Deep• Bherath DAILY PILOT NEWPORT-MESA -Com- munity members reacted with shock and disbelief at a federal appeals court decision Wednes- day that, for the first time ever, declared the Pledge of Alle- giance unconstitutional because of the words "under God· added by Congress in 1954. The ruling, if upheld, means schoolchildren can no longer recite the pledge, at least in the nine Western state~ covered by the court. In a 2-1 decision. the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeal said the phrase amounts to a government endorsement of religion in violation of the Con- stitution's Establishment Clause, which requires a separation of church and state. ¥A profession that we are a nation 'under God' is identical, for Establishment Clause pur- poses, to a profession that we are a nation 'under Jesus,' a nation 'under Vishnu,' a nation 'under Zeus,· or a nation 'under no god,· because none of these profes- sions can be neutral with respect to religion,• Judge Alfred T. Goodwin wrote for the three-judge panel. The Establishment Clause refers to the beginning of the 1st Amendment of the Constitution, which states. ·congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or pro- hibiting the free exercise there- of." Richard Menees, associate rector at St. James Episcopal Church on Via Lido in Cannery Village, said he is disappointed at the court's decision. ·If there is a God, trying to weed him out of existence 10 such public matters is at best a poor joke,· he said.

LoUt. Harper • DAILY PILOT COSTA MESA -A Costa Mesa attorney will be paying close atten. tion to a court ruling today that could detennine whether her name will be adde.d to the November bal- lot for a Orange County. Superior Court judgeship election. The hearing -scheduled at 1 :30 p.m. today m the Central Division of Orange County Superior Court in • Santa Ana -is the latest hurdJe in attorney Gay Sandoval's path to unseat Superior Court Judge Ronald C. Kline. Kline faces charges of child molestation and child pornography. and is now under house arrest as a : result of those accusations. • Sandoval waged her uphill bdttle • to defeat the besieged judge as soon as she learned or the charges, say- ing she wanted to send a message to Orange County children that vot- ing adults would not just sit back and let an accused child molester keep an elected position. As a result of her efforts to mount the write-in campaign. the prelimi- nary race was opened to 11 chal- lengers. The combination of challengers kept Kline from winning a majority of votes in April, forcing the Novem- ber runoff. It also prompted Kline to request that his name be removed from the November ballot. His wish was granted last week, leaving write-in candidate John Adams -who was the lead vote getter in the primary, just ahead of Kline -as the only candidate m the race for Superior Court Judge Office No. 21 . Sandoval was the third-place vote-getter. Now, what start- ed as a crusade for the children has turned into a quest for choice, as San- doval turns her b?t- tle Crom the cam- paign trail to the courtroom in an Gay effort to get her Sandoval name addep to the ballot. "The voters need a choice,• San- doval said. Sandoval, a former Daily Pilot· columnist, said she asked the regis- trar's office to put her name on the ballot along with Adams but was told she needed a court ruling. Tern Niccum, spokeswoman for the reg- JStrar's office confirmed that, Sdying a legal entity would have to deter- mine the matter. •As I understand it, we don't have any power to put someone Ion the ballot) unless a judge has man- dated it," Niccum said. Sandoval began the legdl pro- ceedings. basing her legal chal- lenge on an elecbon code section that she says calls for the next high- est vote-getter to fill d ballot vacan- cy for a nonpartisan oft1ce. Adams received 33.2% of the vote. foUowed closely by Kline at 32% and Sandoval earned 10.8%. With Kline's successful removal from the ballot, Sandoval secures lhe spot as the second-highest vote- getter. AddJTls said he has not seen Sandoval's formal request and would reserve comment unW he reads It. · If voting stdbstics don't make a strong case for her, the amount of effort she has put into the campaign - should be taken into consideration, Sandoval said. After all, Kline's name would never have appeared on the ballot to gJVe voters the chance to wnte m other alterna- tives. "I was the flrst one to get him on the bdllot, 1 was successful m gel- ling him off the ballot, but now the ballot has a hole m 1t, and that hole has to be filled,• Sandoval said.

Lolita Harper DAILY PILOT COSTA MESA -The Newport- Mesa Uruhcd School D1stnct's 2002- 03 budget. adopted Tuesday everung, can be summed up in ,one word: tentative. District oHicials were quick to pomt out that the $158-nullion pro- posed budget is subject to change when the results of a handful of unknown Vdnables are revealed. "There dTC a lot of unknowns out there,• said school board trustee Martha Fluor. "The big word is 'if.•• The biggest -and most influen- bal -vanable IS the troubled state budget. Paul Reed, the district's assistant superintendent of busmess services, said the pretimincUy bud- get was compiled based on the best information available -wluch is not much. "The dilemma 1s: When the school board acts, 1t can only dct on what is reasonably certdm and the California Legislature 1s far from reasonably certain di this Ltme," Reed said. The 2002-03 budget's spendmg is up about $17 million from ldst year and antiapates a moderdte l ",., increase in revenue from the dver- age daily attendance and 7"1 .. increase in property laxes. Expens- es include a previously agreed upon 3.5% compensation hike for cerll- fied employees and a 2.5'X, mcredse for classilied positions, Reed sdid. The district must also account for the ever-increasing cost of benefits, an item that has risen 22'V., over last year's budget. One-time expenses, such as equipment replacement and technology updates. are also includ- ed, Reed said. The tentative budget shows expenses slightly more thdfl rev- enue at $3.2 million, but Reed sdld the district wouJd be able to balance that with $10.1 million in unspent funds from last year. . Reed said the 2002-03 budgt>t u. a conservative "snapshot m tune.· Although tunes dre uncertain, the budget IS balanced and there are no rnt.s tn programs. "Tlus budget conllnues the level of service that people are accus- lomed to and tmproves 1l wherever possible with some prudence." Reed SdJd If a i.econd word were needed to de!>cnbe the budget, it would be "conscrvdt1ve. • Reed said the budget does not presume any income that the dis- tnct does not know will be there. It also presumes that every expense in the budget will be spent -which is almost never the case -and still forecctSts a reserve of $6.9 million, he Sdid. Flour said she u. comfortable the dlslnct IS not headed for cns1s. The trustee said the loorrung state prob- lems worry her because of the potential effect they may have on the state as a whole but 1s confident Newport-Mesa schools will weather the storm. The district operates under a "dual adoption cycle" and w11J rev1s1t its fmanc1al forecast in Sep- tember with a more realistic picture, Reed said. ·Lots of things will change by the b.rne the final budget 1s presented for adoption m SeptPmber, • Reed said. The school board also approved the d1stnct's te nlallve budget, total- ing d bit more thdn $144 million. As it stands, the budget is balanced with expenditures of less than $143 million. More l?Cations where the public : may view the report may be . added. : After the public review, the : matter will go to the Planning Commission, wluch will consid- er a request to include a nearly 124-foot steeple on the temple. All other elements of the pro- ject are wttlun et ty guidelines, though some, such as bwlding color and tighbng, have caused concern among neighbors. The report shows that the visual effect of the temple on the neighborhood is •1ess than sig· nificant. • Effects on traffic, as well as water ·and air quality, is also determined by the report to be ·1ess than sigruflcant, • though it's likely some residents will disagree.

Academy recruits came from all over the county, and even as far as Riverside and Colorado Springs, Colo., for the program, which offered a variety of firefighting training at various stations, said Orange County Fire Authority Battalion Chief Mike McCoy. Costa Mesa Pi.re Station No. 4, on Placentia Avenhe, hosted the ambitious class of Exploren on Wednesday, focusing on different rescue systems, such as he.avy res· cue, and search and rescue.

The decrease in the costs of providing some city services is expected to cover these additional items.

"It has been such a learning experience and a great introduction to the fire ser- vice.• By the end of the week, the group will have extin- guished a fire, practiced various rescue techniques, and rappelled from towers, as well as trained for flam- mable liquid fires, oil and propane fires and more. The academy, open to people ages 16 to 21 , not only provides experience to those who are sure about their career path, it helps determine who ts cut out for revenues that would usually be expected from the state for vehicle license fees. Though Gov. Gray Davis has said he won't cut funds to cities in the upcoming state budget process, Newport Beach offi. cials remain wary that the state Legislature or even the governor could decide not to send this money to cities. • JUNI ~ c.own New- port llffch.

CA. j OBERG, JR., Seth Michael • • • Doily Pilot CURVE CONTINUED FROM A 1 a ghetto of mansions, many of them huddled behind gates and security guards. And the mansions are mvading tract homes too. On the block I walk around each day in my obstinately mid- dle-class Santa Ana Heights surroundings, someone has built a mansion that sldnds out like Shaq O'Neal tn a • Boys' Club game, If that can happen in my backyard; then no neighborhood is safe. Drive around Newport ' Beach and have a look for yourself. Modest homes are coming down and bigger homes are going up. Then the bigger homes come down and mansions go up. Now even bigger mansions are begmning to follow. The best examples are m gated communities, but the VlTUS is spreading rapidly. A recent artide in the Los Angeles Times Magazine titled "Uving Ever Larger• took a look at how this dis- ease affects society on a broader scale. It quoted a French anthropologist who has been analyzing the American consumer for two decades as saying: "It's a cul- ture of excess, a permanently nouveau riche mentality. We want the biggest, the most extreme of everything.• Robert Shelton says there are other reasons too. He is chairman of a citizens' advi- sory committee named by the Newport Beach City Council to help identify critical issues for the council to consider in updating the general plan. Mansionization is high on that list. But the motivations Shelton's committee is hear- ing for our incipient mansion ghettos go well beyond mere ostentation. The chief complaint brought up against mansion- lzation ta that it changes the character of a neighborhood simply by its size. A three· story home with an elevator on Balboa Island is as out of keeping with its surround- ings as the mini-mansion I pass every day in my walk. Other complaints: Such over- sized homes block light and create a much denser com- munity. Beyond just showing off existing wealth, the mail) motivation for mansion.l.i:ing appears to be the production of new wealth. Longtime .homeowners -especially those on fixed incomes - profit by upgrading the site or creating income property by renting half of the new struc- ture. And contractors, who are understandably pushing this sort of thing, profit from the remodels or from buying a property, tearing down the house on it and filling up the lot with a mansion. Accord.mg to •uving Ever Larger,· while the size of the typical American family has decreased by 20% during the past three decades, typi- cal new homes are 55o/e larg- er than the average home built in 1970. Notes the anthropologist quoted earli- er: "When do you have enough 1n America? Never!" But local residents upset by mansionization are now saying, "Enough.• Which poses some problems for the people making the laws in Newport Beach. The main device for controlling man- sion.ization is adjusting the ratio between the floor area and the size of the lot. Cut- ting it back would eliminate a lot of the monsters now being crammed into small lots. It would also offend those who reqard property rights as sacrosanct. The best solution, of course, is a combination of sociat awareness. good taste and sensitivtty to surround- ings among the homeowners and contractors who design and bwJd these monstel'S. That pipe dream was badly ha.ken the other rug.ht as I contemplated a million-dol- lar home bemg wasted in order to build one several tunes as experis1ve on the same lot. The e10Sting home bad 1ust been bulldozed, along with much of its con- tents. Stoves, refrigerators, washers, expensive land- scapmg and mterior appoint- ments were cavaherly destroyed while gardeners, servants and the wrecking crew -any one of whom would have treasured theye possessions -watched. That kind of flaunting of Thursday, June 27, 2002 AJ;. ' wealth and mseD.SltiVlty to those ~ blessed should make 1t easier to bgbten reg· ulabons on the ratio of noor area to lot si.ze in Newport Beach The reluctance among pollbcal conserva- tives to inject government mto such pnvate decisions i9 selective. nus would seem to be a time and place to use tt. Once reasonable l.units have been put on mansion- izallon, then maybe w e can turn to other urgent matters. Like affordable housing. •JOSEPH N. RU is a resident of Santa Ana Heights.

NOT SO EZ LUBE WHAT HAPPENED: A controversial request to build an EZ lube in Coro- na del Mar did not get its day in chambers as expect- ed. Though council mem- bers were prepared to con- sider the request Tuesday night. the matter was post- poned at the applicant's request. EZ Lube has asked the council to reconsider the Planning Commission's decision to deny the com- pany a permit to build a 2,641 ·square-foot auto ser- vice facility at 3600 E. Coast Highway. The Planning Commission had shot down the request because, they believed, the business would not fit in well with the neighborhood. . WHAT IT MEANS: The matter is scheduled to come before the council at its Aug. 27 meeting. TRAFFIC SIGNALS WHAT HAPPENED: A S303, 759 contract to improve some traffic sig- nals in the ci~ ~ sailed throug the council on Tuesday. Con- tractor F.J .

Fourth of July fire- • -works at the New- • p0rt Dunes next : ~eek. Newport Beach City : fylanager Homer Bludau • and company sought a cou- : ple of options to replace the : pyrotechnic display, but unfortunately came up empty. But city officials definite- ly tried. , They tried to resurrect ·the show at the Dunes, but , neithe r the Dunes nor the : fompany that put on the ·fireworks event wanted a part of it. Liability issues, which caused Dunes offi- cials to drop the show in the first place, led the fire- works company to pass as well. The city considered igniting the display from the wate r, either at one of • the piers or from a barge, :.but that proved unwise in .Mlat it would draw e xtra .-=~tors to an already busy :lalboa Peninsula. :: And, to further shut out ·~e possibility of sparking a display near the peninsula, the Police Department pointed out that its officers are already a bit too busy on the Fourth of July patrolling the West New- port area to monitor anoth- er bustling crowd. It is a shame, especially as patriotism flourishes in our nation, that an alterna- tive display could not be created to replace the Dunes fireworks, but resi- dents are not without their options. In fact, look no further than the city's neighbors. Costa Mesa hosts a magnificent fireworks dis- play at O range Coast Col- lege's Le Bard Stadium. Both Huntington and Laguna beaches also host fireworks shows, as d o sev- erdl other cities throughout the county . So sure, it won't be the same as having it al the Dunes, but there are other options lo cele bra te our nation's independence at a time when we all feel a need to do exactly that. t;ounty fair plans to .... ~~tay in Costa Mesa _ ..

We have been very pleased to be considered as a polentiaJ reop1ent of property on the base. The fact that the O range County Fair & Exposition Center has been identified as a possible partiopant on the EJ Toro Marine Base is both exciting and encouragmg. When the fair was men- tioned, however, many peo- ple jumped to the conclusion that relocation was unminent. That is just not the case. ll we are included in the final El Toro plan, we would be most pleased. Our first step would be to focus on those programs, such as -111e Ranch, -that we are prohibited from providing here due lo space restrictions and lack of equestrian trails. We would next look to see how we could provide addi- tional community programs at that location. It would be our desire to see how we could use any asset provided to the fair for the full benefit of our community. In our 100-year history in the CO\Ulty, the fair has served as a community resource, offer- ing se?Vices, entertainment and educatiooal programs. This mission will continue to remain strong for another century, and with that we hope to continue to build a strong and respectful relatiooshtp with our Costa Mesa neighbors as we look to grow and improve.

Orange Coast College will try to extend swap meet I t's interesting that Orange Coast College speaks of canceling some of its arts program if it can't have a swap meet two days a week (#No more drama at Orange Coast Col- lege,• Monday). Maybe the college officials realize that our mayor is a dedicated patron of the arts and they're just trying to win her approval. Subsidized programs and perfor- mances? Definitely not for the regu- lar ticket-buying public. I was surprised how much they wanted me to pay to see these per- ronners, who were either on their way up or on their way down in their careers. 1 mean how much is some- one willing to pay to heaI Rosemary Clooney, Florence Henderson or the latest tour of Forever Plaid? The college should probably admit that those high-cost regular ticket prices also help subsidize the cost to seniors and children, which, by the way, is perfectly OK with me. TIM CROMWELL Costa Mesa Newport Coast addition may have its faults I have very much enjoyed your recent addition of history notes of Newport Beach (Sundays). May I add to your storehouse of knowl- edge? Between 1974 and 1978, it was my privilege to serve on behall of the dty of Newport Beach on the Local Agency Formation Commission. In that role as a City Council me mber, I sat with the cities of Irvine and Lagu- na Beach in discussion of down coast annexation. Gabnel Pryor was an excellent mayor of Irvine at that time. She was an extre mely able and strong-mind- ed person who represented the d ty of Irvine in its ardent search for •a window to the sea.• As I recall, it was the city's intent to run Culver Drive through the hills to the Pacific. She, like me, had maternal duties. She le ft a meeting early in order to take a child to d cello lesson. It was at that meeting when we voted for #spheres of mnuence. • She would have been a fomtidable foe on this issue. Only because of her absence was I able to gdmer two votes to put down coast into the sphere of innu- e nce of Newport Beach. There are times when I think I erred. Incidentally, your reporter on the Newport Beach budget cites ·the nearly $5 million in property taxes expected from the recenUy annexed Newport Coast will offset big. losses in hotel and sales truces.· It is wise to look at both the income and expen- dtture sides of a oty budget. What will Newport Coast cost in addtbonal servtces -police, hre, trdsh, street cleaning, park maintenance, a branch llbrdry, commuruty center, etc. Will the $5 million cover the cost? LUOllE KUEHN Corona del Mar Warning would have helped .in reenactment I appreciate everything the Costa Mesa poUce do !or me and my com- munity, but on June 6, I was horrified to learn there had been a fatality at Estancia High Sch ool. Wlule attempting to drive to my destina- tion, lo a friend's home in that area of Costa Mesa, J was told by someone representing the Costa Mesa Police Department 1 could not drive on Pla- centia Avenue . When I asked why, she told me, "There has been a fatal- ity at the high school. - When 1 am ved at my desbnation (via another route), my friend's son phoned the school and discovered there was no fatality fortunately, but there was a reenactment or a drunk- driving accident designed to scare the students. ApparenUy, there was not much thought given as to what the reaction of the public would be when they were told by a pollce officer a threat- ening false reason for the barricaded street. It's akin to yelling Ure Ln a crowded theater or crying woll.

KATHI NELSON Costa Mesd Disability unnoticed in young umpire's ability I wanted to respond to your great artide about 'TTavis Jokumsen ("Sense for the game." June 17). I was the assistant coach for the Reds in the Mustang division. Travis was our umprre on numerous occa· sions and he was undoubtedly the best umpire we had. Superb. Just a joy to be with. The kids really enjoyed him. He dlways made good calls, 1 thought. · The thing that gets me about ltavis most is that he has what many people perceive to be a disability and yet he is above board the best umpire that we've had In quite some time and does it with a relative ease and just makes everybody comfort- able. So kudos to him. We need more umpires like him. .

Really good breakfasts, though, are a little more difficult to find. The Omelette Parlor rn Costa Mesa serves a really good breakfast consistently and every day. That's about as good as break- fast gets. The Omelette Parlor 1s on 17th Street, back by Chester Drawers, and anyone who spent their early 20s m this town knows exactly where that is. In fact, the Omelette Parlor shares an entry wtlh Chester Drawers, which ensures some very early morning busmess. I know it did for me' Let's put it this wdy, I used to order off the kids' menu because that's all I could dfford Now I order from it, because, well, you know. Tunes do change.

One picture 1s of the first race car from Costa Mesa dated 1906. The Omelette Parlor, however, was not open then. II has only been open since 1982.

'Pre-Crime iden- tifies future murders and is there- fore able to pre- vent the actual crime in its ·pre" stage. The com- pany has been in place in Wash- ington, D.C. for the last six years and, in that time they have not had one murder. JOAN ANDRE The company works by using the brctin power of flawed humans. ll seeks out children born with a ~enetic flaw that allows them to have an extraordinary degree of precoynilion. Pre-Crime adopts them for training and development 111 the company. The "precogs" are t!)Olctted and trnined to serve only Pre-Crime. They "see" a future rnurder, let their handlers know. a,nd a tf'am is dispatched lo arrest the murderer before a crime can be rnmmi lied. • The director of this system 1s Ldrnar Burgess (Max van Sydow), uncJ the lectde r is Paul Anderton /Tom Crui!>e). The federal govern- 111ent has just expressed an interest 111 nalionctlizing the system. Coinci- dentally, Anderton has 1ust been <1ccused of pre-committing a mur- der, so he must escape and brave ctll the high-tech police to prove he was framed. tbe viewer t:Us jaded concept. In both movies prior to •Minority Report," the future was painted as a dismal place with overpopulated cities, crowded living space and no green pastures or country living. This view ls a bit betfer. I fell the movie was equal to the star power -the whole movie, not just the story line. It is also worth- while to note that there is an intri- cate whodunit running in the back- ground that has tentacles to draw from all aspects of the movie and is very, very good about how it dis- tributes its clues. This movie is definitely futuris- tic, high-tech stuff. I think l might rent it when it comes out on DVD. "Minority Report ~ is rated PG-13 for violence, brief language, some sexuality and drug content. •JOAN ANDRE, "over 65." is a Newport Beach resident who does a lot of volunteer work. 'Scooby Doo' suffers from credibility issues When you think of "Scooby Doo," you think of the cute, outspo- ken Great Dane ttiat helps his friends solve mysteries in the oddest sort of ways. You have to think, •How could such a group be so suc- cessful?" But then you realize that all this stuff is make-believe, friends that form Mystery Inc., including the handsome Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), the damsel- like Daphne (Sarah Michelle Cel- lar), the brainy Velma (Ll.I)da Car- denllini), the clueless Shaggy (Matthew Lillard), and of course, Scooby. Togetherl while being in a -dispute with one another, they try to solve the evil plot that has com- menced on Spooky Island, an amusement park geared toward college students. In time, as the students leave Spooky Island, they seem to have completely changed in personality. This is where the former Mystery Inc. tries to help. In other words, they try to push everyone out of the picture and each works out the mystery by themselves. It doesn't end like this, for they end up for- giving each other and wor!fing together to figure out who the mas- termind is. This story line doesn't sound very convincing to me, for the way they go about it is obviously planned. U the action was gone about in another way, the movie would have more purpose. Even so, the movie did have its entertaining moments. The comedy of Shaggy and Scooby was one of the highlights of the movie. And even with the rest of the characters, there was disguised humor. It seemed that each member had their own uniqueness, which was constant throughout the movie. Velma had her brains, Daphne had bet damsel-ness, Fred had his lead- ership, and Shaggy and Scooby had their comedy. It made the movie seem realistic. Steven Spielberg has spared nothing in the high-tech arena. There is a whole Sharper Image 'l'.1ltctlog going on in the nooks and -crannies: Little spider guys scan- mng eyes; Pre-Crime police being transported by jet propulsion; trans- portation pods running up, down and around buildings. "Minority Re port," starring Tom Cruise, is in theaters now. and the writers make it so that everything turns out happy in the end. "Scooby Doo" is a movie that is funny in its own sense, but it doesn't really have a point to it. It's more of a cartoon made in reality. It has its laughs, and all together, that's the one thing you get out of it. There is a lot going on and 1 wonder if there just is not too much going on. Most of the movie lS devoted to Anderton's escape and showing of( the new toys. Sooner or later you are brought back to "Total Recall" and "Blade Runner" and remember why this au looks famil- iar. ties and philosophies, each of which need a fair share.of discus- sion time. Does knowing the future mean you can change it? Are you guilty of murder if no murder has occurred? The other lilrns adopted from story lines by Philip K. Dick offer Don't get me wrong, Scooby and his pal, Shaggy, are two of a kind. But how does a group that splits up and then meets again two years lat- er. still mad at each other, solve a mystery involving some evil mas- termind? I think it's very unlikely. "Scooby Doo" is rated PG for some rude humor, language and some scary action. • SARA SALAM will attend Corona de! Mar High School as a freshman in the fall.

THEATER ly Tom Titu~ T here are people you encounter who effec- tively change the course of your life merely by their presence in it. For me, one of those people was Pati Tambelllni. Pati did more than create the Costa Mesa Civic Play- house and operate it for almost a quarter of a century. She also cast me in my first community theater role back m 1965. The civic playhouse and I started out together, and we've both been at it ever since. This remarkable lady, who died Saturday, had a pletho- ra o( theater experience behind her when she aniwered the summons of the city of Costa Mesa and its cultural arts coordinator, Bette Berg, to become the founding director of the play- house in what was then a virtual firetrap on the Orange CountY. Fairgrounds. The first playhouse build- ing contained a stage, an auditorium and sufficient dressing area, although backstage space was a bit scant. It was fertile enough ground for Pan's creabve genius to lake root. She'd use the mam stage. the audi- torium floor and, on occd- sion, the area behind the audience for mulb-set shows such as "The Women • FII'Sl she started a chtl- dren's theater, and she and musical director Aruta Gross- man created several original shows for young people. Then came a teen group, with now-retired Estancia High School drama teacher Barbara Van Holt staging a production of "The Young and Fair" to launch this phase of the operation. Finally, .in June 1965, she brought forth the first adult production, the light comedy "Send Me No Flowers." I made my debut as the ceme- tery lot salesman, the part Paul Lynde played in the movie version. Thal minor role lighted a flame that has yet to be extinguished. Pati presided at the fair- grounds auditorium for near- ly two decades, finally mov- ing with the theater to its present location at 611 Hamilton St., Costa Mesa, in 1984. I returned the follow- ing year to play the "Father of the Bride" in the play- house's 20th anniversary show -an experience that helped prepare me for the real thing a few months ago when I escorted my daughter Mindy down the aisle. Nol only was she a cre- ative and prolific director (staging most seasons single- handedly for years), Pati also was an acc-0mplished actress. as she proved as Big Mama in ·cat on a Hot Tm Roof,· Madam Arca ti in •Blithe ·Spirit· and many other roles. But her prunary thrust was her plays' (and her theater's) direction. She also taught many a young thespian how to build and paint a set.

Now the curtain is closed on an extraordinary commu- nity theater career. Pati Tam- bellini made it happen for 23 years a t the Costa Mesa Civic Playhouse, and while she'd surely scoff at such sentimentality, it is doubtful that we'll see her like again.

Each of the four private clubs in the Daily Pilot circulation area enjoy ownership of the event and rotate u host each summer. The format ii better-ball of partners. Part1dpants in the Jones Cup are selected by the respective clubs, with each team consl.sting of a pro (any staff member) and an amateur (a dues· paying club member). The Daily Pilot sports department, which created the Jones Cup through the Pletcher Jones Motorcars/Daily Richard Dunn GOLF Pilot Club Championahip Series, urges each club's top golf profeuion· al to participate, along with the men's club champion as a reward for their title or top-flight amateur. Bob Lovejoy, Director of Golf at Big Canyon, confirmed Wednesday that he will play with amateur Danny Lane in Jones Cup ill and try to defend Big Canyon's title. Big Canyon defeated Santa Ana Country Club in a three·hole playoff last year with Lovejoy and 2000 Big Canyon men's club champion Ron Maggard.
