is scheduled for Dec. 3.
In addition to food, music and edu-

the dock at the already-historic site.

A hoy.
I have been reading
the 'oommunity feed-
back in the Daily Pilot and
hearing from many people I
speak with around the har-
bor about the changes to the
Christmas Boat Parade. Most
boaters are pleased with the
ch4nge from seven nights to
five nights. It is interesting
that there is not much feed-
back from the restaW'Bilts or
charter boat operators on this
reduction of nights, which
might lessen business.
I am pleased that, with the
work of people who volun-
teer their time, the~ is .un afloat. as 1 mentioned in
an earlier column. Still. I
keep reading the complaints
from those who are in the
two areas the parade will
bypass to help shorten the
route. I can~ bow
people who may not have the
parade pass by next year
feel, but we have to keep in
mind that it is the boat owner
who bas the cost of operation.
And without the boats, there
will not be a parade. The
Newport Harbor Area Cham-
ber of Commeree wisely lis-
tened to the boat owners and
the residents to try and come
up with the correct decision.
I hope if tbs parade
inaeases in participation and
sponsorship, maybe these
areas might be considered to
be re.included in the route.

Festival ~ honor 'West Side St.ary' director
• Newport Beach Film Festival Will give
lifetime achievement award to Robert Wise,
who also steered 'The Sound of Music.'
Hnnthr K Mahal
DAILY PILOT
Robert Wise's study bolds
four Oscars, the Irving Thal-
berg award and honors from
the Directors Guild of Ameri-
ca. On Friday, another laurel
will be heaped upon the
famed film director's bead -
the second-ever Newport
Beach Film Festival Ufetime
Achievement Award.
Wise said he doesn't have
any particular connection to
Newport Beach, but is •very
pleased• to be honored by
the festival, which is held in
the spring.
The award will be present-
ed in conjunction with the
50th anniversary screening of
what Wise calls his "third
best-known film,• •The Day
the Earth Stood Still.• Pro-
ceeds from the event will be
donated to the American Red
Cross National Disaster Relief
Fund.
MI think film is a universal
language,• Wise said. "Films
abroad show people from for·
eign countries bow much
more alike we are than
unalike. It's a means of bring-
ing us closer together.·
Now 87, Wise has directed
more than 30 films -includ-
ing "West Side Story,• "The
Sound of Music,• "The Sand
Pebbles" and the 1963 horror
classic "The Haunting.•

Robert Wfse has directed,•
Mid Gregg Schwenk, execu-
tive director of the film festt·
val •Thia gives people the
cbance to be able to meet the
penon who crafted these leg-
endary films .•
Born in Indiana, Wise
began bis film career in 1938
when .be followed bis older
brother out to Los Angeles to
get a job -be didn't care
wbatkind.
His brother, who worked
in the accounting department
of RKO Studios, set up a num-
ber of appointments for him
with the beads of various stu-
dio departments. The proper-
ty department couldn't use
him, WtSe said, but the head
of film editing needed some-
one with a strong back who
could carry the film reels
back and forth.
After six months, the head
sound effects editor, T.K.
Wood, asked if Wise could
work with him. He learned
how to edit sound,· but soon
realized he wanted more. So
Wise asked if he could be
placed in the picture depart-
ment and became an assis·
tant film editor working
under William Hamilton.
•He was a marvelous edi-
tor,• Wise recalls. "He
brought me along very very
fast ...
Hamilton allowed WISe to
do flnt cuts of several films
and Jhared screen credit with
him. Both their names appear
on the 1939 ve.rsion of the
•Hunchback of Notre
Dame,• starring Charles
Laughton. On his own, Wise
edited several Fred Astaire-
Ginger Roger films and "Citi-
zen Kane."
However, Wise wanted to
direct. He was editing •Curse
of the Cat People" when he
got his chance. The film,
directed by first-timer Gun-
ther Fritsch, was off schedule.
Fritsch •couldn't seem to
shoot more pages of script
every day. It was an 18-day
schedule and he used the
whole schedule and only had
half the script shot,· Wise
said. •1 got a call on Satw'day
from the boss. He said •I have
to take GWlther off the film,
take over: on Monday morn-
ing.' I was thrown in the pool,
sink or swim.•
Wise bad 10 days to com-
plete the film, which he did.
The studio offered him a
directing contract and that
was that.
"The Day the Earth Stood
Still,• a science fiction drama
that tells the tale of a space-
man who comes to Washing-
ton D.C. to warn earthlings
against continuing their vio-
lent ways, is among bis many
successes.
Originally Claude Rains
was the person Wise wanted
to play the spaceman in the
1951 release.
"Fortunately, he was tied
up in a play in New York and
unavailable,· he said.
Michael Rennie, a Holly-
wood unknown wllom Daryl
Zanuck had seen in a play in
London, got the role.
#It was far better for us to
have this man from another
world be someone never seen
before, rather than a well-
known actor,• Wise said.
•Sometimes you get nice
breaks like that.•
His films may not be the-
matically alike, but Wise said
the one thing they do have in
common is a message.
"You can't tell any kind of
a story that between the lines
don't have something to say,•

football coach Dick Freeman was more
concerned with the injwy report than
the scoreboard or the stat sheet.
As Freeman confirmed after the
game, before an estimated 7 ,000 Friday
at Orange Coast College. junior guard-•
linebacker John Daley sustained a
broken wrlst and starting outside
linebacker Jeff Reed went down with a
broken collarbone.
Both will be 0ut an unspecified time,
as will junior lineman Jason Kidusbim,
who aggravated a left ank.Je lnjwy.
The news got worse Sunday, when
Freeman reported senior tight end-
defenslve end Tyler McClellan had
suffered a rib cage lnjwy. Freeman said
thl! full extent of the injury was not
known, but typically the pain involved
with a rib problem can keep players on
the sideline for ext.ended periods.
Freeman im't sure when these players
will return. but contingency plans are
already being formulated to replace
them.
Brad Sperber filled in for Daley on
offense Friday and will continue to be
asked to fill that void.
Reed'S outside 'backer spot was filled
by Keith Long and Matt Wilson, while
Daley's defensive duty was assumed by
MattBoyoe.
Boyce, however, may be lhifted to
end to fill in for McClellan, leaving a
hole at inside linebacker Freeman said
might be taken over by junior Dave
Simon, wbo started one game at end
freeman said his team failed to
overcome Newport Harbor's physical
prowess and joked that the gate receipts

Harbor Hlgh's 47-7
nonleague football
victory over Back Bay

.was ost.ensll)ly the total package.
And for Sailors Coach Jeff
Brinkley, it ceme wrapped with a
birthday ~w. u bis team came
within two failed PA'Ill ol giving him
a point for every candle on his cake.
It was the first time Newport
played on Brtnldey's birthday since
1989, but the result that night. a 7-6
loss to Huntington Beacfi. was hardly
worth celebrating.
This time, there was little for
Brinkley to quibble with after the
Battle of the Bay XL, which played
out before an estimated 7 ,000, many
of whom entered after halftime.
• 1 went out the back door of the
locker room at halftime and was
shocked to see a line of people sWl
waiting to buy tickets,• Brinkley
said. •And it was a really long line.
It was great to see that .kind of
community support.•
Hopefully, the latecomers were
more interested in the sodal scene
than the outame ol the game, wbk::h
was all but academic after the
Sailors' 28-0 first-balf dominance.
The thlld quarter featured more
of the same, as the Sailors began
shuffling in substitutes with little
drop-off in productivity.
Junior backup quarterback Mike
McDonald completed all five of bis
passes for 59 yards and a touchdown.
Junior Rhett Hartsfield, the No. 2
tailback, collected 65 rushing yards
and one touchdown after entering
eer1y in the third quarter and several
other Sailors saw their first varsity

said Baker, referrtng to the fact
that the club paid $71,000 for
its cunent property in April
1923, when Orange County
