Music teachers offer concert

Corrections
Shawna Forde, Don Jones and Ross Gillum are members of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps who are watching the U.S.-Canadian border this month. An article on Page A1 Sunday incorrectly said they belong to a different border-watching organization.
Former Brier Mayor Gary Starks was given glucose on three separate occasions when he suffered from severely low blood sugar. Brier police officer Eddie Thomas died after a struggle with Starks on Sept. 12. Starks’ wife had called 911 to report that her husband needed medical treatment for his diabetes. A story that appeared on page A1 Saturday misidentified the type of treatment Starks received from medical personnel during previous incidents.
