Sue Doyle DAILY PILOT COSTA MESA -Casey Donahue remembers when his family donated a Ger- man shepherd named Thor to a police force in Iowa. But the fact that Thor was shot to death by bank robbers just six months later is what real- ly sticks in his mind. It happened 20 years ago, but the memory still bothers the Costa Mesa man. Although he can't tum back the clock, the 26-year-old Donahue and his girlfriend, Jana Herbert, are trying to make life safer for the city's police dogs. On Tuesday, a pair of Costa Mesa police canines -two Belgian Malinois named Bart and Nero. - were each outfitted with bulletproof vests. • The protective gear was made available through the efforts of Donahue and Her- bert, who spent a year rais- ing $3,700 to purchase the vests for K-9 units at local police stations.

The house, known as the Panther Palace, has hosted partner-swapping parties since the 1980s. Men pay a $40 ·donation• at the door. Women get in for free. "Kids all talk a.bout it and know that's the house with the orgies,· Mergenthaler said. The house on Surf Street has been the city's dirty little secret for a long ~. but that may soon change. Last Thursday, the city filed a law- suit against the dub's opera- tor, 72-year-old Gordon Oliv~ for allegedly operating a busmess in a residential area. When reached by phone Tuesday.

The energetic 21-year-old from Huntington Beach has been interning at Costa Mesa's Earth Resource PoundaUon, an environmental group on 11th Street. The experience, she says, has given her a good sense of the way local politics work. But Cappel's professional and intel- lectual aspirations go far beyond 11th Street. Later this month she's heading to Geneva, Switzerland, where she will be part of a delegation of American students that will participate in a human rights summit. The Youth Empowerment Summit, as the two-week event is called, features round-table meetings with United Nations officials, a trip to sign the universal dec- laration of human rights, and other activ- ities. Cappel 5ays the diplomatic aspects of the program will fit in well with her over- all career goal, which is to focus on the complex problems of global climate change. ·it's huge,• she said, speaking outside the Earth Resource Foundation office. ·People have no idea how big [9lobal environmental problems) are going to be."

The man worked for B&B Amusements, the carnival company fair officials bad contracted that y~. In 1992, there were more than 240 bur- glaries reported during the fair's two- week stretch-many committed by car- nival employees, according to police statistics. Last July, there were 94, none were tied to a carnival employee. In fact, there haan't been a crime involving carnival staff since Ray Cammack Shows began running the s}\ow here six years ago, Smith said. Fiore attributes the canuval staff's good behavior to a tight screening process, which includes regular random drug test- ing, and the services his company pro- vides to employees: a traveling commis- sary: a hair salon: an outdoor lo~ge with a 60-inch television; day care for chil- dren; and a 54-foot trailer with maple desks, decorated with palms and framed photos, for the office staff. ~ Fiore stomped around the trailers and ~-assembled rides Tuesday, shorts p ulletl high on his 1>tocky torso, he respdnded to calls on his cellular phone and squawks from a two-wdy radio hooked to his waist. MARIANNA DAY MASSEY I O.tJLY PllOT Tony Flore, the manager of carnival crews for Ray Cammack Shows, has set sb'ict rules for the workers, including drug testing, curfews and a dress code. ANGLERS CONTINUED FROM 1 that these' guys ore new. There's a learning curve there.• Fiore, originally from Sonoma County, spoke with the gruff, deep-bellied boom of an old -school carnival huckster. But his speech was infused with the vocabu- lary of an enlightened new-age Californian. Tanbara said it has been dif- ficult for Newport Landing to hold on to well-trained staff because the strong economy has made it easy for employees to find other jobs. "We're hiring a lot of new guys on board,· he said. "Our employees need a sense of iden- tity, otherwise they can 't build self- esteem, • he said. ·we make sure they feel good, look good, are clean and well-fed." The type of dubious fishing practices the agents noted dur- ing the day trip are far from rare, Martarano said. "The problem of the over- fishing when the fishing's real- ly good is a common one," he said. "I don't know whether it's due to inexperience or not.· To stop such behavior, .tht> Fish and Game department also makes a frequent practice of sending its agents on boats incognito.

The city con- sidered rousting Wild Bill for runrung a business without a permit but gave up, conclud- ing the $30 admission fee was actually nothing more than a donation to deferthe cost of food and booze and mending the busted furniture. Wild Bill, in his brief moment in the spotlight, said he WdS nothing more than a gracious host to people who liked to party and have wild, unchecked sex.

Yeah, well, there's a shock fol:-you.- But all the wildness finally caught up with Wlld Bill. He died last year. Massive heart attack. But the never-ending party at Wlld Bill's, it turns out. has never stopped. Maybe the guests weren't even aware the old guy bad passed on. The operation or the Panther Palace was handed down to Gordon Oliver, a 72- year-old ex-Marine who says his morals are more Victorian than his predecessor's. He says be keeps tbe place run- ning as a tribute of sorts for Wild Bill. Evidently, not much has changed at the Panther Palace over the years. The parties still rage, the food and drink are plentiful and the lust -appar- ently -roams free. Only the admission has budged. It's now$40. A.Qd the city again is attempting to close the place up, alleging in a lawswt that Oliver is running a business without a proper permit. What kind of permit you need to get to do Uus sort of thing, I don't know. But some- thing tells me that the party at Wtld Bill's may finally be winding down. • STEVE MARBll ls the managing editor of limes Community News. He c.an be reached at ste\o'e.marbleOlatinws.com.
