Tomorrow is Labor Day, the official end of summer, unofficially speaking. ln honor of this important holiday. l wanted to do a moving PETER ode lo the indomitable spirit BUFFA and endJess energy of the American worker. but that sounded like a lot of work. Fortunately, I remembered doing a complete and slightJy-accurate history of the big L-Day some years ago, which we offer for your edification and enjoyment. maybe. once again. Labor Day was the brainchild of union organizer!> in this country in the late 19th century. It all started with an Irish piano maker by the name of Peter McGuire in the city we now know as New York, which at the time was called "New York.~ Working conditions in those days were atrocious and Peter M., for one. decided that enough is enough. whkh is enough. It was lhe same grind, day after day -find an elephant, drag him downtown, get the tusks. carve the keys. It was very hard work, for very long hours and very littJe pay. On Sept S. I 882. Pete and his fellow laho rers. who were also grumpy. organized the first "Labo r Day" parade. Thou~nds of workers and Pete marched up Broadway carrying signs that read "Labor Creates All Wealth" and "8 Hours Work, 8 Hours Rest, 8 Hours Recreation." and singing "This Land is Your Land" and "If I Had a Hammer." The part about the songs isn't true. I made that up. In 1894. President Qeveland declared Labor Day a national holiday. By the way, since we're talking about baseball, what do Babe Ruth, Grover Qeveland, and "Baby Ruth" candy bars have in common? They are all part of one of the great confusions of the 20th century. The candy bar was named after Oeveland's granddaughter. Ruth. who became America's darling at the tum of the century and was known as "Baby Rulh." By the l 920's, when Baby Ruth wasn't a baby anymore, she was almost forgotten and the candy bars had virtually disappeared. But the I 920's were also Babe Ruth's golden years and, somehow, an urban myth See COMMENTS, P11e A4 Nl>ETHE Pl.OT FORtat Costa MeN City Councilman Gary Monehen NVS he ls • Mrioustv considering• running for the county board of aupervfaora.

Krl1 O'Donnell Daily Pilot NEWPORT-MESA-With the advent of fiberglass came a boom in boat construction in Newport Beach and Costa Mesa. During its heyday, fiberglass boat making supported about 70 builders in the area. UThe first reinforcing material was conon soaked in a polyester resin,'' said 43-year fiberglass boat builder, Richard Valdes. In the mid 1950s Joseph McGlasson , of Costa Mesa, designed. built and successfully marketed a 24-foot wooden sailboat, the Islander, in Costa Mesa. Joseph catne to ponder the idea of building his boat out of fiberglass instead of wood and in 1961 approached a company named Glas Laminates (owned by Dick Valdes since 1958) to help him. McGlasson Boats -later Wayfarer Yacht, and finally named Islander Yachts in 1965 -and Columbia Yachts were not the only Costa Mesa boat builders using fiberglass. there was also Jensen Marine, with the Lapworth-designed Cal 24. MacGregor Yachts and Westsail who were all headquartered locally. MFiberglass made it easier to build boats," MacGregor said. "Start-ups were relatively inexpensive and the city of Costa Mesa helped us in any way it could. Today. regulations would preclude most [fiberglass) start-ups.• New boat companies sprung up everywhere from large lots to back yards. "You couldn't get down Placentia Avenue in the late I 960s," said MacGregor Yachts owner, Roger MacGregor. "There must have been a do1,en boat builders in a two-block radius of us. Every vacant lot had a boat in it.. Valdes said that everybody seemed to want to get into the ----r--- - - --- LOOKING BACK act Min the early days, It was not uncommon for someone to buy a finished boat, take a mold of the hull, make slight modifications and begin producing their own glass boats," Valdes said "Things were very loose in those days." Then came the sale, mergers and closures of more than SO boat manufacturers including venerable salllng names like Newport Boats, Jensen Marine, Islander Yachts, Coastal Recreation, Ericson Yachts and Glas par. Valdes said that all the big builders are gone due to a combination of escalating property taxes, high resin prices -I 960s price was about 16 cents per pound, today it's about 55 cents per po1111d - skyrocketing worker's compensation, rising state income tax and the institution of a 10% luxury tax on new boats in 1986, marked an end to the one-time djversity of the industry. 100% ~Ion 4 8 oa.

"Delusions of grandeur caused the demise of most firms. They grew out of control and sold to larger conglomerates." MacGregor and Valdes agreed that in the early days there were more than 70 boat builders in the Newport-Mesa area.

Is II better to remodel your existing home or to find the home that answers your needs and move 1010 it? Truly1 you will benefit by d1scussmg the mailer at some length with your real estate advisor, but let's look at a few of the more obvious considerations. The reality is that )'.OU are usually bet1er off fi nding another home that Lruly meets your needs and wishes. You can do the necessary research and wind up very confident that your next home's vaJue hasn t been di storted by additions to or sublractions from its original design, and isn't out of llne with tlie vaJue of other homes in the same neighborhood. Further, you don t ha ve the problem of lfY.ing to fit square ~gs into ex1 sftng round holes, or newborn children into former closets. By far the most important issue is to know exactry what you need yo ur new (or remodeled) liome to provide you. The second issue 1s sheer economics. Not only do you need to see whether you can get the money back our of Y.Our ftouse that you put into it in a remodel, but you also need to look at markeC conditions. Is it reasonably easy_ to sell this home today ? How easy or difficult is 11 to buy anofher? What would the differences be between financing your remodel and financrng the purchase of another liome? Again, be sure to talk with your real estate advisor about these questions. Just call me at 949- 533-I 200 or visit my websites at davewong4.com or onefordroad.com.

EDITORIALS New compromise good for the city and homeowners C osta Mesa residents have been given the runaro und and forced to leap hurdles for far too long because of the city's generic home -expansion rules. But the City Council and city staff m ay have finally found a sound solution that should appease those who want to expand their homes and their 11eighbors who want to protect Ll 1eir privacy. Put simply, the changes !>implify the design standards so that those who want to add a second-story addition that doesn't exceed 50% of the first-story floor area can do so witJ1out seeking permission from the roning administrator. ·1 liey can instead gain permission from the city's planners. They also will only have to notify the i.rrunediate neighbors of the plans. Previously, many seeking the 1.uning administrator's OK ended up before the Planning Commission and. quite often. the City Council. Th e new d 1anges will make the process ra~ier and quicker in many <.cu.cs. 1 hose projects that seek exceptions or are located in the Avicmore Terrace/Glen Eagle Terrace neighborhood will have to notify m ore homeowners in the neighborhood and, in many cases, will end up a t a Planning Commission meeting. But all of these moves aid basic property rights. Ho meowners who wish to add onto their residences for either their growing families or to send their home values upward should be able to do so. It's their right. At the same time, if the hom eowners ask fo r something beyond their right -an exception to the rules -their neighbors' rights, too. are p reserved. The laws have been too frie ndly to the neighbors in the past and have forced residents to reconsider expanding their homes for fear of a drawn-out battle with their ne ighbors before the entire city at p ublic meetings. There's no need fo r that. All in all, the city, the Planning Commissio n and the City Council have reached wise compromises that should appease many. At the very least1 even those who oppose the changes should a pplaud and welcome their efforts to create a balance of rights on each side of the fence. Time to complete theater dream I t used to be that the closest Costa Mesa got to national publicity was when South Coast Plaza was mentioned i11 ads for high-end stores. That is no longer true. 1oday, with the growth of the Orange CoWlty Performing Arts CeJiter and South Coast lh'pertory. Costa Mesa routinely ~its alongside other major tJ1cater venues, including New York. Seattle, Olicago and Los Angeles. It is not unusual for a show that is making only a handful of stops to play at the I •crforming Arts (.enter. Last week, Costa Mesa's rise to promine nce in the arts edged a uociceable step higher with the approval of changes to the Scgerstrorn Town c.enter plan. This development, which received initial City Council backing in February 200 J, would cement the area as a theater district by adding a hotel and retail sho ps to a pedestrian-oriented cultural arts area that also will showcase the new symphony hall and a museum. It also wiU include, as part of the proposal the Planning Commission sent alo ng to the City Council , Scott's Seafood, which had been scheduled for demolition. The good news from the week will amount to little m ore than a promising opening act, however, if city leaders and officials with the Segerstrom Co. don't take advantage of the moment and p ush to get the d owntown theater district built. The re has been enough talk and debate, which has delayed the plans for more than two years. The city, and the county, deserve a world -class arts center. The time is right for the City Council to give it to them.

BOLTON COMMUNITY COMMENTARY An update from City Hall T his is the time of the year when . many people go on vacation and tourists invade Newpon Beach (that's a good thing): however, there seems to never be a lack of issues involving the city. I thought this might be a good time to give you an update as to a number of those issues. • Senior housing As you may have read. lhe Coastal Commission at the most recent hearing relative to the affordable senior housing project on Lower Bayview Landing continued the issue until the first week in October, which has now been moved to the first week in November. The most recent hearing was pretty much a disaster. as the Coastal Commission made it very clear to use that our project would not go forward. We will be submitting a new revised plan, which will reOect 120 rental units as opposed to I 50, in two buildings as opposed to three buildings. As with the original plan, our intent is to create a very real and significant wetland which would be environmentally sensitive. In addition, as in the original plan. there will be bike trails and walking paths. This is a project the entire city can be proud of. If the project does pass. and that is a big if. in a best-case scenario, the delay. as a resuJt of the complaint filed against our project by a local resident. will result in an additionaJ $500,000 st.ate· manda ted costs due to prevailing wages plus an additional $125.000 to $200.000 in additional costs. Ouch. • Eelgrass: If you have been following the eeJ grass issue, we have a very difficult situation. in that the eelgrass. although not endangered. is protected. Eelgrass is healthy fo r the fish and helps clean the water. However. it has become a disaster to boating as well as private and public enterprise in our harbor. As an example. if you own a dock. either residential or commercial. and you have eel grass within I 5 feet of that dock. you can expect to spend anywhen! from $15,000 to $40,000 when you are ready to dredge. This ls compared to what ~ $2,000 or $.1.000. This is due to requirements by st.ate and federal agencies. We have been trying to work with these agencies; however, we seem to be getting pushed back ea.ch time we do that. My sen-<ie Is that we have to approach this issue on a pretty 8erlous rederal level. and to tha1 end. I bad ~ed a meeting wtth Rep. Outs Cox In an attempt to seek fedenl us.imnce. We met on Mlg. 18,2003. In attendance wen myaelt our city manager, Ulistant dty manaeu, our htubor resources manager and his .-anr. our Halbor C'.orrunilelon dUpenon. a member of the ~Cod Rtehy .WO. and the Olllnbet ot~ Manne DMlion repeeenladYe. We requested boCh lhort· and Jong·tmn retie(. In lhe abon tmn. Cm 11 Pll to alleq>C to .eaft I bMeliM for wha.t ~be ·----snount ol eelgra5.' to exi~t. at least at the areas near dodc..s. Right now, if there is oruy a handful of eelgrass within 15 feet of your dock. you fall Into the big numbers for dredging The shon·tenn STEVE goal is to secure a BROMBERG • derninimis" foundation. lfJ.hi.c; occurs, and if a dock owner has oruy a"dernin.irnis"asnount of eel~ present. then the draconian type permitting process from the oulSide agencies would no longer require the present fonn of mitigation. ~wning, of course. the state accepts the federal standard. This would probably take care or 80% to 90% of the commercial and residential dock.s within Newport Harbor. This is very signi6cant, as the long·tenn approach would be to set a true baseline to determine just what is a reasonable amount of eel grass to have within the harbor, and once we can establish that. we can then engage in a harbor area - management plan. That would allow us to move forward and work toward issues of dredging and so many other harbor related issues. Cox was truly concerned with our plight, as he does recognize that. considering we have 9,000 to 10.000 pleasure boats as well as many commercial boats in the harbor, eelgrass. if not controlled. could severely impact both pleasure and commen:e within our twbot and since our harbor is unique. a spec;:ial dispensation should exist. • Upper Castaways pa.rte: This is the area off of Dover across from Bob Henry Park. If you have been following this iMue. there is a "turf war" of sorts going on. Right now, there are on)y native plan~ throughout and much of those have pretty much died off. There are some folks who want us to simply leave the area as is. some wish to have regular grass planted in a very limited area and some would lie to see a combination or diJferent types or natural plandnp. The City Council had a full and very produc:dve llUdy eesalon on this Issue, whJch reeulted In ftve eepaiate opdons on how we could proceed. 'fbtn WIS a gre&t dell of pubUc cUla.-'on It the teudy tellion, and the issue will be coming bed tn the near future to the O ty CouncO for a (UJJ pubUc he8rlng. J llMpeCt this will Involve a healthy debate, u there ~ many people who have man dfVMe ldieM • to how ... petk lhould look. • Genen1 ftln Update: Many or the resldents In the city are aware o( this~. 81 the ptOCeM bu~ 80b1I on for aboul two )'9111. every dty" required to update lts ~ plan.

Their task is by no means an easy one and requires extreme dedication. Just imagme being part or a committee of 38 people who come from diverse backgrounds who will ultimately be placed in a position of unity (hopefully), forwarding their final recommendations to the City Council as to how the city should "look" in the future. It will probably be another 1 to I ~ years before that proc~ LS complete. • G· I Policy: The G-1 Policy relales to trees tn our city. We have about 40,000 city trees and there are issues relative to tree removal. reforestation (that LS the process of replacing a tree when one or more trees are removed). tree trimming. as well as the issue of views that are affected by trees. The Par\s, Beaches and Recreation C..Ommisslon fanned a !>Ub-comminee which has been worlong with this issue and which has been holding pubUc h~ 1ltls is one of those issues where once again. many people have many different Ideas as to how oui policy should be changed or even left alone. This will be coming to the Qty Council in the very near future, and I also expect a spirited debate. •Local Coast.al P\an: All cities that exist within the coastal wne. and that of course. indudes Newport Beach, are required to have a Local Coastal P!an. This issue Is overseen by the califomia Coastal Commission, and relates to ls.sues such as land use. public access. parldng. water related facilities and just about anything that can occur at or near the water.

Without an opponent to slam hel- mets with during the preseason, the Pi- rates have been rel - • egated to two intrasquad scrim- mages. the second of which occurred Sat· urday inside LeBard Stadium on the OCC campus. But the hits were anything but slight as they rattled up the bleachers and Pirates' head coach Mike Tuytor observed an offense that showed it could move the ball and a defense that displayed hitting prow- ess in front of an estimated 75 onloolc- ers. "The hitting was crisp and I was very pleased with the offense, we moved the ball twice on long drives," Taylor said. "These guys have been going at each other for two weeks, so it will be good to get a common opponent next week.· Coast opens at Glendale at 1 p.m. next Saturday. Taylor limiLed Saturday's scrimmage to 53 plays, down from the original plan of 70 plays to limit players' chances of sustaining any injuries. The Pirates also scrimmaged Aug. 23, when they ran 48 plays.. Freshman quarterback Beau Budde, who helped lead San Oemente High to the CIF Southern Section Division n semifinals last fall, capped an impres- sive. sustained drive with a 15-yard touchdown toss to 6-foot-2, 220-pound freshman Justin Humalon. Humalon reached over the defender's head to grab the ball and also draw a pass inter- ference penalty that was declined. Budde will most likely start when Coast opens its season at Glendale.

Sept 1 honotte JUNIOR TAGALOA Sunday, August 31 , 2003 81 THE BIG EASY Timing is right for Stats 101 W ith the preps embroiled in fall football practice. it seems the right time to bring up the subject of statistics. Every team has a handfuJ of parents eager to keep track. and most usually have an assistant coach in charge of the team's "official" statistics. As you read these items I know you know, but you'd be surprised how many others don't know. so this ts for them. Probably the <;tat most messed up comes in the kicking , . game. For instance, tf you're on your opponent's 30-yard line you'll be going ROGER for a 47-yard field goal, because the CARLSON kick 1s credited from the point of contact to the end of the end w ne. It includes a seven-yard sna p and a 10-yard distance from the goal line to the goal post. However, if the snap is muffed, the kicker picks up the ball, runs around a little while, then punts the balJ into I.he end wne, it's a 30-yard punt even though the ball comes out to the 20. That's because punter's stats are good from the line of scrimmage to the point of contac1. In this case. past the goal line. You'd be surprised how many times a complaint wouJd emerge over punting, the caller believing the pu nt ts from the point of the kick. as opposed to the line of scrimmage. A blocked punt, recovered or picked up 15 yards behind the line of scrimmage. is a punt for minus 15 yards. Very tough on the average. Yardage gained with punt returns or fumble returns are "return yardage" and are not counted in the rushing game. It's a separate category. wtuch can be counted when you consider "all-purpose yardage." which is running, receiving. passing, and return yardage. as well as kickoff returns. all bundled up in one category. In the passing game. the completion gain is for the total play from the line of scrimmage. But if it's a hook and ladder, the passing gain is to the hook. and the trailing runner is given a carry from scrimmage for the balance of the run. But the quarterback gets yardage credit for the total play. The big one in the passing game is the lateral pass. which isn't a pass. Underhanded or overhanded, if the ball is pitched behind the passer, the receiver becomes a runner and it's a run from scrimmage. Here's the logic: lf the lateral pass is dropped it's a fumble if the ball was passed behind the passer. But if It's truly lateral. or ahead of the passer. it's See EASY, Pa1• 82 Bill Johns is a former Newport Harbor High football player on the llldefeated 1994 team.

Needless to say, there are potential disasters with the backward pass. 'IWo-point passes or two-point runs don't count statistically. at all. The runner simply ran for 120 yards on 12 carries, and had two two-point runs. Or, the passer was J 2 for 20 for 150 yards and two interceptions, and, threw a pair of two-point conversions. If the quarterback is sacked on the two-point conversion P.lay, it's just a failed two-pointer, that's all. back to win Former Sea Kings standout wins final two sets to record upset of No. 15 seed. • Former Corona del Mar ·High standout Tu.ytor Dent upset lSth- seeded Fernando Gonzalez of Olile Saturday in five sets to reach the fourth round of the U.S. Open, where he will possibly face No. 1 seed Andre Agassi. . Dent had taken a one-set advan- tage and was serving at 5-4 in the second set when play was halted. When the players rerumed to the col.lft. three hours and three minutes later, Gonzalez broke serve and went on to win the tie- breaker to even the match at 1-1. If the passer goes back and is thrown for a loss (sacked) of three yards, it's a three-yard loss rushing. If you're on the 50 and you pass to your tight end, who catches the ball at the 20 and races in for a touchdown, you have some figuring to do if there is a penalty on the play. SEAN HILLER I DAILY PILOT Plays like this one, a scramble for the ball involving Newport Harbor·High's Spencer Link' (6) against Laguna Hills, keep sportswriters 'On their toes while covering football games. Dent, who had never made ft past the second round in five previous U.S. Open tourna- ments, came back to defeat Gon- zalez, 7-6 (11 -9), 6-7 (3-7). 3--6, 7-6 (7-4), 6-4. in a match that lasted more than three hours, 20 minutes and that's not including a long rain delay that took the momentwn away from Dent in the second set li'al.ling two sets to one and taking advantage of Gonzales' in- ability to brealc serve -he con- verted on just three on 18 oppor- tunities -Dent came back to win the fourth set in a tiebreaker and then closed out the match with a 6-4 victory in the ftpa1 set. ln his prevfoi.ts appearances at the U.S. Open, Dent had reached the second round twice, in 1998 and 200 l, but this was his first foray into the third round. Gon· zaJez, whom Dent had never played before, was a quarter· finalist last year. This is Dent's best performance in a Grand Slam. He's ranked 74th in the world. Anything marked off at the Line of scrimmage, of course, negates the play. But it the flag is thrown 10 yards deep and the ball is marched back 15 yards to your45, then it's a 10-yard passing play, less the penalty. The passer's stats are good for 10 yards. and the receiver's stats ar.e good for I 0 yards. If you're counting first downs, keep in mind, if in fact the play ended just short of the end zone and you would have had a first down had you not scored, it's also a first down. At one time when CIF playoff games ended in a tie, a team would advance by virtue of first downs. Thankfully, it didn't last long and they figured out a better way to settle things. As for the placement of the ball, keep this in mind. lf you're two inches from paydirt, you're still on the I -yard line. lf all of the ball is one inch past midfield, you're on the 49. Jt took me a lot of time to buy into it, but it works out in the long run. Those are probably the most common things you need to know. Just make sure you get the right passer, the right receiver and the right runner. I'll never forget covering a Costa Mesa game once when Neil Peek was the coach in the '60s and he had switched bis quarterback's jersey with another because he didn't want the other coach to know he didn't have his first-liner, who was injured, in the game. The replacement had a great game, but you would never have known it if you picked up the paper and read about it. Because the coach never let on, not even after the game. Quotes, notes, stats, the works, were all credited to the wrong quarterback.. A belated correction was published, but it hardly seemed to suffice. Parents often believe that it is the stat that counts when determinations are made in terms of college scholarships. Stats. and individual honors. Neither ranks very high with college recruiters.
