aid sought
on homes
Irving residents' plea
for appraisals denied
By Stacey Freedenthal
Mid-Cities Bureau of The Dallas Morning News
IRVING - For four years, Nick
Harris has waited for Irving and
D/FW Airport officials to reach a
truce about the airport's proposed
$3.5 billion expansion.
He's tired of waiting.
Tuesday, he and two other Irving
residents took matters into their
own hands. They went to the Dal-
las/Fort Worth International Air-
port board meeting and asked for
help.
They want the airport to move
forward with its plans to buy homes
in the Highlands neighborhood,
even though the city and airport
are still locked in negotiations.
The airport has promised to buy
hundreds of homes in Irving, in-
cluding the Highlands' 110 houses,
to make way for expansion. But the
homes cannot be purchased until
the expansion project receives fed-
eral approval, airport officials have
said.
Mr. Harris, Kevin Reagan and
Larry Causey, who started the High-
lands Homeowners Association last
month, weren't asking the airport
to buy the houses yet. They said
they wanted a few homes appraised
so residents can know what to ex-
pect.
The board's answer, for now, was
no. Board members said they
wanted to act in concert with the
city, not with individuals.
"We want to be friends with the
city, and we want to be your
friends," said board Chairman Wil-
liam Cooper. "It's in our best inter-
est to work with the city. Go back to
the city and ask them to work with
us."
The board will take up the resi-
dents' request again at its March 3
meeting, Mr. Cooper said.
The airport announced in 1988
that it wants to build two new run-
ways, parking lots and terminals.
Officials with Irving, Grapevine
and Euless have vigorously opposed
the expansion, saying the new run-
ways would bring more noise and
safety concerns and would force
residents to flee.
Airport officials have said the
airport cannot buy affected homes
until its final environmental im-
pact statement is approved, clearing
the way for officials to seek federal

But Irving, Grapevine and Euless
have promised to challenge the re-
port in court.
Mr. Harris said he had worried
that city officials would be angered
that theresidents went directly to

But City Council member John
Medaille, who heads the airport liai-
son committee, said the residents'
actions didn't bother him.
''They're certainly free to ad-
dress and petition the board," Mr.
Medaille said. "And if the airport

Joy Aylor to kill
Mrs. Gailiunas, who was dating Mrs.
Aylor's husband.
State District Judge Pat
McDowell ruled that jurors could
hear Mr. Hopper's statements to po-
lice, despite defense objections that
they were improperly obtained.
When arrested in December
1988, Mr. Hopper told police that he
had been paid $1,500 to kill Mrs.
Gailiunas and had broken into her
home to carry out the plan. But he
said he had been scared out of itcases generally begins increasing in
the spring, when people start spend-
ing more time outdoors, and contin-
ues at a high level through the sum-
mer.
"Nobody likes to have to be in this
situation," said Mike Darrouzet, as-
sistant executive officer of the Dallas
County Medical Society. "But we are
dealing with it. We have met several
times, and nobody has ever called
for disbanding it."
The system was formed Aug. 5.
Previously, most trauma care had
been provided by Parkland Memo-
rial Hospital, Baylor University Medi-
cal Center and Methodist Medical
Center.
As the incidence of shootings,
stabbings and car accidents in-
creased, the number of trauma casessometimes threatened to overwhelm
the emergency rooms at the three
hospitals. Now, five other hospitals
serve as backups under the system:
Presbyterian Hospital of Dallas, St.
Paul Medical Center, Humana Hospi-
tal Medical City Dallas, RHD Memo-
rial Medical Center and Doctors Hos-
pital.
When the network was formed,
officials described it as one of the
more unusual approaches to trauma
care in the United States.
The system was nearly put into ef-
fect several times since August - in-
cluding New Year's Eve, said Dr. Ron
Jones, chief of surgery at Baylor and
chairman of the committee that de-
veloped the interim trauma plan.
The hospitals may try out the sys-
tem on a busy night to see how itworks, rather than wait until all
their emergency room beds are
filled, Dr. Jones said.
"I'd like to get the system ac-
tivated sometime before a crisis oc-
curs," he said.
Dr. Jones said he expects the in-
terim trauma system to remain in
place for at least another year. That
might not be so bad, he and others
said, because experience with the in-
terim plan will probably be applica-
ble to the long-term plan.
"What we may be looking at is a
trauma system without walls where
20 or 30 hospitals make up the system
and are capable of treating trauma
daily or accepting trauma cases from
the major centers," Mr. Darrouzet
said.aped statement played in court
and had contracted the job to a man
named "Chip."
Lt. McGowan testified that he
confronted Mr. Hopper the next
February with a picture of "Chip"
obtained by detectives. Earlier that
day, Mr. Hopper had failed a police
lie-detector test.
"I said, 'I want Joy Aylor, and I
want you to testify against Joy
Aylor,' " the officer said.
"He said, 'Can I go back and
think about it?' And I said, 'Andy, I
want it now.'"
At that point, Lt. McGowan said,the confession began. The investi-
gator testified that he and Mr.
Hopper remained cordial.
Mr. Hopper's benign smile at
that testimony was replaced by a
downcast scowl as the videotape
was played. His mother, comforted
by his father, sniffled quietly in the
front row of the courtroom.
On tape, Mr. Hopper gave an 11-
minute account of how he bought
some flowers, posed as a floral de-
liveryman, then forced his way into
the house and bedroom at gunpoint.

"I worry when six months into
the plan we haven't tested the sys-
tem," said John Carver, executive di-
rector of Methodist Medical Center.
"I think we are ready. But I worry
that we may be fooled into thinking
everything is fine."
With that in mind, a committee of
doctors, hospital executives and
other health officials was formed in
November to develop a long-term
trauma plan. The committee expects
to complete its work in May.
Because a long-term plan would
take time to finance and put into
place, the short-term plan will al-
most certainly contend with this sea-
