A slip of the tongue can be deadly fun. JEANNE PREJEAN (See Page

Dogs, Cats Fall VictimTo Coyotes
BY WILLIAM JAMES GERLICH Staff Writer
High-end real estate agents can be cutthroat to get a sale and
who wouldnt be if it meant getting a $50,000 pay-check? But
strangely enough, some of Dallas
leading agents act quite the opposite.
Cooperative yet com-petitive; never cutthroat, said Dave
Perry-Miller & Associates agent Bonnie B a u e r, a c o - f o u
n d e r of Dallas Pacesetters. Started by Bauer and Sue Krider of
Allie Beth Allman & Associates, the group of agents meets once
a month to discuss their multi-million-dollar homes for sale in the
Park Cities, Preston Hollow,
and North Oak Cliff.The Pacesetters limit
themselves to 30 high-end agents, and the cri-teria to get
initiated is not lax. Like rushing for a top sorority or
frater-nity, an agent interested i n b e c o m i n g p a r t o f
Pacesetters must be nom-inated and sponsored by a current member,
then must be voted on by the entire group. Members can lose their
Pacesetters status for missing too
many meetings.We started the group
about five years ago, and it has been a huge success, said
Bauer, a Highland Park resident. During each meeting, agents get a
couple of minutes to talk about proper-ties they have for sale, or
about clients they have that are looking to buy. Bauer keeps the
meetings structured, making sure

At least six pets have gone missing near Turtle CreekBY BRADFORD
PEARSONStaff Writer
Tiger the cat went miss-ing about three weeks ago. Elvis left
the building closer to six months ago. And the ducks in Turtle C re
e k ? T h e y ve b e e n declining for months.
Ask the neighbors on Golf Drive whats to blame for all the
animal disap-pearances, and they ll almost all have the same
answer: coyotes. One saw a coyote sunning itself in her backyard;
another came home to a missing cat and coyote droppings in her
yard.
At least five cats and one small dog have gone m i s s i n g f r
o m a o n e -square-block area along
Turtle Creek in the past six months, likely at the mouths of
coyotes who roam the creeks banks, neighbors said. Now, those same
neighbors are trying to do something about it.
Were spending money, making sure theyre prop-erly vaccinated,
yet it seems so counterintui-tive, said Ellen Turner. Were spending
money on making sure our pets are healthy, then in a matter of a
few minutes our pets are carried off and tortured and eaten
alive.
Turner has launched a change.org petition to have the city
remove all the coy-otes; as of Wednesday, it had 17 signatures.

John Poston, the head of the Rise Schools board of directors,
stepped to the podium. The audience had already heard more than an
hour of testimony regarding the benefits of expanding the Park
Cities YMCA, but Poston deliv-ered the starkest remark.
T h e o n l y w a y t h e Rise School survives is if we build a
new YMCA, he said at the April 10 University Park Planning and
Zoning Commission meeting. So Im for it.
An hour later, oppo-nents of the plan took the Rise Schools
inclusion to task. Normandy Avenue resident Jim Huth said there
were plenty of other areas that could accom-modate the school,
while Shenandoah Avenues Libby Norwood was con-cerned about
dedicating thousands of square feet to the program. The real
problem, according to neighbors, is the size.
T h e r e s a l i m i t e d amount of space, said Normandy
resident Nick Kuntz. The thought is that the [YMCA] is too big to
begin with, and adding anything to it is a ques-tion, whether its a
school or whatever kind of addi-tional activity or institu-tion.
Its an addition of any new thing to what is already crowded.
The Rise School sits at St. Lukes Episcopal Church on Royal
Lane, but its directors want to move it to an expanded YMCA. A
planned move to King of Glory Lutheran Church,

It was a big year for the Trusler-Seale Group. C o m i n g t o g
e t h e r a s a t e a m t h a t i n c l u d e s Karla and Alex
Trusler and Will Seale, joining Briggs Freeman Sothebys
International Realty and ultimately earning Top Producer status,
has made 2011 a busy but rewarding 12 months.
Its one of those circum-stances where 2 + 2 = 5, says Karla
Trusler, Senior Vice-President. Will, Alex and I partner together
very well because we have great synergy and we are so much alike.
We have com-mon relationships, and we are true partners on every
transaction.
Key to the success of this group is the belief that each member
brings to the table a high level of atten-tiveness to clients in
neigh-borhoods that include the Park Cities and vicinity, Bluffview
and Devonshire, Lakewood and the sur-rounding area.
Our market is a very spe-cific one, says Will Seale, Senior
Vice-President.
We have to know the n e i g h b o r h o o d s a t t h e block
level. We know that the block depths on one side of the street are
dif-ferent from the other. We know where the nearby schools carpool
line starts and ends and when reg-istration for school starts and
so on. That attention to detail is what continues to bring repeat
and refer-ral clients to the Trusler-Seale Group.
Weve never had a cli-ent that wasnt a friend t h a t d i d n t e
n d u p a fr iend, says Trusler. Buying a house is a finan-cial
transaction, but its also about where your children lay their heads
at night. That makes it a rela-tionship entirely based on trust,
and we take that trust very seriously.
For CEO Robbie Briggs, the professionalism of the Trusler-Seale
Group is evi-dent in every interaction. This group always shows
tremendous insight into their clients wants and needs. They are
tenacious about going the extra mile
to make sure their clients have the best buying or selling
experience.

CONNOLLY DID NOT DESERVE TO BE HONORED
O n A p r i l 2 6 , t h e Highland Park Alumni A s s o c i a t i
o n h o n o r e d former Superintendent J o h n C o n n o l l y f o
r Distinguished Service to the district.
We write to protest the
awarding of such an honor to such a man.
Winston Power, the superintendent imme-diately pr ior to John
Connolly, was also hon-ored for his distinguished service. He was
deserv-ing of the honor. In com-paring the two men, we are reminded
of Prince
Hamlet s comparison: That was to this, Hyperion to a satyr.
Connolly, through his words and actions, in our estimation, far
from doing distinguished service, did great damage to the district.
He brought great pain and harm to many of the districts employ-ees
especially its teach-ers. Many of the districts administrators
daily faced the dilemma of doing Connolly s bidding or risking
their jobs by fol-lowing their own judg-ment and consciences.
Connolly changed the climate of the district from one of warmth to
a climate of negativity and fear.
His admirers bragged of his ability to work a room. We guess he
could, given the right kind of audience. Well, Connolly may have
had people skills,
but he consistently demon-strated a lack of people val-ues where
district employ-ees were concerned.
We love the Highland Park Independent School District, and our
criticism is not aimed at the district itself. Neither do we attach
any blame to the Alumni Association members. They really had no way
of knowing of the extent of the harm Connolly did, but we do know,
and we feel compelled to protest.
We d o n t s p e a k i n the names of any other employees of
HPISD, but we know we speak on behalf of a great many. We invite
them all to speak out, but we understand their hesitancy. A strong
residue of fear remains, even after all these years.

OPEN SUNDAY 3-5
There are folks who think the Crystal Charity B a l l s T e n
Best Dressed
announcement recep -tion can be a stuffy occa-sion, where
teacups are held with little pinkies at 90-degree angles and
propriety rules as though the British royals were in attendance.
The March 27 presentation at Neiman Marcus Downtown proved that a
slip of the tongue can be deadly fun.
Before presenting the class of 2012 (Tricia Besing, N a n cy C a
r l s o n , N a n cy Carter, Ashley TripplehornHunt, Dee Dee Lee,
Lynn McBee, Pat McEvoy, Kim Miller, Pam Perella, Ellen Winspear,
and Hall-of-Famer Lana Andrews) and saying that the luncheon
fashions would be from the House of Lanvin, the very charming and
dapper Jim Gold Niemans president of specialty retail wel-comed the
group: Well, we know spring is in the air when we have our, uh ...
er ... Ten Breast ... Ten Best Dressed. The room exploded with
laughter.
NYES SPEECH KEEPS CROWD IN STITCHES
To accept an award is not the easiest thing to do, but doing it
with charm and laughter is a feat. Thats exactly what Erle Nye did
on March 27 when he received the Linz Award at the Hilton Anatole.
To a sold-out crowd, he said the Linz had pulled him back from the
cycle of the
Whos. When you retire, youre in first stage: Whos Who. In a
while, its whos that? A little later, who cares? I was right
between whos that and who cares. You pulled me back from that.
In typical Erle style, he added:
I know most of my [former colleagues] have heard me speak, and
yet they came here today any-way!
One of my heroes, Winston Churchill, once said, There was never
a bad short speech.
As Henry VII told his many wives, Dont worry, I wont keep you
too long.
SMART PHONES COULD BEON THE CHOPPING BLOCK
With a table of Dallas Christian School students in the back of
the Khmer Room at the Hilton Anatole on March 28 for the Elisa
Project, keynote speaker Brad Lamm was asked how to help young
people over-come the media in deal-ing with eating disorders.
Taking a deep breath, he said, Some of you are not going to like
what Im going to say. Get your kids a dumb phone. Remove some of
the digital crap.
While the vast majority of the audience responded with applause,
the stu-dents, who had been sell-ing raffle tickets earlier, put
down their smart phones and exchanged nervous looks.

immediately north of LBJ Freeway, fell through last year,
forcing the school to stay at the somewhat cramped confines of St.
Lukes, said head of school Kari Zerbe.
It currently serves 55 children in five class-rooms, with three
teachers per classroom, plus three therapists. The move to the YMCA
would allow the school to expand its offerings, Zerbe said, though
the exact nature of the expansion is not yet known; the existing
pre-school at the YMCA serves 25 students, said YMCA architect
Duncan Fulton.
The Rise School is dif-ferent than most pre-
schools, though, because of the community it serves. For every
10 students, seven have developmen-tal disabilities, Zerbe said.
That ratio which is used by Rise Schools across the country would
not change, she said.
As for Postons com-ments regarding the sur-vival of the school,
Zerbe was similarly frank.
We have been strug-gling for the past several years with the
economy taking a turn, she said. We were struggling from month to
month, but the
economy is getting bet-ter, and were feeling it. Wed love to
work with the YMCA, just to have that partnership to support.
The Rise School has also pledged to help fund the project, which
is estimated to cost up to $20 mil-lion. YMCA officials have not
released the financial agreement.
In April, Poston, who has a special-needs son, urged the
commissioners to approve the plan.
If it is built, the vision is to use it as a template for other
Rise Schools around the country at other YMCAs, he said. So I hope
that neighbors will work in favor and help the lives of
special-needs chil-dren.

The motto of Highland Pa r k H i g h S c h o o l i s Enter to
learn. Go forth to serve. Last week, the Distinguished Alumni Award
went to one gradu-ate who served his alma mater, another who served
his community, and a third who served his country.
Hundreds of people came to Dallas Country Club on April 26 to
honor former Highland Park swim coach Mike Sorrells, volunteer
extraordinaire Pierce Allman, and Army veteran Don Bowman.
Sorrells, a member of the Class of 1959, spent more than 30
years coaching Scots swimmers and div-ers. He said it was
gratify-ing to see so many of them at the ceremony.
The one message I tried to get them to learn, he said, was that
winning is important, or we wouldnt keep score. But if you give the
best you could, you could not lose.
Sorrells is credited as being the driving force to separate the
state swim meet into 5A and 4A-and-under divisions, giving more
athletes the chance to compete at the high-est level. His girls and
boys teams both won state titles in 2000, and the girls repeated in
2001. Thats when he was voted the Texas Interscholastic S w i m m i
n g C o a c h e s Associations Coach of the Year. On top of that,
five of his swimmers became Olympians.
T h i s h a s b e e n a n award-winning spring for Sorrells. In
March, he was inducted into the Texas Swimming & Diving Hall of
Fame alongside two of his Highland Park swim-mers, Olympic gold
med-alists Bruce Hayes and Shaun Jordan.
I wo re s h o r t s a n d T-shirts to a job that I never
considered work, Sorrells said. I got to work with truly
outstand-ing kids who wanted to be better. And for that, I get an
award. Hard to under-stand, isnt it? I really dont know why Im up
here. But Im glad I am.
Allman, a member of the Class of 1950, first made his mark in
radio. He was the first on-site broadcaster to report the
assassination of John F. Kennedy from the Texas School Book
Depository. Consequently,
his voice guides visitors through an audio tour of the Sixth
Floor Museum at Dealey Plaza.
But Allman was honored more for his volunteerism than his
career. He was a founder of the Park Cities Historic and
Preservation Society, and his interest in preserving local his-tory
led to the creation of La Fiesta de Las Seis Banderas, a debutante
ball that raises money for Park Cities charities.
Involvement comes about if you feel pas-sionately that something
needs to be done, Allman said in one of the videos produced for the
din-ner by David Leeson and Kim Ritzenthaler. It also comes about
when you realize that there is a problem, and if youre not willing
to take it on, who is?
At the age of 80, Allman who was nominated for the Distinguished
Alumni Award by Juli Harrison and Susan Holman, two agents at his
wifes real estate company, Allie Beth Allman & Associates is
spearheading the effort to mark the town of Highland Parks
centennial in 2014.
Never underestimate the power of concerned cit izens, he told
the crowd. Just remember, the Ark was built by volun-teers;
professionals built the Titanic.
Bowman, a member of the Class of 1953, gradu-ated from West
Point four years later. Commissioned as a second lieutenant, he
would spend more than 20 years in the Army, earn-ing the Purple
Heart, the Silver Star, the Legion of Merit, and about all the
badges you can get, as his brother, Jack, put it in one of the
videos. But Don was quick to deflect the spot-light.
The awards and deco-
rations, Ive never got-ten one when I was all by myself, he
said. There was always somebody else there somebody sup-porting,
somebody behind, somebody in front of, somebody beside me.
Bowman told the crowd that the Highland Park High School motto
is the ethos of a life well-lived. He recalled attending a reunion
of his former troops and marveling at how much they had achieved.
When he asked them what they attributed their success to, they
said, You taught us how to do it right, to do it right the first
time, and to keep on doing
it right. And thats, Enter to learn. Go forth to serve.
Thank you, Highland Park. You have no idea how that motto has
dif-fused throughout the United States.

THE COMEDIC STYLINGS OF JIM HITZELBERGER
When introducing 20 past honorees, Hitzelberger realized he had
skipped Park Cities People co-founder Kirk Dooley. That was
notintentional, he said, although Im still amazed you won this.
Hitzelberger fondly recalled his rst semester at Highland Park
High School. After six weeks, he had four Fs and a D. When the
school called Hitzelbergers father to report these grades, his dad
said, Apparently, hes spending too much time on one class.
He used to get this gig as host by elding a call from the Alumni
Association on a Monday or a Tuesday, when he would be asked, What
are you doing Thursday night? Invariably, his answer would be
nothing. But a couple of years ago, he had to start calling his
wife to ask, Honey, what am I doing Thursday night? Invariably, her
answer would be Who is this?
He introduced a few of his fellow school boardmembers and said
their presence was evidence of two things: Theyre giving out
complimentary dinners at the event, and the other people on stage
need to speak a little slower tonight.
He read Superintendent John Connollys biography, then said,
Theres a note here: Jim, please do notmention 97 bond election.
When discussing Connollys struggles with enrollment, he said, He
rejected a citizens proposal to build a fthelementary
schoolunderneath Caruth Park.
He said Aramark onceapproached Connolly, requesting a meeting to
discuss taking over cafeteria operations from the districts army of
PTA volunteers. He told them politely I think it was politely that
the only thing he could expect out of that meeting was that the PTA
would make a counteroff er to take over Aramark.
He told Mike Sorrells, I was glad to hear that youve come out of
retirement, and youve come back to coach kids and get back in the
swimming world. And then I realized youre doing it at Rockwall. I
dont know if you remember this or not, but Highland Park footballs
last district loss was to Rockwall. So I guess the good news is we
saved a little money on that Mike Sorrells Natatorium over at
Highland Park.
Jim Hitzelberger, a member of the Class of 1974, is the vice
president of the Highland Park ISD Board of Trustees. Hes also a
funny guy, as evidenced by his work as host of the Alumni
Association awards dinner.

the chatty group doesnt go over their allotted time.
The meetings are often held in stunning estates, and one could
tell the agents were right at home during a recent meeting at an
opulent mansion in Highland Park. Lydia Player of Ebby Halliday
Realtors offered a tour
of the Harvard Avenue home, which was recently listed by John
Weber for $4.9 million. She said the Pacesetters typically meet in
each others listed homes so agents can view prospects for their
clients.
Ive got a hip-pocket in Highland Park, the Preston Hollow
resident told the group, using the term for a property that is not
yet listed on the MLS system. Player said that
is one of the advantages of being in the group, because members
can discuss up-and-coming properties before they make it onto the
market.
Dori Warner of David G r i f f i n & C o m p a n y Realtors,
one of the new-est Pacesetters, said she originally wanted to join
because of the groups ele-vated level of profession-alism, but
mostly because o f t h e b e n e f i t s s h e
receives when collaborat-ing with fellow agents.
I have found that since the market crashed, the agents still
standing and thriving are the ones that rely on each other, said
the Kessler Park resident, who was recruited to extend the groups
reach into North Oak Cliff. The quality of the agent has improved
as a result of the downturn. Weve become better as a result of
the
collaboration, despite the adversity we faced.
Warner said she has had many milestones during her career, but
becoming a part of such a vibrant net-working group was one of her
long-term goals.
Donna Trayler, another Ebby Halliday agent, is not a Pacesetter,
but she has been a member of a similar networking group called the
Masters for 15 years. She said it has led to
sales and connections that she would not have made
otherwise.
We have a very strong group of Realtors, Trayler said of the
Masters. "Its fascinating for me to be a part of the group because
I get so much out of it and can contribute to it as well. Its a
pretty prestigious thing. Once youre in, you never want to
leave.

[The] city of University Park MUST stop this by trapping all
coyotes or sim-ply killing them, the peti-tion reads. Regardless,
the neighborhood is not safe. First cats, then small dogs, then
what is next? Tragedy.
Charles Coopers cat d i s a p p e a r e d i n m i d -Ap r i l .
A n i n d o o r c a t , Tiger slipped through a door and out of the
yard. C o o p e r a n d h i s f a m -ily spent weeks looking for
Tiger, hanging fliers, climbing under houses, scouring the
neighbor-hood as late as 1 oclock in the morning each night. He
fears the worst, but he thinks University Park officials should do
some-thing before the problem spins out of control.
You gotta nip i t in the bud, he said. Once those guys set up a
den and start making babies, youre going to have a real problem on
your hands. If youre not going to do anything about it, theyre
going to work a certain area and keep growing.
The problem, city and state officials said, is that the plan the
neighbors suggest trapping the coyotes and releasing
them elsewhere isnt viable. Coyotes very rarely fall for traps,
said UP Police Chief Gary Adams, and, according to the DFW Wildlife
Coalition, coyote numbers actually swell when only a portion of the
population is removed from an area. City offi-cials will gladly
speak with neighbors about the issue, Adams said, and hes actively
seeking guidance from police chiefs around the country on the
subject.
One neighbor recently set a steel trap and actu-
a l l y c a u g h t a c o yo t e, Adams said, but the ani-mal
was found wandering with the trap around its leg. Police called a
coyote rescue group to come take the animal; it was presum-ably
euthanized, Adams said.
If anybody can give us some suggestions, were open to that, he
said. But
folks in the know tell us theyre just very difficult critters to
trap.
Part of whats driving the animals into the city is the rapid
urbanization of previously rural areas, according to Texas Parks
and Wildlife urban biolo-gist Brett Johnson. That, coupled with the
states recent drought, has sent coyotes along creek and stream
beds, where they can wander up to 16 miles in one night.
Johnson, while sympa-thetic to the neighbors, is
unconvinced by the call for trapping the coyotes.
The catch here is, is there really a problem? he said. Purely
seeing a coyote in and of itself doesnt constitute a prob-lem. If
theyre taking pets when people arent pres-ent, is that a coyote
issue or a pet-owner issue?
Johnson said pet own-
ers are taking an inherent risk in letting their small pets out
into the wild to begin with: vehicles, out-door diseases, owls. The
presence of coyotes just adds to that risk.
Cats and dogs, though, arent the only concern of the Golf Drive
residents. Twelve months ago, a duck laid 10 eggs in an iris bed in
Lydia Merediths back-yard. After a week of vaca-
tion, Meredith returned home to find only two eggs, no shells,
and no mother. A day later, the other two eggs were gone.
Another time, she woke up to the sounds of an animal screaming
and all the neighborhood dogs barking. The coyote had returned.
I understand the Park Cities have a policy of co-existing with
wildlife,
which is beautiful when it comes to our flowers and rabbits and
the squirrels, Meredith said. But she has lived in Canada, where
she learned that coyotes, when pressed, attack chil-dren. They are
not some-thing you want to co-exist with; they are truly a wild
animal who will go after food.
