The kindness of a stranger
Dear Editor:
I am a junior at Scripps College in Clare-
mont and the other day I walked from cam-
pus to Trader Joes to purchase my weekly
groceries.
For some reason, my credit card was de-
nied at the register. I called my bank and
was put on and off hold for over an hour. I
am a Type 1 Diabetic and my blood sugar
was low, and the only food I had was the
groceries that I was unable to buy with the
block put on my credit card.
After being put on hold for the third time,
I broke down crying. As a college student,
it can be really hard being away from home
and thrown into an environment where you
dont have your family around to help you
out in such situations.
As I sat outside Trader Joes, a man came
out and offered to pay for my groceries.
When I tried to get his contact information
to pay him back, he told me that he under-
stood how hard it was to be a student, and
that he didnt want repayment. That was
one of the nicest things anyone has ever
done for me, and I am so grateful that there
are such good people out in the world.
I am so appreciative, and I hope I can fol-
low suit and reach out to someone else like
that man did for me. Thank you!

Building a bigger drought
Dear Editor:
Lakes and rivers at an all-time low.
Plants and trees gasping for water. Serious
drought being blasted in our ears on a con-
stant basis. Water bills skyrocketing, (espe-
cially for the chosen ones of Claremont).
Farmers worried about their future and
livelihood. $500 fines for washing cars or
anything deemed unnecessary. Grocery
prices steadily rising.
Hey ,Claremont, hey, California, I have a
solution...Lets build multi-unit housing de-
velopments and office buildings on every
conceivable piece of available land so that
tens of thousands of more people need pre-
cious water! Problem solved.

Negotiate better rates
Dear Editor:
As a champion of the private sector,
lower taxes and less government interven-
tion in our lives, I abhor eminent domain
by our government in almost all cases. It is
my opinion, however, that Golden State
Water has been racketeering in Claremont
and that, since the PUC is allowing it, the
citizens of Claremont need to take control.
We need to overwhelmingly vote yes
on Measure W on November 4. As I said,
the citizens of Claremont need to take con-
trol. However, on November 5, I do not
necessarily believe that control means the
purchase of the water system. I believe it
is a certainty that Measure W will pass with
a substantial margin and, after it does, the
citizens will now have the control we need.
Armed with the cash after November 4
to be able to force the sale of the water sys-
tem from Golden State, maybe we should
then explore a binding and scalable water
rate negotiation contract in lieu of a pur-
chase.
Both Upland and La Verne have enviable
water rates from their municipally-owned
water systems that Im sure the vast major-
ity of Claremont residents would accept in
a heartbeat. Why not negotiate a binding
controlled rate with Golden State based on
the average of the rates paid by Upland and
La Verne residents and businesses?
Within this averaged rate, we could also
require that Golden State perform an equal
percentage amount for the maintenance, re-
pairs and replacement for their system as
Upland and La Verne do. As part of the
agreement, we could require Golden State
to equal or exceed the water quality stan-
dards and service times of the public water
companies in both Upland and La Verne.
Because of private sector efficiency vs.
public sector efficiency, I believe Golden
State could still make an acceptable profit
and Claremont could continue to receive
great quality water at a much-reduced price.
Golden State may simply refuse to ne-
gotiate and force our hand to pursue emi-
nent domain, in which case, I believe we
should go forward with eminent domain
proceedings.
However, I believe the ultimate goal of
Claremont citizens should be the ability to
maintain control of competitive water rates
in lieu of the ownership, maintenance and
operation of their own public system.

Claremonts youth stand front-and-center at council meeting
C
laremont is known for its high
level of civic engagement, and the
citys youngest residents are no
exception. Whether it is saving a life or
saving a landmark, Claremont kids are
ready to spring into action.
Never has that been more evident than at Tuesday
nights city council meeting.
The evening began with recognition of two heroic
children who saved the life of their father and ended
with the impassioned pleas of local Girl Scouts and
Boy Scouts trying to save La Casita, a structure that
faces for an uncertain future.
City staff, council members and first responders
gathered before a standing-room-only crowd as Mayor
Joe Lyons presented 6-year-old Moralia Herrejon-Rutte
and her 2-year-old brother Gael with a certificate for
their quick-thinking actions that saved the life of their
father this past summer.
On July 27, the two children were swimming with
their dad, Juan Herrejon, when he suddenly became
quiet and fell asleep after entering the family pool.
Moralia swam down to make sure he was not just hold-
ing his breath or playing before calling for her mother,
Cristina Herrejon-Rutte, who was inside the house.
Moments later, Gael came running into the house and
informed his mom, Daddy was floating at the bottom
of the pool!
Ms. Herrejon-Rutte ran out, dove in and pulled 36-
year-old Juan to the shallow end and onto the stairs.
Seeing he was unresponsive and not breathing, she
began chest compressions but was unable to lift him
completely out of the pool. Moralia ran into the house
to get the phone to call 911, while Gael remained calm
in a nearby chair.
The first responders got there within five minutes,
Ms. Herrejon-Rutte said. They tried to intubate him
but he had a locked jaw. Then they took him to
Pomona Valley Hospital.
Mr. Herrejons condition was life threatening for
several days. He remained unconscious with fluid in
his lungs and swelling in his brain. Thankfully, Mr.
Herrejon has since made a full recovery. Doctors attrib-
uted his survival to his good physical condition and the
quick response of the children and first responders.
Im very proud and very surprised by the chil-
drens actions, Mr. Herrejon told the COURIER.
They acted very maturely. I gave them life but they
gave it back to me.
Diagnosed with Long QT syndrome (LQTS), a heart
rhythm disorder that can potentially cause fast, chaotic
heartbeats, Mr. Herrejon has now been outfitted with a
pacemaker and the family continues to count its bless-
ings.
Moralia and Gael have both been involved with the
citys swim program and their parents credit the pool
staff for teaching their children pool safety.
We went as a family before the program ended to
thank the pool staff for safety training. Without it, my
husband may not be here today, Ms. Herrejon-Rutte
said. Were blessed the children acted quickly and
thoughtfully as trained.
Following the ceremony and the city managers re-
port, Mayor Lyons opened the meeting to public com-
ment on matters not on the agenda. In a room filled
with roughly 14 Girl Scout troops, two Boy Scout
troops and their leaders, Yvonne Murphy was first to
take the floor.
We are in here on behalf of past, present and future
Girl Scouts of Claremont, asking for your help in pre-
serving a true Claremont asset, and that is La Casita,
the Girl Scout leader told council members. Recently,
the Girl Scouts of Greater Los Angeles has placed La
Casita on a list of properties to be disposed of, sold off.
We need your help in keeping this precious and impor-
tant part of Claremont history, to secure a place in its
future. We are asking you to partner with us and con-
vince the Girl Scouts of Greater Los Angeles Council
to keep this property.
As the COURIER reported last week, the fate of La
Casita remains undecided as the Girl Scouts of Greater
Los Angeles considers retiring the property from its
repertoire pending a ratification vote next month. The
adobe structure, established by the first Girl Scout
leader in Claremont, has been an integral part of the
local scouting community for nearly 70 years, which
stands united in its mission to save La Casita.
If I can ask as a show of support, for those in the
audience that are here for the preservation of La Casita
to remain a Girl Scout property to please stand and join
me in saying the Girl Scout Promise, Ms. Murphy re-
quested at the council meeting.
The majority of the room stood and recited the
pledge in unison. On my honor, I will try to serve God
and my country, to help people at all times, and to live
by the Girl Scout Law.
When finished, the room filled with applause and the
scouts took their seats.
As you can see, we are very passionate about this,
said Ms. Murphy. There are other Girl Scouts and
Claremont residents who would like to share their rea-
sons why La Casita should remain a Girl Scout prop-
erty with access to all.
Over a dozen impassioned Girl Scouts, and a few
Boy Scouts, stepped forward to the podium to share
their La Casita experiences, while roughly 40 others
cheered them on. One sentiment rang true for all: La
Casita is a special place, and it should be preserved for
generations to come.
When I was in Cub Scouts, every year wed have
our family campout at La Casita and utilize the kitchen
and convert the parking lot to a campground, says
Jake, now a Boy Scout and high school senior. Its
where our troop decided to hold our ceremony for our
bridge into Boy Scouts. I know that I, and my fellow
Boy Scouts who were there to experience all of that,
will be very disappointed to have that resource sold or
renovated or torn down to be something else. I would
really like to see it preserved for Scouts.
Noting the Girl Scouts of Greater Los Angeles im-
pending ratification vote deadline of October 25, City
Manager Tony Ramos agreed to review the matter and
add it to the next council meeting agenda in October.
Regardless of the outcome, everyone walked away
feeling like something had been accomplished.
To see a packed room with allthose young people
engaged in the government process reminds me why I
got into public service, says Bevin Handel, Clare-
monts public information officer. From the great
story of our two younglifesavers surrounded by the
firefighters who helped them to the little ones asking
council to preserve their special placewhat agreat
example of why Claremont is a special community.

Local Girl Scouts attended Tuesday nights Claremont City Council meeting to voice their opposition to a plan
by the Girl Scouts of Greater Los Angeles to sell the La Casita facility.
A
Pomona judge sched-
uled a preliminary hear-
ing for the man accused
of raping a 12-year-old girl as
she slept in her Claremont
home this past March.
Joseph Chandler Davall is charged
with seven felony counts in Los Angeles
County, including two counts of aggra-
vated sexual assault of a child; one count
each of forcible rape; sexual penetration
by foreign object; and assault to commit
a felony during the commission of first-
degree burglaries.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge
Jack P. Hunt scheduled Mr. Davalls pre-
liminary hearing to start on October 20.
At the conclusion of the hearing, the
judge will determine whether there is
enough evidence for the defendant to
stand trial. Among the evidence for con-
sideration is a seven-disk, 150-page
DNA report that was recently completed
and given to the defendants newly-ap-
pointed public defender.
The 34-year-old date farmer was
taken into custody at his Yucca Valley
home on April 18 after a short pursuit
involving Claremont police and the San
Bernardino County Sheriff. Police previ-
ously verified that evidence relating to
the Claremont crime was found at Mr.
Davalls residence.
The Los Angeles District Attorneys
office confirmed that authorities linked
the date farmer to the Claremont attack
through the Combined DNA Index Sys-
tem. If convicted as charged, Mr. Davall
faces a maximum sentence of life in
prison.

A burglary occurred on the 700 block
of West Tenth Street. At around 12:25
p.m., a witness saw the suspects and their
vehicle, but did not call the police until
after the suspects left the area.
According to the witness, a female
knocked on the front door of the home in
an attempt to verify if the home was oc-
cupied, then broke a glass door at the
back of the home to gain entry.
The second burglary occurred on the
1200 block of Northwestern Avenue be-
tween 6 a.m. and 3 p.m. A witness later
reported seeing a tall, thin black female
near the side of the residence prior to the
burglary. In both burglaries, rear glass
doors and windows were smashed to
gain entry. Both homes are located just
east and west of Mountain Avenue be-
tween Harrison Avenue and Foothill
Boulevard.
As a reminder, always lock all doors
and windows and immediately report
any suspicious vehicles or persons to the
Claremont PD by calling 9-1-1 or (909)
399-5411.

A suspect attempting to break into the
dorms at Claremont McKenna College
couldnt outrun a Claremont police offi-
cer and his actions landed him in jail.
Around 1:32 a.m., officers responded
to CMC after a witness reported seeing
four suspects trying to break into rooms
at Beckett Hall. According to Lieutenant
Mike Ciszek, the officer located one of
the suspects, Angel Torres, running
through a backyard on the 100 block of
Brooks Avenue. When the officer and
Mr. Torres made eye contact, a chase en-
sued and the 19-year-old was detained
after a brief struggle. The Pomona resi-
dent was carrying a knife on his belt. Mr.
Torres was booked for resisting an offi-
cer, carrying a switchblade knife and an
outstanding warrant. He was later re-
leased on $10,000 bail with citations.

A Claremont woman fighting with her
man over an ex-girlfriend spent four
hours in jail after striking him with an
open hand and closed fist. The 42-year-
old woman and the victim were heard ar-
guing inside their apartment when
officers responded to the location. The
40-year-old victim complained of pain to
his right ear and left cheek, although,
there was no visible injury. The woman
was arrested for battery and later released
on a $20,000 bond. According to police,
the couple, who live together, have been
dating for four months.
Saturday, September 20
He rang the doorbell 11 times but
when nobody answered, one thief fig-
ured hed let himself in. Around 11:29
a.m., an unknown suspect began ringing
the doorbell at a home on the 100 block
of Buena Vista while the victim slept in
another room. Thinking it was neighbor-
hood kids, the resident didnt respond.
Soon after, the resident heard two loud
booms followed by a third and then his
bedroom door was suddenly kicked in.
An unknown suspect stood in the door-
way, spotted the resident and then fled
the scene. The suspect is described as a
male Hispanic, about 18 to 19 years old,
59 with a thin build and a shaved head.
He was seen getting into a lowered,
white Mazda with custom rims, tinted
windows and a loud exhaust. The driver
was unidentifiable. Neither the suspect
nor the vehicle has been located.

Road rage reared its ugly head off the
210 and Base Line, resulting in a fight on
the freeway shoulder and an off-duty of-
ficer drawing his weapon on the enraged
drivers. Around 6:43 p.m., two drivers
who had been brake-checking and cutting
each other off on the freeway had finally
had enough when 24-year-old Jancarlo
Gutierrez pulled to the shoulder to let the
other driver pass by. The other driver,
who is considered the victim in the inci-
dent, followed suit and approached Mr.
Gutierrez car. According to Lt. Ciszek,
the pair exchanged a few obscenities be-
fore the victim allegedly began punching
the suspect repeatedly in the face and
wouldnt let him out of his vehicle. Mr.
Gutierrez then grabbed a knife from the
car and slashed a four-inch laceration into
the victims left arm, causing him to step
back and enabling Mr. Gutierrez to leave
his vehicle. The men continued to fight
outside the car until an off-duty police of-
ficer stopped and ordered both to ground
by gunpoint. Mr. Gutierrez of San
Bernardino was arrested for assault. No
charges will be filed against the other
driver, it was determined he acting in self-
defense.
Sunday, September 21
Campus safety called Claremont po-
lice after underage drinkers were caught
fighting on the Claremont McKenna
College campus. Around 1:03 a.m., sus-
pect Arnoldo Gomez-Vallejo of Clare-
mont was spotted sitting in the middle of
the street with his head held down, shoe-
less. When asked by the officer for his
name, the 20-year-old yelled, Treat me
like an adult! He smelled of alcohol, his
speech was slurred and loud and he had
saliva dripping from his mouth. Mr.
Gomez-Vallejo was unable to answer
simple questions and was arrested for
public intoxication. He was later released
on $250 bail.
Monday, September 22
A Claremont woman set fire to her
home while her mother lay sleeping in a
nearby room. Officer were called the 500
block of Towne Avenue around 1:20 a.m.
after the 29-year-old covered herself
from head to toe with blue paint and
painted the words All Yours on a wall
in the family room of the home. She then
splattered paint all over the walls and
floors of the family room and kitchen be-
fore intentionally starting three separate
fires in the kitchen while her mother
slumbered. After igniting the fires, the
suspect lay down on the floor of the
kitchen. The suspects brother arrived
home shortly after and got both of the
women out of the house before extin-
guishing the fire with a hose. Over
$7,000 in damage occurred due to the
fire. The suspect was taken to Pomona
Valley Hospital for treatment and psy-
chiatric evaluation.

A verbal altercation between a trio of
female students at Claremont High
School got taken to the next level when
someone broke out the pepper spray and
a knuckle sandwich. Three suspects, two
16-year-old girls and a 14-year-old girl,
were fighting when one of the suspects
pepper sprayed another in the face and
then struck her with a closed fist. An-
other student jumped in before school
staff broke up the fight. All three ladies
were arrested.

CoolCalifornia deadline looms,

Bleachers will be alive with the sound of music at CHS, El Roble concert
COURIER photo/Steven Felschundneff
Members of the Claremont High School band play Jupiter from The Planets by Gustav Holst on Wednesday at CHS. The band is preparing for
their upcoming show, Under the Lights: CHS Second Annual Community Concert, on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. at the CHS stadium.
T
he instrumental music programs of
El Roble Intermediate and Clare-
mont High School will present
their second annual community concert on
Saturday, September 27 from 6:30 to 8
p.m. at the CHS stadium.
The al fresco show, Under the Lights. which is
free and open to the public, will feature appearances
by the CHS Jazz Ensemble, the El Roble String Or-
chestra, the El Roble Marching Panthers, the CHS Or-
chestra and the CHS Marching Wolfpack,
accompanied by the high schools color guard.
The program, coordinated by music director
Melanie Riley-Gonzales, features everything from
classical music, with the El Roble String Orchestra
performing Autumn from Vivaldis Four Seasons to
rock music, with the CHS Orchestra undertaking a
rendition of Imagine Dragons Radioactive. The
CHS Marching Wolfpack will hearken to the space
age with tunes like the themes from Star Trek Gen-
erations and the videogame Halo.
Ms. Riley-Gonzales has become an instrumental
part (pun intended) of the music programs at Clare-
monts secondary schools. Last year, she took on the
orchestra and marching bands at El Roble in addition
to those at the high school, and this year she has taken
the reins of the CHS Jazz Ensemble.
Its a lot, but I love it. Its a lot of fun and I enjoy
the kids, Ms. Riley-Gonzales said. I like to add new
things each year. It keeps me motivated. It keeps me
going.
Having a big performance near the start of the
school year is a great way to get the band kids going,
she noted.
For the high school band, we perform at the foot-
ball games but there are so many other things going
on, its kind of distracting. This is an opportunity for
them to shine, she said. The El Roble kids, espe-
cially the orchestra, spend most of their time practic-
ing. Its fun to perform in front of other people and
show what you have learned.
Ms. Riley-Gonzales hopes lots of people show up
at this weekends concert and that they come to see
the bands play again at their spring concert.
I love the idea that the community can come out
and see how the kids are at the beginning of the year
and where they are
at the end of the
year, she said.
Theres so much
improvement. Its
night and day.
Thanks to active
recruiting at the ele-
mentary schools, as
well as at El Roble,
the 7th through 12th
grade programs are
having their own
transformation. Ms.
Riley-Gonzales took
a 40-student cap off the music classes at El Roble this
year. As a result, the orchestra now has 45 eager par-
ticipants, while the band boasts 54 students.
Nearly all of the 8th graders Ms. Riley-Gonzales
taught last year have continued with music as they
embark on their high school careers. The CHS march-
ing band has 78 musicians, and the orchestra has 45.
The jazz band has 33 members, who on Saturday will
fill the CHS stadium with the sounds of classics like
Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy.
Ms. Riley-Gonzales knows what its like to be a
band student as well as an instructor.
In our school, the instrumental program didnt
start until 5th grade. I started in 5th grade and fell in
love with the flute, and Ive been doing it ever since.
This weekends show will also offer attendees the
opportunity to support music in the Claremont Uni-
fied School District, with a chance to participate in
the CHS music programs annual Take Note
Fundraiser and to buy tickets for the Claremont Edu-
cational Foundations yearly Prius raffle.

The Basics
L
ast week, my new friend David
offered a gruesome explanation
for the origin of basket case. I
looked at him skeptically as he outlined a
grim story of quadriplegics in the early
20th century forced to live in baskets.
The tale seemed oddly too precise to be
true, so I assumed that it was a case of
folk etymology.
The Oxford English Dictionary, however, corrobo-
rates his story, stating that the expression was first
recorded in 1919 as a reference to those who had suf-
fered catastrophic wounds in war and had to be car-
ried to the hospital in a basket. After WWI, the US
Surgeon General officially denied the existence of
basket cases, but in 1934, the Washington Post
wrote that basket cases were causing confusion in
the hospitals as the patients were losing identification
tags. This spurred a second denial from the Surgeon
General, who again vehemently denied the circulating
stories regarding such men.
The irony of the idiom lies in the fact that it was
likely made popular through denial of the condition
rather than the existence of it. In 1945, Time magazine
did its own investigation and was able to track down
only two men who had suffered this miserable fate.
Many believe that the phrase could not possibly
have been popularized solely from these two cases,
but rather from its persistent use in written denials.
This has happened with other phrases, such as pink
elephant. It was the use of the compound, not the ex-
istence of the creature, that made the expression no-
table.
In the late 1940s, basket case began to take on a
variety of metaphorical meanings. It came to refer to
a car in a state of disrepair because of missing parts;
an ineffective or powerless person or organization in
severe economic or financial crisis; and a person
emotionally unable to cope with stress and anxiety.
I confess to having used basket case to describe
myself (and maybe others) in stressful situations. Has
my flippant use of the phrase been an offense to
some? Perhaps. Some people are still put off by the
idioms association with quadriplegics and specifi-
cally, the archaic connotation that a person without
limbs is worthless.
In an online response to an article in The Guardian,
one commenter wrote, I think the paper should avoid
the use of basket case. It is a shocking, distressing,
and distracting image. The Guardian would not use
spastic or quadriplegic as derogatives. Why use bas-
ket case?
Although Im guilty of accepting basket case into
my lexicon without vetting the provenance, I also un-
derstand that words and phrases change meaning over
time and, in some cases, lose all traces of whence
they came.
Most of us do not conjure gory wartime images
when saying dodge a bullet, ride shotgun, cross
swords, fight an uphill battle, open old wounds or
bite the bullet. These expressions, which were born
of distress, have significantly lost their power to
shock.
My ignorance about basket case, however, begs
the question, how many other potentially offensive
phrases have I been using? As it turns out, there are
several. I often accuse my children of running amok.
Little did I know that this expression comes from the
Malay amuk meaning attack furiously on the streets
and brutally kill as many people as possible. Even on
the most chaotic mornings, my kids arent that bad!
Deadline, a word I use every day, comes from the
1800s. It originally referred to the line drawn around
a military prison, beyond which the prisoner would be
shot down. The practice of raking over the coals was
literally the torture for non-Christians offered by well-
meaning people of the cloth, and a diehard is one
who has died reluctantly from a hanging...with a
struggle. I confess to using all of these expressions
freely with little concern to their appalling pasts.
The famous wordsmith Ambrose Bierce once said
that to apologize is to lay the foundation for a future
offense so, with this in mind, I will refrain from
apology. Rather, I will make a case for basket case,
deadline, diehard and others. It is time to let by-
gones be bygones and accept that that some offenses
are clearly a thing of the past.

The case for basket case and other offenses
by Mellissa Martinez
Rodney Smiths tricky taxes
[Editors note: The following letter was ad-
dressed to Rodney Smith, via the Claremont
COURIER, in response to his full-page ad-
vertisement published September 19. KD]
Dear Editor:
Dr. Smith, in your full-page adver-
tisement published in the COURIER on
September 19, you note that your state-
ment is sponsored by the Golden State
Water Company and supported by
Claremont Taxpayers and Homeown-
ers.
In that statement, you claim credit as
a water expert because you taught eco-
nomics at one of our highly-respected
Claremont Colleges. I also noticed that
in your postscript you refer to a website
that urges us all to Stop the Water
Tax.
We all are fully aware that we pay
many kinds of taxes: property taxes,
business taxes, sales taxes, gas taxes,
etc. But repayment of revenue bonds,
as specified in Measure W, are not re-
paid by taxes, but by a capital charge
on the revenue bonds.
Why do you and your cohorts keep
calling this a tax? Because it is a scary
word used to mislead the anxious?
All of us know that we have to pay
for the water company. It is really fairly
simple. If you buy a house, you expect
to pay a mortgage, and we expect to
pay a capital charge levied on the basis
of water use. That seems fair to all, and
it can be paid primarily from the profits
not going to a big national corporation.
Finally, I am sure you are aware that
all purchases of property are made on
the basis of an appraisal by an accred-
ited appraiser. The city of Claremont
has such an appraisal, for $55 million,
based on the stated basis of anticipated
income.
Golden State has no appraisal as of
yet and no basis chosen for one. Why
would you, an economist, not encour-
age them to secure an approved ap-
praiser and give you some accurate
figure with which to debate? Your esti-
mate of massive costs, allocated out to
$1000 per year, per meter connection,
have absolutely no credibility because
it is largely based on a Golden State
fantasy.
Citizens of Claremont are a thoughtful
and canny crowd. We understand, as do
the citizens in most of the cities nearby,
that local control and local decision-
making will serve our community far
better in the long run than a distant cor-
poration eager to reward highly compen-
sated executives and stockholders.
We plan to vote yes on Measure W
because it returns control to those who
use the water and moves it out of the
control of Golden State Water Com-
pany.

Measure W guarantees
higher water rates
Dear Editor:
Why would any thinking person be-
lieve that water rates will go down
when you load it with $135 million in
debt, a new cast of city administrators
and the highest prevailing wage for all
maintenance, repair and replacement as
required under Davis-Bacon?
1. Ask the city how it intends to
repay $135 million with interest:
Answer: This cost will simply be
passed on to each resident based upon
some undisclosed formula that the city
will create.
2. Ask the city how many new city
administrators will be hired to manage
the newly-acquired water system and
what their salaries will be:
Answer: Claremont will necessarily
hire a new cast of costly city employees
with lavish benefits to manage the
water system. The city managers
salary will certainly be increased due to
increased burden of managing the
water system. Existing and future city
employees are the primary beneficiaries
of Measure W.
3. Ask the city how they intend to pay
for maintenance, repair and replacement
of the 100-year-old water system with-
out passing costs along to us:
Answer: You will pay for all mainte-
nance at the highest prevailing wage.
Keep in mind that Golden State does
not need to pay prevailing wage under
Davis-Bacon to maintain the water sys-
tem. The city is required to pay the
highest prevailing wage for all mainte-
nance work resulting in higher mainte-
nance costs.
4. Ask the city what will be required
to increase rates after they acquire the
water system:
Answer: Golden State must petition
to the Public Utilities Commission for
permission to raise rates. Once the city
acquires the water system, the city
council will be able to raise rates when-
ever it wants without legitimate public
debate.
The city, consultants and attorneys
are the only possible beneficiaries of
Measure W. The best way to guarantee
higher water rates is to vote for Meas-
ure W. Objectively, Measure W is about
grabbing power, not lowering water
rates.
Exercising even a minimal amount of
analysis and common sense should re-
sult in defeat of Measure W.

Transparency needed from
Smith, CAWA and Golden State
Dear Editor:
Sigh. Not only election mailers from
CAWA, but now a past professor from
Claremont McKenna College using a
quasi-CMC letterhead as an obvious at-
tempt to gain clout on Measure W.
While Rodney Smith may be knowl-
edgeable on water issues, his anti-Mea-
sure W motives are apparent when one
looks at his Internet trail.
His own bio talks about his web pub-
lication that covers developments in
the emerging private corporate partici-
pation in western water matters (my
emphasis). So, his business interest is to
make money off water for himself and
those who are in the water business at
our expense.
Sorry, but any objective professorial-
academic perspective he could have
provided on this issue is nullified by his
work in the private sector to influence
public policy in the name of profits to
those who wish to own our water.
Also, Donna Lowe of CAWA com-
plaining in last weeks COURIER
about the citys legal costs is absurd
and ironic, considering she and her
group are themselves actively con-
tributing to the citys legal costs.
Lets have the same transparency she
demands from the city applied to
CAWA, herself and its backers for its
own election mailers and campaigning.
Lets see who is paying for what ex-
actly.
As for the true costs of municipal
water ownership: If Measure W costs
me $348 a year but does away with
Golden States unfair tiered rate struc-
ture, my water bill may actually go
down.
My penalty tiers were set after I had
greatly reduced my irrigation demands.
In addition, I have three more people
living in my home than I had when the
tiers were originally set. But neither
Golden State nor the CPUC have cared
to remedy this and amend my tier struc-
ture. They say there is nothing they can
do. I disagree.
Locally-owned water is the way to
go: of all the people I know in our sur-
rounding communities that have lo-
cally-owned water, not one of them is
unhappy with its service or rates.
In contrast, how many people are un-
happy with our privately-owned water
company that asks for double-digit rate
increases year after year, pays a huge
guaranteed rate of return to its share-
holders, and pays its CEOs and CFOs
grossly inflated salaries that come di-
rectly from our faucets?
Mr. Smith, Ms. Lowe and CAWA
continue to call the Measure W munici-
pal bond a tax. Clearly, they consider
tax a bad word and are hoping its use
will scare voters into rejecting the
bond.
As a lifelong Claremont resident, I
prefer instead to call Measure W an in-
vestment in our future.

Too many what ifs
Dear Editor:
There are too many what ifs in re-
gard to the purchase of Golden State
Water Company by the city.
Looking back, I recall how we prop-
erty owners on Indian Hill were forced
to donate parts of our front yards so a su-
perhighway could be constructed from
Base Line Road to Armstrong Drive. It
seemed like a good idea at the time.
The roundabout in the Village seemd
like a good idea at the time.
The Wilderness Park and the ensuing
parking debacle seemed like a good
idea at the time.
I am not convinced that the purchase
of a utility company is in our best inter-
est.

Unwanted gifts
[Editors note: The following letter was ad-
dressed to the dog owners who utilize the
Wilderness Park and trails, often leaving be-
hind unsightly doggie bags. KD]
Dear Dog Owners:
Get a grip! What dont you under-
stand? You are given a free small black
bag at the trailhead of Johnsons Pas-
ture at the top of Mountain Avenue. It is
supposed to be returned to that area
after your stroll.
Today, I counted eight filled bags
along the road. Johnsons Pasture is a
pristine area for all of us to enjoy and
you ruined my hike.
My suggestion to you is to hire
someone to walk your dog who may be
more considerate than you are. They
will hopefully return the filled bags.
I would love for you to respond and
let me know why you leave the filled
bags begind. Shame on you!

READERS COMMENTS
F
or those of us who read the pages
of the COURIER each week, we
know that water has been a hot
topic in Claremont for many years. Ive
stayed on the sidelines and, until now,
have only shared my thoughts with fam-
ily and close friends.
Im writing this piece because Measure W, the
$135 million bond measure on the November ballot,
will cost Claremont families much more than were
already paying today. Ask yourself, why would you
place $135 million in debt on the community if it
would result in higher water bills for all residents for
decades?
Ive conducted my own research, including a thor-
ough review of the citys own impartial analysis, and
thats why Im going to vote no.
First, residents should know that Measure W, by
the citys own account, will not result in lower water
bills. If you want to save money, you should most cer-
tainly vote no. Supporters initially said that taking
over the water company would reduce water rates.
Yet city leaders have candidly said that Measure W
will not save any money for at least 17 years. The im-
partial analysis of Measure W says that water rates
will immediately go up for all residents, regardless of
how much water they use.
Former Claremont McKenna College professor
Rodney Smith, PhD, a local business owner and na-
tionally-recognized expert on water economics, has
done a comprehensive analysis of Measure W. He
concluded Measure W will cost the average home-
owner $1,217 per year. That is the equivalent of a
$101.42 charge on every residents monthly water bill
on top of what you are paying right now. If your bill
is currently $100 per month, under Measure W it will
be $201.42 per month. For my family, thats an ex-
pense we simply cannot afford.
Additionally, not one penny in Measure Ws $135
million proposal can be used to maintain, repair or
upgrade the water system. When we own the water
system, well be burdened with paying for every fix,
big and small. Southern Californias water system is
aging (Look what happened at UCLA) and the cost to
replace old pipes and mains cannot be understated.
Those costs will only be paid for in future water rate
increases beyond Measure Ws water tax.
Further, in the history of California, there has
never been a successful eminent domain takeover of a
private water company. This was illustrated a few
years ago in Santa Cruz County in a community
called Felton. The same kinds of interests, who are
today promoting Measure W, convinced Felton resi-
dents to enact a 30-year property tax to take over the
local water system. The promises werent kept.
The purchase price ended up being 250 percent
more than was promised. Residents are now paying
an annual $500 property tax for 30 years and monthly
bills have increased by 71 percent over the last eight
years. Thousands of residents objected to the most re-
cent double-digit increases, but their concerns were
ignored.
When residents consider Measure W, the bottom
line is that it will cost us a lot more money for a long
period of time. Well be paying for water service, the
level of which has not been detailed by takeover sup-
porters. Well be paying millions to lawyers and con-
sultants who will be part of a costly and divisive
eminent domain court fight. And if thats successful,
well be repaying $135 million in principal plus inter-
est payments to bondholders. Measure W is a budget-
buster for hardworking Claremont residents.
As a community, I hope that voters review all the
materials and look beyond the rhetoric. Theyll find
that Measure W is a fatally-flawed plan that will obli-
gate every household to $36,510 in debt repayments
over the next 30 years. Again, that is an extra $101.42
every month in addition to your existing water bill.
Ask yourselves, does Measure W offer the out-
come that Claremont desires? Please consider the
facts and vote no on the $135 million tax. Learn more

Claremont
On the trail of the perfect shopping experience
by Jan Wheatcroft
I
love to shop almost as much as I
love to eat. Both experiences provide
adventure, anticipation and excite-
ment and challenge me to discover
something that will surprise and delight.
Each time I travel, I am always alert that
something new will be found or tasted as
well as a renewed acquaintance made
with some place I have already been that
has been pleasurable.
In London, for instance, I revisit one of my favorite
businesses, Muji, a Japanese shop featuring clever,
simple, basic items, especially inexpensive watches. I
love to wander around and browse often finding some-
thing new and clever. Then there are the bookstores,
such as Daunts and The Travel Bookstore where I can
lose myself for hours among the maps and books and
travel toys. The browsing is as much a part of the fun
as the actual finding of a treasure or a good book or a
clever key chain.
Then there are the antique marts and flea markets,
which make me quiver with excitement. Who knows
what jewels are waiting for me to dig out, just perfect
for my artwork at home? I have my favorite places in
London and know the dates when each flea market is
open and, by now, even recognize the sellers and their
specialities. And that is just in London. I havent even
begun with the fabric or ethnic clothing stores.
This summer, I went with my Swedish friend Su-
sanna to Berlin for four days. There was a heat wave
and Berlin was hot. We had great fun finding restau-
rants for dinner, tending toward Italian food and light
sparkling white wine while sitting outside sharing
plates heaped with seafood, pasta or risotto and lavish
salads. It was tasty and relaxing and a lovely way to
spend a warm evening. Its always delightful to figure
out the public transportation system and to walk about.
The taxis were good, too, as they gave us an overview
of a very large city. We even tried a boat ride through
the center of the city.
One day, I went on my own to visit some antique
stores, searching for antique jewelry I could take apart
and re-use in my own jewelry-making. I found a small
antique mall built into the arches of an old railway
station and full of rather fancy small shops. Most of the
things were way out of my league, but in one store I
found three enameled pendants that stood out as some-
thing special. I spent quite a bit of time bargaining with
the owner until I succumbed to his price and they were
mine. I knew that they were unique and beautiful, and
worth every bit I had to pay. When I used them in my
jewelry artwork, they were the first pieces to sell. I
knew I had found something rather extraordinary and
that is the joy of the hunt, made even more engaging in
a place that I am visiting for the first time.
However, sometimes visiting a store can be an expe-
rience in itself without having to buy anything. We had
been told that when in Berlin we must go to the store
KaDeWe. I had no idea what this store was but, of
course, we had to see and discover for ourselves. We
were told sixth floor and nothing more. We alighted
from the bus in front of a huge edificewide, tall and
filled with people crowding in and out of the front
doors. Inside, people sat and milled about, going from
one high-end shop with big name brands to another.
Not a single elite brand was left out, and this was only
the ground floor.
There were banks of elevators as well as a big glass
elevator in the center, which seemed like the one to
take for the view. Since we werent interested in high-
end clothing, we bypassed all the floors and rode up the
the sixth floor, obedient to those who had instructed us.
The sixth floor was food. Not just food, but food. Here
was the largest collection of every food item imagina-
ble. It was actually bigger and more complete than any-
thing I have ever seen, even in the basement of a
Japanese department store in Tokyo.
The first display in front of us was chocolates:
chocolates of every sort and size and from every coun-
try, chocolates from bitter to sweetbrands that I had
never seen or heard of. We hopped about, pointing out
the varieties of known and unknown chocolates that
covered almost half a supermarket. And that was only
chocolates. Other areas had candies, teas and coffees.
And then we discovered the bakery with the widest se-
lection of breads, cakes and sweet baked goods from
every part of Europe. The butcher section with fresh
and sealed meats almost covered an entire block with
every wurst and salami one could imagine as well as
cold cuts and pig heads and fresh meat. This section led
into the part of the market with fish and every other
critter of the sea. There were small bar areas where one
could perch and order wine or beer, coffee or tea and a
snack of the local speciality. It took us hours to wander
around discovering the imported goods, as well as
jams, mustards, oils and spices. The list goes on.
All of this was making us hungry, so we rode up in
our glass carriage to the seventh floor where we were
greeted by vast food tables filled with row after row of
cold dishes and cases with prepared hot dishes. I started
with the cold dishes first and then returned for the hot
dishes. It was difficult to make the choices. You loaded
your plate yourself and payment was by weight. Of
course, mine was more expensive than Susannas. We
were never able to go back for any hot dishes or for the
wide selection of dessert choices on that first day. So
for lunch on the day that we were to leave Berlin, we
returned to try some of the other choices. It was one
way to combine both the shopping and food experi-
ences. This is not a new store in a city that is constantly
building new stores, each one seemingly bigger than
the last one. No, this enormous store is over 100 years
old.
I just love to go shopping. I always have great ex-
pectations of finding something special or discovering
an unexpected treasure. Even if I buy nothing, just the
fun of being someplace new is a worthwhile experi-
ence. And to add to it, the chance to sit at a sidewalk
cafe for a coffee or a glass of wine and enjoy the world
around me.....well, that is the extra cream in my coffee.

Mary E. Betty Graber, a native of
San Dimas and longtime resident of On-
tario, died peacefully on Saturday, Sep-
tember 13, 2014 with her son Clifford
by her side. She had just celebrated her
98th birthday on September 4.
Betty grew up among the orange
groves of San Dimas, graduated with
the class of 1934 from Bonita High
School and married her sweetheart,
Robert Bob D. Graber, in 1936. They
lived in Ontario, where they raised their
two children, Clifford and Carolyn.
Alongside Bob, who in 1962 became
the sole proprietor of the Graber Olive
House, Betty dedicated herself to On-
tarios oldest business. It is now under
the management of her son, Clifford
Graber II. She established a charming
gift shop, took a special interest in the
shipping aspect of the company and
made a point of connecting with cus-
tomers.
Weve been in business here so
long, a lot of these people have become
old friends. Thats a good feeling, she
said in a 1980 San Bernardino Sun arti-
cle. It makes all our work seem worth-
while.
She echoed that sentiment in a 2002
edition of La Verne Magazine.
Were very complimented that peo-
ple drive out of their way to come out
here and see us, she said. We really
appreciate our customers; in fact, we
tell them they sort of own the place.
Mrs. Graber also made sure that em-
ployees felt at home.
The world lost an amazing woman!
Ill miss hearing the words, How are
you doing, dear? the most, Terre Au-
dibert, a seasonal employee at the
Graber Olive House, posted in an on-
line tribute.
A philanthropist at heart, Mrs.
Graber believed in doing ones best and
always looked for the finest in each in-
dividual. She belonged to many local
clubs and organizations including Ex-
ecutive Women International, Shake-
speare Club, Soroptimist Club,
Jamboleers, Chaffey Community Art
Association, Republican Women and
the San Antonio Hospital Foundation.
Among her many personal interests,
Betty developed a love of the arts at an
early age and became a patron of the
arts, supporting local artists and hosting
many art shows over the years.
As members of the Balboa Yacht
Club, she and Bob enjoyed power-boat-
ing and sailing, both locally and in the
San Juan Islands in Washington where
they spent their summers. Cliff recalls
his moms attempt once to cook pan-
cakes as the boat was rocking back and
forth. The kids renamed them pan-
wads, which is what the grandchildren
still often affectionately refer to them as.
Grandson Robert McBride recalls
one particular fishing trip. Mrs. Graber
hooked something and reeled it in to
discover she had caught a copper tea
kettle covered in barnacles. It was
agreed that only Grandma Betty, with
her keen eye for artistic things, could
catch such a treasure.
In recent years, Betty and Bob
moved to the Mt. San Antonio Gardens
retirement community in Claremont.
Her legacy to her children and many
grandchildren was that one should not
just do their best but be understanding
of others and help them to become their
very best as well. One must take the
time to do everything right
Betty was preceded in death by her
husband of 71 years, Bob Graber. She
is survived by her son Cliff (Maura)
and daughter Carolyn; by eight grand-
children, Bill, Robert, Catherine (John),
Peggy (Ron), Clifford (Katie), Crystal,
Kat (Manny) and Robert; by 19 great-
grandchildren and by two great great-
grandchildren.

OBITUARIES
Longtime Claremont resident and
Pomona Valley Hospital and Medical
Center physician Dr. Richard D. Davis
died early in the morning on Saturday,
September 13, 2014 at the age of 83.
Born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1931
and raised in the Pittsburgh area, Dr.
Davis graduated medical school from
the University of Pittsburgh in 1954 and
completed his one-year internship at St.
Luke Hospital in Ohio. Deferred from
the Korean War because he was in train-
ing, he spent the next two years in the
Navy, based out of Camp Pendleton,
California as a lieutenant assigned to the
Marine Corps Base.
He completed his Family Medicine
residency training at the University of
Colorado in Denver in 1959, moving to
Claremont and opening his medical
practice with Dr. Walter McCleery in
1960. He practiced family medicine in
the Pomona Valley area for the next 44
years, retiring in 2004. He was prede-
ceased by his wife, Martha Marty S.
Davis, in 1997.
Dr. Davis loved the practice of medi-
cine, and established strong bonds with
his patients. He also was very active
with the hospital, and served on numer-
ous medical staff committees his entire
career as well as serving as chief of staff
at Pomona Valley Hospital and Medical
Center.
He and his wife Marty, a registered
nurse, helped start Pomona Valley
Health Plan and Valley Independent
Physicians, which later became Inter-
Valley Health Plan and ProMed. More
recently, he helped create the Family
Practice Residency Program with part-
ners Duane Styles, MD and Greg
Dahlquist, MD.
Physically active most of his life, Doc
Davis enjoyed playing tennis and adult
league soccer, hiking with his dogs and
bicycle riding. He also enjoyed travel-
ing, making numerous trips to distant
destinations around the world with fam-
ily and close friends. Soccer was his pas-
sion. With family and close friends, he
attended games and held football
watching parties for various incarna-
tions of US professional soccer and 50-
plus years of World Cup matches.
He was well known for his dry wit,
self-deprecating manner, intelligence
and matter-of-fact approach to life. To
close family and friends, he was gener-
ous, kind and held a steadfast love for
all. Even in illness, all these traits carried
through to the end. Happiest spending
time with his family and close friends,
he particularly enjoyed ski trips with his
children and grandchildren during the
winter and beach trips with family and
friends during the summer.
Pops or Doc, as he was affection-
ately called by family and friends, is sur-
vived by his mother Esther Davis (103
years old), by his three children, Beverly
(Bev), Richard Jr. (Rick) and Lenning III
(Lenny), and by his daughters-in law,
Tina and Kelley. He also leaves nine
grandchildren, Leigh Ann, Lauren,
Ryan, Nick, Dani, Randi, Kevin, Han-
nah and Lenny, as well as great-grand-
children Kenzie and Carson.

Delores Quinn died on September 6, 2014 in Clare-
mont, just two months shy of her 92nd birthday. A lov-
ing wife, mother of four children, grandmother of 10
and great-grandmother of 13, she lived a life filled with
family, friends and her strong faith.
She was born to John and Caroline Proehl on No-
vember 30, 1922 in Fernando, Minnesota. The middle
of three children, young Delores spent her early years
helping on the family farm. After graduating high
school, she moved to Buffalo Lake where she cared for
her great aunt and began her first job at the Buffalo
Lake Bank.
While working for the bank, she began a pen pal cor-
respondence with a friends cousin, a soldier fighting in
the war. After three years communicating only through
letters, Delores and L. Bernard Quinn met face-to-face
for the first time in late September, got engaged in Oc-
tober and married in November in Minnesota. They en-
joyed 62 years together as husband and wife.
The newlywed couple left the Midwest for Califor-
nia and lived in South Gate, Bernards hometown.
They later moved to Bellflower, where they raised their
four children and became active members of their
church and local community. Mrs. Quinn was a dedi-
cated Christian all her life, teaching Sunday school,
leading Bible studies and presiding as president of her
local Christian Womens Club. She was affectionately
known by family and friends as a Prayer Warrior, a
role she was dedicated to and of which she was ex-
tremely proud.
In 1978, the Quinns retired in Squaw Valley, Califor-
nia, where they built their own house and resided for
20 years. Visits to their Squaw Valley home are a cher-
ished memory for all those lucky enough to have vaca-
tioned there. Friends and family considered their home
like a bed and breakfast and fondly remember De-
lores freshly baked bread, sweet smile and warm hos-
pitality.
In 2000, they moved to Leisure World in Seal Beach
to live closer to family, which now included a growing
list of great-grandchildren. Bernard died in 2007 and in
2011, Mrs. Quinn moved to Claremont where she lived
close to her daughter Carolyn and many grandchildren
and great-grandchildren. At the time of her death, De-
lores was a resident of Claremont Manor and a mem-
ber of Baseline Community Church.
She is survived by her sister Lorraine Grabow, her
two sons Barry Quinn and Tom Quinn (Phyllis) and her
daughters Carolyn Zitar (Fred) and Joy Shopfner
(Dave). She also leaves her 10 grandchildren, 13 great-
grandchildren and numerous extended family members
and friends.

OUR TOWN
Thomas and Juanita Thielo
On September 25, 2014, Thomas and Juanita
Thielo reached a milestone and celebrated their 50th
wedding anniversary.
Thomas was born and raised in Brooklyn, New
York, and Juanita is from Delta, Colorado. As adven-
turesome young adults, they both moved to California
to start new lives and met at the apartment complex
where they were both living in Azusa.
Tom, when asked what he remembered most about
his first meeting with Juanita, said, She had a great
body. She just had a way about her, and I knew right
away that she was the one.
Tom also remembered waiting nine months before
telling Juanita that he loved her. Juanita fondly re-
members her first meeting with her future husband.
He was tall, handsome and I remember seeing him
studying in the common areas, she said. He had my
attention from the start.
The two spent nine months dating until Tom was
called off to serve in the US Navy Air for six months.
During Toms service, the couple kept in touch
through letters.
After his return, Tom proposed on August 16, 1964
and they were married at the Little Chapel of Flowers
in West Covina on September 25, 1964. Juanita re-
called rose petals falling from the ceiling all around
them as they kissed at the end of the service.
The couple have lived and raised their family in
Claremont since 1973. Tom and Juanita have two
daughters, Terry and Christine, and a son, Tim. Tom
worked for General Dynamic/Hughes Raytheon and
Juanita worked at the Claremont Unified School Dis-
trict.
When reflecting on his 50-year marriage, Tom
stated, Marriage is a grind. You have to take it one
day at a time. Its not a sprint but a marathon. You
have to put up with a lot but there are so many bene-
fits, which include sharing the love you have for one
another and watching that love change and grow
throughout the years.
Juanita agrees.
Its nice to have someone to share good and bad
times with and to tell you that everything will be
okay. Before I was married, I remember feeling afraid
but after, I always felt strong because as a couple you
feel like you can get through everything. We did
everything we wanted to, and we have gone every-
where we wanted to go. We enjoy a lot of the same
things and that has been a strength in our marriage.
The Thielo family marked the happy occasion with
a family dinner celebration.

A
c c l a i me d
Nigerian au-
thor Chima-
manda Ngozi Adichie,
whose novel Ameri-
canah won the Na-
tional Book Critics
Circle Award and was
named to the New York
Times 10 Best Books
of 2013 list, will be
speaking at Pomona
College on Wednesday, October 1 at
7 p.m. in Bridges Auditorium. This
talk is free and open to the public.
Both social critique and tender
storytelling, Americanah, selected
as Pomonas first-year class book,
is a novel about race, immigration,
love and class, traversing between
Nigeria, the US and Britain.
Ifemelu and Obinze are young and
in love when they depart military-
ruled Nigeria for the West. In
America, Ifemelu is forced to grap-
ple with what it means to be black
for the first time. Obinze hopes to
join her in the US, but post-9/11
America is closed to him, and he is
mired in a dangerous, undocu-
mented life in London. Fifteen
years later, they reunite in a newly
democratic Nigeria and reignite
their passion for each other and
their homeland.
Americanah is witheringly trench-
ant and hugely empathetic, both
worldly and geographically precise, a
novel that holds the dis-
comfiting realities of
our times fearlessly be-
fore us. It never feels
false, writes the New
York Times.
Americanah was
named a Great Reads
book by NPR and won
the Chicago Tribunes
2013 Heartland Prize
for Fiction, among
other honors. It will be
made into a film starring Lupita Ny-
ongo and produced by Brad Pitt.
Adichies work has been trans-
lated into 30 languages and has been
published in The New Yorker,
Granta, The O. Henry Prize Stories,
the Financial Times and Zoetrope,
among other publications. Her pre-
vious novels are the award-winning
Purple Hibiscus and Half of a Yel-
low Sun, and the story collection
The Thing Around Your Neck.
Adichie also is a recipient of a
MacArthur Foundation Fellowship.
She recently appeared on the
cover of Ms. magazine, and Bey-
onc sampled her TED talk, We
Should All Be Feminists, in the
song Flawless.
Each summer, incoming Pomona
students read a first-year class book
before arriving on campus, fol-
lowed by discussions and, in many
cases, a talk from the author.
Bridges Auditorium is located at
450 N. College Way, Claremont.

Claremont fullback Jeremiah Maldonado looks for a hole in the Colts defense during the first quarter of the Wolfpacks rout of visiting Covina Colts on Friday in Clare-
mont. Maldonado had only the one carry during the game but it was good for 41 yards and set up the Packs first touchdown.
T
he Wolfpack beat the Covina
High School Colts, in their third
non-league game, 52-19, at
home on Friday, September 19.
CHS students dressed in white for the
white out theme and gathered in the park-
ing lot for a tailgate before the game.
Some people were eating, others were listening to
music but everyone was just
really excited for the white
out game, senior Emily Spi-
vack said.
With wins against Salesian
and Mountain View, the
Wolfpack worked hard at
their practices to prepare for
the game against Covina.
With the heat, it was diffi-
cult to practice and the sched-
ule was mixed up, senior quarterback Ryan OConnor
said. But we got a good practice in on Wednesday night
and prepared as best as we could.
The Colts kicked off the ball and the Wolfpack imme-
diately showed their fighting spirit, taking the Colts to
their 20-yard line within the first five minutes of the first
quarter. The Wolfpack took the lead with a four-yard rush-
ing touchdown by sophomore running back Duy Tran-
Sampson. CHS was up 7-0 by the end of the first quarter.
Within the first five minutes of the second quarter,
Tran-Sampson scored again by running a seven yard
rushing touchdown to give the Wolfpack a 14-0 lead. The
Colts immediately responded with a long pass that gave
them a 50-yard gain, allowing them to score a touchdown.
Senior tight end Parker Bowman blocked the Colts ad-
ditional point and the Colts were down 14-6.
CHS played with more zeal following the Colts touch-
down and slowly made their way back to the two-yard
line by attacking holes in the Colts defense. Tran-Samp-
son scored another touchdown, putting the Pack ahead,
21-6. The Colts continued to make short passes, only to
be stopped by CHS defenders, forcing them to punt for a
second time. The Pack was back on offense.
With five seconds left in the first half, and CHS on the
35 yard line, quarterback OConnor threw a perfect spi-
ral into the air, and senior wide receiver Jordan Goodrich
sprinted down the right side of the field with a Covina de-
fender chasing him. Once in the end zone, the ball landed
perfectly in Goodrichs hands, and thundering cheers
erupted from the Claremont Crazies. The Wolfpack was
up 28-6 at the end of the first half.
All of the captains told everybody to settle down be-
cause the game wasnt ours yet, Bowman said.
With more intensity than the first half, the Pack had full
control the third quarter. At the 25-yard line, OConnor
threw a 75-yard pass to Goodrich making the game 35-6,
Claremont. CHS defense stopped the Colts, and kicker
Jacob Olesniewicz kicked a field goal at the 35-yard line,
putting CHS far ahead at 38-6.
Unable to get the first down, the Colts attempted to
punt, only to be blocked by junior fullback Markelle
Davis. Senior linebacker James Stephens, also known as
the heavy hitter, picked up the ball and ran it to the end
zone for a defensive touchdown.
A few plays later, freshman linebacker Solomon Tuli-
aupupu scored a defensive touchdown to give Claremont
a 52-6 lead. Covina scored at the end of the third and
fourth quarters, making the final score 52-19, Claremont.
CHS Head Coach Mike Collins said, Our team played
with great intensity all four quarters and our offensive line
opened huge holes all night for our running backs.
CHS will play away tonight, Friday, September 26
against Bell Gardens. They are a very tough, hard-hitting
team and we are expecting a war! Coach Collins said.

School. This is his first year on the Wolfpacket staff. He is an

Woodbridge Invitational on Saturday and in their first
Palomares league meet on Tuesday.

each race. Sophomore Jonah Evans was the overall
winner of the boys sophomore race with a time of
15:48 and teammate Owen Bishop placed second a
fraction of a second behind (also scored as 15:48).
Varsity boys placed second in the prestigious
sweepstakes division, finishing behind division 1
powerhouse Great Oak. Led by seniors Adam John-
son at 14:41, Mike Lowrie at 14:43, Jonah Ross at
14:47 and Dylan Powers at 15:10, junior Tom Engle-
bert rounded out our top five at 15:36.As a result, the
team is now ranked number one in CIF Southern Sec-
tion Division 2. Varsity girls placed eleventh in the
sweepstakes race.
The league meet was a great day for Claremont
with all five teams, freshman boys, junior varsity
boys, junior varsity girls, varsity girls and varsity
boys claiming first-place finishes.
In doing so, they defeated Ayala, Bonita, Glendora,
South Hills and Diamond Bar, thus beginning league
competition with a perfect 25-0 record, according to
Coach Rob Lander.

Ayala. Next varsity match up will be an away game
against Glendora at 3:15 p.m. on September 30.

is 11 a.m. Saturday against San Marcos High School

day, 249-264, and are now 3-3 in the Palomares
League. Nicole Curti shot a 44 and Allison Gallegos
shot a 45 to lead the team. The score of 249 is the
lowest all season, reflecting a great effort from all
players.

four sophomores in the starting lineup. They are
peaking at the right time because we are halfway
through league play, said Coach Octavio Hernandez.

BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on
this property lien, you should understand that
there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee
auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the
property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee
auction does not automatically entitle you to free
and clear ownership of the property. You should
also be aware that the lien being auctioned off
may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bid-
der at the auction, you are or may be responsible
for paying off all liens senior to the lien being
auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to
the property. You are encouraged to investigate
the existence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by contact-
ing the county recorders office or a title insur-
ance company, either of which may charge you a
fee for this information. If you consult either of
these resources, you should be aware that the
same lender may hold more than one mortgage
or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO
PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on
this notice of sale may be postponed one or more
times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a
court, pursuant to section 2924g of the California
Civil Code. The law requires that information
about trustee sale postponements be made
available to you and to the public, as a courtesy
to those not present at the sale. If you wish to
learn whether your sale date has been post-
poned, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time
and date for the sale of this property, you may
call (619)590-1221 or visit the Internet Web
Site WWW.DLPPLLC.COM using the file

formation about postponements that are very
short in duration or that occur close in time to
the scheduled sale may not immediately be re-
flected in the telephone information or on the

AND ADOPTED ATREGULAR CITYCOUN-
CILMEETING OFSEPTEMBER 23, 2014
(Full text of this ordinance is on file in the office
of the City Clerk)
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL
OF THE CITY OF CLAREMONT, CALI-
FORNIA, AMENDING CHAPTER 16.148 OF
THE CLAREMONT MUNICIPAL CODE
REGARDING PUBLIC ART. APPLICANT -
CITY OF CLAREMONT
As part of the Public Art Master Plan Process,
the Citys Public Art Ordinance, Chapter 16.148
of the Claremont Municipal Code is proposed
to be updated to provide clearer direction on the
administration of the Public Art Program. Some
of the changes to the ordinance include chang-
ing the title from Community Art Program to
Public Art Program, as well as the addition of
definitions for key terms that are used through-
out the document. The title Public Art Pro-
gram was selected because the ordinance is
specific to public art. Community art pro-
grams typically refer to a comprehensive arts
and culture program that embraces and supports
both public and private efforts.
THE FOLLOWING IS A SUMMARY OF
THE ABOVE TITLED ORDINANCE:
Establishes a Public Art Committee, consist-
ing of 7 members appointed by the City Coun-
cil to provide expert advice regarding the Public
Art Program policies and procedures, artist se-
lection, review panels, artwork review,
processes for development projects, and main-
tenance and conservation of artwork.
Establishes the requirement that ten percent of
the value of all new public art projects with a
required artwork valuation of $20,000 or greater
be deposited into a Public Art Fund for future
maintenance and implementation of the Public
Art Program.
Establishes policies for the gifts and loans of
artwork, as well as the deaccession of artwork.
Provides minor adjustments to the public art
requirements for the process for reviewing pub-
lic art for new development projects.
Revises the Architectural Commissions role
in reviewing public art for new development
projects.
Assigns responsibility to the City Manager, or
his designee, for the administration of the Pub-
lic Art Program.
Clarifies the process for the approval of pub-
lic art for new development.
Expands the requirement for maintenance and
replacement of public art for new development.
Revises the eligible uses for the Public Art Fund.
Requires the creation of an annual Public Art
Workplan developed by the Public Art Committee.

I can't say enough about Mason's easy-going professionalism. I have
worked with many real estate agentsbuying and selling a homesome
good and some not so good, but Mason stands above the rest. Although a
busy agent, he made us feel like we were his only clients. It is obvious that
Mason takes pride in his work and helped us through what has usually
been a very stressful process. We were always informed, updated and met
personally when needed. There was never pressure, unnecessary stress or
unanswered questions. I will recommend everyone I know to Mason!
