The Arizona Department of Transportation opened the final two miles of the Pima Freeway, between Scottsdale and Pima roads. The final section completes Loop 101, a 60-mile U-shaped route that begins at about 95th Avenue and Interstate 10 and ends at Frye Road in Chandler. Construction took nearly 15 years and cost about $1.25 billion. I The newest section is expected to handle approximately 80,000 vehicles a day. Valley has never waited' for roads to be built, and the freeway was no exception.

Jim Keeley, a broker with Colliers Classic who specializes in commercial real estate, points out that area around the Scottsdale Airpark filled out with offices and stores long before the Loop 101 went there. "By finishing the freeway, there will still be big ones coming," he said. Phoenix is moving with the population, focusing on luring major employers such as Marriott and the Mayo Hospital to the northeast so people can live and work in the same area, Richert said. "You'll see things begin to happen in five to 10 years," added. "We have to get rooftops and disposable income up there before anybody puts a mall up.

Still, each player had a shirt, hat, pants and trophy, all paid for with donations and profits from concessions.

At the center of the neighborhood, on the baseball diamond at Playa Margarita Park, Julie Madrid, 24, can be found tossing a ball in the air and tapping grounders to rows of girls waiting with their mitts. "Get in front of it," she'll say as the ball skips across the dust. Mares Garcia scoops up the ball, then takes her place in line with the others to continue the drill. It is after 5 p.m. and Serna, Garcia and Madrid are here, rather than at home.

The team is Guns and Roses; 8-to 12-year-old girls who have known one another since kindergarten. Serna depends on volunteers such as Garcia and Madrid. But extra time is scarce in the neighborhood where families work hard to survive. Serna's Cash community sports organization began developing in 1995.

Roeser Rd. Ave. Ave. Playa Margarita Park 35th 43rd Southern Ave. PHOENIX a Map Eric Arizona Republic, area Garcia draws an imaginary picture for the triangulated relationship of himself, Madrid and Serna.

"We're an arm, we're a leg." Garcia says. "He's the spine that holds us up. He's the brain, too." Serna attributes success to people like Phoenix attorney Ben Miranda, the group's biggest supporter. Miranda, 52, relates to Cash. He was a substitute teacher at Cash school when he was finishing law school.

Miranda grew up in the Marcos de Niza projects in a family of farm workers. When Cesar Chavez was alive he helped out with pro bono work, and today has a lot of clients in the area. "What's impressive about Isaac is that he's a no fanfare guy," Miranda says. "He is consistent, he keeps his commitments after years and years of doing this work What is even more impressive, Miranda says, is that Serna is all-inclusive. Some day those young girls kicking up dust on the diamond will be out in 1a world outside of Cash.

Playing sports teaches the girls how to handle defeat and victory. "They really don't have much," Serna says. So the organization and volunteers such as Garcia and Madrid provide the youths the intangible leadership and teamwork something they hope will stick with the youths of Cash; a shelter to be bigger than the stereotype that Serna, Garcia and Madrid have lived with. "If we don't give to them, we're going to be in a world of hurt in the future," he said. MURDER Conviction is in doubt From Page B1 In Krone's 1992 trial, no DNA evidence was presented.

That conviction was overturned because the Arizona Supreme Court ruled that a dental videotape was unfairly used to prosecute him. in his 1996 retrial, DNA evidence was presented, but it could not directly link Krone to the murder, Krone's attorneys said. But no evidence excluded him, either. Both Krone and Ancona, 36, had Type blood, which was all that could be scientifically determined. So jurors were left to decide Krone's guilt based on teeth marks on Ancona's throat and breast.

And jurors twice used those marks to convict Krone. Prosecutors in 1996 said Ancona was slain while her attacker was trying to kidnap her. She was stabbed twice in the back and four times in the neck with an 8-inch knife found recovered from a trash container near the bar. She had cuts in her vaginal area and bite marks on her neck and left breast. Dr.

Raymond Rawson, a forensic dentist from Nevada, was the prosecution's primary expert. He convinced jurors at both trials that Krone's teeth made the marks. After learning of the new DNA results, Rawson stands by his testimony. "The bite mark evidence was solid," he said last week. "The bite marks were just one piece of evidence er else the jury that is what convicted Instant experts with whatevconsidered, him." But jurors in both trials said that they based their decision to convict Krone on the bite marks.

"It was the best we had to go with," said Janet Olmstead, 65, of Mesa, who sat on the jury in Krone's 1996 trial. "It seemed that with the teeth marks being a match, it had to be Three forensic dentists testified on Krone's behalf in his 1996 trial. Dr. Norman Sperber said last week that prosecutor Noel Levy asked him to examine the bite marks by before Krone's first trial. He said he told the state that he thought someone other than Krone made the marks.

Sperber, who says only 10 percent to 15 percent of bites are worth testifying about, testified on Krone's behalf in 1996. "Skin is very distortable," Sperber said last week. "People who look at bite marks think the mark looks as the bite was administered, but a bite can change depending on how the skin is held." At least one juror in 1996 had the same question. "If a hand was grabbing the breast at the time of the bite, would it distort the alignment of the teeth marks?" the juror asked the judge in a note during deliberations. Another juror appeared frustrated with Rawson's testimony, according to a note given to McDougall.

"Dr. Rawson was allowed to lecture long I resent the treatment of Dr. Sperber," the juror wrote. "I feel that I as a juror am not getting fair testimony with such restrictions as are placed upon this witness." While jurors considered the DNA evidence extremely complicated, they could easily replicate the dental expert testimony. "We had a mold of the teeth and pictures of the bite marks," Olmstead said.

"We just matched them up." Judge uncertain Since the new DNA results were returned last week, police have taken teeth impressions from Phillips. But Krone attorney Chris Plourd says that matching teeth to the bite marks won't be easy. Police will have to examine all of Phillips' dental records to see how his teeth have changed. Phillips' prison sentence ends July 15. Although McDougall declined comment on the case last week, he said his view of the case remains the same as expressed in his 1996 verdict.

"This is one of those cases that will haunt me for the rest of my life," the judge wrote in 1996, "wondering whether I have done the right Channel 12 News reporter Lew Ruggiero contributed to this article..
