"I Like it here better because there are
more hoops.• the 8-year-old said.
A basketball gym, gymnastics rpom,
multipwpose room, aquatic center,
offices, locker rooms and designated
space leased to a separate child-care
facility combine for the 18,000-square·
foot facility on Anaheim Street at Lion's
Park.
The modem $4.2-million center
recently took the place of an obsolete
building that was constructed by com·
munity volunteers about 60 years ago.
The old community center, once held
together with mortar and bncks, was
demolished to make room for a state-of-
the-art center.
Despite the abundance of hoops m
the new gym, Jose was ordered to nde
the pine by his older brother, wtule the
elder Ramos took part in a compebtiVe
game that was too advanced for his sib-
ling.
His body language suggested Jose
was bored but his eyes told a different
story. His almond-shaped brown eyes
danced as be followed the movements of
the players up and down the court. Jose
flinched slightly when a stray ball would
fly his way, or an exceptionally loud cry
arose from the court.

they are finished, I'm going to play.•

Before the reaeation center, LeVl was
limited to playing basketball at school

Autopsy results released by the
Or~ge County coroner on Mon-
day revealed that the in-line
skater who died a week ago after
suffering a head PUBLIC injury on Back Bay SAFETY Drive was not struck
by paint balls.
Officials said they are no
longer s\ire what caused 54-year-
old Gary Holdren to Jose his bal-
ance when he was skating down
Back Bay Drive on March 24.
Police said they are still looking
for the three young men or boys
who were seen wielding paint-
ball guns in the area before the
incident, according to witnesses.
The autopsy reports also stated
that the eye injury Holdren suf.:
fered was caused •mtemally" -
not by an external object. .
Another witness also told police
the paint-ball strike marks found
on Back Bay Drive near the site
#where Holdren reportedly fell
were there before the incident
took place.
Police are still investigating the
case and are looking for any wit-
nesses who may have actually

The lawsuit that brought an

last week. COSll
MESI A squabble over
who should be held
liable for an Irvine's woman's
aruqe injury in 2000 is at the cen-
ter of the debate.
Arlene Wolff, 53, sued Orange
Coast Community College for her
injury after she tripped ~er an
allegedly "faulty" curb. The 57th
annual Fish Pry, hosted by the
local Lions Club, was held on
campus lb.at year because the usu-
al Lions Park location was closed
for construction.
Wolff filed a verified claim that
she visited both a computer exhib·
it and the Pi.sh Pry before tripping
over the curb. Coast Community
College offid.ols feel the Llons
Club should pay for the $80,000
suit because the contract allowing
the club to use the property clear-
ly stipulates responsibility of
injuries.
Lions Club officials, on the oth-
er hand, said there was nothing
the club could have done tQ pre-
vent a "fa~ty· curb and therefore
will wait for a court to decide lia-
bility.

A llt_tle piece of long ago
still remains near the
intersection of Via
Udo a.nd Via Oporto.
If you take Newport
Boulevard south, make a left
on Via Udo, another left on
k• Via Oporto · loo 'il' and then fol-, BA( low the cob-. biestone'road
until it dead
ends near the
Elks Club, you'll see a street
sign that reads •Central
Avenue.•
"Who knows why this one
small (daml piece of Central
Avenue is still around?" said
longtime Newport Beach res-
ident George Coffin. "But it's
sort of a treasure hunt. Here
is the one lonely sign of Cen-
tral Avenue left.·
What we know as Balboa ·
Boulevard today used to be
Central Avenue.
Judge Robert Gardner, a
longtime Newport Beach res-
ident who lived on Balboa
Peninsula in the 1920s
through 40s, s.:lid he doesn't
remember the signs ever
changing while he lfved
there.
The Daily Pilot columnist
also laughed heartily at the
idea that one random sign
still shows off that old name.
The 74-year-old Coffin,
who grew up in the 1200
block of East Central
Avenue, also didn't recall
when the change was made
either.
~But every town had a
Central Avenue or Main
Street,• Coffin said.
The change isn't a com-
plete mystery. Former public
works director Don Webb,
GMG F~ I OAJt.Y PlOT
Jual a small piece of
Central Avenue remains.
whots regarded as somewhat
of a history buff, knows the
story behind the little stub of
Central Avenue.
The street in general ran
• from the tip of Balboa Penin-
sula to where Pacific Coast
Highway meets Newport
Boulevard today.
Webb said a bridge used
to arch over where the two-
block strip of Central Avenue
still exists, connecting it to
Coast Highway.
He estimated that Central
changed to Balboa Boule-
vard in the mid-19305, when
the Arches interchange was
built. The low bridge over
the two blocks was removed
when the interch,ange moved
in and the sign naming the
street came into view.
But no one ever said the
little piece of Central should
be renamed.
"I think it's great,• said
Gardner, still finding the sit·
uation funny. "But I have no
idea.•

In the 1960s, Bernstein

"Obviously, I want to work
on any serious piece of

future. "I'm not anxious to

But don't expect to catch
him in the movie theater.
"I don't like the experi-

"There are things about it

went and a year later, the
final pieces of the project
were still up in the air.
Parts of the center were

December and th~8'1d

over a few months. All the
pieces finally fell into place
this spring to the relief of . many parents.
"It was a long. running

Bernstein, however, does
like the music he's composed.
Specifically, he says he enjoys
"Mockingbird," "Magnifi:

appredates the works of his
contemporaries, including
Bernard Hermann, John
Williams, Jerry Goldsmith

Throughout his career, be

There's still somewhat of a

development, though, is
that today's prospective nip-
pers and tuckers can choose
from a number of relatively
easy and affordable options
in out-patient clinics, as
compared to lying on an
operating table in never-
never land while people in
surgical masks rearrange
various parts of you.
First, they can inject you
with stuff like Botox and
collagen. Botox unwrink.les-
the wrinkles around your
eyes and your forehead -
crows feet, laugh lines.
frown lines, worry lines,
whatever. Collagen makes
things smooth and puffy.
Want some huge, pouty lips
like Julia Roberts or Claudia
Schiffer? Easy. Go buy
some. With enough colla-
gen, your lower lip can look
like a small banana. But
keep in mind, you ha'-'.e to
go back in and top off your
lips every six months. You
can also get your face sand-
ed if you prefer, with· things
like chemical peels and
micro-dermabrasion -from
• derm • meaning skin and
"abrasion" meaning "that
hurts.• But these days,
Botox 1S the trendiest of the
trends.
Making wrinkles go poof
with Botox has been around
since 1995, and once a pro·
cedure is approved, it does-
n't take long for marketing
to take over. If you crank up
your little computer and
search "Botox• on the Inter·
net, three zillion Botox bou-
tiques pop up around the
country. According to one
clinic in Chicago, "If people
ask you why you look
angry, sad, or tired all the
time, you are ready for
Botox. • Ob, OK. See? I had
no idea. You may think it's
money problems or your
marriage falling apart or a
chronic illness that's making
you angry or sad or
exhausted all the time -
but that's only because you
didn't realize you're ready
for Botox. How could you
not kilow that?
A small amount of Botox
ls injected into the muscle
around the offending wrin-
kle. Supposedly, it doesn't
hurt much because the nee-dle is really tiny. According
to the Chicago clinic, "Most
patients compare the sensa-
tion to a bug blte." Great.
But I'd like a little more
1pedfldty on what kind of
bug we're talklng about
before someone starts stick-
ing needles ln my forebead,
thank you. A Oea, maybe. A
wa.1p, pus. Just like the
Julia lips, you b4ve to go
back fore touch-up about
ev ry three to tlx months.

Maybe that's why people

Does all this stuff work?

it depends. For my taste, it
has to be a pretty subtle
change. But the only thing
that really matters is what
the person who's getting the

they look in the mirror, Lf

Ldngston. But for at least the last 20 years,
drch1tects and builders have made progress in
mdking bwlchngs more energy efficient, more
hvahle for tenants and, consequently, more
conductive to the sprouting of communities.
~And that's exactly what the show is about,•
Lrngston sad "It's not just only about putting
solar collectors on the roof. There are all these
other dimensions to greenness.•
TRAVEL TALES
Principals that are stressed m the "Ten
Shades" mclude how builctings need to be
built from recycled or recyclable materials.
Wood is preferred over glass or steel, for
example, because 1t requires less energy to
create with from a natural source. Vure said
Builctings need to be as efficient as possible
in using external energy.
They should be nonpolluting
"It offers the challenge to Amencan arctu-
tects .to consider these environmental issues,•
Vure said. "These concerns really cire about
thinking about the future.•
Models of the Gotz Headquarters in
Wurzburg, Germany show its glass box-in-a-
box style that lets air flow through its outer
cavity and abium, bringing in • maximum
amount of natural light and saving energy. The
glass design makes it appear to be floating.
The Mont-Cenis Training Center, a govern-
ment training institubon in Heme-Sod.tngen,
Germany, has a wooden inside structure sur-
rounded by a glass shell.
The Minnaert Buildmg in Utrecht. The
Netherlands features rooflights that let ramwa-
ter run into a tank m the middle of the struc-
ture. That water 1s then circulated around the

Costa Mesa needS
to save a real
piece of its history
I t's a sad fact of life in Southern
California that there is not much
history or tradition to be found
among us. On the East Coast,
where so much happened to
shape this country in its earliest days,
buildings from hundreds of yea.rs ago
are still in use.
Symbols of our country -from the
Liberty Bell to t!ie Declaration of Inde-
pendence -or.Me ~play. Jn .cities
-such as-'Boston, N~w York or Savan-
nah, Ga., a walk can become a histori-
cal tour.
Not so here. History is not every-
where you look. Our few pieces of his-
tory, such as the California missions or
the remnants of the ranchos that dot-
ted the land, remain as out-of-the-way
tourist attractions.
For the past year, Costa Mesa offi-
cials have been working to change
that, at least within our city limits. Led
by Mayor Linda Dixon, they have
worked to save what arguably
amounts to a piece of Southern Cali·
fornia history: the Huscroft House. It's
been a divisive, at times nasty, battle,
with opponents of the plan pointing
out that the 1915 Craftsman-style
house was built in Santa Ana and
moved to Costa Mesa in the 1950s.
Not exac;tly a piece of Costa Mesa his·
tory, they argue.
The whole debate has degenerated
into familiar city politics, and not much
has gotten done as a result. .That
wouldn't be terribly noteworthy if,
during the same months, a central
piece of Costa Mesa's history hadn't
died away.
The Fish Fry, which.for more than
50 years was held at Uons Park
before moving to Orange Coast Col-
lege, did not take place last year.
Because of a lawsuit filed against the
college by a woman injured during
the event and the Uons Club's inabili-
ty to find anotheurenue, a beloved
annual tradition died.
This year, there are plans for a
much smaller event. While that is hap-
py news, it won't be the same commu-
nity gathering ..
It should be. The Fish Fry needs to
be. And the city should be working
with much more enthusiasm (and dare
we imagine unanimity?) to save the
Fish Fry than it has to salvage the
Huscroft House.
Our city officials sqould be helping
the Lions Club find a large enough
place to hold a fish fry instead of a fish
picnic. They should be working to pro-
vide insurance -which so sadly has
played a role in the Fish Fry's demise
-so the event can go on without wor-
ries about another lawsuit. They
should be encouraging members of
the community to become involved so
the Fish Fry will grow and thrive as it
once did.
Lacking much in the way of history
here, it~ up to us to make our own.
And the Fish Pry was it, without a
doubt and without an argU.me'nt.
Air needs to be clear
ov~r Santa Ana Heights
I t would certainly be a shame if all
the hard work that has gone into
annexing Santa Ana Heights and
Bay Knolls into Newport Beach
was for naught.
But in one heated evening of
debate, the tables sure seemed to turn
that way.
Here's a review:
Santa' Ana Heights and Bay Knolls
are slivers of county land along the
northwest end of the Back Bay. Por
decades, these neighborhoods have
lobbied Newport Beach city officials to
take them under the city's wing.
The benefits for the residents are
simple. More personal fire and police
protection, not to mention the whole
raft of dty services like trash pickup
and general maintenance that the resi-
dents don't receive from the county.
For the dty, taking Santa Ana
Heights, whose borders k111 the edges
of John Wayne Airport, means being
in a better position to Wne the avia-
tion beut and 1t1tle the ever-present
threat ol expanaion, an expansion that
could come both phys1cally and
through lnaeued tllghts and later
curfews.
Alternately, no one kne1w1 the tor-
ture ot airplane noila better than the
residents of Santa Ana Helghta. By
joining Newport Beach, they saw a
al ally in that fight.
r some reason, however, the mar-
g is never consummated. And this
week, more squabbling over details
has left the whole issue in a precarious
state.
Suddenly, the residents don't think
they are getting such a great deal from
the city. Ukewise, city officials are
wondering aloud U the money gained,
$110,000 a year unW 2035, or $3.6 mil·
lion over 33 years, 11 enough to cover
the costs ol the services the city pro-
vides.
Further, the city's decision to broker
an agreement that extended the bis·
torte flight cap settlement of 1985, in
lieu of a modest increue in John
Wayne passengers, has left some in
Santa Ana Helghts a bit steamed.
Fortunately, tllil week's sparks that
left dty leaders and Santa Ana
Heights residents ready to call the •
whole thing off will have time to cool
down .
Our hope ii thet cooler head.I will
revive the telkl and ensure thet years
of stud.lea and negotiatiom haven't
been wasted and that Santa Ana
Heights and Bay Knolls will be a part
of Newport Beach 1n the noMoo·dia·
tant future.

Boat users need licenses,· too
F or some of us who are
fortunate to live on the
harbor and even more
fortunate to be able to use
1his wonderful resource, at
times there are concerns that
need to be expressed. My
concern is the current state of
boa.Ung in Newport Harbor.
Yes, I am talking about those
irresponsible boaters in those,
at times, difficult to navigate
electric boats •• especially
when those boaters' only
qualifications is the money
that either rents or buys them.
But then again, this is not llm·
ited to electric boats. It ls also
those people with enough
money, or too much money,
who buy a boat with no expe· rience·, no desire to know
boa.Ung other than the mere
ownership of owning a vessel.
Yes, there wu a time it
was safe for the neophyte to
navigate these waters with
little or no knowledge of sea-
manship. Those days.are
gone, in large part, b9ccn11e
of the 1heer number of peo-
ple. Lota of people. Lots of
boats. An,d a lot of the towilt
trade that encourages the
renting of vesaell t~people
with enough money to do so.
Away with any prudence u
Paul James Baldwin
COMMUNITY
COMMENTARY
long as we can make a buck.
When automobiles first
made their way down what
was then considered a road,
no license was required, just
the ability to be able to pur-
. chase the vehicle and motor
on. AB time passed, and more
people obtained this form of
transportation, things
changed. There were ind·
dents, accidents and carnage
1n the fonn of injuries and
death. Rules and regulations,
including the requirement of
basic knowledge of operation
of a vehicle, were instituted.
For those who may not
know of what I speak, it is
called a driver's license.
These days, if one rents a car
1n another dty, I believe a dri·
ver'1 license is required.
Yet today there 11 no
requirement to operate anoth-
er potentially deadly vessel
other than opening one's
pocketbook. A visitor from
Nebraska (re.lox. it's only an .
ex«Jnj)le), never even having
1een navigable waters before,
is allowed, even encouraged,
to go out upon our local
waters.
Do you want your children
out in the harbor knowing
their fate lies in the hands or
helm of an inexperienced
person in a rental boat, or any
boat? How safe do you really
feel? I am sure that most peo-
ple wouldn't feel comfortable
letting their children play on
sidewalks Uthe only qualifi·
cation of an auto driver was
the ability to purchase a vehi-
cle without regard to the
operation of the thing.
Por those who argue that
the speed limit 11 5 mph and
electric boats cannot do more
than this, get real. You don't
have to go fut to kill people.
Stupidity can kill. Ignorance
can kill. Rules and regula·
tions, including driver's
licenses, worked to control a.n
automobile industry th.at saw
carnage due to its popularity
and the \ll'U'8gUlated usage.
Maybe it'• ~·to think
aerioualy about the safety of
our harbor. Or we can wait
unW there is enough tragedy
to rethink the iuue.

from some of my fellow Cos-

decided that anything that
this city, or any organization
within this dty, does that
might benefit immigrants,

of day laborers around our
city. But day laborers congre-
gated around town before
the Job Center ever existed,
and there is no reason to
believe that day laborers will
go away if the Job Center
does. Instead, the Job Center
has proved itself an efficient
means to control the gather-
ing of day laborers and a .
valuable tool for employers
and employees alike to find
Opponents say that, Uthe
Job Center continues, only
Costa Mesa residents should
be allowed to use it. But that
would only send the nonresi-
dent day laborers and the ·
nonresident prospective
employers to other parts of
town to conduct their busi-
ness -all without the safety,
security and dlgnity the Job
Center affords.
The opponents are trying
to pander to the worst iii all of
us. Don't listen to them. Don't
let fear and distrust govern

Pier renovation should
have been done different
I am writing regarding construc-
tion that occurred on the Balboa
and Newport piers. I think that
redoing the piers was a good idea,
but there is one major flaw in the
process. Nobody could visit them.
The workers could have easily put
one side of the pier off limits while
keeping the other side open to the
public. ·
This could have made progress
slower, but people visibng us here

Newport mayor's words

"forced out• of 1t if you never llved
m it?
Unlike many of the out-of-area
writers who favor a tall steeple at
the new Mormon temple stte, 1 am
a longtime resident of Newport
Beach and therefore understand
the impacts of a tall steeple on· our
conununity. I am writing this letter
to express my concerns and strong
objection to the proposed Mormon
steeple. Specifically, it is too tall at
124 feet -the equivalent of a 12-
story building. Additionally, the
lighting of the steeple is proposed
unW 11 p.m. every night. This is
inappropriate in a residential area.

Personally, I've always fanoed
living in an upper Manhattan
townhouse but reahzed l could

I have fancied belonging to the

n't swing that either But can l say I

dishonest. Unfortunately, that's the
power of semantics, particularly m
poll tics
More importantly, how can
Ridgeway represent the desues of
conjured people who don't even
reside here, but oppose those who
llve here and have elected and
trusted him to represent their views
as they decisively expressed them
in the Greenlight lrutiatlve?
I reside on the north side of Spy-
glass Hill with panoramic views of
the San Gabriel Mountains, the city
of Irvine and up the coast. It is one
of several residential areas within
the city llmits of Newport Beach
that enjoys a spectacular vista -
this is one of the many reasons that
our city ii special. The proposed
Mormon steeple will destroy this
view by sharply cutting it in half,
thus causing destruction of proper-
ty values and in the proceas ruining
a part of the charm and be&.uty that
defines our city.
In neighborhood meetings, a
Mormon Church representative
indicated that the height of the
steeple is important 41 a religious
symbol. This argument LI ineffec·
tive when you consider, for exam-
ple, that the Mormon temple in
Mesa, Artz., has no 1teeple at all.
This ls true of several Mormon tem-
ples across the country. I have vilit·
ed the Mesa temple, and it ii a
beautiful religioua fadllty. Why not
a •Mesa-like" temple right here in
Newport Beachi
There are many rea1ons againtt
building a tall steeple too numer·
out to mention tn thiJ letter, but the
most important reaaon againlt the

Newport Harbor also is
in need of dredging
In reference to the April 6 article
"$3.8 million for dredging offered
to city,· why is there no mention of
the harbor? The article indicates
that the funds are spe9fically for
future dredging in the Upper Bay
and explains that sediment flowing
into the Upper Bay harms the
ecosystem and that proper mainte-
nance is •crucial.·
That is all tine. but what about
the harbor? Why does there seem
to be such little concern about
dredging for the harbor?
Is proper maintenance of the
harbor not crucial? A slgnilicant
amount of the sediment that flows
into the Upper Bay flows directly
through. to the harbor. This material
is deposited throughout the bay,
causing hazards to navigation and
nuisances to slip owners as the
depth of water underneath the slips
and boats silently vanishes.
Maintenance of these areas by
dredging ls not allowed without
gpedfic approvals since the
deposited sediments may provide a
new habitat to some animal or
plant fonn. In these circumstances.
1Up owners are forced to watch
their llips fill in with no apparent
1olution.
It th1t any different from a wpid-
blown seed or lnaect being deposit·
ed on your lawn and ta.king root?
Aze we approaching a point where
one will need to secure a mowing
permit in order to maintain a lawn
to ita preexisting condition? What's
the d.Uf erence?
I do not own a slip, but I do
enjoy the bay on a regular butl
and t think the situation it out of
control. It it evidently herd to rally
support for th1t cauae because few

Police needed to police
Newport Beach police
A few years ago, my wife and I
graduated from the Newport Beach
Police Department citizens acade-
my and were impressed with the
professionalism and standards of
our police. However, some changes
are now apparent in the depart·
ment's reputation.
lt has been disquleting to read in
the Pilot consecutive stories of the
large increase in all categories of
crimes here -and then to further
read about the huge award to a
prisoner whom our police Lncarcer·
ated with. a violent man who then
assaulted' thiJ prisoner, causing
very 1erlou1 permanent injuries
("Court orders Newport Beach to
pay inmate,• March 28). It's not a.s
serious but harken back to some 10
years ago when the department
was embroiled 1n harassment and
sex scandalt.
I'm aware that polloe jwild1c:.1Sons

Don't be too hasty on
Marinapark decision
My friend Drew Lawler's Com·
munity Commentary ("Counol out
of step with Mannapark, • March
10) can't go unanswered. Lawler
stated counol members should not
vote what they believe is best for
the oty, rather what the majority of
residents apparently want.
Hold on. haven't we had enough
of government by polls? Don't we
want leaders with integrity and
prtndple? My point: When a com-
plex issue is decided by thousands
of voters, it's not much more than a
glorified straw poll. Want a hotel or
less tralfic? That's a no-brainer:
Less traffic wins in a heartbeat.
Walle into a booth, punch "no" and
walk out. It's that easy. It's called
"ballot-box planning" and it's been
a calamity throughout California.
The tone of Lawler's letter sug·
gests Newport's Greenlight no·
growth/slow-growth movement has
gone over the top. Surely, he knows
council members spend more than
their Tuesday nights on these com-
plex matters Property nghts have
to be considered; so do long·tenn
revenue 1treams. cost-benefit
ratios, the latest planning polices,
neighborhood issues and. yes. traf·
fie impacts. To ensure proper land·
use decisions are made, the city has
toning laww, 1~c area plans,
environmental-impact reports, the
tralfic·pha1ing ordinance, a skllled
planning staff, a citizen-based
planning commisslon and a freely
elected city council. ln comparison,
many times all the voter has ls a
colorful mailer.
AJ l 1ee it, Newport Beach baa
been -and 1• now -in well.quali·
tied bands. Its pldnnlng procedures
have produced an e.x1remely well·
balanced dty and there'a no reuon •

Aie we to conclude that the rest
of the counol members have actu·

their own viewpoints from lus bully

Here are answers to
everyone's problems
With all this talk about upgrad·
ing and improving Costa Mesa, I
have a solution that will silence all
the cntics and make most every-
body happy. Have Newport Beach
annex the east side, Santa Ana
annex the west side. and Huntmg-
ton Beach annex Mesa Verde Let
the county have South Coast and
the Orange County Perfonning Arts
Center for the benefit of all county
residents. That way, those who live
LD those neighborhoods will feel
more at home by being 1n the com-
munity of their choice.
If anybody ts not happy with
that. they oan move to lrvfne, COila
Mesa·not-by-t.hfMea w1l1 cease to
ex:Llt. The best part LI that we w1l1
be rid of the inept and myopic dty
government that we now have.
As to the airport tuue, JWA
should impoee U.Mr'fees of $100 per
ticket. If tbO&e South CoWrty NIM·
8Y1 and BANANA.I want th COD·
ven.lence of 1 nearby airport. but

ARCADIA -Off the track, Julie
Allen and Megan Kaltenbach are cloee
friends. On the track, there's hardly a
difference.
Allen, a Corona del Mar High seoD.
and Kaltenbach. a ;umor at Smoky Hills
High in Colorado, added fuel to their
friendly rivalry in the 3,200-meter race
at the Arcadia Invitational Saturday.
Allen, who was Kaltenbach'•
roommate at the Foot Lock.er Nationals
in Florida in December, f.inisbed fowth
with a personal-best 10:35.97 1D the
3,200, which Kaltenbach won in
10:21.01.
The tour, part of the men's
worldwide senior tennis circuit, does
not list a 2002 schedule on its Web
site, while phone calls and e-mails
placed to tour officials have gone
unanswered the past few days.

Riverside's sliding Robby Hudson ls out at second base as Orange Coast's Jake Garcia makes the play.
·1 don't think of (the competition) as
my enemy,• said Allen, who finished
1 tth at the Foot Locker Nationals ahead
of Kaltenbach. "It's a whole bunch of
runners coming together and it's one of
the neatest Uungs. You get to know
these people. You race, and it's fun.
With (Kaltenbach). you just want to go
faster.•
"We stayed in the same room
together,• Kaltenbach said of the
Florida tnp. ·we both used to play -
soccer, so we share that in common.
It's so much fun seeing her. We have
some inside jokes that we share. She's
SQ awesome. To race against her is a
great experience.•

Brehm, the tour's executive

The tour's creme de la creme 14.st
year, the Masters Championship
featuring the year's top eight pto.yers,
was scheduled for Central Park in
New York City Sept. 18-23.
Needless to say. the Masters was
canceled, and, apparently, the
terrorist attacks triggered the tour's
downward spiral.
Last year's Champions Tour at
Newport Beach Tennis Club

about $50,000 for the Kinship Center,
Brehm said.

Pat Cash in the title match last year

It was McEnroe's emotions
unraveling -so what else is new? -
that turned the Newport crowd
against him in the first set of the
championship match against Cash.
One man in the third row of the
east-side bleachers hollered, •Tu.row
