Mon. - Sat. Correction In the July 21 edition of the Oregon Daily Emerald, it was incorrectly reported that the deadline for submitting written arguments for and against a ballot measure allowing rezon ing of land for recroa tion/natural resource use was Aug. 30. The actual deadline is Sept. 30. The arguments may be used in the city's voter's pamphlet for the Nov. H general election. The story also misspelled the name of Abe Parkas, the city’s development director, and identified him as a member of the Riverfront Research Park Commission. Parkas and Dan Williams, University vice presi dent for administration, advise the commission, but are not members. The Emerald apologizes for any inconvenience or confusion that may have resulted from these errors.
