Costa Mesa police officers brave the elements in
the annual Baker to Vegas Challenge Cup Relay .
For the second straight year, the team finished third.
•
LAS VEGAS -Three is the
magic number for the team of offi-
cers from the Costa Mesa Police
Department who took part in the
annual Baker to Vegas Challenge
Cup Relay.
The team placed third, the
same result as last year, in the
·under 150· officers class. Their
time was 16:28.
The Challenge Cup, which took
place Saturday and Sunday, is an
annual relay race hosted by the
Los Angeles Police Department.
Law enforcement agencies
from around the country and
Canada took part in the grueling
weekend run, which started 19
miles outside Baker along a two-
lane highway and passed through
the towns of Shoshone and
Pahrump before ending in Cront of
the 1Topicana Hotel in Las Vegas.
Twenty Costa Mesa officers ran
the 120-mile course, which pitted
runners against elements ranging
from the dry, warm desert to 20-
degree temperatures in the moun-
tain passes .
Although part of the race has
participants running up the 5,600-
foot Mountain Springs pass, many
of the runners said the weather -
not the steep hills -was more of a
challenge.
The wann, 61-degree weather
in Baker Saturday afternoon took
its toll on several runners, includ-
ing Officer Paul Bulman. Running
·under the warm sun proved to be
too much for Bulman, who nm the
seven-mile third 1E!9 which started
in the desert and continued up a
steep grade. After completing it in ·
60 minutes, 53 seconds, bis pulse
was 210 beats per minute.
•I felt like I was moving real
slow,• Bulman said as he cooled
down in the medical tent. •Every-
thing was getting real dark. It was
like running with my eyes dosed.•
The Baker to Vegas Challenge
Cup Relay started 15 years ago as
a grudge match between the Los
Angeles Police Department and
the Los Angeles County Sheriffs
Department. Since then, it has
grown into an event that attracts
more than 8,000 participants each
year. This year's race had 196 •
teams.
Lt. Ron Smith set a team record
for six miles, running his leg in 44
miputes, 41 seconds. It was the
same leg he ran last year. .
·1 always run the legs back-to-
back to see if I've improved from
the year before,• Smith said. ·1
was fortunate.,.
Even though the race focuses
on the runners, Detective Phil
Myers, the team's captain, said
they couldn't get through it with-
out help from the support team.
•They're the backbone of the
team,• he said. •Tuey have to sit in
the follow van in two 10-hour
shifts, with minimal bathroom
breaks, and follow at the runners
pace. It's a drag.•

Council approves $25,000
for study of El Toro ~easure
• NeWJ><>rt Beach officials stress that without a
second county airport, city Will face an unbearable
amount of noise from John Wayne Airport.
Datt,..
NEWPORT BEACH
LOoking to stop a new anti-El
Toro ballot measure before it
leaves the runway, the City
Council has . unanimously
endorsed a plan to spend
$25,000 to look for legal defects
in the initiative, which could
doom the proposed airport if it
becomes law.
The City Council on Monday
night launched its first attack
on the anti-airport measure,
just one week after supporters
began collecting signatures for
a petition to put the Safe and
Healthy Conununities Initiative
on the March 2000 ballot.
The initiative would limit the
ability of Orange County offi-
cials to approve the El Toro air-
port without first receiving
overwhebning popular support.
Without the proposed South
County airport at the site of the
El Toro Marine Air Station,
which is set to dose in July,
council members said Newpqrt
Beach woUld become crushed
under incteased air traffic at
John Wayne Allport.
·we believe that the two-air-
port system is fair anct reason-
able for the city of Newport
Beach," said Mayor Dennis
O'Neil. •without a second air-
port. there will be additional
traffic at Job.Ii Wayne. We do
not believe that we should bear
the burden of the entire
region.•
Council members were
required to act quickly in their
effort to derail the initiative,
since state law prohibits cities
from spending taxpayer money
to support or oppose ballot
measures once they have been
certified.
The measure, spearheaded
by Orange County supervisors
Todd Spitzer and Tom Wilson,
would require a two·lhlrds
majority vote· of the public
before the county could autho-
rize an airp<>rt, large jail or tox-
ic waste dump. That could spell
trouble for supporters of the El
Toro a!Jport, since previous vot-
er measures on the ~rt have
split on about 60-40 lines -not
en'bugh to meet the two-thirds
requirement.
• Those percentages also
could be grounds for a legal
challenge smce the ballot mea-
sure, as it is CWTently written,
would allow for a simple major-
ity to require a "super-majori-
ty• of all voters before El Toro iS
approved.
"It's difficult to get a two-
thi.rds vote on any issue,•
O'Neil said. "You can't even
get a two-thirds vote on school
bonds. So we're looking at the
legality of tile initiative, and if it
is appropriate, we will file a
legal challenge. I would sup-
port that. H
Supporters need to collect
more than 71,000 signatures by
Sept. 1 to qualify the meas"ure
for the March 2000 ballot.
·Post office to stay open late for tax day
The postmaster once agwn is being kind to pro-
crastinators.

gotten -a number of local post offices will be open

T hey are beginning to beat
me down.
Oh, sure, I fight back. My
will is Herculean, but their
sheer numbers, enormous bud-
gets and aggressive legions or
hippopotamus-hided hucksters
are beginning to grind me into
tiny bits.
This losing battle I wage is
with American business, the
mightiest ;uggernaut the world
bas ever known.
Its soldiers come at me over
the phone, in my mail and at
my door. Part of the mistake
WM having a listed phone
number.
For the first eight years of
writing this column, I bad an
unlisted number. The reasons
were obvious -especially
when I wrote about such com-
bustible issues as the CLAS
tests, people I encountered at
gun shows. Republicanism as
practiced in Orange County
and other edgy topics.
When we moved to Col-
orado last summer, it seemed
reasonable to have a listed
number so old friends, distant
relatives and the occasional
reader could contact us if they
wished.
Friends and family have our
other number, which is not list-
ed. It's the only one we answer
after the sun is over the
yardarm. The answering
device takes over the listed
number. And 99 times out of
107 there is no messagei boil-
er-room types don't leave mes-
sages.
One of the more persistent
callers is an outfit that purports
to be raising funds for Colorado
law enforcement agencies. I
always ask the silver-tongued
devils who call to please send
me something in wnting.and
I'll consider a donation.
Of course, nothing ever
arrives, even though they
always promise to ·get a

I have looked in sevefdl of

know that such a gizmo exists
but are no help beyond that
Oh, well, maybe somebody will
call our listed number and sell
me one
More likely it will be a mall-
order deal Maybe Amencan
Express. They're even trying to
sell me vacuum cleaners.
What has America come to
when this icon of financial &er-

vacuum cleaners?
Better than that are the
blank checks that MasterCard

other month. There are four of
them My wife's name and
nune are pn.nted on them,
along with our address, phone

really stupid ~g for a bank to

All some nefanous person
has to do is short-stop the
checks and sign one of our
names to it. They could use it
for, say, a mail-order purchase,
where no ID is need, and dean
us out to our limit, which is not
exactly chump change.
I have asked them to stop

they come. Now I really appre-

mother-m-law gave me for

On and on tJus marketing

nobody knows. We are receiv-

week penod, we received
three Cdtalogs each from Nord·
I strom, Coldwater Creek and
Tdlbot's, two from Land's End
dnd hall a dozen more from
places we have never even
hedrd of.
Now you may think:
"Whdt's he carping about? All
he has to do is shut up and
tdke the catalogs to the coat-
ed-paper recycling bin.• Per-
haps so, but you see, my wife
loves catalogs, and most of
those that have come in are
munechdlely festooned with
Post-It note page markers.
I bad hoped that when we

Rescuers also located an area
on the water where there was a
sheen of fuel and strong diesel
smell which could indicate that
the boat sank in the area. How-
ever, divers will not be sent in
because the water 'is 1000 to
1,200 fathoms deep.
Philipps, an experienced com-
mercial fisherman, was last seen
April 4 amid inclement weather
before ·departing for Catalina
Island to fish for squid. He was
reported missing last Wednes-
day, and Coast Guard rescuers
called off the search Friday after
failing to find a single trace of
Philipps or his boat.
Monday's discovery bas
prompted the Coast Guard to
resume ·the search using two
Coast Guard helicopters, an air-
plane and three boats. The initial
search had been concentrated
around the San Pedro Channel
area. and Coast Guard rescuers
were surprised to find wreckage
so far south, Deptula said.
uTo be that far down south is
kind of mysterious for us, H Dep-
tula said.
Another mystery is whether
the radio beacon was triggered
manually or automatically after
possibly sinking, Deptula said.
The search is expected to con-
tinue as long as there's hope that
Philipps will be found, which will
be at least through today, Deptu·

The Newport Pier, rebuilt in 1938, will undergo repairs this year.
Council OKs $190,000 for pier repair
Support posts for the 60-year-old structure will
receive the most attention; Balboa Pier will get
repairs later in the year.
ANDREW STEVHN HARRIS
. lblf Plol
NEWPORT BEACH -Look-
ing to replace key supports for
the 60-year-old Newport Pier,
the City Council has approved
more than $190,000 to repair the
aging structure.
Primary among the repairs is
the replacement of the large
wooden piles that keep the pier
above water. The posts are
chemically treated to withstand
the elements, but still deteriorate
under the turbulent salt water.
The posts also suffer from the
intrusion of a variety of species
of marine life, officials said.
"The pier has hundreds of
piles, and they're constantly
under attack by marine borers,"
said City Engineer Lloyd Dalton.
"They're little critters that get
inside the timber and start eat-
ing away at the body of the ptle
Alter the pile is 50% gone, we
feel it's not worth much any-
more, so we have to replace 1t. •
The city will replace SIX ptles
for the pier this year. Each costs
about $10,000 due to an elabo-
rate process in which workers
must use special equipment to
cut a hole through the top or the
pier and drop the new pile mto
the slot.
Other scheduled repairs to
the pier include maintenance-
related work, such as replacing
steel fasteners that have rusted
away and replacing planks that
suffer from dry rot.
Similar repairs for the Balboa
Pier are planned for laterl this
year, though the city in the'past
hds performed both sets of
repairs simultaneously. But, Dal-
ton sdJd, lhe city's budget simply
didn't contain enough money to
do both sets of repairs at once.
"We've identified Newport
Pier as a little more critical, so
that's the one we're doing first,·
he Sdld.
The two piers re main among
only d hdndful of timber piers
juttrng out from the Califonua
coasthne They had been
destroyed dunng heavy storms
in 1938 and then built anew.
"They've proven to be quite
worthy,# Dalton said . "They look
kind of tacky, but when you con-
sider the amount of money 1t
costs to replace an entire pier,
you realize that they're doing a
great JOb. ·•
Habitat to receive land for second home
!kt, Plot
COSTA l'vfESA -Habitat for
Humanity will get a parcel of land
at 2136 Wallace Sl for its second
affordable housing project in the
city and negotiating rights to land
on Del Mar Avenue for three more
projects later this year.
The City Council, acting as the
Redevelopment Agency, approved
a purchase and sale agreement for
the property on Wallace Avenue,
which has a fair market value of
$10,000. Essentially, the Redevel·
opment Agency will buy the land
from the city before donating it to
Habitat

Construction would take about

head of site development for Habi-

Tue organization hopes to get
people working on the site withtn
the next month or two, said Habitat
President Ron Blake.
Although the council approved
giving Habitat negotiating rights
for land at 282 and 286 Del Mar
Ave., the project could fall through
depending on whether there ts
enough funding for the project
The land at that site has been
appraised at $445,000, said Muriel

staunch supporter of Habitat, Sclld
g;vmg the group negotiating rights
on the property would make it
clear, at least for the next 90 days
that the city is willing and interest-
ed m working with them on the Del
Mar properties. C1ty staff will also
be able to determine during that
time whether the funding will fall
into place.
Cowan emphasized that three
additionaJ uruts on Del Mar
Avenue would go a long way
toward meeting federal require-
ments for low-income housing in
the a ty.
Habitat has received sponsor-
ships for all three homes it's
proposing to build on Del Mar
A.venue, which means the organi-
zation would be ready to move
ahead Wlth construction of the
homes once they get the land,
Blake said.
Mayor Gary Monahan cast the
only clissenbng vote, although he
supports Habitat's cause and voted
for thelt first project in Costa Mesa
last year. Monahan said he doesn't
believe the city has enough money
to enter into the deal.
"I can't see e ntering into a
$445,000 agreement using agency
funds without knowing how it will
be made up to the general fund,~
Monahan said
At issue are debt payments the
Redevelopment Agency has been
making to the city's general fund.
For the past three years, the
agency has made payments of
more than $1 million. nus year, because of new pro-
grams such as the Habitat pTOJect
dnd the first-time home buyer's
program, the Redevelopment
Agency has proposed lowering its
payment to $272,650. Monahan
~d he ~ concerned the lower
repayment would aeate a shortfall
of about $750,000.
The council has scheduled a
discuss10n of the land at 282 and
286 Del Mar Ave. for its May 10
study session.

My wife loved the mush·
room appetizer, which were
absolutely drenched and
sauteed with butter and garllc,
leaving my sensitive stomach
with much to complain about
I am certam my wife 'was
the only person in the last
decade to order the lemon
oregano chicken, which she
loved, and I was one of many
to order the porterhouse steak.
Considenng the dish prices
of $18 to $30, we.were disap-
pointed lh(lt the chicken was
merely commercial grade and
not a higher quality free-
range, wluch we find to be
better-tasting.
Although the porterhouse
steak was tasty, I recommend
the double hlet rmgnon
.. . . ' I
because the New York portion
was a bit fatty for my tastM.
We chose to end the meal
with the Godiva chocolate
cake, which turned out to be
lacking in understated ele·
gance. It was essentially a
pool of chocolate sauce with a
souffle-like cake plopped on
top and a side of vanilla bean
ice cream.
My wife and l decided the
right amount of chocolate
sauce is when the two of us
are left scraping the plate !or
more.
The evening was delightful.
ln the end, the question was,
are you a Morton's person or a
Ruth Chris person? To answer
that question, we can only
hope Unc\e Jordan likes Ruth
Chris and another anniversary
is upon us.

Our crowd, comprising tradi-
tionalists, ordered Mandarin dishes
but agreed that next time we
would try Szechwan. The (War)
wonton soup ($5.95 for two) had a
rich tasty broth. with the chicken
having spent ample time in the
soup. lt was served with extraordi·
narily fresh, crispy noodles.
In my search for the best shrimp
with lobster sauce ($12.50), natu-
. rally this was a main course selec·
tion -a delicate blend of shrimp
and egg whites.
~tead of pork in their sauce,
the chef used mushrooms and soy
beans. Luscious and flavorful, this
was served over sticky white rice.
Enjoy a relaxed d ining atmosphere

Aysia 101
Where do you take someone to
share in their 82nd birthday cele-
bration? Aysia 101 on Pacific Coast
Highway in Newport Beach.
My husband and I had been to
Aysia 101 for the first time several
months earlier with business
clients, and had decided at that
time this would be the perfect
restaurant to celebrate my mother's
82nd birthday.
My mother's birthday is Valen-
tines Day, so I have learned over
the years to make reservations way
ahead ... in mid-January I called
Aysia 101.
The dishes arrived at the same
time and were placed on the table
Chinese family style, to be passed
and shared. The lobster was divine
and very plentiful (so much that my
mother took several tails home to
be savored the next day). The rest
we shared, and enjoyed their spicy,
delicious flavors to the fullest.
The catfish was served in an
elegant manner on a large plate
that accommodated the whole fish
and surrounding greens. The fish
was prepared at the table to make
self-serving a manageable task.
The Kung Pau shrimp was the
spiciest of the dishes we ordered,
but it was good for pallets prefer-
ring moderately spicy food. The
combination of shrimp, catfish and
lobster with the green beans was
an exotic mix of spicy and succu-
lent flavors.

Fleming's Prime
Steakhouse & Wme Bar
Along with martinis and swing
• dancing, red meat seems to have
come back in style. If you want to
catch the trend, check out Flem-
ing's Steak House and Wine Bar
located in Fashion Island, next to
the Hard Rock Cate.
Fleming's purchases fresh beef
from Iowa and then grills a variety
of cuts -all juicy, savory and per-
fectly primordial. Diners can get
basic but well-prepared fresh fish,
seafood chicken. lamb or veal.
Start with a martini Fleming's
Prime Martini menu features the
libation "shaken• and served
tableside, and offers an incredible
selection of 10 different gin and
vodka mixtures. With names like
the •007• and •lbe Nutty One,"
we can promise you an interesting
and lively evening.
As you sip away, try the barbe-
cue shrimp appetizer, which is ~·
pered With butter, garlic and Cajun
seasonings. Use a sllce of the nev·
er--ending supply of warm olive
bread to scoop up the remaining
butter sauce. Other appetizer
selections include onion rings,
smoked salmon Oatbread or the
Dungeness crab cocktail
All $ide selections are served a
la carte. The portions are enough
for at least two or three people. The
mashed potatoes with roasted gar·
lie and green onions are a must
with any of the beef selections -
very creamy and perfectly sea-
soned.
There are also several other
potato sides like the tyonnaise
potatoes, shoestring, garlic or steak
fries. The sauteed wild mushrooms
are also tasty. The dish is served
with a medley of oyster, portobello, ·
shiitake and domestic mushrooms.
The main entree selections are
also served a la carte. If you are
really hungry, try the rib eye, a 16·
ounce hearty cut with an abun-
dance of marbling.
If you are reaching your intake
limit, a petit filet is a better choice.
Steaks are grilled within table
view. Each bite melts in your
mouth like butter. The Austr~
lamb chops are also very delicious
and a little lighter.

Pasta Perfect
Now this is what I call gourmet
fast food. Although the chic Pasta
Perfect Restaurant on Newport
Boulevard serves only pastas and
some Italian basics. the prices and
fast service puts it in a unique posi-
tion of filling the void between fast-
food chains and a sit-down restau·
rant.
Using the popular sushi bar for·
mat, there are 15 chairs at the pas·
ta bar and eight booths on the
perimeter.
At the bar, one has a choice of
dozens of sauces and pastas. The
pastas are parboiled ahead of time
so you are· guaranteed al dente
pastas in a matter of minutes. Salad
is either Caesar or tomato with feta
cheese. Nothing fancy, but defi·
nitely mouth-watering with sauces
that put some fine Italian restau-
rants to shame. Only fresh ingredi-
ents for the sauces, with the organ-
ically grown herbs adding a sump·
tuous aroma to the restaurant.
The warmth and camaraderie of
eating at a sushi bar is carried one
step further with the visual displays
of colors, along with the sensory
aromas. Their sampler portions, for
only $3.95 to $4.95, allow the
patron to try several varieties with-
out going away broke, or feeling
too full.
Normal portions are $9.95 to
$11.95, including salad, espresso,
cappuccino, tiramisu and scrump-
tious cannoll, which are perfect
ways of ending your mini feast.
At the tables, your menu
includes a tasteful chicken
marsala, eggplant parmigiana,
golden sauteed calamari. and a
wonderful halibut. Very simple,
but someone sure knows about
Italian cooking. No sampler dishes
here, but that's what the bar is all
about.

has cleverly provided a •Glossary

Tuke for example one of my
favorite appetizers, Iman Bayildi

name for this eggplant dish literal-

eggplant is stuffed with braised
tomatoes and peppers -the ulti-

Zov's multicultural cuisine com-
bines flavors and techniques from
the Middle East, Asia and the

you can choose her signature rack

olive mashed potatoes over a
pomegranate sauce.

According to a summary of rec-
ommended improvements, the
city proposes to:
• Reconstruct alleys in con-
crete.
• Close three alleys at Baker
Street to cars and pedestrians.
• Install a traffic signal at Baker
Street and Coolidge Avenue.
• Encourage the use of Paulari-
no Park.
• Replace private walls with
masonry walls covered with stuc-
co.
• Establish a Property Owner's
Association.
• Start a Neighborhood
Watch program.
The biggest problem in the
area is the condition of the alleys,
Weichmann said. Because of their
condition, city street sw~epers
can't service them as often as nec-
essary, leading to a buildup of ·
trash.
"They've deteriorated to the
point that they need constant ·
maintenance," City Engineer
Ernesto Munoz said of the alleys.
The price tag could be steep.
Reconstruction could cost
$435,460, according to staff
reports. The installation of the
traffic signal and landscaping in
the area each could cost $100,000.
No funding sources have been
identified, but the plan will be
part of the council's budget dis-
cussion in June and July.
Another major problem is that

the· Coolidge/Fillmore neighbor-
hood has become a dumping ·
ground for large furniture items
such as couches and refrigerators.
Trash pickups are so infrequent
that garbage builds up around
Dumpsters.
The cleanup day the Mesa
North committee held last year
put a dent in the problem, but
Dixon -who visited the neigh-
borhood in the last week -said
the area was strewn with mat-
tresses, couches and refrigerators.
Staff described the problem as
an H ongoing battle" and said
landlords have been cited for not
removing trash frequently
enough.
One idea is to organize the
landlords in the area so they can
agree on one trash hauler instead
of using the four that now service
the area.
Dixon said she would support
publishing the names of landlords
in. the newspaper for repeated
violations.
The problems in the
Coolidge/Fillmore area are an
echo of what plagued the Shali-
mar neighborhood.
MThe Shalimar area improved
many times over from where it
was," said Weichmann, who
would like to see similar changes
in the Coolidge/Fillmore area.
Shalimar now boasts closed

• Mustangs boys basketball coach
steps down after three seasons.
BARRY FAUUCNl'!R
!Wyfb
COSTA MESA -Erich Allen announced
Tuesday he has resigned as Costa Mesa
High's boys basketball coach, less than a
week after giving assurances he would return
for a fourth season at the Mustangs' helm.
Allen. 27, said he stepped down to pursue
a master's degree, as well as to put his family
first. He and his wife Ana are expecting their
first child in October.
Allen, the Daily Pilot Pacific Coast League
Coach of the Year in 1997, compiled an 11-62
t.._ecord, 0-30 in the PCL.
He will continue teaching social studies at
Mesa, where he is the department co-chair.
"I'm taking a timeout to take care of some
personal things, all of which are positive," said
Allen, who does not rule out a return to coach-
ing.
"Definitely,• he said of a potential return to
the bench. "I enjoyed being a high school
coach and if that opportunity presents itself, or
maybe the chance to be an assistant at the col-
lege level, that would be an option I would
take a look at.•
Allen said last week he was working
toward preparlpg for hiS fourth season, with a
roster that returns the top five scorers and los-
es only two to graduation.
He said he is thankful to have gotten his
first varsity head coaching assignment at
Mesa and is appreciative of the administrative
support he received. He also praised the
efforts of his players, despite the fact they
experienced little reward in the win column.
"I had the chance to work with some good
people and some really wonderful kids,•
Allen said. "I think teaching and coaching is a
learning process. You learn as you go. You try
to incorporate the things you do well and try to
learn from your mistakes.•
Allen said Mesa's on-court struggles were
not a factor in his decision. The Mustangs
have not had a winning season since 1982.
•1 don't th.ink there was a level of frustra-
tion, but there is a lot of work to be done {by
his successor). We had some moments, put a
few games together and made it exciting.•
Allen became Mesa's 1.tth coach after
guiding the nabuco Hills High sophomore
team for two seasons. He played at nabuco
Hills, Orange Coast College and Western
State College in Colorado.

COSTA MESA -Estancia High softball
coach Rkh Boyce's favorite sports team (the

season on a hard-throwing right-hander
with a fierce demeanor on the mound.
But, for merely the pnce of admission,
Estancia fans Uus spring get the same thing
m sophomore Joanna Danner.
"It's hard to say if she's the best pitcher in
the Pacific Coast League, because we
haven't seen Aliso Niguel or Laguna Hills
yet and those schools usually have top
pitchers," Boyce said of Danner. •But I
guarantee you she's as tough as anybody in
terms of battling, and she may be the most
intense player in the league, that's for sure."
Behind Danner's complete-game five-bit-
ter with 14 strikeouts, the visiting Eagles
Tuesday defeated cross-town rival Costa
Mesa, 3-1, m the PCL opener at TeWinkle
Park.
"I think Joanna is the best pitcher in the
league," said Costa Mesa Coach Jim
Weeks, whose team received a solid effort
from juruor right-hander Brooke Shanley,
who pitched a two-hitter and yielded no
earned runs but lost when her defense com-
mitted four errors in the fourth inning.
Estancia (8-3 overall) beat Mesa (4-11)
Estanda's Stacy Barnett lays d own a bunt,
but the Mustangs caught her at first base.
earlier in the Costa Mesa Tournament, 10-0,
in a mercy-rule victory, but this time Danner
found herself in a pitching duel with Shan-
ley.
Danner, who has fanned 10 or more in a
game eight times this season, lifted her sea-
son strikeout total to 130 with her 98-pitch
outing. Danner, who walked one, struck out
18 against visiting Santiago on March 11,
her season high.
•Per game, (Danner) gets as many strike-
outs as anybody," Boyce said. •She has an
uncanny ability to come back in the count
when she's behind. She just battles. She's a
competitor ... she's a fiery competitor."
Of the two bits Shanley allowed, Weeks
said both should have been gloved by field-
ers.
In the fourth inning, Estancia's Stephanie
Cachola singled to right-center field, moved
to second on a wild pitch and scored on
Mesa errors. Debra Wyman's grounder was
bobbled for an error with Cachola on third,
but Wyman was credited with an RBI
because Cachola was on her way to score,
anyway.
With one out in the fourth and Eagle run-
ners at second and third, Shanley struck out
the next hitter and almost worked out of the
jam.
But Estancia first baseman Lisa Steinfeld
bit a blooper that landed on the infield dirt
and squirted away for a two-run single,
scoring Danner and Wyman.
In Estancia's fifth, Mesa left fielder
Pauline Le made a fine running catch near
the line.
In the inning's home half, the Mustangs
broke up the shutout bid as Erica Melcer
reached on a bad-hop infield single and
took second on the play when the ball was
thrown away.

Corona del Mar ·
• Blocking, not blocking out, became the former CdM
basketball standout's legacy as a professional athlete.
BARRY FAULKNER
W hen Cal State lftt
Fullerton called
with a scholarship
offer, then-Corona del Mar
High senior Hank Goebel
wondered aloud if he could play
Division I college basketball.
Problem was, it wasn't the
Titans' basketball coaches who
were calling.
Four years later, there
was no such confusion
when Goebel fielded
a call from then-Los
Angeles Rams Coach
John Robinson,
congratulating the
offensive line standout
on being the Rams'
eighth-round selection in
the NFL draft.
·1 was 218 pounds as a ,
freshman and I kind of avoided
contact,• he recalled of his
introduction to Division I football.
"But by lifting and just eating
a lot, 1 was 260 by the time I WM
a sophomore. I realized 1 had to
get a little more physical one day
when I got knocked from the
(CSUF practice) field onto the
street."
He saw time at offensive

was a fixture in Coach Gene :
Murphy's starting lineup

including a Pacific •
Coast Athletic Assn.
title in 1983 and an 11-J
campaign in 1984,
during which the
ntans climbed to an
unprecedented No. 20
national ranking.
"I went from some-• "When I moved to
Newport Beach from
Phoenix before my

like football, to being a.
senior co-captain with
(future NFL comerback) Mark
Collins," Goebel said.
junior year, I was a basketball
player,• Goebel recalled. ·1
played football because my dad
liked the sport.•
Goebel was, in fact, more
known for his heroics on the
hardwood than the gridiron at
CdM.
A 6-foot-7, 215-pounder as a
prep, he was the sixth-leading
scorer on the Sea Kings' 1981
ClF Southern Section 3-A
champions. He then averaged
7 .8 points per game in Coach
Jack Enion's methodical,
structured offense as a senior
-third-best on the 3-A
semifinalist -and was a
rebounding force.
"I was kind of like Dennis
Rodman, before there was a
Rodman," Goebel said. •I was
always bigger than everybody
else. I didn't jump well, but I
could block out."
Goebel, whose CdM
basketball teams went a
combined 42-10 in his two
seasons, played tight end for
Coach Dick Morris' football
squads, induding the 1980 Sea
View League tri-champions.
But Goebel triggered the
curiosity of Cal State Fullerton
nK:Niten on the basketball
court.
"They said they came to some
of my basketball games and the
way I was beating up the rest of
the guys on the court, they
thought I could become a good
football player,• Goebel said.
Tuey were, of course, correct. .
Goebel said he would have
gone higher in the NFL draft,
but for a knee injury sustained
late in bis senior season.
He built himself up to 308
pounds (28 more than his
maximum at Fullerton) for his
first Rams training camp, but
re-injured his knee in preseason
drills. Surgery to remove half of
his knee cap sidelined him for
the year.
•After that, the knee was
never really strong enough to
support that kind of weight,"
he said.
Goebel said he played in
eight games as a pro, including
three replacement games during
the 1987 strike year. But when
football was no longer a career
option, he became a car
salesman.
•1 made more my first year
selling cars than (the $80,000)
I did my final year playing
football,· said Goebel, who
eventually became lease
manager, before beginning his
own Irvine-based bookbinding
business about a year ago.

COSTA MESA -Estancia High
baseball coach Tim Green said it
was one arm which separated the
Eagles from contending with intra-
city rival Costa Mesa Tuesday night
in a Pacific Coast League game at
TcWinkle Park.
But the Mustangs outdid the
Eagles in every facet of the game to
open more than an arm's-length
distance 10 a 22-7 Mesa victory
which was shortened by the mercy
rule.
The arm Green was refening to
belongs to senior nght-hander
Ruben Manalla, who settled down
after allowing four Estanca base
runners in the first to record his
sixth victory without a loss.
Mancilla, who retired the side on
seven pitches in the second and six
in the tlurd, gave way to Carlos
Franco in the fourth.
But Mesa Coach Kirk Bauer-
mClSler summoned Mancilla after a
six-run Estancia upnsing in tho fifth
and he quickly retired three straight
to bring a mercy~rule conclu ion.
Mandlla was also on<' of several
hilting stars for the winners (8·3-1,
4-1-1 in league), who went through
their batting order four time · tho
first three inmngs to open a 20·1
bulge.

Opening lead: Sill of •
By and large, bndge players fall
into three categories -novice, aver-
age and expert. This deal could help
you rate your ••me. Cover the East-West hands with your thumbs and
decide how you would play three no
ll\lmp after the lead of low spade
fetches the jack from East.
'The auction is rout.Int' After South
opened • 1.S-17 point one no ttump,
North checked on whether South
held a four-card m&JOf, then settled in
the no-trump game when South
denied posscsslJ\I one. The novice wins the first trick with
the king and can count eight fast
tricks. Either a successful diamond or
club finesse will produce the ninth
trick, and declarer will mentally loss a coin to detennine which to take. As
the cards lie it makes no difference -
both finesses are destined to fail, Bild
with the finesse goes the contract.
The average player improves on
this line slightly. After winning the
first trick with the kina of spades.
declarer cashes the ace and king of
clubs in an auempt 10 drop the queen.
When rfothing good happens, declar-
er tries the diamond finesse -down
two.
The expen lands 1he contract with ~· Afler winn ing 1he king of
es. declarer cashes exactly three
rounds of hearts (declarer cannot
afford a discard on the fourth heart),
then 1eads a spade to the ten. West
can rattle off four spade tricks, on
which declarer discards a card from
each minor). but then must lead into
one of declarer's minor-sui1 tenaces
to give South the ninth trick.
