Launching a series of new
water-quality studies, Newport Beach
leaders want to get to the bottom of
what's causing pollution in Upper
Newport Bay and Newport Harbor. .
Qty leaders brought in notable UC
lrvlne professor Stanley Grant, who
te!lches environmental engineering, to
talce water-quality samples in the
harbor to determine If boats are
dumping their sewage in the marina
Grant, working with a $50,000
contract, said he would also take
samples at two other locations in the
bay as part of the study. The study was
ordered by the 5anta Ana Regional

Trying to find a compromise
for CHOC health center
District officials and representatives
from Childrens Hospital of Orange
County have decided to work with
community members who criticized
the placement of a health center on
the Westside of Costa Mesa. Officials
hoped to locate the center adjacent
to Rea EJementary School. By working
with opponents, both entitles hope to
create a center that the community
embraces and that addresses what
they say Is a severe need to help
children.
The Newport-Mesa Unified School
District will expand Its breathalyur
tests at school social functions to alJ
students starting this fall. While the
dlstrlct has tested students suspected
of alcohol consumption in the past,
officials feel this will be a way to make
sure ever}' student understands the

The Orange County Dyke March

Council agenda. but the subject was
not absent from residents' concerns

lasl week. as the city and a county
lesbian organization announced a
compromise had been reached and
withdrew the Item from the meeting.
Special event officials, including
police and transportation staffers,
agreed to approve a shorter route for
the Aug. 17 Dyke March around Uon's
Park, given event organizers withd~w
their request for permit fee waivers. As
a result, the council qenda item
scheduled for Monday was dropped,
leaving a handful of residents with
questions and concerns.
Audience members wanted details
about the march and wanted to make
sure the city hadn't given the
organization any special treatment
Council members assured residents
that fees were not waived for the
march, as the lesbian group would still
be expected to pay nearly $4,000 for
their event.

A history feature all but feU
from the sk:iea for me this
week
I'm always loolcfng for them
and really appredate when
people suggest Ideas. But th.ls
week it happened rather
anonymously. One of my editors
received two pages tom out of a
photo aJbum. &ch had a atleet
of plastic protecting Los Angeles
11mes stories about a woman
named Verna 8. Ford.
l don't know who sent these
ln, nor why, but thank you. 1 had
a good time getting to know Ms.
Ford.
If you don't recognize her
name. she went by the name
Annie. And if Annie still doesn't
ring a bell. she was a Costa Mesa
mailwoman who was so
"gregarious" that she became
known as "tugboat Annie,"
according to a 1964 Daily Pilot
story written by current theater
critic Tom Titus.
The yellowed nmes clippings
about Ford include grainy
pictures of the late mailwornan.
In IWo of them, she is holding a
long cigarette holder with smoke
spiraling from its tip.
One story, written In May of
1971, said Ford was known to
always be with this little
accessory. Doreen Healey, who
was born and raised In Costa
Mesa and had her mail delivered
by Ford, confirmed the quirk.
"My husband worked in
Crawford's Drugstore when we
were young,· said Healey, who
added that she'd never even
heard the mallwoman go by
Verna. "She used to come in
there and get books and sit and
read. And she smoked and she
had a long. long. long cigarette
holder. She'd sit there at lhe
counter, In the olden days they
had fountains, and she sat there
and she'd read the books in there
and smoke her cigarette and
have a cup of coffee."
Ford, best known for
delivering the mall of many
Costa Mesa residents, is also
remembered by Healey as a
book reader and rock collector.
But it was as a mailwoman
that her social side came ouL
COURTESY OF THE LOS ANGELES TIMES
Verna B. Ford was a mailwoman in Costa Mesa from the
mid-l 940s to 1968. She went by the name "tugboat Annie."
"She was so friendly and she
knew everybody. of course,"
said Healey, who knew the local
celebrity through her grammar
and high school years. "She was
a charming old lady. She wasn't
that old, but 10 us, she was ·
old."
The Times story from 1971
!ells us that Ford started her
deUvery career in 1945 and
retired In 1968. She is said to
have thought of her patrons as
"families" and was known for
godmothering 29 children.

instead of cbeerleading camp,
she would be attending an in·
tensive math and science sum-
mer school called COSMOS at
UC Irvine.
The outgoing Ventura teen-
ager said she was pleasantly
surprised when she arrived on
campus last month and found
other students like herself who
wanted to challenge themselves
mathematically ~e having
fun outside of class.
In fact at a brunch before

SELLER'S

By Dav~ ~11g
If rhere is more demand
for houses than can easily lxr
met by the number of homes
available for sale, it's a seller's
marker. Sellers, generally, can
call the shots in such a
market. Oflcn, they arc
receiving multiple offers on
their homes, if rhc homes arc
auracrivc and well-priced.
Further, home value& arc
generally rising fairly quicl<ly
bccau~ of rhc intensity of
demand.
Is rhis the bcs1 time co sdJ

sdl your home is the time
when r.ou truly need or want
to sd . But the time when
you will probably get rhc best
price for your home is at the
paint when a seller's market
rs reaching its maturity.
A seller's market is always
foUowcd by a slowdown, a
rransitional period that leads
into a buyer's market, when
there arc more homes for sale
than demand requires and
buyers have a great number
of attractive home& to chOOK

Balboa Island artist Steve
Simon was an up-and-coming
businessman when Newport
Beach first captivated him. The
first time he drove over the
bridge to Balboa Island, he fell
so deeply in love that he not
only abandoned his hometown
of Olicago, but he was inspired
to cash in the button-down
lifestyle for that of an artist
Just as Spencer found her
artistic home overlooking the
Back Bay, Simon has found his
uJtimate artist's model in
Balboa Island. Though his body
of work stretches well beyond
Newport Beach. home is where
brush finds most or its
inspiration.
"For me Newport Beach and
Balboa Island in particular were
love at first sight I just felt the
artistic juices coming to the
forefront for me," said Simon,
who moved here eight years ago
to become a professional artist
and who, four years ago,
opened Simon Fine Art Gallery
and Studio on the island.
Like many artists. Simon has
found that views from the south
bay front, sights like the Balboa
Pavilion viewed from across the
water, "are an ideal subject
"Even though so many
people have done It, the classic
view of the Pavilion never gets
old because the mood, the,
lighting. the different tlmes of
day and year ma.Jee it different
every time," said Simon. who
last year published a book of his

Five things to do before summer
is over in Newport-Mesa
Youn1Ch.n1
Daily Pilot
E nd your summer by having a filng
with Newport-Mesa. Watch and
spin stories about people minding
their own business at Fashion
Island or South Coast Plaza. Spend
a day in the sun and salt at Crystal Cove. Ride a
not-so -dizzying Ferris wheel at the Fun 1.one.
Feel the grass pric kling through the towel while
a musician plays in the park. Bite into a frozen,
chocolate-covered banana, bought from a
Marine Ave nue vendor.
The calories. the brain-freeze. the indulgence
of it all!
You just cannot miss this stuff.
Assuming you've alre ady done the tanning
and barbecuing, the water-sporting and the
Mai-Tai drinking, you need to experience
summer's subtler side.
Have you ever sat in a mall and watched the
fashionable people. the weird people, the tall.
the short, the lone r, the crowd-eel and the
I-hate-shopping shoppers go by? 1ry iL With
the dog days of summer yet to come (43 days
to be exact), and with air-conditioning soon to
become an extra wonderful thing, why not sit
yoursetf on a mall bench, maybe with a snack
or two, maybe with a friend or two, and look
around? It's really more fun than it sounds.
With all of mankind's many quirks, it's a
guaranteed circus.
The beach is just as fascinating. Just stare
and get lost in the bigness of Crystal Cove's
waters and sands. Start thinking about all those
unnecessary things that become problematic if
you think about them too long. Then start
thinlcing that cenain things are actually so tiny
compared to really big things like oceans and
sides and lose the worries you found while
over-thinking. Then, spend the rest of the day
doing nothing productive, nothing that
requires cell phones and computers, nothing
that requires much energy at all. Just sit there.
And when you're tired of doing that. what
about visiting the Ferris wheel at the Fun .zone
on the Balboa Peninsula? Yeah. yeah. Only
tourists ride the wheel. only tourists care about

City was right
to put brak~s
on regulations
C osta Mesa City
Council members,
who lately have
found themselves
facing criticism over
efforts, depending on one's
perspective, to either clean
up and regulate the town or
turn it into a version of Irvine,
made a wise and reasoned
decision last week to loosen
regulations regarding vehicle
storage.
In essence, the council rightly
determined that a few bad
apples don't, in this case, ruin a
bunch.
The months-long debate was
driven by car enthusiasts who
saw themselves as the
unfortunate and unnecessary
targets of regulations banning
the storage of inoperable
vehicles outside.
The laws applied even in
backyards, if the car was visible
from neighboring houses.
While cleaning up the city is a
worthy goal, it need not involve
careening head long through
those not being irresponsible
with their property.
Relying instead on city health
and safety codes to combat
unsightly and dangerous
properties is a much more
well-reasoned line of offense.
This is especially true when, by
city workers' own estimations,
there is not a large number of
egregious offenders.
Still, even these loosened up
and more targeted rules should
not be taken too far.
Those complaifling that the
city's aggressive enforcement of
the past few years goes too far
and crosses the line into
invasion of privacy make a good
point.
Residents of Costa Mesa (and
the rest of Newport-Mesa, for
that matter) should not feel they
are being watched every second
of the day. Private property
should remain private except
when police or other safety
officers are properly involyed
and have in their hands
documents such as search
warrants.
City leaders certainly have
better things to do than peek
into backyards and over fences.
They proved they know that with
this decision.
Balboa bids adieu
to an old favorite
W hen we found out
last week the Balboa
Beach Co. would
leave its Balboa
Island flagship store, it stung a
little. Founded in 1970 in the
Fun Zone on the Balboa
Peninsula, the clothing store has
become a piece of the island's -
and city's -history.
Owner Jim Roberts says the
company best known for its logo
T-shirts can no longer afford to
stay on the island. A rent
increase to his store "exceeds
our business model," Roberts
said.
While it's obviously a shame
the Marine Avenue store will
close up, it's a shame the
decision to take the Balboa out
of the Balboa Beach Co. rests on
a business model.
After all, much of the reason
the 32-year-old business
succeeded in the first place rests
with the locals who purchased
the shirts. Councilman Steve
Bromberg pointed out this week
that about 90% of his shirts
sport Balboa Beach Co. logos
and that many islanders also
boast the shirts.
We understand that profits are
important to a company,
especially in this economy, but
we would think something could
have been done to keep the
company close to its roots. In
1995, the company merged with
Pacific Brands Retail Group and
began operating stores In outlet
centers -something we'll more
likely see from this point on.
But even though the store will
close, we hope we continue to
see Roberts behind the keyboard
at city functions and Newport
Beach Oiamber of Commerce
events. And, despite its
departure, we appreciate the
history and the product, and
definitely look forward to seeing
all of the company's future Jogos.

REBUTTAL
Greenlight endangers Newport's quality of life
By Richard S. Stevens
In reading the thoughtful letter to the
editor authored by Adele and Mel Mann
in your Aug. 3 edition ("GreenUght
preserves city's quality of life"), I felt
saddened that we have come to this in
our lovely city. 1 have been visJting
Balboa since 1937, and this has been
my permanent home since 1963,
almost 40 years. I have been a
developer and I have led major efforts
against development (the airport
among others). I have served this city
and county in a wide range of volunteer
positions over many years, so I have
paJd my dues.
ln short, I love Newport Beach.
I also strongly feel that Greenligbt will
ruin our city, all by the bands of
well-lntendoned citiz.ens. People who
know the reality of the political process
will agree that under the current rules
of the game, no economically feasible
project will ever survive an election.
Won't happen. 'Il)en, increasing costs of
operating the city will mandate that our
elected officials will be forced to seek
other ways to generate the needed
income in ways that will not require a
vote.
And what might they be? Think about
the continuing el"Ofllon of our prize
jewel, our harbor. We are a.lttady giving
away the most precious llSlet one bit at
a time with the continuing expansion of
commercial party boats, noise, Joss· of
HOW TO
CONTACT YOUR
REPRESENTATIVES
water space for kids to sail, inadequate
parking and the like.
That's just the beginning.
What really bothers me is that
Greenlight has usurped the very
essence of elected government. We
have castrated our elected City Council
by its passage. Why not apply the
Greenlight principle to our national
government? When the president wants
to send troops somewhere, lefs hold a
national election and, unless a majority
vote yes, our boys stay home. Then
maybe we can get rid of Congress and
run the country onUne. In essence. we
have told our elected officials "we don't
trust you, so we're not going to let you
make decisions on our behalf." What an
insult. Why these dedicated people
would continue to serve is beyond me?
I have developed major property in
the toughest of all towns, Carmel and
Monterey. They have done a dam good
job of preserving the essence of what
makes their community great. Their
regulations and scrutiny by the staff
and Planning Commission took us
. through the hoops for some years, but
we were allowed to develop our
property ln accordance with the zoning.
We never would have survived an
election, and the city would have lost
the addition of a lovely, very popular
reskJentJal area providing needed
housing and Income. It wouldn't
happen under GreenlighL

Newport Beach Police
Lt. Bob Oakley leads·
the airborne unit the
Costa Mesa and
Newport Beach police
departments team up
to fund and operate.
W hen a new group
called the Committee
to Abolish Helicopter
Noise popped up in
Newpon Beach last month,
dozens of letters to the editor
swarmed the Daily Pilot.
To find out more about the
Airborne Law Enforcement Unit,
a joint-effon Costa Mesa and
Newpon Beach created in 1996,
City Editor James Meter took a
nip over to one of the hangars at
John Wayne Airpon where
Newport Beach Police Lt. Bob
Oakley leads a 10-man
operation of three helicopters.
The wlit has an MO-SOOE and
two EC-1208 choppers, the
latter of which Oalcley says are
currendy the quietest in their
class. They're equipped with
infrared, a searchlight with
SO-million candlepower
capability, a computerized map ·
and a Lo/Jack system that allows
officers to track down stolen
vehicles equipped with the
antitheft device.
While based out of JWA, the
choppers, which patrol at 70
mph, but can fly up to 140 mph,
also land about five times daily
at Costa Mesa Police
Department for refueling and
abouttwicewee~yatNewport
Beach Poli~ Department for
meetin~ and paperworlc needs.
ln 2001, the unit responded to
6,306 calls, resulting in 692
arrests and 54 recovered cars. Of
those calls, 1,394 were-in
Newpon Beach and 2,480 were
in Costa Mesa, which pays more
for personnel.
When and why will residents hear
the choppenl
They'll hear a helicopter OD routine
patrol when it's passing by, when It's out
there Oying and not specificaDy on a
call. The aircraft is scheduled to be
airborne five hows oul of every
nine-hour work shift, and there are two
work shifts per day. Weather-and
maintenance-permitting. that (\ircraft is
airborne 10 hours a day.
If there are no calls taking place
during that particular part of the Oigbt
ln which we register the racUos Crom
three different agencies -Costa Mesa
and Newport Beach and Santa Ana by
contract. So the helicopter can be over
any of those cities at any given dine
during lts routine patrol practice&
It'• not on a call, then it's generally
just passing by. We have lists of areas
that we checlt on. things that our
detectives may be Joolcing ror. Those are
some of the duties we perform when
we are not apecitlcally on a call.
Otherwise, .we're monJtoring ttafllc and
acdvity in specific areas related to the
time of day that draw our attendoo to
so~ unusual. That way, we're
more proactive and dfectM in a law
enforcement poeture.
When the belioopten on a call, It'll
go to that locadon ~and begin

Newport Bachf
ln 200 l, the aircraft was in Newport
Beach 36.89' of its time. Th.at factors in
time for both calls and routine patrol
Costa Mesa Is 44.7%. Santa Ana Is
14.4%. The reason for that is the
amount of time they actually contract
for our service. It's based on how many
dollars they contract for our service.
Haw doee that work tbeof Do you
they pay up front?
Yes, we bill them monthly. We have a
contract and an employee (a full-time
pilot) who we get credit for. In the
grand scheme of things. it relates to 37
minutes per shift over the dty of Santa
Ana. That brings back revenue,
including the employee's time, of about
$300,000 annually to the cities of
Newport Beach and Costa Mesa. That
further reduces the costs lo our
communities.
Haw mmy memben of the unit an
tberel
There's myself and seven pilots
currently assigned to the unit on-a
full-time basis. Th¢re's one employee
that is on a temporary asslgnment here
to augment our investigative operations
for detectives' surveillance wort. which
i.ilcludes counter-drug interdiction and
narcotics surwillance type of
operations.
There are also three mechanics. They
rotate their time depending on the
maintenance needs. Aitcraft on a
maintenance schedule based on
number of OJght hours they have. At
any given time, aircraft may require a
specific procedure.
Something else with respect to
cost-sharing and cost-reduction: We
also perform maintenance for the
OrangeC.OUOtySheritJ'•helicopter
program. They contract with us for
maintenance (of two be:llcopters) and
hangar and office space here. 1bat
of&ets costs even more to the nme of
about $2.50,000 per year. So, though we
employ the mechanic:a, we make better
use of their time by contracting their
services with the sherUra deputment
here. Also, we'll use an aircraft for
training. But when they're training,
they're training over the city. We'll go to
Los Alamitos Army Airfield for that.
What are aome recent apectflc ca.Ill
the choppers have gone onl
(Grabs a staclc of reports) Here's one.
It's a man with a gun call. The
helicopter arrived on-scene first. It
located the suspect. This was a man
with a gun riding on a bicycle. They
located him at First and Harbor in
Santa Ana They lcnew he was originally
armed, but the unit determined that he
wasn't armed. As a result, they directed
units back. to where they originally saw
the suspect. And the officers found the
gun as a result ofthaL That's something
that probably would not have occurred
without the use or the helicopter. They
were able to locate the gun, obviously
put together a better case for someone
who was unlawfuDy armed ..
Here's a grand theft in Newport
Beach from Neiman Marcus. It was in
excess ofSl,000. It says F.agle (another
name fur the choppers) responded to
the area and located the suspect vehicle
on southbound PCH from Newport
Coast, which is about a oouple of miles
Crom the scene. F.agle contacted LakUna
Beach Police and the vehicle was
slopped in Laguna Beach. The suspect
was aauted and the property was
recovered. That's a case where we ~re
able to get miles away from the crime
very quickly to find and foUow the
5\Upect.
The way tn wbk:h eome of the gated

It does because the ground units
have to gain access to the community
whereas the beUcopter does not.

obvious in even IO more officen don't
bring that capability with them. In this
case. with a vehicle being pursued, the
officeTS weren't willing and able to take
the same types of chances in
endangering the public as the suspect
was. The helicopter's presence there
still caused the suspect to be taken into
custody.
Here's a grand theft in Corona del
Mar. It was a purse snatch at Pogonia
and Coast Highway. 1hree males and
o ne female were involved. The vehicle
was described with a full license
number. F.agle was able to drop down
and con6.rm the license plate. Laguna
Beach PO was immediately requested
to assist.
While they were responding, the
driver stopped his vehicle in the
intersection, st~ped out and walked
away. Eagle stuclc with the subject and
directed Laguna Beach unhs to take ·
blln into custody. &gle then l'l!tllmed
to the car, which was still in the
intersection. No one else was seen
exiting that car and there were no
incUcations, such as a door left open. to
suggest that anyone else exited. One
female was followed north on the
highway that looked close enough to
the de$Cription of a female involved..
She appeared to ducked into a motel
room and was later detained there.
pending further investigation. At that
point. Eagle left. This is just the
helicopter log.
That's another example of the
helicopter's overview and seeing many
aspectS of a scene and being able to
direct the ground officers.
Now what do you often ftnd on
routine pauo .. t
Most commonly during the daytime.
we11 find vehicles driving recldessly and
obvious h1gb speeds that draw
attention so we can direct someone to
stop them. More often at nigt\t. in
commercial areas. where vehicles are
moving around where they houldn't
necessarily be, the air mM will watch
what they're doing. If they look lik.&
they're at doors or somethlns like that,
we'll d lrect ground officer& to check It

COSTA MESA -As daylight ap-
proached for the first g6lfers Sarurday
morning and an ocean breeze cooled
the afternoon players, what transpired
was a wild first round ln the 30th an-
nual Costa Mesa City Championships
at Costa Mesa Golf & Country Oub.
The shorter of the two city-owned
municipal golf courses, Mesa Llnda.
played havoc on the defending cham-
pion, Big Canyon Country Oub's Ml.Ice
Carpenter, but played right into the
hands of nine amateurs who finished
within five strokes of the lead in the
championship flight
Mike Lavery of Irvine, a member of
UC Irvine's men's golf team, blitzed
Mesa Llnda with a 6-under 64 and will
take a one-shot lead into today's final
round, along with Taylor Wood and
Ken Calven. A stroke back at 65 is the
quartet of Patrick Carrigan, Adam
Mashall, Ed McGlasson and Andrew
Thomson. Another quartet is two
strokes off the pace.
"Everybody lcnows it's a pretty short
course and it's the kind of course
where you're pretty much guaranteed
to have some birdies," Lavery said.
"You just don't want to make any bo-
geys and I didn't make any bogeys."
Lavery, who will be a UCI senior, fin-
ished tied for first last month in the
Southern Califomla Amateur Champi-
onahip and lost in a playoff.
Battale resumes this afternoon on
the longer Los Lagos course (6,542
yards) for the title. Brougher, a fonner
Costa Mesa starter, won the first light
last year. Collopy is a Newport Harbor
High product.
Carpenter, attempting to become
only the third player to repeat as Costa
Mesa champion, was hoping to light a
fire of birdies for his Big Canyon four-
some in the first round, which in-
cluded Will Tipton, Danny Donovan
and Jones Cup Ill champion Danny
Lane.
"I thinlc we were trying to hit too
long a drives," said Lane, who, along
with Donovan, shot 73, while Tipton
was 1-over 71 and Carpenter 5-over 75
to faU 11 strokes off the pace.
Carpenter, who qualified last month

George. the only golfer to play

store which no longer exists.
"I decided to play in this
tournament," added George,

course-record 12-under 58. Ja-
mje Varnum held the previous
record at 59. The Los Lagos
course record is 10-under 62 by
Bryan SaJtus, now a member of
Canadian Tour and the last
player to repeat as Costa Mesa
city champion (1995-96). John
Wardrup (1990-91) is tht: only
other player to win back-to-back
Costa Mesa titles.
Major championship winners
Marie O'Meara (1979) and Scott
Simpson (1974) won Costa Mesa
titles before their PGA Tour ca-
reers. O'Meara won the 1998
Masters and British Open; Simp-
son won the 1987 U.S. Open.
With tee times at 5:50 a.m., be-
fore sunrise, Collins said no
Oashlights were necessary, but
caddies stood out"m the falrway
to help golfers see a target.
"You don't use much (sight),
anyway, when you're teeing off.
You use your senses." Collins
said. "You've just got to feel the
force."

Continued from A 11
a 2-under 69 on Los Lagos to win the inau-
gural Costa Mesa City Olampionship with a
69-6~138. '
"That was a long lime ago," George said
Saturday, after posting a cool 83 on Mesa
Unda to fall out of contention. "Whoever
would've thought that this tournament
would have this kind of history."
George, referring to past Costa Mesa win-
ners such as Mark O'Meara (1979) and Scott
Simpson ('74), both major championship
victors on the PGA Tour, said it is an honor to
play in the Costa Mesa City Ownpionships.
MI'm not as good as I used to be: said
George, who a.t SO is eligible for senior golf
events. ·rm getting old. I'm on the downside
of a mediocre career."
George, who worked at Santa Ana Country
Oub for 2J years before retiring in 1999, is
still in the golf business. selling golf equip~
ment and accessories.
Of his record 30 straight appearances in
the Costa Mesa City Ownplonship. George
said only once did be ever come reasonable
close to missing a tournament, but he has
Mnever come close to missing it."
In 1995, George boarded a plane for Las
Vegas on a Sunday ntght following the sec-
ond round to attend a golf Industry conven-
tion, but there was never a conflict. "I won
some script that year, too," George saJd, re-
"I was playing w ith Joe
Simpson, Scott Simpson's dad,
and I made t he turn at 33, but
still didn't know w here I was
(on the leader board). Then
they told me at 12 1 was in t he
lead. I couldn't believe it. I was
a little nervous, but I was able
to keep it together:'

ferring to one of his three top-1 O finishes in
the event.
George, who lives in Lake Forest. placed
second In the Santa Ana City Cl1amplon'ship
ln 1993 and qualified for the 1995 Southern
CallfomJa Amateur ClwnplonshJp at Santa

outstanding versatile
athletes to play all
major sports at
Harbor Wgb ln the early days
was the late Tum McC.orkell,
Class of 1944.
McC.or:kell, who died two
years ago of Parkinson's
Disease, had advanced his
career in years past to become
a successful architect in Laguna
Beach.
He scored high marts all
through hJgh school and
eventually could tally up 16
letters In athletics, which is
among the records from
yesteryear. One recall
had him listed for
eight ~ity letters
and eight lightweight
monograms.
interesting to note that
McC.ockdJ won first place in the
All-CIF high hurdles in '44,
although it featured some
htlmor and oonfusion.
After McC.o!Xell was calJed
the winner, there was some

unintentionally run nine
tracksters across eight lanes,
which was illegal.
The sly Reed
protested, pointing to

his "lunch-time

Out of some nervous
chit-chat, the officials
chose to run the race
again, but award a

Boles, another CANTRELL versatile athlete, said
Neth said. "Tum was
a very popular guy and a great
all-around athlete. In football,
he was quiet, but quick."
Md:orkell was not a giant
arhiete, but Neth said he
managed weU at 5-foot-9,
weighing 145 pounds.
Few classmates remember
McC.orkeD from later years, but
Neth said he did appear at the
20-year reunion in 1964.
Fonner gridmates Joe Muniz,
Bill Van Hom, Glynn Boies and
Rod MacMillian all remember
him as a fine gentleman, a
well-disciplined athlete,
friendly and a bright studenL
MGCorkell was a running
guard for the legendary fullback
Harold SbeWn on the champ
'42 grid team, but was shifted to
blocking back under Les Miller
ln '43 since former coach
Wendell Pickens had left for the
Navy after World War U opened.
Named "Tur of the Year" in
'44, McC.orkell had also earned
raves in basketball.
In t'act. Harbor's All-CIF
forward Bud Attridge recently
said. "Tummy McC.ork.eU always
made me look good. He was
not a ilashy guy but he was a
quJet guy and a sharp team
player."
Attridge recalled one game
"where they double-teamed me
and Tummy scored 20 points.
Then they chose to guard him
tightly and 1 was clear to score
22 points." That prompted a
laugh in reflecting back.
McC.orkell earned the
excellent player trophy in the
annual Huntington Beach
lburnament In '43. He was a

conference officials chose not
there was one big
disappointment in basketball in

MWe won the Sunset League
championship and qualified for
the ClF playoffs, but Principal
Sid Davidson ruled against it,
because the war was on and he
didn't want the school using up
any gasoline for the school bus.
He was a very conservative
man," he said. adding. "there
were no Clf playoffs for us that
year."
But Boies, an ace pitcher on

remembered that McCo!XeU
was also a sterling baseball
player.
McCorkell. captain of the '44
horsehide club. wound up with
a batting average of .531, which,
at the time, was the best bitting
mark in the history of Harbor
High.
The star athlete had played
both third base and in the
outfieJd in four years of
baseball.
The team won six of 10
games In Miller's first year as
the baseball coach.
And Miller once said he
moved Md:orkell and Carl

in '43 because the '42 team had
graduated all but three of Im

of the players Into the military.
Miller said Md:ork:ell did not
have great speed, but was shifty
and quick in his running

Boles remembered one last
gathering with McC.orkell
during a later year at USC when
he invited the Conner grid mate
to join his fraternity and he
accepted the bid.
