Helping the homeless no easy feat in Costa Mesa
• Ministries often find
they are the target of
complaints from residents.
By Susan Deemer, Daily Pilot
COSI'A MESA -They are the
•poorest of the poor," the most
unwanted in society, the oues
who may never find a path that
leads them off the streets.
Although the city's growing
homeless and needy population
can easily find food on weekdays
at chariUes such as the Someone
Cares Soup Kitchen or the Save
Our Selves food pantry, they are
left to. fend for themselves on
weekends.
Since the city told Santa Ana-
based Isaiah n, The Call to Inti-
macy ministry to stop handing out
food to the homeless and needy
on weekends at Uons Park a
week ago, several local nonprofit
agencies were asked to offer their
facilities.
Although the city is also help-
ing the ministry to find a new
location where it can hold its
weekend picnics and offer coun-
seling, this Saturday they may not
have a place to go.

Radio host: Death-to-gays comment Just a question :
•But one spokesman for
Orange County homosexu-
als says Richard Agozino of
KBRT-AM 'crossed the line'
with Aug. 29 broadcast.
By Tim Grenda, Daily Pilot
COSTA MESA -Christian
radio talk show host Richard
Agozinoon1bursdayvehemently
defended the statements he made
on KBRT-AM (740) two weeks
ago, calling for new laws to make
homosexuality a crime punish-
able by death.
lesbians. That crossed the line."
Since the controversial broad-
cast, KBRT station manager Ed
Personius has firmly stood behind
Agozino and his 'station's right to
free speech, calling the frank dis-
cussion of ·homosexuality just a
part of good radio.
He denied that Agozino's show
on homosexuality -which fol-
lowed a similar discussion that
posed the idea of imposing the
death penalty on all adulterers -
was some sort of KBRT publicity
stunt.
"We don't look at this incident
as some sort of public relations
coup,• Personius said. "It's sort of
a disruption, actually."
The station invited LaPointe,
aBd other gays who were upse~
by the comments to an on-air
debate of the issue, but they
refused, Personius said. :
In an interview broadcast•
Thursday live on KBRT, AgozinO:
defended the broadcast th.at ha1.
thrust him and his station into the..
national spotlight. .
"There was not really a mes-'
sage (to the show), it was a ques-:
ti on," Agozino said. •I simpl~
said: should we?" :
Agozino, a pastor with limited:
talk. radio experience who joine<(
KBRJ' a few months ago, said the;
issue of homosexuality is on&
Christians grapple with often and
would p19bably come up on ~
show again. ,
1be Airway Drive radio station
wi~ just 16 employees ignited a
firestorm of criticism on Aug. 29
when Agozino, host of the day-
time call-in show •crosstalk,•
posed a question to his audience:
Should lawmakers adopt legisla-
tion to make homosexuality a
capital offense?
MAAC MAATtl I DALY PILOT
KBRT-AM radio talk show host Rich Agozino poses questtom to
his l.llteners.
Personius said Agozino did not
advocate killing homosexuals on
the show: he merely raised the
question as a topic of discussion.
•This is a talk radio station and
we try to deal with interetting and
provocative topics,• he said. "Or
else you won't be in commercial
talk radio very long."
KBRT, owned by Crawford
Broadcasting Co., ls one in ~
chain of 18 Christian radio sta-
tions the company owns aao~
the country, including affiliates in.
Alabama, Texas and New York. \
The mere suggestion outraged
and frightened the Orange Coun-
ty gay community, which quickly
rallied to condemn Agozino and
his message.
•Tuey talk constantly about
the homosexual agenda and
they've always said we're sinners,
and that's their right to do,• said
BW LaPointe, publisher of •ne
Blade,• a Laguna Beach-based
news magazine for the homosex·
ual community.
•But what really shook us to
the bone was this person who,
quite seriously, espoused using
the death penalty for gays and
Personius said KBRT remains
dedicated to an "open, truthful,
unedited dia)ogue and nothing
else" on the controversial topic
Agozino raised.

trustees voted 5-1 Tuesday to
renew their support of Families
Costa Mesa Collaborative Pro-
ject, a community effort to help
disadvantaged Costa Mesa resi-
dents.
The school district provides
gang and drug counseling, as
well as parenting services as part
of the project.
nustee Ed Decker was absent
for the vote and trustee Wendy
Leece dissented on grounds that
government dollars should not go
toward solving family problems.
"The hearts of those people
involved m this project are in the
right Place, but the fact that the
government uses tax dollars to
hope to solve intimate, family
problems ls creating more gener-
ations dependent on the govern;
ment,• Leece said Wednesday:
"How wonderful it would be for
these groups to join together
without government regula-
tions."

ner Mike Robinson. •we had
things that Deeded improving
a.n.d so we hired an outside, third
party to take an objective look.•
Department staff told consul-
tants they believe the City Coun-
cil and City Manager Allan Roed-
er do not fully grasp the pwpose
and function of the division.
They also said there is inappro-
priate political intetvening and
little or no c:onvena.tton between
the council and staff.
City ·Manager Allan Roeder
acknowledged the problems
emt. However, he-said many of
the lssues are now being
resolved.
And on Monday, during a City
Council study session, about a
dozen employees from the
department introduced them-
selves to officials as a first step
toward better communication.
•The study indicated we
should be having some face-to-
face meetings," Robinson said.
"We are also encouragirig city
planners to go to building staff
meetings.•
The study also suggests
improving customer service by

the study because business bas

in recent

staff scrambling
to ·meet
demand.
In UMM, the
city laid Ott five
employees in
that department
which
equalled about
25% of the staff.
But now, after
several yeon of recession, build-
ing again is on the rise. Officials
even considered re-hiring some
of its former employees, said
Donald Lamm, the city's develop-
ment services director.
•we went to the council to hire
back staff, and the City Council
and city manager said 'fine, but
let's see if we can trim down the
process and make the depart-
ment more efficient,'" Lamm
said.

•James Dawkins shreds Century's
Une for 131 yards and 2 TDs, adds
a )pckoff return for another score
as Estancia shows balanced attack '
with opening nonleague triumph ..
By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot
NEWPORT BEACH --The Estancia
High footbatl team's 35-6 nonleague sea-
son-opening victory Thursday over Centu-
ry featured offense, defense, sped.al teaim
and some healthy postgame perspective
from Eagles Coach John Uebengood.
~We've got a long way to go, because
our league (competition) is better than
this,• said Uebengood, who watched bis
team click on virtually all cylinders against
the Centurions at Newport Harbor High. It
was the third str&lght win for Estancia and
third straight victorious season debut.
Included in the Eagles' solid display was
the as-promised passing attack, which
senior quarterback Justin Wolter triggered
for five completions in 10 attempts, 78
yards, and one picturesque 28-yard touch-
down toss to junior Manu Tanielu .
Senior James Dawkins, the Eagles' lone
All-Pacific Coast League returner, rushed
for 131 yards and two touchdowns on 21
carries and added an 87-yard kickoff
return for a lD, on what be later called one
of his worst games ever.
•1 just wasn't
mentally ready
tonight, and that
can't happen,•
said a cojltrite
Dawkins after-
ward. •The line
did a good job and
our passin·g game
and defense won it
for us tonight. I
give all our other
guys a lot of credit for
playing well tonight.·
Llebengood would
have preferred more efficiency from his
team's ground game (218 yards on 48 car-
ries). But that was all but quibbling with an
effort that should supply plenty of confi-
dence, as well as a foundation to prepare
for the aforementioned PCL grind.
•1t was good to see Justin throw the
football the way he did, and he also did a
good job kicking (perfect on five conver-
SJons), • Liebengood said.
Four of Wolter's completions produced
first downs, including his only hookup to
Ta\1.ielu on a perfectly thrown fade just
inside the right corner of the end zone mid-
way through the third quarter.
The Eagles, who also got 54 rushing
yards from Tanielu and 58 combined rush-
ing and receiving yards from Dominick
Meyers, scored on five of their first 10 pos-
sessions, before killing the dock by down-
ing two snaps at the Century 25. •
A rare miscue set up Century's lone
to1,Jchdown, as the Eagle punter touched
his knee to the turf while fielding the snap
at his own 33 late in the third quarter.
Pour plays later, Century • sophomore
Joel Valdez found Jaime Chavez on a roll-
out pass to thwart what woul(l have been
Estancia's first shutout since a 27-0 verdict
against Century in last year's opener.

senior lineman Mike Briano and senior

inside linebackers Andy Galicia and Ger-
man Diaz, limited the visitors to 59 rushing
yards and only 41 more through the •air.
They also forced three turnovers, including
a Meyers interception and fumble recover-
ies by Steve Wilson and Aaron Dew.
Dew's recovery was set up by a blind-
side quarterback sack by senior John Har-
ris, a 6-foot-3, 318-pound converted water
polo player competing in his first varsity
game.
Junior linebacker Jeff Thompson and
Meyers, corning up from his comerback
spot, each had crushing hits on Century
opponents to round out the dominant
defensive display.
Estancia went 82 yards on 10 plays with
its second possession to open the scoring,
as Dawkins covered the final 27 with 1 :30
left in the first quarter.
After one of several short punts followed
Century's ensuing possession, the Eagles
went 47 yards on seven plays to make it 14-
0 with 1:07 left in the half. The drive's key
play was an 11-yard Wolters pass to Mey-
ers on third-and-six.
Dawkins answered Century's only score
by picking up the ensuing kickoff and out-
rwming all pursuers to paydirt. He then
capped his productive night with his sec-
ond 27-yard scoring scamper with 4:25 left
in the game.
The only downer for the Eagles was an
apparent minor injury to senior two-way
starter John Uebengood Jr.'s left knee.

Steve ConU an~ his Corona del Mar Sea Kings appear to be back for a serious challenge.
THE RETURN OF .. ,
• Could it be the return of Corona del Mar volleyball
to .forefront? CIF Division I preseason poll predicts it.
By Molly Yanity, Daily Piiot
CORONA DEL MAR -
When Steve Conti took over as
the head coach of the boys vol-
leyball team at Corona del Mar,
he inherited a 4-10 team and
turned it around to where the
Sea Kings were within a breath
of the CIF championship in just
a couple seasons.
Last fall, the girls volleyball
team at the Back Bay high
school witnessed its third
straight losing record (6-12).
another miss at the postseason
playoffs and an unofficial end of
a dynasty.
Or was it just that the
dynasty was on hiatus?
Conti replaces Brian Charti-
er as the girls coach Uus season
Wlth hopes of proV10g that the
program that posted back-to-
back national titles m 1992 and
'93 LS alive and flounshing.
"We have set goals as a
cOdching staff and as a team to
definitely get back to the play-
ofls," Conti said.
The CIF volleyball coaches
seem to think that is legitimate
as they tagged the Sea Kings as
the No. 9 \earn m the state in
D1V1s1on I in the preseason poll.
"I would imagine some of
the votes came in because of
the name of the school," Conti
said. "That's not to knock what
the girls are capable of,
because we do have a core of
five or six returners."
Last season's starting setter,
Corre Myer, returns for her final
prep campaign.
"She is steady and consis-
tent," Conti said. •she works
extremely hard and has really
taken on a leadership role."
Also ma.king up that core is
All-Sea View League First
Team selection Sarah Petry.
Petry has spent her first
three seasons as an outside hit-
ter, but Conti is trying to tum
her into a middle blocker in
order to get her, senior Jordana
Havrilu.k and sophomore Jamie
Brownell into the game at the
same time.
•we're training (Petry) to be
a middle blocker. She's picking
it up really fast. She's a fast
learner, but she's been an out-
side hitter for a long ti.me,•
Conti said. "But she has a real-
ly good attitude and if she
thinks it'll help the team win,
she'll do it."
The Sea Kings also have
senior Brooke Reese, junior
Whitney McDonnell and Dnu-
tra Havrilulc, a sophomore up
from1&v~ty. vying for the
middle~ position.
Senior Audrey Anhood and
Paige Woodward, a junior, are
battling for the right side posi-
tion, while defensive specialists
Marissa Becker and Kerry Wil-
son will also see time on the
wood.
Conti believes that his team's
strengths are camaraderie and
ball control.
"We're still trying to figure
out where to put who, and how
to get the best players on the
floor at once,• he said. "They
are working extremely hard
and moving in the right direc-
r------------------------, I I

tion."
B'eing away from the girls'
game for a couple years when
he coached at Foothill, Conti
said that he is hoping to take
some of the momentum from
last spring's run with the boys to
the girls' court.
"It took us a while to show
(the boys) that the hard work
will eventually pay off," he
said. "That's what we're trying
to sell right now: Hard work
will pay off for us in the future.•
The Sea Kings head to the
Fountain Valley T9\lllla.tnent
this 4'eekeild to kick. off "the
season and a .Preseason slate
that boasts a handful of ranked
teams.
"This is not a schedule I did,
but I have no complaints," Con-
ti said . "I like it because we'll
see some extremely tough ·
teams in preseason and that
Will preface the league."
Corona del Mar will see
Laguna Beach, Huntington
Beach, Calvary Chapel and
Mater Dei before plunging into

• A trio of events will
touch several issues
concerning women
and sport.
C hildren. Charity. Equality.
1bree unrelated events
that showcase women in
sports will culminate over the
next couple weeks to touch the
lives of young girls, raise money
for breast cancer research and
sene as a shining example ol
equal pay for women in
prof~ional athletics.
Girls, Incorporated of Orange
County has teamed with
Oshman's Sporting Goods and
the UCI athletic departmmit to
provide a sports development
program for local girls today,
Sept. 12.
The Orange County Race for
the Cure, a run/walk at Fashion
Island, will benefit the Susan G.
Komen Breast Cancer
Foundation Sept. 28.
Finally, the 1997 World
Championships of Beach
Volleyball, which features some
Orange County athletes, takes
place at the UCLA Tennis Center
and will have $600,000 up for
grabs marking the first time that
men and women athletes will
compete for equal prize money.
This event began Thursday and
wraps up Saturday.

Students from Estancia and
Costa Mesa High Schools, Currie
Middle School, Summit Day
Center and TeWinkle
Intermediate converged at the
60,000-square foot Irvine
Osbman's for the second of three
Girls, Inc. events where
youngsters play different sports,
sample equipment, eat pizza, )
drink Gatorade and listen to
stories told by athletes, coaches
and administrators.
An on-going athletic program
at Girls, inc. in Costa Mesa
called "Sporting Chance" hosts
age-appropriate programs to
develop athletic skills and
positive attitudes.
"Stucties show that girls tend
to lose self-confidence and
self-worth between the ages of 9
and 14 years old,• Girls, Inc.
President Susan Wampler said.
•1t•s during these years that girls
becxwne more vulnerable to
negative outside influences and
to mixed messages about risky
behaviors.•
Enter the tool known as
athletics.
By opening up the huge
Oshman's store with a half-court
basketball floor, mini tennis
court, batting cage and
simulated driVing range and golf
course on a video screen, the
participants get a chance to play.
"We must, as a community,
play a part in shaping the lives of
tomorrow's women," Oslunan's
Irvine store manager Chuck
Potter said. "If we don't work
together to help them have
positive expectations for
themselves and pride in their
abilities, who will?"
UCI athletes like Anteater
hoopsters Kirsten Kappel,
Sabrina Robertson and Leticia
Oseguera, tennis players Alexis
Brown and Amber Christianson
CORREC~ION
Mesa's Davidson OK
It was incorrectly reported in
the Sept. 5 edition that Costa
Mesa High senior Brandon
Davidson would miss the first
three games of the Costa Mesa
High football season for discipli-
nary reasons.
Davidson is, in fact, eligible to
play for the Mustangs, who open
their season tonight against Sad-
dleback at Orange Coast College.
molly
yanity
and golfer Jerome Valentin were
on hand to instruct the
youngsters.
The Anteaters talked to the
kids about fitness, strength, team
work, playing fair, time
management and practice.
·we are committed to
reaching into the community and
helping to introduce young girls
to the benefits and sheer fun
associated with sports
participation," UCI assistant
athletic director Charlie Wright
said.
President of Women's Sports
Services discussed the
possibilities of other jobs in
sports for women besides being
the star athlete. She pointed out
that an increasing number of
women are sports writers,
photographers, equipment and
clothing manufacturers and
more.
The next Girls, Inc. event is
Friday, Sept. 12 at the Irvine
Spectrum Oshman's from 5-7
p.m.
Contact Potter for directions

Last year approximately
$300,000 was raised by the
Orange County Race· for the •
Cure. With two weeks remaining
until the actual race, the number
of registrants has already tripled
from last year's mark.
The Race for the Cure is a
series of races held in 77 cities
throughout the country. It is
ma.king its sixth date in Orange
County.
•The numbers are already
three times as high," a
representative from the Komen
Breast Cancer Foundation said.
"We're expecting between
18-20,000 participants."
This event includes a 5K race
and a 1-mile run/walk.
The Foundation, celebrating
its 15-year anniversary, was
founded by Nancy Brinker, the
wife of Norman Brinker who
o\vns Brinker Enterprises
(Chili's Grill and Bar.)
Brinker's sister was Susan
Komen, who died of breast
cancer at age 36 leaving behind
two young children and a
husband. Brinker promised her
dying sister that it would be her
mission to improve the education
on the disease and the research.
Brinker began calling her
husband's friends, which
included the chairman of
American Airlines (still a national
sponsor), and put together the
first race.
Prior to this year, the
Foundation had raised $65
million. As awarenes -tm.
partidpation -bas grown. tbe
Race for the Cwe bas alr'Mdy
raised $20 mlllibn this year.
1\venty-ftve percent of tbe
proceeds from each race goes
to the national foundation
supports research .. But 75% stays
in the community for local
research, free ma.mmognuns,
educational services and other
support amenities.
The Foundation representattve 1'.
urged that those wishing to a,~
participate preregister. { •

sponsors (Cbevro11. Kaiser

Finally, the Super Bowl of
beach volleyball will pit the
·I·
world's best pairs against each .,,,
other in the first-ever bringing \. •,
together of all three of the
globe's beach associations -the ••:
Federation Internationale de 1 •
Volleyball, Association of .
Volleyball Professionals and the ''J •
Women's Professional Volleyball· .,,
Assooation -at the World
Charnpionslups of Beach
Volleyball. l
The most fascinating issue I
behind this show (asid,e from the
incredible competition that will
undoubtedly occur) is that it is
the first time men and women
will compete for the same
amount of prize money when
they square off for $300,000
each.
HThis, to me, is where the
future lies," WPVA star Nancy
Reno said, ·where men and
women are in the same arena . t • •
-different games but the same ->",
arena -playing for the same -, r
money." ' .. Reno, who teams with the ,_ •,
winningest beach volleyball
female Karolyn Kirby, is known
. . ..
as an ardent feminist , .,
representing the beach circuit ,.
·volleyball is lucky because ·' :,
someone was smart enough to ,
lower the net. If they hadn't, (the;.., 1•
women's game) would~ borin9.1 , ~
"The women's game is playeq.._,,
on women's dimensions and. for .. '.
fan appeal, it's perfect," Reno ~
said.
But 'for the female players in •· [', the United States, the prize
money might well have been
lowered along with net as the
men reap considerably higher ;' ..
purses that leave the .
upper-middle of the pack womefi
players unable to rely on ,
volleyball as a career while the
men can manage.
The Championships began ~ .. :
Thursday at the UCLA Tennis i.-·.
Center and run through
Saturday.
Corona del Mar High
graduate Brian Lewis will be
competing on the men's side.

is at times very funny, at other
times very touching and always
very entertaining.
Robe.rt Carlyle, Tom
Wilkenson and Mark Addy
head up the cast of unem-

how popular and lucrative a

Desperately needing money

Adding to the plot, none of

that at one hour, 35 minutes, ·

Light, compassionate
comedy a winner
Sheffield, England, once a
prosperous steel town, has seen
better days. With the mill
recently closed, most ot the
townsmen are unemployed,
low in self-esteem. and desper-
ate for work.
When the Chippendale's
male strippers sell out a small
looal club for a ladies' night
perfODDa.Dce, it gives Gaz, a
divorced, out-of-work father an
idea: fon:n bis own dance
troupe, give the ladies a "real
•
show,• and make a lot of quid
(money) off of il
So begins the British come-
dy "The Full Monty,• the title
referring to the fact th.at tp
wannabe male dancers are
going to go a step further than
the Chippendale's dancen and
do a fully nude show (•the full
monty• in Brit-speak).
Don't let the subject matter
implied by the title fool you.
This is anything but a moVie
about a strip show. It is a char-
acter-driven
film, more ·
about the
individuals'
involved
than the
actual
striptease,
where the
storyline
revolves
around the
characters' Richard Brunette
personal
stories as well as their interac-
tions with one another.
Gaz is divorced and unable
to pay maintenance (child sup-
port) to his ex-wife for their son
Nathan and is therefore going
to lose visiting privileges.
Nathan, or Nat as he's callled,
often plays the grown-up in his
relationship with his father and
though he loves him, is quite
often embarassed by Gaz's irre-
sponsible and juvenile behavior.
Dave, a littJe overweight
and very self-conscious about
it, IS Gaz's best mate, and is
expenenang tmpotence prob-
~ems and subsequent jealousy
issues with lus wife. Next we
have Gerald, the former mill
foreman unable to admit to his
spend~~ wife that he's lost
bis job1 becaUle be is an ama.
teur ballroom dancer, Gaz
recruits btm to be the troupe's
cboreographer.
Rounding out the cast we
have Hone. a slightly long-m-
the tooth older gentleman but
still the best dancer of the lot
(which isn't saying much);
I.offer, a biendlea loser saved
from suicide by Gaz and Dave,
and finally Guy, simple-minded
but enthusia.stic, and actually
1he only good-looking wanker
in the group.
This film is a light and com-
passion.ate comedy, funnier
more because of the situations
the characters are put in than
because of the comedic perfor-
mances. I found it very enjoy-
able and can't really see anyone
going to this film not liking it

himself as he tried to pull it off.
To watch Seagal strap on a gui-

knowing that the unfamiliar
voice on the soundtrack is his, is
depressing when the closest to

While reluctant to talk about
F1tzgerakrs penonal life or
details about their relationship,
Ring did say working tor the
author had a profoUJid effect on
her life.
•It was extraordinary to
work for him,• Ring said in a
telephone interview from her
Beverly Hills home. •1 was

Ring worked for the author, be
took side jobs writing short sto-

At the time of bis death,
Fitzgerald had finished six
chapters of "The Last lYcoon •
and was living in poverty, Ring
said.
"His life was so traumatic,•
she said. "Leaving the unfin-
ished novel brought him back
to the reading audience and
the interest in him revived.•
Ring said she believes inter-
est in the author grew substan-
tially after bis death because of
the way bis writing portrayed
life during that period.
•He depicted an era like
nobody else could,· she said.
"He put bis stamp on the '20s
and '30s. He bad such a sense
of what was going on, who
people were and what was
going on inside them. He
understood the social life of the
country and the economics of it
as well.•
Working for Fitzgerald gave
Ring the confidence to talk to
other writers, she said, and ulti-
mately helped her get a 1ob
working for Paramount studios

She later became editor of
the Western history and travel
magazine Westways.
Sunday's talk will focus on
Fitzgerald's influence on Ring's
life, bow she got the job, and
what it was like working with

American authors of all time.

Masters of
Plays at South Coast Repertoiy's quirky Second Stage are aided
by the technical wizardry of Jon Lagerquist and Tony Fanning
l)ory by Nancy Cheever • Photos by Marc Martin
Performances on South
Coast Repertory's Second
Stage, a smaller and more
ihtimate setting than the facili-
ty's Mainstage, can be success-
ful not only because of casting,
playwriting and directing, but
because of behind-the-scenes
gurus who are able to capitalize
on its size.
The 161-seat horseshoe-
sbaped theater in which the per-
forqiers are at eye level or lower
than the audience is the site of
•Good as New,· Peter Hedges'
contemporary black comedy
about a teenager's first day of
driving that forces her 1960s
activists parents to re-examine
their changmg principles.
Creating the ideal set for the
theater's newest play is the job
of SCR'~ technical director Jon
Lagerquist and set designer
Tony Fanning.
Llke all plays on the Second
Stage, "Good as New" was cho-
sen in part because of the size
and parameters of its set.
"It's always going to be a
floor and a wall.• Lagerquist
said of the Second Stage set.
"The question is, 'What is the
floor and what is the wall?'•
For "Good as New," Fanning
envisioned t.lfe front po~n of a
car as the foundation for the first
act and a living room setting for
the second.

Fanning sketched rough designs
of both scena and then collabo-

TQe wills of John.Wayne and
Jackie Onassis may be consid-
ered good gossip material for
most people, but for Dennis
Sandoyal. they are tools to teach
others how to avoid major mis-
takes when planning an estate.
Sandoval, an hvine attorney,
has been teaching professionals
what mistakes these stars and
others such as Marilyn Monroe
and Groucbo Marx made when
they decided to plan their
estates.
Now, Sandoval will be teach-
ing these bicl<s of the trade to
the public during a two-week
seminar at Orange Coast
College on Tuesday and Sept.
23.
The seminar, •Estate

Lessons Learned from the Wills
of Jackie 0 . and John Wayne,•
uses the wills of celebrities to
teach people how to plan and
indudes discussions about how
the estate tax system works and
what a will. trust and durable
powers of attorney are.
John Wayne, for example,
made the mistake of writing in
his will what property he was
giving his children, which then
turned to a trust.
"If he created a trust instead
of a will to trust, the family
would've avoided $400,000 in
probate fees,• Sandoval said.
Jackie Onassis made a big
mistake by drawing up her will
one month before she died, he
said.
"lbars not a lot of time to do
real big planning,• he said.
The estate had to pay
$900,000 in probate fees,

Sandoval will also focus on

when medical decisions need to
be made or if a person is inca-
pacitated and the deasioo
needs to be made whether to
put them iii a nursing home or
to speak for him. • . ·u you don't provide that
information, then you have to go

Sandoval said the seminar is

without large estates can benefit.
