DALLAS — A New York univer

wife who have a baby, 9-months old,
that prosecutors say was sold have'
volunteered to testify next week in a
Dallas court hearing on the case, an
attorney said Wednesday.
The couple is not charged with
any crime. But another couple in
Dallas and a Dallas attorney, along
with his wife, face felony indictments
in connection with the alleged sale of
Rachel Marie Hagge of Grand Prai

Robert Cox, a lawyer who was ap

the child, who had been missing
since June, said the New York cou
ple will appear at a hearing in state
District Court here Oct. 3.
The hearing is the latest chapter
in an alleged cross-country baby sale,
officials say.
Prosecutors say a Dallas couple
obtained the child from her mother
for adoption, and sold the infant to a
Dallas attorney, who in turn sold the
baby to the New York couple.

The first multi-specialty medical
center will open in College Station
upon completion of the Scott 8c
White Clinic in 1986, Donald W.
Nelson, public affairs director for
the clinic, said Tuesday.
The groundbreaking ceremony
for the 46,900 square foot clinic
building that took place Tuesday
was the first step in constructing the
multi-specialty facility.

He added that the clinic will work
on an outpatient basis, with utiliza

more care is required.
Dr. William E. Ward, associate
dean of the Texas A&M College of
Medicine, said that while the Scott 8c
White clinics have been very success
ful elsewhere, the benefits the local
clinic offers the College Station com
munity is limited.
“I don’t see it as having any bene
fits over any other health care orga
nization in town,” Ward said. “If you
have trouble getting into some phy
sician’s office, you might have a little
less trouble because its going to pro

Authorities had not known where
the baby was since Hagge signed a
“relinquishment of rights” to her
daughter for adoption.
Prosecutors say Hagge gave the
baby to the Blantons, and they sold
the child for at least $ 1,200 to Kings
ley.
Assistant District Attorney Gary
Arey said Kingsley sold the baby for
$ 14,000 to the Dauler-Phinneys.
But one source in the case, who
asked not to be identified, said the
Dauler-Phinneys contend they
thought they were paying legal fees
and expenses, not purchasing a
child.
While the clinic is not due to be
completed until July of 1986, Nelson
said an interim clinic, at 2402 Broad
moor, was opened Monday.
Currently the interim clinic has
one family practitioner and one pe
diatrician, Nelson said.
Although the planned clinic will
be College Station’s first multi-spe
cialty facility, a quick glance through

The clinic is a satellite of the Scott
8c White Hospital in T emple, where
some A&M medical students fulfill
their residency requirements, Ward
said.
He added that although the clinic
is a satellite of the Temple hospital,
it does not have the classification of a
teaching hospital and would not con
tribute to the University program in
that respect.
“All residencies must be done at
teaching hospitals," Ward said.
Nelson, however, sees the possibil
ity of setting up teaching programs
at the clinic.
“I would say there is a possibility

Judge Craig Penfold’s court hear
ing Tuesday was an effort to locate
the baby. He had threatened to jail
the Blantons unless they revealed
the baby’s whereabouts.
They initially maintained they
had given the child back to her

Arey said that in the Tuesday

AUSTIN — The Lower Colorado
River Authority intends to hire an
outside investigator to check allega
tions of wrongdoing by staff mem
bers in the use of house trailers and
a farmhouse, possibly including par
ties with prostitutes.
LCRA board member John Scan-
lan said the investigator will study
the use of three trailers rented by
the river authority in 1983 and 1984,
and a renovated farmhouse at the
Fayette Power Project near La
Grange.
The board authorized the hiring
of an independent investigator at a
closed-door session last week. Scan-
lan was appointed to oversee the in
vestigation along with LCRA general
counseljohn Bagalay.
The trailers, located southwest of
Austin, were rented by the authority
for $4,000 a month from the Morri-
son-Knudsen Co., whose subsidiary
has a contract with the LCRA to op
erate the Powell Bend mine in Bas
trop County. The firm also has done
engineering work for the river au
thority on the Cummins Creek mine.
The trailers were intended for
overnight stays by Morrison-Knud-
sen employees working in Austin.
Sources reported that LCRA em
ployees attended parties in the trail
ers. Some board members ques
tioned whether prostitutes were
present on some occasions.
LCRA staff officials have denied
any wrongdoing by the staff. The
trailers are no longer rented by the
river authority, the officials said.
Board members also have ques
tioned whether LCRA employees
and contractors used the farmhouse
for parties. The farmhouse property
