LA JOLLA -Newport
Beach 's Paul Salata, who has
endeared himself to the commu-
nity in .so many relevant ways,
found himself at another plateau
Friday night when he was given
a Lifetime Achievement award.
The distinguished award
came from the NFL Alumni
Association during its "Evening
with the Legends Dinner " at the
Torrey Pines Hilton.
"There may be
somebody more
deserving than I , but
none will appreciate
this more than I do."

brothers and their wives, and a
host of others. Among them were
longtime pals of Salata, includ-
ing George Yardley, Newport
Beach's basketball Hall of
Farner, Olympic diving legend
Sammy Lee and former Los
Angeles Times and Orange
County Register sportswriter
John Hall.
"There may be somebody
more deserving than J, • said
Salata, "but none will appreciate
this more than I do.•
Salata, in a style unlike his
usual happy banter, said, "The
game is more important than
teams or individuals. It's the
industry that counts, as opposed
to agents and egos.·
Also singled out by the NFL
Alumni for ·Leather Helmet·
The 73-year-old Salata,
founder of the infamous Irrele-
vant Week in Newport Beach,
was honored by the Fort Laud-
erdale, Fla.-based alumni group
for bis accomplishments on and
off the field -most n otably his
time-honored Irrelevant Week,
which has toasted and roasted
the last player chosen in the
annual NFL Draft for nearly a
quarter-century.
With Salata were his wife,

'MORAL OF
THE STORY
/
Cindy Trane
Christeson
Miracles happen ·
when you believe
•The sense of wonder at the compas~ .
slon of God causes one to look at others
with the same sense of love and care.•
-John Yates
I f you put 125 business, social and
civic leaders together for more than
10 hours per week for almost three
months, what wDuld you get? A semi-
nar? No. A plan for redevelopment?
Not hardly. '
What you get, and what I thoroughly
enjoyed watching last week, was a musi-
cal comedy called "CHOC Follies IV,
Fabulous Fables and TWisted Tales.•
CHOC Follies is a charity benefit for
Children's Hospital of Orange County,
and since its debut four years ago, the
annual event bas raised more than
$500,000 for the hospital.
I go to CHOC Follies every year for
two main reasons: my friends. The first
friend is Stephanie Bond -who has a
heart of gold and a voice destined for
platinum. With her show-stopping voice,
she has been in the show for three years.
• 1 want to use the gilts and talents
that God gave me to benefit others,•
Stephanie said. "I love it. I love the peo·
pie and I love that I can sing and bring in
money for the children.
·I also love see mg successful people
want to give back to the community. I
think people are surprised at the level of
talent when you consider that so many of
them are not normally on stage.·
She's right. From the moment the cur-
tain rose to the finale, I was impressed by
the cast members, as they entertained us
with songs and portrayed characters from
fairy tales and cartoons.
The second friend is CHOC itself. I'm
sad to say that my sister, Marty, and her
husband, Dave, spent more time at
CHOC than they care to remember, but
they do recall bow wonderful the people
were.
·They were like family,• Marty said.
·Tuey helped us get through a horrible
experience in the most gentle way possi-
ble.·
When Marty and Dave's son, David,
was just 9 months old, he ended up at
CHOC, critically ill with congestive heart
failure and double pneumonia.
David was there for three weeks, and
he returned again two years later for
open-heart surgery.
"Everyone was wonderful and did an
exceptional job. We feel very blessed to
have received such quality care,• Marty
said.
Today, David is a delightful 15-year-
old and is active in school, sports and
church .
At the follies, near the end of the per·
formance, a handsome young performer
named Andrew Cipolla spoke eloquently
about what CHOC means to him.
•I spent eight years at CHOC battling
leukemia,• he said. ·c HOC is the peo-
ple. CHOC is the nurse who held me in
her arms when I was 10 yea.rs old, when
I had a bad night. CHOC is the doctor
who gave me her home phone number in
case I needed to call. CHOC is the nurs·
es who cried when I left the hospital.
"Thank you for playing a role in sav-
ing other Andrews like me.•
It took awhile for me to realize the
clapping had stopped and another song
begun. A phrase m that song captures so
much of the meaning behind the perfor-
mance, and it is the phrase I will close
my column with today: •There can be
miracles when you believe.•
And you can quote me on that.

Nations, Gary Haugen bas
seen some of the greatest atroci-
ties against the people of India,
Rwanda and other places where
bu.man rights are violated.on a

But, Haugen says, a strong
faith in God can provide hope

cacy for people who are
oppressed,• Haugen said.
As president of International _
Justice Mission in Washington,

Referring to the biblical direc-

•Something seems to have

•Now is a time when people in

grams.• .
While investigating the geno-

was left speechless when con-

Wwsui5 can be merited-frivolous or 'misguided'
A bout 25 years ago, I
was a starving college
student en route to the
Coliseum in Los Angeles to
see one of the best football
games ever: USC vs. Okla-
homa.
I was behind the wheel or
a car at a stop sign on a side
street off of busy Vennont
Avenue. In the passenger
seat was my friend, Mike
Thomas. A guy Ol') a 10-
speed bicyde was speeding
down Vennont and was
about to pass in front of us
when a car on Vermont start-
ed to make a left turn onto
the side street. To avoid the
car, the bike man steered out
of control and ran smack into
my driver-side door. denting
it.
About two weeks later, I
got a call from the bike
man's lawyer, wanting to
know who was re presenting
me.
•Huh?" was my reply.
It ~med that even
though I was behind the lim-
it line painted on the street,
even though I had a witness
Steve Smith
WHAT'S UP?
to the accident and even
though I bad done absolutely
nothing wrong, I was going
to be sued. And so, I had to
get a lawyer.
My lawyer described to
me bow the system worked.
It didn't matter that I was not
at fault -I had assets.
"But I don't have any
assets: I said. "I have to
borrow money to go to col-
lege!"
·wrong,• he said. "You
have auto insurance. That's
your asset."
I was about to be sued not
because I did anything
wrong, but because it was
allowed and because a
lawyer thought I bad auto
insurance -something for
which to sue.
My lawyer told it to me in
plain English: lawyers don't
sue people without assets.
Now we come to the case
of a Costa Me~ preschool
into which Steven Abrams js
alleged to have deliberately
driven his car and 'killed two
children, Sierra Soto and
Brandon Wiener.
lh recent days, threi! read-
ers have taken me to task for
my wonder ove.· the lawsuits
filed by the families of both
children.
For the record, I have nev-
er commented in this space
on the lawsuit filed by Sier-
ra's mother against the
preschool. Not one single
word have I written.
And because I expressed
dismay at the lawsuit Wed by
the Wiener family, I am
labeled by one letter write r
as a part of something called
the •tawsuit redneck"
crowd, whatever that is.
My comments of several
weeks ago on the Wiener
lawsuit induded a not-so-
veiled attempt at disgust,
should it be true that some or
all of the memorial fund to
which I and many others
contributed find its way mto
the pockets of attorneys
hired to press this case. We
sent money to a memorial
fund, not a lawsuit fund.
In one letter, someone
who presumably knows the
source of the lawye.r fees djd
not address this issue.
Another letter containecl the
line, "Lawsuits are an impor-
tant part of the checks and
balances that cause our sys-
tem to be near perfect.•
Well, I'd like to make the
legal system even closer to
perfect by offering one
tweak: loser pays.
It's simple. You want to
sue me? Fine. But if you lose,
you pay the bills for my legal
services, too.
I grew up watching Ralph
Nader take a dangerous car
off the street. I saw other
attorneys sue to compensate
workers who handled We-
lhreatening products without
proper protection from their
employers and who sued to
keep the same damage from
happening to others.
There was something
nearly noble about those
times and those lawswts and
for a while, I wanted to be a
lawyer, to defend and fight
for the little guy.
But it's different now. The ·
sad consequence or the
preschool accident is that the
weapon ot choice used by
the accused was a car. Had
the children been outside,
behind a car-proof fence, it
would not have prevented
anyone from hurting the chil-
dren if he was determined to
do so -with either a gun or
a knife.
There are lawsuits and
there are frivolous lawsuits.
This case is neither. I believe
these lawsuits fall into a third
category called ·misguided·
lawsuits.
Yes, a Judge may deter-
mine that the lawsuits
against the preschool are
frivolous or rrusgwded. but
the preschool will sb..Ll be left
with legal bills.
And smce the high
ground seems to be domg
what is Just, I suggest we set
an outstandmg precedent for
the nabon right here in town
·and have the plwntiffs agree
that if the preschool is found
not guilty of any neglJgence.
they'll pay lhe school's Legal
bills.·
But the Back Bay will be a
cement slab before that ever
happen.$. .
One of1he poor choices I
made in my young and stu-
pid days was to save money
by not buying auto msw-
dnce. After lhe bike man htt
my car, a letter was sent to
bJs attorney stating thJs fact
and requesb.ng the new legal
status of theu pending law-
suit. We never again heard
from the bike mdn.

Critics of the development
are most concerned about the
hotel's conference facility.
They say people entering and
leaving conferences there
would clog nearby streets with
traffic.
But traffic increl)ses would
be negligible, according to
traffic studies prepared for
the city by independent con-
sultants.
Some residents aren't con-,
vinced the traffic data i's
accurate.
Others, ·including Ayres
Boyd -a spokesperson of a
newly -formed coalition com-
prising representatives from 11
homeowners' associations -
said they've been left out of
the planning process.
•This whole project hasn't
saturated the community until
rather recently,• Boyd said.
•When it gets closer to the
deadline, you have to act•
The group, known as the
Special Committee of Associa-
tions, believes the project is too
large for the area. Its members
have met r~ly for five
weeks to discuss • the project

lying under a bomai tree.
To imagine looking up
through the horizontal
branches, feeling the
gnarled trunk with ow fin-
gers.
Just for a moment, trans-
porting us into another time
and place. A simpler time
and place. A Lilliputian
under a Grand nee. A child
under a Monterey pine. A
voyeur into a secret and
magical world.
This is lhe true appeal of
bonsai.
The art of bonsai is a
Japanese gardening tech-
nique that produces minia-
ture specimens of shrubs
and trees. Bonsai were cre-
ated more than 2,000 years
ago in China in an attempt
to replicate natural oddities:
infrequently a tree in the
forest will become dwarfed
because of root-binding
conditions.
In China, these tiny trea-
sures were regarded as a
magical phenomenon.
Many of the Chinese elite
attempted to copy the con-
ditions necessary to produce
these small wonders.
In the.15th century, the
technique was introduced
to Japan, where it has
enjoyed great appreciation
and enthusiasm. The
ancient form of training
and miniaturizing healthy
trees and shrubs in con-
tainers is receiving kudos
in the Western world, as
well.
'lhle bonsai aficionados
have been around for years,

extolling the virtues of the
Oriental technique.
Ben Oki, curator of the
Japanese Garden at the
Huntington Library in San
Marino, is a bonsai master
and has been a bonsai con-
sultant for years. He tours
the country, speaking about
bonsai as well as the art of
arranging stones in outdoor
gardens and ikebana, the
minimalist art of arranging
cut flowers. He also
designs private gardens for
clients.
One of Oki's specialties is
using California junipers in
a rugged free-form style by
fast wiring to achieve hori-
zontal branches, and root
pruning to limit growth.
Bonsai was used fre-
quently during the Arts and
Crafts movement in the ear-
ly 1900s. Many of the
Craftsman-style homes and
buildings incorporated
Asian influences into their
interior and exterior
designs.
Bonsai trees can be
deciduous or evergreen and
generally range in height
from 2 inches to 4 feet.
Bonsai literally translates
into •tray-planted.• They
are kept small by pruning
the tops and roots, creating
a balance of the two.
Branches are pinched and
occasionally wired to
achieve horizontal branch
growth.
Bonsai are intended to
have a mature look, with
trunks that are weathered
and gnarled, with roots
twisting upward•above the
soil.
The only elements of a
nsai that are not reduced
in size are the naty.ral flow-
ers and fruits of tpe plant.
•Bonsai is a 9ever-end-
lng thing," say,S Bob Harris,
president~f e Bonsai
Society of S Lou.i . •A tree
is never f , shed. dnce you
achlev~fte shape you
want, you must maintain it
and keep the plant
healthy.•
Harris continues "bonsai
are the most pampered of
plants. They are watered
daily and frequently fertil-
ized. The pruning allows
the tree to fill out and opens
it up to get more sunlight
and air.•
Bonsai can live hundreds
of years in pots. In Japan,
these horticultural family
members are passed down
Crom generation to genera-
tion.
Plants with small leaves
are the best candidates for
bonsai. Small, leafed box-
wood, junipers and azaleas
are all popular candidates
for the bonsai process.
Bonsai can range from
$10 for a young plant to
thousands of dollars for an
old, well-maintained speci-
men.
Harris encourages begin-
ners to start with a 3-inch
potted plant. Prune the
inside of the plant to expose
the trunk. Keep branches
that grow horizontally and
selectively trim them to give
them the appearance of a
mature tree.
Harris likes to plant five
or six of the same plants in
a shallow tray to give the
appearance of a small for-
est. He uses regular potting
soil, only an inch or two
deep, and covers the soil
with sphagnum moss. He
recommends placing the

· T he Costa Mesa Kiwanis Oub had Mike Mur-
phy, director of aitema:
tive programs and student ser-
vices for the Newport-Mesa
Unified School Disbict, speak
at a recent lun~eon meeting,
where he discussed the men-
tor program, Helping One
Student to Succeed (HOSTS).
Murphy himsell volun-
teers an hour a week at the
HOSTS program at Whittier
Elementary School. After
bearing the talk, 1 became so
inspired that I signed up to
be a mentor as well. I begin
my HOSTS training at 3:15
p.m. Tuesday.
The following account of
the talk was featured in the
April 6 edition of Anchor
Watch, the publication of the
Newport-Balboa Rotary
Club. It was written by
Anchor Watch scribe Roger
McGonegal, reprinted here
with his permission:
Members of the Newport-
Balboa Rotary Club met
Wednesday night al Whittier
~ool to learn more about a
new mentoring program.
They were greeted by the
staff from Whittier school,
including Sarah Markel, pro-
gram director of HOSTS; Pat
Jim de Boom
COMMUNmES & CLUBS
RothrOck, assistant director;
Sharon Blakely, principal:
Jan Marquardt, assistant
principal; and Mike Murphy
from the district office.
Markel explained that
HOSTS is the largest and
oldest structured mentoring
program in the nation, found-
ed in 1971, is active in 47 ·
states and trains more than
90,000 mentors each year.
The Whittier program
began three months ago and
serves 44 second-grade stu-
dents with 37 mentors from,
among others, UCI, Hoag
Hospital, the Los Angeles
Times, the Costa Mesa Police
Department and Honor Soci-
ety members from Newport
Harbor High School.

The mentor and student
meet for one hour each
week, working on reading
skills and following an indi-
vidual tailored lesson plan.
There is a screening and
testing process for students,
and mentors receive individ-
ual training as well. The ses-
sions are conducted a\ ttie
HOSTS facility, which Rotari-
an H,nter Cook nGled, has a·
feeling of fun and learning.
Th~ HOSTS program at
Whittier is Ute result of a fed-
eral grant of $500,000 !or a
three-year comniitm~t. On
Tuesday, after only three
months .of ~g the pro-
gram, it received an wexem-
plary# rating by visitors from
the HOSTS national head-
quarters. Such a high rating
is usually achieved after sev-
eral years, McGonegal noted.
Mentors are needed.

honors were the well-traveled
Len Dawson, most commonly
remembered for his endeav-
ors as a quarterback for the
Kansas City Chiefs, and one
of the finest to ever play the
game as a Los Angeles Ram,
David "Deacon• Jones.
The bio joins d.rdes that
defy the imagination in the
world or professional football.
Among this group honored
over the past 23 years are Red
Grange, George Halas,
Bronko Nagurski, Johnny
Unitas, Ollie Matson, Jim
Brown, Bart Starr, Vince Lom-
bardi ... and, well, the list goes
on and on, and continues this
year with Dawson, Jones and
Paul Salata.
A recipient of a Lifetime
Achievement Award from the
Orange County Sports Hall of
Fame, as well as a member of
the Daily Pilot's Sports Hall of
Fame, this latest conquest is
but another stepping stone for
the indefatigable Salata,
despite his •retired• status.
The die was cast in the ear-
ly l~Os at Franklin High in
Los Angeles, where he was
student body president and
Athlete of the Year as a senior.
Salata was a receiver for
the USC Trojans, with two
Rose Bowl appearances. His
list of professional credits
include stints with the San
Francisco 49ers, Baltimore
Colts and Pittsburgh Steel-
ers, as well as the Calgary
Stampeders of the Canadian
Football League.
While his philanthropic
ways have touched many
over the years, it was the

Salata's own youth was at
the core of this endeavor. As a
12-year-old with six brothers,
he sold newspapers on a cor-
ner in Los Angeles as his fam-
ily scratched its way to suc-
cess.
It was not long after his
football career that he found
his niche in the business
world, not only making it in a
big way, but having a great
time doing it with a unique
sense of humor, working over-
time to tickle everyone's fun-
ny bones.
A Linda Isle resident and a
Balboa Bay Club governor,
Salata continues his daily
repertoire of making others
feel good and bringing con-
stant positives to Newport
Beach and its surroundings.

the shoe was on the other foot

BREAK
CONTINUED FROM A 1
group d break danoers who
meet each week at a commu·
nity center to teach each other,
new moves and practice rou·
tines.
Occasionally, the Naughty
Boys challenge other crews in
break dancing,. •battles.•
Crowds of spectators deter·
mine the winner by applaud·
ing the showiest moves, most
unlque styles and the best
teamwork.
Watching the Naughty
'Boys practice routines .-and
exchange moves is witnessing
folk an -dismissed by pop culN,{~' in the late 1980s as a o~tliig novelty or trend -as
it is passed a.long.
Break dancing was born in
the schoolyards and street cor·
ners of the Bronx in the 1970s.
Its historians -many break
dancers, including Ramirez,
know hip-hop history like
baseball fans know statistics
-say its birth coincided with
the d evelopment of rap music,
graffiti art and deejaying.
But while rap music and
deejaying thrive in main·
stream, suburban America,
break dancing has remained
relatively underground.
Spiky-haired Luis Men-
doza , 13, was hanging out
with friends at the Save Our
Youth after-school program
when he saw, and was
unpressed by, the break-danc-
ing Naughty Boys. Six months
later, after watching, practic-
ing and eventually dancing
with the crew, he became its
youngest member.
When Lws -who unlike
the other Naughty Boys, still
looks like a boy -arrived
Wednesday, they all slapped
lus back and urged him to
dance.
#Ya no puedo; I can't now. I
hurt myself,# he said, massag-
ing his thigh -the site of a
recent break-dancing injury.
But within seconds, he was
spinning on the tattered
linolewn mat like a tea cup at
Disneyland. Hip-hop music
buzzed through the weak

Next came Destiny Merca·
do, 14, who had been break
dancing for only a week. She
peeled off her sweatshirt,
rolled down the top of her
shorts, dropped to the floor
and pretzeled her legs.
"Damn, fool! After seeing
that, I don't want to break any
more,• N.J . said, slapping
"five• with other Naughty
Boys. "Girls are natural.$.•
For hours, the Naughty

moves, but with fatherly
restraint.
"Don't do that, fool. You'll

"Kid 1\vist# Bonilla, who tried

But the true communal
spirit of the Naughty Boys was
most apparent when they
danced together. N.J. and
Ramirez llipped one another
around the mat, splitting from
each other to dance indepen·
dently, then rejoining, like an
amoeba.
Ramirez wiped sweat from
.his forehead after the exer·
cise, slapping his partner the
obligatory "five."

LIBRARY
CONTINUED FROM Al
in a spirit, I think, of goodwill on
both sides,· said trustee Patrick
Bartolic. •we're excited, and I
think they are.•
Foundation chairman ·nave
Carmichael could not be reached
for comment Friday.
However, foundation board
member Lucille Kuehn said the
protracted wrangling had simply
become tiresome. ·we want to get on with the
business of the foundation, which
is to support the library,• she said.
The two sides finally moved
toward a truce after falling out in
October over questions of fund-
ing and control.
At that time, the trustees
expressed concern over the oper-
ating costs of the foundation and
moved to take a larger role in its
operations.
The trustees went so far as to
threaten to sever ties with the
foundation and evict the organi-
zation from its offices in the Cen-
tral Ubrary on Avocado Avenue.
In January, city officials
stepped into the fray. Mayor John
Noyes held court over a series of
meetings, during which the two
sJdes aired their differences. And
City Attorney Bob Burnham
drafted the cooperation memo
that the parties have endorsed.
The memo tries •to clearly
define the respective roles that
each group plays with respect to
library functions,· Burnham said.
•Tue trustees have certain
responsibilities and duties and
the foundation has its private
entity role.·
The goal of the document; he
said, ls to ensure that •everybody
realizes where the lines of author-
ity are.•
That sort of clarity has been
sorely lacking in the long-running
dJspute, and part of the ambigui·
ty seems to be due to the complex
nature of the relationship
between the two groups.
The foundation is a nonprofit,
fund-raising organization that
exists to circumvent rules pro-
hibiting government bodJes from
raising mQDey. It is an entity dJs-
tinct from the library, with its own
set of directors.
The interaction between the
two organizatioljlS showd, 1ri thee-
ry, be a. cooperative endeavor. But
both sides admit that communJca-
tion across institutional lines has
been poor.
"When you're working cooper-
atively on a project, everybody's
doing their best to get it done,
and sometimes they slip into roles
that aren't specifically what's
called for by their charter,• said
Burnham.
Specifically. the groups have
squabbled over who should han-
dle the library's Distinguished
Lecture Series, what the nature of
the foundation's fund-raising
efforts should be, and a few other
issues.
Library trustee Catherine Sarr
said under the new agreement,
both groups will sponsor the lec-
ture series.
"The intention is to continue
running' it the way we're running
it now," she said.
Burnham said he hopes the
agreement, which reaffirms "the
distinctly different roles• of the
two sides, will prevent this kind of
confusion in the future.

other classrooms as well, but spends a
large portion of her day in the first·
grade class.
Autistic students are fully included
and work at the same pace as other
students, only leaving for special help
in certain areas, such as speech.
The program began three years
ago with a self-contained class where
stud ents were taught.communication
and. social skills, with the emphasis
on teaching them h ow to follow
teachers' instructions and how to
behave in art educational setting,
Cooper said.
After a year of being partially
mainstreamed, the p1ograrn took the
bold step of complete inclusion and
has enjoyed great successes.
One of the keys to the program's
success is that it is always changing
to fit students' needs, creating a
seamless transition for them. Next
year, several of the rnamstreamed
students who came to Paularino for
the program will return to their
neighborhood schools.
Carol Cherney, whose son Derek
was mainstreamed this year, has been
pleasantly surprised by the results.
•At first, we didn't think he'd be
able to handle it. But he has blos-
somed tremendously," Cherney said.
Derek was diagnosed as autistic
several . years ago, but as Cooper
worked with him, she concluded that
he might be dealing with something a
little different.
Derefc, they discovered, has selec-
tive mutism, an extreme anxiety dis-
order that causes him to s peak in
select situations -only when he is
comfortable with his surroundings.

Vohde n wrestled with peanut but-

Vohde n, a professional "food
technologist," worked in the Her-
shey Foods office in Pennsylvania,
trying to design a peanut butter
cup that was moist and smooth but that also
incorporated a cookie's toothsome crunch.
"How could we get that cookie in there?
What kind of cookie should we use?"
Vohden recalls wondering . "It's not easy.

Vohde n is a rock 'n' roll star.
As you might expect, the man who occu-
pied himseU with this problem year after
year and who now works at J&J Snack FoOds in Los Angeles, is a fairly reserved
and lhoughUul soul. "I'm totally introvert-
ed,• Vobden said of himself. "Totally low
key."
Not a huge star, it's true. He's not Marilyn
Manson and h e's not Kenny G.
But he's a professional perlormer, one of
the acts that goes on stage in the bars and

the uninhibited voice of a free spirit.
He 's one of the little stars in the rock 'n'

The Emerson String Quartet

performance at The Center.

Shostakovich.
In the music world, just the name
is enough to start an argument.
The Russian composer, who died
in 1975, is loved for his powerf\11 and
some times troubling work, which
built on a foun dation laid by Mahler,
Bartok and Stravinsky.
But Shostakovich's work and We
have been criticized for their rela-
tionship to the politics of the Soviet
Union . Some of his music -and
some of bis actions -are considered
lo be tainted by his willingness to
cooperate with Stalin, Brezhnev, and
other Soviet leaders.

day, there's no
easy way to dis-
miss the contro-
versy surround-
ing the compos-
er.
And in fact
the quartet does-
n't try to dismiss
it, said Philip
Setzer, who
alternates with
Eugene Drucker
as first violin for
the group.
Setzer is, if
anything,
intrigued by the
troubling nature
of Shostakovich's life. It kee~ bis
work interesting.
•1t11 very bard to judge a person,
and I think it's actually reprehensi-
ble to judge someone like
Shostakovich harshly and say
'Here's a great composer who was
really a bad man.'" Setzer said.
"He made mistakes, and he was
not perfect. But there were a lot of
people who did not make th0$e mis-
takes and who were perfect and
ended up with a bullet in their
bead."
Before his death, it was common-
ly held that aspects of Shostakovich's
work were compromised by his
cooperation with the Communist
government.
The exuberant end of bis fifth
symphony, for example, was felt to
be a sort of thickheaded anthem for
Soviet ideology.
Over time, though, views of his
work have changed Many commen-
t.aton now believe that there are
subvenive elements in compositions.

Music opens doors for many of the people
who play in local bars and restavants.
For Ted Vautrinot, who plays top-40 cov-
ers for a living, escaping from college We at
UC Santa Barbara and playing guitar in cof-
feehouses was the only way he could stay
sane. •
"I was going nuts,• the 37-year-old said
of his years struggling "to be a real person
and get a real job.
"l said 'Wait a minute. If this is the only
thing I'm really enjoying, 1 need to change

ing illustration of what can be rewarding -
and frustrating -about being a small-time
player.·
The dim room was full of diners who
were cackling in front of empty pint glasses
-people who weren 't necessarily any more
interested in paying atte ntion to Vautrinot's
act than they were at laughing uproariously
at their own wisecracks.

deeply rooted in Christie's
"T~n Uttle Indians,• wherein
the guests meet their demise

creative ways.
Director Carey Smith, who
also choreographs the lively
musical numbers, has fash-
ioned a hilarious comic gem
which gains a special glitter
from Ua Hansen's lustrous
period (1933) costumes.
Berkompas, indeed, stands
out, but several other cast
members contribute memo-
rable, and energetic, perfor-
mances. Jenna Hafner's plat-
inum blond ingenue is a total
delight, and her budding
romance with collegiate oars-
man Steve Limones is nicely
documented as the actors take
their -straight rote• assign-
ments to a high cootie level.

I am saddened by Tom Edwards'
("Tune for Plan B?" March 23)
loss of vision for the future of our
county and our transportation
needs. Tom, although well meaning
in his attempt to offer solutions for
limiting expansion at John Wayne
Airport, has forgotten or set aside
what the future needs of air trans-
portation will be for Orange County .
Let's look at the true economics
of this situation: U no airport is built
at El Toro, we, in this couqty, are left
with two options. The first option is
to ship all our future air transporta-
tion needs out of the county. This
would most likely mean using either
Ontario or LAX for passenger ser-
vice (March Air Force Base still
remains the be~t option for all cargo
transport, even with El Toro). u this is our first choice, we in
Orange County stand to lose tens of
millions of dollars in federal grant
funding for infrastructure. In plain
terms, the county that does address
(air) transportation needs gets the
money from the Feds to build better
roads, sewe:rs, freeways, offramps,
intersections, etc., because they are
the ones in need, due to the higher
volume of people using their facili-
ties. What's the likelihood our coun-
ty officials are going to kiss goodbye
all that.future additional money we
need from the federal government
to maintain our county's infrastruc-
ture? And while I absolutely agree
that we must all come together to
keep the restrictions in place at
John Wayne Airport, it is completely
El Toro will mean lower ticket fares
I invite the community to join
with my friend. Newport
Beach resident Henry "Hank"
Webe.r in promoting the benefits
of an airport at El Toro. In spite of
the passage of Measure F we
believe there will be an interna-
tional airport at El Toro.
Either the courts or the voters at
the November election will con-
firm the planning process. In any
case, we -you and 1-need to
promote the benefits of an airport
at the closed Marine Corps base.
The benefits are simply more des-
tinations available and lower fares.
In January, I needed to fly to
Minneapolis on a couple of days'
notice. The aiJfare from John
Wayne was $1,780, while the air-
fare from LAX was $389. Why?
More airlines to choose from.
While I live a couple of miles
from John Wayne, I chose to drive
to LAX to save the money. This
month, my wife Barbara needs to
fly to Sacramento for a one-day
business trip. The cost from John
Wayne was more than $450 while
it's less than $200 from LAX. Why?
More airlines to choose from.
John Wayne Airport is conve-
nient and our family uses it for as
many filghts as we can. A second
airport in Orange County would
provide the advantage of an LAX
without the added travel time, free-
way congestion and pollution. The
public needs to be reminded why
we need an airport at Bl Toro -
more destinations available and
lower fares.
All of the objections raised by
those in South County can be miti-
gated. The objections are not a
problem except in the rabid, fanat-
ical anti-airport opponent who will
not accept an airport for any rea-
son at any time. Hank Weber an<i
I have printed up at our expense
2,000 three-color bumper stickers
that say "El Toro Airport -More
Destinations Lower Fares."
They are easy to remove from a
bumper. They are available free
of charge at the Newport Harbor
Area Chamber of Commerce, Ter-
ry's Unocal 76 Station at 17th
Street and Tustin, and the Orange
Chamber of Commerce. Or call
my office at (949} 660-8665 and I
will mail one to you.
One friend recently said he
wouldn't put one on his car
because he didn't want to rui.J:i his
car's bumper. The more I thought
about his comments-, I thought
that a 25% loss in the value of his
home if John Wayne Airport is
expanded to handle our airport
traffic needs may be more expen-
sive than taking off the bumper
sticker.
Residents countywide need to
be reminded of the benefits of an
international airport at El Toro. I
challenge you to help promote the
benefits -more destinations and
lower fares.

Some~
unrealistic to
think that other
communities are
going to embrace
our air traffic
needs. Ontario for
instance is limited
in expcPlSion due
to the Air Quality
Management Dis-
trict regulations.
LAX is already
designing its
facility to address
additional air
transport needs
just for Los Angeles County resi-
dents. If they were to consider
embracing our needs, you can plan
on doubling four travel time just to
get to the airport, of waiting for
flights at higher costs and who
knows if you'll be able to park once
you do get to the airport? Camp
Pendleton keeps surfacing as a pos-
-sibility. But, there is zero interest
from the Department of the Navy.
It's not even an offer on the table.
11tl.s brings us to option No. 2,
expand John Wayne. The cost of
expanding John Wayne Airport in
today's dollars is more than $4.3 bil-
lion. That's almost two times the
cost of building an airport at El
Toro. Most of that cost is in land
acquisition and most of that land is
in the cities of Costa Mesa and
Newport Beach. That's some of the
most expensive and desirable land
and businesses in all of Orange
County, if not the entire state. That
ERIC HUTCHISON
amount also only encompasses air-
port costs. That does not take into
account f]ee~ays, city streets, sew-
ers, bridges, offramps or service
costs surround.in,g the airJ?ort for
construction at John Wayne.
Other key economic factors that
have been quietly overlooked are
the costs of the land at El Toro if it
does not become an airport.
The Department of the Navy has
agreed to clean the land (soil) to a
. specific level of industrial accept-
ability if it is to be an airport. U the
Millenniwn Plan -which is to be
parkland, commercial and residen-
tial properties -.is to be implement-
ed, the cost of cleaning the land to
residential standards falls on the tax-
payers of Orange County. This cost
alone could run into billions of dol-
lars due to the size and depth of the
dirt to be considered. This only cov-
ers the cost of the soil, by the way; it
does not begin to approach the cost
of cleaning water contamination.
Another cost that has not been out-
lined is the cost of building the
future "Great Parkn that the Millen-
nium Plan espouses. Some projec-
tions have estimated $250 million for
the park itself. And beyond building
the park, no cost factors have been
outlined for the maintenance costs of
such a large park. Some estimates
are more than $2.5 million per year
to maintain it, based on other parks
of similar size and scope. This prob-
ably means another bond issue.
which in plain terms means higher
taxes for everyone in the county.
Personally, I would rather see each
city use their bond measures to pro-
mote parks in their own communi-
ties, not some Great Park site that
few of the other cities' residents will
ever experience.
So, that brings us back to El Toro.
It's already an airport. It's the least
. cost to everyone in continuing to be
an airport. El Toro addresses our
county's future air transport needs.
The Navy supports the continuation
as an airport both in clean up and
future need. El Toro still promotes
commercial growth and encourages
new business interests to locate in
Orange County.
And here's one last little gem I'd
like to impart to the residents of the
entire county. Why not make El
Toro a profit-sharing airport that
would directly contribute dollars to
all our ailing school districts and
cities in need of better police, fire
and other city services? Those cities
most direcUy affected by the new
airport would receive greater per-
centages than those less affected.
John Wayne ·Airport goes on as it
has with the current restrictions and
revenues to the county.
It is clear we need a new vision-
ary direction. More information
needs to be shared. Measure F is
not the end. It is the beginning of
better planning. Everyone can win
with a little vision and a lot more
understanding of the potential costs
and benefits.

The invitational events begin at 5

Citrus College is just north of
ther 210 Freeway in Glendora.
Liz Morse, a senior at CdM, is
considered the favorite in a crowd-
ed girls 800-meter race and capable
of a sub-2:09 time. She boasts the
field's fastest high school personal
record with a 2:10.09, set last year.

· DAJlY PILOT
CORONA DEL MAR-ln a turnaround only
Microsoft stockholders could appreciate, the
Corona del Mar High baseball team went from
blue chip to Black Friday in a 15-6 Paci.fie Coast
League loss to visiting Laguna Beach.
Nine of the first 10 Sea King hitters reached
base as the hosts put a fiv.e-spot on the board
before all the players' fathers had arrived Crom
work.
And with sophomore starter Cavan Cuyler
mowing down Artists in search of his fourth win
in as many decisions --four of his nine stnke-
outs came in the first two scoreless innings -it
appeared as if CdM was bound for its third
high-scoring win of the week.
But, as quickly as one could say Dow Jones
industrial average, the Artists started stringing
hits together.
A hit batter, three singles and a strikeout pre-
ceded Kirk Ziegler's towering two-run home
run in the visitors' five-run third, erasing what
would be CdM's only lead.
Three straight Artist singles followed a lead-
off double; sacrifice bunt and a strikeout in the
fourth, to help Laguna Beach post a 7-5 cushion
and take the life out of the CdM dugout.
~After beating Garden Grove Monday (16-
15) and the way we played against (Laguna
Beach in a 14-3 win Tuesday), I kind of thought
we were rounding third and heading for
home: CdM Coach John Emme said. •But
then, all of a sudden, we were back standing on
second."
The Sea Kings, who had six ruts the first two
innings, had only two base runners advance
past second the rest of the way.
The hosts (7-6, 3-3 in league) scored agam to
trim the deficit to 7-6 in the fourth, but Laguna
Beach {4-7, 3-3) scored seven runs in the bfth
after two were out to make the outcome all but
academic.
·They spanked us," Emme said of the
Artists' 18-hit attack. which included at least
one rut from every spot in the lineup.
Ziegler, a junior who now has four homers.
finished 3 for 5 with five RBis and catcher Ryan
Gagnet went 3 for 5 with three RBis.
•1t looks like the old Laguna Beach team is
back,• first-year Artists Coach Mike Schubert
said. ·we were playing pretty well early m the
year and we opened league 2-0. But then we rut
a little skid.•
It's the Sea Kings who must now attempt to
put the breaks on a
disappointing performance.
·we had a great approach (agamst Laguna
starter John Verdugo) in the b.rst inning,"
Emme said. ·we were hitting hne dnves and
ground balls. But. all of a sudden. we get a lead
and everyone starts trymg to drop and dnve.
From then on, it was F-dash (the sconng symbol
for Oyout) all day long."
Only three ol the Sea Kmgs' final 18 outs
came in the air, but it was clearly not the same
attack that pushed Verdugo to the verge of
being pulled.

One of its old fans from long ago has

for a slice of entertainment that evening or
in the future.
In the early years, there was only one
movie taken of any Harbor High football

season. Th.e '44 team played all day games
~
except a thrilling game against Santa Ana
one night at the Santa ana Bowl before more
than 6,500 fans. Harbor lost, 7-6.
At any rate, the film has been shown a
number of times in the past. Then it
reportedly disappeared.
However, the last time we communicated
with former tackle Dick Harper, whose dad
filtned the grid action, he wa~ quick to
relate that the last he heard. the mm w{ls still

Dick Freeman, tailback Johnny Flower,
halfback Al Bishop, guard Rod Gould,
tackle Jim Douglas and center John Shafer.
Other solid names on the roster included
Qwncy Cass, Jim Melton, Bill Talstra, Dick
Grable, Dick Otto and Bob Durkee, Gene
Lee and Aaron Buttram.
Quarterback Miller advanced to become
an all-conference star for the Santa Ana
College Dons, then eventually transferred to
play at Tulane University in Louisiana.
It may not be on film, but one of the late
