DREDGING UP SOME
FUNDS FOR IACK IAY
It looks like a little, or rather, a
lot of money could be on the way
for Newport Beach's dredging of
the Back Bay.
Last week, a Calilornia Assem-
bly Budget ENVIRONMENT Subcommittee
included a
$7.5-million request from the city
to help pay for the $31-million
project that's set to begin in 2003.
A Senate counter committee
hdd already approved the big
chunk of cash, which would help
secure a local and state match of
federal funds.
Newport Beach also is waver-
ing on whether it wants state Sen.

part by reading ·Duck m a

"The worst thing boys did
was to have a duck tail, and the
worst thing a girl could do was
to wear a two-piece bathing

Kids had harmless parties in
their vacation homes when their

Kelly hung out with her
friends at the beach. The Fun

dOd actually had some sand by
the bay.
"There was this one time,·
recalled Kelly, "I was sitting on
the beach with my friends and
this guy walked by. We knew
right away he was a tourist
because he was wearing shorts,
socks dfld leather shoes on the

The story ts still fresh in
Kelly's memory, as are the
nights she went dancing at the
Rendezvous. The parties and
kids never annoyed her, said
Kelly.
"Maybe it bothered my par-
ents,· she added with a laugh.
ENTER THE '605
But by the mid-60s, the inno-
cence and pure fun of it cill bad
been sucked out of Bal Week.
What was once a much antid-
pa ted event of the year
assumed a frightening appear-
ance, transforming itself into
the week from hell -a virtual
nightmare for the police.
Every spring break during
those years, the event was
marred by drunken brawls, traf.
fie gridlock and arrests that
filled up Newport Beach jail. In
1965, then-new Police Chief
Jim Glavas, made a record
1,000 arrests during spring
break -a time referred by
many as the "Easter invasion •
on Balboa Island.
Bal Week began to deterio-
rate after 1966, when the
Rendezvous burned down, and
ultimately ceased in 1971.
Newport Beach Police
Officer Bob Rivers, who patrols
the Fun Zone these days,
remembers the wild, not-so-
good years of Bal Week.
"It used to be a cool lhlng to
come out here,• he said . "It
used to be cool for kids lo cruise
around here.•
The traffic became so bad
that fire vehicles could not get
in to take care of medical aid
calls.
·Rivers came himsell in the
'60s, when he was in high
school
"There were kids drinking
and just hanging out,• he said.
·1 didn't get drunk or get arrest·
ed. but a lot of that was goi.ng
on.•
Though Bal Week ended as
a tradition, the spring break
how many times that kid
waves his arm, you're not
budging until that black
rocket shlp growls its way
out of the drive an.d into the
night.
Don't despair. For those of
you who can't separate your
rioting and brawling con tinued
into the late eighties. Rivers
remembers responding to a call
near the Pun Zone when sev-
eral teem got in a fight, shat-
tering store windows and bit-
ting one another.
"lbat one was pretty wild,•
be said. •But eventually we
pushed those type or crowds
out of ow d ty. We hav en't bad

emptiness, especially during
spring btealt.
Robert Woodbury, who
works for Newport Landing ,
Fishing and Whale Watching,
says he bas heard his grandfa-
ther talk about Bal Week and
th~ days when the Fun Zone
was really the fun zone.
•It used to be the real hot
spot,• he said. •But times have
changed."
There's a Lot more competi-
tion now, says Woodbury.
•At that time, this was the
only place to play games and
ride rides. Now there's Dave

"When it's spring break we

The spring break crowd is a

or college students.

PACIFIC SYMPHONY DOES STuUSS' 'DON QUIXOTE'
For many, knowledge of
Miguel de Cervantes' "Don
Quixote" begins and ends
with the popular musical
"Man of La M ancha." Lesser
known, but no less powerful,
is Richard Strauss' "Don
Quixote," an orchestral work
that reinvents Spain's dash-
ing Don into a solo cello.
On Sa turday, that cello
will be skillfully played by
Pacific Symphony Orchestra
principal cellist Tunolhy
Landauer, pictured, when
the Orchestra brings the
piece to the Orange County
Perfonrung Arts Center.
Landauer will be joined
by principal viola Robert
Becker, who will portray
Sancho Panza, Don
Quixote's faithful sidekick in
his adventures.
Strauss' musical work, to
be conducted by Carl St.
Clair, is divided into an
introduction, theme, 10 vari-
ations and a finale. The con-
cert. part of the Classical
Connections series, will also
include commentary on the
composer and lus music.

Since this rrught upset many

rather see their entire

compromtSe.
Take a Little off the top -say
10%, or $2,500 per $25,000
donation -and send 1t to the
donor's M:hool, m this case
Newport Harbor Then,
dtSlribute the remaining $22,500
between all the high schools.
The comprom1Se mdy differ
slJghUy dnd 1Jl51.ead send 15% to
20°/., of the money to the donor's
school before dwidmg it up.
Or perhaps dll the district's
schools shouJd be included m
the mix, and the money shouJd
be given to the Newport-Mesa
Schools Foundat10n.
In dny case, it has become
obvious throughout the nation
that "separate but equaJ" does
not apply to schools. Few schools
have identicaJ budgets. It's JU.St a
fact of life that isn't going lo be
corrected dny t1mC' soon.

AJI parents want their
students to be better off Lhdn the
next, but do those same parents
and studenlc; want to Live in a
society where many students
were not even afforded the
chance to succeed?
Imagine the consequences.
Make a chfference. Make
generosity generous. It's onJy for

In fact. the mtematlonal
version of the event fell into
financial disrepute and bank-
ruptcy and threatened to end
any dream of Newport Beach
becoming tho1 next Sundance
or Palm Beach tn fUm festival
drcle1.
Wh1l the organizers certainly ,
can't make that claim yet, what
they can daim ts that by
employing a narrow r and
more local focus. th re Uval ll
beginning to make wav .
And that'• a good thing both
for the festival and Newport
Beach, which recently lost its
long-running jazz f esUval to
lrvine.
Some 56 feature films and
100 shorts were seen this year.
And festivaJ organizers believe
thlS year's totals will surpass last
year's 20,000 attendees.
"I am extremely pleased at
all facets of the film festival,"
said the festival's executive
director, Gregg Schwenk. •111e
responses from the filmmakers
and commuruty have been
tremendous."
All that's left now is to
lmprove on what bas become a
good thing. More local screen-
ings, more publldty and more
word of mouth about the festi·
val within the motion picture
lndustry.
But after everything that
we've seen this year, we only
have one thing to say:
This 1how must go on.·

Greenlight is already doing its job
I n response to the DaiJy PiJot
editorial printed March 25
("Lexus stopped at Greenlight
in Newport Beach"): About
20,000 car trips a day have been ,
k ept off our city streets. Even
more congestion will be prevent-
ed m the future. Greenlight 1s
already doing the job 63%. of the
voters wanted.
Greenllght has also saved the
oty money. The high-rise office
bwldings that have been with-
drawn rather than face a vote
(would have) cost more m aty
services over lime than their tax-
es wouJd have produced, pnmar-
ily due to the high costs of thetr
traffic congestion.
Recently, the Daily Pilot gave
both prime front page and edito-
rial coverage to the anb·Green-
Ught statements of one out-of-
town Lexus dealer. He said 1l
was a factor in his deosion not to
relocate to Newport Beach, and
that was featured as the head·
line. This extensive coverage
was devoted to the wrong prob-
l em. The dealer had never deter-

revenues, why did a recent City
Counol pennit The Irvine Co. to
convert 200,000 square feet of
retail space entitlement to, you
guessed it, money-losing office
building entitlements?
The Lexus dealer situation
relpfotces the need for Green-ligh~ as it will make the city plan
ahead instead of react on a p~=eal basis to every devel· ol ent request. As 63% of the
voters have said that they wirnt

Rabbi Mark
Miller of Temple
Bat Yahm shares
the story of
PaS,Sover and its
ilJlportance to the
Jewish community
S aturday marked the
beginning of Passover,
the preeminent holiday
of the Jewish faith.
Passover is commemorated
with a celebration called a
Seder. These celebrations are
laden with symbolic foods and
prayers. Matzo is the main
food. ft's an unleavened bread
that symbolizes both the Jews
hasty exit from Egyptian
slavery and humility. Parsley,
Sdlt waler, a bone of a lamb, a
roasted egg, five glasses of
wine, including one for the
prophet Elijah , and ancient
prayers and songs are all part
of a P~ssover Seder. Rabbi
Mark 'tvf iller, the leader of
Newport Beach's Temple Bat
Yahm, sat down recently with
Daily Pilot Editor Tony Dodero
to discuss the holiday and what
it means to the Jewish faith.
What ls the genesis of Passover?
Passover is taught in the book ot
Exodus, the second of the five books
of Moses. which we Jewish people
caU the Torah. It 1s the Jewish
people's liberation from Egyptian
bonddge. The hrst Passover being
3.313 yea.rs ago And we've been
contmually observmg 1t, and we
haven't missed a year since. lt is the
beglnnmg of Jewish ndtionhood.
The goal of Passover is to liberate
ourselves from slavery to a human
master. Pharaoh, and exchange
lhdt for servitude to God, the
divine master.
How important of a ho liday ls It
for the Jew:lsh faJthl
Without Passover. we would not
have a Jewish faith. Because the
goal of Passover was not simply
leaving Egypt. The purpose of
Pdssover was really fullilled seven
weeks later when we dmved at Mt.
Sinai to receive the Torah. It was not
just a physical liberation, taking our
bodies out of Egypt, but 1t was a
spiritual liberation receiving the
Torah, the Commandments. the
laws. the teaclung, ethics. morals,
values, which have gUJded us for all
of these centunes smce Passover
was the opening note in Uus
symphony of free dom. Passover
Itself is a means to a higher end.
Of all the ho lidays, do you
con.sider It the most Important?
They all have their own
importance in their own way. But I
can say without Passover, we would
not be here today to observe any of
the others. One of the interesting
things about Passover ls that
throughout the Bible, the central
character of the whole Exodus is
Moses. But during the Seders,
Moses ls never mentioned. Why7 Tu
remind ourselves that tt was God
who brought us forth out of Egypt
and liberated us and not Moses.
Moses was merely the messenger.
the represE:!ntative. the agent of God.
It was God who humbled Pharaoh. it
was God who parted the waters. 1t
was God who brought us to the
Prorrused Land. We JeWlsh people
are very concerned With not
elevating a human being to a higher
status than a human being deserves.
Do you lh1nk ecumenical
ventures like the recent
Latino/Seder event ln concert with
the Catholic Church improve
relations and understandlngl
The more that we know about
one another, the more we appreciate
one another, the more we tear down
the walls of ignorance and bwJd
bridges of understandmg, the more
we respect one another. And I Uunk
Passover is a universal metaphor of
all peoples seeking liberation, s'eek-
lng freedom of one kind or another
Jt ls a story that is really told for au
peoples. Everyone can see them-
selves reflected in the eternal quest
for liberation from bondage.
Is Passover the Ume that
membenhJp in synagogues swell,
much Uke It does wtth Christian
churches at Euterl
I think that many, many people
celebrate Pdssover not only beCdU!>C'
of its message. but because 1t ll> d
family expenence and a home
experience. It ts a tune for in-gather-
ing. regathenng. reconnecting. not
only across ancient generations but
across generations from one's fdnuly
today. That holds a great attrdctJon.
so Passover is a very populdr fe!.tival
in Judaism.
Is the J ewtsh faith growtng, and
are you seeing more people co.me
to the temple these days?
I thmk I am seeing more people
d1sco~nng their roots. More J>C'O·
pie needing some stability m d very

realized she was grooming me to
take over. She had a plan of
preparing me to put me in that
position. That shows how much
she cares for the program. She
didn't want someone not knowing
what to do from the start.•
When Cutenese took over he
was pressurized Wlth maintaining
OCC's rich volleyball tradltion.
But, Hilgendorf never added to
the pressure. On the contrary. she
made the JOb a bit easier.
"She JUSt stepped back and let
me do all the work,• Cutenese
says. ·s he is by far the most
positive person I know. And as a
coach, I hope I have the effect on
the athletes the way Jane had the
effect on them.·
Just as the process or passing
the torch to Cutenese, Hilgendorf
carried over that mentality to her
work as OCC's athletic director.
She used her gift of mentoring
as her main approach to taking on
the job as Athletic Director. She
says she wanted to lead by
example and such IS her legacy.
I n 1970, OCC hired Hilgendorf
as a physical education teacher,
not a coach. She began coaching
the Pirates' volleyball program the
next year. When she first started,
the team was co-ed. She then
coached the women's team from
1973-91 as she compiled a
233-I 00 overall record and gwded
the Pirates to three state
championships in 1978, '80 and
'82.
·1 actually wasn't hired to
coach,· Hilgendorf says • 1 was
tured 1ust as a physical education
teacher. (The teachers then) were
generalists, not specialists. Over
the years, I taught archery,
bowllng. softball, tenrus. bad-
minton, track and field. volleyball,
fitness and conditioning.•
H ilgendorf's expenence as a
coach is a big cause for her
gratefulness today. She
remembers the days or traveling
in "rickety, old station wagons,"
Wlth the co·ed volleyball teams.
She laughs w hen she thmks of
the one time she used a swear
word while coaching.
·w e were losing to a team we
shouldn't have been losing to,·
she says. "I called a timeout and
said, 'Serve the damn ball 10 the
court.' That was the shortest
timeout in the world. We won the
match. That was the onJy time I
ever used a swear word.•
Hilgendorf also has fond
memones of the •great luds·
she coached and mentored.
Her influence not only fortihed
the volleyball program, but
brought strength to the athletJc
administration. She offers sunple

NEWPORT BEACH -There's sWJ a lot of
kick l~ in Wendell Sawyer, the president of
the Rotary Club of Newport-Balboa, but he
welcomes the Newport Beach Youth nack and
Field Championships for selfish reasons.
·we certainly enjoy working with the kids,·
Sawyer said. "It keeps us young.•
Sawyer, along with the rest of his club mem·
bers, worked around the clock, preparing each
event and manning stopwatches as the club
sponsors the event.
They were on also hand to watch the future
of Orange County track runners and field com-
petitors at Newport Harbor High Friday night.
"This gives us an opportunity to work with
the youth of the community,· said Sawyer, who
has been associated with the youth meet for
the past eight years. "I would expect that the
competitive aspect is the biggest reason the
kids are here.•
And Sawyer would be the first to admit, the
meet is really about the children, including the
boys who battled adverse weather conditions
to complete a day to remember for many.
The boys also provided proof to the old say-
ing: records are meant to be broken.
Michael Andreszczyk, of George White Ele·
mentary School in Laguna Niguel. finished as
the only boy to break two individual meet
records on Friday. In Division 90 (age 11),
Andreszczyk broke records in the 400-meter
race (1:05.7) and 800 (2:32.0). He knocked
more than thre~neconds off the previous best
in the 400 and be annihilated the former record
in the 800, finishing t 0.1 seconds quicker.
Mariners Elementary's Carlo Valdes. also in
Division 90, tied the meet record in the t 00
(14.1 ). He also won the 200 (30.3).
ln Division 88 (age 13), Zachariah Chandy,
of Corona del Mar middle school, also broke
two meet records. Yet, he completed one
record-breaking perfonnance in the 400 relay,
which included, Nick Lewis. Keith Calcagnie
and Ryan Maxwell. Chandy also broke the
meet record in the 400 (1:01 .6), besting Wood-
bridge High standout Michael Haddan's for-
mer record (1:02.5). Calcagnle tied the meet
record in the high jump (4· 11 ).
In DMsion 87 (age 14), Kyle Crisp. who is
actually 13 (he will be 14 in July). broke the
record in the l~ (12.7), more than a second
faster than the previous best. Crisp, or Alami-
tos Intermediate in Garden Grove, also com-
peted in the high jump for the first time in his
young track career and won with a 5-foot-2
clearance, which would've brqken the record
in the age-13 division.
Matt Williams earned the meet record in the
200 (26.55, 1.3 faster than the former record)
and just missed breaking the record in the 400
(1 :00.6) by 1.1 seconds, in Division 87.
ln Division 86 (age 15), Blake Allred, of
CdM middle school, closed out the record·
breaking perlormances when he woo the soft-
ball throw (209· 1 ), more than 14 feet of the pre-
vious best. ·
Alex Swigert picked up three first-place
medals in Division 91 (age 10) as he won the
100 (15.5), 400 (1:15.3) and long jump (10· 1 l).
ln Division 90, Colby Arn.merman also wore
three first-place medals at the end of the meet
wjth award-winning performances in the long
jump (11 ·11), high jump (4·2) and softball
throw (127-0).
Justus Gildart and Hunter Durante, of Divi-
sion 94 (age 7) finished as double winners.
Gildart won the 100 (19.7) and 200 (44 .5),
while Durante grabbed victories in the long
jump (7-0) and softball throw (68-7).
Rocky Keyhea also won two events In Divi-
sion 93 (age 8) when he earned first place in
the long jump (8-8) and softball throw (83·2).
In Division 92 (age 9), Andrew Roth was a
double winner with victories in the 50 (8.91)
and softball throw (118-4). nm Scott also won two events in Division 89
(age 12), finishing first in the 200 (31.88) and
400 (1:11.2).
Ryan Maxwell had a multi-winning effort as
well, with victories in the 100 (13.9) and 1,600
(5:53.0), in Division 88.

NEWPORT BEACH -Local youngsters
snuck in some running, jumping and throwing
before the rain came at the Newport Beach
Youth 'n'ack and Field Championships Friday
at Newport Harbor High.
Fighting a harsh wind and stinging cold
weather, girls, ages 7 through 14. competed at
their best as some came away with record·
breaking feats.
Despite a nagging pain m her right thigh,
Karina Van Leuven, a 12-year-old at Newport
Elementary, set a meet record in the 800-meter
race (2:40.0) for Division 89.
Before taking her mark, she was aware of
the previous meet record. 2:41 .0. and was
intent on breaking it. She had plenty of confi·
dence as she ran a 2:32.0 in practice earlier in
the year, she said. But, because of the pain in
her leg and the weather. Van Leuven received
extra challenges. She also earned a second·
place finish in the 200 and long jump.
In that same division, Nina Conrad of El
Camino Real Elementary in Irvine, broke meet
records in the 200 (29.9) and 400 ( 1 :09.0).
Kaiser Elementary's Carly Ruiz set a meet
record in the high jump (4-foot· 1) in Division
90 (age 11))to round out the record-breaking
performances.
Because the track meet carried on into the
night, Division 87 and 88. scheduled for the
meet's finale, featured just one competitor,
Courtney Hanson of Division 87 (age 12).
Among 8-year-olds, Milda Ny-Bron fl.rushed
as a double winner when she won first place in
the 50 (8.99) and the long jump (9-0).
Jazmine Rhodes was al.so a double winner
in Division 92 (age 9). She triumphed in the
100 (16.17) and the 400 (1:19.6).
Katrina Gaar completed a hat-trlck with
three victories in Division 91 (age IQ). She won
the 100 (17.19), long jump (9-9) and the softball
throw (78-5).
Sarah Toberty earned two wins in the 400
(1 :13.2) and the 800 (2:46.0) in Division 90 (age
11).
In Division 88 (age 13), Michelle Allred
came away with a trlfecta, scoring victories in
the 100 (14.1), 200 (31.3) and softball throw
(142.0).
The girls events also featured some photo-
finish-type action. Megan Crosson, of St.
John's Elementary, finished just seven-tenths
of a second ahead of St. Margaret's Ala.nnah
Boyd in Division 94 (age 7). Within the same
division, in the 100, Kyndol Craver edged
Crosson by one-tenth of a second.
Perhaps the tightest finish of the entire meet
came in the 50-meter race in Division 92 (age
9). The winner, Hannah Macleod, came in at
9.5 seconds, second-place Karoline Wang
crossed the line at 9.6, and Crystal Corrales
finished third in 9.7. Also in that division, Jas-
mine Beech (8· 10) squeaked past Rhodes (8·9)
in the long jump.
Yet another close race came in Division 91
where Gaar clocked a 17.19 in the 100, while
second-place Annie Markowitz finished ln
17 .3 and third place went to Tma Theriot in
17.5.
Monique Ballardo (34.4) finished just three·
tenths of a second ahead of Kelly Duncan 1n
the 200 in Division 90. And as if that wasn't
e nough, Kyleigh Harrison won the 100 (15.07).
five-tenths of a second in front of Paige Lynch
in Division 89.
Allred dosed out the dose-shave madness
with her victory in the 100 (14.1), six-tenths
of a second before Devon Keyhea in Division
