I s there anything more patriotic? I say there is not. Some holidays are complicated. Some are a little V'c1,gue. But the Fourth ofjuly is simple in its origin and crystal dear in its intent. It's America's bi.rthday! Am I honored to have my column fall right smack plunk on the Fourth of July? Please. I am way. way PETER beyond BUFFA honored. I am humbled and awestruck and almost at a loss for words, but unfortunately for you. not quite. Do you know what the chances are of the Fourth of July falling on a Sunday? 1ltree hundred sixty-six. divided by 12. times seven, then you have to, well, let's just say the odds are really. really small. ,, 'lltis being Am erica's day of days. I have nothing better to offer you than the story of where your uncle named Sam came from. in all his red-white-and-blue glory. and Iii~ birthday. which is this very day. Dur.ing the War of 1812, which . took place early in the early 1800s. a meat packer in Troy, N.Y., named Sam Wilson had a contract to s"upply the American troops with rations. In those days. meat was dried. salted and shipped in barrels. which I suspect was every bit as nac;ty as it sounds. Each barrel was stamped with a "U.S." mark. and the big joke among the troops was " ... tltis meal courtesy of Uncle Sam Wilson." Apparently. if didn't take much to make troops laugh in 1812. Sam Wilson was a tall. slender man with a white beard who always wore a top hat, which was very common at the time. Supposedly. Wilson was the inspiration for a number of cartoons at the time depicting the U.S. going toe-to-toe with the Brits. Over the years, the Uncle Sam character was decked out in ever-increasing red. white and blue. eventually from head to toe. The version we're most familiar with is the stem -looking Uncle Sam from the World War I and World War II recruiting posters. pointing his finger and saying. "I want you."

The task force is not out to ruin anyone's Independence Oay fun. authorities said, adding that Costa Mes a is one offew cities in the surrounding area that even allows fireworks, But what they don't want i!.> something to happen like las1 year. when a woman in Costa Mesa suffered second-and third-degree burns after a n accident with a sparkler. Dcp. Fi re Chief Gregg Stewart! told the Pilot as he stood near acres of dry grass at Fairview Park. The park is an area Cos ta Mesa authorities w ill watc h closely this year precisely because of the dry hrush there. Authorities are a lso reacting to a local outc ry in which some called for fireworks to be banned in the city. The council limited the stands to 40 and created new criteria for those who could apply while giving new teeth to the city ordinance. O n e ne w provision i.s that fireworks he discharge d only between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m. /\ { new item in the ordinance also banned the s ale of spinners and h and-held fireworks unless in approved assortnwnts.

Steward: We'll chedt ur on blork parties and make sure that everything is set up correctly and that we're aware of where they are all loca1cd.

As I mentioned in an earlier column, we have hired a young editor named Rym1 Carter as an assistant city editor. c.aner has been editing and planning the pagt!S for our Forum page and feature copy.

We have added on a new editor, )llmea lee, who will now handle the features In the paper. including columns like Best Buys. theater and 110Ciety and our weekly Happenings arts and entertainment section that runs on Fridays. Carter wfll continue to edit the Forum copy and will also edit news stories for the Pilot and our .. er paper. the Huntington Beach lndependent. Carter comes to us from Clendale, where he was a politics and business reporter for another sister paper, the News-Press. He's a UCI A gr.iduate (hear that Pllul Salata?), who started off more interested in mu.c;ic than news writing.

PEIRSOL, Pa1113 • Sunday, July 4, 2004 II THE BIG EA$Y Getting shot at success F ormer F.stancia High and Orange Coast College basketball star Ray Orgill one day found himself admiring one of a series of inspirational posters that Naismith Basketball Hall of Farner George Yardley had strewn around his office. He focused on the one displaying a gym adorned in red with the title, "Opportunity ... • Orgill, who had played under the colors of red at 8 tancia and Coast, couldn't help but admire the poster. an~ the message: "'You'll always miss· 100% of the shots if you don't take any: Yardley, never known to be bashful ROGER CARLSON when it came to taking his shots for Newport I !arbor High.

"Wow, I just said I liked it, 1 didn't say I wanted it," Orgill recaJled. Once described as an "unhappy gunner" as he pondered retirement from the Nae\ after just sever,t seasons because of the need to return home, whe1t: normality and a business future awaited, George Yardley has always seemed to have a partiality toward Orgill. the MVP of the JC state basketball tournament when the Pirates swept to the title in 1979. Yardley's son, Rob, was a teammate of Orgill's the previous year and Orgill. a business partner of Rob, recalls the traits which put the younger Yardley in a class by himself. "When Rob was a sophomore. he was a second-team player, but he hustled. II drove us crazy." said Orgill. who had been a leading starter on every team he ever played for. "'I le would run and fly into the stands while we watched it go out of bounds," Orgill continued. "lie wa<; always the first guy running lines lin practicel and we'd tell him, 'Hey. loosen up. will your "Rob aJways gave 100%. a super hard worker." One might surmise it's a matter of genes. or DNA. because no one can remember a shot Rob's dad, George. didn't feel was there for the taking as he broke Hank Luisetti's single-season scoring record at Stanford. George Yardley later became the first player to ever score over 2,000 point.s in a season when with the Detroit Pistons. George Yardley is presently battling Lou Gehrig's Disease and was known as the original "Bird,· who shot hls free throws underhanded while playing the game in the era of 1946-1961. Orgill said anolher nickname applies: Generous George. "Even at the very beginning (when o~ and Rob Yardley began a fire protection business on a major scalel, he had no stock in the !wholesale distributionl company, but he had the authority and made the decisions," Orgill said. "He provided the opponunity and the finances and I did the blue-collar work. "He gave you the parameters, then let you go and never looked over your shoulder." Yardley has always insisted a Ughter side of life prevail at his business meetings and, according to Orgill, "Would do anything for a joke.

"Bui I don't believe those will be hi.-. fa stest times this summer. I think he will be very. very fast at the Olympics." Peirsol has used his experience this past spring as motivation for the rest of the year. He battled through nausea at the NCAA championships March l7·, but still came through lo break his own short-course world record. I le won the 200 h a<:k in I :50.64 in a 25 ·meter pool. Olympic competition uses a 50-meter pool, known as long course. In March of 200l, Pcirsol set the long-course world record of I :55. I 5, which he will attempt to break in the l004 Games. Making a splash When Pcirsol began swimming, he was eager to become a freestyler, said Brian • Pajer, a coach with the Irvine Novaqualics when Peirsol.was 9. Pajer asked Peirsol to try other strokes. When Peirsol performed the backstroke. Pajer noticed something special. ·He was comfortable and really coordinated for a guy that age," said Pajer, who is the head coach of the UC Irvine swim teams.

Matthews, who will be a freshman next faJI and is con - sidl'ring attending high school at either Corona del Mar, Mater l>ei or Newport llarbor, has also strung together an impressive ll -match winning strt'ak, in · duding a recent titll' at till' Matthews had never mt.'t be- fore. "He was staying a rnuple feel behind the baseline, so I was able to dink some drop shots in to get him running all over the court," said Mallhcws. who ad- vanced tu the final with a 6 ·0 , 6·4 semifinal triumph Friday over Andrl' I .lomc.

"One of the first lessons I took here was on these courts. so I gm·ss I grew up playing here," he saicl. Mallhews built early lead s in both Sl'ts Saturday.

We had been working with him for only two months." Peirsol continued to break records. When he turned 13, Dave Salo, the Novaquatics head coach, began to talk about the Olympks with him. Salo told Peirsol he could make the Olympics and did his hest 1u feed the cunfidem:e uf the young swirmner. "I felt comfortable projecting that." Salo said. "You can't do that with every swimmer. Rut he's special. What has mac.Jc him different is that he has an:epicd the challenge of hcing th(' worlJ record holder in the backstroke. 1 le's different than most people. lfe's a confident. young ma11 . 1 le's not necessarily rocky. People tend lo think he'~ some sort of surfer dude, hccaus~ he's from Newport Beach, but I don"t lhink that's him. llc's just casual. And he has a lot of confidence." Pe irsol displayed h is confidence throughout the 2000 (lames and it has continued to build. In WOO. he hecame the youngest swimmer to go under two minutes in the 200 back. Truth be told, the then-lecn·aged Pcirsol motivated Krayzelburg in Austra lia. "Absolutely. he pushed me," said Kray.lelburg, who is now • training with Salo and will be competing in the Olympic trials. "Of course I was aware of him. lie was dropping seconds every time he went in the water. I le is tremendously special. In 2000, there was no ques tion, he was out there to win. I le was no kid." Finding motivation Peirsol has emerged from the shadow of Kray1,elburg and wants to remain the king of the backstroke. Along with that comes endorsements, which wilJ continue to grow if Peirsol wins one or more medals at the 2004 Olympics.
