Still accepting awards for Martin,

seven years later
ver the years the COURIER has received

numerous awards for stories, photos, design and advertising published in the
newspaper and website. During my seven years
as publisher, part of those honors has been accepting awards on behalf of Martin Weinberger.
As editor and publisher of the COURIER for 53 years, Martin
touched so many lives, in so many different ways, I am often reminded of his impact on the Claremont community and newspaper industry. Not a week goes by when someone mentions they
knew my father, worked for my father, or in an effort to seek
coverage suggest, Martin would have done this.
In most cases these quotes are followed by a fond personal
story about how he touched other peoples lives. Such was the
case when the California Press Foundation inducted Martin

into the California Newspaper Hall of Fame last week.

What I discovered was this entire other world outside of
Claremont of movers and shakers in the publishing industry
where Martin helped shape policy for the media industry in
California. But just like COURIER readers, the stories were
similar. And it didnt matter what your title was, he treated
everyone with the same enthusiasm. Here are unofficial highlights from his years with the California Newspaper Publishers
Association (CNPA):
He filled the roll as MC or greeter during group gatherings
and would seek out new CNPA members to discuss the history
of the organization.
My parents rarely stayed at the same hotel where a conference was hosted. Publishers liked nice digs, but the room rates
were so high, they would stay at a cheaper hotel nearby.
In board meetings if a publisher looked bored, he would direct questions to that person just like they were in class. This
was especially the case for big city members who Martin said
would get distracted.
The CNPA each year raised money for various scholarships
for students interested in journalism. Martin may not have donated the most, but it came out of his personal checkbook.
The one word that seemed to define my fathers role and actions was activist. Whether he was registering voters in MisMY SIDE OF THE LINE/next page

Dear Editor;
El Roble Physical Education Department would like to acknowledge and give
thanks to our Administration, CUSD board
members, Coates Cyclery, Bakers, Starbucks, Razzle Dazzle, PE Boosters, parents and our students for all their support
in our 2014 Turkey Trot.
Our entire student body participated by
running 16 minutes during their PE classes
and donating canned food items to the
local food pantry. Also making a positive
impression on our students and commitment to our PE program was our amazing
counselors, principal, vice principal, and
board circling the track with our students.
This was our PE departments sixth annual Turkey Trot. Donations collected this
year has tipped over the $6,000 mark to
help purchase physical education equipment that is used daily by our students.
The Turkey Trot fundraiser had a new
twist this year when Mr. Corey Mc
Croskey donated a fixie bike for the raffle. Students who brought in donations
over $20 received raffle tickets for several
items donated by Bakers, Starbucks and
Razzle Dazzle. The grand prize fixie
bike was won by eighth grader Clayton
Scott.
We love our jobs and Thank You for

your support! We appreciate and are fortunate to have facilities which include our
Panther gymnasium, fitness lab, classroom, and swimming pool.
For every student, we strive to motivate
and build confidence, to develop physical

CPUC gets earful from irate Claremont water customers
wo public California Public Utility

Commission (CPUC) hearings at
Taylor Hall were well attended, as
a long line of Claremont residents and
Golden State ratepayers vented their opinions in an attempt to halt the water companys effort for another rate increase.
Members of the Claremont City Council, city staff as

well as representatives from Golden State Water Company and the Office of Ratepayer Advocates, were
among the more than 100 people on December 8 who
participated in each of the afternoon and evening hearings. During the course of those two hearings, 40 people testified before the judge.
Administrative Law Judge Rafael L. Lirag, one of
two judges assigned to the rate case, provided an
overview of the CPUC process before opening the
floor to Golden State Water for testimony regarding
their application.
The company has a fairly aggressive capital addi-
tions request, with over $96 million dedicated to Region 3 during the three-year cycle, explained Keith
Switzer, vice president of regulatory affairs for Golden
State Water Company.
In Claremont, Golden State has planned $20 million
in capital projects with $6 million earmarked for
drilling a new well at the Pomello site and installing a
booster station, as well as treating an existing station to
bring it back into service, he said.
Also included in that application is a new tier structure for residential customersincreasing from three to
four tiers.
One of the things Id like to emphasize is that the
change is not a way to enhance our revenues, explained Mr. Switzer, who was immediately heckled by
the afternoon crowd but continued with his presentation.
In setting the tiers in the past, weve set the tiers in
the same size for all. This time around, we broke it up
into two zones. Here in Claremont, your tier will be set
with San Dimas and San Gabriel. The mountain desert
districts like Barstow, Apple Valley, Morongo Valley,
they will have a different set of tiers based on market

meeting Monday night in Claremont. The meeting was

State Waters proposed rate increases.
consumption. The rate will be the same.

In his address at the 6 p.m. meeting, Mr. Switzer left
off his explanation of the tiered rate structure.
Golden State Water Company began the current ratesetting process in July 2014 when they applied for an
order to decrease water service rates by 0.50 percent in
2016, only to increase rates by 3.21 percent in 2017;
and increase rates again by 3.12 percent in 2018.
Despite the proposed minor decrease in year one,
there is little relief in sight for Claremont residents
whose water bills continue to rise.
We have seen increases in our bills from 60 to 70
percent in just the past five years, City Manager Tony
Ramos told Judge Lirag. It is fundamentally unfair for
residents of Claremont to pay significantly more for
our water service than the ratepayers in surrounding
municipally-involved service areas. I implore you to
analyze this rate application with its impact on ratepayers and take into consideration the concerns of this
community.
This isnt Claremonts first battle with Golden State
Water over its requested rate increases, nor is it the first

Claremont resident Robert Traer addresses administrative law judge Rafael Lirag on Monday evening during
a public meeting held by the California Public Utilities Commission. The evening meeting was the second of
two opportunities for Claremont residents to give the CPUC feedback on proposed water rate increases.
MY SIDE OF THE LINE/continued from previous page
sissippi in the 1960s, coaching an intern on photography techniques, sharing his passion for defending the
First Amendment, standing up to an irate caller, or just
keeping the focus on accurate reporting, he was always
willing to spend time with people in an effort to do the
right thing. Martin Weinberger left a legacy that continues to march with time.
Price increases coming in January
The last time we raised COURIER subscription
prices was in 2007. In an effort to keep the high standards readers are accustomed to, and with production
and printing costs on the rise, the single copy price of
the newspaper will be $1.50. Our subscription price will
be $56 yearly (up $4), $98 for two years (up $6), and
$52 for online only. Senior discounts will still be $5 off.
Given the volume of local content, full website access at no extra charge, I feel this is still an incredible
bargain. I occasionally explain to readers the high cost
of thorough reporting, especially given we generate all
our own content. My goal has been to keep the
COURIER single copy price near the cost of two-thirds
of a cup of coffee.
It was an excellent year for the COURIER, especially
given some of the big Claremont stories like water that
needed continued in-depth coverage. Our website remains very popular with readers, as we strived for a balance of posting news between editions, with publishing
an updated complete story on Fridays.
We could not publish without the continued support
of our readers and advertisers. So as we say goodbye
to 2014, all of us at the COURIER want to wish you
all a happy holidays!

City files eminent domain suit against Golden State
he city of Claremont has taken the

next step in its battle for control of
the local water system and filed an
eminent domain lawsuit against its owner
and operator, Golden State Water Company.
Theres December 7, and then theres December

9, said water acquisition advocate Freeman Allen.
Its a very memorable day in Claremont!
The complaint for eminent domain was filed concurrently with Notice of Lis Pendens - Action in Eminent Domain on Tuesday, December 9 in Los Angeles
Superior Court.
John Holloway, one of several attorneys representing Claremont, said Golden States legal counsel
would not be served until Monday, after which the
water company will have 30 days to respond.
The 43-page document [available online to
COURIER subscribers] includes a categorical list of
properties used and useful in operating and maintaining the Claremont water system, currently owned and
operated by Golden State Water Company.
We only request what is deemed

necessary to operate the system
John Holloway
Attorney representing the
city of Claremont
Expressly excluded from the list, but not limited to,

are transportation vehicles, personnel or employee
contracts, temporary cash investments, investments in
associated companies or other investments as well as
cash on hand.
Although, given residents testimonies at the recent
CPUC hearings, many Claremont residents might like
the city to reconsider the later.
The citys lawsuit also includes water rights. Agreeing on the value of these rights will likely be the most
hotly contested issue between the parties in the future.
We only request what is deemed necessary to operate the system, explained Mr. Holloway.
By 71 percent, Claremont registered voters approved financing for the citys acquisition of the water
system through revenue bonds. Three weeks later, the
Claremont City Council unanimously adopted two
Resolutions of Necessity determining that acquisition
of the Claremont water system by the city of Claremont was in the public interest.
As the eminent domain court proceedings move
forward, a judge will rule on the legality of the acquisition and a jury will determine the value of the system.
Golden State Water Company spokesperson Julie
Hooper said that although company officials had not
yet seen the lawsuit, the legal process will not distract Golden State Water from providing residents
with reliable drinking water and dedicated customer
service.

CPUC PUBLICHEARING/continued from the previous page
time the city and its residents have rallied against it.
In July 2011, Golden State filed a rate
case application with the CPUC, holding
a public hearing at Taylor Hall that same
December with Judge Richard Smith
hearing five hours of testimony from
100 disgruntled Claremont customers.
Despite ratepayers outrage, the CPUC
granted Golden State the increases they
sought for 2013-2015, including a 15.6
percent in 2013 with smaller increases of
2.7 percent in 2014 and 1.8 percent in
2015 in just under two years.
Many residents have grown disillusioned with the CPUC and are now questioning the commissions ability to
regulate privately-owned utilities to ensure rates are reasonable for customers.
The PUC has truly failed in their efforts and their mission statement to us,
the consumers, said Claremont resident
Bill Buehler. We came here three years
ago and went through the same thing and
got an immense raise in our water rates.
Please do a little more homework than

the last judge.
The Office of Ratepayer Advocates,
an independent arm of the CPUC, created by the legislature to represent the interests of all utility customers throughout
the state, will review the application and
is expected to release their recommendations in March 2015.
The Administrative Law Judges assigned to the case will submit a draft decision to Commissioner Michael Picker,
who is expected to make a final decision
within the next 18 months, however, the
timeline is unclear.
Those unable to attend the public hearing may still file a formal protest with the
CPUC by submitting written comments,

A popular Claremont hotel was the
victim of intended arson. According to
Lieutenant Mike Ciszek, the unknown
suspect attempted to set fire to the vacant portion of the DoubleTree Hotel
by pushing nearly a dozen pieces of
newspaper through two, eight-foot double doors and setting it ablaze. Its unknown when the fire started, however,
there was very little property damage
and the cost of damage has not been determined.

Evey Canyon hikers beware: thieves
have struck again. A purse left on the
floorboard of a locked vehicle parked at
the canyons entrance was appealing to
one thief, who used an unknown object
to smash the cars window and steal it.
Between 9:50 a.m. and 11:30 a.m., the

female victim went hiking with a friend
and when she returned to her Toyota
Prius, discovered the car had been broken into and her purse stolen. The suspect fled in an unknown direction.

A womans life was threatened after
thugs showed up to collect over
$20,000 on an alleged business deal involving her husband. According to Lt.
Ciszek, the female victim was at work
around 2 p.m. when two suspects arrived at the business located on the
1400 block of Andrew Way, demanding
to know the whereabouts of her husband. One of the suspects, with his

An out-of-town musician with a local
gig was arrested for driving under the
influence following his set. Dale Everingham, 50, was driving near Butte and
Towne Avenue around 2 a.m. when officers stopped him due to an inoperable
taillight on his Porsche. The Oakland
resident told police he was invited
down to play at the Hi-Brow and serve
the community. Further investigation
revealed Mr. Everingham had been
drinking and was subjected to a sobriety test that he tried to sabotage by
placing his tongue into the Breathalyzer
straw. He was booked and later released
on $5,000 bail.

Claremont officers came to the rescue of two drinkers who were having
one heck of a night in the City of Trees.

San Francisco resident Benjamin Birenbaum, 22, and San Dimas resident Elizabeth Rietzell, 23, first encountered
police when they were refused service
at Eureka Burger because staff suspected they were too intoxicated. Officers spoke with the duo, who agreed to
call a taxi before officers left the scene.
A short time later, Ms. Rietzell called 91-1 stating that they were on foot and
couldnt find her car. She told police it
was parked somewhere in the area of
Indian Hill and Second Street before
hanging up. Moments later, Mr. Birenbaum called 9-1-1 again and advised
the same information. Officers responded and questioned the two, who
told police theyd cancelled the taxi
after they became worried about the
cars location. Both suspects were arrested for public intoxication, booked
and later released.

EDUCATION
San Antonio provides model education, builds sense of community
he Lions have something to roar

about, because San Antonio High
School has been named a Model
Continuation School.
In order to nab the honorwhich is awarded by the

California Department of Education in partnership with
the California Continued Education Associationthe
school submitted an application detailing the schools
strengths. These, according to Principal Sean Delgado,
include the widespread use of technology, nurturing
community partnerships and warm relationships between
students and staff.
Once the board determined that the Claremont continuation school had a strong case, they paid a visit to the
campus on November 13.
At the end of the visit, they call all stakeholders together and tell the group yea or nay, Mr. Delgado said.
In our case, they told us, Yea!
The San Antonio community was delighted.
The big reason why is it validates the hard work of a
lot of peoplethe hard work of our teachers, who go
above and beyond, of the kids who come here and transform themselves educationally and also parents, he said.
Mr. Delgado says kudos are also due to groups like
the Rotary Club of Claremont, which provides scholarships to San Antonio students as well as grants for school
projects like the in-process construction of an on-campus
student store.
The schools relationship with the Claremont Educational Foundation has also been extremely fruitful. When
Mr. Delgado was placed at the helm of San Antonio last
year, he set himself a goal: within three years, he would
see that an iPad was placed in the hands of every student.
Thanks to the support of the CEF, that has already happened, with students using tablets for learning and to create media-rich presentations.
Another beneficial community partnership is that between San Antonio and the Claremont Colleges, he said.
The colleges yield many volunteers eager to help with
the continuation schools Plant Justice program, who
help guide students in their Food Justice Program, where
students learn about the importance of healthy, locallysourced food by tending a large garden.
Mr. Delgado is most proud of the on-campus relationships, something that definitely helped the school
garner the Model Continuation School title.
Holy cow, these kids love their school, he said.
They love their teacherstheyd throw themselves
under a bus for these people. Theres a tremendous
amount of connection and warmth.
And the enthusiasm of the teachers is palpable.
In some districts, teachers are placed at the continuation school, Mr. Delgado said. But this staff chose to
be here. They chose to work with this population. They
let the students know, I want to be here. I want to love
you and help you thrive.
There is, of course, a stigma attached to continuation
schools. Many students are dismayed when they learn
they must trade Claremont High School and other mainstream environments for San Antonio in order to graduate. They often expect to see a sub-par education among
badly-behaved kids.
Nothing could be further from the truth, Mr. Delgado
said.
Our students are pumped. They look forward to seeing this level of teacher support, he said. When they
need help, they dont have to compete with 35 other students. Theyre learning like they never have before, and
theyre learning in different ways.
This includes an increasing level of Linked Learning,
in which students learn subject matter across the curriculum, often in hands-on ways that show how education applies to success in the real world.
There have been two distinct focuses this year when it
comes to achieving school excellence. One is the educational component, with San Antonio teachers working
with district staff to implement the Common Core and to

find iPad apps that help them achieve their goals. The
other is a continued emphasis on school spirit.
From the start, Mr. Delgado has said that he wants San
Antonio students to come to school not just for fear they
wont graduate but because it offers the same kind of camaraderie and many of the extra-curricular activities
youd find at any high school. Last year, he reinstituted
an ASB class and had a mascot contest. The Lions it was,
and students have already made various shirts showing
their Lions pride.
The school recently had a contest, asking students to
find the most inspiring quote possible to emblazon on a
T-shirt. The winning pick was words of wisdom by celebrated US General Douglas MacArthur. A true leader
has the confidence to stand alone, the courage to make
tough decisions, and the compassion to listen to the needs
of others.
The students also had a real grad night, which took
place at Disneyland. Mr. Delgado was delighted to learn
that even though he wasnt there, the students didnt take
the opportunity to scatter to the winds. Instead, they
opted to enjoy the Magic Kingdom together as a class
and as a team.
Thats what San Antonio is about, a high-quality education and a lot of school spirit.
As soon as kids come here, they say, Oh my gosh,
the stereotypes were so untrue, Mr. Delgado said.
Some kids stay at San Antonio through their senior
graduation and others, often with a nudge from Mr. Delgado and his staff, return to Claremont High. For instance, a kid that wants to play football needs to return to
CHS once his credits are up-to-par because that is where
the Wolfpack resides.
Either way, the students say their experience at San
Antonio has been unforgettable.
Every kid pines for the special place they found while
they are here, Mr. Delgado said.

Lights in a dark sky

The Light Shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not
overcome it John 1: 5
y first Christmas as a
single father was not
a bright one from
my point of view. I was living
in a studio apartment in Riverside at the time, and had very
little to speak of in the way of
income. I felt very alone and
isolated. In spite of these circumstances, it was in my heart
to give my daughters, who
were 9, 8 and 4 at the time, the
very best Christmas I could.
It started with the cheapest Charlie
Brown Christmas tree I could find,
and ornaments made from pine cones
we found on the grounds of my apartment complex. We decorated my studio
apartment with paper chains and
snowflakes, and we planned to have
canned Raviolis and Baby Cokes for
Christmas dinner.
When Christmas Day arrived, I was

Inter-Faithfully SPEAKING
to have the girls in the afternoon and
evening, so they could spend the morning with their mother. I spent Christmas
Eve and that morning with my folks
and left from there to pick up the girls
to take them back to my place.
The few gifts they were to receive
from me were not yet under the little
tree when we arrived so, in order to
maintain a bit of Christmas magic, I
asked them to wait, as I helped Santa,
in the only room with a door that separated it from the rest of the house, the
bathroom. As they waited, I gave them
a big can of holiday popcorn and bottles of Coca-Cola for them to enjoy as I
finished setting things up for our
Christmas together.
At the time, I was in one of the lowest points of my life and was trying to
find my way out of that dark place. I
saw only my failures as a father and I
thought my children deserved better
than what I was giving them. While
they waited in the bathroom for their
Christmas with me to begin, the dark
thoughts of self-pity flooded over me. I

asked myselfor was it really a
prayerwould I ever know real joy
again?
Little did I know that my prayer
would be answered sooner than I
thought. When all was ready, I opened
the door of the bathroom and my sorrow turned to joy; for there were my
three little girls sitting in the empty bath
tub with popcorn everywhere, smiling
and laughing like this was greatest
Christmas adventure they had ever had.
I mean, how many times do you get to
sit in a bathtub and eat popcorn?
My girls were like three bright stars
shining in my very dark sky. I sat on the
toilet seat and enjoyed the popcorn with
them, joining in their delight. It turned
out to be perfect for all of us; just what
the four of us wanted for Christmas.
As Christmas comes each year, God
reminds me of that day, and I smile,
and I think about when he first came to
us according to my Christian understanding. We could say that circum-
Making it Merry!

veryone thinks Santas job is

close-to-impossible; all those
houses, chimneys and cookies in
just one night. Its a globe-trotting and
gastronomic feat and he deserves the veneration we accord him (carols, lighted
plastic look-alikes, tree-toppers, movies
and Bass and Rankin stop-action animation).
But really, when you think about the work load, its
the elves who warrant our deepest respect. The sheer
enormity of their undertakingtoys for boys and
girls of all ages and predilections, and the learning
curvetheyve gone from hammering out simple
wooden boats and dolls to the circuitry required for
an Iron Man 3 motorized hand glove. They work 364
days of the year. I imagine Santa gives them December 25 to celebrate with their families and then, on
December 26, they crank-up the whole enterprise
again.
I am also making many of my gifts this year but, as
of writing this column, I still havent lifted a glue
gun! I did make some homemade cashew brittle right
after Thanksgiving but I ate a lot of that and now I
have to make more.
I get these grand ideas, usually in July, and usually
from a magazine or a craft fair. I cut them out or take
pictures with my phone and I imagine friends and relatives oohing and aahing over my handiwork. I
gather the suppliesin years past, this has involved
picking up pine cones from parks and gutters (p.s. I
would never go on your lawn), recycling dozens of
plastic bags (a crochet project) and repurposing used
bottle caps (jewelry!).
Without giving too much away, this years gifts involve sharp tools and the kind of adhesive that can
leave you stuck to a piece of ceramic tile (thats never

happened to me, but I have added ridges to my fingerprints with cyanoacrylateotherwise known as
Super Glue).
There will be drilling, and not the kind that is approved by the American Dental Association. The cat
will not be amused as metal is pierced. Ill be wearing
safety glasses. And probably rubber gloves because,
once again, sticky stuff is also involved. And in the
end, a lot of glassware and china that might otherwise
have ended-up in a landfill will sparkle with new purpose.
Its almost not fair to have so much fun amassing
gifts. While others are searching for parking spots
and sleeping on sidewalks to garner a $19.99 television or $100 laptop, I am humming along to Christmas carols and sipping a frothy hot cocoa while
wielding my new drill.
My husband will occasionally knock on the door to
make sure I am not overcome by fumes or seriously
considering giving up my day job to follow a merry
band of crafters from fair to fair (there are an alarming number of blogs with instructions on just how to

But for me, its the joy most recipients exhibit
when they unwrap one of my creations and exclaim,
sometimes hesitantly, I love it! I then have to explain what it actually is but they usually still like it. It
provides the happiest of holidays for me. I wish you
and your families the same.
stances for His birth were not ideal by

any meansa tyrannical government, a
census, a stable, a mangerpretty
bleak. But when shepherds and magi
peeked in on the babe, who was called
Jesus, what greeted them was a light
that shone in the darkness, like a star in
a dark sky bringing tidings of great joy,
which shall be for all people. Even, one
day, bringing great joy to a hopeless
single father who would find his way
out of the dark and back into the light,
serving him as a minister.
Lights that shine in dark places are a
prominent theme for many faith communities during the holiday season.
Light is hope, joy and love. As it was
given to me by my three daughters at a
Christmas long ago, hope joy and love
is something that we can give to each
other freely. Who knows, it may be just
what they have wanted in the first place.
Blessings on you all this holiday season.

[Editors note: We had a speech in 1933,

then another in 2014 but somewhere between things got muddy. It was a misquote, then an incorrect correction to the
misquote and now some correct corrections to the double misquote. Let me simplify it by saying, We really flubbed this
one up. Apologies to Ambassador
Marks and to our readers. As always,
thanks for keeping us on our toes but,
mostly, thank you for reading. KD]
Dear Editor:
In his December 5 letter, Claremont
resident Don Fisher corrects the
COURIERs attribution of the famous
nothing to fear but fear itself to John F.
Kennedy, noting that Ambassador Edward Marks, speaking at Temple Beth
Israel last month, had correctly attributed
it to Winston Churchill.
I wasnt there, so I dont know
whether the Ambassador had it right or
not, but the quote (the only thing we
have to fear is...fear itself) is from
Franklin Delano Roosevelts First Inaugural Address on March 4, 1933. This
being Claremont, Im sure others will
write on this as well. This being Claremont, its important to get it right.
John Norvell
Claremont
Dear Editor:
Don Fisher is correct (A misquote,December 5) that it was not John
F. Kennedy who said that we have nothing to fear but fear itself. He is not correct, though, in attributing those words
to Winston Churchill.
Instead, we owe that memorable turn
of phrase to President Franklin Delano
Roosevelt, who uttered them at the beginning of his First Inaugural Address on
March 4, 1933. This great Nation will
endure as it has endured, will revive and
will prosper, he said on that occasion.
So, first of all, let me assert my firm belief that the only thing we have to fear is
fear itselfnameless, unreasoning, unjustified terror which paralyzes needed
efforts to convert retreat into advance. In
every dark hour of our national life a
leadership of frankness and vigor has
met with that understanding and support
of the people themselves which is essential to victory.
Susan McWilliams Barndt
Claremont
Dear Editor:
It was Franklin Roosevelt who said in
his first inaugural address, The only
thing we have to fear is fear itself. He
swiped it from Francis Bacon, who, 310
years earlier, wrote, Nothing is terrible
except fear itself.
Harrison Stephens
Claremont
Dear Editor:
As a member of the steering committee of the Brenda Rosenfeld Shabbat
Scholars Series at Temple Beth Israel, I
would like to set the record straight regarding the quote referenced by Ambassador Edward Marks during his recent
talk.
Ambassador Marks correctly attributed the quote, The only thing we have
to fear is fear itself, to Franklin Delano
Roosevelt. It was not JFK as your reporter noted, nor Winston Churchill as
READERS COMMENTS
was suggested in last weeks letter to the

editor. This now famous phrase was part
of FDRs First Inaugural Address given
on March 4,1933.
Nancy Ambrose
Claremont
Dear Editor:
Look. Im generally a tolerant guy,
usually willing to overlook any number
of foibles and just plain errors, but the
madness has to stop!
First, Sarah Torribio, in a November
28 article about a lecture by former ambassador Edward Marks at Temple Beth
Israel, tells us, quoting the speaker, that
there is little hope for a peaceable twostate solution between Israel and Pakistan.
I am willing to accept that this is technically true though, I suspect, it has less
to do with politics than with the fact that
the countries are over 2000 miles apart.
Then Ms. Torribio attributes the statement that, There is nothing to fear but
fear itself to John F. Kennedy. This is
not true, technically or otherwise, unless
Ich bin ein Berliner has been retranslated. (The quote is actually, The only
thing we have to fear is...fear itself but,
as I said, Im generally not a quibbler.)
Finally, Don Fisher writes a letter,
published the following week, to correct
the record, at least as to the quote. He
tells us he was at the lecture and clearly
heard Ambassador Marks attribute the
statement correctly in Mr. Fishers opinion, to Winston Churchill? What? Really? Are you kidding? People, we can
do better than this. The quote is not from
JFK or Churchill (nor is it from Shakespeare, Mark Twain, Will Rogers or
Benjamin Franklin, though these are always good guesses and might earn you
at least partial credit on a test even if
youre wrong). No, the quote is from
Franklin Delano Roosevelt at his first Inaugural on March 4, 1933.
You may have heard of him: Great
Depression, World War II, New Deal,
elected president four times, has his picture on the dime. Trust me, Im not making this stuff up. Watch it on YouTube if
it will make you feel better. This used to
be called common knowledge but is, apparently, no longer. I suppose, as Ronald
Reagan (or was it Will Rogers?) liked to
say, Trust but verify.
The good news is that there will a
retest next week and all the old scores
will be thrown out. I trust everyone will
do better.

Dear Editor:
I was surprised and disappointed to
learn that there are at least four individuals (Don Fisher, Ambassador Marks, the
author of your article, and the person
who printed Mr. Fishers letter) that did
not know that the very well known statement all we have to fear is fear itself
was the high point of Franklin D. Roosevelts first Inaugural Address delivered
in 1933. It is arguably his most famous
and quoted statement.
For those of you who werent around
in 1933 he was referring to fear in the
hearts of the American people, caused
by the Depression, that led them to distrust not only the government but the
banks and other businesses that were
keys to the recovery of our economy.
Owen Keavney
Claremont
Dear Editor:
In the Readers Comments for December 5, a letter mentioned a misquote,
but the misquote was misquoted! The
quotation There is nothing to fear but
fear itself is actually The only thing
we have to fear is fear itself, and it was
spoken by Franklin Delano Roosevelt in
his First Inaugural Address on March 4,
1933. Neither Kennedy nor Churchill is
the source of this quotation.
Tim Hite
La Verne
Dear Editor:
With all due respect to my friend Ambassador Ed Marks, and to Don Fishers
letter in the December 5 edition of the
COURIER, the true source of the famous quote the only thing we have
to fear is fear itself is neither Winston Churchill nor John F. Kennedy. The
famous statement came from first Inaugural Address by Franklin Delano Roosevelt on March 4, 1933, according to
Samuel Rosenman, ed., The Public Papers of Franklin Delano Roosevelt,
Volume 2: The Year of Crisis, 1933
(New York, Random House, 1938) pp.
11-16.
Adar Belinkoff
Claremont
Dear Editor:
Contrary to a recent article and a recent letter, The only thing we have to
fear is fear itself is correctly attributable neither to John F. Kennedy nor to
Winston Churchill, but to Franklin
Roosevelt in his First Inaugural.
James Van Cleve
Claremont
Dear Editor:
COURIER reporter, Ambassador
Marks and Mr. Fisher are incorrect
about the famed origin. PM Winston
Churchill is said to be the second-most
(and incorrect) guess.
Franklin Delano Roosevelts (first)
inaugural speech on March 4, 1933
contains the line, So, first of all, let me
assert my firm belief that the only thing
we have to fear is fear itselfnameless,
unreasoning, unjustified terror which
paralyzes needed efforts to convert retreat into advance."
An Internet search easily reveals the
full speech and recorded audio/video of
the FDR delivery. The line is near the
speechs beginning.

Turkey trot a success

Dear Editor:
The members of the Claremont Sunrise
Rotary want to thank all who participated
in our seventh Annual Turkey Trot. It was
another huge success with nearly 2,300
runners and picture-perfect weather. It
was a great start to the Thanksgiving
weekend!
We couldnt have done it without the
help of over 100 volunteers and Rotarians
and their family members. It was great to
see members of many of the different
teams and players that our Claremont
Youth Sports Scholarships (CYSS) program support, help make our day safe and
successful.
Leo Bister has, again, given many voluntary hours this year sharing his valuable
experience in the area of running events.
We also thank the city of Claremont
and, in particular, Loretta Mustafa, Maria
Tipping and DeLisa Bryant in the engineering department. And, thanks to Lori
Davenport and all of her colleagues in the
Claremont Police Department for helping
to make the Turkey Trot one of the safest
runs in California.
READERS COMMENTS
When we started this Turkey Trot, the

economy was in the midst of a financial
meltdown. Claremont Sunrise Rotary
members went out into the community
and still found willing sponsors to support
our cause. Many of those sponsors have
continued to support us and new ones
have joined us to increase our budget over
previous years.
Every dollar raised goes directly to our
support of the many projects and programs that Claremont Sunrise Rotary and
Rotary International support. We will
spend over $15,000 this year on the
CYSS fund that started with this run
seven years ago and on other community
youth sports scholarships and activities.
Since our inception we have granted over
1,000 scholarships to local teams and athletes to pay for registration fees. Including this years effort, we have raised over
$100,000 in total funding of youth sports
and academic scholarships within our
community.
Claremont Sunrise Rotary is also part
of a world community. We provide books

to a girls school in Tanzania, remove land
mines in Cambodia, and install water
tanks in Africa. And, Rotary International
is fast closing in on the complete eradication of polio from the world.
The Turkey Trot is now a personal and
family tradition in Claremont which continues to be enjoyed by so many and gives
back so much to our community.

Fury over Ferguson
Dear Editor:
Douglas Lyon and Hayden Lening
(COURIER, December 5) fail to understand the basic point of the Ferguson
protests.
Mr. Lening says Three separate agencies investigate this shooting and clear Officer... There has, in fact, been only one
legal venue: the grand jury proceedings.
Moreover, the officer could not be

cleared therethat can only happen by
a not guilty verdict at a trial and a grand
jury proceeding is not a trial. There is no
judge to rule on matters of law and there
is no opposing attorney to contest witnesses and testimony.
A grand jury is completely a prosecutors show and the aim is to establish
probable cause that a crime has been committed so that a trial can be arranged. This
particular prosecutor, known in advance
to be a notorious police advocate (and
who refused to recuse himself), did everything he could to make sure that no charge
was brought against Wilson: he perverted
the point of grand jury hearings by acting
as the officers defense attorney.
Mssrs. Lyon and Lening have been
conned exactly as the prosecutor conned
the grand jury.
Note: Mr. Lening thinks it cute to refer
to progressives as regressives. But that is
a fools gameit can easily be turned on
the perpetrator as in We shall no doubt
be hearing more from Mr. Lemming.

OBITUARIES
Wife, mother, church volunteer, world traveler

Longtime Claremont resident Shirley
Marguerite Stiles died peacefully in her
sleep at home on Sunday, December 7.
She was 86.
Shirley Briggs was born in Detroit,
Michigan on April 29, 1928. She met her
husband-to-be, Dr. Gerald Stiles, at a
summer church service on the lawn in
Moncton, New Brunswick Canada. Dr.
and Mrs. Stiles lived in Canada for a few
years before moving to Pomona in 1964,
after Dr. Stiles accepted a surgical position with Pomona Valley Hospital. Not
long after, the Stiles family settled in
Claremont where they raised their children, which includes twin daughters,
Heather and Leslie, and a son, Michael.
Mrs. Stiles was a loving wife and
mother and took great joy in raising her
family. She volunteered in her church,
Pilgrim Congregational, where she was

involved in childrens Sunday services,

and was an officer in the Assistance
League of Pomona Valley and active
with the Pomona Valley Hospital Auxiliary until her husbands retirement in the
mid-1980s.
In addition to her dedication to family
and church, Mrs. Stiles was an avid
bridge player, theater buff and enjoyed
lifelong friendships, even participating in
the Birthday Club, a group of girlfriends who gathered each month for
lunch to celebrate birthdays.
Mrs. Stiles cherished traveling with
her husband. One particular excursion
was captured in a photograph of the couple playfully riding donkeys through
Greece, their daughter shared.
Some of our favorite trips were to

Alf Museum scientist names
oldest horned dinosaur from
North America
A fossil skull small enough to fit in the palm of
your hand represents the oldest species of horned dinosaur named from North America. The discovery,
announced by a multi-institution team including the
Raymond M. Alf Museum of Paleontology at The
Webb Schools, is 40 million years older than the
iconic Triceratops.
The new dinosaur is named Aquilops Americanus,
meaning American eagle face. The name refers to
the hook-like beak at the front of the skull, used to
snip plants during feeding. It lived around 108 million
years ago, in what is now southern Montana.
Aquilops (pronounced uh-QUILL-ops) was about
the size of a large crow, weighing around 3.5 pounds
with his wife of 62 years. We saw the

world,
Mrs. Stiles is survived by her husband,
Gerald; by her daughters Heather
Boehner (Bill) and Leslie Baker (Joe);
and by her son, Michael (Stephanie). She
is also survived by six grandchildren,
Jeremiah and Patrick Boehner; Bethany
and Andrew Baker; and Genevieve and
Johnson Stiles; and by one great-grandson, Lincoln Broughton.
A viewing was held on Thursday, December 11 at Todd Memorial Chapel in
Pomona.
Memorial services for Mrs. Stiles will
take place Friday, December 12 at 10
a.m. at Pilgrim Congregational Church,
600 N. Garey Ave., Pomona, followed
by a graveside service at 1 p.m. at Oak
Park Cemetery, 410 Sycamore Ave.,
Claremont.
and measuring around two feet in total length. It belongs to a group called ceratopsians, better known as
horned dinosaurs.
Aquilops is the first fossil to show what the earliest horned dinosaurs in North America looked like,
said paleontologist Andrew Farke, Augustyn Family
Curator at the Alf Museum and lead author on the scientific study. Scattered teeth and bones from around
the same time showed us that these animals were
here, but not much else was known.
The fossils of Aquilops, including a partial skull
and lower jaw, was found on an expedition led by
Richard Cifelli, curator of vertebrate paleontology at
the Sam Noble Oklahoma Museum of Natural History, Norman, Oklahoma, and the original fossil is
housed there.
The Alf Museum is located at 1175 W. Base Line
Rd. on the Webb Schools campus. Hours are Monday
through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Satuday
from 1 to 4 p.m. Admission is $6 per person, four
years old and under for free. Cash and checks only.

John Frampton
11
OBITUARIES
Loving husband, father and friend

John Philip Frampton died peacefully at the age of 90, on December 3,
2014, with his family by his side.
John was born June 8, 1924 in Inglewood, California to Charlie and Grace
Frampton, and spent his childhood in
Pomona with his beloved siblings,
Keith, Mary Ann, Gail and Gary.
He attended Pomona High School
and, in 1949, went on to graduate
fromthe University of Notre Dame,
where he studied sociology and was a
member of Frank Leahys 1947 National championship football team.
We will always think of our own
#36 when we watch the Irish play,win
or lose, his family shared.
Mr. Frampton was a veteran with the
US Navy having served during World
War II in the Naval Air Corp. He was
training to be a fighter pilot when the
war ended, and achieved his aviator
wings and rank of Lieutenant JG.
After graduating from Notre Dame,
Mr. Frampton began his football coaching career in Pueblo, Colorado, where
his team won a state championship. It
was there that he met and married the
love of his life, Suzanne Felible. They
moved back to California in the early
1950s, settling in Pomona where John
coachedat Loyola, Pomona Catholic
and Bishop Amat High Schools. He developed and nurtured many life-long
friendships with the young men he
mentored and with his fellow coaches.
Mr. Frampton followed coaching with
successful careers in insurance and
commercial real estate.
Pat DiCarlo, a 1955 Pomona
Catholic High School graduate, played
football for Mr. Frampton when the
coach first arrived at the school in
1952. With just 400 students, and less
than 200 boys, building a winning football program would have been daunting
even for a well-seasoned coach.
The first year we just worked to get
into a league. But his second year of
coaching, the team went undefeated

until the finals in CIF, Mr. DiCarlo
said. He was a tremendous teacher, not
only in football, but in character-building. He made a lasting impression on
all his players.
Mr. Frampton was modest and didnt
offer help to gain attention or reward,
instead gave quiet counsel to Mr. DiCarlo after the death of his own father
when he was 18 years old.
John was my surrogate dad, Mr.
DiCarlo shared. I had nowhere to stay
after my dad died, I was homeless. The
only people who knew were my high
school sweetheart, whos now my wife
of 58 years, and John. And he just
helped me out. He never talked about it
to anyone.
In addition to going above and beyond as a football coach, Mr. Frampton
was always very proud of his five children and attended nearly every extracurricular activity they participated in.
How he found the time to do that with
five active kids would bring a normal
person to his knees, but John seemed to
thrive on it, the family shared. His four
daughters all graduated from Claremont

High School, while his son, Michael,
attended Damien.
As a patron of the arts, Mr. Frampton
loved to sing and was a member of the
choir at Our Lady of the Assumption.
One of the highlights of his life was
singing with the choir for the Pope at the
Vatican. He enjoyed attending the theater, especially ballet, and never missed
an Oscar-nominated film. John and
Suzanne loved to travel and especially
enjoyed their trips to the Holy Land,
Medjugorje, Italy, Alaska, Boston, Calgary, Cancun, Colorado and Maui.
Mr. Frampton had an insatiable appetite for just about everything outdoors. Many wonderful family
vacations were spent in the Sierras skiing, fly fishing, hiking and camping. He
was also an avid road bike enthusiast
and could be found searching for big
hills and smooth pavement throughout
California.
Mr. Frampton participated in the
Hawaii Ironman Triathlon in 1981,
winning first place in the 56-60 year
old age group, but he didnt always
win. A few months later, Mr. Frampton
placed last in the Catalina marathon,
but was said to be thrilled to have finished another race. He rarely uttered the
word no when offered a chance for a
challenge, and did not like to take no
for an answer when he was the one suggesting an arduous trail to hike, ocean
swim or snorkel, or pondering a ski run
to conquer.
Mr. Frampton was a devout follower
of the Roman Catholic faith and shared
his devotion as a Eucharist minister and
as a youth religious education teacher at
St. Josephs and St. Anthonys in Upland
and at Our Lady of the Assumption in
Claremont. He was an avid book collector and reader of all things religious and
absolutely loved sharing stories about
the Blessed Mother and the Saints.
Johnwore his big heart on his sleeve
and always greeted you with a smile

that made you feel as though you were
the only one in the room, family shared.
Its no wonder that each of his 14
grandchildren thoroughly believed they
were his favorite. Johnwas a huge part
of the lives of his manynephews and
nieces, whom he loved dearly. Uncle
John was always up for a game and for
any kind of fun or a quiet heart-to-heart
talk. He was there for whatever was
needed.
Mr. DiCarlo, who now lives in Newport Beach with his wife, enjoyed more
than 50 years of friendship with Mr.
Frampton and the couples often took
scuba diving trips together.
I had the great honor of becoming
his friend after I graduated, Mr. DiCarlo shared. Theres so much to say
about John. He was an extraordinary
man. They broke the mold when he
was born.
Mr. Frampton is survived by
Suzanne, his extraordinary wife of 64
years; daughters Christine and her husband Orlando Mistretta of Upland; Lisa
Baumann of Seal Beach; Karen Terveer
of Ventura; Judy and her husband Larry
Gonzalez of Trabuco Canyon; and his
son, Michael and his wife Kim of Rexford, Montana. He is also survived by
14 adoring grandchildren and one
great-grandchild. He also leaves behind
his best friend and brother Gail and his
sister-in-law, Betty, of Bishop, California; sisters-in-law Carol Frampton of
Hawaii and Beverly Jahn of Colorado;
as well as many nieces and nephews in
Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawaii
and Oregon.
A viewing will be held on Tuesday,
December 16 from 4 to 6:30 p.m. followed by the Rosary at Todd Memorial
Chapel in Pomona. A Funeral Mass will
be held on Wednesday, December 17 at

Upland, with reception to follow.

OBITUARIES
Environmental policy organizer, lobbyist

Dina Louise Biscotti died Tuesday,
December 9 at her home in Davis, California, due to a rare and aggressive
form of uterine cancer. After receiving
a diagnosis of leiomyosarcoma on her
41st birthday, Ms. Biscotti fought this
painful disease courageously and with
an incredible amount of peace and acceptance, her family expressed.
Dina Biscotti was born in Chicago,
Illinois, spent her early childhood in St.
Louis, Missouri, then moved to southern California with her family at the
age of seven. She graduated from
Claremont High School in 1991, received a bachelors in sociology from
the University of California, San Diego
in 1996, and her PhD in sociology from
UC Davis in 2010.
For the past year and a half, Ms. Bis-
cotti lobbied for climate change and

green jobs as a California Policy Organizer with the BlueGreen Alliance.
Prior to that, she was a Postdoctoral
Scholar at the UC Davis Energy Efficiency Center and a lecturer at UC
Davis. A resident of Davis for 14 years,
Ms. Biscotti was known and loved on
and off campus. She served on the
board of directors at the Davis Food
Co-op from 2010 to 2013 and was an
active member of Lutheran Church of
the Incarnation.
Dina is survived by her father Dr.
Louis Biscotti of Claremont; by her
mother, Shirley Biscotti and her partner
Donald Stillman of Fairfield, California; by her sister Bridget Biscotti
Bradley and brother-in-law Kirk
Bradley of Menlo Park, California; by
her brother Michael Biscotti of San

Diego; and by her nephew Keegan and
niece Grace, who will be born in January. Ms. Biscotti is also survived by her
current partner Zane Starkewolf; her
former husband Siva Gunda, whom she
separated from in 2012; and many close
friends.
Dina will be remembered for her
generosity of spirit, her devotion to
family and friends, and for her tenacity
in fighting for what she believed in, her
family remarked.
The funeral was held Wednesday,

District and Arboretum. A Celebration
of Life will be held Saturday, December 13 at 1 p.m. at the Davis Community Church, 412 C Street, in Davis,
California. A reception will follow.
Sophie Williams
Nurse, mother, advocate for the developmentally disabled
Claremont Manor resident Sophie
Williams died on November 13, 2014 at
age 93.
Born Sophie Lucille Kurowski in
1921 in Chicago, Illinois, she was the
oldest of two children born to Roman
and Stella Kurowski, both immigrants
from Poland. Throughout the Great Depression, the family lived in a small onebedroom apartment behind Roman
Kurowskis shoe store in the Jefferson
Park neighborhood.
Mrs. Williams graduated from Carl
Schurz High School in Chicago in 1939
and then attended Cook County School
of Nursing from which she graduated in
1943. She worked at Cook County Hospital as a ward instructor for one year be-
fore joining the U.S. Army Nurse Corps

in 1944. Mrs. Williams served as an
army nurse stationed on the island of
Okinawa from 1944 to 1946.
Mrs. Williams military service
marked a profound turning point for the
girl from Jefferson Park Chicago. Having fallen in love with the west coast
when shipping out to the Pacific, Mrs.
Williams returned to the San Francisco
Bay area following her discharge from
the army in 1946 and enrolled at the
University of California, Berkeley on the
GI Bill. There, she earned a bachelor of
science degree and a teaching credential
in 1948. She then took her first job as an
instructor of nursing at Mount Zion Hospital in San Francisco.
It was during this time that Mrs.

Williams met and married her beloved
husband of 56 years, Edwin Williams,
an engineer and fellow UC Berkeley
graduate. Their courtship included international folk dancing and outings with
the Berkeley Hiking Club. The couple
lived in San Francisco until the birth of
their second child, which prompted a
move to the suburban community of
Burlingame.
In 1960, the family, which now included four children, relocated to southern California when Mr. Williams took a
job as a professor of mechanical engineering at the California Polytechnic
State University (Cal Poly) in Pomona.
The family settled in the community of
Covina, where they remained for 33
years.
Mrs. Williams left the nursing profession and became a full-time mother to
her four children. She was a tireless advocate for her developmentally disabled
second child, Vernon Williams, and devoted herself to seeking out, and in
many cases creating, the resources
needed for his educational and vocational development. Not content to advocate on behalf of her child alone, Mrs.
Williams worked on behalf of all children with special education needs in the
community.
To this end, Mrs. Williams helped to
found the California Advocates for Neurologically Handicapped Children
(CANHC), set up a scholarship fund for
developmentally disabled high school
graduates within the Charter Oak Scholarship Foundation and assisted in establishing a recreational bowling league for
developmentally disabled adults. All of
these institutions still exist today.
In the midst of all this activity, Mrs.
Williams also found time to teach Sunday school, participate in the PTA and
volunteer on local and national political
campaigns throughout the 1960s and
1970s. In later life, she and Mr. Williams
became active in the National Alliance
on Mental Illness (NAMI) following the

long illness and suicide of their third
child, Skyler Williams.
Mr. and Mrs. Williams moved to
Claremont in 1993 and to the Claremont
Manor in 2004. They were members of
the Claremont United Church of Christ.
Mrs. Williams remained intellectually
active and interested in the goings-on of
the world her entire life. Even when
health problems kept her confined to her
apartment, she could always be found
absorbed in a book or periodical and
ready to discuss her insights and opinions with visitors.
Mrs. Williams is survived by three of
her children, sons Neal Williams of
Santa Monica and Vernon Williams of
Alhambra, and by her daughter Prentiss
Williams of Oakland. She was preceded
in death by her husband Edwin, her
brother Ted and her son Skyler.
A memorial service for Mrs. Williams
will be held at 2 p.m. on January 10,
2015 at Claremont Manor, 650 W. Harrison Ave., Claremont.
In lieu of flowers, anyone wishing to
honor the memory of Sophie Williams is
encouraged by the family to donate to
the National Alliance on Mental Illness
at www.namicalifornia.org.

OBITUARIES
Financial advisor, golfer, family man

Gary Jason Brown of Roseville, California died of severe coronary artery disease just over a year ago on December 2,
2013. He was 51.
His memorial service, which was attended by more than 300 of his family and
friends, was held at St. Joseph Marello
Catholic Parish in Granite Bay, California.
He left behind his wife of 19 years, Christine, and his daughter, Madeline, who was
13 at the time of his death.
Gary was born in Rochester, Minnesota. His family moved to West Vancouver British Columbia, Canada when
he was a toddler. At the age of 11, his family moved to Claremont, where Gary attended Condit Elementary, La Puerta Junior High and Webb High School. He
graduated from University of California,
Davis with a Bachelor of Science degree
in Agricultural and Managerial Economics. It was at UC Davis that he met his
wife Christine.
After graduating college, Mr. Brown
worked at the Pacific Stock Exchange in
San Francisco. There he was involved in
many special projects on the trading floor.
He began his financial career as a
wire/crowd clerk, eventually becoming a
floor manager responsible for order flow
execution and overseeing all daily floor
trade operations. He worked on the Pacific Stock Exchange for six years. Mr.
Brown then moved on to the CBOE in
Chicago, where he assisted in setting up

an options market-making stock layoff
operation. From there, he moved onto the
American Stock Exchange (AMEX) in
New York as regional managing director.
In New York, Mr. Brown again established a profitable options market-making
stock layoff operation. He hired, trained
and managed several employees. He implemented a proprietary electronic execution system to execute NYSE and
NASDAQ listed securities and options
on the Option Exchanges. He established

was responsible for regulatory supervision and held many licenses. He worked
in New York City for nine years.
In 2003, Mr. Brown, along with his
wife and daughter, moved to Roseville,
California, where he developed a strong
practice as a financial advisor. His clients
trusted in his financial expertise and investment knowledge, his family noted.
His customers recognized his hard-work,
dedication and genuine character.
Mr. Brown was very athletic and
played many sports. While growing up in
Vancouver, he was a skilled hockey
player. In high school, he played soccer,
baseball and football. Gary was also an
avid downhill skier, especially during his
high school years. He went on many ski
trips with his family and friends to Park
City, Utah, Whistler, British Columbia
and Mammoth Mountain. In college, he
played intramural soccer, baseball and ultimate Frisbee. He also enjoyed the outdoors, and spent many summers working
on the family farms in Weyburn,
Saskatchewan Canada. He enjoyed farming, camping and hiking. He camped and
backpacked throughout Maui, Hawaii following high school graduation.

been a student of Elizabeth Preston for six years.
The public is invited to the art show opening, Saturday, December 13 from 2 to 4 p.m. at Elizabeths Art
Studio, located at 226 W. Foothill Blvd, Suite J, in
Claremont.
I paint for the pleasure of getting something dirty.
As Gary got older, he developed a

strong interest in the game of golf. He enjoyed the camaraderie and life lessons the
game taught. He grew so fond of the
game that he shared the principles and lessons of the game with his daughter, hoping she would make it her life-long hobby.
Often on the weekends, you would find
Gary on the golf course joined by his
wife and daughter. Mr. Brown enjoyed attending PGA Golf Tournaments and being a part of the events, especially tournaments played in the San Francisco Bay
area and at Pebble Beach on the Monterey
Peninsula.
Gary loved his family and made it a priority to spend time together. He spent
many summers joined by his immediate
and extended family on the beaches of
Solana and Del Mar in San Diego County.
Gary was a friendly, quick-witted, outgoing individual who left a lasting impression on most who met him, his family shared. He touched many lives. His
warm heart and bright smile will forever
be missed by those who had the pleasure
of knowing him.
Mr. Brown was preceded in death by
his father, Dr. David Brown. He is survived by his wife Christine; his daughter
Madeline; his mother Barbara; his brothers, Blair, Todd and Justin; and their
wives, Lisa, Jackie and Dawn; and two
nephews and three nieces.
I like to paint at 10 at night when I have time to do

whatever I want and most of my family is sleeping,
Olson said. My favorite style is abstract. A lot of my
paintings are about different moods in life. I also like
to paint cats and scenic landscapes. Some artists that
inspire me are my amazing teacher Ms. Elizabeth,
Bob Ross, Leonardo DiVinci and Wyland.
Ms. Preston, a Mt. Baldy resident, owns Elizabeths
Art Studio in Claremont, an art/teaching studio. Both
children and adults are invited to learn drawing, watercolor, pastel, oil, acrylic and mixed-media painting.

laremont kicks-off the holiday season in style every year on the first weekend of December. Costumed carolers stroll the Village singing
jolly classics, Mr. and Mrs. Claus take photos with children at City Hall, one of Santas reindeer keeps himself busy by snacking on
holiday decorations, stores share holiday cheer with treats like candy canes and guests gather at the Claremont Depot to witness the
special tree lighting ceremony. This year the festivities extended into the Claremont Packing House, which was covered in twinkling lights
where arts and crafts vendors filled the 19020s industrial building, children performed songs and plays and families put on silly elf hats in the
photo booth, then got to snag a warm cup of hot chocolate. The Old School House on the corner Foothill and Indian Hill boulevards had their
own tree lighting ceremony and Mr. Claus made a second Claremont appearance bringing joy to local businesses and families all weekend long.

Gender-linked traits in
CEO faces predict corporate performance
A new study published in The Leadership

company profits. In addition, higher ratings
of powerfulness, dominance and leadership
ability, what are traditionally thought of as
masculine traits, marginally predicted company rank for female CEOs.
The Pomona College study, The face
says it all: CEOs, gender and predicting
corporate performance, investigated
whether there is a relationship between perceptions of male and female CEOs genderlinked personality traits and an objective
indicator of their companys performance,
in this case Fortune 1000 rank and company profits.
Despite marginal gains in recent years,
women led only four percent of Fortune
500 companies in 2013 and occupied only
16.3 percent of board seats that year.
In the study, college students viewed 50
photos, evenly split between male and female CEOs of comparably ranked companies in the 2007 Fortune 1000. They then
ranked each face for 10 factors: compassion, interpersonal warmth, supportiveness,
dominance, powerfulness, success leading
a company, femininity, masculinity, competence and facial maturity.
Up until now, there hasnt been much
empirical evidence that stereotypical female traits are associated with leadership,
especially in such large and successful
companies, Deborah Burke, a co-author of
the study and a Pomona College professor
of linguistics and cognitive science said.

Journalist discusses Putins war on the West
elebrated journalist Masha Gessen

recently spoke at Scripps College,
warning that Russia is becoming a
dictatorship under President Vladimir Putin.
During a November 18 talk, she told students and
community members that Russias burgeoning anti-gay
policies, arrests of dissidents and incursions into the
Crimea are all part of Mr. Putins war on the West.
It doesnt look like the Russian president is going anywhere soon, she noted. Mr. Putin served two four-year
terms and wanted more. Taking advantage of vague
wording in the countrys new constitution that stipulates
a president shall serve no more than two consecutive
terms, he devised a workaround.
After finishing his second term in 2008, Mr. Putin became prime minister of Russia. His prime minister,
Dmitry Medvedev, became president. During the tenure
of Medvedev, who Ms. Gessen characterized as a seatwarmer, legislation was enacted extending presidential
terms to six years.
In 2011, Mr. Putin announced that he intended to run
for president in the 2012 election. He was voted back into
office in heavily contested elections. At first, it seemed
Russians would not stand for this political game of musical chairs. In December of 2011, as the inauguration
loomed, demonstrators took to the streets in 99 cities,
calling for fair elections. Some of the more vocal protestors called for Mr. Putin to be thrown out of office.
It was the best time ever in Moscow, Ms. Gessen
said. Being in the middle of that felt exhilarating...It felt
like the 2000 revolution in Belgrade. It felt like the 2004
revolution in Kiev.
She had just finished writing a book called The Man
Without a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin.
She called her editor and told her she had settled on her
next project, a book chronicling the fall of Putin.
Her editors reaction was measured. She said sure,
start taking notes.
Ms. Gessen soon realized she had to switch courses.
2013, Russia enacted a law against the distribution of

propaganda of non-traditional sexual relationships
among minors. In its wake, Ms. Gessen said, has come a
surge of homophobic rhetoric and hate crimes directed
toward people who are identified as LGBT.
In March, Vitaly Milonov, the politician responsible
for the passage of a law against the foreign adoption of
Russian children championed the legislation by saying,
The Americans want to adopt Russian children and
bring them up in perverted families like Masha
Gessens.
For Ms. Gessen, who was attacked and beaten outside
of parliament a few months later, the threat was clear. In
December of 2013, she and her partner Darya Oreshkina
moved to New York for fear that Russian authorities

laremont High School girls soccer

won their home non-conference
match against Alta Loma High
School on Tuesday night with a score of
3-1, bringing their record to 2-0.
The two teams seemed pretty evenly matched, with
Alta Loma dominating the momentum for much of
the game, but Claremont made it count when they got
into scoring position and that made all of the difference.
SPORTING
Claremonts first goal came six
LIFE
minutes into the first half when midfielder Ryley Settles hit one in from the right side
after being fed the ball by forward Karsyn Jordan.
Roughly a minute and a half later it was Jordans turn,
tricking the Braves goalkeeper with an unassisted
goal over her head, which put the Pack up 2-0.
Alta Loma came into the second half fired up, but
at 59 minutes of play it was the Wolfpack who scored
once again. Karsyn Jordan, with a team high five
points for two goals and one assist, again got one over
the goalkeepers head with an assist from Julia
Cantrell.
Alta Lomas main offensive strategy seemed to be
feeding the ball to their standout player, Leah Pruitt,
right in front of the Packs net and letting Pruitt do the
rest. Unfortunately, this did not work out as Claremonts defense led by goalkeeper Sydney Fortson,
who had seven saves, shut down almost every attempt. Pruitt did eventually score late in the game, but
by then it was too late for the Braves to come back.
The Braves also squandered several opportunities
where the Pack fouled in front of their own net, but
free kicks at close range went wide or high.
Claremont Coach Tim Tracey is optimistic about
his team this year.
We showed a lot of fight and a lot of intensity,
which is something we can work with, he said after
the game. He also noted that the team is healthy and
had no injuries.
The next three weeks are dominated by tournament
play for the girls.

Boys basketball steps up in OT

The Wolfpack had a cliffhanger on Monday, but
held on to defeat Hawthorne, 71-66 in overtime. We
were down by four with 32 seconds and got a steal
and basket by Laquamie Bond and two free throws
with 3.6 seconds left from Tyler Fraser to send the
game into overtime at 62-62, according to coach
Stan Tolliver. In overtime the Pack outscored the
Cougars 9-4 clinching the win. Game high honors go
to Laquamie Bond with 25 points, Kyle Scalmanini
who chipped in with nine points, and Angelo Sandoval who had 10 rebounds.
The boys played Corona on Thursday and have two
games in the Artesia Tournament this weekend.
Water polo team still finding their way
Girls water polo season is just starting and last
weekend the team had their first junior varsity and
frosh tournament at Bonita. We were 1-4 overall but
had awesome teamwork and the girls learned a lot
from their first games, said coach Michelle Hernandez.
Freshman Emily Marks had two hat tricks over the
weekend, totaling 12 goals during the five games.
Sophomore goalie Charlotte Cheng led a strong defense averaging seven blocks per game, many of
which were one-on-one. All teams are on the road this
weekend with varsity making its first appearance of
the season at the Ayala Tournament Thursday through
Saturday and junior varsity and frosh at the

Slow start ends up with easy win for girls bball

On Monday, girls basketball kicked off their winter
tournament with a game against Ontario Christian
High School, which the Pack won 53-28. The game
started out a little slow but the girls picked it up once
their nerves subsided, according to Coach Darryl
Kennedy. Overall it was a good team effort by all,
but Natalia Bertirottis defensive pressure stood out a
great deal to me, he said. We had a few lapses in
there offensively but the girls seemed to smooth them
out as we pushed forward through the game.
On Tuesday, they faced La Mirada, a team that Mr.
Kennedy thought would give them a different type of
challenge in that they set a lot of screens, prompting a
different defense to overcome that type of offense. It
apparently paid off as the girls won 51-43. They
played Chaffey on Thursday.
Defensive leads way for boys soccer
Boys soccer is off to a big start, winning four
games and tying one for a 4-0-1 record. Last week
they beat Etiwanda 6-0, Chino 1-0, J. W. North 2-0,
and Upland 2-1. On Tuesday they tied Alta Loma 2-2.
The boys do not play again until Wednesday when
they have an away game against Covina.

HYPNOTHERAPY: "Past
Life Regressions" are truly
fascinating and quite revealing. Sometimes, when all
else fails, a residual issue
from a past life is the obstacle
to healing phobias, ongoing
physical conditions and unfufillment. A regression can
also reawaken your talent
and direction. Call Joanne
Dinsmore, Author of Pathways
to the Healing Arts, 909-9469098. Visit americaninstitute

Case No. BP157528
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors,
contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of
LILIAN RODRIGUEZ
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has
been filed by Robert Foley in the Superior Court
of California, County of LOS ANGELES.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE
requests that Robert Foley be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the
decedent.
THE PETITION requests the decedent's 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 on Dec. 17, 2014 at 8:30 AM in Dept. No. 5
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 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 avail-able from the court clerk.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid on 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 the outstanding lien 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 the property. NOTICE TO

AMERICAN AVENUE, CLAREMONT,
CA 91711 Assessors Parcel No.: 8322-002021 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
28
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
postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled
time and date for the sale of this property,
you may call 714-573-1965 for information
regarding the trustees sale or visit this Internet Web site http://www.qualityloan.com ,
using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-14-629629-JB .
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 or on the Internet Web site. The best way
to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned
Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other
common designation, if any, shown herein.
If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of
the property may be obtained by sending a
written request to the beneficiary within 10
days of the date of first publication of this
Notice of Sale. If the Trustee is unable to
convey title for any reason, the successful
bidder's sole and exclusive remedy shall be
the return of monies paid to the Trustee,
and the successful bidder shall have no
further recourse. If the sale is set aside for
any reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall
be entitled only to a return of the deposit
paid. The Purchaser shall have no further
recourse against the Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagees Attorney. If you
have previously been discharged through
bankruptcy, you may have been released of
personal liability for this loan in which case
this letter is intended to exercise the note
holders rights against the real property only.
As required by law, you are hereby notified
that a negative credit report reflecting on
your credit record may be submitted to a
credit report agency if you fail to fulfill the
terms of your credit obligations. QUALITY
MAY BE CONSIDERED A DEBT COLLECTOR ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A

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!

EXPECT
EXPERTISE
ur family was fortunate to have
Geoff as a neighbor for years, and
then to be able to experience his care and
expertise as a realtor when my parents
decided to sell their home in Claremont.
Geoff and his associates ushered us
through each step in the process with
patience, and the house sold quickly for
the approved priceunderscoring his
knowledge as well as his specialty in the
Claremont market. I would certainly
recommend his services, as you will be
working with someone who is intelligent
and friendly, as well as a true expert in his
field. The Madsen Family at
276 Lamar Drive
eoff was perfect. He came with

exemplary recommendations and
did what he said he would in a very
professional manner. I congratulate Wheeler
Steffen Sotheby's for such an extraordinary
Realtor associate. If I come across anyone
who wants to buy or sell a house, I wouldn't
recommend anyone else! David Rosenfeld
