about the

In the city of
PETER
BUFFA
Costa Mesa, which is not far
from here. an aJtument that has
waxed and waned for more than
20 years has finally been settled.
Before long, Costa Mesa will
trade in its white and blues for
black and whites. The cars won't
change, but the paint jobs will.
There was a time, long ago,
when police cars were black and
white. Period. Not blue and
white, or brown and white, or
anything else and white. Just
black ... and white.
In the 1970s, someone
decided -and I wish they
would call me before they do
these things -that cops needed
to be warmer and fuzzier. Do
you know where the word
"cops" comes from? Years ago,
police badges were made from
copper. and the people who
wore them were called
"coppers," which was soon
shortened to "cops." Does that
have anything do with what
we're discussing? It does not.
In an effort to be more warm
and more fuzzy. most police
agencies abandoned the black
and whites and went to the
white artd whatever's.
There were some half-hearted
arguments about lighter colors
being easier to see but no one
ever proved that and no one
really believed it. Let me ask you
this. When that big honkin' black
and white CHP Crown Vic gets
right up on your bumper and
lights you up and scares you, do
you have any trouble seeing It?
Neither do I. There is no real
reason for police cars to be black
and white other than tlle fact
that cops like them that way. It
makes them happy. And tllat's
good enough for me. There are
some people who I try really,

that has been entrenched in yt!atS or
costly settlement agreements with
the OOWlty the FM and other
agencies over John Wayne air traffic.
Newpon Beach instigated the idea
of taldng over some of the county's
duties, most notably control of JWA.
and advanced that possibility by
creating a specific committee to
study how that would best be done.
So far, it has been Newport Beach's
party and its officials have the
prerogative to limit the gu~t fu.1.
Do Costa Mesa leaders have .t riRllt
to have their voices heard?
Absolutely. And th.is is the perfect
opportunity for the city to rever.e IL'>
historically Daccid stance on airport
bsues and establish its weight ui
John Wayne discussions.
Costa Mesa Councilmru1 Alla11
Mansoor Is correct Costa Mesa must
have a voice in the future of the
airport -its residents deserve 10
have their best interests represented.
Mansoor should continue I01)Uil>Ue
his fresh, aggressive approach to
John Wayne issues and push his
council lo talc:e the necessary steps to
hold their own discussiom with
COWlfY leaders.

future of John Wayne. it mu.\I

llCI aml the cities of Newport Beach
and (:<Na Mesa learned there would
be n mixn1re of deep cuts and fee
.-hikl'~ proposed to their already
raw r-t11m coffers as part of the
80Wmor':. plan to erase the state"s
$15 hillion deficit.
On Friday. the governor proposed
hi'i $99.1 billifJn budget that included
Sd0.3 hllllon for public education and
S8. 7 hilhon for higher education.
The bnd new.. ls thnl the governor\
plan will ~h1f1 some $1.3 billion in
property Laxes from local
governments to the state to help pay
for ~hool funding. and he plans to
oveNec UC '~tern tuition increMes
of 10% for undergraduates and 40%
fo r graduate students.
At Orange Coast College, ~tudenL~
could sec fees go from an already
hiked $18 a unit to $26 a unit. It was
only a year al_(IJ lhat the price or a
course ww. $1 l n unl1. meaning the
cost of a community college
education could more than double.
For state park visitors, the hikes
mean Instead of paying $5 to visit the
beach, it could cost S\2 per day. For
those who hold annual passes, the
pm:e jumps from $67 to $125.
N> for the shift in $1 .:i billion lrom
local governments statewide. city
oflk ials have been down this road
before in th e early 1990s. when tht'
stale government took. money out of
civic budgets to h>ive 10 schools with
l11e promise that it would be remme<l
later. Thal date never came. M'Jl1is is
just robbing Peter to pay Paul.'' said
Newport Beach Mayor Tod Ridgeway.
Ridgeway said the cuts 10 local
governments could translate 10 $2.4
million for Newpon's budget alone,
which may have an effect on new
hiring for public safety pen>onnel.
The governor's budget is not all bad
news, however.
Newport-Mesa school officials
were relieved thls week w learn that
I.he governor's proposed S.1-0.3 biUion
m school funding means spending
per pupil will increase by $2 I 6 a year.
Whjle some special programs will
lose funding. it his heartening to
learn that for I.he most pan
elementary education will not feel
the brunt of the budget knif'e this
year.
Gov. Schwa17.enegger wa.s elected
to be a refonner, to provide new and
creative ideas to solve the state's
hudget woes. So far, this budget
doesn't seem to offer anything new.
While not imposing taxes on income,
businesses, or property, it does mean
college students and state park
visitors are goillg lo see their costs go
up.
It might not be called a tax for
them, but it sure is going to feel like
one. We just hope the pain they are
going lo feel is worth it.

Don't lose that loving feeling
AT ISSUE: The
cocaine-related death of
musician Bobby Ha tfie ld.
The Newpon-Mesa community was
saddened by the death of Bobby
Ha1fi eld on Nov. 5, and we are further
saddened this week lo learn that a
drug may have played a precipitating
factor.
But let's stand back. and put all this
into perspective. They say a man's
greatness is judged by what he leavt!S
behind. In the aggregate, few have left
our community after contributing so
much to so many.
His music lifted the spiri1s of not
only the "Happy Days" generation but
the next and now the next. We always
chink of our own peer group's music as
the best -but even my kids think the
music of the 1960s was pretty cool.
Who hasn't danced Lo "You've Lost
that Loving Feeling," or " Unchained

When, a few years ago. our
community was devastated by the

Drugs. sex and rock 'n roll! I have to
admit. this was pretty much the
mantra of the 1970s growing up in
California. Timothy Leary and LSD in
Laguna Beach Marijuana and hashish
in the high st:hools. Quaalu des and
reds on the streets. Flower power in
San Francisco.
For all of us, time marches on. For all
of us, times change. Some of us change
with the times and some of us don't.
Drugs, once used by some fo r
recreation, have turned into addicc1on,
despair and death. For others,
experimentation and use has been
outgrown and dreams have been
sought and achfoved -and this
includes many of the people who want
to be president of United States today.
ll was sad to hear that the famous
Bobby Hatfield died of "acute cocaine
toxicity." It is sad to hear when anyone
with talent, potential, influence. and
the love of many people dies from
drugs. It is sad to hear of anyone dying
from drugs and to think what possible
potential was squandered.

Having owners Uving in their homes can have a
positive and calmlng effect on a neighborhood.
That is not to &ay that rental housing Is not
desirable. A sufficient stock of rental housing is
critical to any vibrant community. We need 10 be
able co provide residents of all lncome levels a place
to live in our community. . . Sometimes I think the
"problems" we enrounter wi01 renters could be
avoided by the property owner:. themselves. Proper
screening of potential tenant!>, regular maintenance
of rental properties, not cramming too many people
into too little space and avoiding undesirabJe uses
of rental units would go aJong way toward having a
beneficial effect on the city. As an owner of rental

December at the Holiday Bowl
IO go 13·0·0 and a few days later
was named No. 1 in both polls,
the coaches and the writers.
I was on the AP panel. the
i.econd year of a second "run· as
J voter on the wnrers' panel and
w.c. one of '>t'Veral voters who

defeating Pitrsburgh (3-7 -1).
Baylor (5-6), "l\Jba {6-5). Hawaii

Wyoming (6-6). AJr Force (8·4),
New Mexico (4-8). Texas-El Paso
(2·9), San Diego S1a1e (4-7· I),
Utah (6·5-1) and Utah State
( 1-10), before posting a 24-17
victory over Michigan (6-6). They
managed to get past Hawaii,
1 R-13, Wyoming. 41 -38. and Air
force. 30-25. It was Michigan's
worst record In 17 years.
Washington ( 11-1-0),
meanwhile. KO'd Oklahoma in
the Orange Bowl, 2B-l 7. The
Huskies' only loss was to Rose
Rowl-winner USC (9-3), 16·7,
and there were no uses on
BYU's schedule.
It was a hot topic in
November, with BYU and its
weak schedule in the No. I slot
with its unblemished record
after Washington reU in the 10111
week.
After some writers went with
Wru.llington in the final poll,
including myself, the Associated
Press caJJed me at home,
inquiring for my reasons for not
voting for BYU.
I had not voted for BYU as the
No. I team at any point in the
season. And, a final No. 2 vote
for BYU was given grudgingly.
There were several teams
obviously superior, among them
USC Ohio State, Nebraska,
Oklahoma and Washington.
I told the caller, "I llave a
question for all of those so
enamored with 'nbeaten.' Where
were you late in the season when
Cal State FuUenon was 10·0 and
the panel (logicallyl had the
Titaru No. 19 because of a 'soft
schedule'"?
hitters in the past.
Fullenon finished 11 -1 and
among its list of victims were
Hawaii, Colorado State and
Fresno State.
Why such respect for a BYU
schedule which was arguably
not much better than
FuUenon's?
TI1e Times and Hegister did
nor carry the AP srory. but plenty
of others did and my question
was the central point of the
piece. I got a phone call from
Seattle where the I luskies
thought I llad it just right.
At any rate, that was my
reasoning, righr or wrong, but I
had no idea I'd wind up in the
spons pages around the counLry.
I found myself on rhe AP
panel after receiving written
invirations from AP. twice, and
looking back can only presume I
was given the opportunity
because I covered home games
for rwo major schools (USC and
UCLA). I'd call in each Sunday
morning from home with my
picks. always updaung my
previow, selections. a'> opposed

but it was not something to
boast about, ii wa~ ju...1 my fin.I

There seems little doubt the
Pilot, with a circulalion at thal
time hovering around 15.000.
-was one of the srnalleM in the
nation, if not the smallesr, to be
involved with the AP l op 20.
That was the end or rny voting
on the AP panel. The following
season l was replaced by the
Register\ college writer, who 10
my amusernenr, referred to his
paper's participation 111 his game
notes and so forth on a regular
basis, which was somethmg new.
It musr have jusr about jolted
them OUI or their chair., after
scanning the AP story to read of

had been sitting on their duffs.

I considered the end of rhe first

At any rate, I remember that
uncomfonable feeling about
becoming the news in 1985,
rather than reporting the news.
and it didn't bother me at all to
sec it end.
Still. becau<;e of the power of
the bowls and the apparent
forever lack of playoffs on the
Division I level, someone's got to
do ir. and thankfully they got it
