By Leslie Simmons, Daily Pilot NEWPORT BEACH -The owners of a 1'1.sti.n-based night- club promotion company plans to file suit against the Newport Beach Tennis Club on Monday in Harbor Municipal Court, claim- ing a breach of contract over plans for a nightclub at the facil- ity. Dano Smith of Newport Beach, and bis partner, Rick Brun, of Tustin, said their busi- ness, Millennium Group - which promotes upscale night- clubs in the Orange County and Los Angeles areas -entered into a contract with the tennis club to hold two nightclub events in the bar area. The first event was to be held Saturday, the sec- ond one Jan. 10. But Brun claims the club vio- lated the agreement when it can- celed those plans after his com- pany spent several thousand dol- lars in promotions. A spokes- woman from the Newport Beach Tennis Club denies the allega- tions. Brun said the tennis club's then-bar manager, Tony Walsh, approached him and Smith, say- ing the club was •tooking to increase its alcohol sales and was interested in going into a joint venture for a night.dub on Satur- day nights.• He said Walsh knew of Millenruum because of its oth- er promotions in area bars, including The Warehouse and the Velvet Lounge. Walsh since bas left the tennis club and could not be reached for comment. According to the contract, signed by Walsh, the club agreed to play host to •two consecutive events under the direction, con- trol and supervision of (Millenni- um Group)." The contract also states if the Newport Beach Tennis C lub decides to cancel either of the two events, it will reimburse all costs and out-of-pocket expendi- tures advanced by the Millenru- um Group. ·The Newport Beach Tennis • SEE SUIT PAGE 6 Members of student board get voting, ·motioning rights •Newport-Mesa Unified also wants to include teens in superintendent search. By Husein Mashni, Daily Pilot NEWPORT-MESA -Students in the Newport-Mesa Unified School District are about to get a more vocal role in policy creation and the superintendent search process. Starting in January, student board members will be given preferential voting and motion- ing privileges. Preferential vot- ing, while unequal to the vote of an elected board member, gives student board members a stronger adVllory capadty. Their votes, however, will not be counted in the final decision- making process. The highest privilege a student board member can get in the state of California is that Of motioning, which allows them to bring issues up for a vote or to second motions that have already been brought up, requiring board members to vote on them. Spearheading the effort to get those rights extended are student board members Gal~ Fajardo, 1(1 Mehgan Fay, 15; Elizabeth Ben- nett, 15; and Loren Krause, 17. ·we have all the same rights as the other board members,• said G!lel, who a1so serves as stu- dent body viee president at Costa Mesa High School Preferential voting does not extend into matters of employer- employee relati011S, however. •SEE STUDENTS PAGE 8 I Wish I Were Thin Every January, thousands of folks resolve to lose . weight.

Of course, a foot of snow, sleet, and hai1 can also be quite helpful.· When it comes to choosing a 4x4, you'll want all the help you can ge~. Because there are over 40. And they're not all equally capable in snow. In fact, there are a number of things unique to SUVs that probably never I crossed your mind. Which is why we've created a program that gets you up to 4x4 speed. With an ''I know nothing" guide to 4x4 technology. A glossary of 4x4 terms. Charts chat compare virtually every SUV. And employees who can answer engineer- ing questions in a language you1l understand. Plain English. So if you're looking for an SlN, come in and see us first. You can even get our free 128-'page guide to SlNs. Why not take advantage of Land Rover's SO-year obsession with everything 4x4? Because without our help, you could wind up in over your head.
