City attorney to retire after 25 years with Claremont

Center, city hall renovations, the citys general plan up-

A
fter more than two decades, Sonia
Carvalho is leaving her position
as the city attorney for Claremont.
The decision, which resulted from a closed-session
council meeting Tuesday afternoon, was learned
Wednesday evening. The Tuesday meeting was agen-
dized as public employee evaluation.
During the city attorney evaluation this evening, we
mutually decided that after 25 years of service to the
city, Sonia Carvalho will retire, Mayor Larry Schroeder
wrote in the statement, which was dictated to the
COURIER by City Manager Tony Ramos. The city
council will work with the city manager to find a suc-
cessor.
Ms. Carvalho, when reached by phone Thursday
morning, said the decision to leave Claremont was borne
from her desire to scale back work after 25 years with
the city and her firm, Best, Best & Krieger (BB&K).
She will now work only with Santa Ana as their city
attorney. Ms. Carvalho previously worked for the cities
of Colton, Yorba Linda and Azusa.
One of her last tasks was to wrap up the Pomona Col-
lege Museum of Art project lawsuits. Mr. Ramos deci-
sion to retire in August was also a significant moment
for her, she said.
When Tony [Ramos] gave his notice he was going to
retire, it certainly caused me to examine that plan and it
all coincided very nicely, she said.
Ms. Carvalhos retirement comes on the heels of
Claremonts withdrawal of appeals regarding the failed
takeover of the water system. Separate attorneys from
BB&K represented the city against Golden State Water
Company, while Ms. Carvalho served as the citys gen-
eral counsel.
Ms. Carvalho said while the decision over the water
trial was disappointing to those who worked on it,
that outcome did not personally have an impact on my
date, the Village West expansion, Johnsons Pasture and
the 210 freeway expansion.
One of the reasons I enjoyed working for Claremont
is that the community is such a tenacious place, she
said. The people dont give up.
One story she remembered was when the city was
battling Caltrans over restriping Foothill Boulevard, a
project that coincided with the 210 freeway expansion.
The city was trying to figure out how to preserve the
Claremont look by blocking Caltrans from painting
on Foothill Boulevard.
I said, We can try this and we can try that, and the
assistant city manager at the time says Okay thats
great, we have a plan, she explained with a laugh. I

Council cautiously approves energy alternative ordinance

T
he city council approved
membership into a
brand-new countywide
energy alternative, but not with-
out reservations.
The Community Choice Aggregation
(CCA) program is a legal structure that al-
lows cities and counties to procure ener-
gy independent of Southern California Edi-
son and allow for a higher percentage of
renewable energy. The CCAs other goals
include creating clean energy jobs, re-
ducing greenhouse gas emissions, reduc-
ing electricity bills and providing more lo-
cal control, according to the city.
The CCA works like this: the local gov-
ernment or a Joint Powers Authority
(JPA) gets the power, while investor-
owned utilities like Edison continue to
maintain the power lines and bill the
customers, according to the city.
Customers living in communities who
enter into a CCA program are automati-
cally enrolled, but can opt out at any time.
At the May 23 council meeting, Director
of Community Services Roger Bradley
said that, based on previous CCA models,
95 percent of customers who join the pro-
gram stay on board.
The council heard pitches from two pro-
gramsthe Los Angeles County Com-
munity Choice Energy (LACCE), which
is a countywide authority gathering cities
to create a program, and the California
independent program.
In a feasibility study, which included
Claremont, it was found that under the
LACCE program, rates
CITY are expected to be 5.4
COUNCIL percent lower than the
basic Edison rate at 28
percent renewable energy.
At 50 percent renewable energy, the
LACCE will be cheaper than Edison by
about 4.1 percent, but at 100 percent re-
newable energy, the LACCE will be
more expensive than Edison by 6.3 per-
cent, according to the city.
LACCE will be governed by a board of
directors, including one representative
from each city in the program. Claremont
has a deadline of December 27 to be part
of the decision-making process for form-
ing the LACCE. Services should start be-
tween January and June 2018. The first of-
ficial meeting of the board was in August
and included the cities of West Hollywood,
Rolling Hills, South Pasadena and Cal-
abasas.
The council was concerned with the un-
known aspects of joining LACCE and
spent hours asking LACCE representative
Bill Carnahan and CCEA representative
and Lancaster Deputy City Manager Ja-
son Caudle questions about the programs.
Public comment was mostly positive,
with six residents offering support.
Resident Jim Belna was against it,
likening the discussion right after losing
hand into a running garbage disposal and
trying to figure out whether to stick his sec-
ond hand in. He emphasized it would be
irresponsible for a board of councilmem-
bers with no energy experience to have
buying power over electricity.
Mayor Larry Schroeder was specifically
concerned with topics such as when the
state will eventually mandate 100 percent
renewable energy, thereby rendering the
CCA useless. Other concerns included
whether the California Public Utilities
Commission (CPUC) will be involved,
what the penalties would be for cities who
opt out and who will be responsible for a
long-term contract with Edison, if the city
decides to join LACCE.
Mayor Pro Tem Opanyi Nasiali under-
stood the benefits of the program, but
shared those concerns, amending a saying
from his youthNothing is so good that
nothing bad can come out if it.
Councilmember Joe Lyons, who sup-
ports joining the program, called the oth-
er councilmembers to task, claiming in part
that entering into a CCA fulfills the citys
sustainability agenda.
This is one of those line-in-the-sand
moments for me, this really is a defining
moment for the city in our efforts to
achieve the kind of goals we set as a city
eight years ago, Mr. Lyons said.
At the May 23 meeting, the council
asked that the Community and Human
Services Commission play an active role
city should join the program. With the
deadline now just eight weeks away, the
council put Councilmember Sam Pe-
droza in charge of gathering more infor-
mation.
In the end, the council reached a com-
promise: it would approve the first read-
ing of the ordinance, and between now and
the second reading, Mr. Pedroza will
reach out to cities who are already part of
LACCE to gather input.
He will report back to the council, and
the ordinance will be pulled for discussion
during its second reading. The amended
motion was approved, 3-2, with Mr.
Nasiali and Mr. Schroeder voting no.
November 8 election date finalized
The council adopted the ordinance
moving up the next election date to No-
vember 8, 2018. The move is in response
to Senate Bill 415, which mandated local
elections run in tandem with larger elec-
tions to curb low voter turnout.
The deal means the current councils
terms will be shortened by four months.
The council discussed the issue during the
previous meeting, and narrowly voted to
bring the ordinance forth for further con-
sideration. The council approved the or-
dinance 3-2, with Mr. Nasiali and Corey
Calaycay voting no.
The next council meeting is November

Wild animals on prowl kill five pets in north Claremont

His neck was bleeding. We ran out and, sure enough. Navarro Drive to do his business around 6:30 a.m.

T
wo Claremont families are reeling
after five pets were brutally killed
by wild animals this past week.
Four dogs belonging to the Hadfield family were
killed Tuesday night by what Arcie Hadfield thinks was
a bobcat. The family had five dogs in allScooby,
Nala, Boomer, Holly and Scooter, three of which are
Chihuahuas.
The Hadfield family has had run-ins with wild ani-
mals in the pastNala was injured by an unknown an-
imal a few weeks ago, and since then the family has
been putting their dogs inside their garage on Andover
Drive before the sun goes down, Ms. Hadfield said.
When we took Nala, the doctor said once they
come, they will come back again, Ms. Hadfield said.
But on Tuesday, the family was late coming home
from a Claremont city council meeting, where Ms.
Hadfields son was receiving an award for his work
with the Claremont Police Explorers. When the family
returned home around 7:30 p.m., they knew immedi-
ately something was wrong.
Scooby was walking funny, Ms. Hadfield said.
Boomer, Holly and Scooter were dead. Ms. Hadfield
didnt see their bodies, but was told by her husband that
they were gutted out. Scooby was alive but in bad
shapehis neck and his back were both ripped and
bleeding.
He put up a good fight, he was trying to defend the
dogs, Ms. Hadfield said.
The family rushed the 18-year-old Portuguese Hunt-
ing Hound to a veterinary hospital, but the prognosis
was not good. The next morning, the vet told Ms. Had-
field that Scooby was gasping for breath and suffer-
ing, and was put down.
He was a great dog, an emotional Ms. Hadfield
said.
Lt. Mike Ciszek of the Claremont Police Department
did not confirm what kind of animal was responsible
for the attack, but Ms. Hadfield thinks it was a bobcat.
Bobcats had been seen in the area recently, and a neigh-
bor told Ms. Hadfield he saw the animal on her wall
around the same time as when the attack occurred.
A small dog was killed in another North Claremont
backyard on Monday morning. Randy Scotts eight-
year-old Maltese, Ringo, was let out of the house on
His routine is when hes done he comes back to the
back door and my wife lets him in, Mr. Scott said. It
was peculiar when he didnt come back.
Mr. Scotts wife went around to see if Ringo had
somehow escaped through the front gate, and when she
came back, she found his body.
Mr. Scott told the COURIER he had seen bobcats in
the neighborhood in June or July, and his neighbor even
took a picture of the animal. He had also seen coyotes
in the neighborhood two nights prior, and one had killed
a neighbors dog a few years back.
As an inside dog, Ringo was let out in the backyard
for only three or four minutes Monday morning before
he fell prey to the bobcat.
The attack has left both Mr. Scott and his wife pretty
numb, and he believes the incidents could act as a
warning to people in the area to secure their small pets
or even stand near their pets whent they go outside,
even for just a short time.
I think we all have a false sense of security, he said.

Police arrest burglary suspect in Glendora motel

Police arrested a La Verne man on suspicion of com-
mitting five commercial burglaries along Foothill
Boulevard earlier this year.
Erik Pontious, 43, was apprehended at a motel in
Glendora Wednesday morning, according to a release
from Lt. Mike Ciszek of the Claremont Police Depart-
ment. He was arrested without incident and taken to
CPD jail, where he was booked and held for court.
The burglaries occurred in the early morning hours
of August 22, when Audacious Salon, Supercuts,
Golden Spa Massage and Salon Bloom all had their
windows smashed around 1:37 a.m., according to a pre-
vious release from the police department. Surveillance
footage from the scene showed the suspect entering the
businesses and leaving in a yellow Camaro.
Claremont detectives found the Camaro later that af-
ternoon. As they waited for marked police cars to ar-
rive, the Camaro drove erratically on the 210 freeway,
eventually evading police in an Azusa neighborhood.
Mr. Pontious has been charged with five counts of
commercial burglary and one count of vehicle pursuit,
and is expected to appear in Pomona Superior Court on Courtesy of Ananda and Dianne Ganguly

Mr. Barrett was set in a full body cast from
his knees to his armpits. He spent three
months in that cast, in the pre-air condi-
tioning days. Summer gave way to fall, but
the Texas sun didnt know it. The heat and
humidity hung around well into October.
Another slightly smaller, walker cast fol-
lowed for another 90 days.
After more than six months of rehabil-
itation, his work had paid off: He was sent
home, although wearing a uniform two
sizes too large so that it would fit over his
body cast.
He woke up Christmas morning at his

I felt tremendous, said Mr. Barrett, now
93. It was just like a huge wave had been
taken off of my back.
Back home he registered for the fall se-
mester at Pasadena City College, studying

Seduced by Greece
by Jan Wheatcroft
sitting at the harbor surrounded by boats and fisherman.

I
love traveling, especially to foreign
countries. I love to revisit old friends
and spend time in places I have loved.
I so enjoy finding new places to go and to
have new adventures. However, traveling
and living in a foreign country are two
very different and wonderful experiences.
I was lucky to go to an island in Greece and stay for a
long time with my children. We just existed there in a very
ordinary Greek way for a few years. My sons went to Greek
public school and I helped make signs in English for busi-
nesses trying to attract their first tourists.
I taught English as a second language to children and
adults. I worked in shops selling to cruise passengers on
days when the ships docked in the harbor for a few hours.
And I wove my small tapestries and sold them to the
tourists. I would sit in the cafes at the harbor and weave,
attracting the attention of tourists who visited for longer
periods of time. They would happily buy my work.
Basically, I led a regular life. I bought food from the small
shops and from the men sitting side-saddle on their don-
keys with baskets full of tomatoes, cucumbers and pep-
pers shouting as they passed the houses, stopping to sell
to the housewives (and the foreign tourist).
I sent my eldest son down to the bakery for the day and
he would happily return home munching on the bread ends,
which were my favorite part, too. I helped the boys with
homework and we did lessons in English, studying writ-
ing and spelling so they wouldnt fall behind in their Amer-
ican school studies.
I loved the flow of life in our small harbor village. The
changing seasons formed the basic pattern of our days. The
church and its customs and holidays formed another lay-
er. Weddings, baptisms and funerals with their customs
created the icing that held it all together.
Our house was tiny, with one room that the boys shared.
I slept in the kitchen. We had cold running water that we
heated for baths taken standing in a plastic baby bathtub.
Our toilet flushed with a bucket of water. I cooked on a
hot plate fueled by bottled gas. In the summer, water was
turned off at noon, so bottles and buckets were filled for
daily use early in the morning. Once a week, I boiled wa-
ter to scrub clothes, then I would hang them on our line.
We lived across the street from the sea and the boys could
walk to school. All children stopped at the local snack shop
on their way to school to buy a treat for mid-morning snack
time. That was a highlight that they savored.
Our house was originally built for Greeks returning from
Turkey. Our island was the closest to Turkey, and many
of the returning Greeks came to settle there. The houses
had been built quickly with the bare necessities but I al-
ways felt lucky to have lived there. Daily life was simple
with plenty of time to visit with the locals to learn their
ways. Shopping and cooking was often quite a social ex-
perience. Cooking often depended on what was available.
The boys would get bored with what I created and would
beg for a souvlaki or Gyro with fried potatoes. Even though
money was tight it was a pleasure to see them so happy.
I loved sitting at the harbor watching life in its richness.
Fishing boats came and went unloading their catch, sell-
ing to the waiting women and the restaurants. I watched
cats sit patiently, waiting for bits and pieces to be tossed
to them. My youngest son loved to fish and had great pa-
tience. He would spend hours with his friends holding a
piece of cork with a string of plastic wrapped around
it and a hook at the end. He knew how to make bready
bait, like the other boys. If he ever caught anything I nev-
er knew it, because he didnt even like fish. But he loved
We all enjoyed it when the tourist yachts pulled into port
and we could learn about their travels and home countries.
I could sit for hours with my Greek coffee just being a part
of the island and harbor life.
In those early days, the best way to celebrate was to go
to a dance place for the evening with a group and dance
into the night. Tables were set around a stage where peo-
ple danced. The bouzouki and guitar players sat, and a singer
would stand while a belly dancer gyrated amid much shout-
ing from the audience. Dances were paid for by a group
and only those who paid were invited to dance . A per-
son could join in only if invited.
Most were circle dances with the dancer at the head of
the line leading the steps. Sometimes a person would per-
form a soulful dance by himself while friends came up
to clap or hand him glasses of beer or wine. If an unin-
vited person entered the circle a fight could break out. Oth-
erwise people in the audience would take the plates, glass-
es and bottles from their tables and smash them on the
ground as the waiter swept up the shards. It was just like
the film, Never on Sunday, which I loved. Going to a
dance was a wonderful experience. I felt my blood flow
and I was high on the experience. I could dance with wild
abandon very easily. Walking home late at night was a good
way to cool off after a night of dancing.
For me, living in a small town in Greece was an en-
riching experience. Just hearing Greek music stirs up many
of those wild feelings. Holidays and celebrations were dif-
ferent than what we were used to, but they were special.
We gambled at New Years, celebrated Easter with roast
goat, red eggs and church services. On St. Johns Day, we
watched as the cross was thrown into the harbor. The boys
would then dive into the cold sea until one of them retrieved
it. They would then parade through the village with the
cross. We went to weddings and got our bags of sugared
almonds. We were a part of the town and the life. We had
been accepted. It was a wonderful period of time for me,
and I hope my sons will one day remember it as a rich ex-
perience for them as well.

Fatima! Youve tuned your mind into my mind

with those evil, wicked nasty thoughts you are
having about me. Stop or Ill come after
your psychic witch mind!

Bullying at CHS
Dear Editor:
Jack Sultze wrote the editor on Oc-
tober 20 with concerns about bullying
at Claremont High School (CHS). The
mission of CHS is to nurture the aca-
demic, social, physical, and emotional
development of all students to prepare
them to take their place as productive
and invested members of the larger
world community.
The CHS staff and I know that nu-
merous factors contribute to the devel-
opment of our students over many
years, including family and societal
norms, religious institutions and local
community culture.
CHS is also responsible for modeling
and teaching social skills that positively
influence our students emotional de-
velopment. A key component of meet-
ing these goals is to address bullying.
We do that in many ways at CHS.
Throughout the year at CHS our
Wolfcast TV program delivers content
on the different types of bullying: phys-
ical, verbal, social and cyber bullying.
The content also addresses the mental
health implications of bullying.
Students are also taught what they
can do when they observe bullying: in-
tervene, separate the students and report
it to a caring adult. Bullying is a perni-
cious behavior that can be addressed
only if it is known.
Last spring, CHS implemented the
BullyBox, a digital application de-
READERS COMMENTS
signed to allow students to report acts
of bullying or other school safety con-
cerns anonymously. Information shared
on the app is immediately emailed to
CHS administrators. This year as part
of our Digital Citizenship Curriculum,
all CHS students will receive a module
on cyberbullying.
Most importantly, our staff is trained
to intervene and report any time they
observe bullying on campus. The ad-
ministration imposes appropriate disci-
pline when a student is caught bullying.
CHS will continue to work tirelessly
to educate our students and staff about
bullying. Additionally, we will continue
to analyze our student survey data and
implement the best research-based
practices to mitigate bullying at CHS.

In a recent letter to the editor, Jack

problem of bullying at Claremont High

Flummoxed by the venerable SAT
B
ack in my day, the SAT was known
for its puzzling questions and de-
mand of unconventional vocabulary.
I can remember my friends strolling the halls
with homemade flashcards cramming
words (that they might never use again) into
their brains. Capacious, querulous and
sagacity come to mind.
That outdated version of the test also introduced a type
of idiomatic phraseology into English that still exists
among people of my age group, but apparently not our
kids. I recently quipped to my 17-year-old son, Rules
are to high school as professionalism is to? His blank
(somewhat condescending) stare gave it all awayhe
thought I was crazy.
Of course, I was referring to the analogy portion of the
exam, which offered comparisons, such as paltry is to
significance as ___ is to ___, for which students were
given sets of words to choose from (in this case, re-
dundant:discussion, austere:landscape, opulent:wealth,
oblique:familiarity, banal:originality). Widely criti-
cized as being irrelevant and purposefully tricky, these
types of question were removed from the SAT in 2005,
long before my teen had a chance to take a crack at them.
While the human brain is presumably developing in
the same way it did a century ago, we are constantly
changing the way in which we assess intelligence. The
first standardized college entrance examination was giv-
en in 1901. It was entirely essay format and foreign lan-
guage played a significant role. Questions were asked
on history, mathematics, chemistry and physics, as well
as, English, French, German, Latin and Greek.

Garland Gar McGuire Byrum II
Prominent Southern California political activist, author, historian
Local political activist Gar Byrum
died from a sudden cardiac episode at
his home in Claremont on October 14,
2017, just shy of his 72nd birthday. Mr.
Byrum died doing what he loved best,
working on an entry to his political blog
Politics from the Middle.
Gar was well known in Claremont
and nearby communities for his wry wit
and keen political insights. He enjoyed a
good laugh and was self-effacing, gen-
erous and a devoted father and friend.
Gar was born Monday, October 22,
1945 at the US Naval Hospital in San
Diego. He lived in several states
throughout his childhood as a result of
being the son of a US Naval Meteorolo-
gist. The family lived in New York, then
New Orleans for 10 years until his sec-
ond semester of tenth grade, then Tifton,
Georgia before settling in Claremont,
where Gar graduated from Claremont
High School in 1964.
Despite having moved several times
during his high school years and various
health challenges, Mr. Byrum was a
very learned man, having earned his
bachelor of arts degree from California
Western University, Phi Alpha Theta, in
1968 with a major in political science
and a minor in history. He attended the
University of Southern California in
1969, earning a masters in history.
He went on to earn his Juris Doctor
degree from the University of West Los
Angeles in 1980. His family shared that
Gar was a first-class American Civil
War scholar with near encyclopedic
knowledge of historical facts and specif-
ically our founding fathers and the after-
math of this most deadly war.
Mr. Byrum married Lezli Callahan in
1974 and had two children, Sean and
Siobhan. The couple later divorced.
Mr. Byrum was a world traveler, who
traveled extensively throughout Europe
time with an emphasis on helping sen-
and North America. He had a passion
for the Hawaiian Islands, which he reg-
ularly visited throughout the years on
family vacations and with friends. Any-
one who was headed to Hawaii would
be advised by Gar to make a special trip
to his favorite restaurant, Mamas Fish
House on Maui.
Mr. Byrum was an accomplished in-
dependent insurance broker since 1974
and was a prolific political activist, au-
thor and community organizer. He was
approached to be a freedom rider during
the civil rights movement of the 1960s
and worked on Robert Kennedys cam-
paign.
Following Mr. Kennedys death, Mr.
Byrum took a step back from politics,
but returned with ardor in 1994 to cam-
paign for inter-district transfers from the
Pomona Unified School District. His in-
volvement in that effort resulted in a run
for the PUSD school board.
Many students who previously had
not been allowed to attend Troy High
School, a magnet school in Fullerton,
because they lived outside of the school
district, were able to attend as a result of
Mr. Byrums tireless efforts, his daugh-
ter noted.
Mr. Byrum was a single father to his
two children and once his daughter left
home to attend college, he returned to
his career as an insurance agent, this
iors. Professionally, he was considered a
senior expert, who specialized in
Medicare and long-term care, among
other senior concerns.
Mr. Byrum again returned to politics
and became the driving force in many
Democratic campaigns and political or-
ganizations over the last 13 years. He
was co-founder and an executive board
member of The American Institute for
Progressive Democracy (TAIPD), presi-
dent and most recently vice president in
charge of programming of the Demo-
cratic Club of Claremont, the program
chair of the La Caada-Crescenta Dem-
ocratic Club, an executive board mem-
ber of Congressman Adam B. Schiffs
USA Political Action Committee, re-
gional headquarters manager of the
Democratic National Committee and
delegate at the Democratic National
Convention in 2008. He was also an
elected board member of the Los Ange-
les County Democratic Central Com-
mittee from 2004 to 2008.
We will miss Gars inimitable per- tireless advocate for justice, Mr. Boyn-

the Democratic Club of Claremont
shared with members. Let us dedicate
our work in this upcoming campaign
season to Gars unstinting efforts to
elect Democrats and return this nation
to one that has a heart for the common
good.
For over a decade, Mr. Byrum was an
integral part of several Democratic po-
litical campaigns at the local, state and
national levels. He also worked as a
campaign consultant and volunteer.
Fellow TAIPD board member Sandy
Hester met Mr. Byrum through politics
but ultimately found a dear friend.
We will miss his presence in our
lives as we move forward with his spirit
beside us. I will never forget his influ-
ence on our world and his friendship in
my life, Ms. Hester shared. He was
my brother-in-arms.
Mr. Byrum was seen regularly tabling
and registering voters at local farmers

markets, the LA County Fair and at
many Claremont city events. Locals
may remember him best stationed out-
side the Village Starbucks as he manned
the Democratic Club of Claremont table
on Sunday mornings.
He was always calm, gave intelli-
gent rebuttals and was so kind, fellow
democrat Loretta Arenas recalled. We
had wonderful conversations while
working the Democratic Club table at
the farmers market registering voters
and talking politics.
Mr. Byrum was a regular contributor
of letters to several local papers, and
had a letter to the editor published in the
COURIER the day before his death.
Since 2013, he wrote a widely-read po-
litical blog, Politics from the Middle
(politicsfromthemiddle.wordpress.com).
Gar was a deeply compassionate in-
dividual whose empathy for others was
only surpassed by his keen intellect,
shared Claremonter Rose Ash. I shall
miss our political repartees and his pres-
ence in our community as one of the
wise elders.
Mel Boynton, advocacy chair at
UNA-USA of Pomona Valley and a
longtime friend, will remember Mr.
Byrum most for his conviction.
Gar was generous and kind and a
ton said. Gar will live on in the lives
and actions of his many friends.
Mr. Byrum had been planning his re-
tirement and was in the final stages of
moving to England this December to be
with his daughter. He is survived by his
son, Sean Byrum; his daughter, Siobhan
Pycroft and son-in law, Richard Pycroft;
and by his sister, Maralou Gray.
A funeral service will be held at 4

CHS cross country shines on big stage at Mt. Sac

T
he drive that propels Claremont dis-
tance runner Sydney Hwang was on
display Tuesday evening during the
cross-country teams evening workout.
Rather than run with the girls teamwhere she would
be way out in frontHwang ran with the boys, forcing
her to chase, which makes her faster.
The dedication is paying off since Hwang, a junior,
recently broke Annie Boos school record on the hilly
three-mile Mt. Sac course. Sophomore Azalea Segura-
Mora also bettered Boos time.
Those record times were set last week during the pres-
tigious team sweepstakes race for Division 1 and 2
schools, at the Mt. Sac Cross Country Invitational meet.
Claremont came away with a strong second place to-
taling 68 points, finishing behind powerhouse Great Oak,
45 points, but ahead of 14 other squads. Hwang took sixth
place with a time of 17:31 followed by Segura-Mora, 10th
at 17:45, Kalinda Reynolds, 15th at 18:02, Angie
Gushue, 18th at 18:05, and Tess Rounds, 19th, 18:06.
The boys team also competed in the sweepstakes race
claiming seventh place, 230 points, out of 18 teams. Jun-
ior Vicente Huerta finished 23rd with a time of 15:18 to
lead the Pack, followed by A.J. Reyes, 39th at 15:37,
Michael Carpenter, 47th at 15:47, Adam Trafecanty, 60th
at 15:58, and Daniel Scheider, 61st at 15:59.
Huerta set a personal record at Mt. Sac, which was also
the sixth fastest in school history and faster than Cali-
fornia state champion Owen Bishop ran last year.
Hwang said her race strategy was to keep the leaders
in sight and power up the hills, but she also praised her
teammates.
What made the race special is all five girls had a great
race and you need all five for the team to do well, she
said.
Each team fields seven runners, but only the top five

times count in the final score.
I have so many good things to say about this team,
said Coach Bill Reeves, The gap was only 35 seconds
from Sydney to Tessthats amazing.
He said the girls posted the fastest time ever for a San
Gabriel Valley team on the Mt. Sac course, while beat-
ing all other Division 2 teams with a total team time un-
der 90 minutes. The girls racked up five of the six fastest

times for Claremont runners at Mt Sac.
Coach Reeves pointed out Great Oak beat Claremont
by 30 points at the Clovis Invitational earlier in the month,
but the girls had narrowed the gap to just 23 points at Mt.
Sac.
Because of the heat this week, the team could not put
in as many miles, so Coach Reeves had them work on
intervals.
You have to pick up the time because we are lowering
the miles, he told his team adding, Its coming down
to the end, so stay sharp.
Claremont is expected to do well in the Palomares
League Finals on October 28 at Legg Lake in Whittier.
The Pack won both of the previous league meets, although
the boys just squeaked by Ayala in the first one.
It will likely be a long road ahead for the defending
state champion Wolfpack runners including a chance to
repeat their title later this fall.

CHS ROUNDUP
FOOTBALL
Claremont High School football earned
some redemption on Friday by defeating
Bonita High School, 36-31, in La Verne.
Quarterback Reggie Retzlaff was
strong on the ground and passing with two
touchdowns, 11 carries for 107 yards, and
14 completions from 21 attempts and 135
yards.
At halftime the game was tied at 17, but
Claremont got a touchdown in the third, a
lead they would hold until the fourth quar-
ter, when Bonita scored but failed to con-
vert the extra point.
Both teams would score again the in
fourth, with Bonita going ahead by one
point with 2:38 left in the game. But the
lead did not last long, as Claremonts Zuri
Clark punched it in from 25-yards for the
game winning touchdown.
The Pack is now 1-2 in Palomares
League, 3-5 overall.
GIRLS VOLLEYBALL
The Wolfpack girls varsity volleyball
team came back from a 2-1 deficit on sets
against Bonita on to win the match, 3-2,
on Monday in La Verne, clinching second
place in the Palomares League. Claremont
took the first set, 25-22, but lost the next
two, 18-25, and 24-26. But the girls did
not let that close set slow them down,
winning the fourth, 25-10, and the
tiebreaker, 15-11.
Coach Angel Posada described the
Bonita match as an exciting playoff at-
mosphere.
It was thrilling to be a part of, for the
fans and as the coach. Exciting and nerve
wracking at the same time, but more im-
portant it was nice to see us deal with that
adversity and overcome, he said. For us
to be down 2-1 after losing by just two
points and to come back and win solidly
with defense and great serving. Its good
for you because it makes you feel com-
fortable going into playoff time.
The Pack lost a heartbreaker to Dia-
mond Bar, 3-1 last week, with Kylie
Robinson also hurting her back. Robinson
continued to play after her injury, but was
not able to give 100 percent, according to
Coach Angel Posada.
We have had our good moments, just
as we have had our bad moments, just like
any other team. But we are overcoming it
and we finished strong, he said.
GIRLS TENNIS
Freshman Goldie La was named the
Palomares League girls tennis singles
MVP for going undefeated in both pre-
season matches and in league play, accu-
mulating a 28-0 record.
La continued her winning ways on
Tuesday, advancing to the singles semi-fi-
nals at the individual CIF preliminary
tournament held at the Claremont Club.
She resumed play on Thursday, vying for
a spot in the CIF singles tournament.
The Pack will begin their pursuit of a
CIF Division 3 team championship at
home on November 1.
GIRLS GOLF
At the Palomares League Finals last
Wednesday at Western Hills Country
Club, Juliana Gomez and Jett Legacion
made first team while Maryn Santiago
Sally Wang made second team.
Both Gomez and Legacion finished in
the top nine in league and qualified for

JACK BARRETT/continued from page 3
Gabriel Valley Sears locations for the then expanding com-
pany, finally retiring from the Pomona store in 1983.
Through Claremont Methodist, the Barretts be-
friended fellow parishioner Gertrude Feeley. It was some
time before they realized Mr. Barrett and Ms. Feeley had
something in common: she was a prisoner at Sant0 Tomas
University for three and-a-half years. Mr. Barrett had
helped liberate her.
She didnt like to talk about it very much, Mr. Bar-
rett said, at least, not with me. Ms. Feeley died in the
1980s.
Ms. Feeley, who had been a missionary in Japan, was
like a lot of people of her generation when it came to
wartime stories: the past was best left there where it be-
longed.
Mr. Barrett doesnt mind talking about the war, and his
recollections are vivid. The memories of the combat times
are in my mind just as fresh as the day that they happened,
he said. And I was scared like hell. Ive never been so
scared in all my life as I was when two Japanese were
strapped up in a Coconut Palm tree with semi-automat-
ic weapons, and killed 15 of our members, and one of them
was a friend of mine standing five feet in front of me.
It would fit that a young man (he was just 18 when
he was drafted on February 1, 1943, just six days after
graduating from Alhambra High School) who had en-
dured such horror at the hand of an enemyin this case

that enemy. But for Mr. Barrett, this is not the case. At
the time the battles were going on, it was either me or
them, he said. But after it was over with, then it was
all over. I dont hold any grudge against the Japanese.
I never did.
Time goes by, and other things happen in your life.
He would seem to be a model of forgiveness and heal-
ing. In fact, in the 1980s two Japanese men from a Tokyo
Methodist delegation stayed at his home. One of his
guests, used to Tokyos famously compressed living
spaces, marveled at the size of Mr. Barretts 1/4-acre lot.
His mouth dropped like a ton of bricks. He couldnt be-
lieve it.
Claremont COURIER/Friday, October 27, 2017 16
He also introduced the Japanese men to a particular-
ly Southern California culinary tradition with a dinner
he prepared one Friday night. I taught them how to eat
a taco, laughed Mr. Barrett. The next night, the entire
52-person Methodist delegation went to dinner at a lo-
cal Mexican restaurant, and Mr. Barretts guest proud-
ly initiated his Japanese friends in the art of the taco.
World War II has been called a just war. Its true there
was a clear enemy, distinct geography and an unimag-
inable evil that needed to be stopped. But still, some vet-
erans remain steadfast in their opposition to the concept
of a just war, including Mr. Barrett. I dont think theres
ever any good war, he said. No. I dont believe that.
I dont know that any war is ever justified. These con-
flicts of today should be handled diplomatically. I
dont think theres any justification for anybody being
killed; I dont care what the nationality is.
Mr. Barrett clearly enjoys talking about his World War
II experiences. He proudly takes part in Claremonts an-
nual Veterans Day celebration, but he feels time is run-
ning out to document his story, and the stories of other
veterans of that war.
Were going to heaven fast, he said.

More fully described in said Deed of Trust. Street Address
or other common designation of real property: 23139 Cer-
ca Drive, Santa Clarita, CA 91354 A.P.N.: 2811-011-
013 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 warranty, expressed or im-
plied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay
the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by the
Deed of Trust with interest thereon, as provided in said
note(s), advances, under the terms of said Deed of Trust,
fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts
created by said Deed of Trust. The total amount of the un-
paid balance of the obligation secured by the property to
be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and ad-
vances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice
of Sale is: $ 538,006.47. 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. If the Trustee is unable to con-
vey 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. The beneficiary of the Deed of Trust
has executed and delivered to the undersigned a written
request to commence foreclosure, and the undersigned
caused a Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be record-
ed in the county where the real property is located. NO-
highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically en-
title 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 auc-
tion, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens
senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can re-
ceive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to in-
vestigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by contacting the coun-
ty 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. NOTICE TO PROPERTY
OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may
be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, ben-
eficiary, 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-
