There are 7 million.• -Walt Strelghtiff L ast week, I wrote about children needing plenty of time to play and to not be rushed through childhood. ·we can fast forward our musk and microwave our popcorn, but we can't huny up growing up,· a friend said. I mentioned that the "hurrying disease• is conta- gious. We parents catch it and pass it on to our chil- dren. · I saw a great comic strip that demonstrated this idea creatively. l'wo little boys were playing. They were looking down at each oth- e r's tennis shoes -one had shoelaces and the other Gndy Trane Christeson MORAL OF THE STORY boy had Velcro. The boy with Velcro looked down at tus friend's feet, shook his head and said, ·wow, laces. Where do you find the time?" I was aware of the hurrying disease when our daughters were growing up. Unfortunately, I exhlb1ted symptoms of 1t from time to time. One afternoon, after a busy day, our young daughter Kelly walked into her room with a handful or library books. She looked around her room a few times. I did too, to see what she saw. I couldn't see anything unusual. •1 sure Like my room, Mommy." she said, nodding. ·1 just wish I saw it more often: That's when I began praying for God's guid- ance. reading books about the "hurrying" topic and talking with other parents. One friend's advice was: "Listen to God, lis- ten to your children and listen lo your heart. Don't listen to society." Another described the ultimate Hawaiian vacation she'~ planned for her family. They swam, snorkeled, played tennis, and, as she said it. "Did the works." On the way home, she asked her son what his favorite thing w~ about the trip. Apparent- ly he didn't think long, smiled and said, "Mom, it was all great, but the best part was that you never once said 'Hurry up.'" "That sure wasn't the answer l was expect- ing," she said, "but 1t made me think, and after we got home, I looked at our schedules and made some changes.· She told me that sometimes less is more. That's when I began saying •no· to some of the wonderful sounding programs that were avail- able to our girls. That's when l decided not to schedule every spare moment of their days. I'm not against activities, but even too much of a good thing is still too much. Sure, I still overdid it sometimes, but parent- ing began to feel like more of an adventure of growth and discovery and less like a hurried exercise. I made a point of allowing plenty of free time for the girls to play alone, together and with me. Somehow I still managed to check off most of the essential things on my list. One day the girls each had friends over, and we went out to eat. When we left the restau- rant, the girls all started skipping. I stood there watching them and my watch, but thi;!n remembered what I'd been learning. l put my car keys back in my pocket and began skip- pmg with them. l got some unusual looks but didn't really care. In the car, Amy's friend said, "Wow, Amy, you are so lucky that your mom knows bow to skip. Mine doesn't remember." I still try daily to listen to God, listen to chil- dren and listen to my heart. Sometimes I'm sur- prised at what I hear. And you can quote me on that. •CINDY 1WANE OtlUS1ESON Is a Newport Beach resident who speaks frequently to parenting groups.

Doily Pilot Farm's grass weathering storm BRIEFLY IN THE NEWS Police make arrest in sexual assault at park • Once-troubled complex is dormant for the winter, but is holding up under recent rains, city officials say. Jennifer Kho DAILY PILOT COSTA MESA -Grass at the often-malign0d Farm Sports Complex has not been damaged by the recent rainstonns, said Bruce Hartley, a city maintenance employee. Although the grass is not grow- ing, it is weathering the winter nice- ly, he said. That's welcome news for the city, which has seen its initial $7.5-mil- lion investment to buy the park near- ly four years ago only slowly show its worth. The 18-acre Fairview Road park opened in July, a year later than planned and after a few agricultural {>roblems. In September 1998, the city seed- ed the park with Bermuda grass, which suffered miserably during a cold fall. In March 1999, a hardier breed replaced· the wilted Bermuda. It took the rest of the year to take, and when it went dormant for the winter, residents suspected a repeat of the first grassy miscue. But that hybrid Bermuda grass - the type normally used on sports turf -is supposed to be dormant from about November to April. The main threat to the grass is reg- ular wear and tear from soccer games, but the fields close when it rains and Hartley said city, staff monitor the grass for a day or two after the rain stops. That regular wear and tear also ran afoul of the park's neighbors, who last fall complained to city officials about noise from soccer games after the park opened. But even the noise problem has been reduced, said Betsy Dilsisian, one of the neighbors who said she suffered from the noise when the soc- cer season began in September. The noise has •gone down quite a bit/ Dilsisian said. "It's much, much better. I think during the weekend that they had opening ceremonies, they probably had more games and the crowds were pretty heavy. Now it is definitely a lot more palatable. Whatever they've done has been helpful, from my perspective any- way.• WAK.UNAGA KYO-GREEN Powdered Drink Mm Nalurol CGm6hdion of llalleg s C)!9 and Jt7Jeat Gnas"""' Fine a.Jore/la and Fine J{l!/p REG. VZ7. 75 5.3 oz. FARM FRESH PRODUCE Part ol the reason for the noise decrease could be that the regular fall-season AYSO Newport Mesa Region 97 games ended in December. The spring season will begin next month and last until May. Llke the soccer teams. the six fields at the site also take vacations. The fields take one-to two-month breaks on a rotating basis, leaving four fields open at a time to reduce damage. Hartley said the city makes minor repairs to the fields during their rest- ing periods, but saves any major repairs for the warm sununer months, when the grass is in its active grow- ing stage. •Normally, if the grass is actively growing, the rests give the fields a chance to recuperate,• Hartley said. "I! it's not growing, the rests just stop the wear and tear once the fields have been used as much as they can be for the season. You don't keep playing on it until it starts growing again. You give them a month or two off even though they're not growing much, then take time off to do repairs in the middle of swnmer. They are warm season grasses, so they only grow when it'~ warm, and that's when you repair them.• ~Pancak2 &: Waftle Mix == 8459 REG. '3.79 -......-~ 32 oz.

If the bill ~ as an urgency blJl, Which WOuld ~ a two-thirds majori- ty in bolh bollM!I ot the Leg- islature, it would beconie effective as IOOJl as Gov, Gray Davis mgns it -as early as uUdyear. If the bill falls to get that many votes and passes as a regular one, Jt would not becOme effective until Jan- uary. The tricky thing is that the transfer al property taxes frtm county to dty already takes about six months, with a planned anoemtioo date before Dec. 10, said Klft. Th.at means the city would not receive any property tax- es from Newport Coast until July and would have to front $1.15 million to cover ser- vices there. And that's the best-case scenario. If the bill doesn't become effective until 2002 and the d ty can't annex the territory until after the Dec. 10 cutoff date to transfer taxes, Newport Beach will have to fork out $5.25 mil- lion, or another year's worth of property tax.es, Kiff said. The money eventually would come back into oty coffers, he added. The bill originally w& intended to cover any situa· tion in which a dty without a local coastal program annex- es an amt that already bas QDe. However, city officials decided to limit it to New- port Beach, Ki.ff said Umiting the bill to New- port ~ch alone would probably not reduce the nwnber of legislators voting in favor of it, he said , "There are lots of bills like this that pass each year,· Kitt said, adding that the d ty wasn't asking for special privileges.

Mary Elizabeth Braddon, who wrote the sensation novel •t.ady Audley's Secret,• and Ann RadcWfe, author of "The Mysteries of Udolpho,• are two prin- cipal figures. •There's this amazing history of women writing crime novels,• Briggs said. Today, Grafton, Paretsky and Muller are considered to be the forces changing detective fiction. They each raise quest.long. about crime and justice, each TITUS CONTINUED FROM A 10 resentment before she utters a line, waiting impa- tiently for Winslow to get off the phone and on to her sit- uation.

The situation escalates, and the actors increase their grip on the audience as the play builds to a shattering, physical climax.

Tony Altobelli DAILY PILOT LAKE FOREST -The momentwn of the game changed as often as Friday's helter-skel- ter weather. In the end, the result was doom and gloom for the Corona del Mar High girls water polo team, which fell, 7 -6, to Laguna Beach in the CIF Southern Section Division IV semifinal at El Toro High. "I thought we outplayed and outshot them,· CdM Coach John Vargas said. ·we just didn't outscore them.• The top-seeded Se~ Kings (19-12) were led offensively by Sophomore Daniela DiGiacomo and senior Malia Tarayao, who each scored twice. Senior Lindsey Daley and sophomore Christina Hewko each added single tallies, while sophomore Danielle Carlson sparked the offense with three assists. It appeared Corona del Mar was going to make quick work of the Artists (23-6), scoring three goals on its first three possessions. ·we were able to take some high-quality shots throughout the game,• Vargas said. •w e GIRLS WATER POLO just started to rush everything, causmg us to miss some easy opporturubes. • Daley got CdM on the scoreboard first with a nice backhand shot in front of the net just 42 seconds into the contest. Following a Laguna Bead1 turnover, Hewko took a nice lead pass from Carlson and made the score 2-0. On CdM's next possession, Tarayao placed a long shot into the upper-right comer of the goal. Three shots and three goals in just three minutes of work. The Artists, who defeated CdM twice earli- er this year, settled down and ended the quar- ter with goals by Tina and Teresa Codioi, as well as Laura Case to tie the game. Tma Codiru. who led the Artists with three goals, scored again to QlVe Laguna Beach a 4- 3 lead 1ust 30 seconds into the second quarter before DiGiacomo tied the game on CdM's ne~ possession.

SPoRTs Spreading the word· • Even with seven returners, Estancia baseball team is working hard to attract more athletes to the program. Barry Faulkner DAILY PILOT COSTA MESA -Since he teaches across town at Costa Mesa High. Estancia baseball coach Doug Deats has neither the time nor opportunity to recruit players on the Eagles' campus. So, he merely lined up someone who can. Estancia football coach Dave Perkins, whose son A.J . will be a Junior infielder for the Eagles, has been recruited to, well, help recruit. The early results are the promise of potentially enough players to field two teams, a luxu- ry the program did not have last spring. "He's not Casey Stengel, but he knows baseball," Deats said of the elder Perkins, who grew' up loving the game in the now- defunct Harbor Area Baseball program. "He's been out (at prac- tice) for a week and he's done a great 1ob. He has a great rapport with the kids." Amon'g Perkins' recruits are senior football standouts Andy Romo and Jeremy Valdes, who can rely upon excellent athletic ability and work ethic to help brush off the rust of not having played baseball at least the last two seasons. . ln addition to the newcomers, Deats welcomes seven returners from ldsl year's 9-14 squad, which finished 2-10 in the Pacific Coast League. Deats, last year's Daily Pilot Newport-Mesa District Coach or the Year, will count most heavily upon seruor Armando Ortiz. The four-year varsity performer earned second-team AlJ-PCL lau- rels as a junior, when he hit .320 (24 for 75) and scored 19 runs. He'll play shortstop when not pitching and Deals is leaning toward making him his leadoff man, to ensure the maximum number of at-bats. A pitcher more than a thrower, Ortiz logged 651/3 innings last spring. He was 4-6 with a 4.39 ERA and struck out 45 while walking only 12. Brent Davis, a senior catcher, will also see some mound duty, though Deats said he has limited pitching experience. NEWPORT CONTINUED FROM 81 laym and a Greg Perrine three-pointer, one of his three conversions from long range, pulled the visitors even and energized a fired-up Harbor rooting section with 6:36 left in the third period. 0ut, a MacGinnis three-pointer sparked the first of two 9-p third-quar- ter runs for the Splutans, who advanced to Tuesday's semifinals. Newport, trailiiig, 55-41, heading into the final period, even.tually fell behind by 21, before scoring the final eight points to cut into the lead and punctuate a noteworthy campaign. The Sailors were only the third team in the school's 71-season varsity history to top the 20-win plateau and only the third Harbor team to win two playoff games. Tony Melum, a 6-6 juruor, collected 11 of his team-high 19 points after halftime and also finished with seven rebounds. Having scored 518 points in his second varsity season, he will lead a solid nucleus of returners next year. Senior guard Aaron Varna! will not return. He finished his prep swan song with 12 points, hitting 8 of 11 free throws to help the Tars drain 14 of 20 from the foul ~e. Perrine, a junior point guard, had 15 points and tied Melum for team-high rebounding honors, while Pajevic, a 6- 8 sophomore, continued bis late-sea- son rise.

"He has a fastball, curve and change- up and he's learning every day.# Davis is also tentatively slated for the No. 3 spot in the order. He hit .284 last season with two homers, six doubles and 18 RBis. Senior Justin Lund is the early favorite to assume the cleanup spot. He hit .304 (21 for 69) with 10 RBis as a junior center fielder, but could also be utilized at third base this season, Deats said. Junior J.D. Goff will start in the outfield after hitting .288 and scoring 12 runs as a sophomore. Along with Romo, an All-PCL running back-receiver, Goff pro- vides some speed, which Deats plans to utilize. "We'll run a little bit," said Deats, who believes his team lacks the power to hit the long ball. "With the new bats (they can be only three ounces lighter than the length of the bat, as opposed to five ounces last season), We may not hit many homers. We hit five last year and we may drop to zero this year.# DAILY PILOT FILE PHOTO BY TAYA KASHUBA Estancia High's Armando 'Ortiz (9) goes high to make a play. A.J . Perkins, whom Deats also credits for helping convince some of his peers to lend their talents to the team, is back after starting all but one game al second base last season. He had 14 hits and nine RBis last year and could play sec- ond or third this spring. when he hit in tough luck (six hits, but only four strikeouts). He could hit second in the order. Juniors Jordan Hart and Casey Gates are additional returning starters. Hart, who had 15 hits and six RBis as a sophomore, will play first and also provide a left-hand- ed arm to the pitching staff. Deats hopes Romo, who played baseball as a freshman, can devel- op quickly enough to play second base, allowing Perkins to shift to third. Valdes, as well as his brother Mitch Valdes. a ju(lior, should help out in the outfield. Deats has praised both for their positive atti- tude and willingness to work. Gate~. who played third last season , will spell Ortiz at short- stop when the latter pitches. He scored nine runs last season, •As long as I can have 12 guys chomping at the bit to get to the field every day and improve, this will be a fun season,# Deats said. "I think 1 have that this year.# points, five assists, three blocks and three rebounds and with continued progress, could join 6-7 freshman Jamie Diefenbach on a formidable front line of the future. Senior reserve Steve Young, a starter for much of the season, scored six points, including a late three-pointer. Egkan (16 points) and Phaler (13) joined MacGinnis in double figures, while 6-8 junior Brice Prather added nine points and blocked four shots fo r the winners. The Spartans hit half their field- goal attempts in each of the first three periods, before finishing 7 of 10 in the fourth, despite some wayward shoot- ing by the subs. In addition to the three-pointers, Villa Park netted six field goals from outside 10 feet. includ- ing third-quarter connections from 19, 17 and 15 feet. ,, Of' DMSION I-A PLAYOFFS QulltWflnal VIUA PARK 74, ~HAMOR 61 Score by Quarters Newport Harbor 8 19 14 20 • 61 Villa Parle 17 15 23 19 • 74 VIII• P•l'tl -MacGinnis 22, Egkan 16, Phaler 13, Prather 9, Stankan 7, Miiier 3, Waldrip 2, Herrera 2. 3·pt. goals • MacGinois 5, Phaler 2, Egkan 1, Miller 1, Stankan 1.

Daily Pilot Thinking of Myrhen Paul Myrben, one of the five backs who stabilized the backfield of the championship 1942 football team at NeYlport Harbor High, and one of its unsung heroes, bas drawn salutes from old friends in recent weeks. Former Newport Beach Mayor Ruthelyn Plummer recalled a visit with Myrben and his daughter, Ruth Ellen, last November as a grand and interesting time in Indianapolis. They were mates in the Class of 1943 as was his friend on the 1942 grid outfit, Bill Neth, a star lineman who later played for Santa Ana Junior College with Myrben and made first.team all-state. Neth, a one-time Los Angeles Times distributor, said he and Myrhen became friends when they ficst met in the c;ixth grade. •He was a friendly guy and a solid teammate at both Newport and Santa Ana one year," Neth said. "In fact, he was one of our leading scorers at Santa Ana.• In the recent past, another friend ~ported that Myrhen had sustained 'several slight strokes, but Plwnmer said, •He is very well preserved and looks just fine." Myrhen had two brothers, Emil and R,alph, and the~owned a landmark service station that carried the family name. Neth also noted that the Santa Ana team the pali' played on in 1945 was an undefeated team under Coach Bill Cook. Neth recalled fuat Myrhen left Orange County after the Santa Ana grid season in 1945 and went back to attend Hope Col- lege in Michigan. He subsequently moved to Indianapolis and never returned to California. Myrhen left his mark on the history at f;;farbor High in Don Contrell SIDELINES another way. He was a fine photographer and took all the football pictures in 1942. One friend indicated that he may well have taken more or all pictures for the school yearbook. lWo of his most notable photos featured scatback Johnny Ikeda and the late Vernon Fitzpatrick who played at quarterback. One report four years back was that Myrhen turned out to be a sports official and later an insurance agent in Indiana. "(At Harbor High), he was a hard-hitting runner, like a fullback,• Neth said. Some recall that he alternated at tailback with Ed Miller, who was a different kind of runner with track speed. Neth, who has a sharp memory of yesteryear, said most of the running in 1942 was conducted by the late fullback Harold Sheflin, who became All-CIF, and Fitzpatrick. Blocker Lorrie Langrnade played as another rugged back and alsQ made the All- ClF second team in 1943. This com er once read a long speech that Myrben had written years ago. We assumed it was written to spark up insurance agents since it was a highly positive mark of craftsmanship. Neth remembered that Myrhen, who lifted weights when at Harbor High, served in the Navy during World War ll, then turned to college at Santa Ana. Neth recalls that it was interesting to note that Myrhen and he spent all four years in the same classes at Harbor High. He described Myrhen as a solid running back who stood about 5-foot-9 and weighed 175 pounds at Santa Ana. His prep alternate, Miller, in time, became the District Attorney for San Diego. •Paw and his daughter showed us the highlights of the city (Indianapolis) last Novembe.1, including the properties that were my mothers family farms in the 1840s," Plummer said. •A highlight was a tour of the magnificent old Vtctorian home of the late Hoosier poet, James Whitcomb Riley. It was special for me because my grandmother, an lndian4poUs native, was a drama teacher and we learned to recite Riley forwards and backwa.rdl. • In addition, Plummer said a.be and one of het sons, Cley SmJth, Jr. attended o Rodng lnduttry 'nade Show breakfast tMt honored her late husband, Clay Smith. for h1s • contributions to auto racing.

With the game tied, 2·2, Blfchfield hoisted her body among the masses and managed to send a header into the net. helping the Sailors win, 5·3. for the first playoff wm m school history. • "Since I don't mind playing aggressive, I get to play up front on corner kicks,• the Daily Pilot Athlete of the Week said. "I knew the game was tied and I was saying to myseU, "I've got to get this one m the goal.' Taryn (Ramson) sent a perfect kick to me and I managed to get a head on 1t."
