FOR THE RECORD

In a story published Sunday on medications that have sound-alike or look-alike names, which often lead to risky mix-ups, it was erroneously printed that Lanoxin had been renamed. It is Levoxine that has been renamed Levoxyl.

In a story in Tuesday's paper about a new book on U.S. Communist Party ties to Moscow, The Associated Press reported erroneously that Alger Hiss was convicted of spying.

Hiss was accused before the House Committee on Un-American Activities in 1948 of helping Whittaker Chambers transmit classified State Department documents to the Soviet Union.

In 1950, he was convicted of two counts of perjury for lying to a federal grand jury about his association with Chambers.
