PTA President Denise Molnar, voicing the
concerns she has heard from various par-
ents. "Why did they push?"
Although he called the ongindl 365-day
construction schedule aggressive. Mike
Fine, the d1strict's assistant supenntenqent
of busmess serv1ces, said d1stnct ofhoals
believed they would have the new school,
scheduled to open Sept. 5 W1lh 350 students

"It was a very aggressive construction
schedule,· Fine said. ·Had we not had the
wmdow problems, Ill hindsight. we proba-
bly wouldn't have had it open Sept. l . It
probably would have been Oct. 1."
Responsibility for all three of the ma1or
delays. Fine said, falls on the Efco Corp., the
window manufacturer based in Momett,
Mo.
First, Fine said, the company didn't deliv-
er the windows when they said they would

arrived, the district rejected them because
they weren't right.
The company's promises of a timely
delivery and mismatched product have
ensured they will have no shot at being

schools are revamped with the Sl 10-milllon
school bond that was passed by voters in
June. Fine said.
The latest delay, whl.le the dlstnct waits
for the replacement windows to arrive at the
construction site, is to be sure everything is
completed before students and teadrers
move in, Fine said.

finishing a conversation with the woman

"Tius year, I've made a New Year's reso-

her the receipt.
"Really? Tell me what it is.l've already ·

I laughed again as I opened my front

rations waiting to be put away. I've been
working for days to box everything. but I
keep finding more. •
The hardest part for me is always
putting away all the colorful holiday cards
that decorate my walls and halls. We
received so many photo cards, and I love
being greeted by all the happy smiles.
Everybody who visits stops to look at them,
and I do the same at other peoples' houses!(
I loved visiting and being visited by fami-
ly and friends over the holidays. I enjoyed
the fun and good food. but I especially Jovi
the different times we shared about what
God was teaching us or .doing in our lives.
We all bad a mix or joys and highlights,
as well as some sadness or regrets. We
,shared a lot of laug~. as well as some tears.
But in each oonversation, it was dear we
were all thankful for God's love and faithful-
ness. I also 9ejlSed that we're eager to see
· what God has planned for us in the new year.
I'm pretty confident I can have my dec-
orations put aW&y long before Easter

The park, you may recent,
is a scruffy parcel of land(t '
about the size of two Disney-
lands, but that's just my
rough estimate. Running
'through FaiIView Park is Pla-
centio Avenue.
Several of the residents on
the south side of Swan Drive
have taken it upon them-
selves to annex portions of
Fairview Park, which is
owned by Cos~ Mesa. The
expanded property lines are
a few hundred square feet
each; except for one enter-
prising homeowner who
seems to have plans to gath-
er enough public land to
raise cattle.
It should be noted that not
all Swan Drive residents
have annexed public land.
The debate in town has
San J

WHAT'S UP?
been whether the residents
are doing anything illegal or
immoral or both since the
land they've grabbed is
rarely used by anyone. The
same Claim could be made
about the entire Fai.rvlew
Park.
On Monday, J made the
first of two trips to the land of
the scofflaw squatters to see
for mysell what the fuss was
all about. At 9 a.m., there
were six people in the park,
not mduding the members of
the radio-controlled gliqer
At 3 p.m .• I ventured back
out with my crack investiga-
tive reporting team, which
consisted of my wife, Cay,
my daughter, Bean. my son,
Roy. and his friend Kohl
Jones. We rode our bikes
over to the property Imes of
the Swan Drive homes and
began our uwesllgauon.
Here's what I learned:
1. The population of
Fairview Park tnples m the
afternoon. There must hdve
been 18 people in the huge
park Monday.
2. The homeowners who
have taken over the most
land -sizable pieces of
property -have filled 1t with
cheap plastic furniture. d

4. The crack team was
more interested in tossing

We came away with one
main conclusion we did not
think '4{as posSJble These
encroachers have actudlly
made theu annexations look
worse than the pdrk itself.
The curious part 1s that

CHOOSE YOUR HOUSE WISELY
When you are looking for a
ho.me. there arc some points you
should consider when making
your selection:
•Check the physical condition of
the property.
•Is the land area ~uitable, is it too
big or 100 small?
•What about the location-are'
shops. schools, doctors
convenient?
•Assess the interior design-will
the layout wort or can it be
modified to suit your needs'!
•Take into account your
furniture. but don't let it dictate
your decision.
• If the house has been renovated
recently. did the local building
department issue a pennit and
wau the worlc approved?
• Is there any development or
road construction planned for the
general area?
•Arc there tenants ~urrently

things-no house is perfect-but

Zorro and Scaramouche,
"The Scarlet Pimpernel,•
-oow rounding out a week's IHEl'ER engagement

Center, is a nostalgic experi-
ence, a return VtS1t to the
local Bijou.
While the swashbuckling
Is regrettably l.uruted to the
show's cllmactic segment,
the supenor voices of the
three leading Pfi!donners
make the wait decidedly
worthwhile. The story itseU,
now just four years from ltS
centennial, takes on
renewed style, Oou.rish and
vigor in director-choreogra •
pber Robert Longbottom's
handsomely mounted pro-
duction.
Based on Baroness
Emmuska Oray's tale of an
audacious and reckless hero
-a daring plotter who uses
tricks and games against the
cruelties of the F~ Revo-
lution -•The Scarlet Pim-
pernel• focuses on a brave
band of Englishmen who risk
theJr lives to oppose the
Reign of Terror in France
and rescue intended v.ictims
of the guillotine.
Their mysterious leader -
an English nobleman whose
French bride may be a col-
laborator with the enemy -
masks bis identity under a
gW&e of foppish mincing,
much like Zorro's Don Diego.
Oilly the Pimpernel's Sir Per-
c:y makes Don Dl~o look

Jn the cwrent production,
creeled by Nan Knighton

wrote• Jekyll and Hyde•
with Leslie Bricusse), there1
a good deal more pomp than

ties, to the utter dismay of

Looking . back is not
a good council trait
I t is, presumably, the hope of new council mem-
bers to take office with a running start. And we're
sure many newly elected officials are tempted to
redo some of the actions of their predecessors.
But that's a temptation they should resist.
While we understand the instinct to give 'projects
and policies a second look, and a third and a fourth,
there is a fine line between bring-EDIJORlll ing up new concerps and rehash-
~g old ones.
In reviving the debate over the skateboard park -
approved by the Costa Mesa City Council in October
by a unanimous vote -Councilwoman Karen Robin-
son and Councilman Chris Steel have.not put any-
thing new on the table .. .
Yes, there are safety issues. There may be an alter-
nate location to the site on Charle and Hamilton streets.
And there is always the question of whether such a
great demand for a skateboard park really exists.
However, piose points were brought up from the
r tery beginning -nearly 1 O years ago, when officials
first started tossing around the idea of a skateboard
park. Those points were still bemg hotly discussed in
October, when the prdject· passed. The dialogue will
probably continue when -and if -the park is built.
Robinsqn and Steel joined the skateboard park
debate late. They may have the best intentions in
reconsidering the previous council's °approval of the
project, but it still seems a little too much like polip-
cal posturing.
The skate park is an issue that a portion of the popu-
lation is passionate about. It is a hot-button ~sue with-
out being terribly complicated or too controversial.
Reversing the already approved park without show-
ing a new reason to do so is equivalent to scratching
open an old wound just to watch it fester again.
Furthermore, the city has already spent money
and devised the plans for the project.
So, review the park. Look at it -carefully -from
all angles. But instead of repeating the concerns that
have already been hashed and rehashed, find some-
thing that hasn't been brought up before.
And if there isn't anything new, look forward .
Questioning the decisions of a pas~ council is
sometimes ~ecessary, but repeating history is almost
always dangerous. Where does it end?
New council members are not elected to undo
what previous officials did in the past, they are voted
in for what they will do in the future. •
New co:mdl members should make their mark by
taking strong strides ahead, not by jogging in place
or, even worse, running in the wrong direction.
•vou can't tell whether it's good
bees or bad bees. A DNA test is
the only way to figure it _out. "

I feel that a skate park is not the
city's responsibility.
It should be a private industry, refer-
ring back to the days of roller skating
rinks. >
I do not think taxpayers' money
should be spent on a project that is
uncontrollable and would be nothing
but an added city expense.
I hope that they (council members]
will reView their thin.king on Uus pro-
ject and act accordingly.
SAM WAKELEY
Costa Mesa
My husband and I think that Ch4rle
and Hamilton streets is a bad location
[for a skate park). There is lots of traf-
fic; rometirnes it takes five minutes
just to pull out of our driveway.
Also, with the fast-food place up at
the comer. we already get quite a bit of
trash in our planter because 1t takes
about that long to ,have a taco and a
drink.
So we are against the (proposed
park site), also because of the safety
issue of children crossing the street ...
A woman who lives across from the
park site had mentioned her 9-year-
old would have a terrific time·at it,
but I seriously doubt that the 9-yea.r-
old is going to walk up to Harbor
Boulevard in order to cross the street
safely.
We are debrutely for a skate park.
We just think that there is a better
place for it.
The duldren m Costa Mesa defirute-
ly need a place to bang out and have a
good time, possibly Lyons Park or
Fairview Park. I know it's quite far out
there, Fairview Park. But again, with
the traffic and the woman already
being hit on Hamilton Street, it's just a
perfect example of why it's not a safe
place.
But the city does need additional
entertainment for the children and the
older kids who skateboard.
TIUClA LEUCX
Costa Mesa
Yes, we defirutely need a skate-
board park.
There are so few places that our kids
can ride. They're outlawed at all the
places where.kids enjoy riding them.
So I agree that we need one. In fact,
I think we need more t)lan one. We
need one down near the beach as well
·as up further in Costa Mesa.

responcting well to our motion tests
and from what we saw, it looked
like a neck sprain and possibly a
mild concussion.•
According to Ectison Coach Bn-

who decided to call the game at
that pmnt.
"It was a preseason game and
we were pretty shorthanded com-

goes. it was just one of those 50-50
plays. Hopefully, he'µ be all right.•

a solid wip for the Sailors against

"We've been working hard all

defirutely grow from,· West said.

After a sco1eless first half, New-

COSTA MESA -Ll.ke a volcano

Wreslhng Tournament Friday
night. Newport Harbor High's
Bruce Lim (119 pounds) absolutely
exploded. Meanwhile, Corona del
Mar's Blake Hacker (lpO) and
Estancia's Nathan Thaler (215)
were definitely active.
AU three won enough matches
to advance to today's semifinals.
The tournament actio,i begins at 10
a.m. in the Eagles' gym.
Lim, d 5-foot-4 seruor, was
unseeded m the tournament. He
burst onto the scene with a huge
victory over Magnolia's Uriel
Chavez, radked No. 2 in Orange
County. The win put Lim into
today's serrulinals.
"I 1ust want to come in here and
win 1t all,· Lun srud. ·nus IS the
first tough tournament for me.

In the second period, Chavez
went out with blood time and nev-
er appeared the same .. Lim increa~ his lead to 8-2. And, in
the third, Lim scored two more
takedowns and an escape for a 13-
3 victory.
Hacker's win to advance to the
semifinals lacked similar dramat-
ics. But, Hacker's performance was
sufficient. He scored a 12-7 win
over Vince Giordano of San
Clemente.
Hacker's first match of the day
was a bye, so he had to wait it out
before wrestling in round two at
6:30 p.m. He said he sat at Estanoa
since noon.
"I'm not myself today,• Hacker
said. "I'm just preoccupied with
other trungs. I haven't been
healthy. I need to find my rhythm."
Hacker entered the tournament
with a knee injury sustained in
football. He put aside the ailment
and took out Giordano.
Hacker ended the first period
..
with a 5-2 lead after a takedown
and a~ubsequept near fall. He con-
tinued to work ~n Giordano in the·
St'COnd with another takedown.
Giordano fought back, yet the peri-
od ended with Hacker still leading,
10-7.
Hacker was warned for stalling •
in the third and he scored a rever-
sal to dose out the match.
"I've probably given up more
points than I have all year," Hack-
er said. "I just didn't feel like
wrestling today.··
CdM Coach Gary Almquist said
what he saw was not the real
l-lacker.
•No offense,• Almquist said.
"But (Hacker) shouJd've ripped

After going toe-to-toe for two
periods, Thaler ripped his oppo-
nent in the c:hampionship round.
He pinned Ed Figueroa of Saddle-
back with 55 seconds remaining.,
The two went scoreless through
two periods. But, then Thaler woke
up with a reversal with 1 :30
remaining. He continued with his
move to throw Figueroa over ahd

"I felt him break," Thaler ·sru.d.

That's what (Thaler) dJd torught.
Hacker did the same with his'
injury. Those two and Lim, keep an

Estancia's Jeremy Valdes and
Victor Carmona were one match
away from advancing to the semifi-
nals. Valdes rrussed the opportuni-

wrestlers compete in the tourney.
His excitement is for the future
and he was pleased with Grubisich

first match 16-15.

nrates know that feeling of ~madness'
Tiat feeling of "March
Madness" began Thursday
or the Orange Coast Co~e
men's basketball team. So what lf it
wu an ugly brand of basketball?
The final three minutes of OCC's
win over Irvine Valley mirrored the
intensity of a Pinal Four game.
Yet, this ls January, but with the
competition tn the Orang Empire
Conference it might as well be like
March -toumamern time.

off its win over the Lasers, the Bucs
not only strengthened themselves
in the OEC standings, but t!tey ..
made believers out of their most
impOrtant critics: themselves.
WhlleotherOECteamsbave
received notice and rankings,
Orange Coast is in the background,
underrated because all the Bua
have IS Nack Burwell, as mAny
would think. ·
But, that ii .why tho 72·66 victory
over IVC is so hugo. Jt proved the
Pirates can Win when Burwell'•

they can go dOwn low And INlde to
Chad Hagedorn.
• OCC'a triple threet WW be much

Piates are definitely not
among the favorites. The
favorite? 1bat would be
Saddleback, the No. 3
team 1n the state.
The Gauchos are the
team to beat in the OEC
bocause they are old

The OEC also features
Fullerton. But. the Hornets

for the OEC title because

competition in the OEC should gtve

COSTA MESA -The Corona del Mar boys under-14
All-Star squad from AYSO Region 57 earned three wins in ,
four contests at last weekend's Costa Mesa Classic. held at
Estancia High.
The Sailors also had a familiar face back in goal, wtth
Burche ll playµtg his hrst game afte r his duty on the football
team. He posted six Sdves, including a btg stop off 9.0 Edison
free kick late in the game.
"He's our foundation back there." West said of Burchell.
•Duke's defense helps create our offe nse. It'll take a little while
for Duke to get totally comfortable back there, but you could
see he was finding it even in his first game back.· In the opener, CdM took care of Costa Mesa, 5-0. Erle
Stemler led the attack With three goals, while Kyle Jung
and Ajay Sahl added single tallies.
CdM's lone loss came at the hands of Garden G rove, 2-0.
Sah.i and Kurtis Luebke each had opportunities to score, but
Garden Grove was up to the task.
Corona del Mar rebounded and blanked Tustin, 5-0. Peter
Stemler bad two goals,• while Bob1>3 Schooler, Matt Storey,
Brandon Ballbeck, Tyler lance and Casey Flynn each added
assists.
In the finale against 11erra Santa of San Diego, two goals
by Schooler and one by Lance was all ~ needed in the
3-0 win.
The Sailors will try to ma ke it two in a row tonight at 7,
when they host crosstown rival Corona del Mar.
"It's going to be electric,• West said. "Playing under the
lights against CdM. It doesn't get much better than that."
