Explanation

The Glen Rose Nine arrival description (Figure 175) says: all aircraft landing north proceed to CURLE INT and expect vectors to the final approach course. The 010 degree heading from CURLE applies to non-turbojets when DFW is landing south, and the speed notes on Figure 174 (210 or 250 KIAS) apply to turbojets at DELMO and FEVER, not at CURLE.
