Home My WebLink About1994-12-08 - Orange Coast PilotTHE NEWPORT BEACH • While you're addressing your • · Orange County lacking strong leaders hip T here is trouble in paradise. Denma.rk i$ not the only place where some1hing is rotten. The land of Mickey Mouse and South Coast Plaza, of golden. beaches and the blue Pacific, is bankrupt. Belly-up. The jok.cs are making the rounds already: "The good news is, your aunt died and left you a million dollars. The bad fflll Ila Ill On the Coast news is, it's all in Orange County bonds." We are in the_dumper and we know who put us 1here. But who will lead us out? Among the truths that have emerged from this fiscal train wreck is 1hat Orange County is leaderless. We have a commillee of five • and an army of bureaucrats, but there is not a leader among them. There is the chairman of the committee, but Tom Riley is counting the days until he can go·into blessed retirement. • There is no one to stand up and ~ay, as Winston Churchill did, "l have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and s'~cat," and then lead the county -0ut of its darkest days. There is no Roosevelt to soothe us and restore our confidence and tell us, "We have nothing to f car except fear itsetf." Who in county go"crnment has the stature and the credibility to do that - 'GJddi Vasquez? Why is it that our country has a president, our states have governors, our ci ties have marors but our counties have only politicians \\ho meet every Tuesday and huff and puff and accomplish precious liule? How is it that this committee of five permits one man -one man! -to play around with billiortof dollars -billions/ - of the public's money with, apparently, no supervision, no accounlability, no nothin'? How is it that John Moorlach was virtually the only person in this bankrupt county of ours lo realize the perilous future of 1his huge pile of money? To whom does the treasurer of Orange County report, anyway? Doesn't he have a boss? Doesn't anybody review fiscal policies and practices? This, of course, is 20-20 hindsight. As long as Bob Citron's investment strategics worked and the cities and schools and water districts were rolling in dough, nobody cared about looking over his shoulder. The guy was a hero and government financial types came to Santa Ana from all ove r the land to worship al the shrine of Citron and partake of hii. fiscal wisdom. John Moorlach tried to tell us that we were careening down the toll road to financial ruin, but we didn't listen. We characterized him as a kook, called his tactics alarmist, and voted heavily for Citron when Moorlach tried to unseat the treasurer in last June's election. l wrote strongly against Moorlach, not for the message he was trying to send, but for the way he was doing it. The tactic of trying to upset a multi-billion-dollar apple cart by going to New York-based financial media was, I believed, a lousy way to get elected. It was, I felt, just more piranha-style politicking: often massively hyperbolic, often plUC fiction. Unfortunately, that was not the ease this time. • I don'1 regret criticwna Moorlach's methods. I do regret not goina to John, not hearing him out and ll)'ina 10 understand what he wu uyin1 and writing about it. If that wu dumb on my part, I cenainly have a lot or company.

POSNJi.a, SrM1 Wann T hcse were S\ippased to be county Supervisor Tom Riley's glory days. Instead, the retired Marine Corps brigadier general is back in the thick of battle as his 20-year tenure on the county Board of Supervisors comes to a close. The past few weeks have produced a near whirlwind of ceremonies thanking Riley for his work on the board. And there have been other rewards over the course of two decades: His name now graces the John Wayne Airpon terminal, a building at • <:ha pman University and a South County wilderness park that will be dedicated this weekend. But the lasting image, unfonunatcly, may be Riley's sad face announcing that the county's gone belly-up. "I've almost had tears in my eyes a couple of times today," the 25-year-plus Newport Beach resident said between emergency-session board meetings on Wednesday. "I've bad people call up today and say 'Tom, for all you've done, this shouldn't have happened to you.'

All three politicians opted not to seek re-election in November, a decision that throws most of their assistants into the fray for work in the political arena. F9rtunately, Republican sweeps here and across the state and nation will soften the blow. And if the Republicans win a state Assembly vote and oust Speaker Willie Brown, the bounty could be hundreds of partisan jobs for Republican loyalists, insiders said.

We've had 'l very busy year around the ol' treasurer's office! Where to start? For the first .time in two-and-a-hair decades or public service, Bob had a challenger for his treasurer-tax collector scat this June. We had an exciting campaign. Bob was a little taken back by the challen_ge at first, especially when his opponent, a fellow by the name or John Moorlach, made all sorts of wild charges about Bob and his high-yield 'investments. Mr. Moorlach tried to get. support from folks around the county, but Bob's friends, God bless 'em, wouldn't budge. Mr. Moorlach said he tried to get anyone on the Board of Supervisors to listen, but he only got the brush off. He said Roger Stanton wouldn't even return his calls. Only the East Coast media types- would give Mr. Moorlach any favorable press -and you know bow they are. All the support was heartening news for Bob. Cities such as Newport Beach and Costa Mesa • . -which had volu ntariJy, invested a combined $19 million! - believect in Bob and his investment strategy and kept their money with the Orange County fund. And imagine what confidence a school district like Newport-Mesa had in Bob. The trustees decided to go out and get a $47 million loan to invest for their taxpayers! Bob was so grateful he gave his word that the $47 million was guaranteed, and Newport-Mesa took him at his word. , Only the stuffed shirts at the Mesa Consolidated Water District wouldn't give their money to Bob. Their problem is their old-fashioned way or thinking about investments: safety first, then liquidity and fmally yield. How boring! And it wasn't just Bob's friends who came out in support of him. So did the newspapers! n was really quite touching. Good ink, endorsements! Bob delivered big returns, everyone agreed. No questions asked! Quite exci ting times. And no one, except Mr. · Moorlach, mentioned anything about risk. State Sen. Marian Bergeson even withdrew her endorsement of Mr. Moorlach after he said Bob's investments were too risky. Since Bob was a Democrat in Orange County, Marian coming to his rescue was something speciaJ. · And guess what? The voters believed in Bob, too.

"~a~ically I'm trying to get or- ganized and act information " said Marc Winthrop, special 'bank- ruptcy counsel retained by the city of Newport Beach. "There's a lot of conjecture as to what's going to happen next, but nobody knows." The "wai t and see" attitude was echoed throughout the Newport Deuch arid Costa Mesa area. Many agencies held special . strategizing meetings; others said meetings without additional information would be pointless. · Incoming county Supervisor Marian Dcrgeson called for im- mediate change within the county Treasury Department, while Con- gressman Dana Rohrabacher (R- Huntington Beach) sharply criti- cized the investment pracJiccs of former County Trea~urec-Tax Col-· _ lec1or Robert Citron. Law enforcement and schools hastened to assure residents that citizens' needs could be· met in short-term projects. The Costa Mesa Sanitary District, with $2.8 million invested in the pool, claimed that six planned projects will not be affected by the coun ty developments. But long-range plans affecting several cities wilLlikely be placed on hold. Until the county releases more information, officials said, the status of these projects ii un- clear. Costa Mesa City Manaaer ~n Roeder questioned the fate of a project to replace radio systems for law enforcement agencies thJ'oughout the county. The project, which will cost in excess of $72 million, had been scheduled to go before the Board of Supervisors for contract approval at next Tues- day's sesSion. • Taking to heart its city co uncil's advice to , consider shared re- sources, the city of Newport Beach gathered city attorneys from cities throughout the state for an infor- mational meeting in council cham- bers Wednesday afternoon. The gathering, scheduled after a coun- cil closed session meeting Monday, included representatives from as Car as Mountain View and Clar- emont. A group of city managers will liave a similar meeting_ today in Ir- vine. With so many of them involved . in the failed county investment fund, cities will be forced to pool rc~urces, according to Winthrop. "There's power in numbers," said Newport Beach City Manager Kevin Murphy. "This is the.biggest bankruptcy in the history of the world." · .

The Chapter 9 flling may even make the situation more stable, since it freezes the fund, said Mlchael Fine, 1he district's directo r of fiscal ser- vices. Superintendent Mac Bernd has spent the last few days staying near his phone and pager, gathering expert advice, and sharing information with other school . districts in the county. Today, school su- pcri'ntendcms and business managers across the county will meet with officials at the county Department bf Education for further updates and briefing. Meanwhile, financial advisers and bond counselors arc studying Newport· Mesa's options. "Our overriding concern is that the Chapter 9 bankruptcy the county de- clared was really.intended to keep agen- cies in the pooLand to allow the situa- tion to get organized so it can be re- solve d," Bernd said. The Newport-Mesa Unified School District joined three oth&r public scfiool agencies to borrow money to invest in the pool. Newport-Mesa earned $1.l million in flnt·yeat rctuma. But wilb lbc county unowtcement last week that tbc invcament portfolio had dropped a Sl.5 billion in value, fol· lowed by tbc Tuelday announcement of a Chapter 9 bankruptcy, the 5ituation has changed. The district bu a totaJ of $80 million with the county. About $33 million is in general ind capitaJ fund accounts and about $47 million is in an escrow ac· count. Trustees made the $47 million in· vestment in early 1993, after they were approached by a brokerage firm. Along with the investment came a $260,000 "cap" the district bought as prolection in case inte rest rates dropped. And through a · verbal agree· men\ with the county, the principal is guaranteed. "It is our understanding that· our money is in a segregated account and it is secured to make sure it can be paid back," Bem~said. "The dif(icult part for everyone as· sociated with this is that counties are seen as very safe places to put money: And when something like this happens, it is very d~oncerting."

Michael fine, the district's director or fiscal services, cau- tioned that the school district's day-to-day business will be taken care of by the county and that bills will be paid and pay· roll met on schedule. Paularino School pJtrent Linda Snecn said the employees she talked to said they aren't worried about getting paid this week. "I don't think there is much fear yet," Sneen said. "I've talked to o ther paren~ about this and we're not worried. "[ mean, we've hlld eve ry- thing else hit us. What 'else could happen now? Anyway, is the~e a better place to live?

" As expected, the county bankruptcy was a big topic of conversation Wednesday among teachers at Corona dcl Mar High School, said Mook.· ..

Mook pointed out that even though a concern exists with teached about the county's ability to come through with paychecks, the bigger worry centers on the hit schools may take. They will wait and see what happens. "We've worked so hard to bring about really positive change and when you get hit with t hi s, it's just horrib le," she said.

Riley's list of accomplishments, awards and civic involvement runs nearly six type-written pages. "I think one of his most positive and far-reaching legacies will be his on-going commitment to open space in the county," said Mc- Daniel, a Costa Mesa resident. "Under his leadershi p there have been thousands or acres that have been left as open space, especially in the 5th District."

"I do want to see if there's something less strenuous and (le!.s) demand- ing." . Most of his hobbies have gone by the wayside, he said. .

In my opinion, Bob Citron has been using an imprudent investment policy for many, many years. The fact that he was lucky enough to get away with it for awhile was his good luck. It inevitably blew up in llis face. Prof cssional managers are unanimous in declaring his investment policy to be imprudent. l;'lOBERT HARRIGAN Newport Beach 0 Mr. Citron is going to cost us a lot of heartaches, and city ~erviccs, city and county services arc definitely going to feel about it. My kids go to school here, and I don't understand as. to why this man is mismanaging funds. And why these • politicians and the supervisors arc behind him. Are the supervisors going to pay the $1.5 billion .. nme to heal, not aggravate Let's not further belabor how our mayor should be selected. John Hedges is mayor and we wish him well. But let's also not unfairly attack, as one of your readers has, aoother council member who was a candidate for the position. To say that Jean Watt should not be mayor because she supported Measure A is to say that sLx · former, well-respected mayors -including Clarence Turner and Evelyn Hart -who also supported Measure A, were unqualified for the job. Jean Watt and a broad spectrum of solid citizens dollars? This is a question which Mr. Citron should be asked. I think he s.hould be tried for mismanaging funds and should be sent to jail. 0 NICK SHARMA Newport Beach I'm calling regarding the Bob Citron actions relative to the mismanagement of his fiscal esponsibilitfos, and the outrage that we have, especially in light of my experience in the cash management field, where investment guidelines are clearly d<?Cumented and made part of any professional organizati9n's management o( their • cash resources. In light or this, it's amazing to hear on the news that the f"itron was able to get these gu idelines lifted from his responsibilities so that he oould speculate with the taxpayers' funds. CORRUPONDINCI SupporUng cny employees ' I'm tired of people criticizing our hardworking city o( Newport Beach employees. These people are a group of talented, highly trained, skilled professionals who know how to do th eir job well, .even under the most adverse conditions. The last . thing they need is interference from a loud-mouth, self-styled expert with more money than brains. In an emergency or crisis, if you want to be helpful, stand back and let the professionals do their job. Above all don't get in the way and Residents of Spyglass Hill want to stop the expansion of Pacific View Memorial Par.k. sought through a straightfo rward, democratic · process, to test if the voters of Newport Beach would support a plan to acquire land for open space and recreation. The voters said no to the plan, not to Jean Watt. And to those who say she represents only a narrow constituency, take note: when first elected in 1988, Jean Watt's vote total was larger than any other candidate for the council, including two incumbents who were reelected. When she was reelected in 1992, she rece ived more votes than her two components combined. Isn't it time to be serious about healing, not aggravating our differences? BARBARA AND ROBERT SHELTON Newport Beach 0 l want to thank the Daily Pilot for its support du ring my recent campaign for a seat on the Newport Beach City Council. Whil e the process went on a little longer than l had anticipated, th e end result was extremely satisfying. It was a very interesting time to say the least, and I know you r support in the matter contributed greatly to my ultimate success in the election. Again, thank you. THOMAS C. EDWARQS Newport Beach impede their progress. These hardworking people respond aJI hours or the day and night. In the middle of the night when we're curled up in our nice warm beds, they're out there in the bitter cold with the wind blowing, sometimes soaking wet, trying to restore our services. Instead of criticizing their efforts, get out of bed, brew up a cup of coffee, and fake it out to them, to help warm their bone-chilled, tired bodies. In the summer when it's so hot you can fry an egg on·thc sidewalk, go out and offer them a pitcher of ice-cold waler. · Sure they get paid, but their jobs are often thankless, back-breaking, bard work.

Who cares? 0 SONDRA scorr Newport Deach I voted for Mr. Citron, and I'm very disappointed 'that he doesn't stand by principles or hon esty. I think that he has misreprese nted himself, he has not had good judgment in investment. """ JEAN ROBERTSON Corona del Mar . " Costa Mesa -a better place for dogs, home less, bike riders, s'oftballers, and Christmas banners. As for your council being anti-business, nonsense! Was it just because you instituted "traffic impact fees?" You know, those ne\v fee s whe re you guys decide how much each new business will puy by throwing a dart at a board in some back room? Shoot, even before "traffic impact fees" Costa-Mesa had the highest development costs in the county. So what's another $60,000 or S 100,000? New businesses can easily afford Costa Mesa that. I'll bet all those vacant stores have tenants clamoring to rent them. Anti-business? Nonsense! Just because you snuck through, with no 'open discussion, a downzone of every multi-residential property in Costa Mesa within that precious general plan that you're so proud of? The downzone that yo ur own planning ~ta!f recommended against? The one that guarantees that all existing and future Costa Mesa slums ca n never be economically redeveloped? That leaves plenty of available cheap rentals for "our l'T\Ulti-cultural community," to quote you. 1'11 bet Costa Mesa property owners don '.t think that's antj-busioess. Jay, we'll miss you and 20 years down the roau we'll thank you for the Costa Mcs:i you and Sandy created for us in the 1990s. If any of the folks are still here, fine. 1f not, l 'm sure all those others can thank you. MICHAEL STEINER Doing business in Costa Mesa sin ce 1970 Charitable comment for Fred 1 just want to thank Fred Martin for his column in support o( our local charities. 1 was afraid the old town had turned mean. JEAN MATHEVET·FEMLlNG Costa Me sa At least cemetery's quiet So, the residents of Spyglass Hill say Pacific View. Memorial Park Mausoleum will bring down the vaJue of their properties. The cemetery was there long before Spy Gl:iss Hill wns built. Would they really like some very loud parties and noisy children, barking dogs, down below them? That is noise. We used to live in Harbor View homes, the oobc cravcls up the hill. A cemetery woulsi have been welcome. Everybody down there is quiet, enjoy it. HELEN Tl IOMPSON Newport Deach Thank you to firefighter This note is to thank off-duty Newport Deach fireman Brian and his small daughter Rebecca for the help they gave me Nov. 16 On 17th Street in Costa Mc .a, as a light turned green a huge motor home in front of me and lost a propane tank, which ended up wedged under my car. The car in back of me stopped. One in back of her rear-ended ;1er car. Traffic conge)tcd. Just then Brian happened 10 see this and look charge. He directed traffic to move two cars, then jacked up my car, removed the tank, stopped traffic again for me to move my car to a safe spot. Then he carefully checked under my car to be sure it was OK. His excellent trainirt~ and calm directions ~undled a dangerous situation. . He said, "We're here to help people." How fortunate for me and for all of us to have a kind caring fireman take the time to help on their day off. What a wonderful contrast to all the political nastiness of the eleclion.

BY RlcHAllD DUNN, Sroan Wann NEWPORT BEACH -As football practice winds down, Coach Jeff Brinkley tells his troop to stand on the sideline and line up, simulating a game situation. ~ani goes to a knee, and the players sprint to p:iidfield. Its only Wednesday, but this is clearly a focused team that expects to perform similar expressions of jubilation Fri- day night in the ClF Division V title game against Servite at Orange Coast College (7:30): "It's not bei}lg cocky," Newport Harbor senior tight end/ linebacker Mike Freeman said. "It kind of takes the pres- sure out of it. It's like vis- ualizing a win .-It's not "OK, let's go," Brin- kley roars. "We're going to practice how we're going to win this thing." . 'h's visua lizing a win.

SERVITE From Pa1• 81 The defense has done just that since the team's las t defeat, a 43-28 loss to St. John Bosco, Oct. 7. -For those unfamiliar with the school's gridiron lore, a quick refresher. . Scrvite earned back-to-back Clf Big-Five Confer- ence titles in 1982·83, a runner-up finish in 1978. and was home to future NFL performers Steve Beuerlein (dass of '83) and 'Derek Brown (class of '89), both of whom were named CJF Player of the Year in their division as seniors. In th e last eight games, the Friars have allowed just 59 points (7.4 per contest), including three straight shutouts against Ocean View and playoff foes ~estern and Villa Park. But the season beaan inauspiciously for the Golden West League's first champion, as former Angelus League rival Mater Dei handed the Friars a 55-14 lesson in the opener. . FUJNBI .......... MaaJiocco had the following to say about Newport at Monday's ClF luoc~een: "Last week (against semifinal opponent El Toro) we had to prepare-for the pass, but this week is different. Newport doe$n't really pass; they're a smashmouth team. They try to run the ball d~wn your throat. We want to force them to thtow." Maybe Magliocco hadn't seen enough Newport video by Monday, but he's in for a surprise ir he thinks Sailor senior quaderback John Giordani can't burn teams through the air. . After all, Giordanl. the Daily Pilot Sea View Leagu e Offensive Player of the Year, has thrown for more single-season yards (1,358) and touch~owns (16) than·any Newport quarterback in the 1990s. , A.nd while "Gio" completed just · two passes in. playoff wins over Saddleback and foothill, he torched quarterfinal victim Brea Olinda, which packed in an eight-man front to stop 1he Harbor run, for 161 yards and two touchdowns on a ~reer-high 14 completions in 22 allempts. The Sailors' eoun1y-widc smashmouth reputation has obscured the fact that they have averaged 15 pasS attempts and 105 aerial yards per game this season. Don't be surprised if a big completion by Giord ani. who has been sacked just five times all season, is the key to victory for the Sailors. • Speaking of big Giordani completions, how about that 4-yard nip hauled in by tight end Dan McDonou~h on second,.down from the Foothill 8, in the California tic-breaker possession that led to Harbor's 13-10 semifinal win. "That was the same pass l'd dropped in the end zone against Irvine (Oct. 14), and Gio looked right at me and smiled as we broke the huddle,'' said McDonough, who hauled in the pass while being leveled by a foothill defensive back. "It may not have been my best catch, but it was my most important." • The Servile High program reeks with tradition (Magliocco's father Steve played football for the Friars in' 1966-67 and current assistant coach Ted Havorka W:l;S . an All-Clf linebacker on Scrv11e·~ 83 section championship tealfu, which finished ranked No. 1 in th stole ond No. 3 In the nution) . Dul Newport, ln it& 64th va111ity season, comp:ared to &he Friars' 35th, bears the legacy of former players on the chests or current sturs, in the form of jersey numbers. McDonough longed to wear No. 5, which had previou~ly been distinguished by Darin Mangnall, Ryon Abbey and Jason Johnson. Similarly, Brian Johnson, the Daily Pilot Sen View League MVP selected 46 because of his • admiration for '93 graduate Justin Ketcham, a senior outside linebacker Cor the '92 Clf runners-up. Juni.or all-league offensive tad.le Sherif Pepic took the No. 76 torc;h from Beau Ralphs, an All-Clf senior two·way tackJc from the 1992 squad, now at Arizona.· •From the now the truth can be told department: Newport Harbor High senior Mike Freeman was asked about his knowledge of the Servile football program's winning tradition while growing up in Orange County. "Actually, 1 grew up as a Corona (dcl Mar) fan," said the two·timt: All·Sea View League tight end, who split four varsity meetings with the Dack Bay rival Seu Kings in h1~ three-year varsity career. "My uncle (Dick Freeman, \\ho returned CdM this season as an assistant) was coaching al Corona (from 1976·87), and we :ih a)'~ ~cJ to go to' the. CdM games," FreemJn continued. "Even now, when l hcJr the (Newport) cheerlc:ldcrs yelling cheers, I find myself inseriing Corona for Newport in my minJ. ·· •McDonough, along with sever,11 other senior le-.lders, expressed a desire last spring to work harder than any team in Coach Jeff llrinklcy's nine-year tenure. To that end, they approached Dcfen~ive Coordinator Tony Ciarelli, "ho oversees conditioning. and gave him carte blunclle to run them into the ground. "We kriew there would be timci. when we. didn't want to work. but Coach Ciarelli wouldn't let us slide," McDonough explained. "There we re limes when he was running us, we thought he'd ne,er stop. We started second guessing ourselves there fora white. but it has all worked out for the bcsr." Scrvite tradition also manifests itself in a series ·or gam<.:·night rituals, which have become as recogniz- :iblc as the team's basic black and white uniforms .• There's the prcgame Hut Drill -a series of syn- chroni~ed movements to a "We thought we were going to win that game, so that was tough," said senior standout linebacker Tony Magliocco.

Then we went out and beat a very good team (26-21). It did a lot for our confidence." Another non-league triumph over Fountain Valley preceded the Bosco loss, and the Friars ran roughs· hod through the newly-formed Golden West League, averaging 41.6 points in five victories. But the ground-oriented offense, led by first-team all-league running backs David Bedard (1 ,100 yards on 167 carries with 28 touchdowns), Frank Patti (803 yards on 146 attempts), and (496 yards and 12 TDs on 92 carries), throttled down in the first two playoff contests.

After all, here's a ·guy who started a ~'Mille Club" at Saddleback High School in Santa Ana with 'll f ri~ -and pro- moted it' with SJft'Ming "Mooooooo" b.ianers -primarily to get a more prominent photo of himself and his buddy in the year- book. • · A Generation ~.er _who grew up listening to KJSS ~d Zep- pelin, he has become one of the most highly regarded contempo- rary jazz artists in Orange County • -specializing in the fluegelhorn, of all instruments. Yet, the 28-year-old musician - who honed his talents at the old Cafe Lido .. in Newport Beach,- says he feels he's been at his most creative just lately. . "I'd say over the last 1 ~ years, I've beeo writing better than I , ever have," Guerrero · said, as he sat in Cafe Concerto, the new Newport Beach coffeehouse- restaurant where he will host his Christmas show Sunday. Fans will get a good dose of Guerrero's brand of creativity and energy at tne Cbristma~ concert, an annual favorite traditionally held at the Coach House in San Juan Capi.strano:'.Unforl\fnatcly;--t the show took a break last year due to a financial glitch when an underwriting.deal fell through. "Putting on ~ show lik~ that is so expensive,".said Guerrero, a Santa Ana native who now lives in Aliso Viejo. "You've got almost 30 musicians on stage ... and at the end of it, we were always in debt." -m WHAT Tony Guerrero Band's 1994 Chrlsfma• Show -~HI Cafe Concerto 2675 llvlne Ave. NeWport leach WHEN 7:30 p.m. Sunday HOW MUCH $10 (br1ng canned food or new/used clothing) . MORE INFO 222-1616 ~l\llC M.unN/DAILY PILOT Fluegelhorn player Tony Guerrero teams up with other jazz musicians on Sun.day .at Cafe Concerto for his annual Christmas concert. But Gueri:ero "just loxes to put on a musical party. So t~is year, he simply scaled things down a Bit. He found a perfect smaller venue in Cafe Concerto, which friend Julian Nafal just opened on Irvine Avenue. • And with The Wherehouse record stQres, Fahrenheit Records and, his longtime supporter, the KSBR radio station in Mission Viejo sponsoring the show, Guer- rero was able to keep the ticket price to a mere $10. Guerrero is also asking all concert-goers to · bring canned food and/or new or slightly used clothing or toys for admission -which fulfills his wish to henefit charities with his work. The number of guest artists won't be as grandiose as in holiday concerts past, but there's plenty of star power: Grant Geisman, former guitarist with Chuck Man- gione; Jeff ~shi~a. s.axophonist with the inte,rnationally acclaimed band The Rippingtons; Tom Zink, leader of the contemporary jazZ group Marketplace; and Dave Enos, a bassist who has bee rt f ea- ' tured with the D·avid Benoit Band ·and Arturo Sandoval. And, of course, there's Guer- rero, leading the group in new ar- rangements of Christmas songs and performing both his new work and old "favorites." The concert's low-key, personal focus in a way will reflect Guer- rero's current attitude toward his music and the state of contempo- rary jazz in general. H~'s a bit tired of what he· describe& as the commercialism of jazz, in which musicians' creativity is dictated by decisions made by the "money LOCALAllT J people," as Guerrero puts it. "Son1e of the best musicians I've heard can't get a record deal," he said. A coinmon complaint in this day and age, in an)' industry. But Guerrero maintains a positive out· look. He soundly believes "the • tide will turn" and that jazz anb1s will be "free to take control again" with their creative instincts. And there is "good" commercial music, he said. In fact, much of the music he grew up listening to -during those "Milk Club" days -is clas- sified as commercial rock or pop. He didn't get turned onto jazz until after high school, when he got hooked on classical works by the likes of Louis AJlll.)trong and Duke Ellington. And Guerrero. who has three solo albums, has done !>Orne com· merci:il work h11nsclf, helping · write and pla)' on other musicians·" albums, i.ncludmg a recent rock :. music compila1ion. " Despite his achievements, Gucr rero's refreshingly youthful out- look still shines through when he ~4 t:ilks of being asked to pl::iy on· '. other musicians' albums, or hear· : ing someone at a j:iu concert play,. hb own \\Orks. ! "That's the stuff that makes me: feel like I've :iccomplished some· thing," he said. ''When peopie like Grant Gebm:in will come do,,n and play \\ith me (in a concert or on an album) ... to me, that':. a big compliment." Iris Yokui is the Daily Pilot's city editor. Scott Kennedy traded southeril · Comfort for northern exposure - Story and photo by LAUlll MENDENHALL F or veteran Ne,wporters, the name Scott Kennedy has long been synonymous with painted r-enderings of their beloved Bay, and vivid hallmark scenes in and around its landmark Harbor.

However, in 1990, Kennedy, his wife and now 10-year-old daughter Keeley traded seaside California comforts for the northern exposure of coastal Oregon. There they settled O!lto a 23-acre plot of forest land, which they wistfully du,bbed "Solgaard" (meaning Sun Parm), situated above an estuary of Alsea Bay near the small community of Waldport.

TUE WORKING ACTOR -.Denison Glass works at American Ma· chincry and Engineering in Newport Beac h. When she isn't workjn$, she's busy acting in plays. Her current assignment is one that she 1s thriJlcd to be in, the unique holiday play "Greetings," which plays Fri· day and Saturday evenings through Dec. 17 at Way Off Broadway Play- house in Santa Ana. . Glass saw the original production is San Diego and loved it, and lob- bied for Way Off Broadway to do the show, so she could be in it. It's easy to see its allure. The play revolves around a somewhat dys- ~unctional family who is shown the true spirit of Christmas, but the play 1s more than feel-good entertainment. It features fascinating discuss-ions pitting Christian beliefs and values against new·aae theology in an unex- pected manner, and is a holiday must-sec. local theater goers will also recognize 11Grcctings" cast members Karen Mangano and David Rousscve from the wonderful production of "Same Time, Next Year" at The Theater District in Costa Mesa, and David Alan Nelson, who was notable for bis work in The Theater Dis- trict's eicellent production of "The Gingerbread Lady" earlier this year, but who rates a standing ovation for his performance in "Greetinp."

But the festival of Las Posadas is only a part of the "Fiesta Navidad" celebration at the Orange County Performing Arts Center this Sunday at 3 p.m. Presented by the Orange County Philharmonic Society, which has had success in the past in presenting J,..atino-oriented entertainment at the Center, "Fiesta Navidad" features Mariachi 'Los Camperos de Nati Cano and a host of olher performers. The program includes music and dance from the most festive and colorful Christmas celebrations in Mexi· co, including Las .Posadas. For tickets ($8 to $30), l:all 556-2787. A WACKY .CHRISTMAS -·Costa Mesa resident George Quick and his frequent partner in crime, Beth Hansen, have teamed up jn t)le past as the fictional lounge duo, Sal and Amanda Gecko. This year, they offer "Christmas with Sal and Amanda," and if you've never seen their hysterical act, you're in for a trea,t. The show is a campy send up of all the t?ad lounge acts And maudlin holiday spedals that ever were. Their show closes this Sunday at the 'La · Posada Magi ca' more than holiday play I t's Christmas Eve, and 14· year-old Gracie is depressed. Her baby brother has re· ccntly died after a long illness, and she is so distraught she cannot even bring herself to accompany her parents to church. She is angry at God for taking her brother and refuses to light candles for him. Even the happy, singing people in a posada procession who come to her door are told to go away. She b persuaded to join them,' but her negativity cause~ odd, dark things to happen to the procession. The story. may be fiction, but the setting of a posada is a realis- tic base from which playwright Oc· tavio Solis has fashioned a new }loliday play, "La Posada Mngica," that opens this weekend on South Coast Repertory's Second Stag~ "A posada is a pageant that happens every ycar,a'round Christ- mas," explained~Solis, prior to a recent rehearsai at SCR. "It is conducted by the (Latino) com· munity in order to emulate and honor the search foT the inn that Mary al'ld Joseph went on (to find -shelter for the pregnant Mary), and hopefully to collect goods or donations for a cause like the church or a local mission or char- ity, or maybe just candy for the children that arc on the march." The biblical journey of Mary .- aBd Joseph is not unlike the per- sonal journey tha t the character of Gracie goe~ on in the play, but the play takes on a more mythic qual- ity as she begins to feel like an agent of God a she helps the peo- ple in the posada, including the woman portraying ~ary, who is .m WHAT: "La Poloda Maglca" WHHI: South Coast ...,.,._ tort• Second lfQge WHEN: ..

"La Posada Magica" is more than just a.holiday-themed play. Commissfoned by SCR - which stageti Solis' "Man of the Flesh" in 1990 -the play features music by Marcos Loya and lyrics by Solis. Their method of songwriting, however, was as unique as the play itself. Solis took a story treatment to Loya, and they decided where to put the songs within the frame· wdrlc. of the play, as well as the style and mood of the songs. Solis took a tape of the music that Loya created and wrote lyrics, and the play, using that music. "It was a really odd way of going about it," Solis admitted. "I don't think of this as a m\Jsi- cal. It's not 'My Fair Lady,' it's not 'Oliver,' with songs every five or 10 minlttes. All the songs are tied to th.e event of going on a posada, because in a real posada, people sing.

If you cut the song our, the story doesn't make sense." In an infrequent use of live music at SCR, Loya,and two other musicians will be on stage playing and singing at every performance. SCR, which has been committed to Latino theater for quite some time, has spent several years searching for a holiday play that "would be part of not just their repertoire, but the repertoire of Latino American theater," noted Solis. He said that Latino theater comparues across the United States are looking for new holiday plays to present. But "La Posada Magica" is not just for Latinos. "I hope that everybody will fe· late to 1t. I'm writing it for anyone who has any kind of sensibility about renewal and that strange duality between life and death and transcendence. I have Jewish friends, and I want them lo come and relate to this play. I don't want 1hert1 to think this is a Chris- tian story. It's a cop out to write about Christmas and not deld with the Christ·story and t.he nativity · because that's what it's about. But the story of Mary and Joseph is - something that any society, an)'... culture can relate to. There are certain aspects that Latinos will really respond to, because there are some traditional songs that we respond to as a culture. It doesn't mean that anyone else will not." Director Cruz Go112alez said working on the play has been "a real joy" because of "the talent and the quality of the work." "We're real proud of it," Go~alez said.

Thursday. December e, 1994 Cl LOCAL TlllAna SCR puts the Scrooge to us again with stunning 'CarQI,' By TIMOTHY TITUS I n 1984. a young boy had the experience or a lifetime, he got to play a small role in South Coast Repcrtozy's fifth annual production or Charles Dickens' holiday classic, "A ' Christmas Carol." Even then, the production had become an Orange County Christmas tradition, but that boy has watched it grow into an i ntegral part or the holiday .\eason, indispensable for hundreds of Orange County residents. Ten years later, that boy is reviewing wha t has become Orange County's most cherished holiday tradition. The production bas retained its exceptional quality throughout its 15 years, and sustained only minor cnst changes. The actors seem as eager to return to their roles as the audience is to see them perform. Hal Landon Jr., as alwa}'S, . delivers a stunning performance of the grasping miser, Ebeneezer Scrooge. Landon has this amazing :ibillly to 'portray a terrible and cruel miser, and yet at the same time make us laugh at and love him. The highligh t of his pe·rformance is his final reform, as Scrooge shuns the existence he has known in favor of kindness and generosity. Though the character changes gradually throughout the show, the final trnnsformation from wretchedness to giddiness is always a delight to behold. Forget egg nog and mistletoe, '110 Chri stmas season is complete until you see Hal Landon Jr. flip into his top hat and set out into the newly illuminated world like a giggling schoolboy. The ghost of Jacob Marley, as occ serves Christmas treat for ' pre-schoolers By TOM TITUS I t may not be "A Christmas Carol" or "A Child'.s First Christmas in Wales," but Orange Coast College's "Old fashio ned Christmas and Ice Crea m Social" offers a ton of interactive fun for younger thea tergoers. The kiddie-oriented program - which features a melodrama entitled "f ast Train to the Pborhousc ... or, Christmas Derailed" -wjnds up this weekend in OCC's Orama Lab Theater. It's not "Oklahoma" either, but the corn is as high as nn elephant's eye in this freewheeling holiday frolic. The intermission olio not only includes blackout gags that must have preceded vaudeville , it encourages you·ngsters in the audience to contribute their own jokes, with winners earning free tickets to a futu re OCC show. Loosely assembled by director Alex Golson, the show is ideal fare for pre·schoolcrs (treats of ice cream or popcorn are distributed at intermission). The play itself is something of a groaner, but the OCC cast applies enough showmanship to keep it entertaining. Youngsters can cheer the hero (Todd Kulczyk), hiss the villain (Van Mcsser:.chmitt), sigh with the heroine (Heather dlMichellc) and even whistle at the salon hostess (Kristina Ann Leach) as they ply the ancient art of pre~entational theater. Supporting players Anna Fitzwater as a traveling schoolmarm and Peter J. Balgoycn as the villain's wimpy hcncbma'n inject some nice physical humor into the piece. Fitzwater and David Scaglione double as hosts or the prc·show entertainmen t, while cast members contribute to the intermission blackouts and Rose Washington supplies melodic accompaniment on the ptano.

As both the tortured, enslaved Marley and the eerie shadow of the future, o'on Took relishes his yearly assignment. This year Took has changed Marley slightly, showing more of his inner torment rather-th'an his outward anger, giving us a deeper look into the man whom Scrooge emulated in business, but must turn from for life. Richard Doyle is always a joy as the Spirit of Christmas Past, a wigged and powdered phantom who reminds Scrooge or the innoc~ncc of childhood, the kindness of his sister and the pain of lost love. Doyle is especially skillful in his cynical moments, when he forces Scrooge to defend his loved ones against the Spirit's sarcastic descriptions of them, descriptions Scrooge himself may have given of others not so close to him. . In his second year as the jovial spi rit or Christmas Present, Ron Boussom is more drunkenly giddy than carelessly jollr. This spirit hiccups and giggles his way through his night with Scrooge, but Boussom is able to keep pace with the character's rapid personality change, and his eventual somber demeanor and disturbing prophecies arc well realized by Boussom's capable hands. John Ellington, the only other actor who has n~vcr altered roles, gives the character or Bob Cratchit appropriate amounts of depth, humor and pathos. Howard Shangraw, who has never missed a season, reprises his role of Scrooge's nephew, Fred, with a holiday cheer which rivals that of a retail store owner. Art Koustik is unparalleled in his portrayal of Scr09gc's jolly master, Mr: Fezziwig. Sharon Omi is a welcome new face as Mrs. Cratchit. The supporting casts corlsists...ol many new faces, no weak link among them. The ensemble of ·' children in th is year's show arc especially strong. . Director John·David Keller has made a few changes this year, as always. Most or them work fine, but a few just don't make it. Keller has added loud orchestrated music before each act an d during transitions, a new and welcome touch. But synthesized music during the dance sequences, especially an electronic drum beat to the dance at Mr. Fezziwig's party, takes credibility from the show.

Some recipes that are baked in ALL PYRIX BAKIWA_llU the cwen ask you to grease the pan before you use it so that the food will not stick.. To do this, put about a teaspoon or shortening on wax paper or a paper towel and rub it on the bottom and sides of you pan. You can also use a vegetable cooking spray.

This prevents them from being knocked over if someone walks by. • Always have a potholder nearby when you are cooking on top of the stove or baking in lhe oven. • Before taking a pan out of the oven, be sure to pull the oven rack all the w~ out. Doing it this way helps to prevent burns. • Be sure to turn ore the stove or any appliance after you have finished using it. • When you use an appliance, BEEF ··RUMP ROAST NIWYORK lftAK OR aonoM ROUND ROAST, BONELESS '.for Jffustration O"'J -. •.

The story that Chrlstianify tells claims to give more than just a clue; it claims to give no less than the very meaning of life· itself, and not just of some lives but of all our lives!. The Christian claim is that our story gives the meaning of God's life among humankind; this extraordinary tale tells of the love between GOO and human beings. • Ours Is the age-old vision ... which has never existed anywhere in history and exists nowhere today ... except in our hopes. This vision is so vast that even the whole Bible can only hint at it. · As we wait for the story to. begin, we already know its end, yet we yearn to know again and wish we did not know; it is the story whose meaning Is our meanlng ... as we wait for the child to be bom. And we know that it will be no ordinary birth, but a virgin birth, because the birth of righteousness and justice in this stern wor1d is always a virgin birth. It is never human beings ... not the nations of humankind, not all of our power and wisdom that brings it forth, but always God. God is here; God is coming. ·0ur Father who art In heaven."
