Claremont McKenna College President Hiram Chodosh attends a rally on Wednesday on the Hub patio at the
school. Student protesters were upset over a recent photograph showing two white CMC students wearing Halloween costumes that were viewed as disparaging to Hispanics. They said the photo reflected a pattern at the
school where people of color feel unwelcome. Amid protests, the CMC Dean of Students Mary Spellman resigned.

Dear Editor:
I spent 28 years as a university president, first at the State University of New
York, College at Old Westbury and later
at the Claremont University Consortium
and Claremont Graduate University in
California.
Since my retirement in 1998, I have
been a senior fellow in the Institute for
Democratic Renewal in CGUs School of
Politics and Economics and a senior consultant to Project Change, where we engage in a range of racial and social
justice activities and democratic community-building projects.
I have also served on the boards of
Union Theological Seminary, the
NAACP Legal Defense and Education
Fund, the Toms Rivera Policy Institute,
and the Eureka Communities.
Inspired by my friendship with Dr.
Martin Luther King Jr., Ive spent much
of my career working against racism,
both in schools and across all levels of
society, writing and speaking on the relation of moral philosophy and religious
thought to contemporary society, human
rights, social justice and education.
In my years of fighting for equality
Ive learned many things, one of them
being, you cannot let your fear of public
opinion dictate your actions. The fight
for social justice demands more from
leaders. Governor Martin OMalley has
started many unpopular battles and he
has finished all of them.
When Governor OMalley promised
to eliminate the death penalty, pass smart
gun legislation to save lives and make
college affordable to all Marylanders,
these werent popular stances and yet
through his tenacity and perseverance as
a progressive executive, he got this legislation enacted.

Governor OMalley is a true leader
who stands firm in his principles. If Dr.
King had listened to popular opinion, the
civil rights movement would have been
derailed by compromise and hate would
have triumphed.
In a time where it seems easy to distrust the political system, we must champion a new leader who does not break or
bend but works for the good of all people.
For this reason, Im supporting Governor Martin OMalleys candidacy in the
presidential election. I urge you join me
in standing with him to rebuild the American Dream for all Americans.

Dear Editor:
You should be responsible to the people of the city and, in order to prevent a
federal investigation of the mayor and
council members as is being done in
Palm Springs, investigate and be transparent with all the parties involved and
related cost proposals and financing or
taxing of residents.
Claremont was a small college residential town and, as people move in with
their agendas and get elected, it has and
is becoming a mini-metropolis.
Politicos should leave some things
alone, particularly wasteful decoration of
streets and sidewalks.

CMC dean resigns after protest over racial issues on campus
laremont McKenna
Colleges dean of students entered her resignation Thursday in response to
pressure from students over an
email perceived as racially insensitive.
Mary Spellmans resignation, effective immediately, comes a day after a
heated demonstration in front of the
Hub patio on Wednesday, where students protested against alleged racial
discrimination and what is viewed as
lack of support from campus officials.
In her letter, sent out to students and
faculty, Ms. Spellman says she is stepping down with sadness beyond
words.
To all who have been so supportive,
please know how sorry I am if my decision disappoints you, Ms. Spellman
wrote. I believe it is the best way to
gain closure of a controversy that has
divided the student body and disrupted
the mission of this fine institution.
Tensions came to a head at CMC
Wednesday afternoon when scores of
studentsmostly of color and from
other traditionally underrepresented
groupsshared stories and demands
during the hour-long demonstration, expressing their frustrations with the campus climate and calling on
administrators to provide more resources for minority students as well as
a sense of safety on campus. CMC
President Hiram Chodosh and Ms.
Spellman were present to engage the
students and try to offer explanations
and solutions.
This is a very emotional moment
for our college, Mr. Chodosh told the
simmering crowd. I cant begin to reinforce the voices that youve heard. I
am personally moved by them.
The CMC protest comes nearly two
weeks after a photo was posted on
Facebook showing two white McKenna
students dressed in what was deemed a
stereotypical costume that was offensive to Latino and Hispanic people. The
photo was shared throughout social
media, causing outrage among students
of color at CMC.
One of the women in the photo was
junior class president Kris Brackmann,
who was dressed as Justin Bieber and
holding a sign saying, Sorry, in reference to the singers latest hit. In response to the uproar, Ms. Brackmann,
who was not dressed in the offending
costume, resigned from her post.
Screen shots of emails sent by one of
the two female students who dressed in
Pancho Villa-style costumes went viral
among CMC students. An email addressed to CMC student Casey
Garcelon from one of the students,
whose name is blocked out, said, I saw
your recent post of me and my friends
from Halloween and I just wanted to
personally apologize if I offended you
from our costume choice! That was
definitely not our [intention] and I
promise it was not coming from a place
COURIER photo/Matthew Bramlett

Claremont McKenna College Dean of Students Mary Spellman, seen here listening
to students concerns during a rally at CMCs Hub patio on Wednesday, resigned
Thursday after student protesters called for her firing or resignation over statements
she made in a recent email that were taken to be racially biased.
[of] intentional harm. Again I am so

sorry if I or we made you uncomfortable! Everyone at the Claremont Colleges has the right to feel comfortable
and I feel terrible.
The student then explained that all of
the offending photos from the Halloween gathering had been deleted and
asked if there was anything she could
do to make you feel better about the
situation. The student also asked if
Ms. Garcelon would be willing to remove the photo from her Tumblr blog,
fresherthanyouheaux.tumblr.com.
All contact with these women
stopped after we made it clear that pictures were not being removed, Ms.
Garcelon wrote. This shows that their
intent was not to actually apologize, but
to get us to take down the image and
forget it happened. An hour after my
post was made, the dean on duty for the
weekend called me. She did not ask me
how I was feeling, if the administration
could support me in any way, or give
me any insight to disciplinary action
that would follow. Instead, she let me
know my classmates weredistraught
anddisappointed in themselves for
their actions.
The offending photo on Ms.
Garcelons Tumblr page is captioned,
Dear Claremont community, For anyone who ever tries to invalidate the experiences of [people of color] at the
Claremont Colleges, here is a reminder
of why we feel the way we do. Dont
tell me Im overreacting, dont tell me
Im being too sensitive. My voice will
not be silenced. Im mentally drained
from being a part of this community
and Ive had enough. If you feel uncomfortable by my cover photo, I want
you to know I feel uncomfortable as a
person of color every day on this campus.
Prior to the Halloween holiday,
posters were displayed across campus
warning students against donning culturally insensitive costumes. In one
poster, a woman is seen holding a picture of a costume nearly identical to
what the students were wearing in the
controversial photo.
But the issues at CMC didnt start
with a single, ill-conceived Halloween
photo, according to student and rally
co-organizer Aaron McKinney.
This has been an ongoing problem,
not just at CMC but across all five
Claremont Colleges, Mr. McKinney
said. Theres been a feeling and a sentiment of racism and micro-aggressions
that students of marginalized back-
grounds continue to feel, not only from

the student body but also from our faculty. It took a spark from that picture
for something more to happen.
Mr. McKinney told the COURIER
that students began meeting months
ago and had been planning to act long
before the picture surfaced.
An impetus for these meetings was a
list of recommendations given to the
presidents office by students last April,
which included a desire for a safe
space, or resource center, for CMC
students of different backgrounds to
congregate.
According to students, CMC administrators promised such a sanctuary
would be open at the beginning of the
fall semester. The deal was rescinded,
however, with CMC claiming that
space was insufficient. During the rally,
Associated Students of Claremont
McKenna College (ASCMC) President
Will Su offered his offices as a temporary space for students until a permanent one is created.
Throughout the rally, students shared
stories of how they were mistreated and
marginalized at CMCby both students and facultydue to their skin
color or ethnic background from both
students and faculty.
An incident frequently mentioned
throughout the event was an email sent
out by Ms. Spellman that many took as
a slight against minority students. In the
email, addressed to Lisette Espinosa,
who wrote an article describing her
negative experiences on campus for
The Student Life, Ms. Spellman wrote,
in full:
Thank you for writing and sharing
the article with me. We have a lot to do
as a college and community. Would you
be willing to talk with me sometime
about these issues? They are important
to me and [dean of students] staff and
we are working on how we can better
serve our students, especially those
who dont fit the CMC mold. I would
love to talk with you more.
During the rally, students frequently
called for Ms. Spellmans termination
and held up signs reading F**k your
CMC mold and Im not your CMC
mold. Two students, Taylor Lemmon
and Zain el-Jazara, announced they
would go on hunger strikes until Ms.
Spellman was fired or resigned.
Ms. Spellman again apologized to
students during the rally and insisted
she is dedicated to creating inclusive
programs and helping underrepresented
students at CMC. She later told the
COURIER the email was sent in a sincere attempt to help the student.
The wording was wrong, the intent
was not, Ms. Spellman said.
But some students, such as Mr.
McKinney, remain unconvinced.
I dont believe theyre doing everything they can do in their power to create a space that is safe for all their
students on our campus, Mr. McKinney said. I really wish I would have
seen more from these high figures that
are part of our student faculty.

Council approves police chief retirement, appointment
he Claremont City Council approved

the appointment of retiring police
chief Paul Cooper as interim chief on
Tuesday, a move that could potentially leave
him in the drivers seat of the department for
another year.
Mr. Cooper announced his retirement to City Manager

Tony Ramos on November 4, one day after Measure PS
failed. According to the city, Mr. Coopers final day as police chief will be December 31, 2015, with his retirement
beginning January 1, 2016.
During discussion, Councilmember Opanyi Nasiali
wondered if the city could bring an outside candidate as
interim, possibly on a less expensive contract.
Theres a learning curve with that, Mr. Ramos responded. Most likely it will be someone who is retired
as well, and that will just take longer to get that person up
to speed and move all of the issues we have before the police department forward.
Mr. Ramos asserted that leaving Mr. Cooper as interim chief will save the most money for the city, to the
tune of $145,000.
The reason we have that $145,000 in savings is because were not paying the PERS, were not paying deferred compensation, were not paying medical benefitsall of that will have to be paid for by the chief
because hes retired, Mr. Ramos said. We will not be
paying any of those, so thats where our savings come
from.
No discussion was held at the council meeting as to
whether a current Claremont police captain or lieutenant
could possibly fill the role.
The proposed employment agreement with Mr. Cooper
has a total maximum cost to the city of approximately
$218,000 including $193,000 for salary and $25,000 in
workers compensation insurance and Medicare costs
combined.
In an effort to prevent double-dipping, CalPERS
mandates that after retirement, any public agency em-
ployee can earn only 173.333 of the average monthly

salary of someone in a similar position.
Hours are not to exceed 960 in any fiscal year. Mr.
Coopers interim assignment could straddle two fiscal
yearsJanuary to July 2016 and August to December
2016allowing for full-time employment.
CalPERS also says that retired public employees cannot receive any benefit, incentive, compensation in lieu
of benefits or other form of compensation in addition to
the hourly pay rate.
Mr. Ramos said that the extra cost of workers compensation and Medicare is tacked on due to state law.
[Mr. Cooper] only gets salary, Mr. Ramos said. The
state mandates that we have to pay workers comp and
Medicare to all employees. Not even PERS can touch
that.
As interim, Chief Cooper will receive the $193,000 in
hourly pay on top of his PERS retirement salary of
$175,799, or 90 percent of his highest salary.
Between his hourly wage and CalPERS, Mr. Cooper
will earn upwards of $370,000 as interim chief next year,
should his appointment extend to the end of 2016. Funding will be paid for through the operating budget of the police department.
CalPERS investments now pay 64 cents of every dollar, according to CalPERS. In addition to investment income, money paid to CalPERS pensioners comes from a
combination of public agency and employee contributions.
On average, cities contribute 22 cents of every pension
dollar paid. Employees who retire with CalPERS benefits
contribute anywhere from eight to11 percent of their takehome pay to help fund their own pensions. According to
Chief Coopers latest contract, he contributed nine percent.
Councilmember Sam Pedroza praised Mr. Cooper for
his dedication to the force and said the chiefs retirement
was not a result of the failure of Measure PS.
This decision was made before this vote even happened, Mr. Pedroza said.
At Tuesdays meeting, Mr. Ramos explained the reason
Mr. Cooper is submitting his retirement now is his desire
to get his CalPERS paperwork in order before January 1.

A septuagenarian man flashed his genitals at a Starbucks employee while at the
drive-thru on the 800 block of south Indian Hill Boulevard. At approximately 5
p.m., the man ordered a Venti Caramel
Frappuccino with two extra shots and
pulled up to the drive-thru window, where
he exposed himself, according to Lt. Mike
Ciszek of the Claremont Police Department. The man is described as in his 70s,
with white hair and a white beard. He is
missing his left leg. According to witnesses, he was driving a white work truck
with red lettering on the back. Anyone
with information should contact the
Claremont PD at (909) 399-5411.
for burglary and transported to CPD jail

where he was booked.

A San Dimas man was arrested when a
call about a suspicious vehicle turned into
a drug discovery. Residents on the 700
block of Via Espirito Santos Street called
police regarding a suspicious vehicle in
the area. When officers arrived at approximately 10:06 p.m., the car sped away at a
high rate of speed. When officers pulled
the car over, they found the driver, 51year-old Charles Hogarty, was in possession of methamphetamine in the
passenger floorboards of the car. Mr. Hogarty was transported to CPD jail where he
was booked.
Thursday, November 5
Claremont police arrested a man for
burglary after he entered a garage through
a side door. The owner of the home, located on the 400 block of Bowling Green
Drive, noticed 28-year-old Cameron Hall
of Claremont in the garage at approximately 9:40 p.m. When the homeowner
asked Mr. Hall what he was doing in his
garage, he said he was looking for an unknown family member of the homeowner and asked to use their phone. When
police arrived, Mr. Hall claimed he was
trying to get a ride. Mr. Hall was arrested
Friday, November 6
Who knew the Claremont police made
house calls? When officers pulled over
41-year-old Joseph Burciaga of Upland at
approximately 8:29 p.m. for speeding, the
first thing Mr. Burciaga said to the officer
was, Hi, doctor! Naturally, officers conducted a field sobriety test and found that
Mr. Burciagas blood alcohol content was
over one and a half times the legal limit.
He was also slurring his speech and
smelled strongly of libations. Mr. Burciaga was transported to the CPD jail,
where he was held in the drunk tank and
So that is why he needs this additional few weeks to

get that in and why he is before you this evening, Mr.
Ramos said. It is not because of Measure PS.
During public comment, Claremont resident and cochair of the Yes on Measure PS campaign Betty Crocker
thanked Mr. Cooper for his work on the force.
He has worked tirelessly on a model that is known as
community policing, and I believe Chief Cooper to be
the example of that, Ms. Crocker said.
Mayor Corey Calaycay sought to dispel concerns critics may have about Mr. Cooper collecting PERS while he
works as interim chief.
Theres nothing wrong with how were handling the
situation, Mr. Calaycay said. And I think the point has
been made that any interim, if youre going to get an interim, is going to be somebody that is previously retired
from the PERS system. Youre not going to get around the
fact that for people who have heartburn about PERS or the
elements of PERS. Youre still going to have a situation
where its not going to address some of their concerns.
Mr. Calaycay explained that other city employees, such
as interim Community Services Director Pat Molloy and
city contractor Belle Newman, currently receive CalPERS
benefits.
Mr. Pedroza agreed with the citys recommendation,
claiming its the best-case scenario while the city looks for
the chiefs replacement.
These are really big shoes to fill. I appreciate we were
given at least a year to really get this going and find that
fit for our city, Mr. Pedroza said. Ill admit, and I think
its no secret, Claremonts a tough town. Its a tough town
to manage and Im sure its a very tough town to police.
Its a big task to try to find that fit, not replace, but to carry
on the good work that Chief Cooper has had in this city
and our police department is known for.
The resolution passed unanimously, 4-0. Councilmember Larry Schroeder was absent. More on the
other items presented during Tuesdays council meeting
will be included online and in the November 20 edition of
the COURIER.

The DUI beat was not finished last
weekend. Claremont police noticed a car
driving without its headlights on just after
midnight early Sunday morning. When
they pulled the driver over near the intersection of Foothill and Amherst, they noticed Lorena Grau, 36, had telltale signs
of intoxication. When officers asked her
to step out of her vehicle, they noticed a
large aount of vomit on the drivers side
panel of the car, according to Lt. Ciszek.
Ms. Grau initially claimed she had nothing to drink, but field sobriety tests revealed she was nearly two times over the
legal limit. Ms. Grau was arrested and
transported to CPD jail, where she was
held to sober up.

Meanwhile, Claremont police responded to yet another fight at Piano
Piano. Officers arrived at the establishment at 1:52 a.m. to find two men, 23year-old Isreal Herrera of Fontana and
22-year-old Juan Ortega of Coachella, unwinding in the immediate aftermath of a

CMC PROTEST/from previous page
The rally comes on the heels of increased tension at

the University of Missouri, where days of intense
demonstrations led to the resignations of the universitys president and chancellor. At Wednesdays rally,
a student held a sign that expressed solidarity with
Mizzou.
The situation is far from isolated. As detailed in a
recent article in The Atlantic, students at Yale are calling for the resignation of two married professors. The
woman, a professor of early childhood development,
sent out an email to the students in the dorm she supervised questioning the wisdom of the schools attempts to mandate Halloween political correctness.
If a student wore a costume that was ethnically insensitive, she argued, they would learn from the disapproval they spurred and the incident could
potentially trigger healthy debate. Her husband, it
would seem, is guilty by association.
In The Atlantic article, titled The New Intolerance
of Student Activism, staff writer Conor Friedersdorf
noted that hundreds of students have asked for the
professors resignation, claiming the email, equates
old traditions of using harmful stereotypes and tropes
to further degrade marginalized people, and fail[s]
to distinguish the difference between cosplaying fic-

tional characters and misrepresenting actual groups of

people.
After the rally at CMC, Mr. Chodosh said the college should heed the words of the students and work
to create a college atmosphere that is inclusive to
everyone.
Student voices and experiences are very powerful,
singularly powerful, Mr. Chodosh said. And we really need to absorb and listen to them. And I think we
need to redouble our efforts in concrete ways so that
every one of our students feels supported and feels a
sense of full belonging.
The dust-up continued in the wake of Ms. Spellmans announcement, with upwards of 1000 students
gathering to protest again on Thursday afternoon,
many chanting, fight for freedom!
Posts on Yik Yak, a social media app favored by
college students, show that the CMC community is
not of one mind. Some students continue to lambast
Ms. Spellman, calling her apology disingenuous, in
one case accompanied by the hashtag #remorseless.
Others expressed dismay, calling Ms. Spellmans resignation the result of bullying and saying the strong
reaction to poorly-chosen wording indicates free
speech is endangered on campus.

Genes that fit
by Debbie Carini
was standing outside of a womens

dressing room last weekend, holding
a pile of clothes for my daughter who
was amassing a more professional
wardrobe for her new job. As I stood
there, I noticed another woman making
her way to the fitting room with her 3- or
4-year-old daughter in tow.
Put that down, I heard her say to the little girl.

No, came the reply.
The headstrong little miss was clutching a leopardprint jewelry box, which was nearly as large as she, to
her chest. She defiantly took a seat between two mannequins.
It was the mothers move, and she swiftly exercised
the upper hand (and height advantage), scooping up
the toddler, box and all, as she continued with her
business.
From the dressing room, I could hear the small
child explaining to the mother, I need this.
I tried to imagine what precipitated her yearning for
the faux-red-leather-clad case. Just exactly what kind
of jewels did she have at home that might require
such a large receptacle?

I need this!
How many times had I heard the occupant of the
dressing room just a few doors down from Elizabeth
Taylor, Jr. utter those words? My daughter needed
purses before she was able to have an ID; she needed
high heels when she was still wearing sparkle-studded
Barney T-shirts (thats Barney the dinosaur; mercifully,
it would be a few years before she found out about Barneysthe New York department store).
She knew what she wanted, and what she wanted to
wear; in fact, the first coordinated move she made
when she was barely four months old was to reach
into her hair and pull out the lacey barrettes her
grandmother had happily placed there.
When youre not a big shopper or particularly fashionable, like me, the only qualifications for most
items, from jeans to sofas, is, will it fit? and (as a
mother) is it stain-repellant?
Somehow, like the piano prodigy who is born to

Police receive grant for traffic

enforcement, crash prevention
The Claremont Police Department has been
awarded a $98,200 grant from the California Office of
Traffic Safety (OTS) for a year-long program of special enforcements and public awareness efforts to prevent traffic-related deaths and injuries.
CPD will use the funding as part of the citys ongoing commitment to keep our roadways safe and im-
parents who cant read music, my daughter developed

a love of designer labels and a strong fashion sense
despite the fact that she was being raised by a person
who will cut the labels out of shirts because sometimes theyre scratchy. I appreciate designers and
know about them, just like I appreciate and know
about fine art, but I dont have any Picassos hanging
in my home. When Im shopping for myself, the only
two labels I usually look for are clearance and
elastic waistband.
My daughter stepped out of the dressing room in a
fashionable sweater and skirt. She looked great.
There are genes you give your children and you
know theyre there because your son smiles back at
you with twinkling blue eyes that could only come
from the Carini side and your daughter talks so fast,
some people think she has a speech impediment (this
actually happened to me in fifth grade, shortly after
my family moved to California. I had to go to speech
therapy, where I continually tried to explain to my
therapist that I was Italian and from New Jersey,
Thats just how we tawk!).
And then there are the things your kids do because
there is no one else like them. As my daughter posed
in her impossibly chic outfit, I thought to myself: she
may not have gotten designer genes from me, but
thanks to that, she knows what to wear with her jeans!
prove the quality of life through both enforcement
and education.
Traffic safety continues to be a priority for our
agency and for the community, said Claremont Police
Department Captain Shelly Vander Veen. We are excited to partner with the Office of Traffic Safety, in our
ongoing effort to improve traffic safety, specifically reducing the number of injury and fatal accidents,
Activities that the grant will fund include educational presentations, DUI checkpoints, DUI saturation
patrols, motorcycle safety and distracted driving enforcement as well as seat belt and child safety seat enforcement and bicycle and pedestrian safety
enforcement, among other endeavors.
Funding for this program is from the California Office of Traffic Safety through the National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration.
This seems like a silly way to spend the day.
Why we voted no
Dear Editor:
What is the highest and best use of
an empty rock quarry? Is it not in the
vital function of ground water
recharge? Thompson Creek could be
diverted and that water should be
recharged into our aquifer rather than
rushed out to sea.
The police station is a vital, critically
important facility and should not be
built on fill. Remember what happened
during the Loma Prieta earthquake to
the marina district?
Our population has increased by
about 50 percent and doesnt warrant a
facility that is five times the size of the
old one. We also dont have the crime
attractions of the Montclair Plaza, so it
is a fallacy to compare the needs of
Claremont to Montclair.
It is wrong to put a fixed charge on
the tax bills of every taxpayer in the
city without indexing it to the value of
the property. Seniors and families in
smaller, older homes are barely making ends meet and shouldnt be required to pay the same fee as Super
King, car dealerships or families in
multi-million dollar mansions.
READERS COMMENTS
Colleges, univerisities and nonprofits

can afford to pay their due assessment .
It is wrong to lump costs such as
software and technological upgrades
into a 40-year bond. It is foolish to pay
40 years of interest on something that is
outdated in five years. Is it possible to
pursue a grant from Homeland Security
for the purchase of technological upgrades?
Why was the Rich property developed for further housing/commercial
use when it probably had a greater
value in being used as a site for the police station?
Lets talk to Richard Hibbard once
again.
The city yard across from the Claremont Tennis Club is under-utilized;
perhaps the city could approach Corey
Nursery, which previously had offered
their property to the city for the police
station, and see if we could be allowed
to purchase it now.
We have options. Lets not saddle the
taxpayers with such an outrageously
overpriced police station bond. We already know we'll have to deal with the
water company acquisition.

Teen to appear in
court on murder
charge, bail set
A 14-year-old Claremont boy,
Nathaniel Geurts, who is a suspect
in his sisters death, will be arraigned
on December 9, according to the Los
Angeles Superior Court.
Nathaniel, who is in custody for
the stabbing death of 15-year-old
Aspen Geurts, appeared in court on
Monday morning before his arraignment was pushed. He will appear in
Pomona Superior Court at 8:30 a.m.
on December 9 in department F. The
boy was remanded into custody, and
his bail was set at $10 million.
The boy, who will be tried as an
adult, is accused of stabbing his sister with a kitchen knife on November 4 in the back yard of the family
home, located on the 300 block of
Andover Drive. Neither parent was
home at the time.
He was found a short time later
walking away from the scene holding the alleged murder weapon and
was arrested.
Lieutenant Mike Ciszek of the
Claremont Police Department would
not elaborate on a possible motive.
The motive is still kind of shaky,
it vacillates, he said. Its kind of
hard to say whats going on.
Lt. Ciszek said there was no
record of mental illness, but said the
boy exhibited a questionable mental status when he was taken into
custody.

OBITUARIES
Proud veteran, realist

Joseph I. Hess died at Hillcrest Homes
in La Verne on October 29, 2015 after a
brief illness. He was 86.
He was a man devoted to family, the
fellowship of those in the US Army who
served in the Korean War, his business interests and travel.
Born in San Diego on March 26, 1929,
Joe was an Eagle Scout. After high
school, he pursued his love of photography before being drafted into the army.
He later met Rosemarie Cohen, who
was his nurse at Letterman Army Hospital in San Franciscos Presidio, during his
yearlong hospitalization from numerous
injuries sustained during the Korean War.
They married in 1959 and raised two chil-
dren while living in San Francisco, Atherton and Tiburon. In 2004, they moved to
La Verne. While Rosemarie died in 2012,
Mr. Hess remained devoted to her
throughout a long illness.
He was an excellent businessman and,
in his own words, a realist, finding a way
to success despite his war-related disabilities. He constantly counseled patience in
all endeavors, and he enjoyed the benefits
of a life well-managed and well-lived.
One of Mr. Hess greatest passions was
collaborating with other Korean War veteranswho were able to reconnect due to
his efforts to reunite the men of the Second Division, 23rdInfantry Regiment, A
Company.
Aspen Geurts
A community memorial service for Aspen
Geurts will be held Thursday, November 19
at 4 p.m. at the Claremont United Church of
Christ (CUCC), located at 233 W. Harrison
Ave., at the corner of Harvard and Harrison.
Aspen, a 15-year-old Claremont resident,
died Wednesday, November 4 due to injuries
sustained in a stabbing at her home. Aspen
attended Chaparral Elementary School and El
Roble Intermediate and was a student at

Glendora High.
A friend of the Geurts family has set up a
GoFund account under Prayers in Action for
the Geurts Family, to help raise funds for
Aspens funeral and to pay for temporary
housing for the family.
The page can be found by visiting
www.gofundme.com/mx96j6cc.
In 2013, Joe married Marceline Koch

Hanawalt, a longtime friend and a wonderful companion who he met at Hillcrest.
They enjoyed many travels together and
truly enjoyed each others company until
Marceline passed away in January 2015.
Mr. Hess leaves behind a family that is
grateful for his commitment to his loved
ones as well as his humor, work ethic,
tenacity and attitude toward life. He is survived by his daughter Sandra Hess, son
Gregory Hess (Lora) and granddaughters
Abigail and Meredith.
A Celebration of Life will be held
Monday, November 30 at2 p.m.in the
Maury Smeltzer Lounge at Hillcrest, 2701

A vision for implementing the Foothill Boulevard Master Plan

by Mark vonWodtke
fter a two-year study, The city of

Claremont approved the Foothill
Boulevard Master Plan. The next
step is to do implementation documents. A
key question is what form will the improvements take? How can they best serve
our green infrastructure and express the heritage of Claremont?
Foothill Boulevard was originally part of Route 66.
This ribbon of pavement stretched from Chicago to Santa
Monica, and is still celebrated today. Route 66 is an icon
known throughout the world. It is the setting for the classic Grapes of Wrath and the animated film Cars.
If you visit the Baghdad caf in the Mojave Desert
near Newberry Springs, you will see the original twolane highway with drainage ditches on either sideno
curbs, no gutters, just guard rails were there were hazards.
In Claremont and other places, the road was often
widened to three lanes. It was further improved in Claremont after the 1938 Flood washed out a segment at the
East end of town. These improvements included a four
Lane Boulevard with a median with eucalyptus trees
which still exist.
Curbs, gutters, and storm drains were added to control the runoff generated by the large expanse of pavement. This runoff is sent to flood control channels which
often flow into lakes and the ocean without any purification. Much of the parkway evolved into having irrigated landscape to the detriment of the drought-tolerant
trees.
VIEWPOINT
With the new master plan, we have the opportunity to

reduce the paved area, remove curbs and gutters and capture storm water in bioswales and drywells along the side
of the road. We can add guard rails where there are hazards, returning to the character of old Route 66. Imagine,
a stretch of Route 66 with no curbs along the Biological
Field Station featuring views of the San Gabriel Mountains in the background which still look much like those
shown on the beautifully illustrated cover of Steinbeck's
book Grapes of Wrath.
Reducing pavement and eliminating curbs and gutters
could reduce construction and maintenance costs and
would improve drainage by allowing water to flow directly into bioswales with drywells.
In a normal storm, runoff would be biologically
cleaned as it percolates into the aquifer. Under more intense storms, bioswales increase the capacity of system.
Only excess runoff would go into storm drains. The MS4
mandate requires Claremont to capture and clean runoff.
To comply, the city has designated Foothill Boulevard
as the place to begin making improvements to our green
storm drainage infrastructure. Careful compliance will
also help Claremont capture water for our local wells.
Imported water is likely to become less available and increasingly expensive as California experiences prolonged drought and eventual saltwater intrusion into the
Delta.
Percolating water into the parkway also provides natural irrigation for street trees. Street trees are an important part of our green infrastructure helping to capture
storm water and provide shade. Trees filter particulates

from the air while assimilating carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen. Consequently, we should plan for an
abundance of trees along Foothill Boulevard.
Using permeable pavement for bike trails and walkways could also reduce construction and maintenance
costs while adding to the permeable area needed for percolating water.
Many places in Europe (even elegant parks in Paris)
have wonderful permeable surfaces. These surfaces dont
crack like concrete and dont need to have a polluting
slurry seal every seven years, like asphalt. They are simply raked and rolled to provide a smooth surface on
which to walk or ride a bike.
Guardrails, like those used on the historic Route 66,
could protect cars and people. Class 2 bike lanes are risky
along a major highway. Class 1 bike trails, and walkways
separated by guard rails, would be much safer.
The Foothill Boulevard Master Plan is also the beginning of our Urban Forest Master Plan. Claremont could
expand this Urban Forest Master Plan to regenerate what
we are losing due to drought and disease along other
major streets as well as into neighborhoods that are currently underserved.
Funds currently budget for implementing the Foothill
Master Plan improvements could also serve as matching
funds for grants from Cap and Trade to capture carbon
dioxide, as well as Prop 1 Grants from the State Water
Resources Board to capture ground water. There are also
grants for safer pedestrian and bicycle access that Claremont has successfully obtained in the past.
Lets come together as a community to implement a
vision that gets the maximum benefit from Claremont's
investment in Foothill Boulevard.

OBITUARIES
Celebrated journalist
Pioneering journalist Louie Robinson died of heart
failure on October 2, 2015 at Northwestern Memorial
Hospital in Chicago, two days shy of his 89th birthday. He had lived in Claremont since 1963.
Mr. Robinson wrote for Ebony for three decades,
serving as the magazines west coast editor for much
of that time, as well as contributing to publications like
Jet and Negro Digest.
If you open up an Ebony from the 1960s to the
mid-1980s, youll see something written by my dad,
his daughter Robin Robinson said in an obituary published in the Chicago Sun-Times. There were times
when three-quarters of the content was written by my
dad.
Mr. Robinson was an author as well, with the books
Arthur Ashe: Tennis Legend (1967) and The Black
Millionaires (1973) to his credit. He co-authored Nat
King Cole: An Intimate Biography with the late
singers wife Maria Cole and helped Sidney Poitier
prepare his memoirs.
Never in my life have I known a better man, Mr.
Poitier said in an Ebony tribute. His life was an experience that will leave behind memories of major importance. In his life, from which many humane
experiences have arisen to the benefit of so many of
his fellow human beings, he has always stood strong
and he has always reached out to those in need.
Most often, Mr. Robinson reached out through writing.
During his tenure with the Johnson Publishing company, the pages of Ebony and Jet teemed with his
sprawling profiles of luminaries like Diana Ross,
Nancy Wilson, Quincy Jones, Sammy Davis Jr., Harry
Belafonte, Richard Prior, Redd Foxx, Wilt Chamberlain, Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald, Jackie Robinson,
Marlon Brando and the Jackson family.
Robinson defied the odds during a time when
America denied the existence of Black excellence,
the Ebony piece emphasized. Through his work, the
journalist showcased some of the nations most famous symbols of Black achievement.
At times, his willingness to tackle any subject led to
a touch of danger. In a September 1965 edition of Jet,
Charles E. Brown recounted his experience covering
the recent Watts riots. The unrest lasted six days and
resulted in 34 deaths, 1,032 injuries, nearly 4,000 arrests and the destruction of $40 million of property.
The rioting started on a Wednesday. On Monday,
the reporter suggested that Mr. Robinson, who was the
publications west coast bureau chief, accompany him
on a tour of the riot zone. The men had passed five
National Guard checkpoints and had just passed the
intersection of Avalon Boulevard and Slauson Avenue
when 30 police cars pulled up.
The officers exited their vehicles and began shooting at an apartment building, eventually drawing out
40 to 50 people. For 15 minutes, the gun battle ensued, Mr. Brown wrote. When the shooting subsided, Robinson and I got up off the floor of the car.
Mr. Robinsons willingness to track a story to the
source also came into play in a matter involving a musical giants reputation.
In 1957, the tabloid Sepia ran an article called
How Negroes Feel About Elvis. Elvis Presley was
painted as a racist and quoted as having once cracked,
The only thing Negroes can do for me is shine my
shoes and buy my records.
When Mr. Robinson interviewed Mr. Presley on the
set of his movie Jailhouse Rock, he was unequivocal:
I never said anything like that, and people who know
me know that I wouldnt have said it. Mr. Presleys
black colleagues, who said he viewed the person, not
their color, supported the statement.
In several hundred words, Mr. Robinson had cleared
the Kings name. His own story started in Dallas,
Texas, where he was born in 1926. He grew up in the
COURIERarchive photo
Louie Robinson in his Claremont home office in 1979.
town of Mineral Wells and was raised by his mother

Bessie, who was a domestic worker. His grandfather
J.U. Wyatt, a longtime waiter at the Baker Hotel,
helped support the family.
He also provided his grandson with the once-aweek 15 cent admission to the Gem Theaters balcony
(especially reserved for those of my color) and an inevitable bag of gum drops, Mr. Robinson wrote in a
1971 article about returning to his hometown.
Young Louie developed a hankering to write early
on. He was a voracious reader of newspapers and had
been encouraged by an English teacher. His mother
laid the foundation for him to follow his dream by insisting he learn to type; she hoped the skill would lead
to inside work for her son.
He left town when he was 16 to seek his fortune. In
the Ebony story, Mr. Robinson wrote about why he escaped Mineral Wells.
The place had been reasonably kind to me as a
child, in the indulgent way that some Southern towns
can be kind to black boys, he said. But I saw its approaching crueltythat time when, as a man, I would
find myself still confined to a boys work: shining
shoes, cleaning up barrooms or being a handyman at
something less than a mans wages.
He enrolled at Lincoln University in Missouri, the
only black college in country with a school of journalism. His studies were interrupted when he was drafted
into the army in 1945 during the end of World War II.
During basic training, he was assigned to a group of
combat engineers, until one day his supervisor asked if
anyone in the outfit could type. Mr. Robinson spoke
up and as a result remained in administrative posts
until he was honorably discharged.
When he left the army, rather than returning to his
studies, Mr. Robinson became involved in the startup
of a weekly paper called the Tyler Tribune in Tyler,
Texas. He later earned an honorary degree from his
alma mater of Lincoln University.
A young woman named Mati attended a reception
for the newly launched publication where she met
Louie. They hit it off and were married in 1951. After
two years, the newspaper was doing so well it was
bought out, moved to Dallas and rebranded as the Dallas Morning Star.
Mr. Robinson next worked for The Afro-American
in Baltimore. Before long, he was recruited by John H.
Johnson as a writer for

Johnsons Publishing.
The company produced
Ebony and Jet, groundbreaking black news
magazines with a national audience.
In 1960, Mr. Robinson was asked to relocate to Los Angeles to
manage the publishing
companys west coast
affairs. The family
moved to California, settling in Pomona in 1960
and Claremont in 1963.
Mr. Robinson would head to his Beverly Hills office to gather news. Then, he would return to Claremont, where hed type his stories in his home office.
You could hear the tapping of his typewriter, Mati
recalled. When he began using electric, it was pretty
noisy.
The Robinsons first child, a daughter named Robin,
was born in 1957. She went on to become a noted
news anchor and radio host. In the Chicago Sun-Times
obituary, she marveled at how, His fingers would fly
across the keyboard, and words with no errors would
fly across the page.
Sometimes the Robinsons would use their home to
quietly entertain people they met through the business,
folks like Sammy Davis Jr., Nancy Wilsonwho remains a family friendand Arthur Ashe, who convinced Louie and Mati to start playing recreational
tennis. Other times, the pair headed out to industry
events, including a dozen Academy Awards ceremonies. Ms. Robinson had a formula.
I had a little black dress I wore everywhere, she
told the COURIER. I knew better than to try and
compete.
Mr. Robinson loved what he was doing and always
felt he was making a difference.
I think that was the success of the Johnson Publishing company, that they tried to cover the whole countrywhat was going on at the time with integration
and segregation, Mati said.
Locally, Mr. Robinson taught classes in communications for the Claremont Colleges Black Studies
Center for several years. The Robinsons were also active in the Claremont community at large, where three
of their six children attended Claremont High School.
They were co-chairman for the Community Friends of
the Claremont Colleges and twice served as co-presidents; they were given the organizations Volunteers
of the Year award for their efforts. They enjoyed relaxing by playing tennis and golf.
COURIER publisher Peter Weinberger remembers
the Robinsons as regular guests at the Weinberger
home. Louie and Mati could talk politics with my father, Martin, for hours outside by the pool. Even after
dark, I could still hear them, just not see them.
Right up to the end, Mr. Robinson retained his characteristic humor, Mati said.
He had been at deaths door two or three times. He
knew he wasnt going to recover, she shared. On the
day he died, he said, A funny thing about this: I have
a habit of not dying when Im supposed to. He made
it as easy as it could be on the rest of us.
Mr. Robinson is survived by his wife of 62 years,
Mati; four of their six children, Toni Frazer, Michael
Robinson, Robin Robinson and Stacy RobinsonHinkhouse; son-in-law Lou Hinkhouse; 10 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren and five
great-great-grandchildren.
A memorial service in Claremont will be planned
for the spring.

he Claremont community converged at Memorial Park to celebrate their men and women in
uniform during the citys annual Veterans
Day celebration on Wednesday.
City officials like Mayor Corey Calaycay were onhand to pay tribute to those who served and, in some
cases, gave the ultimate sacrifice to their country. The
El Roble and Claremont High School marching band
played all the patriotic hits and Boy Scouts from local
Troop 408 unfurled the American flag, hoisting it atop
the Memorial Park flagpole.
Local veterans were present for the festivities and
were honored for their service. One such veteran was

during Operation Iraqi Freedom in the Civil Affairs
Battalion, working to rebuild markets, schools and hospitals across the war-torn nation.

Officer Ganino served in the Army during operation Iraqi Freedom.
ATLEFT: World War II veteran Jim Stripling listens to the remarks
American Legion Keith Powell Post 78 Commander Kevin Arnold. Mr.
Stripling served as a machine gunner in the Marines during the war
and was one of the first on men on the ground during the battle of
Guadalcanal.

Ms. Ganino was very moved by the citys ceremony.

It means the world to me to see everybody come out here and support us, Ms. Ganino said. Its such a special day. You think sometimes people forget, but this is just a reminder that people remember
our service and appreciate it.
Jim Stripling, a World War II veteran who served in the Pacific
Theater, was also appreciative of recognition during the event.
We left a lot of people out there, and recognizing us is in fact recognizing all the dead ones out there, Mr. Stripling said. It brings tears
to my eyes because I had a lot of friends that didnt come back. Youre
honoring those people. Not necessarily me but those who died for you,
damn it.
An emotional Mr. Calaycay also shared a personal story involving
his father, originally from the Philippines, who was saved by American soldiers during World War II and the Japanese invasion.
I cant help but reflect on the fact that if things had been different,
if the Americans had not gone in there and freed the Filipinos, [my father] might not be alive today, Mr. Calaycay said. Who I am and
what Im able to do today is because of your service.

THEATER William Shakespeares

Twelfth Night is a topsy-turvy world
which the clown character Feste describes as a place where, nothing that is
so, is so. Genders are reversed, issues of
class are put into question, and matters
of courtesy, humanity, revenge and retribution are primary. Love and music may
always be in the air, but that music and
romance are often jarring and discordant,
with a conclusion that is bittersweet, with
as much uncertainty as revelry and folly.

Wolfpack on track with dominant CIF performance
laremont High School

boys water polo
wasted no time setting
the pace Wednesday night during their first round CIF playoff game against visiting
California High School. In
fact, it took junior Bruno Snow
a mere handful of seconds to
score the Packs first goal and
they never looked back.
In the end, number-one ranked
Claremont outscored California in
every quarter, sailing to a 24-6 victory
and a trip to the quarterfinal match.
With powerful and aggressive play
from Snow, Johnathon Wong, Ian
Waasdorp and Mat Turk, Claremont
quickly took a 6-1 lead with four goals
coming from Snow alone. For a while
it seemed that Claremont could score at
will while the frustrated Condors just
watched.
On a breakaway Wong opted not to
shoot but swam around the goalkeeper
and simply deposited the ball in the net
with an outstretched hand. Impressive
as it was, the showmanship did draw
some comments from the Condor fans.
Once the Wolfpack was ahead by
six, Coach Kristin Rodriguez substituted in some of her younger players to
give them a taste of CIF competition.
California quickly took advantage of
the personnel changes and made a bit
of a run that brought them within four
goals of Claremont at the end of the
first quarter.
As play resumed in the second quarter the younger Claremont players
shook off the jitters and outscored California 5-2, exiting the pool at the half,
ahead 12-5.
With some of the big guns back in
the pool, Claremont scored six unanswered goals to open the third that
mentally defeated California. In fact,
the Condors would only score once in
the second half when a quick thinking
Jesus Padilla flicked one in the right
corner on a second chance effort after
the shot clock had expired.
One of the big questions facing the
defending CIF champions centered on
their defense now that star goalkeeper
Steven Cagle has graduated.
On Wednesday night, Kellan Grant
put any concern about a vacuum to rest
with a string of spectacular saves.
Grant also played a key role in keeping
the team organized.
Padilla had a spectacular night for
California, scoring three of his teams
goals with some fine powerful shots.
Teammate Jonah Phillips also had a
good night with two goals.
Not surprisingly, Claremonts top
scorer was Snow, who had seven goals
despite sitting out part of the game.
Wong came in a close second with
four, and in all 10 players scored at
least one goal.
It [the game] gave some of our

younger guys a chance to get a feel for

the playoffs. I think nerves always get
the best of you but in the third and
fourth quarter we executed what we
needed to, said Coach Rodriguez following the game
Asked about his game high of seven

goals Snow gave credit to the team.

am grateful when we have a game like
that; we were a cohesive unit tonight,

CHS ROUND-UP
FOOTBALL
On Friday night the Claremont High
School Football team lost a last minute
heart breaker to South Hills 28-27. The
Pack had the lead 27-20 late in the
game, but South Hills got a touch down
and two-point conversion with 30 seconds remaining. The loss also means
that Claremonts record of 7-3 will
leave the team out of the CIF playoffs.
Raine Pohaku Kaheaku-Paiva had an
impressive game with 160 total yards
and two touchdowns. He had six completions from eight attempts for 114
yards and 41 yards rushing.
Markelle Davis also had a big night
with 133 yards rushing and two touchdowns while star running back Duy
Tran-Sampson contributed 173 yards of
rushing.
Sophomore middle linebacker
Solomon Tuliaupupu had a great game
with 10 solo tackles and nine assists.
The usually disciplined Claremont

team had eight penalties, costing the
team 87 yards, which was a factor in the
eventual loss.
GIRLS VOLLEYBALL
Claremont High School won their
first round CIF playoff away game
against Apple Valley 3-0 (25-18, 25-12
25-20.) The team did not provide individual statistics. The Pack played Palm

second round. Results will be in our
next edition.

son] there was a lot of individual play

but lately we have been playing well
together. To see how the team blossoms
over the season, that is fun to watch.
California entered the CIF tournament as a wild card so it was a tough
draw to face the top seeded team right
off the bat. However, Coach Tim Woolston praised his team saying it was a
privilege and challenge to play
Claremont in the first round.
We accept all challenges, my boys
are taught to play the same way regardless of who the team is or what their
reputation is, he said.
These boys had a season last year
where they were 7-17 and this year
they are 17-9, so it was a huge turnaround. Weve seen tons of commitment and effort from them and
California High School is only going to
get better every year, said Coach
Woolston.
Riverside Poly defeated Cajon High
on Wednesday and now will face the
Pack in the quarterfinals on Saturday at
CHS.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER
ESTATE OF ANITA MOZELLE BARRETT
CASE NO. BP166612
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors,
and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will
or estate, or both, of ANITA MOZELLE BARRETT:
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by
LARRY L. HALL in the Superior Court of California, County of Los Angeles, Stanley Mosk Court.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that
LARRY L HALL be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
THE PETITION requests the decedents will and
codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and
any codicils are available for examination in the file
kept by the court.
The PETITION requests authority to administer the
estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining
court approval. Before taking certain very important
actions, however, the personal representative will be
required to give notice to interested persons unless
they have waived notice or consented to the proposed
action.) The independent administration authority
will be granted unless an interested person files an
objection to the petition and shows good cause why
the court should not grant the authority.
A HEARING ON THE PETITION WILL BE
HELD IN THIS COURT AS FOLLOWS:
Date: November 20, 2015 Time: 8:30 A.M. in Dept.:
79 Room: 610 located at:
Superior Court Of California,
County Of Los Angeles,
111 North Hill Street
Los Angeles, CA 90012
Stanley Mosk Court
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you
should appear at the hearing and state your objections or
file written objections with the court before the hearing.
Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a CONTINGENT
CREDITOR OF THE DECEDENT, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the
later of either (1) four months from the date of first
issuance of letters to a general personal representative,
as defined in section 58 (b) of the California Probate
Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of
the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult
with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE THE FILE KEPT BY THE
COURT. If you are a person interested in the estate, you
may file with the court a Request for Special Notice
(form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as
provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for
Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

A.P.N.: 8314-013-011
The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any
incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above.
The sale will be made, but without covenant or warrant,
expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the
note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust. The total amount
of the unpaid principal balance of the obligation secured

the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

delivered to the undersigned a written request to commence foreclosure, and the undersigned caused a Notice
of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the
county where the real property is located.
NOTICE TO POTENTIAL 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 bidder 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 contacting
the county recorders office or a title insurance 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 this property.
Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to bid
less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at the time
of the sale the opening bid may be less than the total debt.
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 postponed,
and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale
of this property, you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web site http://www.altisource.com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/TrusteeServices/Sales.aspx
using the file number assigned to this case 2011-17114.
Information about postponements that are very short
in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled
sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone
information. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale

cashiers check drawn on a state or national
bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit
union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings association
or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the
California Financial Code and authorized to do
business in California, or other such funds as
may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event
tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee
may withhold the issuance of the Trustees Deed
Upon Sale until funds become available to the
payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The
property offered for sale excludes all funds held
on account by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for
any reason, the successful bidders sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies
paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder
shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential 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.

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

The recent sale of our Claremont home presented some very

unique challenges. Carlos and Pat handled my former home
as if it were their own. They kept me informed,
responded with professionalism and reassurance, and made
sure that as their customers, my ex-husband and I were their
top priority. The house ended up selling for higher than
asking price. I recommend Carlos and Pat Samuelson with
complete confidence and a heart full of gratitude.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER
ESTATE OF LINDA G. HEILPERN
Case No. BP168091
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in
the will or estate, or both, of LINDA G. HEILPERN
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by
Harsimran Heilpern in the Superior Court of California,
County of LOS ANGELES.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that Harsimran Heilpern be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act.
(This authority will allow the personal representative to
take many actions without obtaining court approval. Be-
fore taking certain very important actions, however, the

personal representative will be required to give notice
to interested persons unless they have waived notice or
consented to the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows
good cause why the court should not grant the authority.
A HEARING on the petition will be held on Dec. 7,
2015 at 8:30 AM in Dept. No. 11 located at 111 N. Hill
St., Los Angeles, CA 90012.
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you
should appear at the hearing and state your objections or
file written objections with the court before the hearing.
Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the
court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b)
of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the
date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice
under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult
with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court.
If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file
with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate
assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice
form is available from the court clerk.
