The two Southern Califor- nia natives. first met in the fifth grade in Pasadena. They were playmates and neighbors, growing up together until the 10th grade. Each went their way, each got mar- ried, Pennington became widowed and Kostlan got divorced. 1\vo yea.rs ago, a mutual friend fixed them up on what was said to be a •blind date.• Kastl.ail got the details, though, and knew he was about to meet a friend from bis youth. Penning- ton found out during the evening. . Herb.....,..-.. Doa• ,_......were .-lied In HaW.U 1M1 wlb.

Local historian Jlm Jen- nings, who has lived on Bal- boa Island for 42 years, has seen this sUit. Por decades, <luring h1s early-mo.ming strolls, be has passed by an Onyx Street home known by neighbors nearby as the Ghost Home because no one has ever been seen inside. But one morning about 15 years ago, Jennings saw a lady in the front lawn water- ing plants and went in. They talked. She and her husband had lived there before the husband passed away, and now she remained the sole owner of the home while living elsewhere. She had white hair and wore a dress that might have been blue, Jennings remembers. They walked through the rooms of the house. In the bedroom, Jennings found a plain brown suit laid neatly out on the bed. The closet was full of men's clothes. A lady's dress was laid out on another bed. In the kitchen, the table held plates. This was all in case the late husband would ever want to wear bis old brown swt and sit down for a meal with bis wife, who would also then wear her designat- ed dress. Jennings didn't ask the woman any questions. ·1 go by that house almost daily,• he said. ·1 have never ever seen her again.• But he has seen painters freshen up the exterior. At least every five years, the lady J ennings met that morning arranges for the beige planks to be colored more beige, the green trims a fresher green. Workers were last spotted iust two months ago. Jen- nings remembers asking one of them lf they planned to go irLSide. •No way, nobody's ever been inside,· Jennings recalls hearing. C'osta Mesa's spint appears more social.

We're hoplng that the usher 18 still hanging around there somehow ln the theater. Theaters have to have ghosts for good luck." Michele Rf>berge Executiw director, Balboa Performing Arts Theater Foundation hasitthattherobber stonned into the Adobe, left bis candle on the window sill and walked away unW he could no longer see the name. He buried bis gold in this spot, but only be knows which direction he walked, where be stashed bis secret. He was chased out, Pan- ian heard, and never returned. The treasure is supposedly still there. •u you're at the Adobe at the right time, you can see the candle light in the Adobe. Story goes that it's the robber trying to locate the gold," the Costa Mesa resident said. Michele Roberge of the Balboa Performing Arts The- ater tells of another friendly ghost. This one's in uniform. Two years ago, as Che Newport Beach theater underwent demolition for d renovation that still goes on today, Roberge, her co-work- ers and the demolition crew leader came across an old Polaroid of a female usher wearing a maroon uruform with navy blue piping. She was smiling, her hair was light brown, curly and short The photo was found under- neath a seat m the theater, ·which was bwlt in 1927 Roberge and her cohorts asswned the color picture was from lbe forties, Judgtng from the dothel and hi.ii of the usher. 1ben they real· ized Poi.toldl didn't exist then. And the theater hadn't had uniformed ushers in decades. But what really spooked Roberge was the message on the back of the photo: •To Bob, with love.· The demolition crew leader who was looking at the photo was named Bob. "It was just kinda spooky that this picture ... we don't know how it came to be still there,· Roberge said. "We're hoping that the usher is still hanging around there some- how in the theater. Theaters have to have ghosts for good luck.· Then there's the ghost light. Every theater has one -the Balboa Theater will get theU"S at the end of the renovabon. It's a bare light bulb that sits atop a pole on wheels and solely lights a dark theater throughout the rught, when no one's there. "The more romantic story LS lhdt the stage manager puts the ught out there just to let the spints and person- diltJes dnd characters that huve bee n created on the stage -that a lot of us believe !Jve on -know we'll be back the next day," Rob<-rge said. When the executive director first arrived at the thcdter for a )Ob interview, the building w.as being gut· tc•d <.1nd piles of 1unk clut- tered the grounds.

But if Anaheim officials decide to seek a replacement for their city manager beyond the doors of their city hall. it could come at that city's gain and Costa Mesa's crippling loss. Roeder, who has served as city manager since 1985, has won wide praise from the coun- cil members he's worked with and other city officials across the county. While other cities, school districts and even the county have been dragged through the mud for a variety of controver- sies -bankruptcies, sexual harassment charges, embezzle- ments all come easily to mind - Costa Mesa has sailed steady under his firm control. There are a number of rea- sons why Roeder would want to take the Anaheim job. Anaheim boasts professional baseball and hockey teams. not to mention an amusement park called Dis- neyland. It runs its own utilities and is about three times larger than Costa Mesa in terms of both population and area. Its budget of $960 mil.lion is more than 10 times Costa Mesa's. The challenge an,d change is obvioll$ly appealing. But there are still challenges remaining in Costa Mesa. The proposed Home Ranch project -the last major new develop- ment in an otherwise built-out city -is far from a done deal. The Westside awaits redevelop- ment. Next year's election, with Councilman Gary Monahan's announcement that he won't run, ensures at least one new face and therefore a council majority with little experience. The most telling fact may prove to be this one, however: Roeder has spent his entire pro- fessional career in Costa Mesa, starting ui 1974 as an unpaid intern. It is simply natural that he would want to move on. And unfortunate. Competitive UC Irvine taking on. baseball, again A s you know by now, after a 10-year hia- tus, the Daily Pilot has returned to cov- ering UC Irvine. It's an exciting addition,· given the university's academic reputation and the breakthroughs its professors are making in science and .many other fields every day. A.1So exciting at ua right now is the baseball team that it plans to field for the first time since the program was eliminat- ed in 1992. Budget cuts led to its demise at that time, but nearly 10 years later, the. Anteaters will again take the field Jan. 25, and we'll be there to cover them. With the new program comes a new $9-million stadium that is under construction. A student referendum passed in 1999 increased student tees by $33 a quar:ter to support the new field. which ua baseball coach John . Savage says will be •one of the nicest facilities on the West Coast" and will allow the school to attract som~ big-name players. With that said, it wouid appear UCI may eventually field a top 25 team that would provide Cal State Fullerton with some competition for the best baseball team in Orange Coun- ty. As any college baseball enthusiast will attest, Cal State Fullerton has one of the best programs in the nation. We look toiward to extremely ~mpeti tive matchups in the future that will give the ntans a run for their money. In the meantime, let's not for- get that college basketball begins at UCI on Nov. 16. After the school's best year last sea- son, expectations are high. We're looking forward to seeing how the Anteaters fare this year and hope we'll be covering their run in the NCAA tournament.

Wbat coovtnced you not to run for reeledionf I think it's just time to step down. I don't have the passion that I bad for a quite long time. You know, it's been seven years, coming up on the end of two tentlS and elSJbl years, two terms, is enough for anybody. It's time to get out and get a flesh perspective and move on to some other things. I'd have to admit that having four children and one on the way and a relatively new business that requires an awful lot of time are definitely contributing factors . What got you onto the coundl to begin withl I think the real kicker was -well, it all started when the City Council was trying to shut down the Goat Hill tavern, and I felt they didn't give us a fair shake. We made some changes to allay all the concerns, and they refused to listen. insisting that we dose down at midnight, which didn't make sense for a bar. So, Sid Soffet, being the owner. filed a lawsuit. So, I, being the man- ager at the time, became the spokesperson. We had a lot of deal- ings at the City Council meetings, and I was observing what was going on and wasn't very happy with lt. r felt the council didn't listen to the people, that it was very anti-busi- ness. I actually earned myself mem- bership on the board of directors on the C hamber of Commerce, and one thing 1ed to another and next thing I knew I was running for and eventu- ally winning a seat on the City Council. Any regrets In Joining lbe coandll ls that a leading question or what? No, I don't have any regrets. I think it's been really good for myself, and l,think I've done some good things for the city and the con- stituency that I feel I represent. It's been a good seven years so far, and hopefully I'll have one more good year before trs over.

I'm still working on improving some softball fields at TeWinkle Park. That's been a mainstay since I first started on the council. Westside redevelopment area - it's going to take longer-Olan a year. My goal has been, since taking over chair of the Redevelopment Agency, to kick-start it. It's been a very slow and quite fractious process to date, and I think it's going to get even worse. The big challenge for me is to keep everyone focused and move that down to where some benefits can come out of it. · Also, ever since the election, the council has been pretty -there's been some rough edges. The re's been quite a bit of disagreement and, hopefully, I can help keep it together until the next election and keep it on a positive note. I'd also like to see us get more involved in the airport process. I've been pushing that for a while, and with Councilman Chris Steel on board there's two of us. But we're still trying to get the commibnent from a third, if not a fourth, council member. We seem to be getting there, but there's still a long way to go. Do you plan on staytng lllvolved In the community In another rolel I imagine I will. Not tbat my life isn't busy enough, but there's other things I'd like to be involved in. like my daughter's school and other organizations that I just haven't had the time for. You want to gQ to a fund-raiser or an outreach meeting, and you've got a City Council appointment on the same night Obviously my responsibility is to the city and to the council. There are other areas I like to get involved. READERS RESPOND How do you tb1nk the Home ltanc:h project will tum outf I think it's running its course. and there's plenty of opportunity for the public to discuss it. There's lots of pros and cons, and I think at the end of the day, I think the council's going to make a very sound decision on it. I think we're getting a pretty good idea of what lt's going to look like, but I thmk the final project may be a little different than what's on the table. You know, you asked me a ques- tion earlier of what got me into this. I think there's a pendulum approach. You go from liberal to conservative. and also trom pro-business to anti- business. or whatever you want to call it. I think one of my concerns is that the little guy gets left out. Again, as Sid Soffer once said and reminds me on occasion, "When my neighbors have more say on what I do with my property than I do, it's time I ~ld it to them and told them what to do with it.· That's one of the concerns I've always had and continue to have, is that so many individual rights get trampled on and, hopefully, I can keep that out in the public eye and, once I'm gone, I hope someone else will pick up on that. Again, it's far too often that the little guy gets beat on. A prime example is the Hal- loween house right now. Code enforcement ts having some prob- lems with the sheds out there. 1b..i.s is a mainstay on the Eastslde -one of the nice things about the Eastside.

The character of the East- side really came out of and still is the individuality of each property. We're not in Irvine and, with the more codes and the more develop- ment requirements that pass, the more vanilla the Eastside will become. That's why l live on the Eastside, because I like the individu- ality part. What do you hope happens to the Job Centerf I really haven 't advocated closing il I remember what it was like whe n we bad a lot of workers on the street. especially near Lions Park. It was a nightmare. What I've advocat- ed all along and, for some reason I can't gain any support, is to make it self-functioning. You've got employ- ers that are saving a ton of money by hiring somebody there. U you charge them $5 per employee picked up. that would pay for the center over the course of the yeat. It boggles my mind I haven't been able to get any support for that. Everyone argues about whether to close it or not close at. and I think that would be an easy, in-the.nuddle compromise, at least for now. Part of the argument is that we put a bunch of taxpayer money into it. 1lus would take that out of the equation. Irs a bigge r problem than just that, but that's a start because once you take the money out of it, we can use the money for other things. That money could be used to keep day- workers out of other areas. We can have a special task force out of the Police Department or something. That would. be a logical first step I can't get any support for. Any 8nal tboughbf Just tell everyone to come down to Skosb's and have a good blne.

BUlwm Coached the COila Mesa vanity for eight ~ (1984-91) and h.aa since worked as a ~lor at Corona del Mar (offense) and Costa Meea {defeme). In addilion to bis prep coechb\g experie~ be spent two seaaons at Chaffey Community CQUege. He was the secondary coach for the Southern cau- folnJ.a Sun Of the now-defunct World Football ~e. He was also director of personnel and vice president in charge of football operations for the AnabeJm-based Sun. 84Jdwin said loyalty to a star-studded junior class at Santa Ana, including standout future NFL receiver Isaac Curtis, was the reason he turned down an offer to join then-coach Jobn McKay's staff at USC in 1968. He believed be owed It to his juniors to coach them as seniors the following fall. After the World Football League folded, he sald he 11pumed opportunities to work in the NFL, instead accepting a more lucrative job selling insurance, in order to offset the debt he incurred when the finan- cially strapped Sun did not pay him his final six months wlth the team. It wasn't long, however, before he was spending afternoons watching practice at Santa Ana High. Saints Coach Tom Meiss asked him to join the staff as an assistant and, after some soul searchlng, BaJdwin soon seized the head-coaching opportunity at Costa Mesa. •I had a doctor who gave me a neat analogy about fllY selling insurance." Baldwin said. •He told me when I played foot~ l was probably the kind of guy who would just tape up a sprained ankle and play hurt. I said, ye.ab, that was right. He said my selling insurance instead of coaching was like playing hurt. I thought about it and decided I had to get out of that dam job.• Baldwin said his first game back as a coach vindicated those instincts. •1 still remember it like it was yesterday,• he said. "(Santa Ana) was playing Fountain Valley at Orange Coast College and I walked out of the locker room down the ramp toward the field and the adrenaline was just pumping so hard. They tried to te ll me that making a big big sale was better than winning a (ootball game, but, for me, it wasn't even as good as ld.king the field for practice.• Baldwin considers his first Mesa team, which finished 0-9-1in1984, among his favorites. "We hatl )cjds who had ne ver played in a winning football game,• he recalled. "Those guys worked so hard and we had a lot of fun. It was one of the most rewarding seasons I've had as a coach. I remember the last day o( practice that season. A lot or kids we.re crying, because they didn't want their season to end: His involvement with the game and with kids won't end any time soon for Baldwin, who still tencbes economics at Mesa and enjoys time with his f.unlly, including his wife or 47 years. Carol. He also has two grown children and six grandchildren. '. . ti.4f-~-. II -·-Iii .. Iii .------• ,..,. ....., "ea ATTENTION ~ RV,.-.* AGENTSI %: ~~'°2.,-= Tf!!!?!!. g JffWf?5!
