Because of an editing error, the first name of a source in "Bar-hopping party bus not hopping yet; ridership low" was not included. The name should have read Justin Utt, Pratt junior.
Because of a design error, the story "Costs high for snow" left out words when the story continued from page 1 to page 9. The story should have read "Green said the excess money the department had spent so far on winter weather was manageable now, but he hoped no more major storms would arrive."

Hallmark gives to Arts School for department chair search
Tray Sifers, Kansas City, Kan., freshman, purchased a Valentine's Day present for his girlfriend at Flowerama, 1700 W. 23 St., with the help of Lori Simmons, Flowerama employee.
The School of Fine Arts design department will receive $500,000 from Hallmark Card Inc. over the next three years, in part to assist in the search for a new department chair.
The grant money will provide the new chair with a budget to boost technology within the department, said Vickie Hamilton-Smith, the school's director of communications.
The money also will help revive The Arts, a program that puts students in contact with non-profit clients to gain real-world experience. Budget cuts in the 2002 fiscal year forced the program to stop operations last summer.
Since 1989 the department has hosted the "Hallmark Symposium Series," which features designers and artists from around the country.

Sunnyside Avenue will close for updates to cooling towers
Traffic on Sunnyside Avenue by Haworth Hall will be restricted today so crews can work on cooling towers from the roof of Haworth.
The road will be blocked in front of Haworth from 7 a.m.to 9 a.m., when one lane will be open for both directions of traffic until 5 p.m. Contractors will control traffic while only one lane is open. Parking stalls near the loading dock will be blocked until 5 p.m.
Lieutenant Schuyler Bailey, University of Kansas Public Safety Office, said the restricted streets would be well-marked for students to see. He said to take 18th street to get around the traffic.
The cooling tower work will improve energy efficiency throughout campus.

Film by associate professor shows in new movie festival
The South is coming to Columbia, Mo.
Associate professor Kevin Willmott's faux documentary C.S.A.: The Confederate States of America will be shown Sunday during the True/False Film Festival in Columbia, Mo.
The festival will be the first of its kind in Columbia.
The documentary-style film, which hypothesizes what America might be like if the South had won the Civil War, will play at the Blue Note Theatre.
Willmott's film gained famed film maker Spike Lee, director of Do the Right Thing, as an executive producer during its run at January's Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.
The film's reception at the festival gained the interest of distributors from the Independent Film Channel. The company bought distribution rights to the movie and plans to show it in theaters around the country soon.

STATE
Bill to unify state liquor laws fails because of split support
TOPEKA — Senators defeated a bill to make the state's Liquor Control Act uniform yesterday, one day after stripping it of provisions allowing Sunday liquor sales and increasing taxes on alcohol.
But they also ensured that the issue remains alive.
The Senate voted 24-16 against giving the measure final passage and sending it to the House — after giving the measure first-round approval Wednesday night.
Later, senators voted 18-15 to revive the measure and place it back on the chamber's debate calendar, where it will remain until leaders decide to bring it up again.
A big sticking point in the legislation is Sunday sales, an issue that initially prompted the bill. Efforts to attach a tax increase to Sunday sales caused a split among supporters, some of whom say they can't vote for Sunday sales with a tax increase, and others who say they won't vote for it without one.
Leader Anthony Hensley (D-Topeka). "There is a group of senators that wants Sunday sales, but they want quid pro quo on a tax increase. We're a long way away from having a compromise on this issue."
"Now it's all mired in whether we increase the tax," said Senate Minority
Hensley said he supports giving local communities the option to have Sunday sales.
A Wyandotte County district judge ruled in March 2003 that the state's Liquor Control Act was non-uniform, meaning its provisions do not apply equally to all cities. That ruling was spurred by a November 2002 vote in Wyandotte County in which 60 percent favored Sunday sales.
