By Husein Mashni, Daily Pilot
NEWPORT-MESA -A securities firm
being sued for $5.4 million of the Newport-
Mesa school district's losses in the 1994
Orange County bankruptcy denied Monday
that it did anything wrong.
The school district contends Rauscher,
Pierce Refsnes Inc. was reportedly advising
Orange County officials at the same time it
was working for the district. The finn then
encouraged the school district to sell $46.9
million in bonds, then invested the money in
the Orange County investment pool knowing
the pool was shaky, the suit contends.
The sale of the bonds, the district contends,
helped temporarily prop up the county's fail-
ing investment pool but ended up costing the
district $5.4 million after the pool collapsed.
"The district's actions are to get Rauscher
to pay for the money it lost in the pool,• said
Jennifer Driscoll, a spokeswoman for lnterra
Financial, the parent company of Rauscher,
Pierce Refsnes Inc. I • l ~Rausch went too fast, witness says I l l
I
I I I I
"They're trying to recoup their losses, and
we feel it's unfortunate that they're looking to
Rauscher for that because we don't feel
r~nsible."
Driscoll said the company's defense against
school district's allegations is two-fold. First,
Rauscher didn't work for the county until after
the school district had made the decision to
sell the bonds. Secondly. Rauscher's work
with the county was limited to price consulta-
tion.

•Preliminary bearing began Monday in case of driver in
fatal Newport Harbor crash.
By~ Goffard, Daily f;#ot
HARBOR COURT -A passen-g~Jn the Chwrolet Blaier that
craslied in May toht driver Jason
Rausch to slow down three times
before the vehicle flipped., killing
one tl9eoager and injuring others,
according to testimony Monday.
Ai Rausch's preliminary hearing
got under way, Erle Freeman, 19,
testified he was tossed •pretty vio-
lently• from side-to-side as he sat
in the luggage pit of the vehicle
moving around the s-curves on
Irvine Avenue.
. As •the Blazer approached
He(lttu:l"'Lane, jU&t before the auh,
•1 could feel we fiete going too fast
to make that curve," Freeman said.
Rausch, 18, was the designated
driver ot the Blazer packed with 10
Newport Harbor High School stu-
dents as it returned from a party
just after midnight on May 23.
Rausch faces one count of felony
vehicular manslaughter in connec-
tion with the death of Donny Bridg-
man, 18, and two counts of misde-
meanor reckless driving related to
the injuries of Dan Townsend, 18,
and Amanda Arthur, 18.
Police say Rausch was speeding
but 4llege no alcohol ~ against
him. H SuPetior _ Court Judge
Everett w. bicker decides evi-
dence presented at the pMlimtnary
hearing warrants a triAl. and if
Rausch is convicted. he could face
six years in state prison.

"We believe we have absolutely no liabili-

ities to the district," Driscoll. said.
Driscoll also said Rauscher bad no "spe-

Orange County investment pool
But school distnct officials are standing by
their case.

West Newport homes still drying ollt after Sunday flooding
9)1 Jennifer Annstrong, Daily Pilot
WEST NEWPORT -Phil Car-
son awoke Sunday morning to
see a shoe floating by his bath-
room.
By Monday afternoon, his
house at 44th Street and Balboa
Boulevard was still drying out.
The standing water had finally
washed down the storm drains,
but his blue carpet still squished,
his cream sofa still bore a water-
line stain, and everything in his
TV cabinet was still dripping.
•I was bummed," said Car-
son, 23, who moved in just a
month ago. "I'm from San
Clemente, which is built on a bill
-this never happens there."
His landlord, Charles Cole-
man, said the duplex last fiooded
in 1992.
Coleman spent Monday call-
ing crews to clean up the mess,
making plans to buy new carpet-
ing -and wondering why the
dty didn't do more to stop the
floods.
•The dty made a mistake,"
said Coleman, who has owned
the building for 10 yea.rs. "They
were late getting out here.• '*
City offidals said areas along
Balboa Boulevard and on Balboa
Island present a conundrum this
time every year: They have to
close the tide valves· when the
tide rises.
But that can close off
drainage, which means flooding
during heavy rain.
"It's an area we have to start
draining immediately,• General
Services Director Dave Nieder-
haus said. •There's nothing you
can do. It's basically flat, and
there's nowhere for the water to
go."
The flood-prone areas would
stay dry if they had reservoirs or
pump stations -but those items
are expensive and aren't high on
the city's priority list.
"We're trying to do things like
replace 40-yea.r-old street lights
and other things that pose much
greater liability,• Niederhaus
said. •some flooding did get into
some homes that were not sand-
bagged, and we have some
angry residents. But there's only
so much we can do.•
Resident Shawn Houshmaud
Is high school th~ place
to take business 101?
said he recognized that no one
could have stopped the flooding.
He and his wife stood at their
glass doors and watched the
water rise up the sidewalk, pour
into their house fit 43rd Street -
and eventually fill their living
room a few inches deep.
"We didn't know about this
when we moved in a month
ago,• said Houshmaud, 28.
·we're probably going to move."
The Issue: we asked
readers ff they are happy
with the San Joaquin. Hills
toll road, which Celebrated
its year anniversary recet ttly.
-1 I do use tlle f01I road. I thfDk ifs
: wonderful. It's a great conve-
' nience. However I use it at off-' : peak hours just for the convenience
• sake and I'd like to see the tolls I • adjusted as are the tolls on the River-

side Freeway based on the time of
day that you are using the toll road.
I'm happy it's available and I will
continue to use it whatever the situa-
tion is.
SUSAN SPllUTUS
Newport Coast
Since the decision makers of the
toll road can't figure out why the
average number of drivers is 45%
below projections, they must have
missed the class in business school
that consumers must have value for
their dollars. A $2 toll at peak traffic
time might be a value, but at off-peak
time it clearly is not. Wise up and low-1
er the off-peak toll.
SUSAN SKINNER CAUSTIN
Newport Beach
We have taken the toll road once
when it was tree and once for pay. We
have a daughter in Mission Viejo and
would use it more often but we just
don't go on it. If all of the three toll
roads were connected in someway, we
would buy a FasTrak membership and
use all three of them more often. So,
other than that we don't use it.
SAD.ARA MKADAM
Newport Beach
I think the price is wonderful. I
think it's a very convenient vehicle for
all of us to use when we're trying to
get to South County or people from
South County to North County. It's
probably one of the best things to
happen to our community in a long
time.

Ask parents in this diltrtct
who have c:b1ldren at the high
school level about inltrudion in

that it bu been common for par-

children who are reading at

who appear to be completely
lost1
Unfortunately, there was not a
school board member present at
our last Harbor High School PTA
meeting (the board meeting was
the same night). Perhaps the
nods and groans from parents
would have opened your eyes.
Parents who have been actively
questioning instruction in basic
skills for years were not sur-
prised when the reading results
were read aloud -they were
already aware. How embarrass-
ing that this
problem is so
prevalent.
When my
husband and I
moved to this
community
nearly 10 years
ago, I asked
the elementary
school principal
about diagnos-
tic testing. I was told that our
district does not give any stan-
dard diagnostic tests.
Surprl.sed, I asked how I
could possibly know where my
child stood in academic achieve-
ment (knowing full well that
report card.I were not an accu-
rate measure). She did not have
an answer for me. Finally, in
1996, our district began to use
the C'I'BS and the truth came
out. Whether we switch now to
another diagnostic test ii almost
irrelevant. Pind a decent diag-
nostic test and use tt to imple-
ment curriculum u well u help
children improve their skills.
I am also tired of hearing that
the non-English speaking popu-
lation encompasses the lower
end of the reading scores. This is

the bs~ulation than the non-

The recent Newport Harbor
High reading
scores al.io
show that there
are very few
kids in the mid-
dle. So, for the
privileged few
who happen to
"get it,• a
future may be
bright. The bot-
tom 40%-50% are in dire need
of remediation. Without a strong
middle group, how do you pro-
pose to deliver a standard high
school cuniculum?
Where do we bsgin? Remedi-
ate the consequences of •whole

buio..to a11 children. Use diag·
Dostie tests to evaluate progress.
Evaluate teachers on a regular
bull (another issue that needs
immediate attention). Begin
ongoing articulation between
elementary and middle and high
schools. Before the most recent
staff development day on Nov.
10, board member Judy Franco
announced that it had been 11
years since Ensign and Harbor
teachers bad met about curricu-
lum issues. These two schools
are one block.apart, but evident-
ly they a.re light years apart in
oommunlcaUon.
Finally, there are people who
care about these issues" and are
willing to do somethtng. Julie
Chan, director of currtculum. has
started the ball rolling by apply-
ing for grants at the elementary
level.
Thank God for Allen Muceri-
no, principal at Ensign, who sees
these problems for what they are
and bas made many strides
already with articulation and
reading labs. The same goes for
Bob Boies, principal of Newport
Harbor, who planned to imple-
ment a reading course before
any of this was made public.
Thank God also for Betty Rec-
cow, a retired elementary
teacher who •did her own
thing• and taught phonics to her
studentl at Newport High when
tt wasn't in YOgUe.
Al a result of most teachers
using whole language methods,
phonicl is now taught at Ensign,
and will soon be taught at New-
port Harbor
It's time for the school board
and the district office to agree
upon some common goals and
get to workl

)eoe1ved a letter from str~
.telling me that one ol the big rea-
sons for the succea ol entrepre-
neun in the 1960'1 wu that New-
port Beach was •business friend-
ty. • He particularty pointed out
that our then-City Manager Bob
Wynn •ma<te sure that the anti-
businea gadflies of the day were
kept \Dlder control"
He al.lo said that during the
period from thelate 1940's
ihrough the 1970's, Newport
Beach was also the birthplace of
world. He named Dick Richards,
Don Koll, George Argyros and
Don Bren. I would add John
·Lusk, Hadd Ring, Tom Hender:
,son, John McLeod, George Hol-
iitein and Charlie Hester as a few
)nore who would presumably
-egree with Pete that the business-
'friendly dty government of the
time was very helpful in their ear-
1y careers.
But the part of bis letter I liked
the most, being an over-age
beach bum myself, is that Pete
sa'5 that in the 1960• Newport
was populated with •a very
eclectic group of artists, ship-
wrights, real estate and stockbro-
kers, beach bums, o.rtilans,
abalone divers, international
yachtsmen, some very beautiful
women and a few movie stars.•
He continues, •1 remember

room Plazi Miller, John Wayne,
Don Vaughn, Hevs McClelland,
Hobie Alter, Jimmy Maag and
Boris Allenin, the abalone divers,
Jim Kilroy and Hugh Kelly and

I would add that all he needed
to make that night's attendance at
the Chart House really represen-
tative of the more interesting peo-
ple in Newport Beach at the time
would be Andy Devine, Dick
Shaw, Virgil Partch. Tom Keevil,

-Costa Mesa-roster -lacks
the marquee player.
By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot
COSTA MESA -For the first
time in the 1990s, the Costa Mesa
Jiigh girls basketball team will
not have a marquee player.
Kalena Jackson was to assume
the leading role held in previous
years by Oll~a DiCamilli,
Heather Robinson and last sea-
sons's Newport-Mesa District Ptayer of the Year, Koo Kim.
But Jack.son transferred to
Newport Harbor, leading third-year coach Shontel Sherwood to
caunt on a blend of experience
and youth to mesh into a bal-
Miced unit devoid of a go-to play-

' •we don't have any super-itars, • said Sherwood, who also

would like to
see more bal-
anced scoring.
We won't have
anybody score
30, unless they
play out of
their mind. But
we could have
a lot of people ~ood in double fig-
ures.
• .Kim, now attending the Air
Poree Academy Preparatory
School, will be tough to replace.
The four-year starter averaged
14.3 points, 5.3 rebounds, 5.1
assists and 3.4 steals in her final
J>rep campaign, literally and figu-
ratively running the show for
Sherwood.
: Seniors Kelly Chapin and Julie
Collett, both 5-foot-9, as well as
~-8 junior Evelyn Powers, are the
leading returners, averaging a
Combined 14 points per game.
: •They can all play guard or
forward and we're counting on
their leadership to help keep us
calm.• Sherwood said. •(Collett)
Will score more and (Chapin and
powers) can definitely score.•
Taline Siekeldjian, a 5-7
senior, is another returner who
Will contribute, but Kim's point
guard rpot will be assumed by a
combination of 5-8 sophomore

Sherwood. laid of Earnest, whom
she laid won MVP on the junior

she's eamed her spot.•

•She can shoot th~ three-

By Richard Dunn. Daly Pilot
CORONA DBL MAR -Late 1n the
game at the end of a timeout, Corona
del Mar High boys basketball coach
Paul Orris and his counterpart, San
Bernardino's Andre Smith, h~ged in
front of the scorers table, a quick ges-
ture of respect but also a display of sym-
pathy for whoever would fall victim in

• Estancia downed in opener,
73-60; Eagles are relegated to
the consolation bracket with
Thursday test against Lynwood.
By Barry Faulkner. Daify Pilot
NEWPORT BEACH -Estancia High
boys be.sketball coach Rich Boyce was
hoping to see just where his team stood
Monday night in the opening round of the
Daily Pilot Tip-off Classic at Newport
Harbor High.
Tums out, it was about where he
thought, which is far from where he
wants the Eagles to be.
Sonora, coached by Corona del Mar
High alumnus Mike Murphy, earned a
73-60 triumph, outscoring the designated
hosts, 24-10, in the second quarter to
claim a 41-25 halftime lead, then aui.sing
home.
·1 thought we were tentative and
Sonl:>ra is a very good team,• Boyce said.
•Call it first-game jitters, but I just don't
think we were mentally ready. We Just
didn't come out and attack them. And
when you let them attack you, you're in
trouble."
The Eagles appeared in trouble in the
opening moments, when Sonora bohed to
a 5-0 lead in just 63 seconds.
But Estancia, keyed by the steady play
of senior Air Poree Academy-bound San
Nelson, roared back for 11 unanswered
points, before their leading nemesis -
turnovers -allowed Sonora to weather
the storm.
Estancia committed 17 of its 25
turnovers before intermission, and Sono-
ra 's hounding defense was largely
responsible.
The Raiders, keyed by San Diego
State-bound senior Jeffrey Berokoff, who
p<>ured in 26 of his game-high 39 points
m the first two periods, scored the final
two baskets of the first quarter to claim a
17-15 lead.
And, while Estand.a went nearly five
minutes without a field goal to start the
second, the Raiders had opened a 27-17
cushion.
The Eagles never got closer than eight
the rest of the way.
•Berokoff is a lot better than I remem·
ber, • Boyce said. •1 think when our guys
saw he had 26 at balftime, they weJe
embanused. But we played harder 1n the
teeond half .•
The 6-foot-4 Nelson flnilb.ed with 23
points and 11 rebounds, while M senior
Gavin Rainey netted all 11 of bis points
after halftime. He also co1lected seven
boards.
-"" Seniors Ryan Simpson and James
Dawkins chipped m MVen points apieoe
for the Bagles.

~ at 5 o'~
year, bald on Ughtly Mooday ntgbt to
defeat vilUlng San Benwdino, 4M7.
CdM blitzed the Cardinali early with
... 2-1-2 press, but San Benwdino adjust-
ed, then used a tough tun-court pre11 ol
b own to pull within two (25·23) at half·
time, after being down. 21.·9.
The Cardinals eventually caught
(33-33) and pueed c.dM, taking a 37-36
lead into the fourth quarter. But CdM
outlcored them, 12-10, in the final period
to win.
But it wasn't that easy.
Senior forward Ryan Franke sank two
free throws for the Sea Kings with 1:12
left in the game to give them their 48-4 7
margin. Both teams had plenty of scoring
o ppoitw:Uties iri ffie finaT 60 seconds,
Including chances at the line, but the
score never budged.
Even at the final buzzer, San Bernardi-
no's Teirell Carter launched a desperation
attempt from half court that slipped off
the rim.
•'Jbat was dead on.• On1.s said of bis
lbot attempt that would've won it for the
Cardinals.
CdM, which plays the tounvm>ent'1
Lucky Loser, Aliso Niguel. on Wednesday
at 7:45 p.m., opened strong in the fourth
quarter as 6-foot-9 senior center Alex
Jekeli, an exchange student from Ger-
many, took over underneath.
Jekeli's putback to start the fourth
gave CdM a 38-37 edge it would relin-
quish one more time before it was over.
Teammate Ryan Cooper added a reverse
layup, then Jekeli scored after another
offensive rebound to increase CdM's lead
to -'2-37.
i.ater, San B~111
points) scored on a putback to cut Cd.M's
advantage to 44-43, then the Sea Kings' nm Thurman made a layup with 3:09 on
the clock for a three-point lead.
But the Cardinals wouldn't quit.
