Mr. Jacobson designed the River- side Plaza, the first major shop- ping center anchored by a large department store in Cali- fornia. His practice included several commercial structures and custom homes. He designed the Laguna Royal •own-your-own" apartments in Laguna Beach, a new form of home ownership at the tiine that preceded the modem con- ·dominium.

Wheeler said there are many fdctors working against families planning for a timely birth. First and foremost, most women don't get pregnant the first try. lt typically takes an average of three to six tries before a couple is successful. Also, Newport tends to have a population base that is older than its Orange County neighbors. Older women te~d to have lower pregnancy rates than younger ones, Wheeler added. "I think the number of deliveries will go up around springtime because the incep- tion occurred two to three months later than they had planned, H he said. Parents expe~ting during the holiday season have taken doctors updates in stride, Wheeler .added. . None of Hoag's patients have· been overeager to take such mea- sures as inducing labor to meet the year-end deadline. ~Here in Newport, they are a different crowd," Wheeler said. "They tend to shy flway from any publicity. H 0 B I T U A R I E ·s He retired from his practice in 1997 after being licensed in 30 states. Mr. Jacobson served active duty in the United States Air Force .from 1943 to 1946 and continued as an active reserve until .1972. He rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel. Mr. Jacobson owned prop- erty on the Balboa Peninsula for nearly 30 years. He is survived by his wife of 46 years, Jacqualine; two daughters. Joy and Joni; a son, Jay; and four grandchildren.

Born in New Jersey on Sept. 14, 1918, Mr. Edwards was an artist from the moment he could hold a pen- cil. His academic schooling s uffered somewhat, as he would rather sketch than read.

The film, written by Scott Alexander and Larry Karaszewslo ("Ed Wood• and "The People vs. Larry Flynt"), begins with Kaubnan (beautifully played by Jim Carrey) as a trouble- some kid in his room, refusing to go out and play, preferring to host his own TV variety program for the cameras he believed were ludden in his bedroom walls. His material was inspired by shabby rughtclub and lounge acts He understood that a live performance is rarely more fascinating that when it is gomg wrong The movie details Kaufman's ascent from bombing at cof- feehouses to polishing the art of antagonizing the audience; from his numerous ·saturday Night Live" duties to b.Ls role of Lalka Gravas on "Taxi"; from his various live TV stunts including being Inter- gender Wre~tling Champion of the World to his lounge- singer alter ego, the Rob Orozco gr~t Tony Clifton. Joining Catrey and Forman along for the ride are Danny DeVito as Kaufman's agent George.Shapiro, Paul .Giamatti as Kaubnan's writing partner Bob Zmuda, and Courtney Love as his girlfriend Lynne Marguiles. Forman's direction on displaying the circus-like atmosphere pf their inter- twined lives glides along on lbe strength of Carrey's per- formance. The film often mirrors l<duf· man's high-flying act. Like Kaufman's act, when the film and Kaubnan's act are funny, they both work. However, when Kaufman's act was not funny, the moVie is painful to watch. In a way, the film remains true to Kaufman's stubborn vision of a compul- swe entertainer who will deceive you, stage elaborate deceptions and hoaxes all for the sake of one laugh, be it his own. The film, under the direction of any lesser talent, would have turned the movie into a sweet parable o! a rms- understood guy. The movie leaves us with a mystery as to who or what made Kaufman a great entertainer, and it should.

Damon too innocent to play 'Ripley' I n "The Talented Mr. Rip- ley," Anthony Mingbella's first film since •Tue Eng- lish Patient," we again get classy production values and very talented actors, bµt a movie that is curioJJsly unin- volving. The reason for this could be the casting. Novelist Patricia Highsmith's Tom Ripley is described as a completely amoral, evil man witb a gift for deceit. This same story was done in the '60s (•Purple Noon") with French star Alain Delon as the title character. Delon's Ripley was a danger- ous opportunist who killed and schemed to get what he coveted. As played here by Matt Damon, however, Ripley is too wholesome to be taken sen- ously as a threat. He comes across as a nerdy, needy guy driven to violence only after his insecurilles are exposed. Set m 1958, Ripley is mis· taken for a Princeton class- mate of wealthy shipping heir Dickie Greenleaf, who left New York two years prior for a hedonistic life in Mongibel- Car Accident?

Soon he has moved into Greenleaf's house, is wearing bis clothes and liv- ing off the qreenJeaf fortune. Greenleaf is soon bored and plans to move north. This send Ripley into a paruc, for he has fallen in love with this . new life and also with Green- leaf. About an hour into the movie, everything changes with one shocking act of vio- lence. The supporting cast of Pal· trow, Phillip Seymour Hoff. man and Cate Blanchett are all good, but it is Jude Law who steals the show as Green- leaf. And Blanchett gets the film's best line, "Rich people like us, who despise money, only like to associate with oth- er rich people who also despise money."

The jacket sports a Princeton insignia, which starts a series of events lead- ing to a harrowing finale. •The Talented Mr. Ripley" is not a pretty story, but it is an engrossing one. The period is the late ·sos. Ripley lives in a dark, cluttered basement in New York, scraping out a liv- ing by playing the piano at random events and convinced he's a nobody consigned to living in a basement and he'll never be anything but a nobody.

Greenleaf offers this presum- ably Princetonian classmate cl trip to Europe.

Brown successfully squelched her nomination by th<'n Gov. Pete Wtlson to be the state's superintendent of public tnstrucbon. Then, or course, there was ... the bankruptcy and those dark days. At the time, Bergeson's polibcdl prestige was gainmg still, so much so that cand.Jddtes often sought her endorsement. For example, the recall Bergeson speaks of began lo brew actually because of d non - endorsement. She had declined to support John Moor- lach in his btd to unseat Citron from the county treasurer post. At the time, Moorlach, now the country tredsurer. had pre- cliE"ted the collapse of the coun- ty dividend fund and he pub- licly noted Bergeson's nonsup· port ffWhen I look back at how the ruce went, that may be the turrung factor," he said at the tune. But through all the bank- ruptcies ups and downs, Berge- son kept an optimistic outlook. "You don't really have dis- appointments, you have expe- riences," she says. And that she does. Bergeson, who moved to Newport Beach's Baycrest commuruty in 195.8 with hus- band, Garth, has been in public We since 1964, making her the most seasoned politician in OrcLnge County. "When I worked with her at th'e county level, we always relied on Marian to help us with state legislabon that was needed to get us through the bankruptcy,• says county Supervisor Jim Silva, who was sworn m the same time as Bergeson, nght when the bankruptcy began. ·we would never have been able to get some of those bills passed with- out her help." Bergeson's long political tenure began as a Newport Elementary School Distnct board member in 1964 and lat- er in 1966 m the newly unified Newport-Mesa district.

The education theme run· ning through her life is hard to miss. Today, Bergeson is a mem- ber of the state board of educa- tion.

As part of Wilson's adminis- tration, Bergeson was instru- mental u'l pusl:ung for statewide class-size reductions, improving teacher trainmg and CWT.'cutµm standards, providing more incentives to lure in good leath- ers and boosting test scores.

Bergeson's biggest accom- plishments, however, center around the reldtionships she's established and the loyalty she's engendered with her staff members and coUeagues, polit· ical and otherwise. "I cut my political teeth with Manan Bergeson," says former Newport Beach Mayor and <;ouncilwoman Evelyn Hart, who has worked on some of Bergeson's campaigns. "There are a few women in politics and none of them are role models like Marian Bergeson She's very quotable, very dovro to earth dnd a very loyal friend over the years." Fuentes is another adnurer. "It has lo be said that Md.Clan 1s very first, a beoub.ful Mormon woman," Fuentes says.

Then in October, St-tJ>hen Wagner was arrested fot'embezzllng nearly $4 mil- liorr'from the Newport-Mesa Unified School District. The twin embezzlements havtJ had long-lasting effects. Ne~ leadership was brought in M both City Hall and the school district in the wake of theenbezzlements, which led to major restructuring of those institutions and, especially in the case of the Board of Edu- cation, major community involvement in policy deci- sions. fbe district is still recover- ing-1trom Wagner's theft, as mucn in terms of public trust as (i9llars and cents. Wh~ investigators searched Wa<jri- er's Dover Shores home, they found paintings, mink-lined tuxedos, jewels, china and a gold-plated piano. ID March 1994, Wagner was sentenced to five years in prilfon for what was believed, at tOe time, to be the largest embezzlement from a public agency in state history. He died while in jail from compli- cations from AIDS after spending about a year and a half in a medical ward. On news of his death, many who worked with Wagner still could. not bring themselves to forglve him. Dtton's former friends and colleagues, too, were stunned when he was arrested.

But the task, which spanned the decade, proved difficult. The problem was this: sed- iment, pouring in from inland areas, was threatening to pre- vent tidal flushing, which would clog up the bay. It was first noticed in the 1980s, when three sediment basins were dredged on the bay floor. This way, dirt and debris could settle at the bottom and the tide could still flush the bay to provide its unique mix of fresh and salt water. In the mid-1990s, it was already time for the largest of those basins to be dredged. But while the sediment con- tinued to pile up, the money for the project didn't. Getting the SS.4 million from the state for the project was a years- long task -one that didn't end until long after the dredg- ing had begun. Then came El Nmo. The heavy rain seuon of late 1997 and early 1998 brought an extra 200,000 cubic yards of muck and added another $2 rnllllon to the J>t0ject'1 price tag. County offlda1a agreed to front the C09t of the dredging while they continued to lobby the ltate for fundi. Jn the summer of 1998, the state agreed to pay the $5.4 mtWon and the federal gov· emment appnMMI tbe eddi· tiona1 S2 mtJHoft for the El Nino-related damage. El Nlfto..tueled ltorml Do wreu.d ha.oc on BKk Bay om., dolln9 lame portlonl of it for more than a year for major repair work. Another aspect of the bay's woes during the 1990s was the Irvine Ranch Water Dis- trict's very unpopular plan to discharge its highly treated waste water into the bay. The district got a permit for the project from a regional water board, but an agreement with the city held the dumping off for two years. In the mean- time, Defend the Bay -led by activist Bob Caustin - appealed every decision and took the water district to court several times in an attempt to derail the plan. The efforts finally paid off in the fall of 1998, when a Superior Court judge over~ turned the district's permit. A new bay-dumping project was developed and presented to the public, but bas since been put on the back burner.

Tony Villa were the subjects of a sexual harass- ment lawsuit filed by four women employees or the Police Department. Murphy and other city offl- dals were incredulous at first, defendmg the chief and por- traying the women as dis- gruntled employees. But before it was over, the scandal would spill across the newspaper headlines daily with details of alleged lewd conduct by the two men, including one instance where a dispatcher accused the pair of raping her after a 1981 par- ty at the Bonita Canyon land- fill. The department's morale sunk to new lows during the controversy. City off1oals and business leaden. seemed tom over their longtime support for the chief. Long-standing officers aired their deep-d- ed gnevanc and ultimately the rank-and-rile officers put the icing on the cake by i u- ing a 90% vote of no conlt· dence for Campbell. Murphy wound up fmng Campbell and Villa, then - faced with a long, grueling civil lawswt -later did an about-face and mnd a d al with both officers and th tr attorney to rehlr them back and retire them With th 1r pensions and benef 1ts intact.

ORANGE COUNTY BANKRUPTCY -On Dec. 6, 1994, Orange County's perfect little world came crashing down. The county, known for its wealthy, successful residents who live in milhon-dollar coastal homes, filed for the largest municipal bankruptq in U S history. The filing came five days after rising interest rates caused its risky, high-yield mvestment fund to crash, losing $1.5 billion 'in money from 180 public agen- cies. A.mol)g those agenaes were the cities of Newport Beach and Costa Mesa, as well as the Newport-Mesa Unified School District. The district had $82 million invest- ed -$41 million of which it borrowed specifically to put in the pool. Costa Mesa bCJd about $3 million tied up and Newport Beach had $16 mil- lion In the five years since, they have recovered most of it, but officials acknowledge they will never get all of it back. U only they had listened to John Moorlach, the Costa Mesa certified public accoun- tant who predicted with uncanny accuracy the coun- ty's financial time bomb in bis 1994 campaign for county treasurer. Few paid attention to the warnings, dismissing Moorlach as a skewed public- office candidate Then-state Sen. Manan Bergeson even withdrew her endorsement of him after he was too critical of then-neasurer Bob Citron. County officials did not call Moorlach for several days after the bankruptcy. Despite his off er to serve as treasurer, they co~oned Bill Pope- )oy to get the county together. Popejoy left three months lat- er and Moorlach was finally asked in March 1995 to step in. Moorlach was reelected in 1998 after running unop- po ed. With o more conserva- tive and well-documented investment strategy, which also includes a four-membef ovemght oomnuttee. he is tJy- ing to put the past behind bbn encl move on. The public ogenc:l that were affected say th y are now virtually ful- ly recovered from the bank- ruptcy. But one thing is certain: No on tn this county will ever forg t that day. 6 mvlf• .... aAltl -The ltory grabbed national heedlines and tore • community apart The drc:umttabcel weren•t unusual for teenegen. ~ dwts wowa edtnlt tbeY ' ..,. indulged 10 drinking during their tugh school days.

Over a two-year period, there were angry words, ovil law- suits and even what some called a nuracle. The dnver of the vehicle Jason Rausch, was the desig- nated driver after a party. Rausch was sober but some of his passengers had been dnnkirig. Rausch was driving erratically through a series of curves on Irvine Avenu when the sports utility vehicl crashed into a median ancr flipped over. One student, 18- year-old Donny Bridgman. was killed. The remaining passengers were also inJured. The most seriously hurt were Amanda Arthur and Daniel Townsend. • Out of all the victims, Arthur captured most of the pubhc's attenbon. The acci- dent had left Arthur with major head injuries that kept her in a coma for three months.

The freezer was kept in a truck parked at his Dewey, Ariz., home. A neighbor had noticed a power cord corning out of the back and found it suspicious. Investigators said Famalaro had duped Huber into coming along with him after her car blew a tire. Authorities said Famalaro sodomized her and bludgeoned her to death with a set of tools in his Laguna Hills warehouse. It took another three years for Famalaro's trial. Though the defendant came from d household where be reportedly Jed a loveless childhood, it couldn't outweigh the brutality of the crlme. A jury found Famalaro guilty and recom- mended the death penalty in June 1997. A judge later upheld that decision and Famalaro currently sits on Death Row.

Indeed, the 1990s were stacked with individuals who made national and international impact, big-time events which brought headliners to town, and enough local high school championship teams to drape a few gym walls with banners Here are the Top 10 • Newport-Mesa sports stories ~ from the last decade of the millennium, as selected by the Daily Pilot sports department.

In addition, they advanced to the semifinals once ~9?), the quarterfinals twice ('90 4.nd '91) and miSsed the playoffs only twice in the decade. Their 92-31-1 record equates to a .745 winrung percentage. :llbey have had Winrung streaks of 16 and 12 and have not lost to a non-Sea View League team since Oct. 5, 1995. Included among the 31 losses are t 1 setbacks to eventual CIF champions (at least one m every season the Tars did not claim the crown), as well as three defeats by section runners-up. Since 1992, only one Orange County public school (Los Alamitos) has more wins. Toshiba Senior Classic -The Senior PGA Tour event, comprised of golfers at least 50 years old, debuted in N'"ewport-Mesa in 1995 at the Mesa Verde Country Club. The first senior tour event held in Orange County moved the following year to the Newport Beach Country Club, where it has flounshed as one of the tour's featured stops. In addition to the opportunity to see legendary figures in the sport, the tournament has provided local gallenes with some memorable finishes.

And an "egghead' 1s what he is out of uniform " Saturday Everung Post once described George Yardley as having to overcome the "homble back alleys of Balboa Island" while growing up. Yardley iure had them fooled, JUSt like the defenders who would try to guard his unstoppable jump shot. Ldter in his seven-year Hall of Fame NBA career, big headlines reported Yardley as MBasketball's Unhappy Gunner.• He missed lus family and could make more money as an engineer. Could you imagine a player saying that in the game's economics todayi Yardley, born Nov. 3, 1928. could alc,o paint, play the piano and construct a house from the ground up. He could soup up hot rods and uphol!;ter furmture. On the court, Yardley, also a former U S. Navy mdn, "had a very soft touch with a quick release dnd an unstoppable jump shot," Sharman, another Hall of Farner and fonner Lakers coach and GM, once said. Yardley broke Georgl? Mikap's smgle-c,eason NBA sconng record m 1957-58, averaging 27 .8 pomts, a staggering figure at the time. Mikan, a t>-10 center for the Minneapolis Lakers who was known as ·Tue Beasr in his Cataloged among · the NBA's inost noble departures (a list headed by Michael Jordan), Yardley revoluboru.zed the NBA before retiring early, soanng to the basket in a bird-like manner while using state-of-the-art Jump .., shots and slam dunks to dazzle crowds. George Yardley playmg days, scored 1,932 points in 1950-51. Known as the original •Bird,• Yardley was a talented rocket engmeer from Stanford and retired from basketball at the zenith of his career to better provide for his family. He left the NBA with a lifetime scoring average of 19.2 points per game and 8.9 rebounds a contest -20 2 ppg in his final season (1959-60 with the Syracuse Nationals). Only 31 when he walked away, Yardley is one of only seven players in NBA history to retire after averaging more than 20 points in their last year. Breaking Hank Luisetti's Stanford single-season scoring record lS Yardley's most treasUJ1ed feat, but his 2,001 pomts in 1957-58 for the Detroit Pistons-the first m NBA history to reach the 2,000 milestone -is perhaps the creme de la creme of his career and one of the reasoAs for his 1996 enshrinement into the Basketball Hall of Fame. The pnde of Newport Harbor High (Class of '46) and considered the Newport-Mesa commuruty's mo t accomplished athlete, George H.

"With the kind of body , he had, he would twi:.t and tum and outmaneuver people underneath." A six-time NBA All-Star, Yardley attended Stanford as a walk-on and never did receive a scholarship, helping to pay his way through school by working as a uruon apprenbce carpenter dunng vacations.
