T he mood during the last Saturday of
the Orange Coast College swap meet
was simply one of resignation. ·we·re
not happy about it but what can you
do?• said Suzy Godfrey, of Anaheim,
who runs the St Store. ·we're hoping that they
reconsider, or fix the problem. but until then. we
just do what we have to do.•
Godfrey is just one of the hundreds of entre-
preneurs who set up shop in the perking lot or
OCC each weekend. She and her lellow vendors
combine to create a shopping venue that offers
rows and rows of inexpensive and eclectic goods.
On Saturday, vendors offered a wide variety of
merchandise, ranging from brand-name knockoffs
to plants, from used toys to cloth.es or furniture.
Each booth was stockpiled with wares as vendors
hoped to unload as much as they could on their
final full weekend of selling.
Next week, the swap meet will be cut nearly in
half -from about 400 vendors to 275 and from a
two-day operation to SWldays only. The cbanges

Avenue Fountain
Fonner public works director

DAILY PILOT
W e all know about
Alvin Pin.kley's drug-
store in Costa Mesa.
The soda fountain there was
the place to be for the city's
kids, adults and even politi-
cians.
Newport Beach had it's
own soda fountain. It was on
Balboa Penin-lookf~ sula, close to ll(ll ~r~~ Har-
School and
even closer to
the Balboa Bay Club.
The Avenue Fountain
attracted kids who got off the
bus at the adjacent bus stop
after school, celebrities includ-
ing Humphrey Bogart who
needed a quick something
while hanging out at the Bay
Club, employees from the
next door Balboa library and
workers at a nearby telephone
company.
Gay Wassail-Kelly's father,
Jack Wassail, used to hang
out there when he brought his
family to vacation in the city
in the mid-'40s. He would talk
about fishing with the other
men who were there.
"It was just kind of a hang-
out,• said Wassail-Kelly, a
longtime Newport Beach resi-
dent. "It was light and fun to
go to and everybody would
walk by.·
Janet Steele, a Cos&a Mesa
resident whose father John
Groch took over The Avenue
Fountai.D.ln the early 1940s,
coqipares i1 to a miru Circle K
of yesteryear.
Except one important dif-
ference: The humble little
store offered a counter with all
kind of ice cream sodas and
Cokes.
Steele, whose first job was
working behind the counter
during her high school days at
Newport Harbor, remembers
maJ<ing ice cream sodas with
scoops of ice cream, squirts of
chocolate soda and soda
water. Actually, one soda
would require one scoop and
one squirt.
She even made the Cokes.
Back then, Coca-Cola manu-
factured Coke syrup rather
than pre-mixed soda. Steele
would squirt some very con-
centrated Coke syrup into a
glass and then fill it up with
soda water.
The menu included milk-
shakes made with old-fash-
ioned milkshake machines
and sandwiches like ham and
cheese and tuna salad.
· "I was a soda jerk,• Steele
said, explaining that's what
fountain employees were
called at the time. ·1 made a
dollar an hour. I think he over-
paid me. He was my father.·
The small store also sold
minimal cosmetics including
lipstick and band cream, tooth-
paste, liquor, magazines, over-
the-counter medicines like
aspirin and pretty much every-
thing you'd find in a drugstore
except prescription drugs.
Groch was a pharmacist, •
but he had a separate job
working for a pharmaceutical
company and so the soda
fountain retained it's name of
The Avenue Fountain. Legally
you needed a pharmacy with
a pharmacist to be called a
drugstore.
Steele's mother, 102-year-
old Marjorie Groch, ran the
store much of the time and
also made sandwiches to sell
at the fountain.
'Groch sold the store in the
late '40s and then bought a
drugstore in Santa Ana, Steele
said.

DAILY PILOT
NEWPORT BEACH
Don Webb, a 33-year veter-
an of the city's Public Works
Department, will run for
City Council in November.
Webb declared bis can-
didacy on Friday for the
District 3 seat that will be
vacated by Norma Glover
at the end of this year due
to term limits.
•When I retired, I
expressed an interest in
running for council,• Webb
said. "This is something I
really want to do and it
seems like now is the time
to announce it.·
Webb retired in July as
the city's public works
director -· a posibon be
says fostered his passion
for moJdn,g Newport Beach
the best city it can be.
"I've lived in the com-
munity for 37 years and I
have a real strong feel for
wanting to stay involved,
in helping to make the city
even better,· he said.
Webb said that his expe-
rience is the greatest
strength he can bring to
office -understanding the
workings of Newport Beach
government and knowing
options and alternatives for
problem resolution. As an
example, he noted that his
expertise in traffic issues
could aid his work as a
councilman trying to fix cit-
rula tion problems.
It was due in part to this
expertise that Webb was
appointed to the city's
General Plan Advisory
Committee.
He also serves on the
Newport-Mesa Unified
Scho9l District Citizens
Oversight Committee,
which oversees $163 mil-
lion in local and state bond
money being used to
upgrade the 28 schools in
the district. And Webb is
part of the committee to
oversee the improvements
to Mariners Elementary
School.
As a councilman, Webb
said, his priorities ·would
include ensuring that the
general plan update now
underway lays out the best
possible vision for the next
25 years, continually
improving water quality
and making permanent the
current settlement agree-
ment that reins in John
Wayne Airport eJPADSion.
•It would seem to me
that that's the next step,•
he said. "Once the exten-
sion of the agreement is in
place, it seems the appro-
priate thing to do is to work
to make it permanent.•
Webb is the second per-
son to declare bis candida-
cy for the City Council
election in November. Ear-
lier this month, Corona del
Mar resident Laura
Bekeart Dietz announced
her plan to run for Denrus
O'Neil's District 6 seat.
O 'Neil, like Glover, will
step down due to teem hm-
its at the end of this year.

hopes to represent. includes

"'-'-Cnqrande
DAILY PILOT
EASTSIDE -At least four
people and five pets escaped a
blaze Saturday morning that
gutted a trtplex at the intersec-
tion of Wesbninster and Broad-
way.
•It was scary -very scary,•
said Marci Resch, 35, who was
brushing her teeth in her
upstairs apartment when she
noticed smoke billowing out-
side her window.
A moment later, she
smelled smoke and, phone in
one hand dialing 911, she ran
into the stairway that connects
her apartment to the other two
units to wdm her neighbors.
Resch, who shares the
apartment with her fiance, Bri-
an Roberts, first carried her cat
Oscar to safety. By the time she
returned for her other cat, Ivy,
the apartment was so filled
with smoke should couldn't
enter to save her. Firefighters,
though, were able to catch Ivy
and they administered oxygen
to the cat at the site.
Resch was treated for minor
injuries and another resident
was treated for psychological
distress. but there were no
serious injuries, said Gregg
Steward, battalion chief for the
Costa Mesa Fire Department
At least four people escaped,
along with Resch's two cats, a
dog, a rabbit and a bird.
·1 was screaming, "The
house is on fire,"• Resch said.
She learned that a resident
in the unit below her was
already awake, but her
screams woke up the tenants
in apartment A -the unit that
was destroyed by the fire.
"I'm still freaking out about
what happened, but I stop and
think how much worse it could
have been." she said. ·we
could have all been sleeping.•
Firefighters from Costa
Mesa and Newport Beach who
responded to to the call extin-
guished the fire within 45 min-
utes.
The cause of the fire is not
yet known, Steward said, and
is under investigation.
No estimates of the cost of
the damage have been made.

Yang owns Ted's Pets and

parakeets, lovebirds, cocka-

seed, cages and toys a per-
son would need to keep one.
The Santa Ana resident said
he will stay at the Sunday-
only swap meet until he can
find another location.
"It caught us off-guard,"
said son Henty Yang, who
has worked at the family
business since he was 7.
"Over the years the swap
meet got greedy and opened
more and more booths to
make more money but they
weren't thin.king abou& the

Now the vendors find
themselves the unfortunate
victims of actions that were
not their own, he said.
"Bigger is not always bet-

The two-day swap meet
brings in about $1.5 million
in revenue per year, college
officials said. That money
helps fund community pro-
grams like small business
counseling, perfonning arts
and youth summer camps.
Jim Mcllwain, OCC vice
president of administrative
services, said the only thing
the school is guilty of is active-
ly promoting the swap meet.
"We think we have the
biggest and best swap meet
around but obviously we can
see now that our success has
caused an issue with conges-
tion,· Mcllwain said.
College and city officials
said they will work together
in the coming month to fig-
ure out the best solution to
the closure. Various traffic
studies, flow charts and ven-
dor configurations will be
examined to create a swap
meet that vendors, Costa
Mesa residents and city and
college officials can live with.
In the meantime, hun-
dreds of vendors and shop-
pers will have to adjust to
the change.
Juana Mateo, of Santa
Ana, said she has been com-
ing to the swap meet on Sat-
urdays for the past three
years. She can find Items at
the swap meet that could cost
up to three times as much in
conventional retail stores.
Mateo will continue to
come on Sunday, though the
day is usually reserved for
church, she said.
The bargain rates allow
her to stretch her dollars and
make ends meet, she said.

explained the author, who
signed books at fashion
Island's Spa Gregories on
Friday. •The first hours of
sleep are when your body
starts to repair itself on the
micro-level.•
Long and Ingalls agree
that the art of relaxing ii in
preparing yourself for rest.
The psychologist said he
encourages bis patients to
create a •buffer zone•
between the time they are
active and inactive.
"The buffer zone is a time
of quiet,• he said. "The TV
should be off, you could
route your calls to the
answering machine. tum the
cell phone off and literally
make the house quiet and
more peaceful to prepare
yoursell for rest."
Long, whose book focuses
on the need for napping and
general resting during the
day, offers 101 ways to slip
into the state of being relaxed.
Her suggestions include
making tea (steeping loose
leaves is goOd, microwaving
a tea bag is bad), aroma ther·
apy, hand massages, meditat·
ing, turning on a stone/water
fountain, listening to classical
music, changing into sweats
or pajamas and surrounding

For Long, who was
inspired to write •Nap• by a
Garfield comic about the
feline'& membership in a Nap
of the Month Club, pretty
scenes can start small.
Even her water is lovely.
Her method is to drop thin
slices of cucumber and
oranges in a tall pitcher of
water because that way you
get a slightly sweet yet fresh
taste and also a pretty sight.
Long's book targets
women because research has
shown men sleep more and
better than women.
She said she encourages
napping because most
women feel they can't afford
to take that break and most
children and husbands inter-
rupt a woman from doing so.

The frontal lobes of the

emotions leak out.
"Your inhibitions are

Long said relaxing and

But what do you do once
you've mastered the art of

Get a good mattress, to
start.
Dick Roberts, manager of
a Costa Mesa showroom for
1-800-Mattress. said two-
thirds of bis customers visit
bis business because of
sleeping problems. ln most
cases, they're not getting the
right amount of sleep
because the mattress isn't
right for them.
"Everyone's different,•
Roberts said. •Tue key to a
good night's sleep is blood cir-

Mattress comfort affects that.·
There are three main
types of mattress tops: firm,
plush or pillow-top plush.
Every mattress has coils and
metal underneath -whicb
also can affect support-levels

but the top layers vary in
firmness.
"When I'm trying to sell a
mattress to a person to get

do they do," Roberts said.

Looking for rave
reviews from
that $1.4 million
B alboa Performing
Arts Theater propo·
nents have some
impressing to do.
Now that the city has agreed
to toss in another $1.4 million
into the theater renovation
project, there is going to be
much greater calls to ensure
Newport Beach residents a.re
getting their money's worth.
The city's investment will
pay for the purchase of the
Main Street building, notably
where the old Orange Julius
restaurant now sits.
By making the purchase,
the city will now band over
more control to theater orga·
nizers to plan for things like
dressing rooms and restrooms,
much needed fad.lities for .
what many are dreaming will
be the prize of the peninsula.
~When the arts come into
an area, the area thrives,"
said Coundlman Steve
Bromberg, one of six who
supported the plan. Only
Councilman John Heffernan
dissented.
While we couldn't agree
with Bromberg more, Heffer-
nan's reasons for dissent were
not without merit
The organizers of the the-
ater have for years promised
the community tha~ the open-
ing curtain was drawing nea.r,
and for years they have been
forced to drastically change
those predictions.
The main reason has been
the failure to raise the need-
ed cash to make the theater
happen.
So handing over more cash
is wonisome to Heffernan.
and frankly to-us too.
Thus our call to action. The
theater organizers need to put
Heffeman's and othen' fears to
rest and ensure tha.t the plans
for this performing arts venue
move along at a fast clip.
We have every belief that
will happen and look forward
to the day we can book front-
row seats to what will be one
of the best venues in town.

. T he 55th annual
Tommy Bahama
· Newport to Ensena-
da festivities will
end today south of the bor-
der. More than 500 volun-
teers spend countless hours
on making the race happen
every year. On Thursday, the
event's promoter, Ralph Rod-
heim, sat down with City Editor
James Meler to discuss the race's
past, present and future. Rod-
heim has be~volved in the
race since the Tu60s, mostly as a
participant.
What are your general thoughts
on th1J year's Tommy Bahama New-
port lo Ensenada Yacht beef
I'm really pleased with the
progress the event is making. It's
always been a wonderful activity.
The Newport Ocean Salling Assn.
board works all year long, as do we
.,.. we're already working on the
2003 race -and made some fabu-
lous strides this year to improve the
race, to improve the image and to
improve the benefit to the partici-
pants, the racers.
And what are the improved ben-
efits to the racenr
I think one of the elements we did
this year was the West Marine Sail-
ing Seminar and Expo, which was
held at the Newport Beach Marriott.
We were very pleased with West
Marine as a race sponsor -put a lot
of effort into it and actually had two
tracks, a beginning sailor track and
an advanced sailor track with seven
hours each. So, for a first-year event.
we bad 300-plus people attend, and I
would think in the future there
would be several thousand people
because it was so well done.
And we had a lunch, which the
Newport Beach Chamber of Com-
merce was involved in, that featured
Gino Morrelll, the world-class yacht
designer of Stars and Stripes and a
boat named PlayStation, which just
set the U.S. to England transatlantic
record. So people think tl;lat salling is
slow. They sailed across the Atlantic
Ocean for four days and some hours.
They averaged 25.8 knots, average.
So, for the Bnsenada race, that
was one new activity that came
about this year. The NOSA board
improves the Volvo pre-race semi-
naxs -a series of seminars from
Santa Barbara to San Diego that are
hosted by the sponsor Volvo to make
sure that people know the boating
safety, that people are aware of sup-
plies and safety requirements on the
boats. Safety is a huge concern
because when you're sending 500
boats and upward of 10,000 people
in tbe ocean, safety is very impor-
tant. So we stress that.
What brought about the Tommy
Bahama sponsonhlpf
Part of Rodheim Marketing
Group's role is to selectively add
sponsors, and the purpose for tbe
sponsorshlp~allowiI)gtheNOSA
board to keep the entry fees down
do people can participate. The spon-
sorship has also allowed the NOSA
board to choose some charities to
actually support. They've chosen El
Viento, which ts a wonderful charity
that Jack Shaw founded. He actually
lives ln Bay Shore$. lbat's a whole
story on its own.
In our process for finding a good
match -actually David Jahr in our
office thought of Tommy Bahama
and contacted them. I think they are
absolutely the perfect sponsor for
the race. I've never had the opportu-
nity to work with such a quality
company that is true to their image:
Life is one long weekend.
Their goal in the race is that Tom-
my Bahama-actually a fictitious
character -if he were real, would
be sailing and entering the Bnsena-
da race. Tommy Bahama is a guy
wbo really loves to have fun, and the
Ensenada race is really fun. There's
a lot of camaraderie and class. That's
wbat Tommy Bahama is. That's what
the race is. And there is the competi-
tion and excitement of the race, and
Tommy Bahama would be sailing in
this. So it's just a perfect match, and
we're really pleased to have them on
board. They have signed on for at
least three years as the [race's very
first) title sponsor.
And it's allowed the race to
improve itself one more level. We
now have an official logo and have
started the branding. It will allow us
to become more international.
Whal other change. were made
um yeart Obviously, you men-
Uoned the West Marine SailJng
Seminar and Expo.
And the title sponsorship. For the
first time, Tommy Bahama spon-
sored a fund-raising event for the
charity and, between Union Bank
and Tommy Bahama, raised more
than $14,000 for El Viento. So that's
something new this year.
They also have in United States
Sailing special people who are chief
judges to make sure the major events
around the country a.re run right.
There's only three of those in the
United· Stat.et, one of which will actu-
ally be on our boat to make sure this
is a world-class event. So that's new.
We never bad that kind of support.
WW that become a regular addJ-
Uon lo the race1
l really don't know. Those were
besioally the new elements this year.
Last year, we added the Volvo dou-
ble-handed race, so there was a cat-
egory, and they'll be salling again
th1a year with two people on a boat.
Were the changes neceauy1

sary, but each year the NOSA board

can you foresee any other
changes being made to next year's
race or races thereafterf
There's clearly one thing that I've
been lobbying for. And I think there
is support with NOSA, and I know it
will help Newport Beach in the
tourism industry. In the world of sail-
ing, there are certain races around
the U.S. -the Chicago to Macki-
naw race, the Key West race in
Florida, the Block Island race on the
East Coast -where yachtsmen from
all over the country go just to say
they've sailed in that race.
.Ensenada ~ one of those. In fact,
this year, we do have an individual
trailering his boat from Texas, we
have somebody else coming from
CAnada, we have several boats com-
ing up from Mexico. But we'd like to
continually establish the race as, if
you are involved in sailing in the
United States, you need to have done
the Tommy Bahama Ensenada race.
We have, in the past and hopeful-
ly it'll be reinstituted, the Ivy League
trophy. where each of the Ivy
League schools would have a repre-
sentative on a boat here and the first
Ivy League to win would get that
trophy.
We've discussed a U.S. Yacht
Club challenge, where each yacht
club within the nation would enter a
team and they would be in it. That's
where I see this race needing to go
and hopefully will go. A. It raises the
visibility of the race. B. It does help
tourism and people coming to town.
And it raises the visibility of New-
port Beach and all the wonderful
things we have to offer.
So the race itself is very well-run
and very well-organized, is a lot of
fun. It really is not broken. So, it's
one of those things that we can just.
each year, try to enhance. l' d like to
see more charter boats, so if you
wanted to go and didn't own a boat.
you could go.
Another thing I would hope
GR.EG FRY I DAii. Y PILOT
would answer that ts our friends in
Mexico continually do a better 1ob
when we go down there by offenng
tours to the Wl.lle country. Not too
many people know, but Ensenada
has a very good and interesb.Dg
wine country. That we have tours to
La Bufadora, whlch is the Blow
Hole, in Mexico. So that when you
get down there, there are tlungs to
do. Each year, you're always look.mg
for something new to do, so that's
what we're looking at.
What keeps this 55-year tradition
afloan
.fun. Fun. It really is fun. It's a
race that you could go to a foreign
country and yet it's not so challeng-
ing that you can only be a sophlsti-
cated yachts person to do it. You can
do it in a long weekend, which ts
perfect for Tommy Bahama's •Llfe lS
one Jong weekend.· It's fun on Uus
side. There a.re some really fun
events going up, and I keep using
this word •tun" and I tlunk that's
really the theme. When you get
down to Mexico, it's fun. It's not that
far. It's a beautiful drive. If you leave
here now [2:30 p.m.), we can be
there for dinner.
It's very well-run too. Each skip-
per gets wonderful pnzes, but that's
not why they enter the race. It's the
competition, it's the cama.radene. lt's
the fun.
Any final thoughts?
We really appreciate the Pilot and
what you're doing. I thmk by what
you're doing and the other publica-
tions you're raising the visibility that
boatlng and sailing is a good acbVl-
ty. Yes, it's a sport. but it's somethmg
that everybody can do. You don't
have to be ultra-wealthy to do it.
Anybody can. And Orange Coast
College bas a fabulous sailing pro-
gram. The Boy Scouts Sea Scouts
have a sailors program There's a
trophy for all women. so it's an
opportunity that women can sail.
So, by the work the PUot and oth-
er publications do in raising the

ON VACATION GOMMENTS
CONTINUED FROM 1
But as remarkable as his record
of military service was, it just does-
n't tell you enough ~bout Bill Bar-
ber.
He was a true Southern gentle-
man, born in West Uberty, Ky. in
1919, though he looked and sound-
ed much younger than bis years.
When you're training to be a mu-
itary of:fi~er, you spend a lot of time
studying something-called "com-
mand presence." To a large degree,
it's what makes a leader a leader,
but it's hard to define. It's a certairt
something in how someone looks
and S;Ounds and acts that makes
other people willing to follow them.
his name in the history books now
and forever, they won't find much
under "Bill Barber,• but they'll find.
plenty under "Col William E. Bar-
ber, USMC.•
Col. Barber enlisted in the
Marine Corps in 1940. He received
a commission as a second lieu-
tenant in 1943, was promoted to
first lieutenant in 1944, and was
soon in the thick of it of the Pacific
campaign as a platoon leader in the
Battle of Iwo Jima.
Doily Pilot
Col. Barber and his 220 riflemen
withstood five days and nights of
relentless assaults by Chinese reg:u-
1.ars even though they were drasti-canY outnumbered and miles from
the nearest friendly force. When the
situation seemed hopeless, Col. Bar-
ber ignored repeated orders to fall J
back and continued to rally his
men, which is when a bullet tore
through his thigh and shattered a
bone in bis leg.
Bill bad two of his men strap him
to a stretcher and pull him from one
position to another so he could
direct his men in the firefight, d~
ing which he continued to fire his
own weapon.
When the fight was done, only •
82 men in Pox Company walked ·
away, but many military historians
feel that thousands of Marines
Newport Beach residents Darwin Reinglass, president of New-
port Mesa Travel Connection, and his wife Connie led a large
group on the St Patrick's Day and l>_ub Crawl in Ireland.
I've had the privilege of chatting
it up with·presidents, generals, bil-
lionaires and a veritable boatload of
big shots -from Mickey Mantle to
Maggie Thatcher. Very impressive,
but Bill Barber had more command
presence than all of them com-
bined.
When his company commander
was wounded, Bill took over and
1E1d his men through one of the
fiercest battles of the war in the )
Pacific. While trying to rescue t:l(O
wounded men under heavy fire, Bill
was seriously wounded himself, for
which he received the Silver Star
and a Purple Heart. But it would be
six years later, in Korea, that Col.
William Barber's place in American
military history would be secured.
By November of 1950, Capt. Bill
Barber was commanding Company
F, 7th Marine Regiment 1st Marine
Division. The Battle of Chosin
Reservoir -"Frozen Chosin • -
was underway, just s01,1th of the
Yalu River that separates North
Korea from China.
around Frozen Chosin might have \
been lost without the.ir heroism and -'-
Col. Barber's leadership.
Not long after, President 1hlman 1
draped a Congressional Medal of
Honor around Bill Barber's neck. ..,
The one thing for which Bill Bar-
ber had no talent whatsoever was
talking about himself, which is typi-
cal of combat veterans. People who
have a lot of stories about what they
did in the war usually didn't do
much. And people who saw and did
the things that no one should ever
see or do usually have no stories to
tell. Bill Barber followed that model,
almost to a fault.
Frozen Chosin was one of the
most hostile environments that
American forces, or anyone else's,
had ever endured. The cold was
brutal and unrelenting, with air
temperatures from five to 20
degrees below zero. Just moving
and breathing required enormous
effort, let alone fighting.
Bill was proud and appreciative •
and, of course, embarrassed by the ·
attention.
Col. Barber"answered the call
again in the Vietnam War, and was
awarded the Legion of Merit for his
service there before retiring from
the Corps in 1970.
On Friday morning, many of us
gathered to say goodbye to Bill
Barber, most importantly his family,
and the other Medal of Honor
recipients in the area, like Walt
Ehlers of Buena Park, all of whose
stories of heroism and self-sacrifice
deserve to "told time and-time
again. There you have it. That , ,
gives you just a small idea of who
Col. William E. Barber was. God
speed, Bill. We are all irt your debt.
Forever.
Linda Scher, Nancy SWlwagon, Judy Gubser and Laurie Darnall,
all Newport Beach reside nts, attended a watercolor w orkshop in
Lucerne, Switzerland.
Ironically, in Bill's case, it didn't
matter. If Bill Barber had spent his
life running a small coffee shop in
the smallest town in Kentucky,
instead of beirtg one of the most
respect¢ military veterans in our
history, everyone who met him
would be just as bowled over. It
wasn't Bill's rank or his medals that
made people want to follow him. It
was Bill. When people run across
On Nov. 27, more than 120,000
Chinese troops came roaring across
the Korean border in one hwnan
wave after another. Col. Barber's
Fox Company was ordered to push
forward and secure a narrow pass
that would be the only escape route
for the thousands of Marines ·
around Chosirt Reservoir had they
been overrun.

, a baseball
i crown at
Newport
Character would be an
apt description of the 1948
Newport Harbor High
championship baseball team.
I t is interesting to reflect back on
the 1948 Newport Harbor High
championship baseball team
from 54 years ago and focus on
many of the outfit's noted
players.
AB known ln many quarters, this is
the only championship baseball team
in Tar history.
The late Wendell Pickens, who
repeated that performance many
times at Orange Coast College in
later yea.rs, coached the Harbor '48
champs.
Four of the top '48 players have
passed on over the years. including
the great left-handed pitcher Frank
Hamilton, first baseman George
Reeves. outfielder Paul Robertson
and reserve pitcher Jack Clark
Reeves IS among the most recent,
accord.mg to U\flelder Carleton Mears
of the sam~~ =class
Hamilton.
Don Cantrell
SIDELINES
Boyd Horrell and
Clark are Pilot
Sports Hall of
Pamers, though
Clark gained the
votes from his
play later at
Orange Coast.
Hamilton, who
was offered
$50,000 by the
New York
Yankees, turned
the offer down
since he had
pihed to enter college first.
Hamilton was ooc»y known at
•Lassie· by most cdI basebdll .. fans'Irt
the harbor area. 1'bfs tome.r always
referred to him as tbe 6-foot-4
pitcher, which prompted him to
remark, •I grew another inch, you
know. I was then 6-foot·5. • nus com er Joked back, "Well, I
recall when you got mad at us once
in a basketball game for calling you,
Lassie.·
Hamilton chose to explain after all
the years.
"Here's bow that came about,• he
said. "Dick Deaver was fouling up
once in a basketball game and I
called him, Lassie. But it didn't stick.
However, be chose to call me, Lassie,
and it caught on. I couldn't stand that
name,• he continued, then laughed.
Hamilton injured hls arm in
college and faded from baseball. He
never stopped painting. In time. hls
watercoloB of nostalgic Old West
scenes were drawing top prices at .
one Scottsdale, Anz. gallery. He
spent some time living in the famous
Old West town of J erome. not far
from Sedona, in Arizona.
Mears had a fond recall of Reeves,
who was a very intelligent student
and always maintained superb
health.
Mears, a versatile athlete, went
on to become a noted aviation
sdentisl He was also a skilled glider
pilot and once purchased a slick
$35,000 glider ln Gennany. His
favorite space trails Included the
High Sierra. He now lives ln Minden,
Nev.
BW Weatherwax, tbe all-league
catcher, spent ftve years performing
on one farm club for tbe SL Louis
CerdllW.s. He later spent numerous
years serving the fire and police
departments of Costa Mesa. He still
livea ln Costa Mesa.
One of the top outfielders was
Horrell, known as Boggie, who was
the fourth·leading bitter 1n th Sunset
IAagtie and also played outstanding
football at Harbor and at OCC.
