We've got too little room left on our freeways ,and in our communities to allow this New Year's propaganda -pristine air, 73-degree winter temperatures, California-girl cheerleaders -to continue to be distributed nationwide. I'm sure after each broadcast of the New Year's events in Pasadena, thousands of Midwesterners migrate west.

Please don't move here. Or what if the football players, cheerleaders and spectators all bundled up and pretended to be really cold and miserable? Please, anything's belier than another yeor of tropical weather on New Year's Day, the result of which is a new herd of migrants stampeding our communities. , Let's pray for rain on New Year's.

What• Vortex RI C Helicopters sells remote-controlled he- • licopters on a retail and mail-order basis. The com- pany also distributes impor:ed helicopters to hobby shops. The he-. licopters range in size from two and a half to nine feet long. Com- plete systems range in price from $1,000 to more than $3,000. Whefl • Vortex RIC, then known as Vortex Precision Prod- • ucts, was founded in 1988 by a Japanese investor. Taylor, an American Indian who $rew up in Northern California, ran the business for two years until taking over ownership in Sep- tember 1990. Where• Under the previous ownership, the company • started out in Hawaii and relocated to Anaheim in 1989. ·After taking over the company and changing the name, Taylor moved Vortex RI C Helicopters to 1374-A Logan Avenue in Costa Mesa. While Vortex R/C's retail trade is local, the com- pany's distribution network extends all the way to South America and Europe. Taylor says most of her distribution sales stem from a relatively expensive line of Japanese helicopters that she imports and sells to other retailers. Why• While studying Japanese and international .~ • at a college in Hawaii, Taylor was introduced to the previous owner and eventually went to work for him. She says that when the previous owner decided to get out of the hobby busi- ness, he turned Vortex over to her. She said she preferred to stay in California and devetor Vortex than to go back to Hawaii and work for her former boss s other businesses. How• Taylor expects the company to finish 1991 with rev- • enues of $200,000, doubling its 1989 sales. She said the company has grown primarily by word of mouth. About 70 percent of Vortex RI Cs revenues are derived from the retail and mail-order segments of its business. Lesson Learned• Taylor says she's !ear!'ed • that customer service IS a crucial part of running a business. '*This type of hobby is some- thing you have to be very personalized with, and they have to Ii.kc you," she says. "People who come into our shop I know on a flrst- name basis. and that's what keeps them coming back." Taylor says. too, that she had to prove herself to customers in a predomi· nantly male bobby. At first site, she says, customers think she's the "office girl." -By Toa.r Cu -Do ]'OU bow .romcoat wbo sbould be prollled la tb/1 ~ldy fell· tuft?

T he creativity involved in helping to mount a Cull-blown musical production is not appreciably different from that required to stage an intimate, two-character play, at least in terms of eventual audience enjoyment. Doth processes demand extraordinary expertise and meticulous attention to detail. And, when the result is lit up on the stage, both can elicit enormous appreciation from critics and audiences alike. Today, this newspaper pays tribute to an exponent of each category of the performing arts, a musical director par exce llence and a mistress of subtlety in the staging of two-character plays. They arc David Anthony and Joan McGillis, The Pilot's man and woman of the year in theater for 1991.

Anthony, who recently completed two decades of teaching a{ GWC, has drawn national recognition for his work as a musical director, composer and educntor. His bnton has se t the tempo for most of the college's musicals and his most recent success, "Broadway Our Way Ill," was, in th is column's opinion, the outstanding local college production of 1991. As the founder of the Golden West College Musical Theater Workshop, Anthony has conched students who are currently performing in all levels of professional musical thenter.

I caught X's country cousin The Kniuers at the Coach House in San Juan Capistrano Saturday night and was struck by the fact that the crowd seemed so old. Gone were the leather jackets, creatively carved hai rstyles and biker boots. Instead, most in the thinysomcthing crowd sported casual coats, hai rcuts befitting real 9-to-5 jobs and desi$ner tennies or, for the truly daring, cowboy boots. The Kniucrs have aged as well -they've added some gray hairs, recedi ng hairlines and a dress size or two since that X show -but more importantly, they've aged musically, too. Like fine moonshine. This was The Knitters first appearance live in five years. Without having to contend with the pretensions accompanied with promoting an album, kicking off a tour or X's political nnd societal finger-pointing, the country-fried quintet cut loose with n root-stomping 1 1/2-hour show that put ;ill those whipper-snappers currently on the concert circuit to shame. Vocalist Exene Cervenka never sounded better live than she did S:iturday night -nt least she on The Knitters' only album, sounded better than the six or 1985's "Poor Little Critter On the seven times I heard her live Road." After nnother ballad, the before. Motherhood, a solo career deep-voiced Alvin complnined, and on-stage sobriety obviously "John, you always get to sing the agrees with her musically. intimate, s~nsitive songs. Just once With her long, black skirt nnd I'd love to sing one." Alvin then collar-length. brown hair -only took lead vocals for the playful . one.shade! -making her appear "Wanda and Duane" from his more like a typical suburban mom current solo album "Blue Blvd." th an punk high priestess of past Doe then sum moned the other (she did don a black, long-sleeve Knitters, whose name is a t:ikeoff T-shirt with a skull across the on the '50s country group The chest and names on the arms for Weavers, and the five played most old time's sake), she confidently of the material from the "Critter" crooned alongside X-mate/ album, some other folksy numbers ex-husband John Doc. they haven't previously recorded M ustached singer-acoustic guitarist Doe, in blue jeans and a pink, cowboy-style shirt, was also in fine form, particularly on th e Waylon Jenningseque ballads th at were scattered nicely throughout a set that also featured lickety·split numbers showcasing the rapid-fire licks of electric guitanst Dave Alvi n (himself a solo performer, sometime Dlaster and ex-interim X guitarist). Whether playing a soft ballad or speedy ditty, Doc, Alvin, snare drummer D.J. Bonebrake nnd upright bass player Jonny Ray Bartel were so tight you would think they were just ending a worldwide tour together, instead of getting together, as Doc told The Pilot last week, "for a few shuckles." The show opened with Doc and Alvin alone for Merle Hnggayd's "Silver Wings," which Doc sang · and more songs from the various band•members' solo projects. ~s Excne summed things up after n seemingly possessed Alvin captivated the audience with nnother of his patented, but refreshingly non-tedious, guitar storms, "That's Knitters' jazz. And there's Knitters' folk and Knitters' rock 'n' roll and Knitters' little bit country little bit rock 'n' roll." T he crowd, like most crowds, pref erred the up-tempo numbers to the ballads, particulnrly "Wal kin' Cane," "Love Shack" (The Knitters' rendition of the X song, not the D·52's hit), "Skin Deep Town" and "Wrcckin' Dall," which closed the show before the band returned for the encores "Trail of Time" and "Rock Island Line," which brought the audience to its feet thanks to Bonebrake's progressive ambush of his drum set. " -Los Angeles,'' an obvious X fan shouted. "No, not that one," Doc .. answered. The Knitters' then did their version or X's "New World," which seems more appropriate now than it did in the mtd· '80s. Some sample lyrics: "All we need is money/Just give us whDt you can spare/20 or 30 pounds of potatoes and 20 or 30 beers/A turkey on ThDnksgiving/ Like alms for the poor/Al/ we are the necessities and more/It was better before, before they voted fo r what's his namcffhis is · supposed to be the New World ... " lt's nice to have bands like X around to remind us that the world's a mess. But it's olso nice to have bands like The Knitters around to let us relax for a spell, put our designer tennies or boots on the table and listen to some kick-grass music. Let's just hope we don't have to wait five more years. The Knitters arc slated to play at McCabe's Guitnr Shop in Snntn Monica on Jan. 24-25. 0 S aturday's opening oct was the Snn Clemente band 1--rhe Wave," which sounded like Gcddy Lee or Rush bocked up by Iron Butterfly. The loud, monotonous drivel was actually apropos. That's the same kind of music that caused many to flock to bands like X in the first place. 1. u.x. (~ 12. 4,. 2. ''*• .. n.i ..

Eighth Amendment also includes provisions . guarOing against excessive bail or fines IY DP. ill Ellill Alin W hen scntencin1 Irish rebels for treason ia l ns, British judges proaounced: "You arc to be drawn on hurdles to the place of • execution, where you arc to be ·hanged by the neck, but not until you arc dead; for while you are still living your bodies arc to be taken down, your bowels torn out and burned before your faces, your heads then cut off, and yo\lr bodies divided each into foyr quarters, and your heads and quarters to be then at the King's disposal; and may the Almighty God have mercy on your souls." "Caesar had his Brutus, Charles the First hls Cromwell, and George the Third may profit by his example," Henry warned. Interrupted by cries of "Treason!" from Loyalists, he retorted, "IC this be treason, make the most of it!" Fortunately for Henry and the other rebels, the colonies won the War for Independence and their leaders were spared a fate similar to that meted out to the Irish. Until then, the possibility of a traitor's gruesome death hung over them like a dark cloud. concerning the proposals that eventually became the Bill of Rights, Samuel Livermore, one of only two members who addressed the punishment issue, said, 0 lt is sometimes necessary to hang a man. Villains often deserve whipping and perhaps having their ears cu t off; but are we in the future to be prevented from inflicting these punishments because they are cruel?" of the crime for which it is imposed. Nevertheless, what is considered to be excessive is ultimately a matter for the Congress and the courts, and sometimes the wheels of gove rnment, and justice. grind slowly. T ake for example, the matter of defining "excessive ball." It was not until 1966 that the provi sions of the 1789 Judiciary Act concerning bail were updated. Neither the Congress nor the States that ratified the Eighth Amendment spelled out what they meant by cruel and unusual punishment, leaving the Glving practical definition to the language of the Constitution may be the official responsibility of those elected It would be hard to believe that Patrick Henry was ignorant of the penalty attached to the crime of treason when, in that same year, he rallied Virginia against the King with his immortal "Give me liberty or give me death!" Clearly, he was prepared to be charged with treason, for only a few years earlier he had stood before the Virginia legislature to challenge the infamous Stamp Act imposed on the colonies by Great Britain. I n 1789, during the debates over ratification of tho Constitution, Patrick Henry led the opposition in Virginia. demanding the addition of a Bill of Rights. Among bis recommendatiops was a ban of "tortuous or cruel and barbarous punishment." When finally agreed upon as th~ Eighth Amendment to the Constitution. the prohibition was against "cruel and unusual punishment." The obvious problem lies in the definition of what is cruel and unusual. The precise language was taken from the English Bill of Rights of 1689 and prohibitions against excessive punishment actually predated the Magna Carta of 1215. Yet, the fate of thieves, drunks and other petty criminals routinely included whipping, branding of cheeks and the forehead with hot irons, and cutting off or slitting ears. In the brief debate in Congress practical definition to the .people's elected representatives and the judges, apparently to reflect the values of succeeding generations. T he language of the Eighth Amendment is vague concerning its two other provisions as well -that neither excessive bail shall be required nor excessive fin es imposed. The key word in each case is "excessive." Generally, this has been understood to mean that neither bail nor a fine can be grossly out or proportion to the severity and appointed to serve in government office. But the ultimate responsibili ty in our republic is with us as we choose those who will represent us in those offices. Patrick Henry was willing to die for freedom and labored diligently to secure for us the Bill or Rights, including the guarantees in the Eighth Amendment. Whether they remain secure is-tip to us. Dr. Jo Ellen Al/en, a resident of Corona de/ Mar, is the president of the Eagle Forum of California. Duke not the answer to society's -ills M ark Petracca has little room to talk about the' struggle to recove r our gentle nature in political debate. His column, "Duke's politics at home in Or4nge County," is rife with emotion and unsubstantiated facts that inflame passions rather than address real problems in society. In short, his writing and opinions arc a microcosm of what is wrong with American politics. The way to address the ills of society are to identify the root causes and have-a serious intellectual discourse on potential solutions. Tbtt hate crimes alluded to in Pctracca's column arc symptoms, not causes. D avid Duke is symptomatic of bigger problems facing America as the nation struggles to get back on the right track economically and socially. The fact that a politician can remake himself in the image that he feel s will most appeal to the voters betrays the basic ideals of the American political system. Gone arc the men and women who stood by their principles, regardless of how popular they may be, and led by example. The real problem with the David Duke candidacy is the fact that people are paying attention to a man who is intellectually bankrupt and is no more a leader than Ralph Cramden. By focussing attention on the man, the media assists him in getting his message out by encouraging him to dilute his true posi tions and ·in the process hi:lp to create a national contender. M r. Duke has the right to say what he believes. as does Mr. Pctracca and any other American. The tr~edy is that politicians and the media arc so far out of touch with society that they actually lend legitimacy to such candidates. Another tragedy is the effort on the part of Mr. Pctracca to discount the legitimate concerns of the public. Big government, taxes, welfare, busing, affirmative action arc not issues for which the Democrats have exclusive rights to the answers. To use Mr. Petracca's simple logic, if one advocates a flat tax or a reduction in taxes along with a reduction in government spending, then they are a racist supporter of Duke. This oversimplification is how we got to Duke being a force on the American political landscape in the first place. Emotional arguments that ref use to address the problems created and perpetuated by both Republican and Democratic administrations since the New Deal move the nation no closer to finding solutions. The code words referred to by Mr. Petracca arc the creation of those who want to discourage any rigorous discussion of the sad truth of failed policies or of having to make choices because the pocketbook is no longer full . W e must confront head on the problems of sustaining prolonged economic growth, the chronically unemployed, falling living standards, the decline of the family unit a'! a supporter of basic education and behavior. and the rights of the individual within society. These concerns prese11t tough choices that will be painful and will not be addressed until the le aders and media of this country stop giving people like David Duke legiti macy through attention. T he decision to attack the citizens of Orange County as being silent supporters of David Duke and what he represe nts is typical of smug Northeast Corridor political pundits. Citing the New York Times as an authority on anything remotely similar to Orange County only damages the argument he is attempting to support. Moreover, the linkage between Orange County -and the sources of financing for Duke's campaign. begs the question as to how much are the "very sizable" contributions from Orange County. The failure to provide an actual dollar figure does little for the author's positiOn. This unsubstantiated accusa tion against the majority of Orange County residents is unwarranted and demands a responsible accounting on the part of Mr. Petraccn. He must identify and prove who are the racists and bigots of the county. DONALD C. OSTERLUND Costa Mesa Best of the Hotline · How to get involved Photos In the park I am relieved that the parks and recreation commission decided not to allow the sleazy photo shoots at Tc Winkle Park to continue. Apparently, it's now up to the city council to reinforce that decision. The Pilot quoted Councilman Van Holt saying the attire he's seen on models doesn't offend him. If he saw the picture on The Pilot's Dec. 19 front page, I am certainly disappointed in his value system.

He and darling wife Nora were the first sett lers, building their cabin atop a bluff with an ocean view that would have dazzled ol' Balboa himself. And now, after 32 years of roughing it, the Hesters arc about to bid fond farewell to the old homestead. They're preparing to move up the pike a piece, to the relatively new colony of condos known as Belcourt. "The old place was getting too big for Nora and me," 5aid Charley, "what with th ree daughters moving on, and all. We'll miss it, but we'll try to adjust." Helping them adjust to the new lifestyle, I've learned, is word that Belcourt's landscaping alone cost in the ne ighborhood of $15 million - -----·-which has got to be one of the nicest neighborhoods on the entire planet. The Hesters deserve all the best. Their philanthropies arc near-legendary, but the -----• charities are almost incidental. Take away all that scenic splendor, and you still have the same good guy from Hurst, lit., and his sweet lass from down the road in Effingham, where - last I heard -they didn't even have a zillion-dollar ocean view. 0 YOCKS POPULI -There are some funny people out there in Pilotland. to wit: •John V.

The caption: "Old Lange's Sign." • Chuck Torres regrets that Mario Cuomo decided against seeking the presidency. He might've selected Estes Kcrauvcr as his running-mate, thus providing Hispanic voters with this catchy ticket: "Cuomo-Estes?" 0 HAPPY DIRTHDAY, CONSERVATIVELY SPEAKING -Peggy Goldwater Cloy advises tha• her illustrious sire, former U.

If you're searching for a gift for this Grand Old Man of the Grand Old Party. you might consider a personalized selection of spare parts.

"l think Costa Mesa's task force scnc.ls a very clear message," said J:rnet Cater, ac.lministr.1tor fo r the Orange County chapter of ~!others Ag:.11nst Drunk Driving. "That iC you're goin~ be partying with ulcohol to bring in the N~w Year, ~ must hnve a dcsi~nat¢d driver, get a taxi or make some other arrangements. Because to get arrested ·ror d~nk driving is a very expensive proposition." In addition to losing their driver's licenses for 90 dnys, Orange County residents arrested for drunken driving now pay about $1,200 in fines and court costs, nccording to Cater. And a DUI arrest raises insurnncc rntes a minimum of $1,000 a year for five to seven years, she said. Then there's attorney fees. ,___....., "Even renting a limousine would be a whole lot cheaper than getting arrested for drunk driving," Cater said. "It costs a lot of money that is cosily avoided -and that's the &ood news." The bad news is that not eve~e . heeds IM warn Ina. Through November 1990, Costa Mesa police made neatly 1,000 drunken driving arrests and in· vcstigntcd 183 alcohol-related accidents. And so far this' year, at least two Costa Mesa traffic deattis can be blnmed on alcohol. Police arc still tcstinJ the blood content o( three other traffic accident vactims. In one traffic fatality, a 26-year-old Costa Mesa resident is (acing up to 10 years in jail tor the death of his brother.

"The surf wasn't really strong enough where it threatened any houses or structures along the beach," Newport Marine Safety Officer Mike Halphide said. "It was real windy but the surf never picked up to more than five feet." For the first time in months, pools of shallow muddy water formed in the Santa Ana River, but the amount of rain from the two storms was not enough to require Oood control releases from Prado Dam or cause any damage to the 1.4 billion Oood control project. Although the lower part or the river is still under construction, the Oood control project includes ways to ' deal with heavy rains and water released from Prado Dam, said Ed Andrews, a project manager with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Until the storm hits, coast residents can expect highs in the mid 60s and sunny skies, with increasing cloudi- ness New Year's Day, the weather service said.

It's a long-standing appointment. Surprisi ngly, none of the attorneys opt to bounce a single juro r -an extrao rdinary turn of events fo r any courtroom. "We find the Jury to be acce ptable," th twn defense attorneys agree. Acceptable? I can't believe it. Juries are never :icceptable. I've just spent three wee ks getting bounced off interesting cases and now, some 48 hour-. before Thanksgiving, I'm acceptable? I lower my he:.id. I'm doomed. A s usual, th e case involves alcohol. Two guys apparently wander into a San Clemente supermarket, grab a bottle of Kamchatka vodka and then make a break for it. Ofte goes this way, one goes that way. The guy with the bottle is eventually chnsed down a block or so from the market by a customer. A very speedy customer. Before he's knocked to the ground, the accused thief whirls around nnd roises the bottle of vodka. The bottle later breaks but a substitute bottle has been brought to coun to cive us an idea that -If put to the proper teit - it could make quite a weapon, even a deadly weapon. \ The taller of the two defendants, a lanky, dark-haired 19-year-old, sCands accused of petty theft. His defense is that he never touched the bottle of vodka, just ambled into the market with his buddy. No harm, no foul. The second guy, a short but stocky kid with a hu~e wave of hair jutting up off his forehead, is accused of petty theft and assault. The petty theft seems a given, the assault a bit of a stretch. Neither one takes the stand and except for some brief questions directed to the cop who arrested the two, the defense doesn't call a single witness. W hethcr they want it or not, everyone on the jury gets one small steno notebook and a single pencil, generally dull. The idea is to jot down the salient points, little road signs that will help freshen the memory when you hit the jury room. The judge cautions jurors not to become too absorbed in note taking, to watch the trial and pay as much attention to what is not said, as to what is. Everyone seems to have his own style or taking notes. One juror, for instances, writes down the prosecution's side of the case with a ball·point P.cn and the defense side in pencil. A studious juror who sits next to me jots down little questions -"Was it dork?," "Did anyone ask if he luld a receipt?," -as if there will be a question-and-answer session by and by. Still another juror makes very neat grids on the page as if he somehow hopes to reduce the rambling trial to a scientific equation. But he gives up the effort mid't\ay throuah the day and resorts to simply listening. I n two swift \'Otes, we convict both defendants of petty theft. But the assault charge proves to be more nettlesome. It's S:30 p.m. on a Monday and Thanksgiving it bur a memory. We've managed to extend our ju~ stint Into a new month: Everyones in a bit of a !unk. By 6 p.m., we're split 9·3 end leaning toward a piOty verdict. Most juron seom to feel that tho guy intended to assault his f.ursucrs with the vodka bottle. 'm among those who think it's just as rcasc>nablc to believe he merely intended lO 1eare them away. The judge sends us home at 6:10. Aner11 night lb mull things over. the complexion of things has changed dramaticaJly. We're still split 9.3 but this time were leaning toward not guilty. By mid-morning we throw up our hands and admit that we could go on forever and, indeed, it seems as if we have. Back in the courtroom, Kreber tosses out the assault charge and has his clerk read the two guilty verdicts. The taller defendant, the one whose attorney claimed he had nothing to do with the theft, takes the news hard. His chin hits his chest and he lets out an audible sigh. His mother buries her head in her palms. For the first time it strikes me that this is no game we're playing here. I've just help put a man behind bars. The memory stays with me. "I'm very disappointed in you," Krcber says. For a moment I think he's taUdng to the jury, scolding us or something, But he's talking to the two defendants, who arc taken Into custody before I have a chance to leave the courtroom. Both, the prosecutor tells me outside the courtroom, face six months in jail. I t•s 10:17 a.m. and the courtroom is unusually still. The hallways arc empty. The air conditioner in the building drones gently. A lone Marine stands next to a pay phone in the lobby, waiting.

Todd Kehrli, Corona del Mar High's blue-chip quanerback, has made a verbal commitment to continue his football at the University of Louisville, acoontin,g to bis ~h Dave Holland. K.ehrli was sidelined during the Sea Kinp' sixth game of the season, a 21-10 loss to University. He was sncked for the fifth time in that game with 1 :09 left, suf- fering a dislocated left elbow which ended his season. "He's been undergoing rehab on his elbow and i$ now gettinf ready for base- ball," srud Holland. "I thmk Louisville is a program that's going to go somewhere. h's a top school which is going to get bet- ter. By the time he's a senior, he may be a real force." The other finalists for Kehrli, a three- year staner at CdM, were San Diego State, Washington State and Fresno State. While Kehrli was in the starting lineup, the Sea Kings went 2-3-1. He completed 76 or 158 passes for 902 yards, eight inter- ceptions and three touchdowns this sea- son. Under Coach Howard Schnellenberger, the Cardinals went a disappointing 2-9 this season.

Last year, on the individual side, All-CIF and Pacific Coast League Player of the Year accolades were added to his credentials. Still, there was more for Estancia High's 6-foot-7 se- nior to achieve. "We've never got past third place in this tournament," said Fuerbringer, who led the Eagles to a 57-52 overtime •FU.l.-b-. ~"" victory over Tustin on Mon-uer ranger day in the Coast Christmas Classic fin al at Es- tancia High. "We've won a sta!e championship before, but we wanted this one real bad because \\e've neve r won it." Fuerbringer, the tournament's MVP, scored 28 points, grabbed 11 rebounds and blocked three shots as Estancia (10-3) fought off a late Tustin surge, then outscored the Tillers, 7-2, in the extra period. Fuerbringer -who as a sophomore helped the Eagles to a CIF 3-AA title, then as a junior to the state Division Ill banner -had plenty of assistance in this one . "Last Saturday agaimt Huntington Beach (in the semifinals), they v.ere triple-teaming me," Fuerbringer said, "but my teammates were shooting so well, (Tustin) couldn't do that." Fuerbringer opened the overtime period with 3 slam dunk, giving Estancia a 52-50 lead, an advantage it would never lose. Russell }(jng, an off·the-bench guard who made all-tournament for Stancia, netted a 12- foot jumper with 1 :05 left in OT to stretch the lead. Joe Eclson's three free throws capped Es- tancia's overtime scoring. "That's as good as he can play," Estancia Coach Tim O'Drien said of fuerbringer. ''Matt had that look in his eye -he's a tough one to defend. He was real active and that makes things work for him." Tustin (9-6), the defending state Division 11 champion which came in with a six·game win- ning streak, caught fire in the fourth quarter to ·send matters into O\ertimc. "They just got hot," O'Drien s:ml. ' Do'' n by eight f39-3 l) heading into the fourth, Tustin's Maurice Fletcher started light- ing up the house. He drilled three consecutive 3-pointers v. ith 7:29. 7:01 and 6:26 left in regula- tion -giving the Tillers a one·point lead before th e Eagles ~new what hit them.

Estancia boys basketball: The Ea- gles delivered the city of Costa Mesa its first ever boys state championship in bas- ketball, coming through with an 82· 72 conquest of Washington High of Fremorft. Before a capacity crowd for a set of six title showdowns (three divisions of boys . and three divisions of girls} at the Oak- land Coliseum, the Eagles utilized a 17·0 spurt in the first quarter to take control. "We had that reprieve after Pomona.'' said Estancia Coach Tim O'Brien, refer· ring to a 48-45 loss in the CIF Southern Section Division 1lJ finals played earlier at the Los Angeles Sports Arena. Estancia was awarded a berth in the state playoffs as the runncr·up and the Eagles would go on to beat three straight ClF champions (Ramon:i of the San Diego Section and Scf'\itc and Pomona from the Southe rn Section). In the championship game, it was a sterling effort by the Eagles' f\11kc I laas. who notched 27 points, that helped Es- tnncia mnintain its grip on the champion- ship trophy. • 2.

"We've been playing straight through for about two weeks now,'' said Mustanp Conch Billy Brewer. "We had no time to prac· tice between (the Sonora and Cen- tury) to\lrnaments, and 1 think we showed It with our sloppy passes and turnovers. We need 50mc practice time." The Mustanas (4·7) don't return to action until Friday, • non- leasue date at Orange. · Jeff Pickens accounted for m0$t of Costa Mesa's scorina output, pourina in 2.5 points.

RGilOI I -By Richard Dunn RJERBRINGER: From 81 Led by Fletcher (21 poinls), the Tillers opened the fourth quarter with a 15·3 run, assuming a 46-42 lead. After Tustin led, S0-46, Fu- erbringer sank four free throws within 20 seconds to tic it. Tustin, ice cold from the field in the first three quarters (11 of 35), was 7 of 10 in the fourth quarter. "It's a shame for anybody to lose this one.'' O'Brien said. "1 haven't seen us play any better this year. I knew we'd be good this year, but I didn't know how quick we wo\lld tsecome &ood· The Tour- nament or Champions really rewed us up. It made us forget about last year and realize thal we have to work harder." Estancia opened up a nine-point lead (23·14) wit.h 2:12 left in the first hal! after F\aert>ri~aer scored on a futbrcak, but Tustin cut it to 23-19 before the intermission. Jentry Moore. an all-tournament pick for Tustin, ncued a pair of 3- pointen ln the second quartrr u the Tillers crept closer. F1etcber,s haad a<>t hot in the third, hiUifll back·to-blclt treys to pull Tustin to within one. 30-29, but a F\acrl>rinpr led rtan allowed the ho&ta to toll off seven 1traiaht.

"Teams are forcing us to do that -our strength is th e inside game," Estancia Coach Tim O'Brien said of his team's outsfde shooting, an ingredient the Eagles required to defeat Huntington Beach, 61-56, after trailing by Hi points (24-8) earl y in the second quarter. Led by Joe Edson 's fou r 3- pointers, Estancia sank 10 extra- point field goals and overcame a 49-40 deficit with 4:34 left in the game to advance to the tourna· mcnt final for the first time ever. "We've always lost in the semifi- nals," O'Brien said. "We were down again st Huntington Beach, 17-8, after the first quarter, then they scored the first seven points of the second quaner. But then Victor Trujillo hit a 3·pointcr to make it 24-11 and things just kind of snO\\ balled and ii was bombs away . "We Y.ere fortunate th:u they were all going, down. Huntington Beach stayed in a zone for so long, lhen we finally got through and the kids found some openings." Matt Fuerbringer (15 points), Edson (14) and Jim Faulkner (12) fini shed in double figures for the Eagles, but reserve guard Russell King was the hero, scoring 10 of his 12 points in the fourth quarter as Estancia outscored the Oilers, 23-13, in the fina l frame to earn lhc win. King scored eight points in the final three minutes, hitting a pair of 3-pointcrs and sinking two free throws with 13 seconds remaining in the contest. "It's not that new for us," O'Brien said of the 3-point raid. "Against Disl'J)p Amat (in the Tournamenl or Champions) we had 12 3-poinlers against a zone defense."
