Costa Mesa Fire Capt. Fred Seguin, left, shakes hands with Rep. Dana Rohrabacher, right, as
Rohrabacher presents him with a U.S. flag that flew over the Capitol in Washington, D.C.

DHpa Bharath

COSTA MESA -Three fire en·
gines were probably just a drop
in the buclcet when it came to
fighting wildfires that consumed
several thousand acres of land,
homes, property and lives this
year.
"But, ultimately. we suc·
ceeded," Costa Mesa Fire Oiief
Jim Ellis said.
The raging fires in San Bernar·
dino, which Costa Mesa firefight-
ers helped combat. and others in
Simi VaJJey and San Diego that
ravaged Southern California,
were finally quelled thanks to the
heroic efforts of hundreds of
brave men and women, Ellis
said.
Costa Mesa's firefighters were
recogniz.ed on Wednesday by
Rep. Dana Rohrabacher. who
thanked them for their efforts
during a special ceremony at the
Vanguard Fire Station. He pre-
sented each of the engines' three
captains with a U.S. Oag that had
flown over the Capitol in Wash-
ington. D.C
"When it comes to our cities
and communities, the police offi-
cers and firefighters are our first
line of defense,· Rohrabacher
said. "These firefighters and
many others did a great job in a
situation where so many lives
were at stake."
The presentation of the llags
was his way of saying "thank
you" to the firefighters, Rohra-
bacher said. He had made a simi-
lar presentation at Palos Verdes
and is scheduled to present flags
to the Orange County Fire Au-
thority as well as to Huntington
Beach and Fountain Valley fire-
fighters who fought the wild.fires.
Rohrabacher told Costa Mesa
firefighters that they have won
the appreciation and gratitude of
local communities.
He also emphasized the need
for communities to be prepared
for emergencies.
"The war that we're in is not
only overseas,• he said. "It's also
here at home. So. we need to be
prepared.·
Fire Capt Eric Johnson said he
was touched by the congress-
man's gesture.
•it's not very often that you get
a congressman coming out here
and thanking us.• he said.
Johnson, who was in one of the
engines that helped fight the ''old
fire,· said the intensity of the
blaze was comparable to some of
the biggest fires in Southern Cali-
fornia's history. A 23-year veteran
of the departtnent, Johnson
fought the fires in Big Sur ln 1985
and the Laguna Beach fire in
1993.
Firefighters do what they do
with no expectations, PJlis said.
"We did our jobs, and we love
doing what we do," he said. ·sut
ir's awesome when you have any-
one take the time to say thank
you.· ·

author of the reply uw veteran
S~n tditor Francis Olurch. The
p(ece um reprinted annually
unril the paper went out of
bltsiness in 1949. We've decided

:near Editor,
,I am 8 years old. Some of my
little friends say there Is no Santa
Claus. Papa says, "If you see it in
The Sun, it's so.• Please teU me
the truth, is there a Santa Oaus?
-VIRGINIA O'HANLON
;VLTginia, your little friends are
wrong. They have been affected bY the skepticism of a skeptical
age. They do not believe except
they see. They think that nothing ccin be which is not
comprehensible by their little
minds. All minds, Vrrginia.
wt\ether they be men's or
children's. are little. In this great
unlverse of ours, man is a mere
insect, an ant, in his intellect as
compared with the boundless
world about him. as measured
by the intelligence capable of
grasping the whole of truth and
knowledge.
Yes, Vtlginia. there is a Santa
Oaus. He exists as certainly as
love and generosity and
devotion exist, and you know
that they abound and give to
yow: life Its highest beauty and
joy. Alas! how dreary would be
the world if there were no Santa
Oaus! It would be as dreary as If
there were no Vtrginias. There
would be no childlike faith then,
no poetry, no romance to make
tolerable thls existence. We
sh ould have no enjoymen1.
except in sense and sight The
external light with which
childhood fills the world would
be extinguished.
Not believe in Santa Oaus!
You mJght as well not believe in
fairies. You might get your papa
to hire men to watch in all the
chimneys on Christmas eve to
catch Santa Oaus. but even if
you dJd not see Santa Qaus
coming down, what would that
prove? Nobody sees Santa O aus,
but that is no sign that there is
no Santa Qaus. The most real
things in the world are those
that neither children nor men
can see. Did you ever see fairies
dancing on the lawn? Of course
not, but that's no p roof that they
are not there. Nobody can
concejve or imagine all the
wonders there are unseen and
unseeable in the world.
You tear apart the baby's rattle
and see what makes the noise
inside, but there is a veil
covering the unseen world
which not the strongest man,
r1or even the united strength of
all the strongest men that ever
lived could tear apart. Only faith,
poetry. love. romance, can push
aside that curtain and view and
picture the supernal beauty and
glory beyond. Is il all real? Ah,
Virginia, in all this world there is
nothing else real and abiding.
No Santa Oaus! Thank God!
he lives and lives forever. A
thousand years from now,
Virginia. nay I 0 times I 0,000
years from now, he will continue
to make glad the heart of

readers answer the
question: "What do
you think a bout
Costa Mesa's
red-light cameras?
Y es, the cameras are\
good thing. I've noticed a
lot lately in the past year
that in the intersections of 17th
and 19th streets, there are a lot
or red lights that have been run.
resulting In acciden ts. It's very
scary to drive here In Costa Mesa
with the way that these people
drive and run red Ugb~.
I think the cameras are great.
Please do not take out the
cameras. They need to be there
for the safety of our community.
And the drivers who do continue
to run the red lights should be
ticketed by the Costa Mesa
Police Department so that they
can learn their lessons and not
run red lights and cause
acclden tA.
We have a lot or hieb schools:
Costa Mesa. Estancia High and
Newport Hatbor. These are our
youths drtvlng. and we don't
want anything to happen to
them. So please, keep the
red-JJght camera system -It's a
good thing.

create an industry to co411ter
this police action against our
private rights. I hope that
enough people call the Pilot or
let the police know that this is
not something the general
public feels is in accord with
living In America and being free
people.
And if the police feel that
these Intersections are unsafe.
then put a policeman there on a
motorcycle and let him catch
the offenders in the way we
normally catch people who
break the law.
ROGER GORSKI
Newport Beach
I think that they are an
excellent Idea. t wish we could
get them at a whole bunch more
Intersections, and I do hope that
Baker Street and Harbor
Boulevard Intersections are close
on the list. You sit there and look
at a green light In front of you
and see cars -four and five of
them -stilJ making a left tum
across the intersection. Jt ls not
only dangerous but frustrating.
JOYCEWOOO
Costa Mesa
I think they are an excellent
Jdea. I think the basic idea Is to
have laws obeyed and have
safety. And if we can have
somebody assist the police in
doing that. it'I entirely
appropriate. So, I think the
· cameras can only man thintP
safer. And we get better safety
with fewer poUce. I've been
known to coast through atop
signs and stUff. but on the other
twid. lf we• tt up where that

No~hing scary about Croatia
Ken and laura Perry at Pfivice Lat(es in Croatia.
dy Ken Perry
When my wife, Laura.
and I decided to take a
land tour of Croatia
and the Adriatic coast, peo ple
asked if we were afraid to go and
wondered why we'd want to go
to Croatia anyway.
Fighting in the countries of
the former Yugoslavia is over,
although Bosnia-Herzegovina
and Kosovo are under the
protection of troops from NATO
and the United States. Tour
companies don't take tourists to
dangerous places.
We had a wonderful time, and
at no time did we sense any fear
or antagonism against
Americans.Serbo-Croatian is a
difficult language, but almol>I
everyone we met spoke English
and seemed genuinely glad to
see American tourists.
The reason we wanted to go to
Croatia was simply to see
Dubrovnilc. which we had not
been able to visit while on a
Mediterranean cruise in 1991. lt
had been scheduled to stop at
Dubrovnik but couldn't because
of the civil war that broke out in
Yugoslavia among different
ethnic groups. When the flier
arrived advertising for a land
tour of Croatia and the Adriatic
coast, we jumped at the
opportunity.
While on our amazing trip, we
saw many thlngs we'd never
even thought of before, such as
Lake Bled and Triglav National
Park in Slovenia, the Plivice
Lakes National Park in Croatia,
the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro.
many waJJed cities in addition to
Dubrovnik. and the Opatija and
Dalmatian Rivieras on the
Adriatic. The palace of
Diocletian in Split, Croatia was
another high point. Roman
Emperor Diocletian built the
palace.
Ling is an area where there is
much interest in yachting and
cruising but few places to cruise
to. We were fascinated by the
I .200 Croatian off-shore islands.
which protect the mainland
from waves, that people can
cruise. There Is no tidal range in
the Adriadc Sea, so buildings
and marinas can be built right to
the edge of the water, which is
similar ro fronting at Lake
Arrowhead.
There are several attractive
and well-kept marinas up and
down the coast. We were
swprised to find few
commercla.I fishing boats
because fishermen now fonn
cooperatlvet to operate large
fishing boats, which sell their
fish abroad, making high-quality
local sea!ood hard ro find.
The local food Is good and
plentiful. It seemed as though
everyone made brandy at home
from plwna, cherries, apples,
walnuts, honey and anything
else they Could find. Some of the
wine was very good. despite
being homemade.
Thutism was up this year after
having been depressed since the
start of the breakup of
Yugoslavia and au~uent
fighting, which began in 1991.
New hotels are being built along
the coast, and ft is obvious that
the coast of Croatia and
Montenegro Is again going to
become a major tourist
destination ror American
travelers.a.sit bas been
historically for Italians, Israelis

F rom the middle to the outside to
+.r-anywhere on the court, Newport
Harbor HJgh senior Alyson Jennings
had it covered.
The setter and outside hitter on
Newport's 2003 girls volleyball team
completed her prep career in style, being
named Sea View League Player of the Year
after ieadlng the Tars to the CIF ~uthem
Section Dtv\sion ll-AA final and then to
the quanerfinals of the OF State Division
II championships.
The University of Texas signee is a
repeat Dream Team honoree and tops this
season's Newport-Mesa squad as Player of
the Year.
Newport Harbor's Jennings heads
star-studded, eight-player field.
Joining Jennings on the eight-player team are
Newport teammates Lauren MWer and Emily
Turner, the only other senJors in "addition to
Jennings, Corona del Mar's Jordan Smith and
Und.sey Ensign, Costa Mesa's Jackie Havens and
Sage Hill's c.atherlne Dailey and Sophia
Hillgren.
Jennings made the CJF Division ll first team
for a second consecutive year as Newport won
at least a share of its 10th league title in the last
11 years.
"She does a lot of dllferent things and that Is
the best thing about her.· said NewporrCoach
Dan Glenn, who has guided Jennings for four
varsity seasons.
Glenn saJd Jennings, a repeat first-team
all-league selection, resembles Tur standouts
Misty May and April RoM more than Kristin
McOune, the OF Dlvislon ll Co-Player of the
Year in 2002 who ls now at Pepperdine
University.
•Alyson is not as physical as (May and RoMI
but she is In that mold," Glenn said.
Newport senior outside hitter Lauren Miller,
also a repeat Dream Team selection, fought
through ti;ndinids In the knees at the beginning
of the season to steadily progress and earned
first-team All-CIF recognJtfon. Miller, a repeat
first-team all-league honoree. tallied a
team-high 16 lcills and fow service aces In a
five-game victory against Edison In the Division
11-M -semlfinals.
Glenn used Miller at middle blocker at the
beginn.tng of the season to add some height -
she ls 5-foot-11 -but moved her back outside
toward the end of the season.
MWer, a two-year varsity starter, began
serving I 5 feet behind the service line In the
preseason and found a groove, making It
difficult, at times, for opposing teams to return
the ball.
•r try to have kids do different things and she
was real effective baclc there," Glenn saJd
"There is more time for the opponent to thi.nJc.
which can disrupt the rhythm.•
Another outside hiner that caused havoc for
opposing teams to defend was Corona del Mar's
Jordan Smith, a repeat Dream learn selection
and three-year varsity member. She earned her
second consecutive first-team All-Pacific Coast
League honor as the Sea ~· main weapon
