Costa Mesa renegotiates golf cart lease With Mesa Verde • CoWlcil members agree 3-2 to let course operators off the hook from previous contract, costing city $7,500. By Susan Deemer, Daily Pilot COSTA MESA -For the past five years, operators of the Costa Mesa Golf and Country Club have neglected t.() pay their full share of revenues generated by renting pull carts, a recent audit conducted by the city shows. " According to the city's 1992 contract with Mesa Verde Part- ners, which establishes fees for electric and manual golf carts among . other items, operator& were supposed to pay the city 30% .of its revenues for pull cart rentals, when in fact they only paid 6% -an estimated loss to the city ot about $7,500 a year .. · The partnership disputed the fe.e and asked the city to amend the contract to require only a 6% fee. The city makes about $1 .4 million annually from its lease agreement with the golf course.

Lewis Foundation reconciles . the spiritµal, sec~ar sides of life . ·1 n this world of live and let live, we have accepted behavior that is often hypo- critical U not utterly duplicitous in terms of adherence to values set forth by Judeo-Cbristian ethics. Moral standards based on bibllcal teaching of right and. wrong that have guided western civilizati,on for more than 5,000 years are frequently given major lip service. Why? Simple. Many people live hypocritical lives. Manipulation has become an art form of sur- vival. Go to church on Sunday. Engage in adultery on.Monday. Rush your children to Bible School on Wednesday. Rush back to work and lie to your client in order to finalize a deal that will make the difference on paying the mortgQge this month. Rationalization of behavior is stan,dard-issue morality. Perhaps it has always been thus. We are just living in times when it is all too evident. It goes part and par- cel with doing whatever is neces- sary t~ exist. Western religious philosophy relating to the for- b.w. cook giveness of wrong-doing teaches us that any action can be forgiv- en by the Almighty God. Howev- er, a religious man must ask, does God forgive those who do not seek forgi"Veness from his fel-• low man? Forgiveness based on repentance and change and restitution to the one whom he has wronged? ls it proper to sin, seek forgiveness in a house of worship, then tum around and sin again, claiming the factor of a Early.Years Toys •Developmental toy!> for children birth to 10 years. ,. mortal sin as a crutch, as yet another form of rationalization? This ethical slide is a bot topic of conversation today. Debates rage on, not only from the pulpit, but in classrooms, boa.rdtooms and living rooms. This iS gOod. Some are ta.king more serious steps to rediscover the balance pf spiritual thinJdng in a radically changing secular world, all too often blind to the religious foun- datiol)S upon which this world is. in fact presently based. One such organization is known as the C.S. Lewis Foun- dation. Based on the work and teach- ings of C.S. Lewis, a writer, Christian philosopher and profes- sor who built his reputation at Oxford University, England, on a view that asserted the need to fully integrate one's spiritual commitment wf'thin one's secular life, the C.S. Lewis Foundation seeks to renew this message · today. Lewis, a devoted Christ- ian, who was in residence at Oxford during the early part of the century, believed that. there was no way to remove the teach- ings of God from secular ill~. Rather,-in order to find t:nfe ful- fillment in secular life, religious imperatives are vital. These are issues that contemporary society has great difficulty grasping. And with good reason. • SEE COOK PAGE A6 r------------., 1 I I •• I I I I I T lt E Bod ....._Fai 9,7 SAT f ,6 1'1111 Bod BuUTY Supply & S•loN I I I I I •• I J6t E. 17"9 Sr ..

Two thousand years ago, such a revolution of spirit was brought forth into the world based on the teachings of Jesus Christ. Many would argue, both Christian and non Christian scholars alike, that those teach- ings based on a pure love of God and mankind as well are far, far from the practice.µ Jesus were to return to Earth and visit Costa Mesa today, he would find very few men to count among his flock. And, the first places he would look to find holy men would not be churches and cathedrals built to honor him. Based on his teaching, it is IMPORT more likely that he wQU.ld be found ln shelters for battered women and children, clinics car- ing for the victims of AIDS, county ward.a for juvenile off enders, and homeless motels on Newport Boulevard. Jesus would be knocking on the doors of corporations pollut- ing the water and air for profit. He would be fighting immigra- tion laws set in place restricting the freedom of the poor on ~' earth. No, this does not . that Jesus would have to e a Democrat. It simply .means that his mes- sage, clearly revealed and deliv- ered, is that God loves all, sin- ner and saint. The holy man, the follower of God's will, be he Jew or gentile, Muslim or Buddhist, or atheist, is a man of truth, jus- tice, honor, integrity, fairness, and most of all lQve. A pe~on who gives freely and generously of his ability not only to main- tain and support his own life, but to improve the lives of oth- ers around him. This is a holy man. The C.S. Lewis Foundation, through adherence to its belief li'n Christian doctrine seeks to change the world by sending the message that people can no longer be hypocrites. They can- not live by doing one thing and saying another. They can not separate the ethical and spiritual part of themselves from their DOMESTIC .. /.751M ......... ...

And, perhaps most impor- tantly, they cannot reach a point in life that is totally fulfilling without incorporating their • Christian values in all aspects of their lives. The real litmus test is whether a man can achieve this goal without hate and prejudice leveled toward those who are different. Those who do not fol- low, those who are not the same color, or social standing, or polit- ical bent. The C.S. Lewis Foundation, now 10 years old, run by Stan Mattson, founding president, and past director for corporate and foundation refations at The ' University of Redlands, will bring the Christian message of C.S. Lewis to NeWJ?Ort Beach. On Saturday, Oct. is, at the Hyatt Newport Beach, Douglas Gresham, stepson of C.S. Lewis, I Christian radio host Warren Duffy, and Mattson will join locals for a centenary celebra- tion of the "life and the legacy" of C.S.Lewis. ,, Mattson wants people to "live the legacy." His worldwide sym- posiums are intent on reaching individuals with St. Paul's words to, "walk worthy of the vocation to which you are called." Such worthiness is found in honesty and sell-sacrifice, all in short supply. For more information on C.S. Lewis, the foundation led by Mattson, its programs that are ongoing both here and abroad, and the upcoming dinner and fund-raiser to be held ill New- port Beach this coming October, contact the C.S.

I I I I I I .1 I I I I ' --~t ! W by the obsession with the Brown Act? That question res- onates in the places where our elected officials do business -and, we should lffiagine, in the offices where their attorneys pore over law books. What, pray tell, is the Daily Pilors long- running hangup with the Broym Act? . The local water board goes behind closed doors, where it agrees to hire a public relations firm. The school board goes into closed session to discuss the ins and outs of selling a key piece of real estate. The same school board invites a member of the public to -yep, step right this way behind these closed doors -share his comments with them in pri- vate. Such are some recent examples of closed meetings where the Daily Pilot has reported that, according to the state's reigning experts~ the public business is wrongly being done in secret. The Brown Act is the state law that stipulates when and where and why elected politicians can do business behind closed doors. The overriding premise of the Brown Act is that govern- ment bodies -except in the rarest of occasions -should do their business in public. . The law was rewritten recently, strengthened. Many of tl\e l<?oJ>holes that seasoned politicians used as a vehicle to slide behind closed doors were closed. The district attorney was given the authority -obligation, actually -to prosecute off enders. But the truth of the matter is the task of making sure elected bodies -city councilS, school boards, water boards - comply with the Brown Act is left up to the public and the press. , It's a lonely battle at times. The reac- tion by government leaders when a newspaper points out what appears to be a Brown Act violation is sometimes a snicker, sometimes a defensive ~xplana tion from an attorney and most often a how-picky-are-you-guys-going-to-get attitude. Tlfe Brown Act is not.a tough law to follow . .And the spirit of the Brown A~ +-, to let the public witness and partihpate in the governmental process -is even clearer. That it is routinely violated -the very authors of the Brown Act, for instance, are in agreement that the Newport-Mesa Unified School District and the Mesa Consolidated Water District have recent- ly violated the law -is clear. That these same bodies make mock- ery when the alleged violations are pointed out is sad. That our local leaders still try to work around the Brown Act on occasion is shameful. If we've made a mistake in our some- times aggressive regulation of the Brown Act, it's that we haven't praised those who have made a diligent and genuine effort to follow the law. The Newport Beach City. Council, for instance, receives excellent, clear direction on the open meeting law. Same.for the Costa Mesa City Council. Obsessed with the Brown Act? Guilty. We're obsessed with the Brown Act because it is the law. We're obsessed with the Brown Act because it is basic to our form of government. We're obsessed with the Brown Act because it is our job to police it.

Plans for Crystal Cove ·are.t.oo exorbitant .. THE ISSUE: State parks officials recently announced plans to refurbish cottages at the picturesque site and rent them out to the public. I see the Crystal Cove develop-· m~t issue is once again rais- ing its ugly head. I wonder how the public feels about the state essentially running a resort designed to make a proqt? ls not the business of government to govern for the public benefit. Government is not supposed to be a profit-making enterprise. however, I read that under the terms of the agreement, the state will earn about $1 million a year profit from the developer. Is this money going to be used specifically for the development of Crystal Cove and to the benefit of Orange County and Newport Beach residents? No. I imagine it will most likely go into a state general fund to be wasted else- where without benefit to Orange County's residents. If Crystal Cove lS a publically owned facility for the use of the general public please tell me bow the average person is going to be able to afford up to $400 per night to stay there? The only people who will e njoy the right to spend -the night there will be the mon- eyed elite and wealthy foteign visitors. The whole thing looks to me like one more giant rip-off of the citizens. Crystal Cove is a gem and should be available to all the resi- dents of Orange County at afford-' able prices. ( While the residents o'f Crys~ Cove have cert.ain!y enjoyed a special place for many years - perhaps at some publlc expense, the new plan will continue to deny the rest of us any opportuni- ty to enjoy the fadlity by pricing it way beyond the reach of the com- mon person. Perhaps instead of paying the state $1 million a year for some bureaucrat to waste -the rates could be reduced to an affordable level -or the money could be used for a special tund to assist low-and moderate-incoll}e fami- lies to stay at the cove at red\lced rates. ROBERT WALCIW Corona del Mar DON LEACH I DAILY Pit.OT A sculptor works on a piece of art In front of her beachfront sha- d.lo at Crystal Cove underneath a. homemade sign. The state of California has for 15 years owned the 3,300-acre park, which encompasses the Crystal Cove community. In that time the state has presented numerous plans to develop the 12-aae cottage -area, which is a National Historic Site. Its historic value comes from the fact that it is th~ last remain- ing example of a pre-World War II beach community. · Here are the plans that I am aware of -(Check your files for more)- • The present plan is to refur- bish the existing cottages and increase number to 90 and charge between $100 to $400 per night to the public to rent out community comm~ntary Remembering a shining gem th(lt has Jaded away By Michael Glueck the spaces. • The development would be a public/private venture that no one seems to be able to pencil a profit out of. I guess what I fail to under- stand is: At present the state has an 'annual income of more than $500,000 from the existing cot- tage residents at NO additional expense to the taxpayer. If the current venture is adopted we the public lose: • Use of the beach for three to four years during construction. • The historic fiber of Crystal Cove~ With double the number of existing cottages -three swimming pools and a 5,000- square-foot restaurant. • The state's profit is 5% of any income. • This is. a gamble with our' money; the state parks depart- ment should think carefully about destroying a historic trea- sure such as Crystal Cove. At a public meeting a park department representative claimed the private use of public land (renting the cottages back to the people who have owned them for generations) was unac- ceptable to the Department. Many government agencies have successful programs wheJe this is exactly the case. · During the l"1e$t bidding process, the residents of Crystal Cove presented a plan to the state (paid for by the residents) to convert the historic d.i.ltQct' into a ·west Coast WUUaIQl- burg. • If I understand the plan, as in Williamsburg Va., there would be a mix of private homes, perk display houses, and restaunumi conveniences that wo\fld maia- tain the took and feel of tile Crystal Cove historic district. Park officials did not even consider the · plan as they claimed their plan was a bettllr use of the land. I do not know .U the details of the ·wllllam.sbuig· Plan,• but it sure has worked tn Virginia. _ This Crystal Cove resident,' ·plan would serve a broad publk: via an historic site with tree attendance, at the same time doirig it at no cost to the taxpay- er, not losing a day of inCOlqlt, and no loss of the public beedt. The bonus is the ·villa.-· would remain the same for all time. Ask an artist like myself it this is important! JOYCE PAI.MD Corona del Mar . ..INTERNET ~ CONTINUED FROM A 1 .. ,.

MAR HIGH SEA KINGS That's the No. 1 priority for Coach Dick Free~an·s Sea Kings, who will air it out in the upcoming high schoql football season in attempt to surpass last fall's 5-5 finish. By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot ORONA DEL MAR -Corona del Mar High football coach ~Dick Freeman has seen the enemy and it isn't one of the 10 teams on the Sea Kings' schedule. Instead, the Sea Kings have targeted . attrition as their leading concern for the 1997 season. Already handicapped by Orange County's second.-lowest enrollment among public high schools, the Sea Kings have experienced increasing difficulty keeping their players in the program for four years. Graduation, the bane of any prep, coach's existence, claimed all but 13 rushing yards and 59 passing yards from last season's 5-5 squad. But exPected . returners who started a combined 36 games in '96, including one two!'Way standout, won't be in uniform this fall. . The reasons for Brower these departures range from inciel!Sed commitment to another sport to just plain lack of commitment. And while Freeman can't do much r abo~ upperclassmen who simply lose interest, he does plan tq field a sophomore-team this year, eschewing the traditional juo.ior varsity, which . olten damages the psyche, physique, a,nd development of sophomores eventually expected to contribute under Friday night lights. Though there are 21 sophomores (edgiilg 15 juniors and only 14 seniors) on the varsity roster, most of last year's fresh.men will practice by themselves, play their own schedule and watch the varsity from the stands. "We ~ad been losing a lot of people coming up from the fresl:imen team, who were getting beat up on the varsity' and .diQ.n't like it,• Freeman said. "(Keeping sophomores down) may hurt our varsity nwnberS, but we're going to have to bite the bullet, at least this year. Some sophomores could still help us out on the varsity, but we had to do something, because our attrition is horrible."

(No need to mention scores.) Q While the Senior Classic is • expected to become one of the most successful tournaments on the Senior Tour, the Newport Classic has been wiceremoniously scrapped. It could use a fitting entombment. Bing Crosby, the late Hollyw<;>od star, had a vision in the early 19?0s to expand his famous Pebble Beach Clambake Pro-Am and create a satellite event for professionals who didn't make the cut at the tournament known today as the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am. One of the guests in our foursome that day at Mesa Verde had a tough putt on No. 2, when his ball rolled to the edge pf the green, landing square against a two-inch high lip. ·we bave a local rule here,• Sargent explained. ·vou can go ahead and move your ball away from that ridge and up to the (elevated) grass." to play on the Senior Tour.

Admission was free at Newport Beach Country Club, where fans could gallery for two days in late January, eat free tacos and watch tomorrow's stars. it would someday grow up to become the biggest mini-tour event in Southern California with a $100,000 purse. Tom Lehman. the PGA Tour's Player of the Year last year, played in the Newport Classic while climbing the ladder, the last time in 1991. Later, an SCPGA colleague of Sargent's launched his tee shot into a lake after a long roll. You couldn't tell it was wet until cµrivtng there. The course is being developed by Doug DeCinces, a Corona del Mar resident and-former third baseman for the Angels and Orioles.

CdM's 'Air' Kings will bombard oeponents with the pass, while H,atfield and Brower key defense's bid for improveme' By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot CORONA DEL MAR -When your head coach, not to mention your tight end, are bigger in stature than any member of your projected offensive line, smashmouth beco1;0es a four-letter word. So it is this fall for the Corona del Mar High football team, which only two seasons 4QO rushed behind the sizable backsides of the vaunted Five CroWJ;lS offensive line to · within a yard of the CIF Southern Section DWision V cbampiomhip game. ' The Sea Kings, however, picked up more than 70% of their 2,594 offensive yards through the air last fall, and it could be an even higher percentage this season, d,espite the ·graduation of record- setting quarterback Mike McClellan and receiver George Sumner. Senior Ryan Cooper (2? catches for 400 yards and two touchdowns in 1996) will lead what Freeman Alshuler believes is a deep and talented receiving corps, which includes 6-foot-6, 235-pound returning tight end nm Thurman (11 catch~s for 98 yards and two IDs). Junior Dennis Alshuler, a 6-4 pocket passer, and 5-10 senior Nick Hood, whose mobility is his strength, could share time at quarterback, where both will hand off only grudgingly, acccirding to Coach Dick Freeman. Among the 21 lettermen back are seven who started on defense and three on offense. Bot several newcomers could see action on both sides of the ball, as some returners could occupy different roles than they did laSt fall. Here's a position-by-position breakdown: ' HIGH SCHOOii FOOTBALL · N on the sophomore team, will provide depth, while junior Seth Richardson is another option as a back-up. Runn.tng back -Juniors Nate Lemmennan and Craig Levine are the front-runner for the single back position, where graduated Tom O'Meara rushed for 2,228 yards and 25 touchdowns the last two seasons. Lemmerman (5-10, 170) -------. • missed all of '96 with a torn ACL, but his quick- ness has not suffered through the reconstructive surgery. Levine (5-10, 175) is more of a power run- ner, according to Freeman. He carried just once last fall, losing one yard. Both will be asked to Hood catch the ball out of the backfield. Ryan Acbterberg, the starter at king back (slot) last year, might have been the featured ball carrier, but decided to concentrate on baseball. Sophomores Grant Estabrook and Ned Algeo are others who could contribute here. Recetven -Cooper is a proven commodity and along with Thurman is a returning two-way starter. He figures to double up once again at comerback, but he'll earn most of his headlines as the Sea Kings' possession receiver. He caught at least one pass in all 10 games as a junior. Freeman also expects big things from senior Mike Pinn, who .h~ the speed to stretch secondaries Freeman said the king back, included in the running game last fall, will be used almost exclusively as a receiver this season. Senior T.J. Hildebrandt is the likE!ly starter here. Fleet-footed Huntington Beach High transfer Mychael Henry, who came off the bench for the Oilers last season, has also earned praise from Freeman, who said Henry will figure into the receiver rotation. Among others likely to benefit from the cascade of passes emanating from the CdM pocket will be Hunter MacDonald, Bthan Austin, Evan Hurd and Blake Bentley. Tight end • Thtlrman, who along with Cooper ate the two returning cwo-way starters, provides a formidable target, and can puntsb smaller defensive backs after the catch. His blocking skills will also come in bandy.

Junior Steve Witt (6-1, 232) is expected to man the other tackle spot, while junior Alex BottQJll (6-5, 215) is the front-runner at center, according to Freeman. Junior Brett Wiseman (5-9, 175), who overcorµes his lack of size with toughness, could also emerge at guard, freeing up Brower or Sumner to concentrate on defense. "He's amazingly strong, too," Freeman said of Wiseman, who could also play some center. Sophomores Elliott Patterson (6 -2, 243), Sean Fenton (6-3, 227) and Zack Wald (6-3, 285) provide promise and depth ~t tackle. "If we get into the playoffs, the sophomores will probably be seeing a lot of action by then," Freeman said. Kicking game -Sophomore Bubb Rader kicked six varsity PA.J's as a freshman, when injuries cleared a pafh to the varsity, will return to handle place-ki~g duties, according to Freeman. Punting was still a question mark and Freeman will hope to find a more effective long snapper, an area that led to problems last fall. Cooper and Heruy ate among those at the · top of Freeman's list to return kicks, a skill George Sumner provided last fall. Defensive line -Brower will be •a strong point," according to Freeman, who plans to utilize him at noseguard. Though Hood was an all-leaguer at end, his defensive status is clouded Levine by his quarterbacking responsibilities. Freeman will likely ask Shea to go both ways, but was undecided whether be could best be utilized at end or tackle. Sumner, Wiseman, Patterson and Fenton are additional potential contributors up front, but Freeman said be may even enlist members of the secondary to add the type of quickness at end that O'Meara (12 sacks) and Hood provided in '96. lJnebacken -A bigger ~6-2, 215), stronger (cleans a team-high 270 pounds) and more mature Mark Hatfield is the ill-humored leader of a defense bent on improving upon a school-record 290 point.Sallowed.

Rancho Alamitos: CONTINUED FROM 81 George Sumner, then showed off Offensive Coordinator Lyle Lansd.ell's aerial attack by con- necting six times for 156 yards and five touchdowns in a 54-0 trouncing of Garden Grove. The McClellan-Sumner col- laboration was a season-long theme, as the two combined to rewrite much of the school's passing and receiving records. Meanwhile senior Tom O'Meara, who scored 20 touch- downs as a junior tailback., behind the vaunted Five Crown line, added defensive heroics to his scrapbook. O'Meara, now at the Univer- sity of San Diego, rushed for 804 yards and earned· 237 more on 28 receptions, but sacked oppos- ing quarterbacks 12 times from his defensive eb.d spot. Sumner finished with school records for single-season and career receptions (47 and 66) receiving yards {854 and 1,214) and m catches flO and 11), and earned a South roster spot for the Orange County All-Star Game. He also earned a colle- giate future at Georgetown. McClellan, now vying to quarterback the Yale Bulldogs, completed 123 of 273 for 1,748 yards and 14 TDs. His comple- tions, yards and TD tosses were all single-season CdM records. The aforementioned. trio earned first-team All-Sea View League laui"els for the 5-5 squad, and joined sophomore middle linebacker Mark Hatfield on the All-Newport-Mesa District team. Hatfield was a second-teaih all-league choice, as were Matt Peny, TYier Brower and Nick Hood. HIGH I COU TJlY PJlBVIBW . SIX RETURNE·R .. S LEAD TARS Newport Harbo~ boys " cross coµ.ntry.,f<IIlked second in CIF Division m ·preseasmi poll, enter with great expectations.. NEWPORT BEACH -U Notre Dame football had the Pour Horsemen, Newport Harbor High has the SiX. Shooters. Though the Sallw:s' boys cross country team will never be mis- taken for Knute Rockne's Fight- ing Irish, its arsenal js loaded for the 1997 season as six of Coach Bim Barry's runners return. Depth, speed and experience should upgrade Newport Harbor into the elite in ClF Southern Sec- tion Division ID circles this season. "Some people have told me that we should be as high as No. 3 in Orange County, -Barry said. The Sailors .. ranked second in the Division ID preseason poll behind Dao Bosco, wW be led by seniol' co-captains Claudio Cortes and Ryan Jensen, jWliors Steve Jensen, Curt Herberts and.Adam AntonJnJ., and senior Matt Mcki- naly. . Cortes was hampered. by hip injuries last year after posting a 16:10 at the Woodbridge ,Invita- tional, then recovered in time fot the spring track and field season and· placed s~ Lri the 3,200 meters in the Sea View League Pinal.S' at Irvine High. Ryan Jensen, sixth in the league track finals in the 800 last spring and slated as a possible No. 2 runner this autumn, will be pushed hard by Herberts (fourth in the 3,200 league finals, fifth in the 1,600) and Steve Jensen (sec- ond in the 800, fourth in the 1,600). Antonini and Mckinaly could also go through the chUte second or third for Newport. ·w e ha"9e lots of depth,· Barry said. ·oepending on who we ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' ' L-------------------------compete against, we don't need everybody 100% (healthy) every week. but as the year progresses v.:e're going to need ev~~y running on all eight cpmorrs. Our depth is strong bechuse we have six high quality nmners." Mckinaly's physical condition is in question, Barry said, because he's been living in Colorado since the spring semester with his mother and only recently returned. ·(Mc.kinaly} ·might be a late starter, but he was very solid for • ua la.st year and we anticipate him being tl),e same as last year,• Bar- ry said • Newport Harbor, fifth in CIP Division m last year and probobly the county leader in brot.beJ:: com,. binations, will let sophomores Hugo Cortes and Chris Landgren battle it out for tile seventh spot. Landgren, though, might be a year away from cracking the top seven , Barry Sa.id. Herberts was Newport's top runner most or last season, indud- ing ,an individual tiUe in the sophomore division at the Laguna Hills Invitational. Antonini is the team's most improved runner, Barry said. Claudio Cortes, a four-year let· tennan who established his per- sonal best as a sop'homore, enjoyed a ~quality summer in workouts. Tue Sailors start their seasqn or high expectations Sept. 13 at the Laguna Hills Invitational. \C>I 111 'Cl((li!
