Mesa delightful bits of Its his-

Christmas Boat Parade and
the Balboa Island ferry. His
father, Joseph, pr~ much
made Balboa Island what It is
today.
In 2000, Allan Beek -not·

planning commissioner, occa-
sional council hopeful and an
expert at marching to his own
drum -stamped his name
firmly into the history boots.
His creation, the Greenlight
Initiative, is poised to change
the landscape of Newport

since the Irvine Co.

tf It were only that simple.
The fall saw one of the
most expensive elections in
Newport Beach history as pro-
ponents and opponents
barked about traffic and, par·
tlcularly In the case of the
opponents, spent copious
amounts of money to sway
voters to their side.
The voters saw green,
passing the initiative by a
wide margin and turning
down a competing measure.
And behind It all was
Beek. the Dally Pilot's News·

For 54 years, the redbrick building on the

has been running for the last two
weeks on a trial basis at Harbor

The md.Jcator light turns red at
the same tune the signal does. mak·
mg 1t possible for ofhcers to watch
the signal change from behind.
"ln the past, they had to wait in
the same direction as the motorist,·
Carver said. "That was neither safe
nor effective. This 1S just better
enforcement.·
Earlier th.ts year. Newport Beach
pohce also UlStalled red-light indt·
cators at a couple of intersections.
The indicators cost about $70 a
piece, and eight are installed in
each intersection. Costa Mesa's
equipment. so far, has been entirely
funded by the city's traffic engi-
neering department, Carver said.
The dty plans to install the indi-
cators at other •problem intersec-

2001 predictions: U7ho knows? Maybe theJl ll come true
A year ago, I wrote
about "Criswell,• the
flamboyant prognosti-
cator who was not atraid to
stick bis neck out, Criswell's
annual New Year's Eve
appearances on the "Tonight
Show with Johnny Carson•
caused a lot of controversy,
not only because of his man-
ner of dress and speech but
also because his predictions
were so far out. They were
rarely, if ever, correct.
This year, the spotlight is
on astrologer Jeanne Dixon,
whose powers of pr:ediction
were no more potent than
Criswell's but for one event:
One of her big forecasts
came true.
In 1956, Parade magazine
quoted Dixon as predicting
that a Democratic president
elected in 1960, a tall young
man with blue eyes and
brown hair, would die in '
office. Dixon told interview-
ers the president would be
assassinated, a comment
they refused to publish. An
advisor to many famous
Steve Smith
WHAT'S UP?
clients. including Ronald and
Nancy Reagan, Dixon rose to
national prominence for her
prediction regarding John F.
Kennedy. Nancy Reagan,
ridiculed by the press for her
reliance on an astrologer,
chose to fight back by pro-
claiming Dixon had lost her
powers and gave her astrolo-
gy business to Dixon rival
Joan Quigley.
Dixon didn't manage to
get many more correct pre-
dictions besides the Kennedy
events, but she was still pub-
lished regularly in the
tabloids. She predicted, for
instanee, that World War Ill
would begin in 1958 over the
off.shore Chinese islands of'-
Que:qioy and Matsu, that
laoor leader Walter Reuther
would run for president in
1964 and that the Soviets
would land the first man on
the moon. All wrong.
For 1997, Dixon predicted
actor Alec Baldwin would
become terribly ill, comedian
Ellen DeGeneres would haye
a run-in with the Secret Ser-
vice when she crashed the
presidential inauguration
and a plane woWd crash in
late October. All wrong.
Dixon died in 1997. No,
she did not correctly predict
that. But, in the spirit of
Jeanne Dixon, I present my
second annual predictions
for Newport Beach and Cos-
ta Mesa for 2001:
1. The Back Bay dredging
will be revealed to be a
secret project to construct a
moat around most of New-
port Beach. Having already
alienated itself from the rest
of the county and now a cer-
tified island, the city will
declare itself a sovereign
nation and refuse to allow
jets in its airspace.
2. Artist Christo, the fe l-
low Who put the yellow
umbrellas in Tejon Canyon
and.dropped a yellow cur-
tain across a California
canyon, will combine forces
next Christmas with Trinity
Broadcasting and the Balboa
Bay Club to drape the entJ.re
cities of Costa Mesa and
Newport Beach in yellow
holiday lights.
3. Rock Harbor Church,
seeking to relocate on the
Orange County Fairgrounds,
will be denied a spot. Call -
fomia officials will cite sepd -
ration of church and state as
the reason. Rock Harbor will
protest and, as part of the
compromise, U.S. currency
will be banned from the fair-
grounds until it does not con-
tain the words, "In God We
Trust."
4. Costa Mesa Council-
man Chris Steel will awaken
one morning with the ability
to hear the thoughts of the
Latino residents on Costa
Mesa's Westside. A movie
will be made of his adven-
ture, which will be called
"What Decent People Want."
5. The Pacific Amphithe-
ater (that's the cool venue in
the fairgrounds) will
announce plans to build a
roof over the location to con-
tain the noise to avoid dis-
turbing the residents of
neighbonng College Park.
College Park residents will
protest the plans, however,
citing construction noise as
the reason.
6. The Cannery restau-
rant, still vacant, will become
the marvel of modem manu-
facturing and technology by
transforming into a si te for
food processing. It will
become ... a cannery.
7. The homeowner!> who
dre encroaching on the pub-
lic land that is Fairview Park
will receive a bill for the
dppropriate back property
laxes. Enc~oachrnent will
end faster than you can say,
"Who, me?"
8. Tina New, key prosecu-
bon witness in the Eric Bech-
ler murder trial, will get her
15 minutes of fame as a host
of a cable television talk
show, the n a radio talk show
on a station to which no one
liste ns. In October, she will
pull a rubber mask off her
face and re veal herself to be
Kato Kaelin. · ·
9. The California Depart·
menl of lTansportation, in an
effort to encourage mass
lransi t, will start to iSsue an
annual award for the most
efficient transportation sys-
tem in the nation. The first
award will go to the little
trams that run around
Fauv1ew Park on the third
weekend ot every month.
For 2001. I wi.sh you
peace, JOY and good health.

Enjoyi,ng a cold, cold Christmas in Minnesota TN;CA.n1
W IDTE CHRIST-
MAS: As you read
this column, Bar-
bara. Stacy, Jodi and I have
returned from celebrating a
wbtte Christmas (the first for
Stacy and Jodi) in Minneapo-
lis with my brother, LeRoy.
Before we left for Min-
nesota, Barbara and I
enjoyed a Chr:istma.s Boat
Parade party at the Balboa
Bay Cub home of Mr. and
Mn. Lynn Jackson on Mon-
day with many members of
the Balboa Bay Cub's Six
O'Clockers. It was especially
good to see Barbara's friend
Uoyd Winburn, who is well
on his way to recovering from
recent health problems.
Early Dec. 19, I attended
the "December Magic" pro-
gram at Pomona Elementary
School to hear schoolchildren
sing the songs of the season:
"Merry Christmas Santa,• •A nme for Love,. Over the Riv-
er and lbrough the Woods,•
"Hanukkah nme· and
"Good Things Come in Llttle
Packages.• How inspiring!
Stmnar programs were held
at elementary schools
throughout Newport-Mesa,
much to the delight of par-
ents and grandparents of the
partidpating students.
That evening, we boarded
the Christmas Boat Parade's
lead boat, a 57-foot yacht
named Pilothouse, skippefed
by Garret Martin and provid-
ed by McKlnna Yachts of
Southern California to host
VIPs (as chief executive of
the Orange Chamber of
Jim de Boom
COMMUNITY & CLUBS
Commerce, my wife was the
VIP). Our host was Judy
Woolen of The Gas Co., a
presenting sponsor of the
parade along with the Los
Angeles Tunes and Dyson &
Dyson Real Estate. Chamber
Vice President Jeff Parker
served as the master of cere-
monies for the evening, and
Karin Graves coordinated the
evening's food, which was
catered by Chimayo Grill.
The view of the Ring of
Llghts -the homes sur-
rounding the parade route -
was magnificent. More
homes than ever were beau-
tifully decorated. The Balboa
Pavilion never looked better.
The Balboa Bay Club was
bright with 300,000 lights.
The Ring of lights judges
must have bad a difficult time
choosing the winners of the
various categories.
I understand that restaura-
teur Clayton Shurley, one of
the Ring of Llghts judges,
won the first Brett Hempblll
Award (Brett is this year's
boat parade chair and also a
judge), as he forgot the

building as a place of worship
Young said lt is equally impor~
tant to mark the end of the
chwch's life. There is a controversial
discussion ln the a1r
this week. A topic of
epic, even cataclysmic pro-
portions, a subjec;t that sep-
arates us into haves and
have nots.
The topic is the tree -
the Christmas tree, that is.
The former conduit of holi-
day cheer, good tidings and
familial bliss, the tree turns,
overnight, into a fire hazard,
dust collector and depress-
ing reminder of impending
Visa bills, thank-you notes
and another week's vacation
with the kids asking,
"What's next?•
Some people can find
happiness with their tree
past Christmas Day. I've
known a few families who
can even ride the Epiphany
train until January hits dou-
ble digits. However, being
the self-professed type A
personality that I am, I have
never been able to find
much joy in the tree after
the big day. Without the
packages, the tree just looks
like a home for dust bun-
nies, the brittle needles
falling to the floor and mag-
ically walking into other
rooms of the house.
Earlier in the month, the
ornaments and lights have
been a jolly reminder of
Christmases past. Now they
are merely gathering anoth-
er layer of dust to be
removed before being

stored for another 11-month
nap.
ln December, I fill my
home with beloved holiday
clutter, adding more mad-
ness to the usual mayhem.
Bring in a few more poinset-
tias, paperwhites and
amaryllis. Stack up the
kitchen counter with plates
of cookies, fudge and festive
snacks. Buy live greens for
the dining room table. At
Christmas, more is good and
bigger is better. And I like it.
But there is something
about the day after Christ-
mas that just puts my nest-
ing instincts into overdrive. I
am not alone; I see plenty of
other trees waiting for the
city compost truck to come
by. One of my cleaning
cronies confessed this week
that she heard the trash
trucks coming down the
street, yelled for her hus-
band to drag the tree out-
side while she and her boys

were plucking the lights
and ornaments off the
branches before they said
their final and swift good-
byes. Much to her dismay,
the truck was not picking
up the ttees that day. At
least the tree was outside,
that mission was accom-
plished.
In our house, it starts
with the tree and then car-
ries over to the kitchen, the
kids' closets and the house-
plants -U it's not nailed
down, it's entirely likely that
my post-Christmas minimal-
ism will cause the trash cans

how, as much as I love the
stuff, I also love shedding it
-and then some.
I love to start the new
year clean, lean and mean.
Heaven knows piles accu-
mulate quickly enough
a.ro\ind here, and the stack
of presents that Chrlsbnas
brings takes long enough to
find a home in closets,
drawers and desktops.
But just in case you're
feeling overwhelmed, listen
to th.is. There is a man in
New York City who sports a
collection of Christmas
ornaments that number in
the thousands. He decorates
10 trees in his three-story
brownstone every year. The
large tree in the living room
is annually laden with more

While the new build!Dgwoo't
look like the old church from
the outside, Young seid it's the
inside that counts.
•Once you come in and
become part of the family, the
exterior is not as important.• she
said, adding that the new
church's dark wooden ceilings
and furnishings would stay true
to the look congregants have
come to cherish.
Before the existing building
will be tom down at the end of
January, much of the fwniture
-such as the altar, the pews,
the lecterns and the pulpit, as
well as the stained-glass win-
dows -will be removed. To
provide a sense of continuity,
they'll be used in the new build-
ing, Young said.
The church's rector, the Rev.
David Anderson. said the last
service at the old church would
be filled with grief and joy. While
many will mourn the passing of
a building that has been the
place for their baptisms and
weddings, it will also be a time
to give thanks for a change to
move ahead.

parts of the church might be
used to construct other build-
ings elsewhere.
•After 50-odd years, God's

she said.'
Within a year, and almost
exactly 55 years after the eXlSt-
ing church was dedicated, con-
gregants will move into the new
building just in time for next
Christmas, she said.
The new church ls part of a
complete remodeling of the
parish's buildings. A new pansh
hall, day school and admirus-
tration buildings already opened
four years ago.
Since the new buildings
opened, the congregation has
grown by about 20%, ma.king
the construction of a larger
church even more necessary,
Young said.
She added that about $1 .8
million bas already been ralSed
to build the church, which will
cost about $3.4 million. The first
phase of the remodeling will
cost about the same.
Until the new church is ready

also be torn down to make place

instrument tucked under his
chin, swaying as he played.

violins led by Newport Beach
native Joe McNalley.
The unusual violins were
created by 89-year-old luthi-
er Carleen M. Hutchins, for
whom the group is named.
There are eight violins in the
consort -treble, soprano,
mezzo. alto, tenor, baritone,
small bass and contrabass.
·It's amazing to think
these are all violins, • said
Jan Landstrom, a consort
board member.
There are six complete
sets of these instruments. Of
the sets, at least three are in
musewns. The Metropolitan
Museum of Art -which the
consort will' play in the spring
of 2002 -has one, as does
the Musik Museet in Stock-
holm and the Historical
Musical Instruments Collec-
tion at the University of Edin-
burgh in Scotland.
The Hutchins Consort,
however, is now the only
group dedicated to playing
the instruments as a set.
"It wasn't (Carleen
Hutchins') intention to make
instruments to go into muse-
ums,• Joe said. •She made
them to be played.•
And played they are.
Since forming more than a
year ago, the consort bas
done about 17 concerts,
including a tour of Italy.

Tony DeLap's big sculptural paint-
ings are hard to miss. Most of
them are hung prominently on the
walls at the Orange County Museum
of Art.
But then there are the ones you
have to look for. As you walk through
a square-arch resembling a door
frame, for some reason you look up.
At the top right comer, what looks
like three-quarters of a d.rde peeks
out, Che missing chunk bordering the
straight edges of the door frame -
"Ectoplasm should not be too kinky."
It is a brown-maroon acrylic-Ol\·caD·

fishing line, which continues perpen-
dicularly with another line.
You follow it all the way aaoss the
room and down another segment of
fishing line that bolds a wooden post.
It too does not touch the floor -"The
Greet Escape."
When asked why, DeLap, 73, says,
•1 don't know.•
He created it because the wood
and the steel weighed the seme. It
fascinated him.
DeLap, a Corona del Mar artist
whose exhibit is at the museum
through Jan. 14, mixes illusions and
art, paintings with sculptures and
sharp edges with shadows.
The Ookland native's style has
been called minimalist.
A hardcover book about Del.ap
and bis work -with 80 color plates
and 20 black and white Ulustra.Uom -
was released Friday by Hudson Hills

"It's art that's very pared down in

DeLapsaid.

brate her life was a

Newport Beach Conference and Vis-
itoJS Bmeau. who died in June after
a five-year battle with breast cancer
at the age of 55. No one was a big-

more active and strong. "Rosalind

His death shocked fellow students
at Newport Harbor High School.
Stewart, who in 1999 was named
CIF Southern Section Offensive
Player of the Year 10 Division VI, was
killed in May in an early morning
car crash in Riverside County. Stu-
dents and community members
gathered at the school's football field
in an impromptu, crowded memorial
to the fallen star. who had rushed for
2,404 yards, a school single-season
record, and scored 26 touchdowns.
After starting at Newport Harbor as
a shy freshman, Stewart had blos-
somed into a well-loved, star athlete.
One student pointed out that Stew-
art •proved that we can all look past

heart wishing he could be here.•

Santa Ana's Bowers Musewn. When
she passed away in June after an
extended illness at the age of 72, it
shocked and saddened the many

Anybody m Newport Beach and
Costa Mesa who's ever been hungry
felt a pang in the belly when news
came that the restaurateur died at
the age of 62. His locally famous
Zubie's Chicken Coop -where
peanut shells and sawdust lined the
floors -was the crown of his
empire, began m the early '60s with
a Corona del Mar pizza joint. His
death, just five months after he'd
sold the restaurant to travel wtth lus

NEWPORT BEACH -Like
champions, the Newport Har-
bor High girls water polo
team defended its home pool
and tournament with intense
play Fnday.
Like champions, the
Sailors took down the No. 1
team in Orange County,
Foothill, 5-3, with defense
and a special brand of team-
work. Then, No. 3 Harbor
eased past Santa Margarita
with another sterling defen-
sive performance, 5-1.
And, now it is the Tars
(8-1), with an eight-game
winning streak, who will be
playing for the championship
of the Holiday Cup when they
face Santa Barbara today at
nooo.
•Both games, it was the
defense,• Harbor Coach Bill
Barnett said. •Kathy Belden
just did a great job.·
Sailors senior Katherine
Belden scored with 49 sec-
onds remaining in the third
quarter to tie the game at 3.
Harbor sophomore Annie
Wlgbt scored two quick goals
in the opening minutes of the
fourth quarter as Belden
assisted on Wight's first goal,
and 15 seconds later, Wight
connected on an outside shot
for insurance.
Senior g,.oalle Heather
Deyden turned back seven
shots.
"They're gaining confi-
dence,• Barnett said, •which I
think is very important. •
Said Belden, •1t was very
intense. We were counterat-
tacking back and forth. They
were missing a few good
players, but it was still nice to
beat them. We were the
hunter and they were the
hunted.•
The Sailors were down,
2-1, at hAlftime, but Jenna
Booth, who leads the team
with t• goals, tied the game.
Foothill played without
two of its top pl.ayen, Gebby

three zeros that infused many with
a sense of new beginrung.
And in the Newport-Mesa ath-
letic commuruty, there was. m fact,
plenty new under the 2000 sun.
There was. also, more of the same,
often to an enhanced degree.
The quadrenniw Summer
Olympic Games provided a fresh
landscape for the sporting feats of
established locw stars and Newport
Harbor High teenager Aaron Peir-
sol's homespun humility reflected
the complex wonder of the Olympic
arena through a refreshing prism.
The area's premier sporting
event, the Toshiba Senior Classic,
produced a novel and premature
ending. while Costa Mesa High
product Dennis Paulson stunned
the seemingly stodgy and sanctimo-
nious scorekeepers at Augusta by
claiming the first-round lead at the
Masters.
Orange Coast College football
and Estancia High boys soccer
enjoyed noteworthy, yet surpnsing
success.
More predictably, Jack Nicklaus
and Arnold Palmer penned their
universally known names into local
goll lore.
And, top prep programs at Back
Bay high schools Newport Harbor
and Corona del Mar. compebng for
the second year 1n different leagues
and, by ClF mandate. against play-
off competition with similar enroll-
ment, continued their familiar dom-
inance in sports like boys volleyball,
boys water polo, girls tennis, girls
running and football.
This blend of old and new com-
bined to form the Top 10 sports sto-
ries of the last 12 months, as select-
ed by the Daily Pilot sports staff.

four years earlier in the summer at the Janet Evans
Invitational at use. finished in 1:57.35, Just .59
behind the 24-year-old Krayzelbwg's gold-medal
effort.
It was Peirsol's second-best time in the event, serv-
ing notice to Krayzelburg, who, like Peinol. plans to
compete at the 2004 Games in Athens, Greece, that
he'll have to hold the young standout oft -if he can -
for 48 more months.

featured a regrettable first, as rain washed out the
final round, enabling Allen Doyle to claim the
$195,000 winner's share. Doyle's two-round total (136)
edged Jim Thorpe and Howard 1Witty by one stroke.

COSTA MESA -U anyone knew
where the friendly bounces were on
the Estancia High basketball rims, it's
current Edison Coach Rich Boyce.
Boyce, a former coach for the Eagles
saw his Chargers' squad get happy and
confident with a 79-67 win over the
host Eagles before a combatively fes-
tive crowd at the Coast Holiday Clas-
sic
"I've seen some high-scoring games

afterward. "I knew that no lead is safe
in here. I give Estancia all the credit in
the world. I knew they were going to
be fired up to beat me and my team. It
was a very emotional game tonight.•
The Eagles (4-7) were bitten by the
long-range bug as the Chargers hit 13
three-pointers, nine in the first half.
"We fell behind early and basically
traded baskets with them for the final
three-plus quarters," Estancia Coach
Chris Sorce said. "Last night, we won,
but I wasn't happy with the effort.
Tonight we lost, but I couldn't be hap-.

there. We have nothing to be ashamed
of."
With the loss, the Eagles will take on
Kennedy tonight at 5:50 in the third-

Southern Section playoffs.
But, the Tars were 4-23 her

this season 0-9.
Castillo, a co-captain this

•1bese girls are really

than me and really athletic.•
But, by the end of the
season, Castillo llad earned
a fair share of playmg time,
as well as enhanced
confidence in her skills
*She improved
tremendously over the
summer,• AJbios said.
Castillo averaged 3 9
points last season, scoring
101 points in 26 games and
reaching double figures just
three times.

occurred last week. when
Castillo's team-high 14 points

CONTINUED FROM 81
Youth Team playmg at a tour-
nament in Montreal.
In Harbor's WUl over Santa
Margarita, the Eagles were
without Kristina Kunkel, who
is also at the Montreal tourna-
ment. More than likely, her
presence would not have
made that much of a differ·
ence because the Tars turned
in their best defensive perfor·
mance of the season as
Belden recorded 10 of the
team's 24 steals.
Harbor sophomore Paige
Lansing, who also had one
goal against Foothill, finished
with two scores against Santa
Margarita. She started the
Tars off three minutes into the
game with a lob shot over the
Eagles' Kristen Carfioli .
Two minutes later, Lansing
scored again when she made
a quick cut to the cage and
Booth fed her the ball, aeat·
ing a one-on-one for Lansing.
Belden scored the next two
goals for Harbor as she look
advantage of the extra-player
situation with 3: 10 remaining
in the third quarter. ·
In the fourth, Belden took
a pass from Booth, sped past
Eagles defenders. Wted the
ball above water with her left
hand and gave a quick jab
with her right for the score.
Sailors sisters Erin Ball and
Jessica Ball teamed for the
hnal goal as Jessica finished a
pass from Erin with 17 sec-
onds left.
Deyden finished with
another seven saves against
the Eagles.
•our defense was basical-
ly flawless,· Belden said.
·we wanted to slow things
down a bit. We wanted· to
concentrate on our defense
and take it play by play.•
• The Corona del Mar Sea
Kings were also concentrat-
ing on defense, among other
things. But, they failed lo get
back in the win colwnn after
setbacks 'to Laguna Beach,
3-2, and Marina, 4-2.
Winning, surprisingly, was
not the most important goal
for the Sea Kings (5-5), who
are also co-hosts of the Holi-
day Cup which features the
top teams in Orange County,
and beyond.
Danielle Carlson suffered
pain and soreness and sat out
against Marina, which
caused Coach John Vargas to
alter his lineup and strategy.
Vargas asked his team to
give even a greater effort,
and usually that leads to vic-
tones. But ln this case, he was
plenty happy to receive the
alternative.
"We're ready for league
play now,· he said. ·our
record doesn't reflect it, but
we're ready.~
Carlson and Lindsey Daley
scored one goal each against
Laguna Beach, while Christi-
na Hewko scored two goals
against Marina. Vargas said
Hewko and the Sea Kings
have gained a great amount
of experience in the Holiday
Cup and Hewko agreed, but
there's definitely a need for
improvement.
·we sometimes need more
spuit, • said Hewko who bied
to inspire her teammates by
putting together songs like
"Eye of the Tiger" for the Sea
Kings' warm-ups.
Hewko's upbeat approach
bas nullified the pressure that
could be on her this season.
Vargas said her role has
expanded as she is depended
on for difficult defensive
attacks and quickness on the
offensive end.

•Six lead changes occur in fast-paced game.
IRVINE -Newport Harbor's Jeremy lruelove scored
two goals, while Robert Rutter, Jason Spenser and
Cbue Kelly smacked in one shot each. But it wasn't
enough for the Newport Harbor club roller hockey team.
In a game that featured six lead changes, Harbor was
outlasted by Northwood, 7-5, on Dec. 20 at the Wayne
Gretzky Hock ey Center.
The Cast-paced game seemed to have catered more to
Northwood as it used three playeis to gain goals. The
defense kept Harbor in the game as Ala WbUesldes.,
Brett Roblmon and VlnceDl Mungo broke up
Northwood'& scoring chances.
