Police looking
beneath rubble
for storm victims
Associated Press
TOMBALL — Authorities were
searching for bodies Thursday in a
tornado-ravaged mobile home park
while owners of hundreds of air
planes damaged by the same twisters
expected losses well into the millions
of dollars.
At least two deaths were blamed
on the tornadoes, which hit Harris
County about 30 miles northwest of
Houston Wednesday afternoon. An
other 44 people were injured, some
of them critically.
“Right now we’re just looking for
bodies under the debris, then we can
bring in heavy equipment to start re
moving some of this,” Harris County
Constable Dick Moore said after sur
veying damage at the Boudreaux
Gardens mobile home park. “This is
the worst I’ve seen in 25 years here.”
Only three of the estimated 40
mobile homes in the park remained
standing Thursday, and each of
them was severely damaged.
An 81-year-old woman, identified
as Barbara Wilkerson, was killed
when the storm struck the park.
A Houston Lighting & Power Co.
maintenance worker, Timothy
Sparks, 27, also was killed when his
truck overturned, authorities said.
At the adjacent Hooks Memorial
Airfield, hundreds of airplanes were
ripped from their moorings or
blown from hangars.
A half-dozen small planes and an
old DC-3 were blown hundreds of
yards into a lake.
Wayne Aaron, an insurance ad
juster investigating the wreckage,
said damage easily could run into
the millions of dollars.
Civil Air Patrol crews went
through wrecked planes to discon
nect emergency locater transmitters,
which automatically send out radio
signals when airplanes crash. The
false signals would confuse radio op
erators in the event of a genuine
plane crash, officials said.
Up to 50,000 people were without
power at the height of the storm, but
Houston Lighting & Power officials
said only about 10,000 outages re
mained by midday Thursday.
In Tomball, authorities said about
90 percent of the houses had sus
tained some damage.
Spokeswoman Audrey Schwart-
ing said ten to 15 people were taken
to Cypress-Fairbanks Medical Cen
ter near Houston and two were ad
mitted in stable condition.
Wilma Jackson, director of ad-
minstrative services at Tomball
Community hospital, said 17 people
were taken to the hospital for inju
ries. Four of the injured were ad
mitted, two of them in critical condi
tion.
Spokeswoman Susan Bailey said
another 17 people were taken to
Northwest Medical Center in Hous
ton for treatment of injuries when
they were hit by flying debris. One
of patients — a 17-year-old boy who
suffered head injuries — was taken
by helicopter to Houston’s Hermann
Hospital, where he was listed in se
rious condition.

TEXARKANA — Gov. Mark
White’s letter to state agency direc
tors urging them to find ways to
hold down spending is too little, too
late, former Gov. Bdl Clements said
Thursday.
Rather, he said, White should call
a special session of the Legislature to
deal with revenue threats brought
on by declining oil prices.
“That letter is a day late and a dol
lar short,” Clements said. “He’s lock
ing the barn door after the horse is
gone.”

tour through East Texas, Clements

Woman gets 25 years for food stamp fraud >7
Associated Press
DALLAS — A defense attorney
says an appeal is planned in the case
of a mother of three sentenced to 25
years and one day in prison for
cheating the state out of $115 in
food stamps.
On Wednesday, a state district
court jury found Alfredia Dicker-
son, of Dallas, guilty of welfare
fraud.
Dickerson faced a minimum 25-
year prison sentence because she was
tried as a habitual offender. She has
been convicted five times and sent to
prison twice for welfare fraud, theft
by check and burglary, officials said.
Defense attorney John Stauffer
said he would appeal the conviction
because the jury was all white. Dick
erson, who is black, was not tried by
a jury of her peers, he contended.
In a confession taken by her wel
fare worker, Dickerson said she re
ported her income at less than she
actually was making as a nurse’s aide
in June 1983 because “at the time,
the job was only part-time and I
didn’t know where I would be work
ing next.”
