Parking garage collapses • Investigators were at the scene Monday evening to determine what caused the structure near Lldo Village to cave in;· ~o one injured . NEWPORT BEACH -A parking garage near Udo W- lage collapsed and was destroyed Monday evening, causing extensive structural damage to an attached office building, authorities said. The front portion of the two- story parking structw'e snapped off the main office buildhlg in the 2800 block of Lafayette Avenue around 5 p.m. MOnday, drag- ging both buildings toward the West Udo Channel, said U. John Blauer of the Newport Beach Fire and Marine Department No one was in the building when the incident OCCUD'ed. nor was anyone hurt. he said. A few cars wnaining in the broken garage had been thrown from their parked positions and rested against bent steel railings. The structure, its floors cracked and caved in, was left leaning toward the bay when the dust settled. Damages had yet to be l1S9eS8ed for the office building, which was put on the market only six months ago with an asking price of $3.5 million, Blauer said. "It is really fortunate nobody got hurt,• he said. Paul Sumner, the owner of the building, could not be reached for comment Monday evening. The area was secured after nearby office and residential buildings were evacuated, Blauer said. Engineers and building inspectors were on the scene Monday, surveying the damage and trying to deter- mine the cause of the collapse. Curious neighbors who came by to look at the fallen structure said they were &bocked. "I didn't hear anything,• said Pat Woodward, who lives near- by. "It's very scary for us." Mark Jackson, a local real estate agent. said he is con- cerned that several buildings along the bayfront may have similar structural problems. "Some of these buildings are 35 years old," he said. •And if they are not maintained over the years, they're going to become weak.• Sandi Brower, who lives in a neighboring complex, said she wasn't worried about her build- ing caving in. •we just moved in here Feb- ruary and we've bad no prob- lems, • she said.

Megan's Law requires those who have been convicted of dangerous sex crimes to register with local law enforcement agencies. It also allows their names and photographs to be made public.

SEAN Htl,l..ER I DAll.Y Pt.OT Alexandra Mazur, 5, counts with her fingers during a classroom exercise at Adams Elementary School in Costa Mesa. en less is more First-graders at Adams Elementary School learn about subtr~ction through traditional and more mod ern methods. Danette Goulet DAILY Plun F urrowing her brow, &-year-old Karla Ruelas counted out eight little fingers with tiny nails pol- ished in pink. . •Tuke away seven,• she said as she began to fold her fingers back down, one by one. •One,• she concluded with a small nod and smile of satisfaction. Karla and her classmates in Michelle Mueller's first-grade class at Adams Elementary School in Cos- ta Mesa were practicing subtraction for an upcoming test. Around the room, there were three activity stations where children each spent about 15 minutes. At each station, Mueller worked with students, giving them various ways to visualize the math problems in their beads -a way to make sub- . traction easier. I plopped down on the carpet and joined a group at their first station, where tliey bad work sheets and tubs of green plastic blocks with numbers on them. The students used the blocks to fill in blank spaces in number sentences. Some were miss- ing the answer, others the first or sec- ond number. A couple of the sheets also dealt with counting by twos, fives and 10s. The fun of it all clearly was dig- ging around in the buckets of plastic number blocks. Next, !'traveled with the group to station two. There, students were given that coarse, horizontal paper with the fat lines and a dotted line down the center. The first-graders wrote their "' • Who: First-grade students in Mkhelle Mueller's class • Where: Adams Elementary School, Costa Mesa • Lesson: Subtraction names and the date at the top. The letters in young Alexandra Mazur's name, I noticed, came to the perfect place on the wide lines -the •A" and the •M• reached the top line and all the others letters just touched the dotted line in the middle. At this station, students ~te a subtraction number sentence by rolling a pair of dice. The reason for this activity, Mueller said, is to help students learn to put the larger number first, then subtract the smaller number from it. It is a concept with which some chil- dren have difficulty, she said. But when the first dice were rolled, 6-year-old Madrice Watkins knew which number came first. •And why are you going to put the eight first, Maurice?• Mueller asked. "Because it's more bigger,• be replied, in a proud, matter-of-fact voice. • At the final station. students used a mathematics computer program that alternated between giving them math problems to answer and play- ing Paddle Ball, a game that, I guess, worked on their coordination and motor skills. In Paddle Ball -a version of Atari's Breakout, the player controls a ball that hits rows of alligators, fish and turtles. Subtraction is a lot more fun than it used to be. • 911 11E a.ASSAOOM is a weekly feature in which Daily Pilot education writer Danette Goulet visits a campus within the Newport-Mesa Unified School District and writes about hef experience.

NEWPORT BEACH Widely considered the city's top issue, John Wayne Air- port did not play a large role in the campaigns of the com- peting growth-control mea- sures appearing on today's ballot.

And ii you wanted to wait around for a couple hours, one night a month you could attend a City Council meeting. A clause in Measure T, which would add parts of the city's traffic phasing ordi- nance to the City Charter, proposes to exempt the so- called airport area from. the changes to the ordinance. "To ensure that this Sec- tion does not impact the ability of the City of New- port Beach to prevent fur- ther expansion of John Wayne Airport or to prevent an increase in commercial jet operations at [the ai.r- port)," the airport area - bounded by Jamboree Road, Bristol Street and Campus Drive -would not be affected by the initiative, the measure reads. Measure T supporters said the exemption would give City Council members a better chance to fight expan- sion of the airport. A 20-year settlement agreement, which limits hours of operation as well as the number of flights at John Wayne, expires in 2005. •Any city council .. . will have their bands full to con- trol the growth of John Wayne Airport," said Clarence Turner, co-chair- man of the Measure T cam- paign. "I would not want to see that area encumbered by anything else." n.trner added that exempting the airport area from the changes would-give council members greater flexibility to work with neighboring cities toward stifling the airport's growth. "If we did not have that exemption in there ... then in order to change anything around the airport, we would have to have a vote of the people-: said Turner.

Measure T supporters-The Irvine Company, Bob Wynn, Marian Bergeson, Bill Ficker, Clarence Turner, Tom Edwards-haven't told you about a clause in Measure T called The Airport Area Exception. It's their secret. The Airport Area ExC4pptlon EXEMPTS the large area on the map from Newport'91'nlfftc Phasing Ordinance. Imagine the traffic.

Jose Cabanillas, a mem- ber of the West Side Improvement Assn., said the plan fails to address several key issues, such as pollution if commercial and residen- tial zones are developed close together.

In other news, the council voted to annex the Santa Ana Country Club and tw~ other unincorporated county islands. The islands include a piece of land between the club and Bristol Street and another parcel at the comer of Bristol Street and Santa Ana Avenue. The city has been attempting to negotiate an agreement to annex the country club, at 20382 New- port Blvd., since March 1997. According to the report, the club has remained •adamantly opposed to becoming part of Costa Mesa," but no one spoke against the annexation or submitted a letter of protest at the meeting. The city will receive 60% of the property tax share revenues for Bristol Street if the Local Agency Formation Commission approves the annexation. If other areas are annexed, that tax share will increase to 70%. · Suspected drunk driver drives car into ravine A · Newport Beach man who drove into a ravine west of 17th Street in Costa Mesa on Sunday evening was not hurt but arrested on suspicion of drunken driving, police said Monday.

The second- largest contribution came from Stop the Dunes Hotel, a group opposing the proposed hotel and convention center at the Newport Dunes Resort. The group gave $10,271 in. postage, printing costs and fli- er designs. · As of Monday, Measure S supporters had spent $65,163.

The sup_poriers ofMea&ure S irizorously (~ht tq delay or It.QR this Master Plan. Here's just one sentence from an eighteen-page letter they sent attacking Hoag's Master Plan: 'above all, no development should be granted for so vague a proposition." -Letter from Measure S Supporters Now Measure S SUllJ!orterS have a new tactic to stqp Ho116's 6aureplans. It is called Measure S. Measure S would delay any new medical treatment facilities at Hoag Hospital beyond the current plans for up to two years. It would subject these proposals to an expensive and divisive citywide vote. Hoag Hospital has a Masterplan to expand its Womens Center and provide improved cancer and cardiac care to the community. The support- ers of Measure S OPPOSED this plan. Is this a good idea? We don't think so. While Hoag has not taken a formal position on Measure S, here's what Hoag said about Measure Sin a recent letter: Hoa& Memorial Hmpital Presb.yteriao Letter. October 6. 2000 "Future building projects, of course are more prob- lematic ... mqreover, the Measure S requirement for a city-wide election would most probably be triggered, adding expense and time (albeit broader voter input) to the process already in place." Citywide Elections Over MINOR Renovations and Improvements . Is it a &ood idea to reQuire citywide elections over proposals to improve hospitals. build museums. expand churches and private schools or renovate restaurants and homes? We don't think so Measure S requires ALL of the above -and lots more. Under Measure S we could have had up to 55 citywide elections over mostly "MINOR" amendments to the general plan over the past ten years. These elections would have cost taxpayers millions. Measure S is a flawed proposal that will force dozens of expensive and 'divisive political campaigns in Newport Beach over "MINOR" neighborhood improvements and renovations. The real "targets" of Measure S are churches, private schools, museums, restaurants and hospitals ~ the pillars of our community. , Measure S OPPOSED by Community Leaders Measure S is opposed by a broad coalitiod' of community leaders who care about Newport's future. Police and fire officials oppose Measure S because it divertS funds needed for public safety. The Chamber of Commerce opposes Measure S because it requires citywide elections for small renovations to existing businesses.

First, there is the future leadership of the country at stake. The race for the presidency EDITORW between George W. Bush and Al Gore is the closest one in recent memory. It appears it will go down to the wire and, for once, be decided here on the West Coast. Then there is the future of Congress. Will the House of Representatives and the Senate continue to be controlled by the GOP? Or will they be tak- en over by the Democrats? The direct opposite applies to the future of the state Legislature, where Republicans would like to take over both the Assem- bly and state Senate.

W:atever their future may old, the girls wearing the pleated plaid of the Newport Harbor High field hockey team have already smiled in the face of sudden death. In an age when defeat often reduces grown men to sobbing zombies, a phenomenon magnified by the presence of television cameras seemingly capable of zooming into a fallen hero's smallest facial pore, the aforementioned Sailors displayed rare perspective after a 1-0 sudden-death overtime loss to Marina in Saturday's Tournament of Champions final. Stunned, crestfallen, disappointed, spent? You bet. But, as far as I could tell, the aftermath of the game's only goal, not quite three minutes into the extra session that followed two scoreless 30-minute halves, left only one Harbor player in tears. And even she was laughing in no time, as she posed with teemmates for postgame pictures to com- memorate the best team in school history. The Sailors ft.nished 19-4-1, including 17 shutouts, as w~ as the only Sunset League title anyone could recall. This is not to suggest they took def~t lightly. Anyone who witnessed this team compete, had to be impressed by its relentless hustle, determination, even dismissal of personal well-being in pursuit of victory.

HELP WANTED Costa Mesa High needs tennis coach COSTA MESA -Costa Mesa High is in need of a qualified boys varsity tennis coach on a walk-on basis. Though lt's not yet off:ldal, the Newport Harbor High football team is a virtual lock to advance lo the postseason. A worst-case scenario (a loss to AJiso Niguel Friday combined with a Woodbridge loss) would create a three-way tie for second and l.eave the Sailors at the whim of a successful com flip to obtain one of the league's final two guaranteed berths. But, even with such misfortune, as the only at-large candidate with seven wins, the Tars would be assured the school's 21st trip to the postseason. •Tue two San Diego col- leges used their local k.now- eledge of the course to theu advantage,• said OCC crew coach Dave Grant. ·But I believe we rowed much bet- ter. It's going to be an exc1bng season.· Coast's freshmen, who left the rest of the held in their wake, were led by their "A" entry, wh1ch won with a com- bination of Mike Krenger.

Those interested should contact Athletic Director Kirk Bauermeister at (714) 424-.. 8763. Meanwhile in Division IX, Costa Mesa could still salvage an at-large bid. A Mesa win over last-place Northwood Thursday. combined with a 1h>y victory over Buena Park and a Baldwin Park win over Bonita (both Thursday), would leave the Mustangs as the division's only at-large candidate with six wins. r7 ,.,, \-· ...... -. . -) .
