Correction
In a Page 1 story in Friday's Kansan, remarks attributed to Chancellor Gene A. Budig were incorrect. He does support lengthening to the school year. Remarks attributed to Judith Ramaley, executive vice chancellor, could have been misinterpreted. She said, "The number of days we're considering here would not produce a significant difference. But we can accommodate the guidelines."
Kansan, a quote was misattributed.
Dan Neuenwander, superintendent for
Lawrence public schools, said, "A lot of people are panicking and saying that we won't be able to operate.
That's not true."
In a Page 3 story in Monday's Kansan, the dates of preparation sessions for the Associated Students of Kansas Lobby Day were reported incorrectly. The dates of the sessions are Feb. 15 and Feb. 18.

French honor Snoopy
The Associated Press
PARIS — The French honored Snoopy yesterday saying that happiness is a warm puppy — even one that's 40 years old.
The beguiling beagle, who appears in Charles Schulz's comic strip "Peanuts," was honored with a blockbuster retrospective worthy of the World War I flying ace, bird-lover and faithful friend to that round-headed kid.
Schulz, by the way, also was honored. He was named Commander of Arts and Letters, one of France's
highest awards for excellence in the arts.
Schulz, beaming but appearing slightly embarrassed by the attention, said that during Snoopy's war years when he battled the Red Baron, Snoopy once explained how he learned to speak French.
"He said he had a small tourist phrase book, but he told me you only really need to know one word, and that is," 'Merci,' " Schulz said in English.

LIED CENTER: KU officials will meet Monday with five contractors to discuss construction bids for Lied Center, said Allen Wiechert, director of facilities planning.
The bids received by the University exceeded the $13.1 million budget for the center. Wiechcid said.
Wiechert would not reveal specific information about the bids.
He said the bid problems were unexpected.
In Monday's meeting, KU officials and the contractors will discuss why bids were over budget, Wiechert said.
Ground-breaking ceremonies scheduled for Friday at the center's site near 15th and Iowa streets were told of old because of the bid difficulties.
Wiechert said he could not specul- late about how the project might progress until after Monday's meeting.
ARCHITECTURE PROPOSAL: Several students in the School of Architecture and Urban Design will present a proposal for a comprehensive convention center in downtown Kansas City, Mo., on Feb. 1 at Bartle Hall.
The proposal, MainLink, includes a study of how to link downtown Kansas City and the Crown Center convention hotel area by installing a light rail transit system.
Max Lucas, dean of engineering, said the exercise was a learning process that addressed problems associated with urban design. He said the problem involved looking at the development of urban areas such as Kansas City.
The project is led by Glen LeRoy, associate professor of architecture and urban design.
The fifth-year students developed the design last semester. The presentation includes several drawings and plans in addition to a video.
Lucas said these would be shown at other times for various organizations.
The proposal will not be used, but will be considered by professionals working to link the city's convention areas.
"These projects are used to stimulate public interest," Lucas said. "These are only examples of what can be done."
