BEES TIME - The day's news came to the newspaper Wednesday afternoon when a swarm of bees took up temporary residence on the headlights of an Ann Arbor News truck. The sight attracted numerous spectators to the E. Washington Street side of The News' parking lot but all but one onlooker stayed a good distance away. The only person who got a close-up view was Fred Dittmer, a professional beekeeper, who was summoned to the scene to remove the bees. Dittmer, of 181 Scio Church Road, had little trouble coaxing the swarm into a hive and says he doesn't mind being stung a couple times a year. He says it helps with his arthritis.
