A Sept. 14 article that mentioned investment banker Frank Quattrone, and a Sept. 16 clarification, should have specified that the people who purchased shares in initial public offerings from Credit Suisse First Boston were technology executives who had brokerage accounts there; most were not Quattrone's friends, and none was a CSFB co-worker.

· The Reliable Source column in the Sept. 15 Style section misidentified a man who was talking to Karen Hughes at an anniversary party for "The Chris Matthews Show." He was Newsweek political correspondent Howard Fineman, not Sidney Blumenthal.
· A Sept. 8 Business article incorrectly said that the U.S. government restricts U.S. airline flights into China. It is the Chinese government that restricts the flights.

CLARIFICATION
