A2 Soturdoy, February 19, 2000 Doily Pilot r-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------, Gndy Trone Christeson MORAL OF THE STORY God will help us through the fear "The more we learn about the won- ders of our universe, the more clearly we are going to perceive the hand of God." -Frank Borman I. 've enjoyed hearing from many of you about last week's column, which contained entries from my journal on our recent trip to the Middle East. Many of you shared great stories about your visits there. as well as your eagerness to bear more about our trip. I will share more stories in the future, and I'm also more than happy to show my 12 rolls of {ilin lo any of you as well! When peop1e have asked me what was the highlight of the trip, I can only reply that the entire journey was one big highlight. U I did have to summanze what impacted me the most, however, I wouJd have to say it was the people. It was the people on our team, and it was the people we met. It was the people in the church, the men at the addiction-recovery center and the women who helped us shop. It was the people in the Bedouin vil- lage, the taxi drivers and the tour guides. It was the young men and women who told of their experiences fighting for their country and why they were proud to do so. We made new friends, learned about other cultures, spoke new phras- es, sang new songs and tried new foods. We shared our experiences and J..D.formation for strengthening Sunday schools, r.ecovery centers, technology and support systems. We learned that God's love is not lim.ited by language or land. We saw firsthand that cultures have individual ways of doing tlungs -not right, or wrong, JUSt dtfferent. We all have much to learn from each other. One reader e-mailed me to share a concern because l had expressed feau about the people m the Middle East. In case anybody else nusunderstood my intent, let me reiterate that the fear I referred to Weis not directed toward any culture or country, but was slDlply an admittance of my own fear of change and of the unknown. I wrote that I had the same kind of fear right before landing in California that I had right before landing in Cairo. The problem isn't other people or places; it's me. I I I I I I ..

The church began mformally in 1916 when a group of Christian Scientists started meeting in the bayfront home of Judge Leo Goepper. In 1925, the society made its formal applic~tion to the Frrst Church of Christ, Sci- entist in Boston, Mass. - known to Christian Scientists as the Mother Church -to be officially recognized as one of the worldwide Christian Sci- ence branch churches. The applJcation was grdflled in 1925. The new church was named Fll'St Church or Christ, Scienbst, Newport Beach. The first Sundcly service was held at 3301 Vici Lido on Feb 29, 1948.

These books are read at Sunday services by two readers, who are elected l:1y the mem- bership to serve a three-year term. The service includes an organ prelude, postlude and a vocal solo. Three hymns are sung by the congregation. The Sunday morning and evening services are alike.

Marr I I I I I I I I J I I I I I I I I .I Using a word from my childhood, there are times when I'm just a little "scaredy-cat." I admit that I get nervous about being out of my comfort zone, and that lS why I take comfort in the fact. that God will always be with me. --------------------------------~--------------------------------------------------------------------------------~ I closed the recent column by emphasizing that God was faithful on the trip, and that I know he will be faithful in the future. Other people are far more adventurous by nature than l am, but I know some of you have fears of the unknown, as well. It's helpful for us to be reminded that no matter what changes or unknowns are ahead, we have an unchanging God who knows the future. We also have a loving God, who is eager to walk through it with us. . And you can quote me on that. ---• ONDY TRANI!

Jenifer R•gland DAILY PILOT NEWPORT BEACH The Newport Dunes' revised proposal for d resort hotel lhat debuted at Thursday's Planning Commission meet- ing has, not surprisingly, received mixed reactlon,c;. · While . commissioners seemed unpressed with the proponents' effort to address ome of the project's critical issues, one opponent com- pared it to a bad experience at a used car lot. "It's like asking an insane amount of money for a car so the lowered pnce seems rea- sonable," sdld Bob Caustin, a local envuonmentalist and Dover Shores resident. "They're pldying a game as though this is some kind of Turkish bazaar, and instead of tak,ing what they're enti· Ued to, they're trying to see if they can run something past the people."

The commission had asked Dunes proponents to consider · relocating the· pro- ject to the other side of the lagoon and changing the entrance from Bayside Dnve lo Back Bay Drive. . Sharon W6od, assistant city manager, said commis- sioners eventually dropped both ideas. The east side of the lagoon is more environ- mentally semitive and would require the project's height to mc:rease, Wood said. And she said moving the entrance would eliminate 100 recre- ational vehicle parking spaces. "It appears they really went through their pro1ect to see where they could cut so it wasn't such a massive building," said Ed Selich, chair of the commission.

To help give the commu- ruty a better idea of the pro- ject's size, project developer Evans Hotels agreed to put up balloon displays marking its expected height and" width. Rather than the standard approach· of using poles or wooden sticks to ·simulate height, ~onunissioners thought the balloons would be more visible and more meaningful for people. M And for this big of a pro- ject, the poles would have to be engineered,• Wood said. She swd the balloon dis- plays should be up for sever- al days prior to the comrnis- s1on 's March 9 meeting, when the board will again ctiscuss the project. Key sticking points in the debate continue to be the increased traffic the pro- posed hotel will generate and how the new project compares with one already approved for the site. That project, developed in the 1980s, calls, for a 275- room family inrl with 5,000 square feet of retail and office space and 15,000 square feet ,of free-standing restaurant space, which NEW Tl !OUGHT CHURCH Sdp1et of Mind Onter !>.11 r.,b , 111t1i ~ YO\la Alo-CD.I R..,.

Only 2,400 of the onginal. 4,000 bips were hotel room- generated, he said. But critics of the project say the traffic study and the project's environmental report lack common sense and are "Very difhcult to digest. Causti.n said the Dunes should give up on the new proposal and stick with lhe old motel plan that was devised in the late 1980s and early 1990s. which he believes would be more attractive to vacationing families. But nm Qumn, project manager, continues to argue that the updated plan 1s Jar superior. ~A two-star motel may have been great 20 years ago, but I don't l.hink that's the type of project the city wants to have today," Quinn said.

Its goal i to teach students that the harbor belongs to everyone and not just those who hve at its edges, Brown said. Austin, who is Brown's son, began diving six months ago and has been an integral part of the new program at the museum. "I can only see about six inches to a toot in f'ront of me right now,• Austin told the children from. a depth of 8 feet. "It's apparently 59 degrees right now." The mteracbve diving program, whJch started in November, is part of a larg4 er school field trip to the museum.

No mcltter the outcome in South Carolina, many of those in the political arena are betting that Cahf omia will decide the eventual win- ner. Brewer believes McCain will spend about 80% to 90% of lus time between now and March 7 campaigning in Cal- ifornia. McCain supporters dro preparing for a main offensive starlillg Monday, when there will be a kickoff party at campaign headquar- ters 'in Tustin. · Although McCain has gained ground, be will ·be hard-pressed to win Califor- SHAW CONTINUED FROM A1 is a vindication ·or Judge Shaw. She never yielded in her faith that vindication would come." The report will be forward- ed to the commission's 11- rnem ber board, which will likely hold a hearing some- time in the next two months. Removal from the bench is the harshest penalty that could be rendered if the com- mission disagrees with the report's findings. Goethals said he is unsure if he will file a response to the panel's report. However, he and Shaw will most likely travel to San Francisco for the Marilyn Brewer nia, said Rep. Christopher Cox (R-Newport Beach). Cox, a loyal Bush backer · who has worked with the governor and his advisors, said McCain bas his work cut bearing. "I think she will want to address the commission,• he ·said. •she takes great pride in her job and she likes to look people in the eye.• Most of those who com- plained about Shaw's behav- ior were people appearing in her courtroom. She was criti- cized for a speecti she used in drunk driving cases where Shaw told defendants to "fly with the eagles or trot with the turkeys." What concerned the panel most was the offbeat remarks she made while sitting on the bench. In one case, Shaw report~y sang the chorus from a Chnstmas carol as two young men left the court- room.

"He doesn't have much time to tum it around out here,• Cox said. •1t looks very grim for Sen. McCain. When one looks at the total picture, there is overwhelm- ing support within the party locally for Bush: Cox says Orange County is primarily Bush country and said the candidate will prob- ably receive endorsement$ from the county's top GOP organi2ations. The percep- tion that Bush i:; losing his grip will not have an effect in California, be predicted. "Cahfornia voters are not weather vanes,• Cox said. "They won't flip-flop on whatever the weekend results are: There are some public defendant about being approached by other inmates wanting sex. "The safest course for a judge is to blandly intone the ritual words called for by the particular type of hearing and do nothing more," wrote the panel. "On occasion, she [Shaw) succwnbs to the aU- too-human foib1e of blurting out something that would have been better left unsaid." Shaw came under fire in 1989 when she purportedly ·made discriminating state- ments against Latinos. The same judicial· commission reviewed her case but she was cleared of any wrongdo- ing. The commission was investigating another allega- tion against Shaw, but her attorney said that has been resolved. The commission contacted · fugibve Sid Soffer, a restau- rant owner that lives in Las Daily Pilot off1cials who will wait to give their endor ement. Rep. Dana Rohrabacher (R-Hunt.: ington Beach) hasn't announced who he will sup- port or when he will make a decision. . Another cntical factor is the nwnber of appearances the candidates will make m Orange County. With the pri- mary night celebration schedule to be held in New- port Beach at the Sutton Hotel, Orange County could be the most important place in the state for Bush and McCain -although they will also have to appeal to voters outside the party because it is an open prima- ry. • Neither candidate has co.nf1rmed any local appearr ances. Vegas. Sort er claims he didn't receive due process when he was in Shaw's courtroom on building code violations. Sof- fer was convicted and the judge issued a $250,000 wav rant. · At his next hearing, aJthough his attorney appeared on his behalf --a major contention of Soffer's -- Shaw upped the warrant to no-ball status. Soffer said he was denied his right to coµn- sel and that alone merits another investigation. Goethals said commission officials have informed bun they will not purs~e the S6f- fer case "There is no way this is closed,• Soffer said. •u I'm not satisfied with the investi· gabon, I'm going to talk with the commission again. I would love to have the glory to bust her.~ As for Shaw, her support- ers don't expect her. to change the way she runs her court. But they do have some advice for her. •She needs to take a deep breath before she says some- thing that may hurt or offend someone," Goethals said. Randy J .

"It's just too hard to sing,• he noted, taking a small sip of coffee. DeMain, the artistic direc- tor for Opera Pacific, was kidding, but only slightly. "Manon Lescaut," com- ing to the Orange County Perfonrung Arts Center, really is a cliff•cult work for performers.

But DeMain's affection for the opera, Puccini's first major success, is undimin- ished by the challenges it poses for his performers.

But DeMain said Pucdnl uses almost the same sound in the love duet of "La Boheme," a work that was not perfonned until 1896. Or consider the use of the major 10th interval. In "Lescaut," Pucdnl intro- duces the 10th in an ind.den· talmanner. · . "It's just used in a way to show some of the whimsy of Manon,• DeMaln Said.

Tocbikubo as a result of a tragic accident ("Man dies after being struck by car," Feb. 10), but made little mention of the part this little man played in our community and his eruichment of our lives. In these days of celebrity and "dot-· com• success, it is often easy to overlook those who contribute to ow daily well-being and the fabric of oui civilization. "Johnny," as he was known to his customers and friends, was a gardener and resident of Orange County and our community for more than 30 years. He was a factotum in Corona del Mar, where his white truck could be seen daily traversing our streets. But he was more than "just a gardener." as many people knew him, and as l will describe to a l Of limited extent below. etter Johnny entered my life in THE WEEK 1988. I first met him shortly after I bought my home m Corona de! Mar 12 years ago. He served the owners next door and offered to maintain my yard at either one of two levels: stan- dard or beautiful ($80 per month). J chose "beauti- ful" and since that time (except for a brief period when we used "Gary who talked to snails"·-but that's· another story), Johnny has taken care of our yard. To my knowledge, his services were widely used, and he maintained many of the homes in Spy- glass and Corona d.el Mar. No matter how large his busmess grew. Johnny always worked incredibly hard'seven days a week, was always punctual and gave more than fair val- ue for his modest charges. In addition to the regu- lar maintenance, he would cheerfully do any extras asked o(him (sprinkler repair. prurung, weeding, fertiliZ:i.ng, cleanup. seasonal pldllting. etc.), and usually without extra charge. If he didn't have time for a big job during his reguldI lime slot, he. would·do it on tbe following weekend, commit- ting a portion of his Saturday or·Sunday. He would never make you wait. He was alway~ polite and thankful for any gen- erosity shown to him. Although he was diminutive in physical size -he was less than 5 feel tall and weighed less than 125 pounds-he worked alone and was stronger than men two or three times big- ger, He was in wonderfu! health; his family reports that during lus entire life, he never took any med- ications. As a final gesture, he and his fclJil.ily donated his organs so that others might live. Although I never knew his exact age (he had the energy of a much younger man), Johnny had just turned 66. He had been born in 1934 ind rural village in Japan, the oldest of nine children , five brothers and four sisters. His father always wanted to·come to the United States but was prevented from doing so because of World War U. After Johnny graduated from high school and trained for two years at a horticultural trade school, be emigrated in 1956 to the San Jose area as an agricultural worker. After a short time, he moved to Los Angeles as a gardener's assistant, but saw the potential in Orange County· and moved here to open his own gardening business. He returned to Japan to meet and marry his wife but came back to Orange County to live and raise ,. his family. He was a member of the Wintersbe.rg Presbyterian Church in Santa Ana and read Scrip- ture for inspiration before the start of each day. He also found the time to give a hand to his friends and family despite his businesscommitments. He is survived by his wife, three-sons and a daughter and three grandchildt:cn. He worked very hard and lived very modestly all his life, but p4t his children through college. He gave thetn lhe values and the example to be successful citizens of this country. He is buried in Pacific View Memorial Park in a grave overlooking the gardens and city he once cared for. We will miss him, but we should not for- get him.

A place for us to go to play tag football, fly a kite or enjoy a picnic lunch. need the cash, residents rightly became alarmed when they envi- sioned their park evaporating and becoming yet another housing development. In addition to being a community landmark, Balearic's 9.25-acre. site comes complete with soccer fields and a new playgrol.ind. For the last 22 years, Costa Mesa city officials have run a child-care and communi- ~nd it appears city offi~ials are more than interested in buying the park and preserving it for Mesa Verde. Mayor Gary Monahan has called for the issue to be discussed at a City Council meeting Tue~dpy. And there's every indication that no mat7 ter the price tag· -which no one seems to know at this point -the city will buy the park. And with cash-strapped cities and school districts being tempted to sell c;>ff park land to developers for big bucks, these small slices of heaven must be protected. One such case is Balearic Park. An' institution within the Mesa Verde neighborhood, the park's future recently became cloude~ as Newport-Mesa school district offi- cials announced plans to sell it as a ty center at Balearic. . Furthermore, residents argue the loss of the par~ would certainly lessen the value of their homes. With a $1.5-million budget surplus to play with, it appears funds can be fo\lnd for this worthy cause. So who's got the answer? <;:osta Mesa city officials do. .. means to raise. funds for the m.ainte- nance of school facilities. · By virtue of state law, school dis- tricts cannot sell property without first offering it to the city in which the parcel lies. And just like the city's recent and commendable action to pre- serve a baseball field at TeWinkle Park, this is a decision that would be worth, well, throwing a picnic at Balearic Park And while Newport-Mesa schools Irvine Co. retre.at good for roads, residents What a relief to hear that the Irvine Co. has withdrawn its request for a general plan amendment for a major expan- sion of Newport Center ("New- port Center first Greenlight casu,alty?" Jan. 28). That devel- opment would have added thousands of trips per day to the akeady near-gridlock traffic in that part Of the city. If this reversal occurred, as the Irvine Co. says, because of the Green- light traffic control initiative qualifying for the ballot, then H has achieved its first victory for the people of Newport Beach. . The Irvine Co.'s proposed · development consisted in large part of 9ffice buildings._ Office buildings produce no net rev- enue for city coffers, but they do produce significant local traffic. When the overriding quality of life issue for residen- liaJ neighbors is traffic, the only impetus pushing the develop- ment of office buildings are the profits of the developer. Donald Bren has negatively influenced our quality of life enough already. The retreat of the Irvine Co. is the best thing that could happen to our roads and our residents. 80,CAUSTIN Newport Beach School rankings don't always tell whole story After reading this morning's article ( H School rankings are bath bitter and sweei, • Jan. 26), I feel compelled to offer the observation that this infor- mation could have been reported in a more responsible . fashion.

NeWport-Mesa schools. Your failure to report the decile rating comparing each school wtth schools of similar ethrudly. socioeconomic condi- tions and mobility omitted a very important component of the story. This rating shows that most schools in our district rated very high when compared to sunilar schools statewide -even schools whose AP1 scores were not in the higher ranges. This score really compares apples to apples and demonstrates that schools in Newport-Mesa are all sucCEWdmg in educating our very diverse populations. Both Andersen and Whittier Schools (the highest and low- est scoring elementary schools m the district according to their API ratings) received a 10 rankffig when compared to similar schools. These victones are impressive and should be equaU)l celebrated. The Daily Pilot needs to fern ly report and applaud u~e suc- cesses of all schooLc; bdsed on theu very different challenges and stop companng unhke schools and groups of students. We all face challenges, whether it be making sure our students are receivmg an edu- cation swted to their needs or simply helping a new English- language learner have the courage to speak in a ldnguage he is just beginning to under- stc1.od1 much less be tested m. In my 30 years of tedclung, I have seen every type of stu- dent. The objectives all teachers share are the same -no matter in what school or grade they teach. We are all stnvmg to hypothetical questions: Balboa Island is already bumper-to- bumper with trdffic, as noted in U1e column, so should the city allow eight-or 10-story high- rise condos and apartments to be built on Balboa Island at some bme in the future?

Tony Altobelli . DAILY PILOT . PLACENTIA -It's a sound goalies love and goal scorers hate, -especially lll the middle of a playoff game It's the rlngmg sound pf soccer slamming off a goal post and for Newport Harbor, that sound was heard one time too many in Friday's 2-1 CIF Southern Section Divi- sion IT boys soccer loss. 1Tailing, 2-0 and with a free kick, Newport's hottest goal scorer, They Meek, npped a shot off the right goal post with 20 rrunutes remaining in the game. The Sailors scored shortly thereafter, making the unfortunate ping echo louder in the visitors' heads. For Coach Matt Wesr, howe'ver, bad breaks are part of the game ·and be acccepts that completely. #I tell you, we left it all on the field today,# West said. •There's no regrets. El Dora- do is a greaJ team and we expect them to go very far in the play<1ffs. • It's a pretty sohd expecta- tion considering the Golden Hawks are ranked No. 2 in OiVlSion 11 with a 26-4 record and have outscored their opponents, 107-25, this sea- son. Both teams were missing key players. El Dorado's Igna- cio Sid, who leads the team with 34 goals, did . not play because of an injured knee. His status for the Hawks' next playoff game is uncertain. Newport was without sophomore 1Yson Wahl, who was invited to the Olympic Developmental Program in Phoenix, Arizona. •we defirutely could have ):1Sed him today,# West said. •sut the team totally under- stands that he had to do what he had to do. It's a great opportunity for him.• . What was not so oppor· tunistic was the persistant winds blowing across the field at El Dorado High. The Hawks took the wind and downhill slope of the field and went on a relentless attack right from the opening whistle. After a couple of near misses, El Dorado's Ryan Valdez ripped a shot from a sharp angle. The shot deflect- ed off a Newport player and found its way into the net in the 13th minute, giving the Hawks a 1-0 lead. Fifteen minutes later, Valdez fed a nice touch pass over to Mike Hargreaves, who found the net, stretching the lead to 2-0. Newport also lost the ser- vices of senior Scott Perkins for a better part of the first half. He received a nasty gash to the forehead from an acci- dental head butt. Perkins returned in the second half and despite the injury, had eight headers and played tough. Goalkeeper Duke Burchell had eight saves, most coming in the Hawks' first-half onslaught. Finally, with the wind at the Sailors' back, Newport started gaining ~ome offen- sive momentum "We had to throw away any caution in the second half,• West said. After taking zero shots in the first half, the Sailors (8-8- 5) started gaining some ground. Hawks' goalie Danny Kennedy was called for luck- ing the ball outside of the goal area, resulting m a free kick. Before El Dorado could get completely et, Meek ripped the shot Just past the out· stretched hngers of Kennedy, but lll the way was the goal post. The Hawks cleared away the deOection and a golden opportunity was missed Kennedy was later charged with a yellow card for abusive language, setting up anothor Suilors' free kick.

Joseph Boo DAILY PILOT CORONA DEL MAR -It's been eight years since Corona det Mar High's boys soccer team appedred in the playoffs, but it played enough soccer Friday to ma~e up for lost time. For two and a half hours, The Sea Kings poured their souls into the ClF Southern Section Division IV first roWld game against visiting Dia- mond Ranch, and the Panthers did likewise. Forty mii;iute , 20 minutes of overtime and 20 mmutes of sudden death could not !>eparate th<>se two combatants. Instead, penalty kicks decided the outcome c10d Diamond Bar came out on top, 0-0 (2-0). ·we dld everything we could do,· CdM Coach Scott Dameron said. ·we played with emotion, we played with intensity, and for 4 minutes of overtime, we were still the pr · g tedm. I could not dsk for more. The game was as frustrating for Pacific Coast League runner-up CdM (10-7-1) as it was bard- fought. The Sed Kings had many scoring oppor- tunities, but they could not g~t the ball past Dta- mond Ranch goalie Daniel Hentges. "That was tough because l thought we were the only to team to create scoring opportunities," Dameron said. "We had a couple of chances m the second haH. Things just didn't fall our way." The Sea Kings' first great scoring chance came in the very first minute of the second half. The ball sailed into Diamond· Ranch's penalty box where CdM senior Jon Schrank awaited. lie was pushed down, but there was no call. Schrank's teammate Aldo Bautista came, grabbed the ball and got a shot, but 1t went wide left. The sophomore Bautista also had a header that hit the football goal post's crossbar that was a root over the soccer goal. But CdM' ~t opportunity came in a wild .melee in the 75th minute. . Schrank had the ball lil Diamond Ranch's pcndlty box and was confronted by Hentges, the sterling goalie, who wept to the ground lil talung the ball away, and he somehow kept Schrank from knocking in the rebound. Bautista then c~mc over along with several Diamond Ranch defenders, who kept shots from going in the empty goal. Bautistd collected his second yellow card during the scuffle, stopping play and forc- mg him from the game. 1 Icntgcs also came up big for Diamond Ranch in the final three minutes of regulation, when he came out and disrupted CdM's Spencer McDon- ald from getting a br~akaway shot. "There were times when their goalie pulled out saves from nowhere," Dameron said. "With- out him, they would have lost, 3-0. • Diamond Ranch, second in the Mi.ramonte League, improves to 12-8-3 overall. The Sea Kings' offensive pressure continued in overtune, led by a spirited Danny Marshall. Senior Mike PalazoUa had one CdM shot that got past Hentges but it just went wide. The Panthers had one good chance to win in the final minute of overtime, but Reed Glyer, who was omnipresent m CdM's defense and nudI1eld, cleared the ball. CdM's offensive pressure and strong defense meant senior goalie Cedric Chun only had to make one save after the first half of regulation. He was instrumental in breaking up Diamond Ranch's attacks, and finished with four saves. •All of our seniors played real well," Dameron Sdid. "Cedric came up big for us. Reed and Ethan (Austin) were two of our hardest working defE>nders. They won every ball in the air." CdM's last good scoring chance came with lhr«'e minutes left m sudden death, but Adam I foyt'i. free kick went high. That meant penalty kicks had to decide the game, and Hentges capped off his perfonnancc with two saves. CdM also tru.Ssed two shots and railed to score. The Panthers converted on their second and th1rd shot, with Chun stopping one. ·we did everything we needed to do," Dameron said, ·except for scoring a goal."'

ESTANCIA CONTINUED FROM 81 because of offside calls on the Eagles, then reached the back of the net in the 59th nunute to trigger a six-goal onslaught in the second half. ·we've done Uu.s all sea- son, •crenshaw said. ·vou can't hold us down. We have too many weapons on the field." After the Eagles led at halftime, 2-0, on goals by senior defenders Omar Navarrete and John Alderete, they turned it on late in the game. •If we keep playing soccer hke this, yeah, we'll go all the way, •said Crenshaw; whose team 'Will face Orange Lutheran m the second round Wednes ay. A coin toss today will termine the borne ·Nobody plays touch sot- cer like this team, -Crenshaw said. Followmg Mendoza's first goal on a nice cross from Juan Zarate, senior midfielder Jorge Lopez scored three minutes later on a beautiful chip shot from the left side. While on the run, Lo~z hit the angle perfectly, drilling the ball into the upper-right comer of the net for a 4-0 Eagle lead. Senior Martin Sanchez scored on a penalty kick in the 65th minute, then Men- doza provided the Eagles wtth a 6-0 advantage in the 68th minute on an assist from Fernando Medina ·vou're not gourg to hold Esaul back for too long, -Crenshaw Sdid. •He's going to get his goals." In the 73rd rrunute, Murillo scored on an open goal on a pass from Zafdte, as Northv1ew goahe Cesar Chavez (nine saves) came out to attempt a stop. Murillo was m the nght spot again rn the 79th minute, as he controlled a rebound and knocked in Estancia's final goal, after Zarate's penalty kick bounced off the left post. "It's going to take a team to stop us, "Crenshaw .said. "Every coach I talk to' says they haven't seen anybody play soccer like tlus. We con- trol the ball and don't let peo· ple attack on us. As long as we've got (the ball), we can't be hurt." Estancia recorded its 12th shutout, despite no saves by goalie I-Wario Arriaga, whose opportunitie~ were far and few between. The Eagles also won their 13th straight game, after losing to Santa Ana, 3-1, ~d tying El Toro. •The Times (Orange County) d.ld d oig article on us with pictures during the sec- ond week of preseason, and our guys thought they hit the big lime and the kids' heads got real big, and then we came out flat against Santa Ana and (the Saints) were pumped up,"Crenshaw said.
