I'd classify this as a miracle.' Five months after . being hit by a car that almost killed her, Sara Hougard is slowly adapting to a new life without part of her leg S ara Hougard wakes up every rnorrung . and copes with the fdct that a piece of her is missing. There are no alarm clocks sig- naling the rush to get to work anymore, no opportunities to skate along the boardwalk. "" Every morning when her eyes open, she stares at a stucco ceil- ing. She sees the same faces reg- ularly flash in her line of vision- her mother, her boyfnend, a team of nurses. Her life has turned into a mundane routine. Her life has been reduced to lymg in a hospi- tal bed. · The 21-year-old Costa Mesa resident -once vibrant and active . -ha~ been virtually immobile since a Sept. 20, t 998, car acodent. She wears a metal halo that holds her head in place and a black brace to allow her broken leg to mend. It's her other leg that c.auses an abnormal pain. Hougard feels her foot and toes, but they aren't there. It took several months before she could peer down and see her left leg. The remains are a knee and a thigti, a fleshy stump that · was hideous to Hougard when she awoke from a sedated haze.

These performances are des19ned to keep' the interest of kids. The pieces are short, and conductor Elizabeth Stoyanovtch introduces each one with a kid-sized story. Before and after the two perfor- mances, children can visit with mus1oans and dancers or look at the instruments and learn more about what they will be hearing.

Earlier this month, the Supeli- 1 or <:ourt ruled that ariy noise restrictions at the amphitheater ' were unenforceable and se<.'ondJy that the defendants -Jn this case Brown and Lusk-had to pay the fair's legal fees. ·1\vo days ago I gave my clients the bad· news,• Richard Spix said. "The fair board is suing to get out of the sound restric- tions. These people have modest homes in Mesa del Mar. They're 1 retired and elderly, tryihg to enjoy their retirement.• Spix said the board is •double dipping,• since he claims that $6 million of the reported $16 million settlement was for legal fees. • 1 t is as if Lazarus' family sued : for his wrongful death and ; rece)ved full compensation for their losses, then demanding that ' he rise again,• Spix said in a ' press release. , His clients, he said, have also been assessing the possibility of appealing the judge's decision to lift the 92-decibel sound restric- tion on the amphitheater. While Spix srud the move is an ef(ort lo mtimidate the two women from pursuing an appeal against, fair board attomeys srud their intent is to stop what they call frivolous lawsuits by Spix. •He has made a career of drwru:n.ing up litigation against the fair and amphitheater,• said Tom Malcobn, an attorney for the fair board. "He continues to improperly imply that the fair is bringing heavy· metal to the the- ater when in truth the fair board will not do so and has not yet determined if it will reopen the facility.• Calling Spix's allegations an "irresponsible spreading of mis- infonnation," Malcolin said the reported $16 millio!l settlement · did not mclude any legal fees. "We had to file a cost bill."' Malcolm said. "HopefUuy our cost bill will discourage Spix. We hope be will see that we will not be pushed around and we won't be bullied in the press." When asked if the fair really intended to collect the $4.4 mil- lion from the two women, Mal- colm said, •we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.• After the court ruled that the defendants had to pay the legal fees, the fair board submitted its bill of $4.4 million, said fair Gen- eral Manager Becky Bailey-Find· ley. HI think it's sad that theU' attor- i\ey didn't warn them about this,• sbe said.

The upcoming 20th anniversary Symphony of Jewels Ball will be celebrated at the very location where our hopes apd dreilms will someday come true " Qualls was refernng to the land adjacent to the Orange County Performing Arts Center recently donated by the Segerstrom family as the site of the proposed new bwld.lngs that will be part of The Center's expansion.

Absolutely wonderful,• shared John Forsyte. executive director of the sympho- ny. Fotsyte, a talented and afJa. ble young man who replaced Lou Spisto, admitted to being a little skeptical when Qualls and Lesk announced their ambitious plan. "After all, the most money rcµsed at preVIous symphony balls was in the $250,000 range," he said. •And $250,000 JS a great deal of money and a most respectable target. •Raising a million will open many new doors for PSO, • said Forsyte, thanking the dinner crowd for thel.f generous support. "Tt's ambitious. However, we will accomplish this goal,# Lesk ~d. •Perhaps we can boldly state that we wiU even surpass it. The reason is quite simple ...

The impressive finandal goal was made possible by an initial gilt of underwriting in the amount of $125,000 from the Segerstrom Foundation and South Coast Plaza. ·we had dinner in this very room last year with Henry and Renee Segerstrom to share our vision concerning t,he vital impor- tance of raismg major dollars to make a dilierence for PSO, • Qualls said. •The Segerstrom fam.i.ly continues to support this vision and has made our effort possible with their most extraor· dinary commitment A gift at this level is a ringing endorsement for the mission of the Pacilic Sym- phony Orchestra to become a nationally acclaimed ensemble.• ln the crowd were Nella Web- ster of US Th.1st Company; the chamung Nancy Scb.llllng, new PSO Dllector of Development recently transplanted from Tampa.

The people who howed up Fnday preferred to swmg. which was popular in the '30s and • 40s but has made a tremendous comeback in recent years. In fact, much of the swing music played at the dance was recorded within the last few years, Kmghl said. "There are so many swing clubs around Orange County, at least four nights a week, if you wanted to, you can dance." said Boyd Martin. 47, of Corona del Mar, who danced better than most with his wife, Jeanne. Martin said he sees young- sters at dubs wearing Zoot suits and World War II uniforms. "If you didn't know better, you'd think you dropped mto a 1940s time frame,• he said "It's the damnedest thing you've ever seen.• The baby boomers missed • out, Martin saJd, because by the time they came of age, swmg •Being connected to a part- ner was over and gone by the '60l!i, • he said. •A whole gener- ation missed the concept of dtmcing with a partner as opposed to dancing next to somebody." Not everyone at the party danced as well as Martin, "I just get frustrated because J can't dance," said Gerrit Slingerland, 41, of Santa Ana.

She knew bet- ter than to drink and drive, run- rung the chance of injuring her- seU and possibly others. She asked for a ride home and a fel- low employee promised she would pick up Hougard the next morning for an edrly shift. Monica Mjyata, 24, thought l lougard would be waiting on the comer of Victona and Canyon Dnvc, but she didn't sec hc.r. She figured if Hougard wasn't there. she would call her from work. Miyata was headmg toward the Costa Mesa Freeway when she spotted Hougard sitting on a grassy lawn. She tried to change lanes. Miyata didn't see the Ford Taurus in her ulind spot. Lloyd Gorman veered right to avoid hitting Miyata as she inched over into his lane. He locked his brakes and spilled cof- fee onto his windshield. The bright green lines marked by police at the accident scene are still tattooed on the street more than five months later. Tor- res estimates Gorman's car was traveling about 35 mph when it jumped the curb and hit Hougard. The unpact threw her about 30 feet. I !ougard's left lt?g was sheared off several inches below her knee. A passing bicyclist, who knew emergency techniques, u. ed her sock as a towniquet to stop the bleeding.

Ti e annual Junior High chool girls volleyball champ1onsh.lps were held last week at Ensign Juruor HJ.gh. Seeding was based on five weeks of match play and provides an evenly matched and tremendously exoting event, wh.lch IS always well-attended by parents and fnends The eight-grade tournament featured an undefeated Ensign team as the No. 1 seed. After defeating a Harbor Day team led by Whitney George m the semifinals, Ensign met Dwyer, wh.lch had defeated Corona del Mar in the other semifincil m three exciting games. Setter Katelyn C1arelli, daughter of fonner Newport Harbor track and football coach Tony Ciarelli, led Dwyer. Ensign's team captain and setter, Amy Burlingham, provided leadersh.lp as well as great court seflSe for EflSign as the SeaBees swept the final in • r two games. Middle blocker Llndsey Woller provided the power with key spilces and blocks. Coach Bebe Folsom also praised outside hitter Cheryl Dobson for her all-around play.

Coach Folsom also pra1Sed the work of dssistant cOdch Joe Sloate, who IS a noted volleyball referee m the JUruor club orcwt. The seventh-grade charnpionshlp was extremely evenly matched. Harbor Day won the league championship with a flawless 5-0 record, while the remauung hve teams all entered the tournament with the same record of two WUl.S and three losses. The tournament was as evenly contested with every match extendlng to three games except the closely played final. H arbor Day, led by Emily 1\.lrner, Roxane •Red• Duka, Cristen Clapp and Lauren Snell, lost a heartbreaking three-gamer to Dwyer by scores of 17-15, 11-15, 16-14 in the semifinals. Coach Pam Coleman, who doubles as tournament director, felt that the tournament experience will be greatly benefidaJ to her team as it looks forward to next year's eighth- grade to~ament. The Corona del Mar 5eventh· grade team, coached by Orange Coast College volleyball coach Chuck Cutenese, defeated Costa Mesa in a close three-game match to meet Dwyer in the finals. Dwyer defeated CdM by the scores of 16-14 and 15-7. Setters Ashley Bill aJVi Brittany Prtce led the "See Weed: team With Brook Burgner and Michelle McD41\iels exhibiting strong all-around 5upport.

Newport Beach/Costa Mesa Doily Pilot , Few people would ever be able to emotionally recover . from the type of accident l\llatt Newton had in 1997, Friday, he played baseball tor SCC. Matt Newton pla}'ed baseball for Southern California College Friday. TI those who have yet to meet r;s~wton, a seruor at sec, or don't know his story, the above stdtement doesn't mean much. B~t to tho c who do, the fact Newton is alive at all is a miracle m and of 1tseU . I~ all started on Nov, 16, 1997. Newton, who bdtted' .320 Wllb 15 doubles and 19 runs as a sophomore m the spring of 1997, was preparing a sermon he planned to gwe at a college miJllstry function, known as Friday Night Life, when he got a call from the California Highway Patrol around 5 p.m. "My roomate couldn't Newton go and I didn't think I could either because of the sermon I was working on,· Newton said. "Sulit was a sermon on obedience and I decided that helping my fric>nd would be a good way to illustrate this .• Newton left his dorm room after 5 and brought along a friend for the ride, Tim Morgan. It would be ~e last thing Newton remembered about that night. According to police reports and what Morgan recalls, the f'Ord Tempo Newton was dnving. was n<'~t ng Edison Field on the 51 Free ~ when it lammed mto a 2 -toot construction trailer which had become disconnected from its parent rig. Tho Tempo was totaled and omehow, Morgan walked away with a few scratches and bruises. Newton wasn't so locky, takihg th<> bnmt of the impact. It took 30 minutes for rescue personnel to pull New- ton from the wreckage and. he had to be hooked up to a respira- tor. Newton was then rushed to nearby UCI Medical Center where doctors stabilized him and did unrnediate surgery to save his left elbow. "My left arm was compound fractured and disdocated with a bone missing," Newton noted m a tcstunony he wrote about the experience. "Three of my vertebrae were 'compression fractured, I lost two pints of blood, 1 had no nose, lost SIX teeth, had massive head trauma,_ had numerous deep facial '. ... / lacerations and my head was swelled up as big as a volleyball.• Alter more surgery on the mght of the acodent, Newton was hnally stable, but was in a COffid. While still in the coma, doctors CiOLLllES went·ahead and performed a 10-hour Jacial surgery where they replaced crushed bone with grafts from his skull. They also used titanium plates, screws and wires for the reconstruction. Newton finally regained consoousness seven days later and so started the long road to recovery, which, at the time, didn't include baseball. But over time, as lhe physical wounds healed, Newton began to wonder if he could play baseball again. ·-~ asked God 11 1t was his will that I play basebalJ again to show me the wdy," Newton said. "Initially, I couldn't throw a ball 10 feet. but over time, as I got stronger, I knew He wanted me to play" "Now, l look forward to 1ust bemg on the held. God gave me the talent and ability to play again and I'm just gomg to sit bQck and enjoy the gift he gave me because I'll never know when lt may end agfiln." • All-time Orange Coast College football tackle leader Chris Clayton ha.s transferred to Western State College ln Gunnison, Colo., former Piiate:; Coach Bill Workman announced.
