I will not support a measure
that tells people how to vote.•
In November, the Orange
County Regional Airport
Authority adopted a resolution
opposing the South County-
becked measure that calls for
a park at the closed Marine
base and halts any plans for
an airport at the site.
Because Costa Mesa ls a
member of the airport author-
ity, it was asked to adopt a sirn·
Uar resolution opposing the
Orange County Central Park
and Nature Reserve lniti6tive.
During public comments,
audience members repeatedly
accused the council of not tek·
ing a strong enough position
against an airport at El Toro.

Some API scOres -
spark celebration
T here was continued
good news from our
schools last week in
the not always easy to
understand fonn of the
Academic Perfonnance
Index. the statewide mea-
swing stick that also com-
pares Callf omia campuses
along socioeconomic demo-
graphics:
• Harbor View Elemen-
tary School in Corona del
Mar once again was the
highest-scoring school in
the county1
• Newport Coast Ele-
mentary School more than
beat the state target of 800
on the 200-to 1,000-point
scale and also received a
highest ranking of 10 when
compared with simtlar
schools:
• Seven Newport-Mesa
schools received that top
comparative ranking, one
more than last year;
• Callf omia Elementary
School became the first
Costa Mesa school to crack
the 800. benchmark with an
808 score, as well as a high
9 ranking compared with
like campuses.
That is a quartet to cele-
brate. But with th.is good
news sheuJd come the same
caution typically raised
when API scores aren't so
" rosy. Numbers are both easy
to manipulate and rather
limited representations of
how students, let alone
schools, are performing.
High schools, for
instance, have a roughly
25o/o change in student
body each year as seniors
graduate and freshmen
take their place. While that
means scores can certalnly
go up, it also means they
can drop. And numbers did
drop at fow schools: Wood-
land, Paularino, Pomona
and Ensign schools. All saw
their statewide ranks
decline.
Are the results at those
four schools the equivalent
of a four..alarm fire? No. But
they do suggest there may
be a bit ~ smoke to put out
on our campuses -before
there are any flames.
Newport-Mesa is a
desirable place to live in
large part because our
schools are so good. Par-
ents, school officials and,
most of all, teachers all
spend much time and effort
to make sure they stay
strong, to stoke a flame we
do want to bum brightly:
the fire of our children's
education. These latest
results seem to show that
fire is hot
LEnER TO THE EDITOR
City should have talked to
Newport Coast residents
Y our Dec. 5 article
(•Challenge to anne x-
ation toued aside •)
concemlng the anneatton of
Newport Coast into Newport
Beach aeates the bnpression
that oppolition was limited to
a single individual. I can only
usume that this was done to
bide the widesptead disen-
dMmtment that exists Ul New-
port Coast for the annexation.
lbe lawsuit you refer to as
·m1ne· was filed by a commu-
nity organization called •A
Simple Vote.· I was simply the
attorney who represented the
group. A Simple Vote ii an
organization made up of hun-
dreds al Newport Coast resi-
dents from almost all the
neigb.borbooc:b of our commu-
nity. More than 20 people took
time out al their busy lives to
walk door to door in support al
tbe fundamental aJOCept of a
llmple right to vote.

willing or able to answer. nus is why we believe that
lt,le dty and the committee
were so afraid of a vote.
This is why we believe the
dty of Newport Beach and
the self-proclaimed Commit-
tee of 2000 could never
answer our fundamental
question: U this deal is so
good for the residents of
Newport Coast. why were
they so afraid of a vote?
There is Wldespread dis-
content over annexation and
widespread mistrust of the
individuals who spearheoded
this adventure. It seems that.
instead of cavalierly dismJ.ss..
Ing the concerns of t"18 peo-
ple they wW soon go-Nn, the

Newport Beach Police Officer Mlke Lektorlck checks the speed ol can on Newport Coast Road with radar.
End the rivalry between
Newport's beach and coast
I was swprtsed to read that some
argue the Newport Beach police are
enforcing speed laws in Newport
Coast solely to reap financial gain
from its wealthy residents (•Police
al.ming to slow down Newport
Coast,• Jan. 19). The mindless infer-
ence in such an argument is that dif-
ferent laws or standards should
apply in Newport Coast and/or that
only Newport Coast residents use
our roads. Let us hope the people
who make IUdl ID argument do not
have drtvets licenlel.
What words <:I Wildoln will they
have after some child or member ol
our community Is mangled or killed
by a speeder? Thank God the police
a.re attempting to prevent such a
tragedy. The polioe should not have to
defend their act of perfonnlng their
duties. Instead of comp1ain1ng, people
should be praising them. Where did
lhls auitude come from that suggests
that law enforcement or dty otfid41s
from Newport Beech must Uptoe
around Newport Coast residents
and/or treat them with kid gloves? I,
for one, welcome them in to protect
and serve. What did the COWlty do for
us? Let me think. Didn't the oounty
misplace mllllons of our tu dollan?
The complaint against the police ls
a wbUe part of a more sinister prob-
lem involving an attempt bf a few to
C"e4te a Newport Coost vertUS New·
port Beach rivalry. I am Uted ol the
wbmlng, attempts to dMde and flivo-
lous lawsuits. The combi.naUon is
good for all concerned. For those who
don't like it. leave. Alternatively, stop
and look around and then thank God
you are fortunate to live here. I here-
by declare the phony rivalry dead.

Recreational vehicles are
unsightly safety hazards
Regarding the dvil adioo queltion:
lt is quite obvious that thoee u.ndvW7.ed
residents of Costa ""1esa who attended
the Colta Mesa Caty Council meeting
about RVs a.re the same residents who
have no coosideration for their neigh·
bon or their neighborhood (•Rudeness
takes over Oty Hall.• Jan. 14). The
behavior of the RV owners wbo oppo&e
the pmkiog ban speaks volumes They
do not have the common aiurte5y to
respect their neighbors' wishes. Bottom
line: RVs do not be.long on our streets.
They a.re a major safety bazard.
ReganDess ol bow well-kept they may
be, they ate unsightly. End of uncivi-
lized dlscumon.

Burciaga defied

I commend you for givirtg the Mir-
na Bwdaga story front-pege head-
linel (•TeWlnkle failed some stu-
denll, u. s. finds,. Oct. 30). It isn't
often that a determined mother and
dti7.en ii able to take on the school

year quest to ensure all Engllsh-lan-
guage learners are being properly
taught mall thea.r classes.

Lawsuit over church

It is a shame that our sod ty has a
bard tune looking rationally at · ues
lbat deal with religlon (•Resident ues

son's strange compulslOO to •defend
the Constitution,• I am gratelul for
the reserved, straightforward manner
in which h has pursued it
Unfortunat ly, I bell ve there will
be large numbers of people (and pat·
UculMly religious groupsl who will
loudly attack Nelson's lawswt and
a.Id in creat.mg a full-blown contro-
versy in the name of defendtng their
religion. I believe this i one matter
that doesn't need defendtng, and
hope that lt will be treated as such in
a case that ls simply wasting Nel-
son's money and, the courts' time.
And I also hope that. if h is suc-

Purtzer, who finisbed five PCA 1bW'

often desa1bed as b.avtng tbe sweetest

But Pwtzer, who turned 50 in
December, Is imply glad lo finally be
jouling the senior circuit.
•Tbe last eight years on the PGA Tbur

l&Kl. ·At my age, it was bard lo compete
Wlth th<>,1ie young guys, es~Uy when
your body bas a few aches and pains and
they are at the top of their game. It kind of •
knocks you down a little bit. I'm cudled
about having the e>pportunity to play with
the guys that have ·
some of the same
aches and pains as I
do.•
U.ke fellow Senior
Tour rookies Ben
Crenshaw, Fuzzy
Zoeller and Wayne
Levi, Purtzer enters a
new brand of golf this
year, playmg shorttr
golf courses with
fewer holes (54 instead Richard Dum
of 72) and oo cuts.
•That's the one GOlf
thing I have heard Is a·
major dllference. •
Purtzer l8k1 of the three-round
townaments, wblch tndudes the Toshiba

aubMaidl4·10.
·on the Senior Tour, you will have to
get going right away. You don't have that
extra day to make up for a mediocre
round like you do on the other tour. It will
be more like a sprint thdJl a marathon.•
PurW!r, who made only three cuts last
year ln' 16 starts on the PGA Tour, Is
aruooU$ lo return to the top. He won two
events ln 1991, inciuding the NEC World
Series of Goll, but hasn't won Ince.
·1·ve got some thing to prove to
myself.· he said. ·1 definitely want to get
baa into the winners circle and prove to
myself that I can win again. I think I will
have more personal challeng than
anything else. but I'm look.log forward lo
