We were in two boats that belonged to Alex Oser -the Ameo One and the Ameo lWo. Alex had bought the two 35-foot Chris-Craft cruisers to spite a snoocy ,salesm~n, but that's another story. · Lindsay Youngblood, Sam and Charlie Oxarart and I were aboard the Ameo One, and we had )>ecome separat- ed from the Ameo 1Wo. For some reason, we were tow- ing a dinghy on a long line. Sam Oxarart decided he wanted to take a ride in the dinghy, so we pulled it up to our boat and Sam got in car- rying an oar with which to steer it. We started off again and Sam began to steer the dinghy in wide sweeps, much like water-skiers do. Finally. he took too wide a sweep and brought the dinghy even with our boat but still at the end of the longt line. The inevitable result was that his line became tan- gled with our propeller. At the same time, we were rapidly drifting toward shore -the shore being a rocky coast. We brought Sam back on board the Ameo One, and since 1 happened to have a knife -which was heavy enough to use m peel- ing abalone off rocks -I vol- unteered to go overboard and cut the line loose so we could avoid crashing onto the rocks. Before I began, I gave spe- cific instructions that if we came too dose to those rocks and I stood a chance of bemg squashed between the boat and the rocks. we were going to follow a certain drill. When 1 cut the propeller loose, I would come to the surface, raise my arms, and Sam and Charlie would yank me out of the water. When Lindsay saw that I was clear of the water, he would hit the Robert Gardner THE VERDIO starter button -but not one second before I was out of the water. Otherwise, I would be cut up by the propeller. I went overboard. The line was really tangled up around the propeller and I began · sawing away at the line. Every time 1 came to the sur- face, I would look over my shoulder and see that we were getting closer to the . rocks, especially one large one. U we drifted into that one, I would be squashed between the rock and the boat. Alex would also lose a boat, which he could afford, but I would be a goner. I finally cut the line loose just in time. I yanked off my face mask, dropped the knife, raised my arms over my bead, gave a big kick with my swim fms and shot to the surface. Sam and Charlie did their part. They yanked me out of the water and when Lindsay saw that I was clear. he hit the starter button and we zoomed away from the rocks without more than a few feet to spare. There was one small incl: dent that marred this other- wise smooth operation. The Oxarart brothers were so enthusiastic that they pulled me up about sue feet into the air and when I landed, I almost broke my nose on the deck. • ROllEKT GARONER is a Corona del Mar resident and former judge.

He said when he was young, the area suffered major earthquakes and he went to class wherever they could find a place. When my mom was in high school, the Long Beach earthquake leveled her school tha t was made of bricks. She had class in tents or out in the ope n where the school had once stood. Obviously, in the case of a dis- aster, we will all make do. If the school bu1:d doesn't pass. the school district won't dose up shop on June 7. But let's think about the long-term impact. How would you like to work in a broken building? That is what you are asking teachers to do. We know that many of our current teachers are going to retire in the next five yea·rs. Just imagine the disclosures that you would have to make as you try to hire a new teacher: 1. "Don't tum on the heater in your dassroom because toxic fumes might come out. We are working on getting a classroom set of blankets issued before win- ter comes.• 2. ·Keep one of your trash cans free to catch drips if the roof leaks.· 3. •Keep an eye out for falling ceiling tiles and try to give a warning shout to the student it is about to land on: 4. "The walls in this school are growing a lot of mildew, so stu- dents with asthma and allergies may have severe attacks. Get them outdoors as soon as possi- ble.• 5. "Don't bring in a fan to cool down your room, even if the win- dows don't open. 1f you do, it blows a fuse for the whole school.• 6. "We know that some schools in the district are nicer than oth- ers, but we want you to work in the one with the problems." I work in an office building with a permanent staff in charge of build.mg maintenance. The ten- ants expect a problem lo be reme- died in hours, not years. When the air conditioning was turned off so that a better model could be installed, the complaints went on all day. Most of our schools have no air conditioning and some have bro- ken heaters. For some reason, we have been willing to subject our children and our teachers to build- ing conditions that we would nev- er tolerate in our own home or workplace. Why are we willing to let them be in a worse place than we would want to be? If the bond passes, the schools will be fixed so that they will be safe in an earth- quake. All of the classrooms, wherever they are located, will be the same. There are a.bout 90,000 regis- tered voters in the district, but over ball of them won't vote in the election, because there are no national or state Issues involved. Of those that vote, two out of every three have to vote yes in order for school buildings to improve. Some people Will vote no, even though their property value will increase U we have schools in good repair with quality teachers who want to work ln them. It is predicted that 25,000 of us have to vote yes on June 6 in order tor the bond to pass. Will you be one of them or are you willing to have our local students go to school in tentlf • GAY I IA IAMMl'l"M h I eost. Mel,.....,,._ ... ~"""~ SM CM be rNChed by HMll et CicrSL , ..

Guess what? At the January 2000 meeting of the city's Fairview Park Committee, it was obvious that very few of your appointed members even knew about the paved roads. It's probably because the printed site plan of the Fairview Park Master Plan never shows any reference to the use of concrete and refers to these 15- foot wide asphalt concrete roads "multi-purpose trails." Who sees "trails" and think they would ever be made of con- crete? Also, since 1997 your chair- man of the FaWiew Park Commit- tee continually has been assuring me that Fairview Park would basi- cally be a continuation of the county's Talbert Preserve. Their trails are decomposed granite so why should ours be concrete? Finally, whether or not the citi· zens of Costa Mesa didn't cat.ch this in time isn't important. What is important is that not one person I have spoken to, and that number is in the hundreds, wants to see the trails turned into concrete. The City Council members, who were elected by these residents, should take notice and amend the master plan by keeping the trail system natural. TIM CROMWELL Costa Mesa Panther Palace story was in bad taste I find your article on the Panther Palace extremely objectionable material for your local newspaper ("The 'palace' guard," April 6). It has no saving merit in my opinion, and only panders to the immoral element of our society, which is becoming ever more widespread. Such material should never be placed in a local newspaper whose main function should be to in.form the local residents of note- worthy events and information. I note that you have four edltors in place to assure your articles have value.
