No wonder so tnany of them want to be a board member. Maybe they should get their priorities straight and realize the kids and the schools come first, not their enjoyment. DONNA BRANNICK Costa Mesa + When I criticized the board a couple of years ago regarding another expensive conference they attended, Mac Bernd told me it was a cheap shot. I guess this time it is not so cheap, huh, Mac? KENTMOOJlE Corona del Mar + You people need to get a life. These guys are civil servants. They are dedicated public employees and servants. I have known Jim Ferryman for years and be is a tireless volunteer who works for the betterment of the community and the city in which he lives. If the poor guy spends some money when he goes to a conference_ more power to him. Give the people who represent the public and the citizens a break. They do have to spend some money to do their job. RICHARD TAYLOR Newport Beach -t-I can't see spending $10,000 on a conference that includes dinners, breakfasts, whatever that they spend up there at these conferences. As a parent at Costa Mesa High School, every time something is bro- ken or something happens to the school we wonder why it is not fixed right away because they always say, one, they don't have the man hours to fix it; two, they don't have the money to fix it; and three, we don't have a decision on what to do or how to fix it yet. In my mind, and I know that the school board puts in a lot of hours, teachers and students deserve to have rooms secured and better equipment. It takes too long in the schools to get things fixed because they always say they don't have the money. If we can find $10,000 to send board members to conferences, then we can find the money to repair our schools. The schools are always in need of repair.

By Michelle TerwUleger, Daily Pilot NEWPORT-MESA -School trustees said Wednesday they have mixed feelings about eliminating the district's instructional materials center and cutting elementary music and physical education in order to pay for a teacher raise. Michael Pine, chief financial officer for the district, presented a list of potential cuts to programs and person- nel that add up to $3.3 million in sav- ings. Teacher's union officials say that they need more than a 7% raise each of the next four years to get up to par with the rest of Orange County. A one-time 7 % raise would create a $3 million deficit for the district next year if no cuts are made. 'lhlstee Serene Stokes said she sup- ports elimination of the Sanborn Instructional Media Center, located at the district's offices on Baker Street. "I know how much the teachers like the instructional lab and media library, but in the last district I wa!i in they had to eliminate that many years ago.• She said she also thought the alter- native education program at the Monte Vista~g~ School could be moved to a different location to save money. Elementary music and physical edu· cation were among trustee Judy Fran- co's main budget con~ma. She said she agreed with trustee Ed Decker's comments at Tuesday's board meeting that the programs are an integral part of curriculum. Franco also had concerns with elim- inating the media center. •What do you do in terms of s~ool that don't have the ability of doing laminating?" Franco said. •A lot of bulletin board materials and things used in the classroom are created in that fadlity. • Board President Martha Fluor took issue with the entire budgeting process. •My belief is that we need to deal with this in a different manner," Fluor said.

Fluor recommends using zero:based budgeting to cause departments to jus- tify each of their expenses.

On a clear day, you can see f~rever, almost. Surely you can see Catalina, San Clemente and Santa Barbara islands, If your eyes can cut through the layer of smog-btown guck that sits in the middle of the ocean between the mainland and Catalina. The other day J was poking around the Castaways, checking up on Bob Henry Park and the new houses sprouting there. It occurred to me that, for such a lovely spot, it has certainly had a hard life. Sadly, the Castaways has been a place of shattered dreams and broken hearts, and even now makes many people very nervous. A fortune or two has been lost there, a policeman was mur- dered there, a hope of keeping it natural was dissolved there, a career ended there . James Irvine bought what we now know as the Castaways in 1864 to use as a landing for ships carrying cargo to and from the Irvine Ranch. The ubiquitous McFadden brothers operated a warehouse there until 1888. In 1933, the Castaways was the site of the Orange County Country Club, a rather.plain pip- rack affair with a dirt golf course. There is the possibility that what ~e know as the Castaways might possibly have become • known as Whorehouse Hlf!'lrhe ·county being arch-conservative even in those days, I suppose it would more likely have been called Mount Mona. That was the name of the lusty lady who operated Mona's Studio Club on the property in the late 1930s to the early 1940s. Out front, Mona's was your basic view restaurant. In the back rooms, however, there were games of chance and, way in the back. bedrooms where the weary could nap, or the more lecherous could pursue other avenues of stress relief. Mona's shuttered during the war and, in 1945, a fellow named Don Dickerman opened a restaurant called the Cast- aways. It thrived for a while, but began to sag with intense com- petition from places like Christ- ian's Hut in Balboa and the Hur- ley Bell in Corona del Mar. HYou could walk a goat through there at dinner time and nobody would care,• a local wag said. As luck would have it, the Castaways caught fire in 19?6 and burned to the ground. Then began decades of argu- ment over what to do with one of the most aesthetically delec- table pieces of property in the entire Irvine Co. portfolio. What would it be? A park? A housing developmentl Senior citizen housing? A marina? All of the above? None of the above? That l~t is what Jean Watt hoped it would be.

I \ By Michelle Terwilleger, Daily Pilot NEWPORT-MESA -After school district employees move from their 16th Street offices to the new administrative center at Baker and Be~ streets, senior citizens may become the new kids on the block. A consultant for tHe district sent letters earlier this month to five developers who specialize in assisted living homes for seniors. Newport Beach officials have told the district they would pre- fer to see the one-acre property zoned for senior housing, said Carolyn Stocker, the school dis- trict's director of business ser- vices and auxiliary operations. Stocker said she has already received a response b'om one Newport Beach developer and that all the other developers except one are located in Cali- fornia. · ! District staff members expect lo move to their new adminis- trative center this spring and after that, the district plans to sell the 16th Street. site, last appraised at $850,000. The city of Newport Beach at one time eyed the 16th Street property for a possible park, but· backed off because of the price. Supporters of the Environ- mental Nature Center next door have also expressed a desire to raise money to purchase the property so the educational nature habitat could expand. .. Sobriety checkpoint scheduled in Costa Mesa Friday night The Costa Mesa Police Depart- ment will set up a sobriety check- point from 9 p.m . Friday to 2 a.m . Saturday on Harbor Boulevard north of Wilson Street. The goal of the checkpoint is to educate motorists ol the dangers of driving while into~ated, and to create a heightened awareness of the police department's "zero tolerance" policy.

Chamber of Gommerce calls for ban on temp0racy floWer vendors ~- •Florists say out-of-towners contributed to wilting sales on Valentine's Day. By Susan Deeme~ Daijy Pilot COSTA M!sA -Some local florists say they had a blue Valen- tine'• Day this year. A symbolic funeral wreath - made up of unsold red roses fol- lowing the Valentine's Day holi- day -was placed at the podium for Tuesday night's City Council meeting by local florists who say an out-of-town flower vendor killed their holiday sales last week. "We often call this a funeral piece,• said Brian Harris who owns Prank's Plowers. "We are presenting it because we feel that fair play In Costa Mesa has died." Their losses -prompted the Costa Mesa Chamber of Com- merce to ask the city to restrict temporary permit holders from selling flowers during holiday seasons. · The'tempora.ry pennit is usual- ly issued for single agricultural products such as pumpkins .and Christmas trees. City officials believe this is the fint time it was issued fOf,_floWer sales~ Although flower vendor Brian Hurley signed an agreement with the city to sell roses only, he com- pounded the resentment. of those In the city after he was d ted numerous times by code enforce- ment officers for selling teddy bears and helium balloons, said City Manager Alan Roeder. Roeder said Hurley then claimed he was giving away those iteIJ1.S and only selling the roses. City officials then sent undercover code enforcement officiaJs to monitor his sales. Hur- ley was also cited moments after he set up a giganticinfiatable red Valentine. "I don't know how many cita- tions (the dty issued)," Roeder said. "But the code enforcement officer was back out again the next day because h~ (Hurley) was reinflating it." Hurley leased the parking lot at Newport Boulevard and 18th Street from the city's Redevelop- ment Agency for $1,000 for one Count the number of times you hear yourself say: ''I could get used to this!''

He also paid the city $25 each for both a temporary permit and a business llc:eme. City law requirel temporary stands, which more typically sell pumpkins and Chriltma.s trees, donate a portion. of their profits to a non-profit organization. Hurley gave $500 to the Boys and Girls Cub. Costa Mesa florist Jennifer Stockland says she can't compete with a vendor whose overhead is lower. She says Hurley's red and white tent facing Newport Boule- vani was a prime location. Stock- 1.anl:i says she lost 75% of her walk-in sales last week, merchan- dise that ultimately is thrown away. •Florists experience some real- ly mean times," Stockland told council membels. "We count on Valentine's Day to make up for this." The chamber is also suggesting the city invalidate the permits ~ without a refund to vendors who ' disobey the rules, The dty should I close down those operations 1 immedlately; the chamber's letter said. • City Councilwoman ~eather Somers agree<\ the temporary ' vendor~ have posect an unfair · advantage over loc4l flori.Sts. ' "It looks like we are going to ' have to clean up the wording of ' the ordinance to 'make sure it doesn't undercut our other busi- nesses here,• she said on Wednes- day. • . City Councilman Gary Mona- han felt bad for the florists, but says any new restrictions would ' have to take into consideration : that the city must derive some Income from its properties. Roeder said the dty is review- ing the chamber's suggestion, but ultimately a change in the law will be up to City Council members.

But I always forget and on the plane ride home kick myself for not p1cking up a loaf. So I wu elated when I went to the new Metro Pointe Shopping Center to see a movie recently, glanced over and saw Boudin San Frandsco Sourdough Bakery & Cafe.

The clam chowder in bread bowl ($3.85) was outstanding but a Utile I remem- bered that my e ditor , Anastacia, I ) I "' I '· ( I I\ I \ I I \\ skimpy. I was very impressed with the New Eng,land- style chowder: a loves bread and thought it was about time she helped me try spme of the goodies she reads about every week. We ventured out on a Friday about 12:30 p.m. and the comer restaurant was packed. Jockeying for a table was like finding a seat on a New York city subway, but we managed to slide in as a fami- ly was getting up to leave. The cafeteria-style restaurant's backdrop is what the place is known for: the sourdough bread. The dark, crusty loaves are stacked and presented hand- somely behind the order counter/kitchen area. And each tastes great, whether it's a round loaf, a baguette or a long, crunchy loaf. The bread is extremely sour, soft and airy in the middle; crunchy, crusty and shiny on the outside. (Don't try eating it in the car or you'll get crumbs every- where.) · The menu is limited but I expected that. I knew the bread was the main focus, and soon found out why. Boudin knows bow to do sourdough, but not too much else. We started off with the havarti cheese bread ($2.45), which was delicious but a definite artery- bardener. Saturated with melted havartl cheese, the sliced sour- dough was crusty and crunchy. We decided not to eat the whole two pieces, hoping to save our RUFFELL'S UPHOLSTERY INC. 1922~~156 thin, cream base with lots of tasty clams, potatoes, onion and a little salt and pepper. It comes in a hollowed-out round of sourdough, but someone didn't dig ours out far enough. We only got about a 112-inch of chowder - maybe a ladle full -and too much extra bread that· wasn't sal- vageable. . The vegetarian sandwich ($4 .85) was excellent.

The crust was soft and about an inch thick. The doughy bread was topped with a tiny layer of taste- lea tomato sauce and too much shredded cheese that wasn't totally melted. The most unap- pealing thing about the pizza was the orange coating of oil on top. One bite and it was all over. •tt's like the kind you get at the school cafeteria,• Anastacia said.

FEIRUARY 20. 1997 editorial Children shouldn't pay price for costly coriferences· T he irony. shouldn't be lost. l'wo months after school trustees and superintendent spent more than $10,000 on a conference in San Jose, Newport-Mesa's Chief Financial Offi- cer Mike Fine unveiled $3.3 million in proposed budget cuts to fund teachers' raises. So wh~ the party in December? The expense accounts for the Cali- fornia School Boa.rd Association con- ference in San Jose -attended by all seven trustees and Superintendent Mac Bernd -show, at best, insensi- tive district leadership. Newport Harbor recently traveled to Washington D.C. for the annual Mock United Nations summit, the students had to pay for their own meals, which meant a lot of fast food. of lack of money. To avoid fut:ure spending sprees on , trips, we'd encourage the board to: • Pay food expenses on a per diem basis -$40 per day. any trip within a 75-mile ra!iius of Newport-Mesa. Seems like a common sense item, ~ut in the past., trustees have charged taxpayers for hotel rooms in faraway Long Beach. • Pind hotels close enough to the convention site so always-expensive rent.al cars aren't needed. The potential cuts discussed at Tuesday's Board of Education meeting are pretty grim: dozens of layoffs, elim- ination of music and physical educa- tion programs, 10% across-the-board reductions for non-school facilities. The Newport-Mesa Eight were reimbursed for $17 breakfasts, $331 for rental cars (the convention was two blocks from their hotel) and a $300 dinner at Le Papillon, one of San Jose's finest French restaurants. By contrast, when freshmen at We're not suggesting the trustees live on Big Macs while traveling on school business, but just show a little common sense, discretion and leader- shi~, especially during a financially · tough time where class sizes can't be further reduced, school bathrooms can't be fixed and teachers can't get . the raises they deserve -all because • Send a maximum of three board mepibers on any one trip.

Now it needs to make sure dinners at expensive French restaurants, $17 breakfasts and Long Beach hotel rooms aren't picked up by the tax- payers. readers respond .. MONEY WELL SPENT? Readers debate whether it is worth $10,000 to send trustees to San Jose for a conference I suppose in some ways they think it is justified, but two years ago they cut out any kind of conferences that teachers could go to. The district used to pay for a one-day conference for a teacher to go to. For this $10,000 they could have sent 500 teachers to a con- ference and paid for their substi- tutes that would then impact 30 children as they go back to their classrooms with new learning. For these eight people to go to a conference and spend $10,000 is not justified at these times. I realize that when they cut the conference money it was when we had a bankruptcy, and then this year with the 20-1 classroom ratio costing us money, they can't seem to justify letting teachers go to a conference, but with that maybe they need to make some cutbacks too. JOAN DUNCAN Mariners Elementary kindergarten teacher Newport Beach I support spending the $10,000 by our Newport-Mesa trustees for attending the conference in San Jose. The greater the exposure our trustees have to other dis- tricts' educational policies and their results, the better. The daunting challenge of pro- viding all the district's students with the best education possible will not be served by discourag- ing our trustees from seeking help and ideas wherever they can find them. What we don't need are more nit-picking comments about the price of their dinners and break- fasts while attending such confer- ences. llAYWATSON Newport Beach I am against Newport Beach footing the bill for the San Jose conference. HELEN REYES Newport Beach You ask the question whether it is worth spending $10,000 when the reporter provides no information on the topics that were discussed, the length of the conference. How is it even possible to determine whether it makes sense for trustees to spend that kind of money? The items of interest listed relative to the expenses are so minor that I just think a reporter's time could be used in a much better fashion. There are probably dollars being wasted in this city far in excess of this $10,000 on a conference. Obvi- ously, there were sev- eral attendees and very likely, there were topics of value dis- cussed that the reporter doesn't even comment on. GRETCHEN VALENTINE Newport Beach It is absolutely out- rageous, especially when I have just been told that I have no more money in my budgetatschoolandl have to spend my own money now. Last year I spent more than $4,000 on my classroom so I think there could have been other ways that they could have cut costs at that convention, like shar- ing rooms, sharing rides and going to less expensive restau- rants. PEGGY ENGAJID Teacher within the district 1bis is an ongoing joke like most conferences are for bureau- crats who see an opportunity to get out and have a little fling at the taxpayer's expense. If they don't know enough to do their job in the first place, why are they there? It seems a little ridiculous to me that these people, who should be able to afford an entertain- ment lifestyle on their own, have to go to this extent in order to break the monotony of their daily existence. Thumbs dOW!l.., all the way. • ltALPH TOMLINSON Newport Beach It is just another reason that the number of trustees should be reduced. At least $10,000 might become $6,000 .. As far as I am concerned, not one of those people on the board at the presept time will ever get my vote or my wife's vote again: I think it is outrageous. ED STAPLETON Newport Beach It doesn't seem to me that there is a problem with spending $10,000 on the Newport-Mesa board members. I think you need to put it in context. In any busi- ness, there are conferences and these things do, in fact, aid peo- ple in making conta.cts that might help them to do their job better. I also think you need to figure out how much money is in the budget and what percentage of that amount that this represents. I assume that it is fairly minuscule. I don't think anyone, in Newport Beach anyway, is going to be offended by a $40 dinner. Sometimes you can't eat for less around here. I know they are in San Jose, but I think they are entitled to go to a fine restaurant from time to time . I undentand that expenses should be absorbed either by an employer whether it is a coxpo- ration or by the taxpayer. Maybe they didn't all have to go. I can't say. I think it a lot of hoopla over a not very important issue. I do think the public gets a lot of benefit out of these kind of events. GEORGE 1lJllNE.R Corona del Mar I am appalled that the district would spend $10,000. I cannot believe that. No. 1, if they had planned ahead, which they knew about this conference, the airfare should n6ver have been that much mon- ey. I figured around $100 since I am a travel agent and know about that. Also would these people have gone to that Le Papill.on restau- rant if they had to pay for that themselves? NANCY SCHNITGE.R Newport Beach No, I do not support the atten- dance of the Newport-Mesa board members to the California School Board Association confer- ence. I feel that is wasted money. I don't favor it at all. These people could most certainly read a transcript of the con- ference and take the information that they truly need if they are honestly devoted to the processes of good education. DEL KAHAN Newport Beach Most of these trustees must have been raised in New- port Beach with the spending habits of spoiled children. Only now they can do it to the taxpayer instead of to their par- ents. They should be called "Untrustees." DD.I.HODGES Costa Mesa I definitely think it is a waste of money. Considering the fact that my daughter doesn't have textbooks in her classroom, I think $10,000 is a lot to spend on a week trip. I have been to school board meet- ings and I must say that I am underwhelmed by their grasp of the actual work that they do. They have control over hun- dreds of millions of dollars worth of investments, cash, personnel · and I get the impression from watching them act that basically they are like the Orange County Board of Supervisors two years ago. They barely have any idea of what is going on. Yes, lt was a waste of money. BOB RASMICAN Costa Mesa I think it is outrageous. We have 10 children, they have all gone to private schools, yet as taxpayers we are paying for the public school system and to have that $10,000 is absolutely ridicu- ldus. CATIIAJUNE AGNEW Newport Beach I do support our school board members att,ending the confer- ence in San Jose. I would be quite concerned if they did not attend and missed out on valu- able information that would be gathered at such a conference. We elected these people to their positions in order to keep our school district running. Spending taxpayer dollars to fur- ther their knowledge and gather information is a necessary expense that will 'Ultimately bene-_ fit the children of the Newport- Mesa School District. LINDA YOUNG· Costa Mesa I think that it is a shame that ' your reporter didn't outline more ' of the details as to what the con- ference was and its value to the trustees. Second of all, d0-lsup- port the spending? The answer is definitely yes. GENE LYONS Corona de1 Mar I'm absolutely appalled that these people would spend some- body else's money without a thought. Didn't anyb:Q(ty call up , there in San Jose to find a Mar-. riott Courtyard for $49 a night instead of $100? When they are going to dinner can't they call around and see how much the prices are rather than spend $300 for dinner? I think $20 for a dinner is suffi- cient on somebody else's dime. $10 is more than enough for a breakfast for anyone on some- body else's dime. I think they could have gotten, even out of San Jose, a small van. rented a van together and drove into the conference. There are children in Orange County going hungry that need breakfast and lunch so they can study and become great people. PEGGY CAlHOUN Santa Ana Heights I think this is ridiculous. 1bis $1,768 by Ed Decker is just phe- nomenal. I think if they had to stand in front of an auditorium and answer for the $10,000 that they spent at this conference, I don't think they would list as much as they did -$161 for an airfare to San Jose. I think it is irresponsibility. If these people are put into a posi- tion of power, and then abuse this responsibility, I think they need to leave.

BOBSAVASKY Newport Beach I agree with the local florists. These local florists· have probably 'been paying higher fees arid taxes all year in Costa Mesa.

This project could earn it up to 80 acres of "mitigation cred- it," which will allow it to take an equal amount 9l wetlands elsewhere. Irvine Co. spokesman Larry Thomas said the company will probably get 80 acres of credit, though that's 1not yet set in stone. Local environmentalist Jack Skinner said he thinks that's more credit than the company deserves, but he also sees some benefits to the project. "It'll help much more from the removing nutrients stand- point than it will from the silta- tion standpoint," he said. •And aspects of it will certainly bene- fit the entire marsh. The ques- ~ tion is: Are they significant enough to offset the destruction ·of wetlands elsewhere?" Bob Caustin, founder of the · Newport Beach group Defend the Bay, stressed the need to continuously monitor what the water district is doing. "We are in favor of restor- ing and maintaining marsh and wetlands for the water- fowl ," said Caustin, who helped fight the district's plan to dump treated sewage water into the·bay. "We question the implementation as being accurate and correct and good compared to self-serving.• Project manager Ken Thompson, the water district's director of water quality, emphasized that there ls no connection between the marsh work and the district'• ongoiQg battle over diverting treated sewage water. "We try to find as many win- win opportunities as possible,• he said. "For us What it does is create a very high-quality butter zone between our facility and surrounding develop- ment.". The district will be supplying the water -rerouted creek water or treated sewage water -for the marsh. Thompson said using the treated sewage water in the marsh, which will stay in the ponds, won't affect the bay. HWe have a pennit to use the reclaimed water," he said. "It's very clear that any discharge to the bay would be subject to our other project.• Project consultant Rob Balen underlined the .project's possi- ble positive effects for some endangered and sensitive bird species: 'the least Bell's vireo, the California least tern, the great blue heron and others. Thomas said the marsh pro- ject will also contribute to the community. •It will create something very special for the community to have as an educational resource," he said. "People who are interested in watching birds and wildlife will be able to do that."

Even as the community debates the nuances of the wide- ly lauded new legislation, some say it is bad law to begin with. "Community notification is an overly simplistic response to a very 'complex problem," said Elizabeth Schroeder,· associate director of the Southern Califor- rua chapter of the American Civ- il Liberties Union. "It gives peo- ple a false sense of se<:Urity that their children are safe from molesters." Schroeder said the majority of child molestations are committed in the home by relatives or friends of the victims. She said Megan's Law might lead to vigilantism and •drive sex offenders under- ground." "Afraid of the repercussions of registering, offenders dorr't regis- ter, don't seek the treatment they need,'! she said. "It prevents peo- ple from rebuilding their lives and makes them forever pariahs, hop- ping from community to commu- nity and failing to stabilize their lives.

There's a small portion of these people that can be rehabilitated, and I think that by branding them that's not going to be able to hap- pen." But the law gives parents an edge in keeping their children safe from potential predators, she said. •As a parent it becomes my responsibility to take appropriate precautions," she said.

Tickets will go on sale-to the general public on . Tuesday, following a DaviS · Cup pres~ conference, in which event promoter Russ Cline and U.S. team captain Tom Gullikson will formi\lly announce members of the team. "We sold way more ~ck.ets than we thought we'd sell," said Stuart, who a~ed Davis Cup officials to give him a window of time to sell tickets in advance to his members, a request that was granted. The Palisades Oub has a membership base of aboqt 600, and Stuart said he expected to sell 300 to 400 - tickets. "Russ Cline said he'd never seen or heard of anything like that ever," Stuart said of the 2,000 in-house ticlcets sold. "(Members) are obviously buyingforfriends,and people who have called them." Tickets are available in three-day packages only, which could be good neWs for somebody who wants to sell a one-day pass at a premium.

By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot Estancia High junior Sam Nelson. who helped lead the Eagles to their third straight Pacific Coast League title, tops the Daily Pilot's All·PCL boys basketball selections as Player of the Year. Nelson is joined by senior teammate Selwyn Mansell on the first team, while Costa Mesa High senior Matt Chaisson is a sec- ond-team choice. Nelson, a 6-foot-4 forward who blends three- point shooting range with an inside presence for the Eagles, averaged 18.8 points in 10 league games, which included eight victories. He was particularly huge in a PCL sweep of title-contending University, pouring in a career- high 40 in the first meeting, then coming back for 27 in the regular-season finale Friday, which clinched the outright crown for Coach Rich Boyce's squad. He had 17 rebounds in the first University victory, at the Trojans' gym. "Sam stepped up for us,• said Boyce, for whom Nelson averaged a team-leading 7.3 rebounds on the season. Nelson added a 27-point effort in the first meet- ing with second-place Aliso Niguel, which the Eagles' also swept, and notched 24 points in a sec- ond-round upset loss at Laguna Hills. Mansell, who returned to his neighborhood BLUE CHIPS Estanda's Sam Nebon (above) and Selwyn Mansell (below), as well u Newport Harbor's Danny Pulido (rtgbt) garnered flnt-team laurels.

NellOn . school for his final prep sea.son after spending the first three at Mater Dei, was the floor leader for the ,,Eagles, while also spearheading the team's trade- mark aggressive defense. Mansell averaged"12.7 points against PCL foes, despite having broken a finger just prior to open- ing the league seaSQn. "U he wouldn't have broken his finger, he would have been an even bigger force for us," Boyce said. Chaisson, who led the luckless Mustangs in scoring all season, averaged 13.6 points per game in the PCL. He bad a season-high 28 points in the first meeting with University and scored 22 two nights before in the PCL opener at Aliso Niguel. Aliso places three players on the first team, including a 6-5 senior center Jeff Munsell, the lone Pilot first-team repeater. Munsell, who averaged 15.6 points in league, was joined by teammates Yousof Ete111adi (16.1) and sophomore Nathan Hair (18.5).

Laguna Beach's Chris Sirianni and Blair Ander- son, who helped engineer the Artists' 66-45 road upset over Estancia last week, round out the first team, along with Laguna Hills junior Saia Makakaufaki. Makakaufaki, a second-team choice as a sopho- more, averaged 11.4 points in league, while Siri- anni clicked for 16 and Anderson for 15.4 per league contest. ERICH Au.EN, COSTA MESA Though Costa Mesa High boys basketball coach Erich Allen was not rewarded with 1 Pactflc Coast League victory, his consistent 1billty to drive his team's performance beyond its talent level, made him the clear, If not conventional, choice for Dally Piiot PCl Coach of the Year. Under the 25-year- old Allen, in his first season at the Mustangs' helm after serv- ing two seasons as sophomore coach at his alma mater, Trabµco tillls High, Mesa lost four PCL games by a combined nine points, Including three decided in the final eight seconds or less. In addition to agonizing losses to La~una Hiiis - 51-50 on two Hawk free throws with eight seconds left and 53-51 on a basket with two seGonds remain- ing -Mesa took league champion Estancia and title-contending University to the wire. Estancia, which has now won 27 straight over Mesa, survived four Mustang possessions in the final 1:30 that could have t ied the game In a 51-47 Estancia win. The Mustangs also had Uni facing overtime, before a driving layin with eight seconds left gave the Trojans' a 92·90 triumph. Mesa missed buzzer-beating field-goal attempts against La~una Hills (twice) and University and was twice within one point of Laguna Beach in the sec- ond half (once within the final 2:51). Newport's Pulido named first-team All~Sea View League •Tars' Jameson a second-team choice in Daily Pilot selections. By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot Newport Harbor High senior Danny Pulido and sophomore teammate Matt Jameson, who helped the Sailors earn their first trip to the CIF Playoffs in three sea- sons, are the lone locals among the Daily Pilot's All-Sea View League boys basketball selec- tions. Pulido, a versatile 6- foot-5 standout who started as a freshman for the Sailors, is a first- team choice after aver- aging 14.2 points D Pulld against Sea View com-anny 0 petition. Jameson, a 5-11 point guard, earns sec- ond-team recognition after averaging 12.4 points in Sea View play. The contribution of both to Harboris third- place finish, however, went beyond the stat sheet, as Pulido's inten-=...::=------=-- sity and Jameson's Matt Jameson steady hand 'helped Coach Larry Hirst's Tars buck the Pilot's prediction of a fifth-place finish. Equally adept attacking the basket from the block, the high post, or the wing, Pulido combined rare ball- handlillg skills with the-size and strength necessary to succeed in the paint. Bound for Oregon as a tight end (he was the New- port-Mesa District Player of the Year in football), Pulido seemingly willed bis team to its playoff-clinching finish, which included a third-place playoff victory Saturday over El Toro. •He's probably one of the most intense kids Newport Harbor has ever had go through its basketball pro- gram,• Hirst said of Pulido, who led the Sailors in scoring in six league games. Pulido, who sat out hl.s sophomore year and missed all but one game last season due to a shoulder injury, joined the team six games into the season after leading the footbe.11 team to the CIF championship game. He posted double f:igurel in all but two league conteltl, induding 21 and a seuon-high 23 in the tint two Sea View contests against sec- ond-place Santa Margarita and league champion Woodbridge, respectively.

By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot IRVINE -Corona del Mar Higb's football team was offida.lly awarded a forfeit victory from Irvine Wednesday, improving the Sea Kings' 1996 record to 5-5. 'Irvine Principal Gail Richards confirmed a videotape review of the Oct. 17 lrvine-CdM Sea View League-opening game, a 21 -0 verdict, revealed the use of an ineligible player. The final word comes two weeks after the CIP Southern Section Executive Committee denied a second appeal from Irvine offidals, who said the eligi- bility problem centered on adininistrative ignorance, rather than any desire to circumvent CIF rules when admit\ing the transfer of a backup wide receiv- er from Edison High. CdM Coach Dick Freeman, whose team's league record improved to 2-3 with the forfeit, was unsuccessful in trying to establish the player's participa- tion on the Sea Kings' videotape.· The player in question was also ineligible for nine nonleague basketball victories, which the team forfeited days after the Executive Committee's ruling.
