CORRECTIONS

ILLUSTRATION: Graphic

Two MetroNews charts, one on school safety measures and the other

on child abuse, were switched Thursday and ran with the wrong

stories. Also, in the chart comparing reported and well-founded

cases of child abuse, the correct number of founded cases in Suffolk

in 1991-92 is 64.

The name of Mark Kumpf, senior animal control officer in Norfolk,

was spelled incorrectly in a Thursday story about an outbreak of

rabies among kittens in New Hampshire.

The number to call for information on Norfolk's Second Annual

Downtown Boo Bash is 623-1757. An incorrect phone number was listed

in the Compass community section. The Boo Bash begins today at

5:30.

Clarification

The Northampton County supervisors held public hearings on School

Board appointments, but the names of those eventually placed on the

board were not considered at those hearings. As stated in a story

Wednesday, the status of those on the eight-member board is

uncertain because the supervisors inadvertently failed to follow the

provisions of a 1987 state law requiring appointees to be considered

at a public hearing.
