Favored for Horticultural Society Post
A Wichita man, W. P. Schell, faces strong opposition from the State Horticultural Society but is favored by some members and the Kanes Patuney expedition head. Officials say Schell may be put in charge of the Hanes barticultura display, while critics argue he lacks necessary qualifications and voice concern over representation and funding for the project. Local committees and editors discuss appointment prospects and potential candidates amid debate over who should lead state horticultural efforts.
