cussed his wife's July 1997 disap-
pearance. Bechler, 33, is charged
Wlth murdering 38-year-old Pegye
Bechler by throwing her overboard
during a boating tnp.
He has pleaded not gwlty, saying
that a rogue wave pushed his wife

. Build a little birdhouse
First-graders at Wctoria
Elementary get more than
just a wood shop lesson.
Danette Goulet
DAILY PILOT
W ith their small faces set in
various grimaces of concen-
tration, first-grade students
at Victoria Elementary School built
their very own birdhouses Monday.
Eager students grabbed slabs of
wood as if this was just the easiest
project in the world -even though
some of them didn't know if they
were left-banded or right
Now, if hammers and nails in the
hands of small children seems dan-
gerous to you. put yow-fears to rest
There were several adults closely
monitoring the situation. and it's
impossible for children to smash their
fingers when they hold the hammer
with two bands.
As a helper-it was tmposgble to
merely stand by and watch -I did
get one migh ty whack on the thumb
from the apologetic Lindsey Farney, 7.
Lucky for me, cbildcen also can't
swing the hammer with quite the
same force as an adult.
The woodworking project was the
culmination of an impromptu science
lesson about birds the cbildren bad
been working on. After reading a
story about a girl who watched birds
out of her classroom window, stu-
dents were ent:hralled with the topic,
said teacher Heather McCormick.
MIMI ..
And so they learned about differ-
ent birds, their habitats and their
needs.
McCormlt:k then bad her father,
retired wood shop teacher Keith
McCormick. come in to give students
a half-hour lesson on safety with the
tools, measurement, angles, geome-
try and the right lingo to go along
with their work.
With all that learning out of the
way, it was time for some hands-on
fun.
One group of students stood at the
worktable -tongues inevitably
sticking out, while two littM hands
held death grips on the hammers just
below the heads.
Another group of students sat at
their desks writing a story about the
birdhouse that they were going to
build.
•BiJdhouse fun to lllaJc.e,• wrote
Matthew Fewel, 6. •sildbouse tun
for birds. Birds eat seeds.•
A third group did a printing exer-
cise and drew a picture, while the
last group was planning the designs
they would paint on the bird.house
when it was done.
"I made a robot on mine, •cause
be has all the shapes -a rectangle,
a square and triangles,• announced
Drew Cain. 6, who had apparently
taken the geometry portion to heart.
Lindsey drew dozens upon
dozens of hearts on hers.
"Because it's my nickname too,·
she said of the hearts. •My dad

No injuries and tons of cute bl.rd-
houses made the project a success.

Doily Pilot
A floating mystery
off NewportS shore
I have mentioned before in
these dispatches my
career as a illeguard on
the bayfront and 15th Street,
watching over Nancy, Billy,
Dorothy and Peter while the
mothers of Nancy, Billy,
Dorothy and Peter played
endless rubbers of bridge.
If being a baby sitter is
thrilling, I had a thrilling
job. However, I must admit
that the career of baby-sit-
ting is not considered as
thrilling as, say, skydiving.
However, the excitement
of my job as a lifeguard/
baby sitter had to take sec-
ond place to my career. also
as a illeguard, keeping track
of the Floater.
The Floater was a rather
rotund, middle-aged woman
who came down to the
beach each and every day.
She would march across the
beach, enter the water, lake
a half-dozen floundering
strokes, then flop over on
her back, stretch out her
anns and legs, and float.
She didn't float just to
float. No, sir, my Floater was
a traveling floater. She
would get out into the cur-
rent far enough to pick up
the tide. If it was an incom-
ing tide, she would float up
toward the canneries. If it
was an outgoing tide, she
would float down toward
the Newport Harbor Yacht
Club.
There wasn't too much
thinking involved m baby-
sitting, just counting the
babies from time to tune to
see that no one had
drowned or wandered away,
so I spent an inordinate
amount of time thinking
about the Floater.
Because l was so busy
being a baby sitter, I couldn't
leave my post and follow
Robert Gordner
THE VERDICT
the lady, but there was a
lifeguard at the adjoining
campground, and I asked
him about the Floater. He
Just shrugged and said that
she floated out of his juris-
diction, and he didn't know
exactly where she landed.
I knew some people at
the Newport Harbor Yacht
Club and asked them if the
Floater ever landed there.
They said she floated right
past their club, and the last
thing they saw of her, she
was floating under the
White Bridge that led to Bay
Island.
I came to no conclusions
about the lady and was too
bashful to ask her any
questions. After all, there is
no law against floating,
and she wasn't banning
anyone.
And so I just kept on
counting babies and pulling
them out of the water. I list-
ed every one of those inci·
dents as a rescue and had a
record of rescues never
equaled in the history of the
Newport Beach lifeguard
service.
Yes, sir, being a illeguard
is an exciting job.

GRANT APPLICATION FOR
BEAOt RESTORATION
The city now spends
$35,000 per year for bay
beach restoration. This
allows the city to restore
Newport Beach's most
highly used public
beaches, such as those
on Balboa Island and the
Peninsula. To restore all
public beaches, the city
would need to spend at
least $70,000 for three
years. Recent state legis-
lation has created a
fund to help cities pay
for restoration projects.
Administered by the Cal-
ifornia Department of
Boating and Waterways,
the fund contributes
85% of the costs for
approved projects. A
local 15% match in
either cash or in-kind
services is required.
The city has applied
for a S400,000 grant.
What to expect:
Council members will
probably approve the
application.
CJTY COUNCIL
FINANCE COMMITI'EE
Between 1994 and
1998, the city had a
finance committee, com-
prised of the mayor and
two council members.
The committee reviewed
and monitored events
and issues with a possi·
ble financial effect to the
city. Adams proposed to
reestablish the commit-
tee at the Nov. 28 council
meeting.
What to expect
•Council members are
expected to approve the
reestablishment of the
finance committee.

because Albertsons still holds

EDUCATIONALLY SPEAKING
On holiday lights,
science careers
and vandalism
L ife IS about ma.king choices.
Right now, one of the choices
is whether to put outdoor ho~
day lights at public schools. Another
choice is whether to burn electricity
on outdoor lights when the state is
experiencing an energy crisis.
If people need electricity in their
homes to run a machine for their
health, is it selfish for a school,
home or business to tum on outdoor
lights that might lead to a blackout?
What do the lights mean to
someone who sees them on the
public school, as opposed to what
the decorative lights mean to the
person who put them up? If a par-
ent doesn't agree with a decision
about the lights, should the pa.rent
withdraw support for the school? If
so, what message does that send
to their kids?
Although kids seem to be able to
discuss issues that involve religion,
even tangentially, with a level bead,
I can't say the same for adults. This
might be a good year to tum off the
lights for energy conservation rea-
sons. Then, initiate dialogue, in a
calm manner, about what the lights
might symbolize to others. Let's not
expect that the minority person is
willing to face an ugly mob on this
ISSue. Let's try to put ourselves in
each other's shoes when deciding
what to do for future years.
• • •
If you would like your child to
take a serious look at a career in
science, go to Ask the Scienbsts
Night from 6:30 to 9 p.m. Wednes·
day. This event, sponsored by the
Joint Costa Mesa-Estancia High
School Science Fair Initiative, will
be held at Estancia High's science
court this year. It is open to any-
one, and it's free.
1lris year, 16 scientists are sched-
uled to be there. There will be men
and women, and people of different
ethnicities, so kids can know that
successful scientists come in all
shapes and sizes. The scientists' dis~
ciplines cover ecology, developmen-
tal and cell biology, physics. anato-
my, neurobiology, chemistry, ento-
mology, zoology, neurology, and civ-
il and environmental engineering.
That means that scientists can
talk about whether species are .
becoming extinct and the effect on
the Earth or whether the chemicals
that end up in the water cause
mutations in animals and humans.
They will talk about black holes
and genetic engineering. Instead
of a lecture, these scientists will be
here to answer kids' questions and
interact with tl}em.
Because it is predicted that more
and more of our labor force needs a
science background, these scientists
are taking the time to spark the
name in a yottng student. That way, .
the student can take the right cours-
es in high school to lead them to a
successful scientific college career.
• • •
We've been reading a lot about
school vandalism lately, but the
problem is not new. The high
schools get hit almost every
weekend.
But who does it hurt? It hwts the
students when they don'! get the
benefit of other regularly pezfonned
school maintenance becaute the
maintenance people have to spend
time each Monday ungluing doort
and cleaning up graffiti, the pool
and school groundJ.
My suggestion is to have a
caretaker live on each big~ school
campus. Install a mobile home on
e4Ch site. Let a willlng caretaker
atay in it rent free in exchange for .
just being the eyes and ean of the
community right on Ille. Let's stop
the ruination of our school cam-
pUMI from becoming a regular

COMMUNITY COMMENTARY
DON LEACH I DAl.Y Pl.OT
Cast members, theater supporters and board members gather together to support the Costa Mesa Civic Playhouse on the set of Its current
production, "The Sound of Music." The playhouse ls asking for the community to voice Its support for. the organization.
Costa Mesa Civic Playhouse should be saved
By Yvonne Houssels
M y family and I are very
upset to learn the Costa
Mesa Civic Playhouse
may be tom down and not
replaced in its present location or
even at an alternative location
("Costa Mesa Civic Playhouse asks
for community support,• Nov. 30).
We are encouraged, however,
by Michael Fine, assistant superin-
tendent of finances for the New-
port-Mesa Unified School District,
who stated, •If the theater must
move, the district would do every-
thing it could to help relocate it.·
We think it is essential that the
city and/or the school district pro-
vide a new location.
Community theater is a tremen-
dous asset to any city. It opens the
door to culture for our young peo-
ple and provides them an opportu-
nity to partlapate in the perform-
ing arts, take responsibility in
making sets and learning to work
as a team to put on a production.
Conununity theater also pro-
vides talented adults, who are not
professional actors, the opportunity
to share their performing abilities
~th the community.
This volunteer participation
makes it possible to provide quali-
ty entertainment to the community
at affordable prices for seniors, stu-
dents and families of all income
levels.
I am an actress and have per-
formed at many community the-
aters in the area. My family and I
have been impressed with the pro-
ductions we have seen at the Cos-
ta Mesa Civic Playhouse.
I am pleased to be appearing
now in "The Sound of Music.• I
sincerely hope this will not be the
last production for the Costa Mesa
Civic Playhouse.
Newport Beach has recognized
Measure F failed to rilake the grade
•AT ISSUE: Earlier this month, a Los Angeles
Superior Court judge struck down Measure F
{'Measure gets an F,' Dec. 2). Newport-Mesa
residents say the judge made the right decision
in declaring the initiative unconstitutional.
J udge James Otero made the
correct decision about Mea-
sure F.
Obviously, it had been con-
cocted by opponents of the El
Toro airport and listed undesir-
READERS able develop-.
ments along with RESPOND the a~rport. I'm surpnsed they
dldn't list slaughterhouses and
houses of prostitution.
The judge saw through their
sham and declared Measure F
unconstitutional.
GORDON PATilSON
Irvine
Judge James Otero's decision
to void Measure F was a giant
step to move the El Toro alrport
forward.
The tenor of the decision
appears to leave little room for
any meaningful appeal by South
County residents.
JI I were a resldent of lrvine,
whJch wasted upward of $10 mil·
lion to 1upport Mea.sure P, T sure
would be unhappy. I think the
city got very poor legal advice.
I think lt ls time to move
abeed. The 1Hun to resolve are
11.ze, safety, future air traffic
growth and economic benefits.
Tbese issues can ell be met.
The Federal Aviation Adm1nll·
ttaUoo hu given a preliminary •
safety OK1 the Orange County
Board of Supervilor1 11 reedy for
-·
a downsizing of the proposed El
Toro airport to 12 million to 14
million annual passengers; we
know tremendous traffic growth
is com1ng; and Orange County
Business Council studies show
the great economic benefits.
My personal take is move the
private aviation and air cargo to
El Toro. 1 do not see any problem
in making night-time restrictions
there with this type of use.
We can expand John Wayne
Airport to 10 million annual pas-
sengers without the private
planes and air cargo. When the
time comes for more commercial
air traffic in Orange County, El
Toro will be there.
This scenario would make
John Wayne Airport safer, air
cargo traffic on our freeways
would be reduced and we could
reserve the El Toro airport for
future commercial needs.
Let's be reasonable1 the future
of our great county depends on
cooperation by all sides.

A note of then.ks should be
ext.ended to all who "stayed the
course~ erter the passage of
Measure P.
In politics -like life -you

lMne Councilman Mike Werd
recentfy edmltted Mea1ure P

included jails and hazardous
waste landfills because the El
Toro airport could not be defeat-
ed alone. Judge James Otero
agreed and ruled Measure P
unconstitutional.
To those who a.re prone to sur-
rendering at the first sign of trou-
ble, have a little faith.
El Toro airport can be devel-
oped with far less of an impact
than Is now being experienced
by Newport-Mesa residents, who
live with 140 daily lights from
John Wayne Airport.
DAVID l. ELLIS

• EDITOR'S NOTE: Ellis Is a consultant
for the Airport Working Group, a New-
port Beach organlHtion that Is fighting
against expanding John Wayne Airport
and supports building a second county
airfield at the closed El Toro Marine
Corps Air Station.
Now that fatally flawed Mea-
sure P has been killed, Orange
County can begin flights at Bl
Toro.
The county will ~ave to spend
millions -maybe billions -of
dollars to inf onn citizens about
the two-airport system.
John Wayne Airport has 120
homes tn the noise ione. The

Every day, hundreds of people
suffer because of John Wayne

ing to get mto Orange County,
but the number of Oighll at John

suffering. It's the neighb6ily

the importance of its commuruty
theater, Newport Theater Arts

ater is backed by the city, which
recently helped with renovabons.
1 hope the Newport-Mesa
school district and Costa Mesa will
recognize the need to help the
duldren and young people, as well
as seniors on fixed incomes, have
access to participate and see pro-
ductions by members of their own
communities at a reasonable cost.
Please preserve the Costa Mesa

Arriaga used his goalie
smarts to get the

26-13, but it was OCC that
pulled out the 3-2 win.
Tony Altobelli
DAllY PILOT
W en the final choice bad to be made,
Orange Coast College men's soccer
player Hilario Arriaga decided that,
home is where the heart is.
• J had a choice between OCC and Santa
Ana College when .1 graduated from Estancia
last year,· Arriaga said. •Tue coaches at
OCC were real nice to me and they told me
that no matter where I decided to go, they
would be there for me no matter what. OCC
was also much closer to home so I picked
them and I made the right choice."
Needless to say, comparing success from
the previous year, Arriaga was picking a
longshot in Orange Coast. The Pirates were
3-14-4, while the Dons were the defending
Orange Empire Conference and two-time
defending state champions.
Sure, Santa Ana won the state crown
again, but who would have ever thought the
Dons were going to have to beat the Pirates
in the state finals to three-peat?
OCC went 19-4-4 this year and Arriaga
was a major factor in a majority of those
wins.
Arriaga was put into the fire right away as
the Pirates tried to rebuild what was once a
proud, winning program.
Unlike hls senior year at Estancia when
the Eagles lit up the scoreboard en route to
the CIF Southern Section Division IV title,
Arriaga was the man in the microscope as
shots came his way at a high clip.
"With Estancia, we dominated whoever
we played and I really didn't get a whole lot
of work,• the Daily Pilot College Athlete of
the Mdnth said. "This year, I was involved
more with directing traffic, setting up the
defense and making the big save when we
needed it most.•
Never was that more of a case than in the
state semifinals against undefeated and
untied Santa Rosa. •
With the game tied after regulation and
overtime, 1·1, penalty kicks were used to
"I would look into the
shooters' eyes and try to
figure out where they were
going to kick," Arriaga said.
"Then, I would lean to the
right, letting them think I
was going to dive that way
and then, go to the left.
They seemed to be kicking
to the left a lot on those
PKs."
That quick thinking
allowed Arriaga to make
two big saves, while OCC
ripped four shots into the
back of the net to send the
Pirates to the state finals.
"I told our guys to do
their jobs and I would do
mine," he said. "I just knew
I was going to stop some of those penalty
kicks .•
Perhaps his finest match of the year came
against Santa Ana at home on Nov. 6. The .
Arriaga had 14 saves irf
that game. induding a
sprawling deflection just
seconds before time
expired.
"I've felt really good all
season long,· Arriaga said.
"I've gotten a lot of
confidence as the season
went on and I just had a
belief that this team would
go a long way.•
Arriaga compiled a
18-4-2 record this year,
while compiling 140 saves.
"It's been a lot of fun
playing with these guys,•
Arriaga said. "I'm really
looking forward to next year
because we'll have around
13 guys coming back from this team. We're
all friends on the field and off so we'll be
working hard in the offseason to get even better.·
