CORRECTION/CLARIFICATION: ***************************************************************** The editorial Tuesday on conserving crabs in the Chesapeake Bay described "buster crabs" (which are growing new carapaces), thus pushing off the old shells) as female crabs bursting their aprons with eggs. Wrong. Female crabs showing eggs are "sooks," or "sponge crabs." Correction published Thursday, January 25, 1996 on page A12 of THE VIRGINIAN-PILOT. ***************************************************************** CHESAPEAKE BAY BLUE CRAB VOTE FOR CONSERVATION
