The original force of gardai first marched into Dublin Castle in 1922, not 1927, as stated in a picture caption in yesterday's editions.

A report on the national athletics league finals in yesterday's Sport supplement stated incorrectly that Clonliffe and DMP had been relegated from the men's division A. The two clubs will still compete in the division next year. In the women's event both DSD and Finn Valley were also reported as having been relegated. Both clubs also retain their division A status.
