DAILY PILOT
COSTA MESA -Karl Kemp, gen-
eral manager for Mesa Consolidated
·0ver the last couple of years, (my
wife, Kay,)'and I have been talking
about what conditions would make it
the right time to retire, and there are .
some cumulative things,· he said.

Karl Ke mp, general manager at the Mesa Consolidated
SEE KEMP PAGE A9 Water District, plans to retire in December after 20 years.
S o here I am on Page 1. Regu-
larly, I am told. Although I
have no reservations about
belonging there, I regard such a
formal elevation in stature with
mixed feelings. Knowing in
advance that I will appear on the
front page takes away the sus-
pense of wondering each week if
my column would be deemed
worthy of Page 1 expitSure -and
then wondering why it wasn't
when it didn't appear there. And
also trying to figure out exactly
what components had to go into a
column to get it on the front page.
It was rather like the old Read-
er's Digest shtick when I was
writing for magazines. The ideal
Reader's Digest story was •How I
Joined the FBI Alter I Found God
and the Republican Party,· and
most of the Digest pickups I
received· over the years contained
some of these elements. So I tried
to figure out the elements I need-
ed to make the front page of the
Pilot but was ~ever quite able to
shake them down. And now the
contest is over. I'm going to be
there anyway.
So, feeling this responsibility
deeply, I'd like to return to France
for one more column to point out
how importAnt and useful it is to
step back periodically from our
own problems and environs and
look at them with an outside per-
spective possible only from an
emotional and geographical dis-
tance. Trying to adjust the tyran-
ny of comfortable personal habits
to another culture builds a certain
amount of character. In my case,
the demands to shape up were
lessened considerably by a toler-
ant and caring hostess who
indulged me outrageously. She
found a toaster that hadn't seen
the light since our last visit and
allowed me to toast yesterday's
baguettes for breakfast. She even
found some peanut butter to put
on the toast.

The French don't understand
breakfast, which isn't surprising
since they are often still at the
dinner table at 11 o'clock, after
which -stuffed to the gills -
they go directly to bed. Our
French lunches could have
passed for dinner in the U.S., and
the evening meal was always a
splendid production of meat
sauces, gowmet vegetables and
exotic cheeses, washed down by
an unending ·now of red wine,
acquired by our host at his local
wine-filling station, where I
watched it pumped into several
large contalnen he carried. - T w I s T & s H 6 UT -••la More from the fair, including today's schedule. C~l!lwolbtg OCl1cl .t Stut See p._.. M and AS SEE BEll PAGE A14 •

Healing the faces
All THE RJGHT LIGHTS
In the back room of a Costa Mesa
beauty parior, Brittany Thacker is
working on a client.
Lights have been strategically
placed around a supine woman
wearing only a white towel, plastic
booties and a headband to k eep the
hair out of her face.
Thacker works methodically,
smoothing out the woman's shoulder
and neck muscles. Thacker is
preparing her for one of he r trade-
mark clay facials.
She starts by cleansing the face,
scrubbing off the surface layer of
dead skin that is unseen to the
human eye. The warm booties are
put on.
A BIG STEP TO COME
After a 15-minute massage that
Facing up to what
she does for a living

muscles, Thacker will do the extrac-
tions -clearing out the blackheads
and other oily buildups.
· Then the big step. The clay mask
will cleanse the woman's face in a
way she can't do at home.
•Yoll make the skin red," Thacker
said, aboutJhe massage. •1t cools
down [the face) and turns it back to
its normal skin tone.•
Thacker has been working on
faces for two years, since she gradu-
ated from a cosmology ~ool's rigor-
ous 600-hour course that took almost
five months to complete.
She plies her trade, as a licensed
aesthetidan, at the Templeton Salon

She is trained in body waxing, lash

County begins countering
anti-airport ad campaign
PAINTED INTO A CORNER
• Pro-El Toro effort
begins with mailers,
Web site and
information kiosks.
Peul O lnton
DAIL\' PILOT
' EL TORO -To counter
reams of South County mailers
and TV ads dressing down
their airport plan for the closed
El Toro Marine Corps Air
Station, Orange County airport
planners have launched their
own public relations campaign.
The formal kickolf, at the
base's Building 83 on
Wednesday morning. came
almost three months after the
Orange County Board of
Supervisors approved it. On
May 1, the board approved a
$3-million contract with lrvine-
based A.mies Communication
for the work.
The program, to be known
as •Just the Facts,• will involve
mailers, more than a d ozen
community meetings around
the county, information kiosks
in strategic locations and a
Web site to offer information.
The campaign is the second
phase of the PR effort. The
county also awarded $5 mil-
lion in March to North County
airport groups to mount a pro-
airport campaign.
The Wednesday launch was
well-received 10 Newport
Beach, a city that has lobbied
hard for an airport at El Toro.
City Manager Hoµier Bludau
said the l)oard majority picked
a good time to begin the effort,
as it moves toward approving
the environmental review of
the airport.
•The timing is great,•
Bludau said. "Now is the time
to rally to put out as many facts
as they have about the airport.
They have been spending
money to obtain the facts.
South County is spending
money not on the facts. Theirs
has been on propaganda.•
Officials and civic leaders
on both sides of the debate
have been pouring money into
the El Toro issue almost since
1993, when the base was
tagged for closure by the fed-
eral government.
South County leaders are
mounting an initiative for
March that would change the
zoning at the base to pave the
way for a central park instead
of the county's 28.8-~illion
annual passenger airport.
"If they want to disclose ~e
truth. tell us that there's not
enough room for two airports in
Orange County and that
there's not enough demand,•
said Meg Waters, s pokes-
woman for a 10-city South
County coalition of cities. ·u
they'd like help about some of
the downsides of an airport,
they've got my phone
number."
In addition to the glossy
mailer, the county announced
plans to host •community open
houses• in 10 cities over the ·
next three months. A meeting
is planned for Costa Mesa in
October.
The county also lalplched a
Web site -hrtp:llwww.eltoro
facts.com -Wednesday.
The county plans to open a
visitor's center at the base in
the fall and install several inter-
active kiosks -one of which
would be located at John
Wayne Airport -around the
county.
The county also announced
a plan to set up an informa-
tional booth at the Orange
County Fair now through
July 23.
The El Toro debate flared
on Tuesday during a live radio
debate on the issue between
leaders of both sides. The 90-
m.inute debate was hosted by
Warren Olney, the host of the
KCRW-FM (89.9) program
"Which Way, L.A.?"

Barbara Lichman, the exec-

event. Liebman said she felt
confident the county would
embrace an airport instead of
Irvine Mayor Larry Agran's
Great Park.
•I think we made the case
for an airport a long time ago,"
Liebman said. ·1 think what
we did ~Tuesday I was destroy

Midway.
Tilis year, the Orange Co\lllty

about seven of which are in the

I took a little tour and tried my

review.
The following sampling of
games will receive a rating of easy,
medium or difficult, and one to four
stars, depending on how much fun
I bad and how cool the prize wa!I.
tmOfMi
One In wins. $2 for one ball or
$3 for five -or so the spiel goes.
Throw a large rubber ball into a big
tub slanted toward you and you can
win one of the stuffed M&M guys.
•All you h.ve to do is listen to
us,• explained llUck Thompson. a
Midway manager. •tf you listen, we
explain exactly how to do It."
Not all's fair in winning and losing,
whether tossing a ball in a basket or popping
balloons with darts
i went one for three.

than done) ***
SllOOPY WATll IUll fUli
There's a winner every time, but
it may not be you. This is a race to
see whose Red Baron reaches the
top fi~. The more players there
are, the bigger the prize is that the
winner gets. It's S2 to play, and the
music is rockin'.
Rating: EASY **
SllOOT 'I'll llOOP, LOH 1111111
Free throws are the name of the
game. Also one shot for S2 or five
for $3, this game is more difficult
than the tub game If you ask me -
of course I'm terrible at basketball.
Every prize is huge.
But don't think that being the
star player on your basketball team
will help you.
•It's always the kids that come
up and win, then the 6-foot. 2-inch
basketball player comes up and
goes 0 for 3, • said David Swan, who
worb the hoops.
I went O for 15, which may be a
record. It would have been $30
worth of tries and nothing to show
for it.
Rating: DIFFICULT **
IOU A UU. UCI•
This is like competitive miniature
skeeball. As players roll a ball up a
small skeeball board, race cars move
across a backdrop. The first racer to
the finish line wins a plush toy.
I raced against one other person
and won.
Rating: MEDIUM **** (win-ning is always fun)
ll1'Y llO. 2:
Throw the dart. pop the balloon.
The noise of a popping balloon is so
much more satisfying than the thud
of a dartboard. This version offers
framed posters as a prize, but
stuffed animals are the lure at other
dart booths. A hint At three darts
for SS, you can't lose.
I broke two balloons with three
darts.

four balls and then sink all four

you win. You decide ahead of time
if you want to pay $2 for a small

Located in the Kiddie Camival,
players have to throw pingpong

NEWPORT BEACH -It
looks like Irvine Co. represen·
tatives won't have a tough time
tonight when they present a
proposed 51,890-square-foot
Bonita Canyon shopping cen·
ter to the city's planning com-
missioners.
The project, called The
Bluffs Shopplng Center, would
sit at the northeast corner of
Bison Avenue and MacArthur
Boulevard. Restaurants and
fast-food places would take up
abt>ut 60% of the center, with
the remaining space reserved
for retail stores.
Company officials said near-
by residents had lobbied for
more dining places. As
University Research Park gets
closer to completion, the
demand for lunchtime restau-
rants is also increasing, said
Jennifer Smith, a company
spokeswoman.
She added that the center
would probably include two
sit-down restaurants and sev·
eral fast-food eateries.
Commission Chairman Ed
Selich said the center, which
will h ave a Mediterranean
design inspired by agricultur·
al compounds in Southern Italy,
Spain and Mexico, seemed like
a "pretty good project.•

In 1996, Irvine officidls

between Newport Beach and

He added that he and his
colleagues ca.fl only review the

the arrangement of buildings,
traffic circulation and land-

the use of the land in detail.

EDllOllALS
Know when ·
to call it quits
W hen the state's
voters passed
Proposition 36,
they saved many drug
users from going to prison
and instead sent them into
rehabilitation.
Those needing the help
may one day live free of
such debilitating hin-
drances. But to make it
happen, such users must be
sent to halfway homes of
whatever sort.
On Willow Lane, in what
is still unincorporated
county land in Costa
Mesa's sphere of influence,
about 30 women live in
three group homes spon-
sor~ by New Directions
for Women, which helps
rehabilitate alcohol and
drug abuseIS.
Though the homes have
'lined the neighborhood
since 1977, it wasn't until
recently that residents
along the s.treet began
somewhat silently protest-
ing such homes ~ signs
reading ·wrong direction
for New Directions."
It seems the group now
wants to buy yet another
home on the str~t, and the
residents want the Costa
Mesa City Council to inter-
vene.
One resident said she
believes •this type of facili-
ty is not safe in a perma-
nent single-family resi-
dence.• Further, she sug-
gested the zoning for the
home be changed to com-
mercial because those
checking in must pay for
the room and board.
According to officials at
New Directions for
Women, there are already
seven homes on three
streets, including Willow
Lane, in the area. The lat-
est would become the
eighth and would host up
to 12 people, including
children.
While such homes serve
wonderful and extremely
necessary purposes, the
companies that administer
· them should regulate their
whereabouts. Creating sev-
en such homes in a small,
concentrated area more
than borders on overkill.
Adding an eighth further
overdoes it.
The group homes should
continue to exist. but
should be spread out into
different areas so as to not
try their neighbors'
patience. The homes may
be extremely safe but may
also ~e a negative ~
ception that, in greater
numbers, could prove wor-
risome to those living near
them.
In this case, seeing that
the homes are in an area
outside its jurisdi<?tion, the
City Council shouldn't
interfere.
However, New Direc-
tions for Women needs to
realize that living next to
those angry neighbors will
only foster that anger and
burn the previously estab-
lished bridges.
So, it would probably be
wise to stop while ahead
on Willow and in lts vicini-
ty, and begin buying
homes elsewhere to start
anew.

Column failed in predicting the future
I am writing in response to Editor
Tony ,Dodero's From the News-
room column in the Daily Pilot on
July 9 (•finally, it's time to start mak-
ing those Crystal Cove reservations•)
pertaining to Crystal Cove.
Dodero may be an excellent editor
but he fails as a visionary. He hopes
to be on the waiting list to reserve a
cottage for $100 a night.
Prepare to wait for an eternity.
The state of California Deport-
ment of Parks and Recreation is not
prepared or financed to deal with the
restoration of the cottages.
Past performance by the depart-
ment is a clear indication of future
results. Just look at the six cottages
that have been vacant for the past
several years. State parks bad every
opportunity to prove their ability
while these cottages were in their
Al .Winger
COMMUNITY COMMENTARY
custody. These six cottages have
deteriorated beyond repair.
They have been vandalized.
Vagrants have occupied them, and
the agency just observed these
actions without ta.king any affirma-
tive action. State parks missed an
excellent opportunity to preserve and
restore the six cottages to prove to
the public that they had the ability to
do what they are now promising.
. After more than 22 years of own-
ership of Crystal Cove, Colif ornia
State Parks is still trying to determine
if the cottages have termites, lead
paint and asbestos. What a bunch of
idiots. The termites are holding
-hands together to maintain structu.rC
integrity of the cottages. .. ..
I believe that the agency may have-
a bidden agenda. Spend multiple years
in planning and sowing fiMrviog and..
in the interim, let the cpttages self.

U you ever stay at Crystal Cove
overnight, it will be in a sleeping bag
on the beach. No, that won't work
either because you can't stay on the
beach after sunset. .
U Dodero can get a reservation for
a cottage at Crystal Cove for $100
per night in the next 10 years, I will.
be happy to pick up -the tab.

'Ihldy Ohlig-Hall, the boerd's

ber~ as as an efficient man
who was good at weathering
storms.
"He really thought of the
community's water needs," she
said. "He was tough but very
c:ompassiocate and very focused
on serving Mesa's customers by
providing reliable, safe and cost-
effective water. He was always
clean. neat and accurate, with-
out a hair out of place, and those
characteristics were reflected in
his work too. The boa.rd and
[Kemp) have had a few storms
to battle during his tenure, but
be knew how to relate to his
board and. in the end, the results
were always great.•
Among the storms he had to
battle include public criticism
in 1993, when the board was
considering a 23% rate hike.
The board eventually
approved a 21 % rate increase
instead of the 23%, raising the
average single-family bill by $9
fNe:ry two mmlbs, but residerrts
crttidzed the di.ltrlct'• travel m:pm-. which tndJJded more
than $46,000 the previous year

for the 1993-9" f1lcal year.
In response, Kemp recom-
mended that the directon cut
their travel l!lpemel to $13,800.
Other residents opposed
Kemp's prlvate bathroool. which
had been built in his new office
as a less than $.1,000 part of a
$2.2-million project beginning in
1991 to renovate the distrfct's
Placentia Avenue headquarters.
In 1995, Kemp drew com-
plaints from residents who felt
be wielded too mudl authcrity in
the district and received a repri-
mand Iran Oblig-HaD for not fol-
Jowing up oo two of her requests.
That same year, Kemp also
faced formal complaints from
two former district employees
who alleged that he knew about
sexual discrimination and
harassment at the district and
did nothing to discipline the
supervisors in charge.
The dlSfrict paid a total of
$170,000 to settle both claims,
and Ohlig-Hall said he worked
to get everything worked out.
•He really worked hard on
that with the staff and the board.

Two weeks later, Kemp

Summer Solstice has been a
long-standing pet charity of Anton
Segentrom and South Coast Plaza.
The junior Segerstrom offers his
full support to Hatleberg and ral-
lies his considerable resources to
ensure the success of the fine food
and wine evening that transforms
three levels of the former Crystal
Court into nothing short of a spec-
tacular American summer street
fair.
Many Jocal restaurants pull out an the stops to serve the crowd a
delicious taste of Orange County.
The wine flows. Desserts are beau-

old friends meet new and, ultimate-

over to the Second Harvest Food

This year, close to $40,000 was
raised to help feed people not for-
tunate enough to attend such a fes-
tival. While there are some who
find the concept of a wine and food
feast designed to raise funds to
feed the hungry somewhat ironic,
there are countless more who sim-
ply look to the bottom line. To para-
phrase the philosophy of HaUe-

the people. And that is all that mat-

f I have said it once, I

We a.re so lucky to live

La Fogata on East Coast
'Highway in Corona del

~the •hood,• leans way
toward the lean in the 1-am-
soing-to-hit-the-trainers-
.either-before-or-after-this-
meal style of Southern Cali-
fornians. But La Fogata
does it very well. If the
standard wait in line is any
indication, a number of peo-
ple are probably not too
happy I am giving this
semi-secret away.
La Fogata promotes its
food as •healthy Mexican
grill and rotisserie chiclc-
en. • I wonder if that is like
when my parents introduce
us as •our children and
Kathy.•
·we care about your
health,• the restaurant says,
and their menu gives a list
of all the ways they work
toward a thinner and more
wlified nation -choles-
terol-free olive oll, lard-free
·ooans, organic blue and red
com tortillas, grilled.-not-
fried vegetables, baked-not-
tped chile rellenos and an
~ssortment of vegetarian
dishes. In fact, I was always
a little reluctant to go to La
Pogata because of ~ts
emphasis on fresh veg~ta
bles.
Hans Khademi, the o'wn-
er, started La Pogata after
failing to find a restaurant
where the food agreed with
him and he felt better for
having eaten. He says
restaurants have •a respon-
sibility not to poison their
guests• with old produce,
pesticides and ll)Ucho lard. I
couldn't agree with him
more.
La Fogata means "bon-
fire" according to my friend
and authority in all things
Mexican, George, and the
name must come from the
raging rotisserie displayed
in the window for all to see.
A nice place to sit next to in
the winter, but in the sum-
mer, With a mouthful of
poblano chiles, it's hot!
There are several rela-
tively new restaurants that
offer dine-in or takeout Cal-
ifornia fresh Mexican food,
but La Fogata stands out for
several reasons, the rotis-·
serie chicken being the
main one. The aroma is tan-
talizing, and you can smell
it throughout the block.
La Fogata advertises that
its chicken is ·Zaclcy
Fresh.• I don't know if this
means anything to you, but
to a person who has been
on a Tyson chicken boycott
for the last nine or so years,
or lo a person who just likes
to know that his or her
chicken lived (and died)
only a few short hours
away, this is good news.
Don't get me started on
chicken.

The best seller in this

of these.
The chile rellenos (two
for $6.49) are truly baked,

I think this movie is proof

that they are not usually tak·

BELL
CONTINUED FROM A 1
Our bOltl even made
arrangements at the local
bakery to let u1de a c0py of
the International Herald· n'i·
bune for me each day so I
could follow tbe de1Cet1t of
the California Angels and
George W. BUib lnto a kind
of bumbling chaos whlle I
was away.
I had to confront both the
scarcity of gln and the
omnipresence of dogs. Order·
ing a mptinl i.o a Normandy
restaurant gets a brand of
wine by that name, and
ordering gin gets either noth-
ing at all or a label called
Mulligan's, which I've never
seen before or since. But I
enjoyed fantasizing an Irish-
man named Mulligan selling
bathtub gin to the good peo-
ple of Normandy off the tail-
gate or his pickup.
As for the dogs, they col11d
be found in quantity in some
highly unlikely places. Tb.it
was espedally impn!llSive at
Mont Saint·Mic:bel, where my
wife and I competed for space
with dozens ol French vUitora
whQ were dragging, carrying
or goading dogs up the .ever·
al miles of stepe to the mag-
nificent cathedral. Dogs were
also quite common in restAu·
rants -in Paris, as well as
the countryside. There
seemed an odd sort of bond
-more equality than master
or mistress -between the
French and their dogs.
But these observations are
scarcely the stuff of Page 1, so
let's bring 1t closer to home by
looking at the wildly contrast-
ing ways in which France and
the United States deal with
moral issues and politics.
The quick take is that
France separates them and
we combine them. The most
obvious example is abortion.
France is about 90% Roman
Catholic, which would lead
one to suspect that any politi-
. .
dan who ran on an antiabor·
tion platform would be a
shoo-In. Not so, said the
Prench people with whom we
d.lscussed this. Such a candi-
date would simply puzzle
French voters who don't
regard abortion u a political
issue but rather one to be
addressed and resolved by
the individual involved.
The same type of reason;
Ing. we were told, applies to
such issues now current in
the U.S. as the RU-486 so-
called abortion pill, stem-cell
research and the private life
of polltldans. The French
thin.k we're a little bit addled
on all these matters. While
our politicians agonize over
what position will produce
the greatest political capital
-or prevent the greatest
political harm -the French
regard them as medical or
social issues to be druVt with
outside the political process.
No more graphic example
can be found than the very
visible presence of former
French President Mitterrand's
mistreu at his funeral.
But to leave Prance on ~
high note, I must tell you
about my birthday balloon.
>.. I've written several timf»
before, one of my oelgbbon
is 'neb Hetning, who creates
the balloon dilplays for IUCb
major events.as ~r Bowls •
and politica.1 conventions and
11mes Square on New Year's
.Eve. SO"'ll'eb and a group of
our neighbors came up with
the ide~ of sending me an
enormous inflated balloon
within a balloon to wish me a
happy birthday.
It arrived mlraetllously
unscathed in a huge box on
the morning of July 4 and
became an instant wonder in
the rural community of 15th
century condos where our
friends live. It also reminded
me of how good it was going
to be to gel back home.

Pack the sun.screen and water
bottles. The heat is on for Tea
Cup Classic V.
The venerable 18-hole
championship for women's club
champions in the Daily Pilot
circulation -July 27 at Newport
Beach Country Club With a 1 p.m.
tea time -could be the most
competitive ever played in the
5-year-old event.
And that includes last year's
playoff between eventual winner
Marianne Towersey (Santa Ana
Country Qub) and Debbie Albright
(Newport Beach), when Tea Cup
aassic IV at Big Canyon Country
Club barely finished before summer's
dark.
Towersey, the three-time
defending Tea Cup champion, is the
player to beat 1\vo months ago,
Towersey won a similar event hosted
by an Orange County golf
publication, which invites all club
champions from Orange County.
#So, some of these women in the
Tea Cup Classic aren't just the best
players (in the Newport-Mesa
community), but all of Orange
County,• said grandmother and
entrepreneur Denise Woodard, who
has captured six straight titles at
Mesa Verde Country Oub and is one
of three Tea Cup participants to have
played every summer (along with
Towersey and Albright).
Thwersey, who will play
later this year in the U.S.
Wotnen's Mid-Amateur
championship in St. Louis,
should see a tremendous
dtallenge from Albrtgbt on
ber home course ln tlie
locally famoU$ Tua Cup
Classic, while Woodard and
Canyon to compete in tbe
event in four yea.rs,
I following Selby Schriber,
s8.uy Holstein and Colette
Taormina.
' newcomer OllYia Slutzky of
Big Canyon should provide Richard Dunn
added drama in the cozy ,
Schriber won the
inaugural Tea Cuptn 1997,
then automatically qualified
the following year, when the
golf cowse at Big Canyon
was being remodeled and
the women's club
championship was not
, one-day celebration of GOLF
men's golf.
"I played against Denise
(Women's Southern California Golf
Association) team play last month
and she's playing very well,~
Towersey said'.
Slutzky, who shoots in the 10s,
earned her inaugural Tea Cup
invitation by capturing this year's Big
Canyon title by 26 strokes.
The 33-year-old Slutzky is not only
the youngest player in the history of
the four-lady field, but the most
in~ced. She also had never
played Newport Beach Country Qub
Until her Tea Cup invitation.
But. in a one-day golf event, that
could all work to her advantage.
Slutzky, who has lowered her
handicap from double digits to a 3.5
in about a year, will become the
fourth different player from Big .
played.
•she's an exciting
addition (to the Tea Cup
Classic),• Towersey said of Slutzky.
In Woodard's cue. the owner of
Mail Boxes Etc. in Costa Mesa, she
won her sixth straight Mesa Verde
title this year by 27 shots and is now
tied with Natalle King for the all-time
lead in Mesa Verde women's dub
championships.
But Woodard, the only
grandmother and full-time working
woman in the Tea Cup field, has
been bombarded this year with an
increase in business. Her store has
reached No. t in Orange County for
mail boxes and shipping.
"I just wanted a bobby a few years
ago, and now it has turned into a
freight train out of control,• Woodard
541d. "It's growing faster than I can
handle. I Just hited a couple more
girts."
Even though Woodard is no longer
the Mesa Verde team captain in
WSCGA competition1 her golf game
bas' improved. Compared to li~r 2000
club Championship, Woodard shot 20
strokes '°wer (315) to win this year's
title.
For Albright. she ran away trom ·
the field again at Newport Beach, this
time winning by 19 strokes to secure
her sixth straight club championship.
The vivacious blond and mother of
~o young teenagers enters Tea Cup
Classic V with lofty credentials
(a t handicap) and two bridesmaid
finishes in the Tea Cup (1991 and
200o). . •
Last year, Albright lost to
Towersey in a one-hole playoff, and,
in the inaugural Tea Cup at Newport
Beach, shot 79 and finished behind
Scbrlber (74).
Albright, 43, and her 14:year-old
daughter, Katie, ~together
regularly. •1t gives us sO'mething to do
when the boys are fishing,• she said
of her husband, Jock. and son,
Charlie.
Toweney'• 17th Santa Ana title in
the last 20 years tied Dee Dee White
of Newport Beach Country Club
as the all·ttme leader in club
championships (men or women) In
the Newport-Mesa community.
Towersey, who will try to qualify
for the U.S. Women's Amateur in
early August while visi1ing relatives
in St. Paul, Minn., woo this year's
Santa Ana club championship by 25
strokes, carding a remarkable
74-76-74-77~1.
"That might have been my lowest
(total) score,• said Towersey, who
won the 1999 Santa Ana
championship by 36 strokes after
shooting 301.
Towersey, a Newport Harbor High
golf coach, is one oft.he reasons the
Tea Cup Classic was launched by this
sports section in 1997.
The event, pa.rt of the Fletcher
Jones Motorcars/Daily Pilot Oub
Championship Series, is an avenue to
bring the Newport-Mesa golf
community closer together and
promote women's golf in the area,
which some can argue is among the
best anywhere.
FYI: For the Ufth straight year, the
Tea Cup aassic will be played on a
Friday.
