Corrections

NATIONAL

An article on Wednesday about the abuse prevention policies of the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops misstated the extent to which the Archdiocese of Philadelphia responded to accusations of abuse by priests. The archdiocese gave its review board some information about 10 of 37 cases recently cited by a Philadelphia grand jury; not all cases were withheld from the board.

NEW YORK

An article on Wednesday in some editions about a confrontation between two women at Trader Joe’s on the Upper West Side misstated the professional background of one of them, Marcella Caprario, who was later cleared of assault and harassment charges stemming from the altercation. Ms. Caprario is a professional singer, not an amateur, and she teaches English as a Second Language to adults; she is not an elementary school teacher.



The Nocturnalist column on Thursday, about the lack of exciting parties the week following the Tony Awards, misspelled the brand of candles that scented the air at a post-Tony party on Sunday night. It is Diptyque, not Dyptique.

BUSINESS DAY

An article on Thursday about the success of American retailers among young Europeans gave an incorrect middle initial for a retail analyst from BMO Capital Markets who commented on the trend. He is John D. Morris, not John M. The error also occurred in an article on May 6 about the dismissal of Gap’s design chief.

THE ARTS

A theater review on Thursday about Series B of the Ensemble Studio Theater’s one-act play marathon misspelled the surname of the actor who plays Al in “Two From the Line.” He is Eddie Boroevich, not Boreovich.



Because of an editing error, an article on Thursday about the New York Public Library’s acquisition of the archive of Timothy Leary misstated the amount the library paid the Leary estate for the collection. It was $900,000, not “$900,00.”



A Critic’s Notebook article on Wednesday about art house film screens in New York, including the screening rooms at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, misstated the academy’s location. It is on Lafayette Avenue, not Lafayette Street.

OBITUARIES

An obituary on Sunday about John R. Alison, a World War II fighter pilot, referred incorrectly to the start of his military service. He enlisted in the Army Air Corps in 1936; he did not enlist in the Army Air Forces, which was not established until 1941 and included the Army Air Corps.
