That quickly led to a news story. Corona del Mar students were detained at the TiJua· na border crossing last fall by U.S Custom~ officials, Who questioned why the girls were bringing bootleg Ritalin into the country But the story didn't end there. One Un.Jn· swered question led to another . Why were Corona del Mar students buying Ritalin with such frequency in MeXJco that one Tijuana pharmacy posted a photo of two girls on the wall. adopting them as thetr mas· cots? How many girls were abusing Rrtalin in an attempt to shed pounds? Was this a symptom of a bigger problem with eating disorders on campus? And why did this phenomenon seem cen· tered at Corona del Mar High 7 And so began a three-month irwest1gatt0n.

She talked with more than 15 parents • in addition to counselors, docton and nutn- tionists who deal with eatmg dtsorden. And this ts what she found. The Corona del Mar High School communt· ty has a problem. Many girls -not just a handfvl, but a sizable minority -are using Ritaltn to lose weight. Others think a fat-free pretzel and a Diet Colee is a perfect lunch. It's a campus filled with girls who have an unhe<llthy obsession with thelt weight. alth<?ugh it's often cloaked in the guise of "being healthy ..

The woman working there smiled at ut as we walked m, and then the phone : ang. She answered it and Amy and I analyzed the flavor selection. Amy told me about her day at work. A few minutes went by and I looked over to the woman on the phone, but she just kept on talking. A few more min- utes went by and Amy and I looked longingly at the toppmg selecbons. •rt seems like she could put her friend on hold while she helped us," I said. The woman kept talking while winding the phone cord around her fingers She smiled at us rather sheep- ishly. 1 decided she must be talking to her boyfriend. Amy and I looked at thf:! frozen yogurt machines and then back at each other. I wondered if we should JUSt leave. But I was still happy talking to Arny and we really dJd want frozen yogurt, so we waited . And waited. "Well, I don't think I'll be putting anytlung in the ,Up jar," I said to Amy. Just then the woman hung up the phone and practically ran over to us. ·I am so sorry to have kept you wait- ing so long," she said. Apparently it had been her boss on the phone, and she had left him many messages through- out the day. She needed to tell him that she needed help, that her co-worker was two hours late. and that the last crew left the place in shambles. "What can I get you?" she asked. •1 really am sorry, but I just had to talk to him. I've waited hours." I paid and left a bigger tip than nor- mal. I was ashamed of my n~ative thoughts. "Wow, there's a great example of how easy it is to judge someone and be totally wrong," I said to Amy while we ate our desserts She agreed. The woman rushed around clean- ing the other tables "I've been trymg to do that for hours. Again, than.ks for your patience," she said with a weary voice. "It's no problem. We're sorry you are so short-handed," I said. Just then a mother and two rambunctious boys walked in. Actually the boys romped in and the mother slumped in. While they argued about the acceptable size of yogurts, an older couple walked in. After a few mmutes, the man started tapping his foot impatiently. Amy and I thanked the woman agam as we left. We're all familiar with the Bible verse that tells us not to judge. I found an interesting translation of the verse that says "Thy to show as much com- passion as your father does. Never _ aitiaze or condemn-or it will all come back on you. Go easy on others, then they will do the same for you." I had clearly misjudged that over- worked woman. I pray that each time I'm tempted to do that again, I stop before I get started and remind myself to go easy on others. 1 sure hope they go easy on me. • And you can quote me on that. • CINDY ntANE CHRISTESON Is • N9wport 8ffCh resident who spe•ks tr.qu@fltly to par-· . enting groups.

A 8 Sot\Jrdoy, August 28, 1999 ewpo~ council issues assurances about water STACYBOOWN OlfrPb NEWPORT BEACH-With slowing water currents easing fears about the possibility of cont- &minated water crossing its ocean border, dty officials Friday issued reassurances to residents and vis· ltors that waters here ara sale. In a public letter, Mayor Den- nis O'Neil said the waters are tested frequently and they rou- tinely come back with clean bills of health. The mayor cautioned that swimming near storm drains should be avo1ded to sidestep potential infection. A new state law enacted edl'lier this summer expanded the county's testing program. The test identilies three dilfer- ent indicators of human pathogens. If a particular indicator ls above a certain level. the county must post the beaches as closed. "Given the new standards, we may see more dosed beache~ not because they are dirtier, but because they are held to higher standards," O'Neil said. City officials said a shifting tide Friday reversed the flow of bacte- ria-contaminated water. A day eatlier, county workers had cau- tioned the currents were hcad1119 toward Newport Beach. The cleanliness of stonn drams and sewers are unportant mdica- tors to the cieanline.ss of the ocean, officials said. They cautioned items hosed down into the gutter, swept into the street, or put down a storm dram are not items that are . treated. The material goes directly into the Newport Bay or the ocean. Dunng swnmer months, those pipelines become conduits to the harbor and ~ean for dog waste, trash, fertilizers and other harm- ful items. "To keep the bay clean and the . beaches open, gutters must be kept dry and residents must pick up after pets,• O'Neil urged. "Realize that if you don't, these materials will be in the Bay m a few days." O'Neil said the aty has 2,000 separate storm drains that enter local waters, with the la,gesl tnbu- taries to the harbor and Back Bay starting in cities upstredffi such as Irvine, Costa Mesa and Santa Ana. Upstream neighbors should be reminded to practice the same precautions about trash, dog waste and otller contaminants, the mayor said.

But Ritalln, commonly pre- scnbed to treat attenbon deficit disorder, is merely the newest technique girls at Corond del Mar use to keep themselves thm. At least two students were. hospitalized last yedJ because of Ritalin abuse or anorexia. And there were rumors of many more, Sdld Corona del Mar student Chelsea Hover, a senior who works on the Tri· dent school newspaper and did a special report on the Ritalin phenomenon last May. The problem of eating dis- orders has been an open secret on campus for years. The school has developed a reputabon, within the New- port-Mesa school district and beyond, as the eabng chsorder . •• capital of the county. -"It's a stereotype of our school," Chelsea said. School officials and pd.tents -sometimes reluctantly - acknowledge it's a wide- spread problem But it's not one most of them seem to want to talk about : The idea that students are • wrecking their health and dabbling in illegal drugs in order to make their bodies conform to an unattamable , stan.daid of beauty shatters •• the community's perfect image of itsell. : "We're a very appearance- : conscious area," said Man- ' anne Scott, a Corona del Mar mother who is a member of a school-culture task force whose mission, in part, is to raise awareness of eating dis· orders issues. "We were aware of tt last year .... It's just • like any other abuse. Nobody wants to talk about it openly. "We can't point the finger a t the kids or the school. We need to look at ourselves as a , comrnwtlty and wonder why we empha ize appearance so much, and how it trickles down to our children in horn: ble ways.• · · · Abusing Ritalin to lose ii weight is not a well-known phenomenon around the country.

Alexis said she doesn't know how the girls at her school got the idea to snort Ritalin, which is chemically related to amphetamine. In the 1960s, amphetamine was used as a diet drug -until doctors realized how ddnger- ous it is. rn her Tndent article, Chelsea concluded that the drug was a presence on cam- pus, and that many at her school were sampling it m their quest for the perfect body. She added that the majority of users graduated in June. Students at Newport Har- bor, Corona's rival high school, report-"often gleeful- ly -that they have heard Corona has a problem with Ritalin. The myth, at least, is that guls at Corona will do any- Uting to be thm -although this thinking is probably col- ored by the deep Tivalnes between the two schools. ·Everyone at Corona sni(fs Ritalin, and almost no one at Harbor does," said Andrew, • a student at Newport Harbor. Andrew suffers Crom atten- tion deficit ctisorder and has taken Ritalm to control 1t for years. His brother, a Corona stu- dent, used to pilfer it and sell it to his classmates. ·These guls would come over to our house to buy 1t, • Andrew said. "And I'd be like, 'Eat.' " "I must have pa.id him $500, • said Alexis. •we'd be pulling up at his house behind each other, c~g and saying, please get some for us." 'It's like somewhere in their brain, a switch gets flipped, and they have the disease.' 'Anorexia and bulimia are Jwnping by leaps and bounds,· said Deborah McCarthy, a Newport Beach nutritioniSt who specializes m th~~eabnent of eating disor- ders and whose name occu- p1es a prominent place m the school nurse's Rolodex McCarthy was quick to add that she does not believe eat- ing disorders are worse at Corona than they are among any other population of highly affluent, pressured, 101age- conscious girls. "It's not all the girls at the school,• said school board President Serene Stokes ... But even if it's a small number of girls, we need to help them. It's very important." '.Jbe chief symptom of anorexia is sell-induced star- vation, accompanied by obsessive exerase. Bul.inlia involves bmge eating and purging. But that doesn't meari that every young girl who diets is ariorexic or bulimic, or that every girl who niffs Ritalin has an eating disorder and a drug problem. Eating disOrders •are on a continuum," MCCarthy exp lamed. At some point, m some girls, dieting "crosses the line" into •obsessive, ritualis- tic, comp~ and habitual behavior.

Aki. Like McCarthy, George treats guls from Corona del Mar High School, but she also emphasized that she doesn't think Corona has any more of a problem thdll any other school with similar demo- graphics. Newport Harbor High School, for example, also has students who suffer from eat- ing disorders. Last spring, Harbor's school nurse called Debbie Norman, Corona's nurse, for advice on how to t{.cat eating disorders. "People hdve it [al Harbor), but it's not like a schoolwide problem the way it is at Coro- na," Andrew said.· Corona student body Presi- dent Claire Duggins said Ritalin was d huge presence on the Corona campus last year, and her fnends at Har- bor were barely aware of it. "I've never figured out why it was so big at Corona,· she so.i~. "I thmk tt's the pres- sure " 'I don't think the eating thing comes from pressure from guys to be beautiful. It's the competition from girls.' A t many Orange County }Ugh schools, mixed in with th.e band geeks, the ston- ers, the Jocks cllld the latchkey kids are large populations of affluent, high-adueving image-conscious guls from high-powered, image-con- scious families -the popula- tion that p~ycholog1sts believe ts most likely to suffer from eatlng di. orders. At Corona, most girls fit this profile. Many students say their high school community -perhaps unwittingly -fos- ters an extremely compebtive and high-pressure environ- ment. "Each year, it's gettmg even more competitive. lt's a really good school But it's really competitive," srud Senior Oass President Sarah Parker, ticking oH pressures she and her class- mates face. ~The pressure to g<'t into a good college. The pressure to get a good job. The pressure to be on top. Parents want to be able to brag about thetr kids.• Those braggmg nghts are hard to come by. Corona is one of the highest-achieving schools m the state. There are legions or students with stellar grade-point averages, high SAT scores, and lists of other accomplishments. Corona del Mar often sends more stu- dents to Ivy League schools than Newport Harbor, Costa Mesa and Estancia high schools combined. The pressure sometimes shocks outsiders. In 1994, in an effort to give their children an extra nudge at getting into college, parents or Corona students wrote letters to Stan- ford University's admissions office. inf onrung officials there that other Corona students did not deserve to be let into the school ahead of their children, and ratting out vanous infrac• tions other applicants had committed. •Stanford admis:s1ons • called the school distrtct and said 'What the hell is going on.' • remembered Jim de Boom, who was on the school board at the time. •Tue com- petition for success is abs0h1tely fierce.• The affluence, too, is incredible.

Such .:1 families are often very slow tO' w admit there is a problem. .11 Sarah Parker agreed with 11 • this, noting tha\ everyone a t her"Vlil school is aware that there is a lJl'U problem with food issues, but ' a many girls and their parents ate 4 reluctant to talk about it. ' •Admitting the truth,• sbe .ui1 said, means looking at yourself u and "admitting that you have a • problem, too.• It's also hard to interfere in someone else's life, she said, IJ noting that many parents, seeing their daughter's dangerously t j. skinny friends, hesitate before •f,11 taking direct action. 11 •Tue parents see it, too, but 1 1• they're not going to talk about f b\ No one really wants to crlticite" anyone else's parenting,• she nrru' Said.

"They're i ashamed." " Another reason parents may ~ be slow to take action, said George, is that "being thin is .111 part of being successful" in Newport Beach: •vou know thntlll1 old saying, 'You can never be •flf too nch or too thin?' • •11n Ann told students about the.. u po.Yfer of denial firsthand when shl gave her speech. "One day, my mom c;ame to me crying, 'Just look at yourself. u you are notlung but a bag of :;tlf bones: •Ann said. ·1 had no um clue what she was throwing a fitw. about.

I •rt. was sbll unsatisfied with my •11>t appearance, and was deter- mined to look like the gul on tlu:r. cover of Seventeen." Many parents and students say another reason people aren't . broadcasting the eating disorder issue is they fear the flack the school will get for it. Students and parents are proud of their school, and wary of what they perceive to be a tendency in the community to point fingers and take potshots at Corona. Martin said he was •deeply concerned• that people not jump to the conclusion that the high school fosters the problem. Nationwide, 12% of all high school seniors -the vast majon-1 ty of them women -suffer from eating disorders, according to the National Assn. of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disor- ders in Illinois. Six percent of these sufferers will die from the disease, from staJVation, or from complications such as heart fail- ure or liver failure. •It's not a high school prob- le m," Martin said. "It's a societal problem. It affects young teenage girls from upper mid· dle-dass communities, and the fact that we have large numbers of th~ kinds of people, it's going to show up a t this schoor more. It wouldn't be fair to 5f( that Corona del Mar is the seedbed." wt spnng, in response to an 8rticle m the Daily Pilot, the Orange County News Channel came to the school to interview students about the practice of snorting Rit4lin. The principal chased the cameras off campus, but a foot· ball player followed them and gave an intervie'w. He was glad the girls snort Rit4lin, the football player said.

Lest spring, Martin banned a Daily Pilot reporter from coming on campus to talk about food with students.

"We all know there is a prob- lem. We just don't like to be remirtded of it,• said one senior who. asked that her name not be used because the subject of eat- ing disorders is so controversial on campus. Pjll'ents and students are wary of anything that could Jfut their school in a bad light, said Chelsea, the author of the Ritahn sto1111 in the school newspaper •1 approached the article as like The Secret of Corona,' • said Chelsea. "I don't think the administration was very happy with it." While she was reporting the piece, school officials refused to . discuss the issue with her at length and accused her of •sen- sationali.zl.Jlg" a senous top1c, · she said. - Martin said it was not that he was •afraid to talk about it.• "The reason we don't want to talk about it is confidentiality,• he scild, noting that laws prevent him from discussmg private stu- dent matters with anybody. "No. 2, we have to be vetrf careful thdl we're not nusquoted ... or taken out of context, partic- ularly with student reporter..,• he added, explaining that being r:rusquoted could result m two weeks of angry phone calls from pa1e11ts upset about something in the article. ·so the path of least resistance is to avoid dis- ~n of sensitive issues, beyond the statistics that we all know.

He said he had serious doubts about the accuracy and method- ology of the survey. Alexis, however, said the drug was increasirigly prevalent in her and her fnends' lives. Though they prunarily relied on the drug as an appetite sup- pressant, Alexis said she and her friends also began to use it to make parties and outings more fun. ·we wouldn't go out without it,• she said. She and her friends bought the drugs on the flour- ishing, studerit-operdted black market. Originally, she said, the pills came from students who had it legitimately prescrtbed to treat attention deficit disorder, or from pharmacies in Mexico willing to sell to teenage girls who do not have prescnpfions Last spring, Mexican pharma- cists posted pictures of girls from Corona on a wall m theu Ti1ua- na pharmacy They had made so many trips down there that pharmacists adopted them as mascots. Last fall, girls Crom Corona were stopped by U.S. Customs offioals trying lo bring a load of black-market Ritalin across the border. Since theri, Alexis said, the girls send their boyfriends. "It's called making a T J run," Alexis said . At Corona del Mar, the pnce of the magic pills varies depend- ing on the seller and the source Alexis estimates it averaged out to about 50 cents a pill, or $4 a day -a middling amount of money for the averdge Corona del Md! student's wdllet to bear, and incidentally, d lot less than the going rate for bldck-market Ritalin around the country. "Four dollars That's noth- ing," AleXlS said contemptuously when asked where she got the money. •niere's a lot of money here. Our parents, they're doc- tors, or lawyers, or stockbrokers.

Everybody just tries to ignore the facts." Some of her friends' mothers, she said, everi collude in their daughter's eating disorders. "In Newport, all the mothers are perfect and have plastic surgery," she said. "They want their kids to be just as good.• Alex.is' mother tells a different story. She clidn't know about her daughter's Ritalin habit, but she knew somethlrig was wrong. Her daughter was wasting away. •1 was losing my mind with worry,• she said. llut like many moth rs whos • daughten; uffer from eating dis· orders, nothing her mother did -not cooking Spec:1dl m ls, or ordenng her daughter to eat - eemed to wprk.

It began with a bad run-m with the drug that had become her salvation. Eventually, the magic pills took a toll. One morning, Alexis couldn't get out of bed. She wound up at the doctor, and her secret came out. Her parents hired a personal trainer to help her Jose weight •the right way.• Now, at every meal, they urge her to eat.

Her personal contact with audiences has paid oU for NTAC. Some years ago. the theater group was remembered in the will of two longtime season sub- scribers -to the tune of $10,000. Much of that money is being spent at the moment on a major remodeling pro1ect at the theater. Backstage space and a green room area are being added, and when the 20th season begins next month, the actors will be able to walk from their down- stairs dressing rooms to the back· stage area without getting damp . if it happens to be raining.

Getttng a bead start on the 1999 campaign, Orange Coast College Athletic Director Jane Hilgendorf (left) and college presJdent Margaret Gratton (right) check signals wtth veteran coach GordJe Fitz.el. ·overall, they've been real good," Taylor said. "It's been a "ery busmess·hke atmosphere around here, with guys really working bdid. •1t•s a very spirited group of guys," Taylor continued. •Not to mention that the weather has been 1ust outstanding, so no com· plaints from me." The Pirates' first opportunity to rut opposing players will be a Sept. 3 scrimmage against Santa Monica College at 1 p.m. at LeBard Stadium. "We've been working with ttbout 35 plays so far," Taylor sdid. •Before the scrimmage, we would like to expand that to 45- 50 plays." One.. of the biggest surprises • soptiomore running back Ray- mond Ohrel (Newport Harbor High). •He's been runrung faster in l:>ractice than 1 remember Crom last year," Taylor S8.1d. "That just comes from how hard he's worked over the offseason and into this season." Another unportant ingredient to the offensive mil for the Plfates is quarterback Jared Flint. The 6·foot·6 sophomore threw for 1,595 yards with nine touch· downs last year and Tuylor has been excited with his preseason form. "H~'s throwing the ball with a . . lot of confidence and I'm expect- ing some big things from him," Taylor said. Taylor has also enhanced his coaching staff, adding four new assistant coaches to his staff, ~ hich includes Paul Briggs (offensive line), Mike Mayne (outside linebackers), Kurt Clemens (oUensive line) and Sean Ponder (quarterbacks/tight ends) Phil Cooper bas been brought on to w ork with the running backs, Mike Dodd will replace Taylor as the team's defensive coordmator, Rick Zumwalt will work with the defensive ends and linebackers and Carl Howard has been brought on part time to work with the running backs. •Welcome to Success U. , a.k.a Orange Coast College.

I realize that ivost coaches here are on the same page when it comes to theII ath· letes." Leading the Pirate grill was men's and women's volleyball coach Chuck Cutenese, with goU coach Gorclie Fitzel and soccer co-coach Laird Hayes assisting. among others.

Salt water fishing remains very good for anglers heading out to channel waters in quest of big albacore, huge bluefin tuna, yellowtail and marlin. The fishing scene continued to improve all week with the better weather conditions that allowed sport boats and private yachts to fish high spots around San Clemente Island and other outer waters. The weather could change to roughen up the seas for a few days, but the long range outlook for the remainder of the month looks like the seas will be cooperabve and those rough water westerlies will back off. Anglers on board the all-day boat •Thunderbird" enjoyed great albacore fishing earlier in the week. Steve Park landed a 39-pound longfin to top all anglers on board with the boat returning to the dock with nearly 100 albies. The charter bo.at Rising Star got into a couple of hot stops on the tuna grounds and that's the boat that Paul Russell of Costa Mesa and John DeWitt ol Huntington Beach were fishing on when they both caught several longfins weighing in the 24-to 30-pound class. According to spokesman Eric Wiethom at Davey·~ Locker, fishing bas been excellent all week long. •111e all-day boats have found huge schools of albies, while the •Freelance has been racking up good scores on cahco bass at Otalina Island,•. Wiethom said. Skipper Norris Tapp called in with full limits of calico bass on Sunday for all anglers on board in what was described as one of the best calico bass bites at the OU TDOOR S ilfll niemiec island in years with a full boil off the stern as the bass hit every bait that hit the water. Tue deluxe six pack charter boat Bongos III has been fishing albacore, tuna and yellowtail dally. · In ·action earlier this week, Captain Shariff Mohammed of Costa Mesa headed the fast sportfisher out past the 43 Fathom spot and nearly filled the boat with fish. Newport Beach angler Dick Swan was on board the boat and caughthundredsofpoundsof big albacore and many quality yellowtail weighing in the 15 to 20-powid class taken from under a floating kelp paddy. Bongos Sportfishing, based next to the Crab Cooker in Newport has limited openings on chartertripsforthoselookingto reach the fishing grounds in a hurry and be back to the dock by 5p.m. There is great albacore and bluefin tuna fishing available for anglers booking multi-day trips. The deluxe, long-range sportfisher, Searcher, operating out of Fisherman's _ Landing in San Diego has been returning to the dock with slammers full of tuna. and longtins. Captain Art Taylor is very optimistic about the remainder of the season with plenty pf fish stacked up in huge schools CLl l .S OC Cl a which are currently holding off Baja Norte.
