and residents heavily lobbying city
officials.
Years ago, Pacific Drive was slated
for public transportation. The city
withheld a certain portion of proper-
ty on one side of the road in front of
each home for this purpose but, m
the end, never used it.
The properties on that side of the
street have since been landscaped.
And, while some residents would
like to use. the space to enlarge their
homes, others · fear doing so will
destroy the neighborhood.

There is no wake being
he ld by those of us who
opposed the school
bond. And as much as I
believe that the school
.board's •missing in action•
campaign tactic was a horri-
ble way to develop public
policy, the strategy worked.
That it did says more about
the low standards of voters
than it does about the school
board and sends a very bad
message to our youth.
CORONA DEL MAR -Like a

Let's face it -any lime
we get 20% of eligible voters
to the polling places to
decide on anythir\g, well,
Houston, we've got a prob-
lem.
But that figure has been
described as "high" by many
people. 1Wenty percent is not
"high.• it's shameful. And
anyone who did not vote on
the measure, either yea or
nay, has, in my opinion, lost
the rtght to complain about
the schools. ·
With the availabllity of
absentee ballots, there was
simply no excuse for not vot-
ing. The voting process is
perhaps the greatest benefit
of living in the United States,
yet, it is taken for granted by
far too many people.
This is not a new develop-
ment. In my junior year in
college, I wrote a tenn paper
titled, "The politics of the
nonvoter,• in which I devel-
oped and described a cam-
paign for public office in
which the candidate won by
turning off as many people
as he could. If it sounds
familiar, it is. But just as it
was happening those many
moons ago, it is happening
today.
I want to believe that our
two kids will be active in the
process, and without the cyn-
icism we see today, but who
knows? Cay and I have not
missed an election since we
were eligible (That's oniy five
1-+---¥4iNlflli ago. Yeahrthat's il-
five years ago) and we
always take our kids with us
into the polling booth to vote.
Right now, they just like
punching the ballot with the
big silver knob, but I know
that they understand how
blessed we are to live here
and to be able to make these
choices.
Some of the bond's oppo-
nents are reorganizing, try-

NEWPORT COAST -News of
impending fee bikes at Newport
Coast Drive and other ramps to the
San Joaquin Hills Toll Road drew
mixed reviews from the dnvers who
use the roads Friday as commuters
tried to figure out whether the 50-
cent increase was a major bummer
or a bright idea.
The tolls will go up starting July
10 as part of an effort to improve the
financial 9utlook on the roads,
which have not been generating
as much revenue as was predicted
when they were bwlt, said Orange·
County Supervisor Todd Spitzer,

OMV PILOT
0 cean critters will
take center stage
today at an "Ocean
Discovery Dayi' celebration
to be h eld at Sbellmaker
Island.
The event, a collaborative
effort by the Newport Bay
Naturalists and Friends, the
state Department of Fish and
Game and other groups, is
designed to be •a family
event,• said John Scholl, a
wildlife interpreter with Fish
and Game.
Its goal is to help adults
and kids learn a little bit
more about the diversity of
marine life in the waters
around Newport Beach,
Scholl said.
The event will feature
environmental exhibits such
as aquariums, "touch
tanks,• and . •passport sta-
tions• at which visitors will
learn about the Back Bay's
ecosystem.
The day will also mark
the debut of several new
additions to the facilities at
Sbellmaker. Eagle Scout
projects that expanded .the
wooden dock on the island
and enhanced the saltwater
circulation system in the
touch tanks will have their
first public tryout today.
In addition, a ne~y
acquired electric boat, a
donation from Marshall
Duffield of Duffy Electric
Boats, will make its maideQ
voyage around the sandy
shoals.
Sbellmaker officials hope
the boat will be useful for
getting into shallow areas
that boats with larger draws
are unable to reach -a fea-
ture that should be useful
both for giving" tours to visi-
tors and for deaning up in
the difficult-to-reach nooks
and crannies of the bay.
•A platform boat can be
used to get to these areas
where you see Styrofoam
cups and there's absolutely
no way to get there (with a
conventional hull]," Duffield
said .
Ocean Discovery Day
runs from to a.m. to 3 p.m.
on Shellmaker Island, off
Back Bay Drive in Newport
Beach. The event is free.

his death.

He was last-· seen about 100
yards offshore, after authori-

Authorities said· a jogger
found McFarland's body, still
clad in red-striped shorts, at
7:20 a.m .• near Tower 22 at
Pacific Coast Highway and

For two . days after McFar-

riam said. •our team found
that most of it was due to old
oil installations.•
Where old wells once
stood, Merriam said, the
water is now slick with pollu-
tion. "The surface of the
water is covered in every
direction, and the soil is satu-
rated along the coast.·
Part of what made the
Caspian Sea so vulnerable. at
least in the past, was that the
major area of oil mining in the
region was in Azerbaijan,
whkb was formerly con-
trolled by the environmental-
ly callous Soviet Union.
Today, Fakhim.i says, the
situation is different, but pos-
sibly even more dire. The
emphasis, for oil companies.
has shifted to Kazakhstan, a
country on the northeastern
edge of the sea.
There, he says, the oil
reserves are tremendously
rich. 1be total amount of aude
oil that can be extracted from
the region is estimated at
around 200 billion banels.
Fa.khimi doesn't object to
the idea of extracting the oil,
but thinks the companies
operating in the Caspian Sea
need to hold themselves to
higher e~vironmental stan-
dards - standards like those
in place in California.
A proposal to build an
undersea oil pipeline across
the· sea, for example, strikes
Fakhi.mi as a bad idea
because the earthquake-
prone geology of the area is
similar to that of the San
Francisco Bay area.
"Imagine for a minute that
somebody was going to build
a huge crude oil pipeline
under the San Francisco
Bay,· he said skeptically.
And. simply -in terms of
their day-to-day operations,
Fakhimi says -oil companies
need to hold themselves to the
same standards they would if
they were working off Santa
Barbara or Newport Beach.
For now, the efforts of
Fakhimi's group a re fairly
limited. He is working on a
Web site and is trying lo get
the word out to college stu-
dents, whom he finds recep·
tive to his message.
In tiffie. though, he hopes
that the Caspian will be an
issue on the minds of many.
"This is not any more a
kind of local issue.· he said.
"It's a kind of inter1Jational

Looki.ng high and low to put the right roof over your head
A s I sit at my desk to write this

the noise is self-lmpoted so I have
no one to complain to. The dog bu

gles and shake. More choices were
necessary to decide color, spacing,
materlal and warranties. The prob-
lem was that there was no single
chojce that was more correct than
another. l found that each of the
neighborhoods in our community
has had a roof evolution. In the
areas that are not dictated by
homeowners association regula-
tions, eclectic is the non-rule. In
areas that have design and material
r~uirements, like Lido Isle, the
fireproof tile theme has translated
into a variety of looks. The search
the brown was too static for my roof
line. l continued the search.
Composite tiles were next on my
Ust. I wanted a thick materlal with
some color variation. I found great
colors, and the thicker Presidential
composite was a good choice. I had
it priced out, and 1 was surprised at
how costly the composite roof was
going to be. For some reason l
thought that it might be 8 more
cost-eff~ve option. l put that
choice on the back burner.
foT several months.
My husband and I would take
walks and look at roofs. I kept my
camera in the car. I talked to roof·
ing companies to see it any new
materials were available. The pro-
ject was permanently stalled.
These men have worked long, hard
hours and they have laughed while
they suffered through the heat and
labored t2 hours or more a day.
Even though the roof is costing
approximately a year's worth of col-
lege tuition, it was time for the
upgrade.
Our roof had been showing its
years of hard service. but somehow
sinking five figures into an upgrade
was more unappealing than living
with the loose shakes, curling ridge
caps and insufficient fiashing. The
worst part is definitely paying for it,
but the selection process of which
roof to choose was almost as
painful.
style; the lines of heri~ge are a lit-
tle blurry here because basically,
there are none. The house original-
ly had wood shakes, which was
typical of most ranch-style homes.
The California Ranch bas a
chameleon-like quality to it, how-
ever. Depending on the way you
tweak it. it can pull off a variety of
different roofing materials and still
maintain its casual, sprawling form
of dignity.
. continoed. · ·
I found great composite roofs in
East Side Costa Mesa with interest-
ing col.or combinations and loads of
charm. For that cottage style of
house, composite seemed to be just
the right choice.
The Port streets have a huge
variety of roofs, depending the style
of home, or should I say remodel?
I started my study with concrete
shakes. 11lis material looks like a
shake but is actually a preformed
tile. 11lis roof would have lots of
pluses: it is fireproof and will last a
very long time. But. I couldn't find
the color variations I was looking
for. I didn't want solid black, but
l did not price out a Mediter-
ranean tile roof but after my cam-
e ra safari on Udo I found this
choice to have just as many twists
and turns ~ a shake or shingle.
The color choices are amazing,
ev~g from blond to green to
the terra cotta we are so familiar
with, and for Lido, these choices
were perfect.
Back to my dwindling list. I orig-
inally did not plan to go back to a
wood roof. My list of requirements
was odd. I wanted a material that
was not as uneven as a shake and
thicker than a shingle. I wanted the
best of both worlds: the durability
of a shake (and the warranty) and
the more trad~tional look of a shin-
gle. I went into analysis paralysis
I finally found a roofing compa-
ny with a very patient owner who
did not roll his eyes when I rolled
ou.t my list of requirements. He had
a material that was just what 1 was
looking for, and had a good war-
Tanty. The smooth-sawn shake was
more expensive than the composite
I had seen, but it was not loo far off
the mark. It was (slightly) less than
the concrete tiles and had the
tighter spacing {similar to a shmgle)
that J was looking for.
With contract signed and a
spouse in agreement, I considered
the roofing issue a nussion accom-
plished.
So. the noise continues but soon
the staple guns and the gnarly guys
will move on to their next pro1ect.
My wussy dog will be able to come
out of hiding and I can move onto

Doctors warn
seniors of heat
This summer, seniors
and children must drink
water -lots of water -
to avoid dehydrating in
the sweltenng Cahfornia
iun, local physicians said
l.n a report.
•Most people assume
lbe1r bodies will warn
them before they become
dehydrated, usually trig-
gering mten~e thirst,•
said Dr. Mark Fredrick of
the Costa Mesa-based
Talbert Medical Group.
He said severe dehydra-
tion masks the feelliig of
thirst, allowing heat
strokes and dehydration
to set m without warning.
Fredrick recommend·
ed dnnkmg a liter of
waler with one teaspoon
of salt, sipped over one
hour's lime, to combat
heat exhaustion. He also
said seniors especially
should stay indoors dur-
mg the hottest hours of
the day, and wear cotton
clothes and brimmed
hats.

HlRJNG A
MARKETING
AGENT
JTh1 best Realtors in today's
markerplace are becoming even
better about marketing the hOlllcs
they list to the public, ti well as to
other agentS who have potential
buyers.
When you are interviewing
prospective Realtors to help you
sell your home, ask how they find
buyers. Jn the past, a ~For Sale"
sign would go into the ground, the
basic information went into rhe
Multiple Listing Service, and then
rhere was an occasional Sunday
classified 1d and an "opeo house."
If the house did not sell right away,
the agent might rocommend a price
reduction. Agencs today arc
becoming much more sophisticated
and proactive about getting people
into their homes. They rely on
computers, direct mail,
tclemarlcctmg, and just pl1in clever
ideas that no one else has tried. Ask
prospective listing agents for two
dti:np-a wntttn anaJ}'Sif.ofwhat is
happening with housing prices in
your area and a marketing plan
which outlines how they would get

Egan, one of the few non-

to last year's budget meet-
ings, said he wished he had
more time to pore over the
numbers before a final vote.
•This is when responsible
citizens should speak up,·
said Egan, who lives on the
West Side. "Otherwise, it's
left up to the staff. As good as
they are, it's only their inter-

by the time the items reach
the cound.l, they're in con-

But Roeder said the bud-

for weighing which programs
the city should focus on -not
a static prescription of what to
spend where.
"While we adopt the bud-

does make decisions at every

Renee Segerstrom S legacy lives on throughout Newport-Mesa
0 n Wednelday, I WU
enjoying a luncheon at
The Clubhouse at
South Cout Plaza, orga-
nized to promote the June
22 Summer Solstice Festival
of Food and Wine benefiting
the Second Harvest Food
Bank of Orange County and
the Someone Ca.res Soup
Kitchen of Costa Mesa.
Jn the "boardroom• of
1be Clubhouse, which is a
private upstairs dining room,
my mind d(ifted from the
salutatory speeches. I stared
out the large window at the
landscape of South Coast
Plaza to the east, and I
thought to myseU how fortu-
nate I was to be alive and
enjoying the day.
Magnolia trees in blossom
mixed with tall stately
palms, their fronds moving
gently in the warm midday
sun. A peri\vinkle blue hori-
zon was streaked with weak
traces of cumulus in the dis-
tance. ·
Ever more frequently, I
find peace in such moments.
And I think the same
thoughts: How many days
do we have to witness the
beauty of nature? How many
birthday candles do we get
to extinguish? How many
Thanksgivings do we have
to sit at the table with family
and friends? How many
bugs do we have to give?
How many words are there
to share with people we
love?
The numbers are not
large. lf we are fortunate, we
may see 70 or 80 Thanksgiv-
ing tables. We may have
1,000 hugs, or 10,000 perfect
sunsets. In the infinite space
of the universe, these nwn-
bers are inconsequential.
Then I heard the news
that my friend Renee
Segerstrom had died. My
first thought was how unfair.
Renee was too young. She
had far too much to offer the
world. Sh e was a remark-
able woman who relished
the beauty of a lemon tree
with the same passion as she
forged ahead to build a
vibrant Orange County com-
munity with her husband,
Henry, and the family
Segerstrom.
Renee Segerstrom was
something of an enigma to
many. Her reserved stature,
her guarded sense of per-
sonal privacy, her keen
awareness of the responsi-
bility of her family position
tended to form a wall
around her. Yet, it was not so
much a wall to keep people
away as it was a method of
allowing a person with a
public persona to concen-
trate on those issues that
mattered most to her.
1bis was a woman of sub-
stantial glamour and grand
class who bad a strong sense
of making a difference in
her world through the pro-
jects and the people she
believed in. As testimony to
this, there are tangible
aspects of this community
that are directly related to
her purpose.
Most visible are the cul-
tural organizations she
helped establish. The crown
jewel of the extensive Jot is,
of course, the Orange Coun-
ty Performing Arts Center.

THE CROWD
"God is in the details," and
Renee Segerstrom's legacy,
in pa.rt, is certainly bound to
such an expression ·or atti-
tude.
For anyone with money
can build a concert hall,
museum or theater. Few can
create a work of art. Few
have the eye, the sensibility,
the perception to know the
.difference between the
acceptable and the extraor-
dinary. Renee knew. Some-
times others didn't under-
stand. But she knew.
And she always remained
true to her position, because
there was no such thing as
second best. •Do it right, or
don't do it at all," she would
say.
That philosophy would
extend to her relationships.
Renee would have influence
in bringing the best and the
brightest minds to Orange
County for a variety of call-
ings. She wanted the finest
architects and builders to
shape the landscape. She
wanted the most original,
talented and visionary mer-
chants to fill the corridors of
South Coast Plaza. She
wanted the most outstand-
ing artists to grace the
boards of Segerstrom Hall
and South Coast Repertory.
And she made it happen.
One of my fondest memo-
ries of Renee Segerstrom
centers on a luncheon that
unfolded in yet another local
landmark attributable to the
Segerstrom vision, The Cali-
fornia Scenaiio garden. The
occasion, several years ago,
honored the arrival of the
Mi.kimot~ Jewelry Co. to
South Coast Plaza.
An alfresco luncheon was
served under oversized
white market umbrellas. It
was all very chic, and a host
of local dignitaries,
socialites, businessmen and
politicos were on their best
behavior. ln fact, the a1fair
was orchestrated with a bit
of international pomp and
protocol, almost as if it were
a political rally between two
nations rather than the con-
summation of a business
deal between two powerful
me rchant families.
I was seated between
Renee Segerstrom and Mrs.
Mlldmoto, a beautiful

Henry and Renee Segerstrom
Japanese woman who spoke
exquisite English, but not
without some prompting.
The conversation turned to
the woman's role in busi-
ness, and specifically how
the wife of a prominent busi-
nessman involved herself in
her husband's life. Suddenly,
and unexpectedly, Mrs.
Mikimoto came to life,
expressing liberated views.
It was not really out of char-
acter, just surprising coming
from a woman wbo had
been very demure and
reserved until the important
questions were asked.
I turned to Renee so Mrs.
Mikimoto could not see my
expression, and Renee had
the exact same look
on her face as I did.
It was a look that
expressed, "Never
judge a book. by its
cover." We
laughed. In fact,
Mrs. Mildmoto
joined us in laugh-
ing at the table of
prominent folks
who did not have a
clue of why the
three of us were
chuckling in this
very proper setting.
Renee
Segerstrom was
guarded and pri-
vate, yet inside
there was the
charm of the
proverbial school-
girl with a great
sense of humor and
a joyous spirit.
When the joy came
forth, she lit up the
room with an infec-
tious personality.
That personality
combined strong
Midwest roots with
an international elan gained
through a privileged life of
travel, exposure and study.
Born in the posh Chicago
suburb of Lake Forest,
Renee Segerstrom was
indeed •of the manor born.·
Al heart she was a big-city
girl, with a penchant for the
best money could buy. She
lived a refined life on both
coasts and abroad in Paris,
where she was associated
with some of the major
design talent of the 20th
century.
In Los Angeles, her
address was Holmby Hills,
and she circulated among
the powerful and the elite .

And then, some 25 years
ago, Renee met Henry
Segerstrom, also young and
dashing, and just beginning
to create his legacy on a
major scale. The love affair
turned into marriage and the
merging of two families of
grown children. A second
marriage with diverse family
loyalties ls never sjmple for
anyone. For the
Segerstroms, the added
pressure of the community
looking glass was something
they would face together.
In the end, what really
mattered was the love and
respect they had for one
another. Renee and Henry ·
always treated each other
with great care. Wlule they
guarded their privacy, their
love was apparent, their
mutual respect a beacon for
the community to witness.
And what e wonderful
example she was as a wife,
and a woman. Only a month
ago. I sat in Renee's living
room facing Newport Bay,
joininglocalpublicist ~ade
llne Zuckerman in dis-
cussing a proposal concern-
ing a project to help unify
the Orange County charita ·
ble/social scene. We wanted
Renee to chair the effort.
Henry was there for the
meeting, a fact that I pon-
dered then and fully under-
stand today.
Renee was gracious. She
served her gourmet lemon
meringue pie topped with
fresh bemes. We sipped tea
from fine China cups. lnsh
linen napkins graced our
laps. Yet more than the
social niceties, Renee asked
serious quesbons about the
project. She wanted to know
the real heart of the matter,
how it would serve the com-
munity, how it rrught make
Orange County a better
place. All this concern, when
she probably knew she had
• little ti.me left. Henry was at
. the meeting to protect
Renee, even though VI\? did-
n't know 1t. She never let on.
Neither did he. We had no
clue that Renee Segerstrom
might not be around to
share another Thanksgivmg
table, to give another hug
and to receive one as well,
to witness many more beau-
tiful days m Orange County
What I do know and
understand is that Renee
stood for 01any things posi-
tive and We enhanong. She
brought real. demonstrative
excellence into the world.
She made people think. She
was responsible for raising
the bar to a higher standard.
She was truly loved by her
husband, her children and
grandchildren, and her
friends. I will miss her very
much, and will Uunk of her
often as we all work togeth-
• er in this commuruty to cany
on her legacy.

and frvstrations are written all
over his rubbery face. Ross con-
veys, without overstating, the
hilarious plight of a middle-age
fish-restaurant owner, desper-
ately trying to initiate love
affairs with three Temarkably
dissiDiila.r ladies.
The first_:.nd most effec-
tive-of the t.rto is the hard·
boiled, heavily New York-
accented Elaine. Beautifully
rendered by Kerri Vickers, she's
a married lady who only sleeps
with her friends, and doesn't
seem to have an enemy in the
world.
Vickers is blessed with
superb comic timing. She lobs a
volley of disarming zingers at
the prudis~ Cashman, as · he
attempts to strike up meaningful
contact in what, to Vickers'
character, is purely a one-after-
noon stand.

W hen a stage produc-
tion without tr•di-

story line can bring audiences
to their feet-not to exit the
theater, but to cheer-it's a
rare experience, and one that
local pJaygoers can avail them-
selves of through Sunday.
•The Civil War,• Winding
up its brief engagement at
the Orange County Perform-
ing Arts Center, is such an •
experience. It's hbtory-the
bloodiest, most divisivejour
years in the American expe-
ri,:qce-set to music.
Interaction is minimal. The
singers are not playing charac-
ters but represenJations. Yet
through the power of co~
er Frank Wlldhom's music,
backed by the lyrics of Grego-
ry Boyd and Jack Murphy, we
live the story via the eyes, and
ypices, of the three factions
most vitally involved: Union
soldiers, Confederate troops
and the Southern slaves whose
futures rest on the outcome.
Battle by battle, the saga of
the War Between the States
unfolds against Wendall K
Harrington's stirring backdrop
of rear-screen projections of
battle scenes, setting an
indelible tone. The actual
fighting is not presented, only
the devastating effect it
wreaks on the participants.

Council right to pci.Q.. 'cookie cutter' homes
T his past Memorial Day, we
took an afternoon stroll
through Costa Mesa's East
Side. What we saw was the stuff
of Norman Rockwell paintings.
Family picnics sprawled. out
on front lawns, kids playing
catch with dads in the street and
pint-sized entrepreneurs trying
to make an extra 50 cents with
roughly constructed lemonade
stands.
lawn baseball games and holi-
day block parties. And it's one of
the last neighborhoods in south
Orange County that isn't domi-
nated. by red-tiled roofs.
That is exactly why Costa
Mesa city officials are trying to
preserve it.
multi-home developments from
being crammed onto the lots
once occupied by larger, single-
family homes.
The decision was overdue and
should be applauded.
And council members are
doing the right thing by direct-
ing city staffers to, in the mean-
time, develop a long-term plan
to preserve the neighqorhood's
character.
Cef alia claims his proposal did
not violate q.ny ex:istittg codes.
And had he known the council
would take a stand on "cookie-
cutter" homes in the middle of
his approval process, he says he
would not have spent $500,000
on the lot on Garden Lane.
But what mak~s this neigh-
borhood even more special is
that the cozy feel is organic, not
artificially induced by a develop-
et trying to sell houses. Most of
the quaint, single-family homes
were built following World War
II. The East Side is a place that
fosters friendly neighbors, front •
This week, the City Council
enacted a temporary halt on
building multi-home projects on
a single piece of land, saying
these d~velopments are slowly
-but surely eroding the single-
family charm of the East Side.
Effective for the next 45 days,
the moratorium says any new
homes built in the city must sit
on a lot that's at least 5,000
square feet. That will, for the
time being, prevent any more
Few are disputing that the
action will ultimately be the best
thing for the East Side. But there
is an immediate difficulty in the
few proposals that will get caught
in no man's land, such as the one
proposed by Newport Beach resi-
dent Jim Cef alia that the council
rejected Monday night.
We sympathize with his situa-
tion, which is why.we would
encourage city officials to
attempt to work something out
with him.
In the meantime, we look for-
ward to the policy changes city
planners will propose in their
long-term solution for the East
Side development debacle.
After all, a neighborhood's

When reading.the sum-

somewhat disappointed and
· frustrated.
My son. Michael Gracia,
is 10 years old. We live in
Costa Mesa and be attends Marinm Elementary School
in the fourth grade.
He was born with cere:
bral palsy and is permanent-
ly blind in his right eye. He
also has serious asthma. He
had to undergo two eye
surgeries last summer. He
has many doctor appoint-
ments throughout the year.
He wears a leg brace to
school every day. On occa-
sion, he has had to wear an
eye patch to school. With all
of these restraints that he
has to address each and
every day of his life, within
his short lifetime, he has
accomplished many of the
same attributes as the major-
ity of the young people men-
tioned.in your articl~.
However, he has accom-
plished so much more as be
has succeeded with his
many detriments.
Many of his accomplish-
ments are:
• Received his black belt
designation in The Kwon Do
• Received an award in
school for h1s mathematics
skills and creative writing
skills last month

very inter-

seemed to
miss a few
very excel-

not seniors. Here is one of
many of these people.

As a member of Newport-
Mesa's 1998 and 1999 Junior
Top 103, Kristin continues lo
be a very special young
woman who quietly influ-
ences her community,
school, church and peers in
many ways. She is a very
positive person who almost
always has a smile on her
face and enjoys life to its
fullest, never dwelling on
the negative. She is a happy,
kind, gentle, honest. caring
and quiet. But she is also a
strong leader -a teenager
who is a wonderful role
model for her peers and
younger children she is in
contact with.

As a seventh-grader, in
the tailback position. he led
the Newport Mesa Junior
All-American, Jr. Midget
football team to victory in the
regional Super Bowl for the
first time in the league's his·

Newport Harbor's 49ers
T he ·gtid season of 1949
shimmers on the horiz.on
ror many members of
the aass of '50. The bulk of
that '49 squad wUl be reflect-
ing on yesteryear at its 50th
reunion July 15 at the Balboa
Pavilion.
From one angle, the '49
season actually started in mid-
summer with a tentative con-
nection between South
Pasadena Hi~h ana Harbor
High on DaVldson Field. Six
players from each team had
chosen to meet for informal
~scrimmages for a period of
time to see if 1t was worth-
while .
It seemed clear lo all that
South PaSddena, under noted
coach Ray Solari, was headed
for the Foothill Conference
title with the likes of star
quarterback Bob Garrett,
Wlilgtnan Sam Morley, strong
guard Mike Giddings and big
tackle Roger Van Pelt. And
they would win in the end,
but not the CIF.
It was not clear what
would be projected for Harbor
High on paper. The Tars had
eight lettermen, including
seven starters, but the size
was limited. It had been
rumored that Van Pelt and
Giddings might transfer to
Harbor, which WdS a cheering
thought for some.
Unfortunately, Giddmgs
and Van Pelt would both wind
up returning to the Tigers.

under Bears' Coach Lynn

Two of the six Newport
players practicing at Davidson
Field that summer were All-
Sunset League fullback Bob
Berry and junior halfback Mel
Smalley. Smalley would win
the scoring title with 104 points
by the end of November.
Perhaps the summer ses-
sion had no bearing on Har-
bor's '49 picture, but tl was
interesting in the end to find
the Tars chalking up an 8-1
record and piling up 323
points, which was a single-
season school record that
stood for many years.

Runs, as the score indicat-
ed, were ridiculously easy to
come by. Both teams com-
bined for 25 runs in the first
three innings. The lead ke pt
switching every half inning.
The Giants led, 13-12, after
three, before the game finally
slowed down. The Yankees
corned a highly energized var-
sity on Sept 1 and felt cheered
about the team spirit But nei-
ther could sense anything
more than a regular season.
One thing soon became
important and that was simply
that the Tars' forward wall
would be quick and aggres-
sive, but light.
The line would only aver-
age 161 pounds per man.
Most rivals would outw~
the Sailors by 15-20 pounds.
. The '49 Thrs, who helct four
rivals scoreless, wound up with
an impressive mark through
nine games for fu.mQle recov-
eries and interceptions.
Irwin always SJ>Qke highly of
his swift halfbacks. ln fact. he
once claimed the team's only
loss was attributed to nwnerous
injuries to his halfbacks. One
veteran. Harlow Richardson,
was lost with a broken left leg
in the first game an~ was side-
lined for the season:
It is interesting to recall
that four of the '49 Sailors
were on combat lines dcrring
lhe Korean War. They includ-
ed fullback Berry, halfback
Jack Bell, who earned numer-
ous honors, halfback Bob
Watts and guard John
Kingston.
Another link to '49 arrived
m 1951 when many Tars
helped drive Orange Coast
College to an Eastern Confer-
ence title. The list mcluded
Edward Mayer. Bob Wood-
