Ten years of tilting at windmills is a long stretch. I've had a wonderful time and I think most readers have, too. Writing a column for the· Daily Pilot gave me the opportunity to nap my lips, so to speak. on scores or issues. More important, I had the privilege of coming to know some categorically wonderful people. There's the environmental Clock, the people who for decades have been defend- ing the bay, the marshes and the beaches from unspeak- able assaults. I can't mention them all, but I must make public my admiration and affection for such. crusaders as Frank Robuison, Jack and Nancy Skinner, Bob and Susan Skinner Caustin, Jean Walt and all the Stop Polluting Our Newport folk.

Alex Coolman D AILY PILOT During the time it took Todd Qµartararo to grab a quick lunch one day last week, he got 14 phone calls. Thirteen of them were about the Newport Beach Film Festival. Quartararo, the spokesman for the .festival, was happy to see sp much interest in the event; the only problem was that he wasn't getting paid to return those 13 calls. His ' •real• job, the one for which he actually is compensated, is al the advertising and public relallons agency of Quartararo and Associ- ates in Laguna Niguel. Like all the people who are help- ing coordinate the festival this year, Quartararo is donating his tim~ to somethmg he thinks is a good cause. The entire board of directors - 11 people -is unpaid.

The students had run the mile the week before. That, I remember. As the fifth-grade boys tested their flexibility, the girls played double Dutch and giggled. The occasional brave, little soul wandered over to check on the boys' progress, saying she could do better and gasping at the groans of *it hurts, it hurts." When it was the girls' tum to stretch, they obligingly squealed in supposed agony, although few of them had any difficulty reaching the mark. Next on the fitness test were push-ups. This time, the difficulty was much more genuine. There seems to be some sort of elasticity problem in children. No IOllY Munchlble lunc:tt ....... Dimon fruit ~ordlkbn ..........

U they didn't make it, they could try again in two weeks. The boys began with grunts, gyoans and lots of grumbling. I guess push-ups are difficult when you have skinny,· 10-year-old arms.

That is, until Carpenter told her that he could not count the push-ups if she was screaming. I'm sure that when she stopped expending that extra energy, the push-ups were much easier. At least half of the girls opted not to even try the push-ups, apparent· ly planning to bulk up in the two weeks before the makeup test. With the testing out of the way, the students were suddenly full of energy and life and went back to playing basketball and double Dutch.

There seems to be some confusion as to just who floated the first Cbrisbnas tree 8IOU{ld New- port Harbor. The very first floating Christmas tree was put on the harbor by the original Junior Chamber of Com- merce -the pre-World War n chamber -the existence of which came to a screech- ing halt on Dec. 7, 1941. That Junior Chamber of Commerce had three presi- dents: Bob Allen, myself and Cuba Morris. The first float- ing Chrisbnas tree occurred during Cuba's reign. Having come up with the idea, we >becked with the Forestry Department. They said we could have a certain tree, which had to be removed so that a road could be widened. A group of us immediately drove up into the San Bernardino mountains to fetch that tree. Gulpl We hadn't planned on quite that large a tree. We had in mind something about twice the size of a normal Christrnas tree. This one would have been quite at home among the giant redwoods. Cutting it down wasn't too difficult, but getting in on our small truck took some doing. Fortunately, Morris, a police officer, and Daryl King, a fishing boat operator, were the kind of people who can make impossible UUngs work. Somehow, by using ropes and pulleys while the rest of us looked on helpless- ly, they got the heavy end of the tree on our truck. The top of the tree rested on a dolly a vast distance from the truck. That took care of the length of the tree. However, its width presented a more serious situation. It would simply push any oncoming car off that narrow mountain road. So the rest of us climbed- into a lead car and went down the mountain, helpful- ly s}Wuting "Run for the bills I· or "The redcoats are coming I• except for one guy who kept repeating, "Repent! Repel'ltl • I think he had been drink- ing. We got dowo from the mountains without pushing any cars over any cliffs. And we got through San Bernardino without knocking over any buildings, although we had a close call making a .right turn on the comer where the Harris department store had its perfume counter. Going through Santa Ana Canyon -then a narrow two-lane road -we were not so lucky. A couple cars went into the river, but it was low and no one was hurt. When we arrived home, our next challenge was find- ing a barge large enough to handle our giant tree. Finally, King found a huge barge left from the big dredge of 1935- 36, and again he and Morris -by use of ropes and pul- leys -were able to erect the Robert Gardner ntE VERDICT tree. All of the members of the Junior Chamber, about 10 of us, rode along, singing Christmas carols. After World War D, a new Junior Chamber came into · being under the leadership of Dean Bradford. They repeated the floating Christ- mas tree routine, but lacked the •repent" guy, which took some of the spirit out of the occasion. • ll09ERT GAllDNElt is a Corona del Mar resident and former judge.

At the center of the script is a love story, as the film tugs at your heart for Guo Shaobai. the U.S. freelance reporter and photographer who always seems to wind up in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The film follows the life of Pitsee (played by Darya Volga), a young Russian woman who travels to New PLUG IN York to find her American lover and a place for herself and her unborn child. Her life is chronicled through a series of beautifully shot flashbacks of her childhood life in Russia, inter- cut with her. present life in New York. Here she meets friends and strangers who ultimately lead her to question her true reason for being in America. The film struggles to answer its own questions through the pop phi- losophy of Pitsee's OJ friend Dog Walker, played . by Sage, whose clever acting and trendy lifestyle yearns for more screen time. It is here that Pemberton's picture leads our sympathy into the insightf~ words of a OJ, instead of focusing on the struggle of a pregnant woman who flies halfway around the world to find nothing but an ocean of unanswer· able questions. Despite its shortcomings, it still presents a slight but sensitive portrait of a young woman lost in a turbulent world. • •Beyond the OciMn• screens at 8 p.m. today at Edwards Island 7 Cinemas.

Listen to former ·rnayOr's ideas A s a one-t:iJm! activist in Orange County's airport wars I have more than a passing interest in former Mayor Tom Edwards' recent proposal regarding the future or John Wayne Auport. First, I commend the Conner mayor for a creabve, and 1 believe workable solution. lf it is tried it will call the •b1uff• of those who proclaim that they want to curtail the growth of John Wayne while at the same time they profess to want to solve the county's di.r transportation problems. Yes, it is a gutsy call. It is not without risk. However, I challenge the · naysayers to come up with a bet· ter suggestion. And I might add that those who are in apparent opposition to the former mayor's proposal are the same people Keep' old theater open , a nd clean it Regarding your recent arbcle on the Edwards Theate r near Harbor and Adams (·Curtain dosing on city's old theater.· March 28), it is a great, large auditorium and should be a won- derful place to see premier moVles. We live nearby, but will not go there because the Cacllity is dirty (the restrooms are too filthy to use) and is in a horrible state of disrepair. The Edwards family builds fancy new places, but do not care about the olde r ones. Yes, I've complained to their operations manager (and they did send free ticke ts), but nothing changed. • If Disneyland can be neat and dean, why not Edwards The- aters? DALE BRAUN Costa Mesa Environmentalist salutes Glover Kudos to City Councilwoman Norma Glover, who said at the last council meeting that perhaps the city should look a t the possi- bility of living within its budget and not planning on having more money from new d evelopments in the future . New developme nts such as the Ne wport Dunes Hotel do bring in extra d ollars for the city budget, but a high cost to exist- ing residents. I think most of us would opt for a leaner budget instead of more trafHc, more den- sity and more people in our city. SUSAN SKINNER Newport Beach Community feels the loss of Hirsch The passing of Newport Beach's Clement Hirsch is a loss of enormous magrutude in the lire of the Orange County com- munity. Clement Hirsch was a giant. There are few men of such kind and ~erious dignity who pass through one's acquaintance and have such an impressJVe impact. Clement Hirsch was a gentleman of enormous propor-• lion. He was among Orange County's finest ciltzens. ln the decades that I had the privtlege to know Clement HlTSch, I expe- rienced an extraordinaty gentle- man who extended the courtesy of courtly and intelligent personal interest to so many who were hardly his peer, bu l were each ..

Secondly, Edwards needs to put some meat on the bones of his proposal. His idea ror a joint powers agreement is no doubt a good one. However, in that agreement should go some very restrictive language regarding land use around John Wayne, the general plans as they affect John Wayne from each partici- pant and a realistic commitment to solve the county's air trans- portation needs. The hammer to keep all of the parties honest should be the continued threat of an airport at El Toro. That .. may come about il the courts overturn Measure F, as I hope tha~ they will. Measwe F is a draconian law that will ultimate- ly hurt everyone.

The commit- tee, sponsored by the Board of Supervisors, went out, spent some taxpayer COMMENTARY dollars and wrote a report. · And then the supervisors shelved their work, never mentioning it again. Shame on them . Thirdly, Edwards' joint ow- ers agreement might cause the county of Orange to loosen its grip on the El Toro process.'The MAILBAG triumph of Measwe F is as much the foult of the county as anyone else. The county seemed to plan in a vacuum, where sug- gestions were apparently - unsought or ignored and the decisions of three people werC' left to carry the day.

He JlUlde those of us of far less stature and accomplishment feel important. Clement Hirsch was a busi- nessman of significant achieve- ment. He was a husband, father and grandfather of tremendous devotion. He was a friend of the great and the unaccomplished. He treated people, both mighty and humble, with a wonderful equality. I will long recall the day Clement Hirsch introduced me to the legendary Willie Shoemaker at Santa Anita. The great jockey extended a warm hand of wel- come and courtesy. How good that felt to be with Clement Hirsch, who everyone at the track esteemed and admired. C lement Hirsch was a man's man. He liked a good drink and a good cigar. He enjoyed a good joke. He knew a good horse. He was a natural with people. He made you feel welcome in. his home and in any social setting. Clement Hirsch was wise, charming, dashing, energetic and intelligent. He didn't surfer roots. b~t he was gpod to young people and to those far less fortu- nate than himself. He knew bis ·tn.ind and he w as not afraid to express it with candor and con- viction. He knew money and be .. knew its place. He was rich because of the love of bis family, far beyond the great fortune be so well earned. Count Clement Hirsch among American pabiots. He loved this nation and he was devoted to Orange County. Count him among the good men who have built what is good in our community. Someplace up there today, is a relaxed conversation of old fnends Wee Jimmy Dwante, John Wayne and General Tom Riley. Heaven is a better place today. Clement Hirsch IS there. THOMAS A.

Hendricks, who broke the school single-season rushing record with 1.477 yards in 10 games last fall, is ticketed for the secondary. He had a district-leading eight mterceptions at cornerback in tus only season at Estancia. He played previously at Edison. Hendricks, however. may return kicks for the South.

Tony Attobelli DAILY PILOT CORONA DEL MAR - Corona del Mar High baseball coach John Emme summed up his thoughts on a 16-15 win over Garden Grove in a conso- lation make-up game of the Foothill baseball tournament Monday. •That win should be dragged out behind the barn and shot,• Emme said. That statement·best reflects a game in which CclM (6·5)' allowed 12 hits, 15 walks and a nine-run fourth inning to the Argonauts and still managed to win. •w e hung in there, some- how,• Emme said. ·we fell behind by six and still managed to pull it out We wanted to gain some momentum heading into (today's) game with Laguna Beach and we did.

Bottom and Wes tman, who shared Defensive Player of the Year laurelS on the Daily Pilot's All-Pacif- ic Coast League team, will con- tribute muscle and determination to the South defensive line. •· Westman, a 6-3, 275-pounder, played tackle apd end for the Eagles, in addition to his dubes as a starting offensive lin~man. He earned All-ClF Division rx honors m his third varsity season and plans to continue his fqotball career at Orange Coast College. Bottom, a 6·4. 210-pounder, played end and tackle for the PCL ·co-champions. He was also an All- CIF choice in Division IX. The All- Star Game will, most likely. con- clude his football career. Bergey, who transferred to Dana Hills after starting at quarterback for the Sea Kings a~ a sophomore and juruor, is one of two quarterbacks who will trigger the South attack. A 6-3, 205-pounder with impres· sive athletiasm, Bergey was also a formidable defensive presence at safety for the Sea Kings and Dol- phins.

Presenting the Daily Pilot's 1999-00 high school girls basketball • CdM's Kristin McCoy tops six-player girls basketball unit as the Player of the Year. Bany Faulkner D AILY P\LOT Like the team she led to its first league championship in recent memory. Corona del Mar High girls basketball standout Knstin McCoy came out of nowhere in her junior season. Her ascension is now complete, after earning Player of the Year honors on the Daily Pilot's All-Newport-Mesa District Dream Team. McCoy, who missed most of her sophomore season with a badly sprained ankle, led district scorers at 15.l points per game. The 5-foot-7 forward also averaged 10.1 rebounds and gave the Sea Kings the confidence they needed to reverse years of struggle , finish 22·6 and reach the CIF Southern Section DiVlSion lli·AA quarterfinals. •Kristin is the ultimate complete player,• Cd.M's Elbert Davis, the Distnct Coach of the Year, said. "That includes diving on the floor for a loose ball, scoring and rebounding She leads the team m just about every statistical category.• McCoy's contnbution. which helped CdM win the Paci.fie Coast League, was best exemplified in a Jan. 13 game against Estanoa. After being linuted to three p0tnts before halftime, she exploded for 24 second-half points, hitting 10 of 15 field-goal attempts and leading her team from a 24-20 halftime deficit to a 55-32 win over the eventual league runner-up. Joining McCoy on the Dream Team are Costa Mesa repeat selections Autumn Smith, Jenny Earnest and Nancy Hatsuslu. Lauren Cassity, representing Estancia, is another repeat honoree, while CdM guard Charlene Quon rounds out the sue-player urut. South, a 6-0 seruor center. Led the Mustangs m scoring (12.1 per game) and rebound.mg (10.1) She also blocked 1 13 shots. tymg the school single-season record she set as a juruor, when she was Newport-Mesa D1Stnct Co-'Player of the Year. Smith stepped up her game m the playoffs, earrung Daily Pilot Athlete of the Week honors aftei; amassing 32 points. 27 rebounds and seven blocks m the Mustangs' two postseason victones. Earnest, a 5-8 senior wmg. averaged t 1.2 points, 5.7 rejJounds · and three steals per c~. helping the Mustangs reach the CIF IIJ,..AA quarterfinals and firush 18-11. ~ Hatsushl, a 5-4 Junior point guard, averaged 9 7 points, 6.2 assists -sl.Xth best 1I1 Orange County -and 2.1 steals m her thud varsity season Cassity, a 5-8 seruor whose tenaoty was second to none, averaged 12.5 points and provided strong leadership to the Eagles, who surprised many by hrushmg m the PCL, en route to a 17·10 cdIDpaign. Quon, a seruor, averaged 9.2 points. but was the dlstnct's most dangerous three-point threat. She canned 41 three-pomters to help prevent defenses from sagging on McCoy in the paint. Quon's three-pointer in the dosing seconds helped CdM defeat Costa Mesa, 41-38, in the PCL finale, clinching sole possession of the league crown.
