Statement of faith: St Matthew's believes and practices "the faith once delivered to the saints" (Jude 3). We believe it is impor- tant that the faith and practice of the church be firmly rooted in the teachings of the Bible. Our inter- pretation of the Bible is guided by the tradition of the church -that which all Christians have belJeved and practiced from the beginning of the church (2 Thes- salonians 2:15). Our life of prayer and worship is rooted in the Anglican tradition and the Book of Common Prayer.

Sports superagent and e~rt Beach resident Leigh eihberg is spreading his ealth once again by donat· g $60,000 to the annual ool fund-raiser, Spirit Run. The money, which will be ed over a three-year period, ows Steinberg and his wife, cy, to have their names ched to the title sponsor le. "The community spirit and oeaJ support for tbls event has always impressed us," Steinberg said. "We ,..are delighted to support this meaningful event and help the local coounumty schools realize their important ob1ec- tive of enhancing pupllc edu- cation." It shouldn't come as a sur- prise that Steinberg offered a small portion of his fil\anctal fortune to event organizers. But it was somewhat of a jaw. dropper to see Steinberg at a recent meeting at LlncolI) Ele- mentary School. ·When par- ents and teachers learned °"' ~ u II NW Clmst hw Ill., Ill .,Jn rlMJ 1• CJ,,.;s, lllt _, ""' f111thfol •"" about the agent. who rubs clboW!i with some of sports' b1gge t names, ihey were excilca. •He's defmiteJy stepped up to the plate,• said Rita Gold- berg, a board member for Spirit Run 2000. ·1 admire him tor tying together his pro- fessional and pmsonal goals, which says a lot about his total value system." The 50-year-old agent who represents such gridiron great:; as quarterbacks Steve Young and Drew Bledsoe, has consistently helped communi- ty organizations, especially when it comes to children. Steinberg and partners Jef- frey Moorad and DaVid Dunn also challenge theu clients to support cau es that benefit their hometowns or the c1ties in whIC.h tliey play. The Spint Run is one of the large.st children's races in the state and attempts to raise money for four Newport Beach elementary schools - Andersen, Ea~tbluff, Harbor View and Lincoln. Since its inception 17 years ago, the annual event has netted about $1.5 million. The event features several races tor all ages, family-ori- ented activities and entertain- ment.

Call the Daily Pilot ClASSIFIEDS 642-5678 I ' Doily Pilot Soturdoy, Jonuory 81 2000 Ai Nothing is sweeter than sweet peas . S weet peas are one of Mother Nature's best creations. They are easy to grow, look fabulous 1n the garden, provide bundles and bundles of intoxicating flow- ers and sell-seed almost to a fault. I started my sweet pea fascination years ago, and since then I have fine-tuned the process so I get maxi- mum result~ with minimum effort. Let me walk you through the process so you and your family cah revel in these early spring miracles. Pick a spot in your garden that has full sun, moist soil • and room·enough for a trel- lis, bamboo tepee or wire structure. lf you need to ~end the soil, do it now. Any effort at this stage will reap exponential benefits. Sweet peas' tendrils need something to cling to, so ctepending on your style, select a method of support. U you are growing your sweet peas against a fence or wall, provide netting for th&-tendrils to grab. This will give you a dramatic plane of green leaves, reaching ten- drils and beautiful flowers. lf you choose a location in the middle of your garden, you will need a free-standing structure. There are many ways to provide support. One of my · favorites is a bamboo tepee. I use three bamboo poles, karen wag ht approximately 4 feet tall, "' and secure the top together with raffia or jute. I dig three )loles in a triangular pattern and plant the bamboo ends in the dirt. At this point I wrap the poles with nylon netting so the young plants will find a spot to grab. Met-' al wire fttames such as obelisks, cones or triangles are other lovely ways to give your plants the support they nee'd to give you maximum results. The plants climb upward toward the sun, and stems, leaves and tendrils ;ust seem to grow before your. very eyes. Next, the seeds. Most of mine are cultivated from last year's harvest, but I add at least one packet of new. seeds a year to my mix. SALE IN PROGRESS UP T060%0FF WOMEN'S C CHILDREN'S MAGASIN 209 209 Marine Ave., Balboa Island • (949) 673·5542 Sometimes my experiments lead to new generations of favorites, sometJ.mes not. ,4st year I tried some heir- loom varieties. Seeds are called ••heirloom" when they have been around for several generations. A fe~ of these._ are charming and fragrant, but I have found the best performers to be the improved strains that are disease-resistant, vigorous and produce bountiful flow- ers on long, sturdy stems. Sweet peas come in a huge array of colors. Color mixtures include deep rQse,· blue, purple, Scdrlet, laven- der, white, cream, amethyst on white ground, salmon, salmon pink on cream, and red. TI»s is not the time for color coordinauon; plant a variety of seed types and colors to frnd which varieties grow best in your location and soil. Soak your seeds in water for 24 hours before planting. This will help with seed gennination. Sow seeds 1 inch deep, 1 to 2 inches apart at the base of your supp_ort structure. Water well and fertilize. It might sound c,liche, but using Miracle Gro once a week will help pro- quce a breathtaking display of flowers. Once your sweet peas start flowering, cut, cut, cut. Sweet peas are prolific; the more you cut, the more flow- ers your plants wUl produce. As you cut your flowers, Sweet peas come ln many floral colors. Choose a wide variety for a showy display. arrange them in a bouquet style, tallest in the center · and shorter toward the out- side. Think of a traditional bridal bouquet and place the flowers accordingly. Before you place them in a vase, cut the ends of the stems straight across. then place them in a container. And speak.mg of contain- ers, sweet peas look good in any sm'all vase. If you have small vases with narrow necks, this is the time to pull them off the shelf and fill as · manY. as you can find. The only problem with.sweet peas is that you migbt run out of things to put them in or places to put them. A few sweet peas brighten a room and add a wonderful fra- grance that lasts for days. When you have filled all of your bedrooms, bath- rooms, kitchen and living room, give a bouquet to your orrection children's teachers, your neighbors and your c;o-work- . ers. These flowers were • meant for random acts of kindness. The cled.n, sweet fragrance is one of.the best parts of spring. It's one or Mother Nature's" loveliest muacles. • KAREN WIGHT is a Newport " Beach resident who owned.Wight House Design for 10 years Her • column runs Saturdays Join the thousands Of thrillftl patients who have discoverftl better vision at laserCare.

That's a pro- gram in which loca l schools get a srnaU percentage of the saJe of products. Among the six music CDs available was one featuring music from one of the stars of the television program "Daw- sorU_Creek. • Anyone familiar with that show? It features an affalT between a high school student and his teacher And if our kids log onto the Shopforschool.com Web site, they can preVlew or buy music from "Shyne,• a 19- yeM-old rapper who was mdicted this week on three counts of attempted murder, or leer at the CD cover for something called "VA-Mon- ster Funk Party,• which fea- tures a scantily clad woman in C\ suggestive pose. As was predicted in this s~ce several months ago, this <fesperate school board has sold its moral code of conduct for a few retail dollars. I 1ust , d:tdn't think il would happen '°quickly. Added up, we have a board that cannot find Its way. And until there are answers anp unless some of the board members want to come out from biding, I cannot trust them to properly admtnlstrate $163 million rn new tax rev- enue. And yet, as usual, our ctul- l dren will suffer for the mis- takes of their elders. It uo thb sole consequence that stands rn my way of proclaimrng out- right opposition to the pro- posed tax. • It is not the students' fault that in some of our schools the bathrooms are unfit to u.sc or that roofs leak. It lS our fault and it is my fault. After all, we elect the people who were supposed to watch over these things. . Weltch for the blame game. The school board will careful- ly choose a few scapegoats on which to pin their need for more money. I expect they'll blame Sacramento, the county bankruptcy and the embezzle- ment. Some will even reach back over 20 years and chng to the last bit of blame they can place on ·Proposition 13. They'll point the hnger at anything and anyone except themselves. Leaders, on the other hand, accept responsl- bility. Not having seen enough conslStent responsible conduct by this board is why l don't trust them with the money at this time. I'd feel better If built into the tax proposal is the creation of a ~eparate panel or person wbo will oversee the spending of the tax dollars. I'd like to see the board hire someone with character and with school experience to do that. I'd like lo see them hire someone like Jim de Boom. What we've got now with a new tax proposal is a hdfldout and more fodder for the pro- voucher crowd. For this public school supporter, asking tax- payers for $163 million makes it much harder to deny them a turn at bat. • STEVE SMITH is a Costa Mesa rest· dent and frei!lance writer He can be reached at (949) 642-6086 or bye· mail at dailypllot0lat1mes.com.

Eric Askew is a colorful Newport Beach artist who lived in Tahiti and studied velvet painting with-Edgar Leeteg.· But his lifelong pass~on is keeping himself fit. By Alex Coolman n 1939, Eric Askew was living a stm- ple life in Tuhiti. He spent $4 a week on expenses, ca_ught his dinner with a fishing pole, and spent the days training as a weightlifter. The New Zealand youth -·he was in bis early 20s at the time - wanted to make it.to the Olympics. And, having won weightlifting tiUes ·in New Zealand and Austria, Askew thought he had a pretty good shot if bis Tahiti training paid off. · • Askew and bis weighUifting friend Alex Dick shipped 400 pounds of weights to the islands and set up camp. "We went over there and built a but," Askew said. "We had somebody plait the coconut fronds [for the thatched roof] and we trained there in the garden." As it turned out, the 132-pound lifter found the physical limitations of his body impossible to overcome, no matter how hard he trained. "You get to a certain level, and you don't get beyond that," he said. But the time on the tropical island bad unex- pected consequences. Though the shot at the Olympics never materialized, a neighbor, Edgar Leeteg, gave Askew· an introduction to an art · form that seemed ~cularly well-suited to cap- turing the lush Tahitian scenery: velvet paihting. Leeteg, who died in 1953, has since become a · sort of cult hero in art circles for his wor~ on vel-. ,. vet. The Huntington 'Beach Art Center presented a show of his work last February, and a Culver City gallery is featuring a "Thbute to Leeteg" group show through Jan. 31. Askew, now a wiry and energetic 83-year-old, has. a few paintings i.p. the Culver City shoy.r as well, works that showcase his mastery of the art style he learned at th! bands of the velvet king.

[. lighten up AL.Ex COOtMAN I ~Ph !N othing seemed quite so attractive · to Judith Viorst when she was young as a good. _romantic death. Her mother had often read to her Edgar Allan foe's poem "Annabel Lee," the one whose beautiful heroine ends up in "the · sepulchre there by the sea," and it seemed to her that literature couldn't get any finer or more tragic. At the age of 7, Vi.erst decided, with extreme earnestness, to embark on a career as a poet, and she modeled her early efforts on the literary example she so admired. . "If it didn't have a co~e, it wasn't a poem," recalled Viorst, who is in her 60s. "I thought of myself as a very, very seri- ous poet. I didn't think you could say any- thing in a funny way and still have it be i;erious." That lesson -that serious themes and lhumor could happily coexist -came lat-er in life for Viorst, author of the musical •Alexander and the Terrible, Honible, No Good, Very Bad Oayl" which comes to OCC on Sunday. Vlorst originally wrote "Afexander" in 1972 as a children's book, a tale whose whimsical portrayal of a particularly frus- qating day in the life .of its protagonist has sold more than 2 million copies. But between the dawn of her obses- sion with gothic demise and the develop- !Ilent of the wise, comic perspective of TODAY Author Judith Worsts ~lexander & the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad l)ayf'· comes to OCC her most famous work, Viorst spent many years trying to find a voice and a vision that somebody else would enjoy as much as she did. "I think of myself as an inspiratioh to all late-blooming aspiring writers," she said. "I never got a poem published until I was in my 30s." Viorst scribbled verse through her teen years and into college, eventually moving to New York with the belief that she would be doing •brilliant, sensitive edit- ing on the works of great writers and ~ somebody would notice this great genius in their midst .• The plan foundered as the rejection slips began to pour in. She worked at Women's Wear Daily and scribbled fash- ion columns that the editors found unpublishable. She worked for 'Ihle Con- fessions and wrote up crilne stories that the magazine wouldn't print. She wrote a couple children's books, and from all the presses she consulted the response was unanimous: no thanks. It wasn't until she had wallowed in this rejection for a while, got married and · abandoned New York for life in Washing- ton, D.C. that Viorst's literary career final- ly began to gel. A stringer position with the New York Herald Thbune led to her printing poems in New York Magazine - poems that maintained a light tone rather than dwelling on •this death and desire, crumpled-in-the-comer stuff I was always writing," Viorst said. Since that time, a touch of humor has brightened Viorst's work, including 1.4 books for children, six collections of poems and novels and nonfiction work for adults. Thematically, Viorst continues to address issues that concerned her at the outset. U she isn't writing about beautiful ladies succumbing to terrible fates, she nevertheless remains interested in the difficult challenges people encounter in life and the ways they manage to deal with them. "I think that virtually everything I l write for adults I can write for children," Viorst said. "I think there's very little dif· ference in subject matter. Feelings of love, feelings of bate, concerns with sepa- ration and connection, fears, envies. All of that stuff is material that applies to both audiences."

"' The Bay Club's president, Henry Schleleln, who serves as the Par West Bailli provin- cial comrnandeur of the Chalne des Rotisseurs, wel- comed the new members to the gastronomic high court. Les Inductees et elevees include Lb)da Hughea, . Lawrence Higby .. Gilbert LeVasseur, Marlin IQetn Ill and Thomas Rlach. In add.t- tion, a special medal of dis- tinction was bestowed upon Ralph Gabal. The dinner cere- mony was hosted by Wllllam thews, Newport Beach thropist and physician, bis elegant wife, Ire.e.

For those not f amillar . . th the ChaJne des Rollsseurs ell of the verbiage associ-. )Jed with the club and its pur- s:s>se, here's a very brief intro- ooction and explanabon: First, iLbaim or baillage is simply a . ~trict or division, defining the Bench word. In 1248, under lie reign of St. Lows, king of ance, a royal guild of Oyers t.Lsseurs was established. · was an organization of ecutive chefs, or masters, as ey were called, who roasted e king's geese. Later, the · translated and expanded l encompass the roasting of ti! kinds of meat and fowl. I It was in fact the beginning bi a guild that would oversee ~ge and work standards, and t:lher areas of culinary prac- ~· all under royal patronege. · , The Chalne des Rotisseurs uld flourish in Europe ugh wa; and politi.cal ge for some 600 years until time of the French Revolu· Louis XIV would declare ~om from all work laws in p[l attempt to halt the coming tile of change. His efforts filled. The revolution changed B'ance and the rest of the Western world, including the ~ted States, and the Chaine . dissolved and disappeared. Fast forward some 160 ye6rs to 1950, when Europe was rebuilding following World War II.

Foi that matter, the peo- ple of the rest of the continent were not eating so well, either. To restQre the grand pnde of the French in culinary excellence, and as a. sign to the world that the ravages and shortages of war would be overcome and a new standard of excellence established, a group of Frenchmen, includ- ing Jean Valby1 considered the grand chancelier of the organization, recreated the Chaine des RotitJSeurs. Today, a half-century later, the Chaine has baillages around the world. In the Unit- e(i States, Burton Hobson, a close friend of Schielein, serves cis the bailli delegue des Etats Unis, or the president of the national conference . Here in Newport Beach, in addition to Schielein and Mathews, Dan Abbott, Darrel Anderson, Ralph Gabai, Robert Utile, Irene Mathews and David Smith serve the local chapter board with ener- gy and honor. Local members include Dick Allen, Robert Burns, Leslie Cotton, Bill Conlin, Elaine Martin. Elaine Marttn, llnda Lund, Jerry Harrington and Gayle Wldyolar, to name a small sample. · \ What is special about this organization is the cama- raderie shared by the mem- bers who gather under formal ocial calling to sample all sorts of culinary work by the full range of chefs and kitchen crews in Amenca and aroupd the world. More important, the e~perience may be the last ci~ed vestige of communi- cation and friendship shared over a meal where good man- ners and old traditions mix with new·values and ideas and old friends. This dining club was once reserved for those in the indus- try, so to speak. And today, it is still largely organized by pro- fessionals in the restaurant, hotel and hospitality business. More and more, however, new members tend to come from all walks of life, as evidenced by the induction of locals tn the Newport chapter. Tom Rlach is a developer. Lawrence IDgby is a tµgh-level financial execu- tive. Gilbert Le Vasseur is an investor and entrepreneur. With great pomp and cir- cumstance, s individuals were knigh d into the organi- zation. An oa f allegiance was cited, the a sword cere- mony and a · s sealed the brotherhood Applause came from the crowd, which sipped fine champagne in advance of the dinner of the century in Newport Beach. In honor of the millenniwn and as a tribute to the well- known chef of the 19th centu- ry, Auguste Escoffier, Schielein and his chef, Jean- Pierre Elgenheer, recreated the dinner served by Escoffier on the occasion of the New Year's Eve celebration in 1899 at The Carlton Hotel in Lon- don. Irene Mathews served as the chanrung hostess of the affair, ensuring a perfect din- ner on tables set with red ros- es and crisp white linens. The dinner began with salade beaucaire, a mix of cel- ery, endive, smoked duck, apple, beet, chevril and tar- ragon. A Billecart Brut Rose wine WdS served with this first course.

To cleanse the pallet, a sor- bet de groseille et Porto (a red currant sorbet) with a smooth port wine followed. Toumedos de boeuf Lili, a filet of beef with duck liver, mushrooms and truffle sauce, was present- ed as the main course with a Roty .Channes-Chambertin 1992 wine.

Then ari intensity comes ,..., into his eyes, and he adds a caveat: "But there are a few tricks.·.· What those tricks are, : Askew refuses to disclose. Leeteg is said to have worked with a very limited palette, USing only six colors · and white, and reportedly spent many days applying lay- ers of pigment to achieve the luminosity of his work, accord- ing to ~Leeteg or Tahiti," a f book by John Turner and Greg Escalante. .. But Leeteg wasn't fond of I ·sharing specifics about his . technique. "He was very I secretive about it," Askew I said. "Wh.en people would 1 come into his house, he used 1 to cover his stuff." : Askew doesn't cover his I own velvet canvases today, 1 1 but he.does decline, ever so politely, to explain how he I created them. L Velvet poses special chal- lenges to painters because it dulls pigment and is difficult to rework. But some contemporary artists-Juliari Schnabel arid Peter Alexander are perhaps the most promment cxampl -have embraced the maten- al for the richness of its black- ness and, to a certain extent, for the nchne_s of its camp appeal. ·niere's this whole Lvelvet] art movement that seems to definitely be taking place of sort of younger hipster artists,• said Escalante, who co-curated the Leeteg show in Huntington Beach. Escalante said be met Askew soon after last year's show closed. ·we kept hoping that someone like that would sur- f ace so we could get some new inf onnation • about the birth oJ the art form, Escalante said. Askew's style is similar to that Leeteg practiced, and his work in the Culver City show -in one painting, a young woman swims through the ocean, a freshly killeq fish impaled on her spear -treats many of the same tropical themes. But there are differ- ences between Leeteg's work and the paintings Askew went on to produce. Where Leeteg was famous, or perhaps notorious, for his emphasis on bare-breasted island beauties, Askew's most characteristic work treats a subject that bas long been close t-o his heart: pumping iron. The walls of Zuver's Gym Equipment in Costa Mesa were once graced by an enor- mous-velvet mural Askew cre- ated. Cl"'!!R ... !.!•• I~ Mo scow -St. Petersburg c i.

M Now all those guys, every sirlgle one ·of them, are dead.• _ DON UACH I DAllY PllOT l,,n order to avoid a similar fate, Askew keeps to a strictly vegetarian diet and engages in a whole battery of sports of the sort not typically practiced by octogenarians. "He's one of the best skiers I know,• said Bryan Barr, an Aliso Viejo resident who tack- les the slopes with Askew. ·Erle Askew ~VS the key to fitness ls to eat only fresh fruits and vegetables. . The work consisted of 14, 6-foot-high portraits of some of the sport's greatest muscle men, their bulbous pectorals and fierce some deltoids ren .. dered m vivid flesh· tones against the~ darkness of the velvet backdrop. "The black velvet makes it look good because you get depth,• Askew explained. The Weightlifting Hall of Fame iii York, Pa., aj.so has featured some of his velvet murals. Askew eventually went on to do a number of works in what might be called the "cowboy• vein. These paint- ings, on standard canvas, fea-. · ture bucking broncos and mysterious strangers wander- ing through the dust ol West- ern landscape. The motivation Cor these works, Askew said, was eco-· nomic. When cowboys were in vogue, he painted cowboys. When velvet painting was • popular -its original, non- ironic heyday happened about 30 years ago -it was velvet paintings that he produced. _ •pacific Bamboo and Rat- tan used to buy and sell my stuff,• Askew said. •Then the phase for velvet sort of peaked, arid I got back into doing regular painting, which I liked better ariyway. • ~at has stayed consistent -in Askew's work, no matter what the style, is an apprecia- tion for physical exuberance. Whether he paints a flexing strongman, a leaping horse or a pirouetting dancer, he paints with the eye of a man who enjoys the grace and power of physical perfection. And Askew, though h~ is not the strapping weighUilter he was in the 130s, still works to keep his own body strong and graceful. ·rm 83 and pam-free, • he declares, strolling around his living room. A red flannel slurt hangs from his thin shoulders and a pair of brown slacks wrap around his legs. As he discusses his fitness program, •I Just wish that I grnw to be that old. He's full of energy. I mean, he's got more energy thdil me or my wife, and we're in our 40s, • Barr said. Askew is also an avid windsurfer. He frequently cruises in the waters of Lake J lodges and around Newport Beach. ln the past, he also used lo be a regular at surf spots like Blackie's. Wh.at eventually drove him away from the sport was not the physical exertion involved but simply the fact that the waves• begari to get crowded, and it became difficult to get a prop- er workout. •As you get older, one of the key things is you have to exercise on a regular basis,• he says. The sedentary approach is ell.so an option, Askew admits, but that's never been his style. He isn't trying to make it to the Olympics any more and he's a long way from Tahib, but that doesn't mean he plans to stop training any time soon.

His challenges in coping with a bead full of chewing gum and a lunch with no dessert are not so far removed, Viorst said, from the struggles adults face in lives marked by divorce, death and suffering. The difference, she said, is that m the musical, the goal is primarily to provide pleasure for the audience, to emphasize laughter rather than the morbid spint of Annabel Lee "You're telling a story that you hope will entertain and captivate kids," Viorst said. •If you have some other messages, they're there without your bitting them on the head."

DAVID JAMES Costa Mesa School bond measure must be passed The discussion about the schools and their condition in the Newport- 4Mesa District is amazing to me ("Passing school bond is a tough prospect,• Jan. 3). Of course the bond measure must be passed. Whether we have chil- FEEDBA(K dren attending the schools or not (we don't; ours are grown) is immaterial. The issue is, do we want the children to go to adequate schools, learn properly and become . good, functioning adults so. they can pay their taxes? Of course we dol The issue of the bond is extremely in1portant. Most of us have money to eat out in restaurants, to go on vacations and to do things that are personally exhilarating to us. It is time to think about the children. I hope everyone votes positively on the bond. MIRIAM GOLDBERG Newport Beach Ra.Stor·s letter about homosexuality was wrong It's unfortunate that a pastor would write such an uninformed and misleading letter as Dr. Gary · Barmore ~.::.Aa:eptance of others 'lS Ch.ristlail way," Dec. 18). He wrote that some are •created natu· rally homosexuat. • Well, homosexu- ,r .. ,. ~ rty is about as natural as trying to eet through one's nose. He states twice that Jesus said nothing abOut homosexuality. That iS false. Yes, Jesus lS loving and compas- stonate. He said to the woman tak- en in adultery, •Neither do 1 con- Clemn thee: go, and sin no more.• You c@ love someone and still dis· approve of their behavior. U you love a drug addict or alcoholic, you try to help them stop before it's too . late. So, we need to love the homo~ sexual by encouraging them to give up that Westyle before it's too late. JEFF OSTBY Newport Beach Talks must include 19th Street bridge I would like to comment upon the column m the paper today regarding the communication between the West Side and City Hall ("Latino concerns to be addressed," Jan. 5). The City Coun- cil, by denying the residents of Cos- ta Mesa and specif1c4lly the West Side to even have an option of look- ing at the extension of 19th Street to the beech, shows how out of touch the City Council iS with the needs of the West S1de. And it just reflects poorly on their ablli,ty to tty to understand all of the issues on the West Side. ROIOT GRAHAM.

January 8, 2000 Al7 EDITORIAL Comicil should side with the people"'----· T he people's right to take a measure to the voters by gath- ering enough valid signatures is the foundation -upon which democracy is built. Political causes -no matter how noble -are not always endorsed by the lawmaking body, whether it be the state Legislature or the local city . council. That is why the peti- tioning process exists. So withottt weighing in on the merits or potential short- comings of the controversial Greenlightinitiative,we believ.e it should be allowed on the ballot. The small group of com- munity members made up of both environmentalists and resident activists spent sever- al months gathering signa- tures for the petition. The measure, if passed, would require public votes on devel- opment projects that ¥.'.Ould generate more than 100 peak-hour car trips, create more than 100 homes or add more than 40,000 square feet of floor space over what the general plan allows for a.giv- en area. At least 10,000 people agreed with that premise an ·signed the petition. The 6,800 ~arnes required to put the ini- tiati.Ye..on the ballot were vali- dated by the Orange County Registrar of Voters. The city clerk is the desig- nated election officer for the city. Newport Beach's La Vonne Harkless checked the petition for its compliance with the state elections code before sending it to the coun- ty registrar for certification. She has maintained that -under normal circum- stances -as long as the sig- natures are validated, the City Council must set an · e lection date.· But the Greenlight case iS not normal because the city attorney was asked to review. the petition after the city clerk had already accepted it. Now the deos1on on whether to send the Greenlight pro- ponents back to the drawing board appears to be up to the City Coi.J.ncil, which usually would not have a say in the matter. Is that the way democracy should go? · Shouldn't the signatures of 6,800 Newport Beach res- idents and the cily clerk out- weigh the opinion of one city attorney? We do understand the city's caution. As we know, initia- tives often end up in court and the city could be held liable for sending a faulty · petition to the ballot box. Ifot what they shouldn't forget is that it could easily go the olher'way. Initiative proponents could and proba-· bly would sue the city for rejecting a viable petillon. We trust that because the city clerk sent the petition to the registrar in the first place, she was confident that - although it was clearly not perfect -there was no fatal flaw. We urge the counctl to stand behind her judgment and side with 10,000 New- port Beach residents. New Harbor Center draws mixed reviews • AT ISSUE: The renovated Harbor Center, which opened its largest tenant, The Home Depot, this week ("Harbor Center comes to life," Jan. 5). I live on College Drive and was one of the initial members of the Neighbors of the Harbor Center. I see the opening of the Harbor Center as something fearful. We . have survived a year of assault witlf dirt and dust that literally scoured the pa'int off our cars and our windowsills and covered our plants. We have heard all of the noise of construction, and now-Ole Harbor Center will open at 6 a.m. The traffic from people bringing goods in goes directly behind our wall. This is a great concern apart from the noise -the visual assault. READERS RESPOND We back up to the center, and those on the other side of the street face the center. Stand on their front steps. Every time those people come out of their homes they are assaulted with the cement walls of the buildings. Some people in some sections of town receive great sympathy if a tree obstructs their view. We have these prison walls that are a visual assault. And I don't believe any members of the Planning Commission or the City Council realized just how great that visual assault would be. I am also very concerned about the traffic. I noticed that finally there is a direct sidewalk access along Wtlson. That has been closed off at various spots all during con- struction, so somebody going along · there with small children is told in the middle of the block -far, far from any crosswalks-•do not pro- ceed further.• I think signage should have been put at crosswalks to let people know that further on down the block that this would be a problem. Of course I rejoice ii the city feels that it is going to increase its tax base, but at what a cost. The cost was ours. KATHARINE BEQUmE Costa Mesa I think the new Harbor Center will definitely improve the area, and it is coming together just fine. I can't wait unW it is finished so that I can go shopping there. I have already been to Rite Aid, KIM HAGGERTY-lYUUS I DAILY Pl.OT ·Kevin Kneedler puts up letters at the new Albertson's grocery store at Harbor Center in Costa Mesa. and I am looking forward to the opening of Home Depot and Albert· son's market, as well as all the other stores. ELEANORE TRIGHER Costa Mesa In response to your request for feedback regarding the newly reno- vated Harbor Center, I would just like to say: What a waste of prime retail space! Not to mention the nw- sance and inconvenience it has and will continue (to a greater degree) to impose on the surrounding resi- dents. I happen to live approxunately 20 to 30 yards from the' new·Home Depot. I am one of the forgotten and discounted residents. J live in an apartment, and I've been here for three years. I believe the only reason the developers were able to get this center built 1s because the property is surrounded by apart- ment-dwellers, and very few home owners live close"entsilgh to po e a threat of protest to the deSign. On the other hand there are probably · close to a thousand apartment- dwellers who were probably expected to •just move away" if the center was an inconvenience, only to be replaced by new residents who would have to accept the cen- ter smce 1t was there pnor to their arrival. This •new• center is much too industrial for this residential area. Most of the new stores are redun- dant and unnecessary. This residen- tial area has no need for another •1umbcryard," nor did it need . another supermarket. This area already has more supermarkets per square mile than anywh~re else on Earth. I alSo think the •day labor" problems that will soon start daily at The Home Depot will be another salute to poor planning. I thank God •Nick's" is still there. Maybe it's timo to •just move," but then where would l get great pizza? It's a tough call. DAVE LAW Costa Mesa The new Harbor Center is as yet unfirushed and.has already caused . financial strru.n on Costa Mesa tax· payers, who will now have to pay $75,000 annually to open the Job Center doors every Sunday, because of the expected overflow of day laborers expected to line up looking for work near the new Home Depot at the completed Harbor Center. Whatever happened to Sunday being the day of rest1 Costa Mesa council has no right to run the Job Center seven days a week. It is not the taxpayers' duty lo provtde the Job Center.

HJc:tlARD DUNN Known as the •Boxing llllli Professor" in the 1111111 1930s, George Latka covered every spectrum of the ring in his illustrious career, which spanned seven decades. As a fighter (amateur and professional), referee, instructor and, at times, an actor in boxing movies, Latka has never seen a punch he couldn't take. "I'd say I was an exceptionally good defensive fighter,• Latkct said, when pressed to describe his specialty in tbe ring as a 5-foot-6, 135-pound lightweight. After a long career that included 159 amateur fights and 55 professional bouts, Lalka hung up his golden gloves in 1944 and became a referee for 30 years. . · earned bis nickname the "Boxing Professor" when, as a student at San Jose State on a · boxing scholarship, he became the boxing coach at the University.of Santa Clara. "I'd say fighting four fonner world champions, and not losing to any one of them, is as good as it gets, .. Lalka proudly said of his boxing highlight. Lalka, who once judged a Muhammad Ali-Ken Norton heavyweight bout in the 1970s, was instrumental in helping to launch the boxing program at Costa Mesa-based Save.Our Yollth m 1994_. It wasn't a long stint at SOY, but Lalka helped kids stay off the streets and out of gangs by teaching them a competibve spirit and the fundamentals of boxing. As a professional', Latka's contract was owned by movie star George Raft. Lalka 's only disappointment is tbat he never got a title fight, but be faced four former world champions, including Sammy Angott, and never lost. George Latka "Some of those kids could've been top-notch fighters, but I was runrung out of gas, spend.mg too much time there," Lalka said. ·1 loved the organization; it was great." Latka, born in Lalka, who fought Angott to a "controversial" draw in San Francisco, also went toe to toe with former world champions Willie Pep, Petey Scalzo and Richie Lamos. His last fight (and victory) came in 1944 against Lamos, the 1941 National Boxing Association featherweight champion. When Uitka fought Angott to . a draw, it was a non-title fight, · but at least one San Francisco-based sportswrtter thought Lalka had won. ·1 got a newspaper decision,• Lalka sa.id . •sack then, the newspapers really covered boxing well and their decisions carried a lot of weight." Lalka, who lost only five pro fights in his career, also fought in the first televised bout against Jimmy Garrison from the Hollywood Legend Stadium in 1940. It was during television's experimental stages. Previously, fight fans could only see .__,__,.,ghlights on a newsreel at theaters. Lalka, who later played bit roles in movies such as "Matilda" and "Raging Bull/ Kalamazoo, Mich., and raised in Pueblo, Colo., is part of the Daily Pilot Sports Hall of Fame, celebrating the millennium. It's the fourth hall of fame of which Lalka is a member; he's also m the World Boxmg Hall _ of Fame (based m Los Angeles), Orange County Sports Hcill of Fame and San Jose Sldte Athletic Hall of Fame. Latka, an 85-year-old Huntington Beach resident, was named Senior Citizen of the Year in Huntington Beach five years ago and rode in the oty's armual Fourth of July Parade. Lalka was born Nov. 12, 1914, as the 10th of 12 children, and is the only sibling still alive. His parents emigrated from Czechoslovakia to America and ,worked in the steel mills, including the largest in the West at the time in Pueblo. · ·1 had a great boyhood," said Latka, who would hunt, fish and swim, while growing up Wlthi.n eyeshot of Pikes Peak m Colorado. Lalka and bis wife, 1\"udie, are inseparable these days. Lalka has two children and 22 grandchildren or great grandchildren.
