Council candidate
Ovls Steel stunned the
community with a resounding
victOf)' at the P<>lls. leading all
vote-getters in the 11-person
, field.
But the election of Steel,
who had long railed against
illegal immigrants, local
charities and the city's job
center on the Westside, did
something else.
It caused editors of this
newspaper to stand up and
take notice.
No longer was Steel an
amateur on the fringe of the
Costa Mesa political scene. He
was the political scene.
Along with him came all of
the Issues he had dredged up,
not to mention worries by
many community leaden;·
publicly and privately, that the
fires of community discontent.
and at times bigotry, were
being st<*ed to red-hot
tempernunts.
Nowhere Is the evidence of
this more clear than In the City
Council O\amben.
With Steel's election and, to
some extent. the election of
polltial newcomet Karen
Roblnlon, the cooncll has
become a lightning rod for
agents of change, many of
whom helped push Steel to
victOf)'.
The activists have used the
public lectern night after night
to make their case to the
captive audience that Is the
City<ouncil.
Again, we took notice.
And this time, we sent
reporter Jennifer Kho to find
out just what these activists
want and what makes them
tick. What are their concerns?
Do they have agendas and, If
so, what are they? And what is
their ultimate goal?
We learned they have a lot
to say, a lot of Ideas. both
good and bad. but most of all
a lot of energy and the
common goal of making Costa
Mesa a place they can be
proud of. Today, we begin a
four-part look at the RfOPle,
the groups. the probl4tns and
the community's vision of the
Westside.
This series of stories will run
each Thursday for the next
four weeks. We hope you find
it Informative, engaging and

with the help of a retired Newport
Beach attorney, Assemblyman
John Campbell (R-lrvine) wasn't
able to limit fees lawyers can
receive in class-action suits.
The legislation, known as
Assembly Bill 456, died in commit-
tee Wednesday. The bill would
have· imposed a fee cap of either
$1 ,000 per hour or 15% of the final
settlement, whichever amount is
less.
"We didn't get It because the
trial lawyers are a very strong lob-
by, and they didn't want it," a
somewhat dejected Campbell said

is clearly not enough."

who are friends, were spurred into
action by a series of class-action
suits where attorneys reaped stag-

for the bill, came when attorneys

Cook and Campbell weren't the
only ones appalled by the case.

Cbnst, • there's one thing we
can surely agree on. They
aren't kidding anyone. What
they say is what we get.
And what they say,
according to their director as
quoted in the Los Angeles
Times, is that the intent of
the conference-was to give
grass-roots members the
tools for "positively affecting
the culture and renewing the
vision of the Founding
Fathers.• Which is -code for
getting elected or appointed,
then achleving sufficient
power to put in place their
agendas in any vulnerable
public or political entities.
U you're cunous as to the
nature of the vision and the
ways in which this group -
headed by D. James
Kennedy, founder of Coral
Ridge Ministries m Fort
Lauderddle, Fla. -would
like to affect our culture, you
might want to ponder the
relevancy to a school board
or city council member of
such conference topics as ·A
Plan That Could Reverse Roe
vs. Wade,• "Strategies for
Stopping Partial-Birth Abor-
tion," "An Inside Look at the
U.N.'s Global Governance

One of their speakers was
the Alabama Supreme Court
justice who refused to take
J~ph N. Bell

d own a plaque of the Ten
Commandments in his court-
rQOm and thereby became a
role model for our own
Wendy Leece.
Another spe&ker -in
keeping with the Kermedy
group's demonization of
homosexuality -was a
young man who was
allegedly converted to het-
erosexuality th.rough
Reclaiming America therapy.
I wish I might have supplied
a second speaker on this
subject, someone very near
and dear to me who bought
into the sin they laid on her
and in desperation subjected
herself to this treatment with
near-tragic results. Only
when she finally rejected the
alleged therapy and accept-
ed herself as both a lesbian
and a child of God did she
find peace and contribute
mightily to the world in
which she lives.
As for the Founding
Fathers' vision, you might
want to read some historical-
ly accredited biographies -
especially of Washington.

Lifeguards rescued two men
who dove off Newport Pier
and got caught in a rip cur-

officials said.

Capt Jun Turner said that at
about 7 a.m .. he saw a man run
across the pier. put his anus up
in the air, flip over the rail and
crash m the waler feet hrsL
•1 was Wlde awake then,
but it was still a surpnse," he
said. Another man followed
suit, also making the 25-foot
plunge. Soon, both became
trapped ma np current. Turn-
er said.
"They grabbed onto the
pier pilings because they
were really tired," he srud.
Lt. Brent Jacobsen led the
rescue effort, backed up by
Turner and Capt. Eric Bauer.
The first jumper was identi-
fied as Jonathan Armendarez,
20, of Ontario, police said.
He was cited and arrested
on suspicion of being under the
influence of alcohol. said New-
port Beach Police Sgt Steve
Shulman. Armendarez posted
$100 bail, Shulman said.
The other man, whose
name was not available, was
issued a citation, officials said.
The two men were not the
only pier jumpers this week,
Turner said. On Sunday~
another man almost had to be
rescued after jumping off the
same spot. He managed to
beat the rip current and swim
ashore but was issued a cita-
tion, Turner said.
"Three jumpers in two days
is pretty rare," Turner said.
It is also extremely danger-
ous because 'the water is shal-
low in that location, he said.

Fred Plumer. pastor of
Irvine United Church of

considerable length and
came away so concerned by
both the agenda and the
growing political clout of
Reclaiming America for

that he organized a confer-
ence of his own that he
called Proclaiming America
for All. It met in his church
Saturday, and I went -both
because I respect Plumer
and because Reclaiming
America stirred a lot of
unpleasant memories for me.
Plumer set the keynote in
his introduction when he
said: "Too many people see
this as a conflict between
Christian perspectives. It's so
much more important than
that. We're trying to attract
attention to the real question:
Should we be concerned that
people highly organized and
sophisticated are talking
about taking over the coun-
try while they tell their critics
that it is presumptuous of
them to disagree with God.

Hank Panian, Barbara Panian's hus-

had extreme graciousness and poise,
even when she was debating a hot issue.
"When she was president of the
association, she got caught up in all
sorts of debates, but I've never seen her
lose her cool." he said. "She was a
grand lady. When her family le.ft home,
I think she adopted Costa Mesa as her

"It made me break up," he said. •It said
not lo worry about her and so forth. She
was always more ooncemed about others
than her.;elf, even to the last second She
knew she was dying, and yet she was con-

The surviving family, made up of
Mike Maples, wife Susan Maples, and
their son, Michael Russell Maples, asked
that Mrs. Maples' address not be printed:
"If they don't know her address, they

COSTA MESA-Changes
may be afoot for the propoi;alsed
Home Ranch "Plan as offici
for C.J. Segerstrom & Sons
announced they would be
willing to build high-quality,
single-family townhomes or
condominiums instead of
high-density apartments.
The original proposal for the
93-acre project was redesigned
last year to add housing, as
well as to reduce building
heights and the square-foot
density of the office space ..
The latest proposal would
reduce the density from 29
homes per acre to between 12
and 18 homes per acre, said ·
Carol Hoffman,. pri.ilcipal for
Government Solutions, which
conducted tours of the prop-
erty Monday and Tuesday.
The amended p}an for the
site -a lima bean farm bor-
dered by the San Diego Free-
way, Fairview Road, Harbor
Boulevard and Sunnower
Avenue-calls for a 308,000-
square-foot Ikea furniture
store, 791,050 square feet of
office space, 252,648 square
feet of industrial business and
464 homes.
Though she awaits more
information . on the revision.
Mayor Libby Cowan said it
shows the developer is listen-
ing and responding to the
community.
•I'm very mlerested in
what they have to say, and I
look forward to the negotia-
tion process.• Cowan said. "I
think there are opportunities
for us to do a quality project.•
Planning Commissioner
Walt Davenport said the revi-
sion rould change some minds.

high-density rental housing,

Councilman Chris Steel

ment but previously has said
he was concerned about the
rental housing. Citizens for .
the Improvement of Costa
Mesa Chairwoman Janice
Davidson said Monday the
change begins. to create a
much better project.
But Robin Leffler, another
Costa Mesa resident, said her
opinion remained unchangeq.
Her concerns include the aes-
thetics of the Ikea store and
the parts of the project expect-
ed to "significantly exceed"
the general plan require-
ments for the site, such as traf-
fic ~eneration and the density
of the industrial park.
Three homeoWners associ-
ations worry that the project .,
could strain police and fire
services, and increase traffic
and urban runoff.
In two recent tours,
Segerstrom and Ikea officials'
offered counterpoints to
many of the concerns.
The freeway would block
most homes' views of the
Ikea, ,which would in tum be
most visible from the freeway,
Hoffman said .
Even considering the pro-
ject's cost to city services, the
tax reveJlue the project is
expected to generate will
bring the city a net profit of
$1. 7 million each year, she
said, while a project built to
comply with the current gen-
eral plan would cost the city
about $45,286 annually.
Hoffman also explained
that the housing ~ proposed at
Sunflower Avenue and Susan
Street, not at Fairview Road
and South Coast Drive, which
'some opponents had feared.
The final tour is scheduled
to take place from 9:30 to 11 :30
a.m. May 12, with a reserva-
tion deadline or Wednesday.

Teachers await
'
:word on grants
•Tonight, Newport-Mesa instructors will learn
which of their proposals will be funded by the
district's education foundation.
Danette Goulet
DAILY PILOT
NEWPORT-MESA
Across the school district,
teachers are itching with
anticipation as they wait to
hear tonight which grants the
Newport-Mesa Schools Foun-
dation has chosen to fund.
More than 150 teachers in
the Newport-Mesa Unified
School District will be award-
ed 173 grants, totaling more
than $400,000, • said Jo
Meredith, a spokeswoman for
the foundation.
Just by getting an invita-
bon to tonight's banquet at
the Hyatt Newporter in New-
port Beach, teachers know
they have been awarded at
least one grant. But for teach-
ers such as Cata Boyd and
Jenny Dory, who wrote appli-
cations for multiple grants,
that only heightens the sus-
pense.
·we found out a month
ago that one or more grants
were awarded, but that could
mean anything to us,• said
Boyd, who co-wrote 11 grants
with her fellow teacher.
The two first-grade teach-
ers at Wilson Elementary
School co-wrote grants in all
six flinding categories this
year, which ranged from $200
to as much.¥ $10,000.
They wrote smaller grants
for thelC own classrooms, mJd-
level grants to.share between
thel.J' two rooms and larger
grants for the whole grade
level.
The foundation is a private
..
organization that was estab·
Ushed in 1981 to enhance
education in the district.
Grants will go to teachers
from each of the 29 schools in
the district and will pay for
programs in a ·number of
areas, including the arts, sci-
ence, math, language arts,
special education and social
studies, Meredith said.
For some, the suspense is
over, leaving them with mere
excitement. Gabriel Del Real,
a fourth-grade teacher at Rea
Elementary School in Co~
Mesa, wrote one grant, so be
is thrilled to know it has been
funded.
"I'm a first-year teacher, so
I didn't have a lot of materi-
als,• Del Real said. ·So this
was a good opportunity fo r
me to add to areas I wanted to
build, so I wen t for language
arts, to build centers.·
But if Del Real thinks the
excitement is over, he hasn't
heard who's coming to din-
ner.
The Irvine Co. will fund 27
Teacher of Excellence
Awards at $7,500 each and
three Teacher o{ the Year
Awards at $10,000 each.
Additionally, the Donald
Bren Foundation will award a
$15,000 Educational Erirtch-
ment Grant to each of the
nine schools in the Irvine
Ranch communities.

COSTA MESA -Teach-

rarely expecting, or getting, a
thank you for their efforts.
So it was both a surprise
and a treat for the 35 teachers
from Estancia and Costa
Mesa high schools Tuesday
night who were honored at a
teacher appreciation dinner.
"I was es~cially honored
as a first-year teacher,
because I'd think 1t would be
reserved for those teachers
who have been here a long
time,* said Rachel Delossan-
tos, a biology and We soence
teacher at Estanoa.
Delossantos was among
more than a dozen teachers
from each school lo be cho-
sen, somewhat at random, for
the honor by students who
are also members of Harbor
lii.nity Church.
"To me, it's a chance to
show the teachers that · we
care about more than just
what they do in the class-
room,• said Megan Yenny,
17, a senior at Costa Mesa
High School. "So often we're
just in and out of the class-

you.'"

" .. ... • .... ..
The intersection at 19th Street and Placentia Avenue on Costa Mesa's Westside. ,.
WESTSIDE
CONTINUED FROM A 1
it's pretty dirty with litter."
Westside residents are
quick to point out that the
problems are the result of
long-standing neglect.
"These problems have
been there for years,• said
Eleanor Egan. co-chair of the
Westside Improvement Assn.
•I think we've been ignored
for a long time. I mean, look
at the pavement. I think what
happened is people felt help-
less and hopeless and didn't
try to do anything."
The city began paying
closer attention to the West-
side cries for improvement in
1998, when it began consid-
enng mtense revitalization
for the area.
During two years of city
meetings and studies on the
plan, vastly different opinions
formed and people with siJni-
lar goals formed or joined a
number of organizations.
From the outspoken and
often controversial Citizens
for the Improvement of Costa
Mesa to the more obscure
Coalition of Auto Repair and
Service Professionals, they all
have one thing in common:
They want the Westside and
its image improved.
They disagree, however,
about the sources of the prob-
lems, which improvements
are needed and in the meth-
ods they are using to bring
about change.
Their ideas can be contro-
versial.
Some residents have said
for several years that a steady
stream of illegal immigrants
and low-income famllies
have overcrowded apart-
ments and schools, overtaxed
dty services, and increased
blight and gang activity.
Others say the problem ls
rising housing and living
costs, combined with wages
that have not kept up.
Their solutions Include
asking the city to consider
bulld.ing a 19th Street bridge
aossing the Santo Ana River
and reducing the number of
charities in the dty.
1n November, two thl.ngs
changed in the improvement
group communJty.
Ant. Chdl Steel, a long·
time Ctty Council attic who
had run umuccesstully nine um., won a •teet on the
COUDdl b.-cl Oil that pJat·
forlll, 1be atDIDt for the
lmpl0¥.rDent ol Colta Mese
group. wblcb supported
Steel'• UK1loD. c:oDtinuee to
have similar views.
Also that month, City
Council members voted to
delay further Westside plan-
ning efforts until they can
agree on a vision for the
entire city.
Their vision could be a
long time coming. They have
not yet begun to work· o.n it
and do not even agree on
whether the city should have
one.
Nonetheless, several orga-
nizations are . finding the
momentum to work past the
plan's demise.
Groups born out of the
proposed plan, as well as
groups that worked on the
plan but matured well before
the plan was in its first draft,
have turned their attention to
new ways to improve the
Westside.
CRIZlllS FOi 1111
lllPIOVUlllT Of

They rarely have meetings
in person, but members of the
• Citizens for the Improvement
of Costa Mesa keep in touch
several times a day via com-
puters.
The group of no more than
20 active members has a run·
ning dialogue on its e-mail
chat group, concemed-
coatamesadUzens@yahoogro-
ups.com, which nearly 70 res-
idents have visited, Chair-
woman Janice Davidson said.
Even members of other
organizations frequent the
chat group because tt ls a way
for people in need to find help
and for people who want to
get involved to learn bow
they can help, she said.
Davidson started the orga-
nization last year after leav-
ing the Westside Improve-
ment Assn.
"I had worked with the
WIA, but my heart was set on
CtCM from the very begin-
ning,• she said. "It's citywide,
not jUJt the Westside, and it's
a very valuable thing. We're

down on illegal immigrants, a
move some say would
improve property values,
schools and the overall quali-
ty of life in Costa Mesa.
The group opposes a John
Wayne Airport expansion
and supports lowering the
city's housing densitf,
encouraging home owner-
ship, rezoning the bluffs from
industrial to single-family res-
idential use, encouraging
charities -which the group
sees as magnets for illegal
immigrants -to include
more social education, and
eliminating the city's
"slums," Davidson said.
Joel Faris, who ran unsuc-
cessfully foP{s seat on the City
Council in 'Wovember, has
joined the group, as well as
the Westside Improvement
Assn. and the Latino Commu-
nity Network.
"CtCM is aggressive and
is really getting down to the
nitty-gritty, • he said. "They
are trouble-shooters. When
they see a problem, they go
after· it right away.•
Jean Forbath, founder of
Share Our Selves, said she
thinks many groups, includ-
ing Citizens for the Improve-
ment of Costa Mesa, ignore
the problems of people who
rent apartments and can't
afford to own a home in the
city.
"They come forth with a
very reasoned voice in public
and yet I'm not sure what
their motives are,• she said.
"The idea of getting rid of
multifamily housing in favor
of single-famtly housing is
just not rational. There's a
great -social need for more
affordable housing. Where
are people going to live1
There are organiz4tions pop-
ping up that have an influ-
ence and a voioe, and that is
fo their credit. But I would
hope they would be less divi-
sive, more uniting and wtlling
to really look at Costa Mesa
as a whole community, not
just homeowners."

prominence,· Egan said. themselves heard.•
"Everybody is aware of it
now. and I don't think a sin-
gle Ci!Y Council meeting
goes, fry without someone
. talking about it. The first step
is raising consciousness, and I
think we have done that.•
The association, which
formed last year, holds steer-
ing committee meetings
twice a month, once in the
evening and once in the
afternoon, to make it easier
for committee members to
inaJ<e at least one of them.
Egan said. The nine-member
steering committee then
sends information to hun-
dreds of residents on its e-

said.
Faris said the group is like
a turtle, with a slow, yet wise
approach.
"It is working on great
quality of life issues,· he said.
"It is a really wise group
when it comes to long-term
planning."
Unlike some Westside
organizations, the association
concentrates solely on the
-Westside.
"Those of us who live here
think it is just a great place,"
Egan said. "It's got the sea
breeze, a diverse community,
easy access to commercial
stuff on the Eastside and
access to the freeway. It has
great potential and isn't malc-
ing good use of its potential."
The issues have remained
the same since the beginning,
Egan said.
The group favors repairing
streets, putting utilities
underground, eliminating
graffiti, improving schools,
improving commercial areas
and bringing homes and
busmesses up to the stan-
dards of dty codes, she said.
WAU.ACEARU
IMPIOVEllEIT GROUP
. -Eliminating gangs, drugs
and graffiti were among the
Wallace Area Improvement
Group's first goals.
After victories against
gang activity and drug use.
the 44-member group
expanded its goals, although
it still aims to curb graffiti,
said Cathy Waters, the
group's president.
Waters said the group in
April decided to halt its work
on the city's Westside plan-
ning efforts and instead focus
on informing people about
the city's $2,000 reward for
information leading to the
arrest and conviction of peo-
ple who spray graffiti, as well
as to urge the City Council to
study the possibility of a
bridge on 19th Street and to
oppose having a city-spon-
sored effort to determine how
residenLs want the city to·
develop.
Six apartment owners and
managers collaborated in
1989 to start what was then
known as the Wallace
Avenue Improvement Group,
founded by directors Phil
Morello and David Salcido.
The group's borders, once
limited to Wallace and
Pomona avenues, now
extend to 19th Street; Victoria
'Streel, Pfacentia Avenue and
Harbor Boulevard.
According to a flier, the
group created a campaign
that resulted in the city's 24-
hour graffiti paint-out policy,
and also worked to create a
since-revised grocery cart
ordinance, to increase light-
ing in the Palace and Sterling
alleys, to prohibit the U$e of
pushcarts and to restrict gro-
cery trucks on their streets.

Save Our Youth founder
Roy Alvarado collaborated
with Daily Pilot Publisher
· Tom Johnson, Chamber of
Commerce Chief Executive
and President Ed Fawcett
and El Ranchito Restaurant
owner Maria Elena Avila to
start the Latino Leadership
Council in late 1995.
Alvarado's "vision was to
find role models for kids be

predominantly Latino, so he
was interested in Latino busi-
nesses who could show their
success and their ability to
achieve community success
through education," said
Turpit, who also serves as
secretary for the Latino Com-
munity Network. "Also, this
is a business community that
had been underrepresented
tn the chamber, so the cham-
ber was interested tn reach-
ing out specifically to Latino
businesses. They are sign.W-
eant members of the business
community who have not his-
torically participated in the
chamber's activities.•
The council's rust meeting
was held in early 1996, and
Turpit said Alvarado, who
die<lfthat year after a 10119

to continue working on the
group on bis behalf.

community and supporters,.
she said. ·we want to be
unified with other organiza-
tions and to increase partici-
pation from our members
and the rest of community.·
The Latino Community
Network's name is not
intended to .exclude people
who are not Latino, Burciaga
said.
"It is not that the group is
made up of Hispanics,• she
said. "The group is here
to help the Hispanic commu-
nity.•
Faris said the group has
been good about not making
him feel like an outsider.
"I don't like race-based
groups and I wish it wasn't

ty Network, but actually it
includes different races,• he
said. •That group's meeting

The network includes

vice organizations such as

formed to combat part of the
city's Westside planning
efforts that included encour-
aging the sale of auto shops
and other businesses on the
Westside. •
The coalition successfully
opposed a proposed morato-
riwn on new automotive
businesses on the Westside
in December 1999 and con-
tinued to voice its opinions at
the city's Westside planning
meetings unW November.
Some of the steps the
coa.lition advocated for the
Westside included widening
19th Street, putting utility
wires underground, adding
a grocery store, choosing a
non-ethnic color scheme to
complement the industrial
style of the majority of the
area's buildings, unifying the
automotive business build-
ings with a logo and offering
no-interest loans to help
people comply with the plan.
19TH TO THE IUCH
The dormant 19th to the
Beach might be the group
that has had the most influ-
ence over the other Westside
organizations.

Graham said 19th to the
Beach's goal is to get the oty
to study economic effects the .
bridge would have, as well.
"One of the specific goals
of the City Council is to get
the bridge eliminated from
the county's master plan, but
there is no baslS for that,· he
said. "We're just asking that
they look at it fairly. Will 1t
benefit Costa Mesa? I Uunk
it will. I think a bridge would
deal with all the problems on
the Westside that people talk
about."
Supporters of the bridge,
including Waters, Morello
and Bunney, think a bridge
could raise property values
on the Westside.
"It will give residents
instant and immediate
access to the beach. it will
give businesses on 19th
Street the traffic they need lo
expand and prosper, and it
will make the city a legiti-
mate coastal town,· Graham
said.
But other residents are
dead set against the bridge,
saying it would add unwant-
ed traffic to 19th Street and
the surrounding residential
streets.
"I've lived by 'busy streets
before and I know what it's
like in tenns of quality 'of
life,• resident Craig Peterson
said. "I plcked my neighbor-
hood because it is all quiet
and, when 1 walk outside

CORONA DEL MAR -
There may be six teams in SWIMMING
the Pacific Coast League, .
but when it comes to girls swimming, Corona del
Mar High and University are a notch above the
rest of the competition in terms of team depth.
That depth will be put to the test Friday for the
PCL finals and after what CdM Coach Doug
Volding saw in Wednesday's preliminaries, he's
confident, but cautious.
"It's going to be a very interesting meet, that's
for sure,• Voiding said. "I don't want my girls to
get overconfident, but if I had a choice, I'd take

Dear Sports Editor

After making some phone calls (I
believe), to my dismay, that there
seems to be an agenda by a handlul
of parents to remove the present
coaching staff, in particular the
water polo coaches, which would
include Coach Bill. Barnett.
Mr. Barnett is a national treasure
when 1t comes to water polo. With
over 3S years of coaching high
school, aJ1 at Newport Har~r1 and
leading the U.S. Olympic Team lo a
silver medal, he is the benchmark
that other programs are compared.

lRVlNE -Ti.mes have certainly
changed for the Newport Harbor
I figh girls swim program.
Sailors Coach Ken LaMont, who
IS in his third year, says Newport no
longer solely depends on its water
polo standouts during the swim sea-
son . These are the days when club
swimmers prove vital to have a
chance for a high school league title.
Tars' sophomore Nicole Mackey.
one of three swimmers who have
brought new We to the school's pro-
gram, displayed the essence of
Newport Harbor's development.
She broke the Sea View League
record in the 100-yard backstroke
(57 .30), nearly surpassing the for-
mer record (58.23) by a second in
the league's preliminaries at Her-
itage Park Wednesday. She also
qualified first in the 100 butterfly
(57.13), completing ClF-automatic
times in both events. ·
Mackey's teammates, junior Car-
ly Geehr (qualified 1st in the 200
individual medley) and sophomore
Hayley Peirsol (first in the 500 free),
provided the 1-2 punch in the 200
free as Geehr touched the wall first.
Both also swam to CIF-automatic
times in their respective events.
For Newport senior Jennifer
Arrow, the success of the three
swimmers has made her final year
even more enjoyable. She has wit-
nessed with delight the improve-
ment of the Sailors and she sighed
when she started to reminisce.

"Everyone is more excited about
being able to swim now, w said
Arrow, Who credited the addition of
the club swimmers. She qualified
fourth in the 100 breaststroke
( 1 :09.91), good for ClF, and eighth in
the 200 IM (2:25.94), garnering CfF
consideration.
As a sophomore, Arrow acciden-
tally broke her right ankle four
weeks before the CIF Southern Sec-
tion prelims. She says that's when
she noticed the extreme team sup-
port, which also helped her rehabil-
itate quicker. Newport's team uruty
has become a strong asset ln the
development as well.
The Sailors strengthened rela-
tionships while al the Palm Springs
Invitational, Friday and Saturday,
where they finished second. Also,
Tusday night, teammates formed a
team dinner, which LaMont said
was a first since he's been there.
The results may not bring a Sea
View title th.is year, but l.a~1ont
believes the noticeable improve-
ment will attract more of the school's
students to join the team.
Said LaMont, "We've gotten to
the point where th.is is a place where
the girls want to be at ... that's what
makes us so attractive.·
Helping the cause were senior
Erin Ball (100 free) and sophomores
Mai Tajima (200 free and 100 back),
Peggy Beebe (500 free), Jenna Mur-
phy (50 free), Paige Lansing (500
free) and Ashley Parole (100 free).
They finished ln the top eight in
their r~pective events, qua.lifying
for Friday's finals.
-LaMont said Tajima, who quali-
fied fifth in both events, is one to
\
watch for.
"She started out last season (on
junior varsity),• he said. •And now
she's one of our top swimmers.•
Ball, who will play water polo
next year at the University of Michi-
gan, was also quick to credit the club
swimmers for the team's recent nse.
"They make us feel that we're on
the same level with the other high
schools with the club swinuners.·
said Ball.
Erin Ball (100 back) and her sis-
ter, J essica (50 and 100 free). along
with Amber Braly (100 fly and 500

. 1b.e tme colors of elitism shine brightly
I am disturbed and sad-
dened by what I have seen
as of late on the social
beat. Thefefore, I am com-
pelled to share some or my
observations. This comes from
a heartfelt position to honor
the best of the hwnan spirit. I
~ope these words will gl.ye
nse to some thought among
my friends and readers.
The subject is elitism. And
the mes~ge is that we are
losing our way-our pur-
pose -in the pursuit of
association with wealth and
power via social connection
through charitable activity.
Otherwise stated , this col-
umn is a w~g to all of the
amazing, glamorous and
generous Newport-Mesa
give.rs that the road to chari-
table redemption is not
paved with ambitious social
climbing in what was, is and
always wili be a vacuous
pursuit of personal glory in
an ever-escalating attempt to
be seated at the proper table.
In recent months, I have
become more acutely aware
of the plethora of ever more
grandiose parties raising
trenit!ndbus funds with
turnoufs exceeding expecta-
tions. And along with this
trend, the true colors of
social elitism have been
shining brightly -the peck-
ing order at work, with indi-
viduals exhibiting qualities
of distasteful competition to
establish desired recognition.
And I have to wonder,
and I must ask: What are we
doing?
Raising funds for worth-
·while causes has become a
way of life 111 Arnenca for
those who have the time and
the funds to play. And in
Orange County, particularly
in the Newport-Mesa region,
the wheels of the social
machine are bigger than
ever before.
At the same time, many
organizations are not reach-
ing financial expectations
given recent stock market
adjustments that have sup-
posedly curtailed donations •
from certain sectors of the
giving community.
Why then are there more
events lh4.n ever? Many or
the events celebrate with lav-
ish themes, famous entertain-

THE CROWD
ers and headliners, extrava-
gant locations, food and wine
beyond description, and pe~
ple dressed to kill showing
up night after night to mingle
with the crowd .. Competition
for the giving dollar seems
just as great as the competi-
tion for star quality status
among the givers.
The catalyst for this ser-
mon came in the form or an
invitation from a relatively
new organization working for
disadvantaged children. This
smallvyet ostensibly power-
ful, wealthy and influential
group supports a very old
established Orange County
chil~en's charity, which s:f remam anonymous.
They do important wor .
They need money. So, I am
Cautious concerning ottering
any criticism about an orga-
nization that helps to raise
money for children in need.
That aside, I was.perplexed
when I received. the invita-
tion from the group for their
spring luncheon. A very fine
printed piece came in the
mail with a front card stating
... "Souy Sold Out.'
My first thought was,
"Why did they wast~ the
paper and the stamps?"
Then I thought about the
people who received this
invitation. Were they insult-
ed? Did they think that they
were left out? Was this sup-
posed to send a message that
this was the new charity of
choice, and there wasn't
room for all? Did the organiz-
ers think that they would
create a frenzy among the
"want to be" c;ontingent?
To be fair, the printed
j.nvitation solicited interest

from those not able to attend
this particular function. The
invitation also asked for con-
tributions.
This tactic was easily
interpreted as the ultimate
act of snobbery, elitism run
amok. If 1 am making too
much of this, I apologize, yet
I want to send the message
to people I care about in this
community that we need to
focus on the substance as
well as the style. And we
need to use some brainpow-
er and think about the con-
sequences of our actions and
intentions.
To be blunt, it amazes me
that people who are so suc-
cessful in life can often be so
oblivious. If the home being
used for this particular party
could only accommodate a
certain number of people for
the affair, and the friendS
and associates of the chanty
tilled the space, so be it.
Have the party, raise the
money, and don't flaunt it.
Don't tease the population
over a social eve nt meant to
help children. It's offensive.
It is not my place to judge
the actions of others. On the
other hand, my job is to
observe people and events in
the this community. The lev-
el of goodness and generosi-
ty that exists in society is
praiseworthy. We have the
potential to be incredible
·examples of people helping
people. 1hle shining stars of
humanity.
Let us not lose our way in
pursuit or the social ·A• list,
the right table, or the pre-
sumed association with those
deemed wealthy and power-
ful business connections in
the social strata.
And, don't get me wrong.
This does not mean that our
fabulous events should be
reduced to potluck dinners.
This does not mean that
g lamorous clothes and the
beautiful jewelry, the make-
up, the hair, the exercise, the
diets and all of the grand
affectations we love to dis-
play have no place.
All or these affectations
are expressions of who we
are, who we want to be. A
world without style would be
so dull. And I would be out
of work.
Rather, let us be more
mindful of the substance, the
reason that we raise funds for
charity. Substance with style
is a powerful fonnult:\. Style
without substa,nce is, tr8hkly,
vapid. And finally, let us
guard against elitist actions.
There is such a distinction
between excellence and
exclusivity versus elitism.
I recently told the Orange
County Museum of Art's ·Art
of.Dining" producer Marsha
Andenon that she should
charge more money for the
upcoming museum fund-
raiser slated for a 14th run
this comi{lg Sunday. After-
ward I thought to myself ...
was I guilty of the s&me elit-
ist ploy that I rail against in
this column?
The answer is no. Ander-
son will chair the most spec-
tacular fund-raiser of the
year for the museum. It will
be extravagant. It will be
original. It will be artistic and
dramatic. It's purpose is to
raise major .funds to support
the museum. The price of
admission should be sub-
stantial, attracting those who
are able to give to support
art and culture in,IOrange
Courtty on the ultimate level.
The fact that not all can
afford the experience, does
not make it elitist, it makes it
exclusive. t.nd the re is ad.if.
ference.
We need to be smarter.
We need to be more sensi-
tive. We need to build our
society on values, not just
unages. It's just fine to be
glamorous. Let's also try to
be more decent, more loving,
more understanding. Let's be
people of substance that also
just happen to have great

Doily Pilot • SOCIElY .
Tbe true colors of elitism shine brightly . .
I am disturbed and sad-
dened by what I have seen as of late on the social
beat. Therefore, I am com-
Relled to s~ some o( my ,
observations. This comes from
a heartfelt position to honor
the best of the human spirit. I
~ope these words will give
nse to some thought among
my friends and readers.
The subject is elitism. And
the message is that we are
losing our way _. our pur-
pose -in the pursuit of
association with wealth and
power via social connection
through charitable activity.
Otherwise stated, this col-
wnn is a warning to all of the
amazing, glamorous and
generous Newport-Mesa
givers that the road to chari-
table redemption is not
paved with ambitious social
climbing in what was, is and
always will be a vacuous ·
pursuit of personal glory in
an ever-escalating attempt to
be seated at the proper table.
ln recent months, I have
become more acutely aware
of the plethora or ever more
grandiose parties raising
tremendous funds with
turnouts exceeding expecta'-
tions. And along with this
trend, the true colors of
social elitism have been
shining brig~tly -the peck-
ing order at work, with indi-
viduals exhlbiting qualities
of distasteful competition to
establish desired recognition.
And I have to wonder,
and I must ask: What are we
doing?
Raising funds for worth-
while causes has become a
way of We m America for
-those who have the blne and
the funds to play. And m
Orange County, particularly
in the Newport-M.esa region,
the wheels of the social
machine are bigger than
ever before.
At the same time, many
organizations are not reach-
ing financial expectations
given recent stock market
adjustments that have sup-
posedly curtailed donations •
from certain sectors of the
giving community.
Why then are there more
events than ever? Many of
the events celebrate with lav-
ish themes, famous entertain-

ers and headliners, extrava-
gant locations, food and wine
beyond description, and peo-
ple dressed to kill showing
up night after night to mingle
with the crowd. Competition
for the giving dollar seems
just as great as the competi-
tion for star quality status
among the givers.
The ca~yst for this ser-
mon came in the form of an
invitation from a relatively
new organization working for
disadvantaged children. This
small, yet ostensibly power-
ful, wealthy and influential
group supports a very old
established Orange County
children's charity, which shall
remain anonymous.
They do important work.
They need money. So, I am
cautio\.is concerning offering
any criticism about an orga-
nization that helps to raise
money for children in need.
That aside, I was perplexed
when I received the invita-
tion from the group for their
spring luncheon. A very fine
printed piece came in the
mail with a front card stating
... "Sorry Sold Out.'
My first thought was,
"Why did they waste the
paper and the stamps?"
Then I thought about the
people who received this
invitation. Were they insult-
ed? Did they think that they
were left out? Was this sup-
posed to send a message that
this was the new charity of
choice, and there wasn't
room for all? Did the organiz-
ers think that they would
create a frenzy among the
"want to be" contingent?
To be fair, the printed
invitation solicited interest ...-

from th0$e not able to attend
this particular function. The
invitation also asked for con-
tributions.
This tactic was easily
interpreted as the ultimate
act of snobbery, elitism run
amok. H I am making too
much of this, I apologize, yet
I want to send the message
to people I care about in this
community that we need to
focus on the substa,nce as
well as the style. And we
need to use some brainpow-
er and think about the con-
sequences or our actions and
intentions.
To be blunt, it amazes me
that people who are so suc-
cessful in life can often be so·
oblivious. If the home being
used for this particular party
could only accommodate a
certain number of people for
the affair, and the friends
and associates of the charity
filled the space, so be it.
Have the party, raise the
money, and don't flaunt it.
Don't tease the population
over a social event meant to
help children. It's offensive.
It is not my place to judge
the actions of others. On the
other hand, my job is to
observe people and events in
the this community. The lev-
el or goodness and generosi-
ty that exists in society is
praiseworthy. We h<!ve the
potentia..l to be incredible
examples of people helping
people. nue shining stars of
humanity.
Let us not lose our way in
pursuit of the soaal •A" list,
the right table, or the pre-
sumed association with those
deemed wealthy and power-
ful business connections in
the social strata.
And, don't get me wrong.
This does not mean that our
fabulous events should be
reduced to potluck dirmers .
This does not mean that ·
glamorous clothes and the
beautiful jewelry, the make-
up, the hair, the exercise. the
diets and ~1 of the grand
affectations we love to dis-
play have no place.
All of these affectations
are expressions of who we
are, who we want to be. A
world without style would be
so du).l. And l would be out
of work.
Rather, let us be more
mindful of the substance, the
reason that we raise funds for
charity. Substance with style
is a powerful formula. Style
without substance is, frankly,
vapid. And finally, let us
guard against elitist actions.
There is such a distinction
between excellence and
exclusivity versus elitism.
I recently told the Orange
County Museum of Art's • M
of Dining" producer Marsha
Andenon that she should
charge more money for the
upcoming museum fund-
raiser slated for a 14th run tb.iS coming Sunday. After-
ward IJhought to mysell ...
was I guilty of the same elit-
ist ploy that I rail against in
this column?
1lle answer is no. Ander-
son will chair the most spec-
tacular fund-raiser of the
year for the museum. It will
be extravagant. It will be
original. It will be artistic and
dramatic. It's purpose is tq
raise major funds to support
the museum. The price of
admission should be sub-
stantial, attracting those who
are able to give to support
art and culture in Orange
County on the ultimate level.
The fact that not all can
afford the experience, does
not make it elitist, it makes it
exclusive. And the re is a dif-
ference.
We need to be smarter.
We need to be more sensi-
tive. We need to build our
sodetY on values, not just
images. It's just fine to be
glamorous. Let's also try to
be more decent, more loving,
more understanding. Let's be
people of substance that also
just happen to have great
style, great verve and com-
mitted purpose to good and
lasting impact on our society
through the work of charity.

Antonello · offers Old World .Italy: on a platter
By Stephen~
T here are a handful of,
restaurants in Orange
County lh4t have for
years exemplifl.ed the style of
fine dinjng prefened by the
well-heeled and well-mon-
eyed elite. Some, such as
JobnDoi:ninus,havefaded
away. Others, such as The
Ritz and The Five Crowns,
continue on.
Antonello, in South Coast
Village, has been one such
restaurant, treating diners to
an Old World Italian atmos-
phere since 1979. Owner
Antonio Cagnolo hails from
Bistagno, a small village in
northern Italy. When he
opened the restaurant, with
the help of his mother and
father, Antonio wanted to re-
-create ~e atmosphere and
cuisine of his hometown, and
for the most part he's been
successful.
The main dining room of
the restaurant tries to re-cre-
ate the illusion of dining out-

known to stop in.
Capitalizing on this suc-
cess, Antoiiello has begun
marketing its own line of
pasta sauces, tryihg to bring
some of their world-class
cooking to diners' homes. I
think this is great, but l did·
n't appreciate the little book-
lets at each table advertising
the sauces al9ng with a well-
k:nown brand of premium
Italian pasta. I expect
coupons at a fast-food •
restaurant, not a place that
emphasizes fine dining.
My alarm at Antonello's
commercial ventures
increased when, on several
recent visits, I found the usu-
ally top-notch cuisine not up
to standards.
Chef Franco Barone has
always impressed me with
his menu that remains true to
Antonello's northern Italian
roots both in offerings and
execution. The selections
have always emphasized
fresh ingredients and classic
preparations, featuring
homemade pastas and
organic Piedmontese beef.

a tough time choosing
between these or the Ravio-
letti ($16.95), which are
miniature ravioli stuffed with
veal in a hearty meat sauce.
The choices one has to
make.
One choice I'd skip is the
Tortellini ($17 .95). This pricey
pasta features a filling fondu-
ta (sort of a white cheese
sauce) and truffles, with a
brown butter and sage sauce.
I found the filling pasty, and
although I could taste some
trume essence, I couldn't
detect any sage at all.

Less successful is the

offers thin strips of the same
beef sauteed with wine and
shallots and served over a
potato puree, a fancy way of

dish is boring. plain and sim·

The portions are generous
at Antonello but try to leave
room for dessert, even if you
have to share. My favorite is
the Panna Cotta ($7 .50),
which in Italian translates lit·

This rich dessert is the Italian,
version of nan but has a
creamier, milkier flavor.
In addition to the main

A problem springs

Stallone certainly didn't help hiS

Patiick Leonard are completely wast-
ed in their roles. Pardue.manages to
fend ott Stallone's omnipresence and
hold bis own, barely. Yet, even Pardue
is held back from bis full potential.
·Stallone eventually finds his
gioove, and the movie hops into over-
drive. Everything works smoothly
and all comes together. It just could
have happened a lot sooner. Sly owes
the cast and crew a lot of thanks that
the movie turned out so well.
Bottom line: •Driven• is tons of
excitement and fun for all involved.

Powerful hands with a ~ long suit .,., not easy 10 handle. If you
multe a demand bid, partner ex~ a
better suu from yoo: if yoo do noc. yoo have difficuhy describing the
hand's strength. Here. however .. the
opening bid of one heart worked well
when partner nused to cwo hcans.
South's five hean.s asked about ttump
quality and. wi th two hOO<lfS, North
had no problem go!ng on to slam.
West led the kin& o( pades. taken
in the closed hand With ihe llOC. Whtr't
East dlowed out on 1 low heart lead :.:Jucen, I dJ 1U51ed declaref' two uump tricks for down
one.
The 4-0 trump lxcalt behind the
hand with long tnun~ was fl"lmt
unfortunlllt' -had Bast held all the trumps, 1 finesse of the nine would
have clllTicd the day. Even w, there
was a dumibution that would have
allowed Sou~ct hornet Declarer to find West with
~peclflql.lly a 3-4·3·3·hand. patLCrQ.
After discovering the bad break,
declarer must abandon trum~ and set
about reducing the trump lcnath in
the closed hand to that ofWen. After
the queen or hutta win>. declarer
must ruff a spade. cash the ace and
king of diamonds, enttt dummy with
the queen of diamond.\ and ruff
lllOthcr spade.
Next, the ace and kJng of clubs arc
cashed .ind the tablo 1~ cme~ with
the queen. Tiw reduces durruny to J
5 of hcaih and the J.1Ck of clubs, while declarer holds K 9 7 of trump'I
and Wc~t A 10 8. The bolul.I'~ last
club 1s led and decl~r niffs with the
ltin ' ~~ J\ a dead duck. If the defend·
er fails 10 ovcJTUft. declarer \tmply
~ a trump toward the JllCk. But
ofter ovCJTUffmg. the defender must
lead away from the ten of hcaru IOIO South·~ combmcd J 9 tcn11cc. Either
way, the dcfen'IC gch only one trump
