DAILY PILOT
Following Los Angeles County
Superior Cow1 Judge James Otero's
decision overtwning Measwe F. the
d1Iferent sides in the debate must
decide what their strategy will be.
Here's what some of them said:
A CHANCE TO COMPROMISE
Newport Beach officials and other
supporters of an El Toro Airport say the
victory on Measure F means an oppor-
tunity to start working toward an air-
port that will be acceptable to the
entire county.
"It might make everybody sit down
at the table and talk about a reason-
able airport,• Newport Councilwoman
Jan Debay said. "It opens the door to
some kind of constructive work
together.•
Bruce Nestande, president of Citi-
zens for Jobs and the Economy. argued
that a reasonably sized El Toro could
strike a compromise between South
County's desires and the need to pro-
vide air transportation for the whole
county.
"We've got to do what we can do to
downsize the auport, • he said.
APPEALS AND MORE VOTES
But South County airport opponents
don't see the possibility of a compro-
mise quite so clearly.
For them, several other options are
possible.
First, an immediate appeal of
Otero's decision is likely, said Meg
Waters, spokeswoman for the El Toro
Reuse Planning Authority.

NEWPORT BEACH -El
Toro actiVlSts received an early
Chnsbnas present Friday as a
Los Angeles County Supenor
Court 1udge threw out Mea-
sure F. the irutiabve that would
have forced a two-thuds vote
on any future county airport.
Judge James Otero called
the initiative unconstitutional-
ly vague and a violation of the
state requirement that mea-
sures address only one sub-
ject.
"The judiciary should gen-
erally not involve 1tsell in the
initiative process,• Otero
wrote. •However, courts are
sometimes compelled to do so
when measures such as F are
so fundamentally flawed and
in violation of the constitution
and laws or this state."
Measure F, passed
resoundingly by voters in
March, would have required
approval by two-thirds of
county voters for work on air-
port, jail and landfill projects.
For the Airport Working
Group, an advocate of an w.r-
port at the former El Toro
Marine Corps Afr Station,
Otero's rulmg was welcome
news.
"We're happy,' Sdld Dave
Ellis, a consultant for the
group. ·we viewed Measure F
as deceptive, a ruse upon the
public, and the court agreed in
somewhat harsh language.•

-Wilda English IT bat has to be one of the silliest
ideas for a Christmas card that I've
ever heard,• a woman said to me
years ago.
Actually, it was almost two decades ago.
I didn't know tbe woman who made that
statement. but I
sure remember
how startled I was
when she said it so
abrupUy.
I was picking
up a roll of pic-
tw'eS I'd taken of
our young daugh-
ters. 1 hoped that
somewhere in the
package would be
the perfect picture
to use for our
Christmas card
that year. Actually
the picture didn't
have to be perfect.
l just wanted one
where the girls
Qndy
Trone Christeson
MORAL
OF THE STORY
weren't wiggling and both were looking at
the camera.
Our daughters were 2 and 4 years old at
the time, and it was a challenge to get pic-
tw'eS where they both cooperated. f'm sure
the funniest picture would have been one of
us parents jwnping up and down and acting
silly to get the girls to smile.
I'd started sending photo cards four years
earlier, after our first daughter was born.
There are c:ounUess cards and choices now,
but at the time there weren't many greet-
ings to choose from to be printed under the
photo.
I think I recall the choices being "Peace
on Earth," ·Joy to the World," ·silent
Night," "Noel" and "Merry Christmas: I'd
already used the first two greetings for two
years each and was ready to try something
new.
•Maybe I'll choose 'Silent Night' this
year,• I said to the man behind the counter.
It was at that moment that the woman
chimed in with her comment.
The man helping me looked surprised.
I'm sure I must have looked surprised. I
looked at the picture again. I couldn't see
anything silly about it.
All I saw were two adorable, little, bare-
foot girls in matching dresses. Their hair
still looked good, thanks to the haircut an
hour earlier and a little extra help from hair
spray. They looked like angels and were
sweetly holding hands and holding still.
"I'm sony, I must be missing some-
thing,• I said. "What is so silly about the
picture?"
"You 've got to be kidding," the woman
said without hesitating. "Those children
look plenty full of life and energy, and
there's nothing silent-looking about them.
How could you possibly choose 'Silent
Night?' Are your nights really silent?•
I didn't know whether to {eel embar-
rassed. mad or appreciative. J looked at the
picture again and then back at the message
options.
•you do have a point.· I said to her ..
lbars when I opted for •Noel."
A few years later, we started ma.king our
own Christmas cards and writing our own
meaages. They're usually about God's
love, peace or joy. But the most important
message about Ouistmas isa't what is writ-
ten on a card, but what God wants to write
on our hearts.
And you can quote me on that.

Bullies, vandals must learn actions have consequences
A week ago, actor Robert
Downey Jr., out on bail,
was arrested in Palm
Springs on suspicion of pos-
~n of cocaine and
· methamphetamine.
The day after his arrest. the
prcxiucers of the television
series •Ally McBeal, • on
which Downey has a recurring
role, said they were not sure
whether he would be invited
back on the program.
But two days ago, the pro-
ducers reported that the
;\.cademy Award-nominated
actor would be invited back
and may be offered more
work than just the 10
episodes for which he is
already committed.
One of the reasons that
Downey, Darryl Strawberry
and our own Todd Marinovich
can bounce back time and
again is because our society
has decided lb.at criminal
behavior based on conscious
choices is no longer a aime
but a disease.
But it seems to me that it's
only a disease if you're good at
making money for someone
else.
-
Steve Smith
WHAT'S ~P?
Now we read that our
schools are under attack by
vandals and kids looking for
fights. The dirty little secret
of recurring vandalism on so
many campuses for so long
has been revealed in a big
way.
Even KFI-AM (640), a
50,000-watt radio station that
on a clear evening can be
heard as far away as Yosemite
National Park, picked up the
story and reported it two days
ago.
The KFl news report even
detailed an attempt by vandals
to blow up the kitchen at one
school by leaving on the gas.
At Kaiser Elementary
Scboot violence has escalated
to the point where outside
intervention ls occurring. ·
ls the school hiring a pri-
vate detective to uncover the
bullies? No.
Are they posting security
guards on campus to send
students the message that
assault is a crime and will be
dealt with by the swiftest
means possible? No.
Officials have decided lb.at
like Downey, Strawberry and
all the other prcxiucts of our
leniency, criminals are ill.
At Kaiser, students are
receiving five "Souper Safe
Schools" anti-violence
lessons.
The program is based on
the book "Chicken Soup for
the Preteen Soul" and pro-
vides teachers with simple
lessons to teach kids how to
combat violence by, for exam-
ple, smiling.
The program addresses
issues such as "lack of
respect, belittling other stu-
dents, low self-esteem, the
perception that telling an
adult is 'tattling.' and taking
responsibility for actions or
lack of action.·
So now the dreaded ·s •
word -self-esteem -has
again invaded the region. I
know this will come as a
shock to the authors and to
many others, but low self-
esteem does not cause crime.
On the contrary, history shows
that our greatest tyrants bad
an abundance of self-esteem
and self-co.nfidence.
I'm not against the •Chick-
en Soup• program as long as
it is accornpanietl by a very
strong message lb.at perpetra-
toJS of violence and vandalism
will be punished to the full
extent of the law (critics,
please read that sentence
'again).
And by violence, I do not
mean common schoolyard
scraps. I mean premeditated
attacks on students that in the
adult world would constitute
the crime of assault.
But did we get this mes-
sage from anyone? No.
Was it reported that when
the suspected vandals are
arrested their parents will be
held responsible for the dam-
age? No.
Where was the outrage?
Where was someone from
the Newport-Mesa Unified
School District vowing to use
every means available to find
these criminals, not resting
until they are brought to jus-
tice?
Downey was turned in by
an anonymous caller to the
police, who arrested him in his
Pahn Springs hotel room. lbat
call confirmed my belief lb.at
no matter who you are, some-
one is waiting to turn you in.
Police use infonnants to catch
a huge percentage of suspects.
So the first thing I suggest
the school district do is estab-
lish a hotline for leads; a dedi-
cated line that takes only
anonymous calls with tips for
the police.
This number should be
plastered all over every school
to act as a deterrent to aimi-
nal behavior. Kids know
which other kids commit
crimes and someone. some-
where is willing to tum them
in if they are given the right
opportunity.
Television producer Nor-
man Lear thinks Downey is ill
As the son of a man who
drank bis way through the
prime of his life, J will state
that it drug addiction, alco-
holism and a propensity
toward violence are diseases, J
am E1vis Presley.
But as we know, whenever
anyone is ill, they should be
given a nice, hot serving of
chicken soup.

WHAT HAPPENED:
The board was updated
Tuesday on construction
progress at Newport Coast
Elementary School. The dis-

the school will open in Janu·

•What happe ned is, we

writer and director Robin
Morrison. "Plays usually
have maybe tow lead char-
acters, and then the rest are

something more active."
With 14 scenes a nd 122

definitely active.

from their childhood. It's
about remembering the good
old days, and at some time or
another the cars were part of
their lives. They are not so
much a part of today's chil·

has changed that.

Some lucky household pets ·are living the high life
In the whole world there
i. but one th1ng that money
can not buy, to wlt "the wag
of a dog'a tan."
-Josh 11111"91. 1865
F ew things have as
much effect on a
household as a family
pet. Even bickering siblings
unite in their love for a
four-legged friend. Child·
hood memories often center
on the loving companion-
ship of a dog or cat. My
mother stills talks about
Skippy and the way he
walked her to and from
school every day. Even
when Skippy was old and
unable to make the long
trip to the school, be would
faithfully wait for her by the
railroad tracks on her path
home. She tears up every
time she tells the story.
Apparently, I have inher-
ited the same gene. I could
barely pull myself together
after seeing "My Dog Skip"
in the movie theater last
winter. I made the kids sit
with me through the credits
at the end of the film, just
so I could pull myself back
together. Thankfully, tllere
were a few other sappy
moms in the audience who
went through as many tis-
sues as I did.
With sentiments like that,
no wonder we are willing to
go the distance for our pam-
pered pooches and cuddly
kittens. Whether they are
ladies or tramps, we all love
to spoil our pets.
I recently received a cat-
alog in the mail called ·In
the Company of Dogs.• It is
produced by Petopia and
has the most a.mazing selec-
Karen W1ght

tion of pet accessories. Just
flipping through the pages
was major entertainment. In
addition to the predictable
selection of pet g6odies
were items such as "mut-
tluks" (booties for dogs), a
"little wizzer" fountain (yes,
you know what it does), pet
"pearl" collars, treat-of-the-
month clubs, velvet pooch
pouches, matching
owner/doggie sweaters, and
my personal favorite -a
bejeweled doggie tiara for
the belle of the ball (as in
fetch).

Jor your pet include custom
doghouses. Contractor Allen
Mowrer builds custom dog-
gie domains, or should I say
chateaux, chalets and cas-
tles. One of Allen's works of
art resides in our neighbor-
hood. This custom doghouse
is three (doggie) stories
high, has air-con.ditioning,
limestone floors, working
windows, a "formal"
entrance and a large back
door for easy access. I don't
think anyone would mind
being in this doghouse.
I wanted to meet the dog
of the house and see what
kind of pooch had the good
fortune to live in such a
manor. When I met Ted, I
found out the house is the
least of the blessings
heaped on this lucky dog.
Ted, who has received his
American Kennel Club
canine "good citizen" cer-
tificate, has quite the life. In
addition to his daily walks,
Ted has a standing play
date witll another dog (a
Chihuahua) and his owner
every Sunday. Ted has his
own car, a Jeep -and I
mean a Grand Cherokee,
not a Barbie version -
betause Ted (a Bernese
mountain dog) cannot fit
into the owner's Porsche.
Ted is a Parrot-head and
even dressed up as Jimmy

Ted's owner gave me the
rundown on the pet-friendly
places in the area, many of
which I did not know about
Pets are usually taboo ln
stores and restaurant.a, but I
learned Hard Rock Cafe in
Fashion Island will let you
sit on the patio with your

Corona del Mar Plaza will
do the same. All <ioga are
always welcome at the
Three Dog Bakery. Fashion
ISland's Barnes & Noble is
dog-friendly. Ace Hardware
bas always welcomed dogs,
and Brett's Photo Express
even keeps dog treats for its
drive-through canine cus-
tomers. Check out

The French chateau has a copper roof, bay window and
hardwood Doon. What more could a pooch wantt
Lest you think that Ted's
owner is the only over-the-
top pet owner around, I also
know Murphy's "mom• had
a nonskid pet cushion made
for the console of her car -
a Jaguar -so Murphy
could see outside. Mollie
gets a personalized doggie
birthday cake every year.
Foster gets carried around
in a Snuggly on occasion.
And a personal confession
on my behalf: My dog,
Mirna, bas had her portrait
done in a pencil sketch.
Crazy? Maybe. But con-
sidering how much uncon-
ditional love our pets give
us. it's not surprising. So
when you see a dog with a
tiara hanging its head out
the window of a car, don't
laugh, it's puppy love.
Buffet for Halloween this
year. Ted also has a pet of
his own, a cat named Bill. I
kid you not.
A guilty conscience from
Ted's owner, who bas a full-
time job to help maintain .
Ted's lifestyle, resulted in a
pet for Ted . The pet cat,
Bill, follows Ted every-
where, perches on the roof
and waits for Ted to emerge
through the doggie door of
the main house and super-
vises Ted's daily excursions.

MEASURE F
CONTINUED FROM A 1
Otero's ruling punched multi-
ple holes in the Initiative.
Its proponents' contention that
the initiative treated the single
subject of county health and safe-
ty, the judge said is untenable.
•This subject is so broad that it
obliterates the (single-subject)
rule,• he said in his decision. •An
unllmited array of land-use provi-
sions could be considered ger-
mane to the health and safety of
Orange County communities.•
Otero also bit the measure for
ereding large obstacles to the
construction of jail and landfills, a
move. that •greatly impairs or
wholly destroys essential govern-
ment power:
At City Hall, the reaction was
al.So jubilant.
Mayor John Noyes said the city
now should focus on extending
tbe Oight caps at John Wayne AU.:~
port and keeping up a dialogue
with South County cities.
He added that Newport
Beach had decided to support
the lawsuit to test the measure's
legality. A requirement to get
approval from two-thirds of the
county's voters on new airports
or airport expansions could have
helped· the city in its hght
against a larger John Wdyne
Airport, as well.
"The invalidation of Measure F
is a two-edged sword,· explamed
Councilman Tod Ridgeway.
Councilman-elect Gary Proctor
pronounced himself ·extremely

·w e think the appellate court
will take a fresh view of this
whole issue." she said.
Also probable, she s6ld, 1s the
option of creating another mitia·
tive with language less vulnera-
ble to challenge than that of
Measure F.
ANOTHER LOOK AT MEASURE A
Finally, in his ruling, Otero
•
pl04Sed" and said it was time to
get to work on an El Toro that
would be acceptable to the entire
county. ·
•This has got to be a collabora-
tive effort," he said. •Not behind
closed doors. I don't believe that
any portion of the county should
try and shove down the throat an
unbelievably huge airport at El
Toro:
Still fiery El Toro opponents
said they will appeal Otero's deci-
sion.
•This is just the first volley,·
said Meg Waters, a spokeswoman
for the El Toro Reuse Planning
Authority, a leading anti-airport
group. •n could likely go to the
state Supreme Court.•
Waters said Otero's opinion,
with which she •respectfully dis-
agreed,• did not change the fact
that most county residents oppose
the El Toro project.
It also doesn't alleviate her
group's concerns about safety at
the proposed airport.
She said airport opponents, in
addition to filing an appeal, may
develop a new initiative to chal-
lenge El Toro.
"Everything is on the table
right now,• she said. "It remains to
be seen:
Bruce Nestande, president of
the pro-El Toro Citizens for Jobs
and the Economy, said he doubted
an appeal of Otero's decision
could be successful.
Pushing for an appeal ·is the
quick reaction that anybody
would make: he said. "But when
they have their attorney Slt down
and go through this thing, they
may change their mind."
urged El Toro opponents to
directly contest Measure A, the
1994 initiative specifying that El
Toro should be used for •a pub-
licly or privately owned and
operated airport.·
Nestande said he would wel-
come such an approach because
it would clanfy the debate over
El Toro, rather than bringing
prisons and landfills Into the
argument as Measure F ctid.
·That's what we've always
said." he said. ·u you want to
fight the airport, fight the air-

Amos -who attended Costa Mesa
High as a senior last year -is con-
nected to several other vandalism
cases that took place at Newport-
Mesa Unified School District cam-
puses during the Thanksgiving
holiday. Hollard said.
At least half of Newport-Mesa's
29 schools were vandalized in
als to plant a mixture of rye, fescue
and Bermuda grasses -which
Oowish in different seasons -so
grass will grow there year-round.
Volunteers said they already
have set up a contingency plan in
case the grass needs further mainte-
nance in the future.
•we have a beautiful lawn right
now. It's in better condition than the
last lawn was when the park
began,• said Pat Bell, consultant and
some w ay over the holiday. said
Eric Jetta, the district's director of
facilities and maintenance opera-
tions.
Vandalism damage at two other
Costa M esa schools -Davis Edu-
cation Center and the site leased
to Coastllne Community College
-was nearly identical to the dam-
age at Costa Mesa High, Jetta
said.

vent takes locals on a tasty trip to South Africa
n cue you were
unaware, the Newport-
Mesa f amlly has a very e contingent of trans-
ted South Africans,
eluding two of my person-
favorites, Jacqueline
..... ..wr and Hazel Dyer.
t week, Dyer invited
me 50 guests to dinner
or a little •taste of South
·ca:
The purpose of the
vening was to introduce
e local crowd to what the
ostess referred to as the
mystique• of her home-
d. Working with the
ewish Community Center,
er was encour~ged to
Ian a trip to South Africa
ext year for anyone wish-
g to partake in an exotic
oyage to the other end of
e world. The dinner was a
bit of an introduction to
ome of the foods and cus-
toms of her native land.
"I just became a United
States citizen (last) month,•
ottered Dyer, the travel
coordinator for the center.
"I am very proud of the
United States and very
proud to be a citizen in
spite of our voting prob-
lems.•
Dyer ls excited about
sharing her African roots *1th her new-found Ameri-
can friends. The adventure
i"planned for April 16.
11 Dyer, working with
Mel'}'VD Anollk of Safari
Catering, prepared and
served the dinner, begin-
ning with mini-vegetarian
5'D:1osas, originally popular
with the people of India '
THE CROWD
and brought to South Africa
in the late 19th century by
traders. A buffet of bite-size
beef boerewors (a type of
sausage), strips of chicken
breast peri-peri, curried
and pickled fish and dry-
wors and biltong, which are
like jerky, were served prior
to a wonderful, mild lamb
curry. The curry was dished
out with pappadums (a type
of bread) and assorted sam-
bals (condiments).
The curry dish, accord-
ing to Dyer, also was
imported to South Africa
from Malaysia and India in
the late 1800s. Also on the
table was a generous por-
tion of one of South Africa's
most popular tribal foods
called •pap and gravy." Of
course, there was ample
coconut-banana chutney.
For dessert, there were
rnini-melkterts and koeksis-
ters (pastries). I can 't even
pronounce this last dessert,
but I can tell you it too was
imported to South Africa
from Holland in the 1700s.
The dinner certainly was a
tour of food as history as
well as sustenance.

Trial's sensatio~ shouldn't oversha~ow tragedy
M. urder. Mys-
tery. Scandal.
Intrigue.
The Bechler murder
trial has all the ingredi-
ents necessary for a
made-for-TV movie.
The characters: the
wile, a strong, successful
older woman; ~e hus-
band, a handsome
scoundrel in love with
the good life; and a vix-
en of a girlfriend vl'no
enters the picture a short
time after the wife mys-
teriously drowns.
Prosecutors have
alleged, however, that ' Bechler plotted the fatal
trip and was attempting
to cash in on his wife's
multimillion-dollar life
insurance policy.
Bechler hd main-
tained his innocence,
saying that Pegye, 38,
was wiped out of the
boat by a wave into a
deep-sea death. The
prosecution contends
that the victim, a triath-
lete, could not have sim-
ply fallen into the ocean
without first being
knocked unconscious.
apparently remains the
star prosecution witness
-unless defense attor-
neys can block the
taped conversation
between her and Bech-
ler from being entered
into evidence.
This is a case that
demonstrates the phrase
"truth is stranger than
fiction." And that fact
hasn't escaped the media
and those following the
trial; with the opening
statements scheduled to
begin soon, there is sure .
to be a feeding frenzy. Eric Bechler, who was
at 29 a widower, has
been charged with
killing his wife, Pegye,
d\iring a 1997 boating
trip to celebrate their
fifth anniversary. To the
outside observer, it might
.have seemed at the time
that the couple, parents
of three children and
business partners in a
thriving company, had
much to celebrate.
The case is filled with
twists that read like a
noir detective novel. Nei-
ther a murder weapon
nor Pegye's body has
been found. A 15-hour
Coast Guard search
uncovered nothing, and
at the time, authorities
said the July 1997
drowning looked like an
accident.
Pegye and Erle Bechler ln happier days. Eric Bechler ls DOW OD trial for Pegye's murder.
Although the case is fit
for an over-the-top
screenplay, those
involved should not for-
get that this is real life.
The characters are real
people .
More than two years recording of Bechler
passed before police reportedly discussing the

y unanimous vote,
the board of directors
of the 5,700-member
Friends of OASIS Senior
;<:enter has requested that I
:respond to the insulting
: remarks ,COMMUIHn about the COMMllTllY city's
anior citizens that Measure
·T co-chairman and former
mayor Clarence Turner
'made in the Daily Pilot on
'Nov. 10, following the over-
whelming victory of Mea-
sure S.
According to the Pilot,
after admitting Measure S
proponents were at a •clear
advantage• in the growth
struggle, because most of
them are retired and didn't
have to work, Turner said,
"Those people (senior citi-
zens) tend to think in terms
1 of we-don't-want-any-
more-development and are
only concerned about
themselves.•
Turner should hang his
head in shame. Does he
have any respect for the
elderly? It is true that there
was heavy elderly involve-
ment in the Measure S
campaign, and it is also
clear that senior citizens are
the largest voting block in
the city, which carried Mea-
sure S to victory.
More than 1,000 Mea-
sure S petition signatures
were gathered at OASIS
Senior Center in the early
stages of the Measure S
campaign. There are 20,000
senior citizens in Newport
Beach.
Most of us have been
here for many years and
have very long memories.
We have watched the
changes in the city, the bay
and residential areas close-
ly and observed the actions
of the Planning CoDllJ!.ll·
~on, City Council, three
city managers and the city
staff.
Most of us are registered
voters and most of us vote,
and we have long memo-
ries.
. As for Turner's assertion
that seniors are concerned
only •about themselves,• it
is fact that our elderly in
this city are the backbone
of volunteer activity and
efforts throughout Newport.
Now that their working
days are over, they serve the
community -for example,
in schools, hospitals and
libraries. You see them
everywhere -as tutors and
assistants at all public ele-
mentary sch0,0ls, at Hoag,
convalescent hospitals, Taste
of Newport, Sherman Gar-
dens, the Shalimar Leaming
Center, Continuation High
School, the Environmental
Nature Center, Meals OD
Wheels, polling precincts,
boards of directors of chari-
table and community service
organizations.
They even make histori-
cal presentations about
World War 11 to school stu-
dents and atso do fund-rais·
ing for charitable causes.
We think Turner's com-
ments about seniors lie
more in bis concern for the
•bottom line• of developer
and business interests
rather than our quality of
life here.
Turner, in his capacity as
Measure T co-chairman
and former mayor, clearly
owes an apology to the
senior citizen communicy of
Newport. Hopefully wh.en
his working career is over,
he will come to see things

Rules are rules
T here are rules and procedures that potential candi-
dates must adhere to.
One of.those rules is to witness each signature that
appears on his or her petition to pull papers to run for a
city council seat. As a prospective candidate, you are
reqilired to slgn your petition form, acknowledging you
have personally witnessed the 20 to 30 signatures that
appear on your papers.
Potential candidates should take this process very seri-
ously. In the past there have been individuals who have
not qualified and were not able to run for a oouncil seat
because they did not follow the rules and complete the
process accurately.
If it is proven that there is an impropriety in Chris
Steel's papers, I believe action should be taken. To allow
or to overlook a dishonest attempt in the process is a slap
1n the face to potential candidates who follow the rules
and to citizens in a community.
People who serve as public officials are often aiticized,
sautinized and sometimes unnecessarily plaa!d in a cat-
egory of not being forthright and honest. To allow any-
thing improper to go unpunished would further damage
the public's perception of •politicians• and that would be
a slap in the face for many of us.

COSTAMESA -
Regret is just one
obstacle James Dawkins
has conquered in h.i,s young life.
Dawkins, Orange Coast College's
star running back, could have played
at Purdue University after a stellar
high school campaign at Estancia
High, 1995-97. But, because he was
academically ineligible, he didn't
qualify for a scholarship and he
turned his focus toward Orange Coast.
"There's regret,• said Dawkins,

CERRITOS -As
if the Orange Coast
College football
team needed more
reason to prove that
the Pirates are for real.
Tonight's Strawberry Bowl
matchup of OCC at Cerritos College
(7 o'clock) might not have ever
come about. according to Falcons
Coach Frank Mazzotta.
If you are to read between the
lines, one would be inclined to
believe. the only reason the Pirates
are in a bQwh_E«Jmj' sort, is ~
of the''iJt ...... W orttie-Cerrl •
Falcons, whO·managed to win th ·
last game of the regular season to
qualify for a bowl game.
Simply put, no Cerritos, no
Strawberry Bowl.
·we lost our sponsor for the bowl
game,~ Cerritos Coach Frank Maz-
zotta said. ·we had to do some fund
raising and we had to win our last
game against Riverside. We did. If
we didn't have a bowl game you
never know who would be left out.•
And if that's not enough fuel for the
Bucs, Wednesday's Strawberry
Bowl banquet at Cerritos could also
ignite OCC. The assembly of Pirates
and Falcons heated an already fiery
matchup.
Coast running back James
Dawkins confirmed a stinging salvo
of words exchanged between the
teams in the parking lot as the play-
ers were departing.
Dawkins said he could not repeat
the words because it would not be
appropriate for print. But the con-
frontation will only bring more
excitement to the game, he said.
Division running back who leads
the Pirates to the Strawbeny Bowl
tonight (7) at Cerritos. "Especi.ally
seeing how Purdue is now with
Drew Brees and they're playing in
the Rose Bowl. I could've been on
that team. It's a lot of regret, but you
can't dwell on that. I'm right here
right now. I can't think about it and it
doesn't make any difference. I'm just
going to forget about it and make
something out of this.•
Dawkins' trademark has been
making the most of his opportunities
and it goes back to his high school
days when he played for the Eagles.
Dawkins remains No. 2 in the
JC FOOTBALL
Newport-Mesa District in career
rushing with three seasons at
Estancia resulting in 3,209 yards
and 34 touchdowns on 452 carries.
He was District Offensive Co-player
of the Year in 1997.
Dawkins holds the second-best
single season rushing mark at
Estancia with 1,473 yards in 1996.
Last year, Marshall Hendricks broke
the record. but it took him 41 more
carries than Dawkins to do so.
Dawkins was on his way to
Purdue, but an admitted laziness in
high school classes caught up with
him. Dawkins said he almost didn't
graduate from Estancia because he
wasn't serious about his school work
and he was •getting into trouble.•
Depression set in for Dawkins
after reality struck that being a
· Boilermaker and playing in the Big
10 would never be. He could've let
the sadness and regret swallow him ..
He could've sunk deeper into trouble.
Inste.ad, he turned bis focus to
Orange Coast with the hopes of
staying true to his trademark.
When he arrived at OCC, he sat
out the first year to build strength
and learn more about the game. The
red.shirt year also gave Dawkins time
to improve on his studies.
Last year, he played behind Ray
Ohrel and Jimmie Banks. He made

Jeff Brinkley and La Mirada head

paths before.
But since Brinkley left Norwalk and the Suburban
League to take over the Sailors' program 15 seasons
ago, and Mele ascended from assistant to Matadores
bead coach two years later,
they've had to follow each oth-

championship game four times. The Tars are making
their sixth trip to the semifinals and are 87-24-1 during
that span, including an 18-4 postseason record.
During the same time period, La Mirada won the ClF
Division VIII crown in '92, captured 8 of 9 Suburban
League championships and reached the section final
five times. The Matadores are an impressive 98-17-2
during that stretch, including 20-7 in the playoffs.

Matadores (12-0) before a crowd expected to exceed
the stadium's 5,00().seat capacity.

Sea View runners-up have gotten here with a physical,
ground-oriented offense fueled by senior tailback Chris
Manderino (1,797 yards and 29 touchdowns).
La Mirada, meanwhile, has blown the doors off
opponents with a prolific offense fueled by the passing
talent of senior quarterback Erik Meyer (2,788 yards
and36TDs).
The Matadores have beaten all but two foes by at
least 24 points, outscoring the competition. 593-204.
