The stories about dumb criminaJs, that is, and "dumb" is being kind. The latest saga of a man gone bad and a crime gone worse happened right here - on Balboa Peninsula. Randall Gregory Bigelow is from Vandalia, m. I don't PETER know where it is either. other BUFFA than the lliinois part. Last month, Bigelow decided to visit Newport Beach. If I lived in Vandalia, I'd try to get to Newport Beach just as often as I could, too. On Jan. 29. Bigelow did a bad thing. He walked into the Best Western on Balboa Peninsula, pulled out a gun. and handed the desk clerk a robbery note. The cleric. being a smart clerk. emptied the cash drawer and handed Bigelow $286, which was nothing to write home to Vandalia about. As Bigelow excused himself, the clerk asked him his name. Bigelow suspected it was a trick. "Just give them that paper," Bigelow said "TI1at's all they need to know about m e." As Bigelow disappeared down the boulevard of Balboa, the clerk examined the note more closely and saw that it was scribbled on a form letter. The letter was from the filinois DMY. notifying Bigelow that his license had been suspended. The letter also had his driver's license photo on it. Leaving a fingerprint or a hair behind at the scene of the crime is bad. Leaving a letter from the OMV behind with your name, address. phone number and photo on it is awful. But this wasn't the end of Bigelows crime spree. It was jusr the beginning. It's a long way from Vandalia to Newport Beach, and Bigelow didn't come all that way to botch just one crime. Later that day, "he allegedly made employees at a gas station in Fontana fill his veh.icle al gunpoint On Jan. 30, he is said to have robbed a hotel in El Segundo," said Newport Beach Police Sgt. Steve Shulman. So how did Randall Gregory Bigelow reach the end of the line, See COMMENTS, Pa1e M INSIDE THE PILOT FORUM Rep.

The Dover Shores community got together for an event honoring Capune, who has been serving as the lifeguard at a private beach in Dover Shores for-30 years. Every Tuesday night during the summer months, Capune also hosted a movie night. where he served hot dogs and showed movies on a wall at the beach. His ~ stretch of sand Dover Shores residents gather to honor their beloved lifeguard, Larry Capune June C11a1rande Daily Pilot L ong after he is gone, this will always be Larry's beach. For 28 years. a 150-foot stretch of sand in Dover Shores has been defined by the man who guarded its swimmers, baby-sat the community's children and taught youths to swim, paddle and row. He is Larry Capune. the man who captured the awe of the nation by paddle boarding down both coasts in the 1960s, '70s and '80s. Bur to the members of the Dover Shores community, he'll always be Lifeguard Larry. At the beginning of the year, Capune learned that melanoma was ravaging much of his body: bones, lungs, brain. The prognosis is not good. But even if the cancer. as expected, ends his life, the residenls of Dover Shores want Lifeguard Larry to know that he'U always live on in their hearts. "He's a truly unique person who has been really important to all the residents here and especially the kids,· said Dan Converse, chairman of the Beach Committee of the Dover Shores LARRY'S BEACH: A placard describing Capune will be placed at the beach at Dover Shores, which will also be named after him.

TOP STORY "It was reaJJy nice. lnere were people all over the place. People I hadn't seen for years," capune said. The celebration for Capune was. no doubl, a celebration of his life. Many of the grown-ups running around had once been the children he guarded and trained on the beach. Besides lhe catered Mexican dinner. there were also barbecue hot dogs just like the barbecues capune himself hosted at the beach countess times over the years. And. dearest of aJJ 10 Capune. the beach party included a showing of the movie, ·•so Dear 10 My Hean," to relive lhe many movies Capune himself included in his beach parties over the years. "ll1e movies were always really popular. a really good time," Capune said. Outside of Dover Shores, Capune is known as the man who paddle boarded down the West Coast, then down the East Coasl, lhen down the coasts again, racking up unforgettable adventures that will live on in his stories.

The responsibility the s tale put before us is not to protect homeowners. nor to punish park owners; it is to exact faJme5s to both parties when a mobUe home park is closed. The ordinance before the Planning Commission last Monday went wl'll beyond what the state requires, and contains elements which are punitive toward park owners. The ordlnance, if it Is finally adopted, will have negative impacts on park owners, whkh they will mo t certainly pass on to their residents. In closing, we need to bear in mind that many times an evil Is made worse by the remedies used. A reasonable ordJnance will serve all parties well. and if such ordinance Is unveiled, It will have my full support.
