Was Irvine Avenue slick . with water? •Defense and prosecution attorneys debate whether sprinklers played part in fatal Newport Harbor High crash. By Christopher Goffard, Daily Pilot HARBOR COURT -What role city sprinklers played in the Irvine Avenue auto crash that killed one teen and injW'ed nine others seized the forefront at a preliminary hearing Thursday, with warring testimony about bow much water if any spilled onto the road before the May 23 accident. The claim the road was dangerously wet plays a key role in the defense o1 Jason Rausch, the 18~yea.r-oJd driver of the Chevrolet Blazer who now faces a felony vehicular manslaughter charge. Harry J. Krueper, the defense's accident reconstruc-Jason Rausch • tion specialist, testified Irvine Avenue was wet as the Blazer approached Heather Lane, striking the center median and flipping. Krueper said there was mud from the grassy median on the wrecked vehicle. Rausch, who was the designated driver as the vehicle returned from a party pecked with New- port Harbor High School da$51Mtes, could face six years in state prison if convicted. He faces one count of felony vehicular manslaughter in connection with the death of Donny Bridgman, 18, and two counts of misde- meanor reckless driving related to the injwiel of Dan Townsend, 18, and Amanda Arthur, 18, who suffered brain damage . While photos of the road ta.ken after the crash clearly show water stains, Deputy Attorney Gen- eral Jim Dutton labored to prove city sprinklen didn't activate near the intersection until after the crash, which OCCWTed less than 1 O minutes • SEE RAUSCH Pit.GE I .. t • I -1 ' r-• • j q J .. -., I .. > > - ' I ' -.. . .. .. -c I ~J ;.

NEWPORT BEACH -Sleep was likely difficult for the New- pOrt Harbor High football team's secondary la.st night, as the Sailor ~ensive backs pondered tenigbt's 7:30 CJF Southern Sec- tion Division V semifinal against vi.siting Santa Margarita. In addition to the prospect of f$dng perhaps Orange County's most prolific aerial combination i.ia Eagle quarterback Carson P.a.lmer and John Minardi. the f9recast of rain, to continue through tonight's clash, must b'ave been equally disconcerting. Be it a downpour, or merely drizzle, precipitation will pose fQ<>ting problems for both teams. But the edge will go to offensive p\ayers, who know when and -Where they plan to cut, while defenders react. Santa Margarita, unbeaten, top-seeded and the defending Division V champion, brings a 23-game winning streak into its fourth meeting with Harbor in the last two seasons. The unseeded Sailors (10-2 and winners of five in a row, but 22-point underdogs tonight}, have lost all three Santa Muyari- ta showdowns the last two sea- sons, including a 38-0 romp in last year's final at Cal State Fullerton and a 45-6 thrashing Oct. 2' at Saddleback College. Palmer, a 6-foot-5, 220- pounder for wb.&m many project an NFL future, has rewritten most of the school record book when it comes to passing and total offense. The Daily Pilot Sea View League Offensive Player of the Year has also enjoyed some big nifbts against Newport. ln three geines against the Sailors, he is 33 of 54 for 786 yards, eight touchdowns and only one inter- ception. That's an average of nearly 24 yards per completion. H8 bas also rushed for 53 yards and one TD on 11 carries. •The Colorado-bound Minardi, the Pilot Sea View MVP, has also made the Tars' career all-oppo- neot team with three prolific per- formances. He has 15 receptions for 482 yards (32.1 yards per catch) and has scored eight TDs. He caught three TD passes and rushed for another in the first meeting with Newport this sea- son, despite being hawked by ~rt senior comerback Brett Baker, who shares the county leed with elght interceptions. "M:inardi'I scoring catches against Harbor have been for 19, 68; 56, .49, 42, 38 and 20 yards. _,, Mesa take a hit •Mustangs suffer 50-22 spanking at the hands of host Bellflower squad. By Molly Yanity, Daily p;1ot BELLFLOWER -Height, speed and jumping ability are pretty intimidating factors in basketball and when you're intimidated, nothing seems to go as planned. The Costa Mesa High girls basketball team real- ized this in a 50-22 loss to Bell- flower in the second round of the winners bracket of the Mayfair- Bellflower np-Off Classic Thursday evening. The loss drops the Mustangs into a 6 o'clock game tonight at Bellfiower ~h. The Buccaneers, hocts of the second annual, 16-team event, pronounced their authority early in the game, even though Coach Mike O'Conner's team didn't really hit its rhythm until the sec- ond quarter. •They were definitely the better team,• Mesa Coach Shontel Sherwood said. •0n any night, they probably would be the better team, but we should have been able to score more. Twenty-two? That's not even a good half.• Bellflower, paced by the swift-footed, no-look-passer Odessa Jenkins, forced the Mus- tangs to commit 24 turnovers and allowed the guests just three field goals -the misses were usually matched up by Bellflower rebounders, as well. •we talked about rebounding before the game and I think we boxed out for the first four min- utes,• Sherwood said •The 1r:1ds were not only lnttmldated. but frustrated wiUl the offldal1 not calling over--the-back or contact on the dribble.

By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot WHITE CONTINUED FROM 10 plaques, black and white photos -memorabilia that tells a story that you can't hear by looking at the trim man with dark hair and glasses, the story of one of Newport Harbor High's finest athletes. In 1955, White set the national prep record for the fastest mile as be stole the California State title in that event. His time? A 4:20.0, a mark that wasn't touched for four years. •1n running (today), there's much more training and, to a lesser degree, the equipment makes a difference, the shoes and tracks," White said comparing the difference in times from then to today's. Prom the fall of 1953 when Todd White was a football player at Newport Harbor. A julilor, he was the •a" team's Most Valuable Player. Pictured, from left, White, the captain, Rudy Martlnez, Coach Vem Allen and nm Smith, the most improved player. •The training then was just getting to be scientific, but it wasn't as rigorous. We had just started to do interval training," he said. White was an all-around athlete in the 50s at Harbor. He played football, basketball and was a swimmer. His coach in the latter, Al Irwin, thought that be could really go far as a swimmer. But his gym teacher had a different idea. ·we had a decathlon in the P.E. class, something everyone bad to do. Well, I won that and won the mile. He thought I should go out for the team," White said, and the •he" to whom White referred was the Sailor legend, Ralph Reed. •1 bad to go tell Al Irwin that I was going to quit the swim team,• White said rolling his head back, seeming to drudge up the feeling he got when he bad to face bis coach. •oh, he was happy that I came up to him, but be thought I had a great future in swtmming .• White became Reed's diamond in the rough. •niat wu one of his favorite stories,• White said of the late Reed, "He was always saying how he ·~·me.• White became a cog in Harbor's winning track teams and also began an endeavor that led him to the Los Angeles Coliseum.

In bis sophomore year at Oxy, bis two-mile relay team notched the world record, while bis four-mile relay squad reestablished the U.S. mark. "Those are definitely fond memories," White said. "But they're not that important in that a lot of life has happened between then and now." After ()xy, White went to Long Beach State to punue a Master's Degree. It was there that he met lJnda, an artist who specializes in large, abstract oil paintings. They moved to Minnesota, where White earned a doctorate degree in psychology. After that, the Whites continued their eastward motion to Princeton, N.J. where Tod worked in manageme.nt training. Tod and lJnda have two grown children, Nadia, who ls a jouma1ist in Boulder, Colo., and son Stroller, who is working toward bis teaching cred.entlal at Chapman.
