Dallas Press Club honors
alumni with Katie awards
Four alumni last week won Katie awards, a prestigious media citation
given by The Press Club of Dallas.
Delia Jalomo and Darren Barbee of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram won
for best news graphic and best investigative reporting, respectively.
Jalomo also won for collaborating on a informational story.
Tom Fox and Dean Hollingsworth, from The Dallas Morning News, won
for photography and best portfolio on online illustrations, respectively.
The Katies are awarded annually at a banquet to honor excellence
in journalism and mass communications. Proceeds from the banquet
go to The Press Club of Dallas Foundation journalism and scholarship
program.

The Cornerstone cancels free lunches until spring
The Cornerstone’s free Monday lunch is canceled until spring
because of an increase in attendants.
Director Jim Reynolds said an increase from about 250 people a week
to 400 sapped funding that was budgeted for smaller crowds.
Next year’s budget has more funding for the lunches, he said.
Reynolds said the cancellation will free up funds for a pancake
breakfast 8 p.m. Dec. 7 at the student ministry.
The lunches, which participants call the UTA feeding frenzy, are
“a way to show God’s love in a practical way —
with no strings attached,” Reynolds said.
The lunches do not include a Bible study but include announcements
inviting students to participate in Lifegroups, small groups in
which people can explore spirituality and make friends in a safe
environment, he said.
Friday coffeehouse events, from 8 p.m. to midnight, will continue,
Reynolds said.

CORRECTIONS
The brief “Dallas Press Club honors alumni
with Katie awards” should have said that Tom Pennington, a
Fort Worth Star-Telegram photographer, and the Wichita Falls Times
Record News writer Michael Hines also won Katie awards from the
Press Club of Dallas. Star-Telegram writer Darren Barbee was a finalist
but did not win. The information was incorrect in a release from
the Public Affairs office.
