/etc/securetty file is used to restrict the terminals from where root
user can logon. You can restrict telnet from certain hosts/ips but not
a selected list/group of users really. IMHO the only way to do this is
to create a special default shell for each user (may be a shell
script) and then checking how the user is connecting and then may be
exec that shell with bash or ksh or csh or zsh.

Is it just for the sake of experiment or you really want to use
telnet. IF you want to use telnet, I would recommend running it on
some other port, rather than leaving it on the default port. This wont
make it more secure in any way but there would be less chances of
people knowing that the telnet service is running on the machine.

For restricting ssh access to certain user check the man pages for
AllowGroup parameter.
