NEWPORT BEACH -As beach
goers start to unpack the folding chalfS,
public agencies have begun work to help
avoid a replay of earlier summers marred
by a rash of dosures and postings.
In 1999, a fecal bacteria scare turned

port Beach registered 256 dosures or

The postings continued last summer.

To answer lingering questions about
an underwater bacteria plume (our
miles offshore, the Orange County San·
itation District launched a $4.1-million
summer testing program May 21.
The clistnct, aJong with other public
agencies, has already completed the
brst round oJ testing off the Newport
Beach coast.hne.
·Tue agencies are very concerned
about findmg the problem so that that
area of the beach can remain open for
the commwlity to use,· Lisa Lawson, a
spokesperson for the Orange County
Sanitation District. ·
During the initial round of testing, the
chstrict collected more than 2,100 sam-
ples from the shoreline and offshore of
Newport Beach and Huntington Beach.
During a 24-hour testing program
Wednesday, the d.J.stnct collected more
than 200 water samples from the New-
port Beach shoreline.
A second round of tesb.ng, between
Santa Ana River and Newport Pier, bas
been scheduled for late June.
The results, which measure bacteria
counts of three state-mandated microor-
ganisms, could result in more postings or
closings if they don't meet state standards.

Annual surf-side Olympics
was just about having fan
Why didn't my parents send me to Newport
Elementary School? ,
It was the school-v(ide annual surf-side
Olympics. There were no prizes, no money was
being raised; it was just about fun.
There were 13 events set up for students.
They had everything from the football. basket-
ball and Frisbee tosses to a dizzy bat hwdle
combo.
Although on that one, I didn't see too
many students jump over the hurdles. They
pretty much just ran through them in their
muddled state.
And let's not forget the surf dress-up relay
race -always a favorite.
They did have to get rid of one event that
students loved -the water balloon toss.
•There were way too many complaints.· said
Steve Puppo, the PTA president
I can only assume those complaints came
from parents or perhaps teachers.
All the while surf music blared across the
beach, which had many of the girls dancing
about while they waited for their tum to Hula-

EDUCATIONALLY SPEAKING
Academic
teams shine in
NeWport-Mesa
E very week. the newspapei: is
filled with articles about all the
problems with education. Let-
ters to the editor expound that kids
these days don't take their education
seriously. Maybe that is due to what
the media chooses to cover. Every
sports team that has won league or
advances up the CIP ladder in play-
off games has been given front page
coverage on the sports section.
However, were you ·aware that
two district schools too.k first and sec-
ond place in the county for aoa.demic
smarts when they competed against
50 other tea.ms? Of CQurse not
So, I'd like to tell you about bow
proud you should be of a group of
ninth-and 10thiJC8ders from New-
port-Mesa schools that spent the year
in scholarly pursuits. Allhougb the
reward for these students is gieater
than any medal they received. almost
every student from the district that
participated came away with one.
There are eight events in the
competition for the lower high
school grade levels, including giv-
ing a four-minute speech the stu-
dent prepared and a one-minute
. impromptu speech. Since most peo-
ple would rather die in a fire than
give a speech, it was an awesome
task for these 14-to -16-year-olds.
They were also tested in math,
English and literature, fine art,
music, world religions and science.
And they wrote an essay.
Estancia High did not have a full
team of nine members, so some indi-
viduals received medals, but it did
not have enough members to rack
up points for a team medal. Corona
del Mar High fielded two teams and
was constantly jumping up for indi-
vidual medals, as well as a first place
team medal in the Super Quiz ro\llld.
I thought their coach was going
to have a heart attack when the
team took second place in Overall
Team points for Division 2 for the
county. Members of the team had
worked together on a junior high
level pentathlon team, so they are a
lean, mean thinking machine,
which will go on to greater achieve-
ments in the next few years.
Costa Mesa Higb has a reputa-
tion as the school that you transfer
out of if you want to get a good
education. Even the kids believe it.
That's why the kids on the team
weren't expecting any medals, but ..
came to the awards ceremony at
their coach's urging.
So, the eight members were as
surprised as everyone else when ·
they took 16 individµal medals,
including first and third places in
Individual Best Overall in all cate-
gories. Smee one team member bad
to leave early to go to a Drum Une
competition, the team was short for
Super Quiz, but still took second
place team overall. When they
didn't get fifth pl4ce as a team for
ov~all points, they were disap·
pointed, but decided to try again
next year. Most had stopped listen-
ing when Costa Mesa High was
called as the County Champs in
Dtfision 2 for Overall Tham points.

•AT ISSUE: Dennis Rodman stirred
up the Newport Beach City Council
with his 40th birthday party.
I don't understand why the dty of Newport
Beach is so wimpy when it comes to Den·
nis Rodman. It would be so simple to· stop
his rude behavior.
1. Buy a decibel meter and with any
answered call to a home emitting noise above
a certain level, fine the owner $100 on the
first infraction, $500 on the second, $1,000 on
the third and $10,000 on any additional.
Make it worth your while to go out and talk
to Dennis.
2. Any restaurant caught with excessive
~ple, live music or'dancing without a per-
mit, shoo the people out and close them
down for 24 hours. A few days without rev-
enue will get their attention.
Why is this so bard?
BARBARA STREIT

The potential tragedy of the continuing
Dennis Rodman matter is when an emer-
gency occurs requiring immediate police"
attention, and the response is inadequate
because of some incident that may be hap-
pening at his property at the same time, thus

I think the city of Newport Beach needs to
rewrite its city ordinances as they are to put
his behavior in check and to give the city
some accountability or leverage, if you will, in
getting that nonsense to stop, The impotence
of the city of Newport Beach to effectively
curtail his outrageous behavior is as much an
embarrassment to Newport Beach nationally
as the polygamists ar~ to the state of Utah.
to a~ extent in the past, 'to a new level of
awareness and coilsciousn~ in our communi-
ty. His claim as to beihg ~every. day.
may not be far from the mark. but this harass-
ment is not unjustified or unwarranted. Maybe
Rodman would feel less harassed if be moved
from Newport Beach, and be would feel more
at home in another community that would be
more tolerant bis sad and continuing escapades.

· Actually~ it's not up to us. It's up {o the
Newport Beach police to handle the situation.
My one and only comment to you, as a news-
paper, is stop publicizing it and putting it on
the front page. It only propitiates the situa-•
tion. By you giving this clown. any more
advertisement, you're doing for him what
public relations people are being paid for
over the years. So keep it out of the newspa-
per. We, the residents of Corona del Mar and
Newport Beach, are tired of reading about it.
Let's leave it up to the Newport Beach police

really were any sound complaints from his
neighbors at the party. or if it was just some-·
thing the police contrived to be cruel to b.iµl.
They're just looking at any excuse to pi(:}( on
him. They're just digging. It sounds to me like
Dennis Rodman is really not a bad guy. The city
officials just don't like the fact that a successful
black man can hang out and have a good~.

Leave Rodman alone for God's sake. He's
not a criminal. It's a party on the beach. New-
port is out of control; using the SWAT team is
a bit of overkill. Leave him alone,

Well, if the city has to babysit these people, · • ·

Yes, we need a revised noise ordinance in

As a longtime resident and

opportunity to express my com-
plete support for the construction
of a new Mormon temple in
Newport Beach.
Thia magnlltcent structure will
greatly enhance and beautify our

she took over and was great d
so professional. Her first com-
ment was, "The paramedics are
on their way." Then she kept me
calm with the tone she used and
the instructions she gave me.
Within five minutes, six of New-
port's fiqest came through the
door I l)ld opened. One of the
gentlemen came to Dick; the oth-
ers all had their jobs and went
about them.
After assisting Dick, they·sug·
gested he be taken to the hospital
and they would take him, but
inStead it was decided that we
could drive in our own vehicle. As
we got off the elevator in the
underground parking, two of the

we got to our car. Fortunately, our

release as With his
·if>·
" a Navy -~.
fighter pilot in
\YOrld War II, . ,
Ray Rosso was
dra\vn to his (irst
head coachlng job
at Chaffey College,
~ , •. . . .
where he took the school to two
grid championships and one Junior
Rose Bowl victory over an
Oklahoma team in 1947
That was enough to Spdfk a
subsequent visit his way from the
. president of a new college named
,Qrange Coast. The president, Dr.
Basil Peterson, was hopeful the
school's first grid chfef could lead it
to a football title in the near future
after it opened doors in 1948.
Although Chaffey offiaals
bargained to
hold Rosso, be
favored the
coastal enyiron-
ment since that IS
where he and his
family traveled
almost every
weekend to the
seashore, despite
the di.stance.
Rosso's first Don Contrell team won its
first two OCC '1DEllNES contests and later
added a third
triumph, but the team struggled the
balance of the season.
' The ~ond year of the '49 class,
et>owed Wnsid&able promise, but
still didll't have enough champion
figures. The team did finish with an
8-2 record and drew a bowl bid, but
the teem, counting up too many
injuries, voted it down. The ·so season teemed shy of
champlonsh1p grldders, so that
faded u Rosso turned thoughts
toward tha fourtb.aeason.
· However. when the '51 season
airlved, be was certain the odds.
were in OCC's favor stnce it had
d.{awn numerous outstanding
'
athletes from Harbor High,
Huntington Beach, Orange and
the desert. He would stay with a
regular T-formation.
Four of the Harbor High players
hdd been All-Sunset League
material, inducting end Maunce
Langdale. halfback Mel Smalley,
tackle Bob Woodhouse and
halfback Bob Watts.
Other former Tars included
tackle Ed Mayer, tackle Jack Clark
and Jack Meeks, halfback Harlow
Richardson, tackle Roger Pfister,
center Keith Burch and guard Ron
Engle.
The Pirates, still wearing maroon
and gray jerseys Crom the defunct
Los Angeles Dons, played all home
games at Huntmgton Beach High in
'51.
Coast lost three games to
Oregon Tech, Boise, Idaho, and
Harbor JC. It defeated a top
northern team, Santa Rosa, on the
road. It won six Eastern Conference
games after San Bernardino
forfeited its win after being tagged
with two ineligible players from out
of state. San Berdoo had "won• the
game at Huntington Beach, 14-6.
It had to forfe1t four conference
games.
Tackle Bob Woodhouse and
hallback Jess Smith were named
to the first all-conference offensive
team while end Syd Manning,
guard Fred Owens and linebacker
Charley Black were posted on the
first all-conference defensive team.
Fullback Hal Smith and halfback
Johnny Black were voted to the
all-conference second team.
End of the season honors went to
Ed Mayer, accepting the Rod Gould
Memorial Award for most time
played. Owens was named most
valuable player and he and Hal
Smith were named co-captains.
Jess and Hal Smith, Ned Parsons
and Howard Del Miller were top
runners, but the most exceptional
runner was Johnny Black or Palm
Springs. He rushed once for more
than 260 yards ln one game.
Ray Rosso
1\vo of the best defensive backs
were Mel Smalley, '51 graduate of
Harbor High and Charley Black of
Palm Springs.
In closing, Coach Rosso said, "I
consider the '51 team can justifiably
be ranked among the top three of
all OCC football teams for these
reasons:
1. Team success was based on
player's abilities and skills to play
both offense and defense. There
was no platoon football. In this
respect. players had to necessarily
be in better physical condition to
play the required continb.ous
minutes without rest breaks. The
'51 team started fall practice at •ta.st
forward' and set the needed base of
condittoningbyptovingtheywere
ready to go.
2. Team morale was high, team
competition was evident early on.
This competitive atmosphere
formed early awareness that the
team could go all the way and the
team potential to win became a
'given' thing.:
Rosso's summary: "This was a
well-condiboned team, tough
,eJU>ugtr to be. up for every game.
It was a memorable season,
beginning with an opening win
over Santa Rosa (Northern
Callforrua champion in 1950) and
deserved winning the conference
championship.·
In conclusion, Rosso said,
"Realizing th.at was 50 years ago
and most are now in their 60s, I
hope each one can look back and
be very proud -they earned ill·

Houston Harper and Roy Ward .
