Workers with West Coast Arborist removed the red ironbark eucalyptus in front of city hall on Monday. According to the city, four different arborists have made independent inspections and each found evidence of termite damage, significant rotting and bleeding, which is a sign of dead wood and decay within the heartwood of the tree.

Dear Editor:
There was an admirable article in the
September 18 COURIER about CHS Principal Brett OConnor reminding students
to show courtesy to the visiting Damien
High School football team and fans. Also,
the Los Angeles Times wrote an article
about God and the outcome of games.
It brought back memories of my high
school football experience in the late 1950s.
Those were pre-Damien years when, at
Pomona Catholic High School, we played
against teams like Mater Dei. Game preparation included saying the rosary to be certain God was on our side.
I also recall chanting Kill Mater Dei
and beat Mater Dei at rallies of nice
Catholic boys and girls. (Mater Dei is Latin
translated to Mother of God.)
In retrospect, its no wonder we tied once
and lost twice, considering our ironic desire to kill and beat Gods mother.

Questions of ownership
Dear Editor:
I walked around the Village again this
morning. I realized I have a lot of suppositions about property around here.
I remember the flap about the Hahn
Building at Harrison and Harvard, and that
the land was to be left as an urban forest by
the owners of that property in their will. So
did there have to be a change in zoning to
build a school structure there, let alone any
structure at all? Whats the zoning on the
sports lot at First and Harvard? Does college ownership preclude a zoning change
necessity? And the cottages on the west
side of College Avenue are both college
property and zoned residential, I guess.
Does the whole block have to be re-zoned?
Do we vote on re-zoning?
ADVENTURES
There are four period houses on the east

side of Harvard between Shelton Park and
Fourth Street. These are supposedly college-owned and house College personnelas well as the one house on Fourth
around the corner. But they must be cityzoned for residential, I suppose.
Ive also heard that whenever there is a
house for sale near the Village, the Colleges
are the usual and top bidders and there is a
lot of residential property that is collegeowned dotting the town. Where do zoning
rights stop for the city of Claremont? What
goes over the line? Is this business about
the new Museum of Art due to pop up on
the west side of College just a zoning
change away from happening? And if it
happens, how far into the Village does it ultimately go? Last wills didnt seem to stop
Hahn from rising.
Im really torn between charming cityhood and the thrill of watching a new building go up on the campuses. Whos running
out of roomcharming city or fabulous
college architecture? Guess they need a
new art venue with all the newest conservation bells and whistles, but thats their
problem. Why does it have to be the problem of the city? Do they own that much
property in the Village?

Climate observations
Dear Editor:
In my letter of September 18, I described
the unusual sight of snow on the summit of
Mt. Baldy while the temperature in the valley was 102 degrees.
What Climate Change? was a farcical
question based on my incredulity that anyone could possibly believe that something
isnt amiss when it snows in September
here in Claremont.A little irony is a dangerous thing!

I appreciate Professor Trents observations and fully realize that anecdotal evidence observed on the local scale does not
make the case for global climate change.
However, I do believe that it is through
the observation of small anomaliesa fruit
tree blooming weeks earlier than ever before, the thinning of ice on a local pond or
snow in Septemberthat we as individuals
come to accept the validity of climate
change. Such evidence is not strictly scientific but it may be the proof that eventually stirs millions of Americans to action

co-worker about the next limb to be removed. The crew were very
careful cutting down the eucalyptus tree, using a crane to make
sure no large limbs damaged the adjacent building.
Armando Lopez secures a harness around the last limb
of the red ironbark eucalyptus in front of city hall on
Monday. It took the tree crew several hours to remove
the tree, which arborists had determined was too sick
to be saved. A replacement tree is currently being selected by city staff.

Police capture
suspect after
short pursuit
laremont police arrested an El

Monte man after a brief pursuit on Claremont Boulevard
Tuesday morning.
Anthony Ramirez, 26, was driving a dark red
Toyota Corolla that was reported stolen out of
El Monte, Claremont Police Lieutenant Aaron
Fate told the COURIER. Mr. Ramirez was on
Andrew Street when he noticed a passing police car and fled, reaching speeds close to 50
mph.
The chase came to an almost immediate end
on the 1400 block of Claremont Boulevard at
approximately 10:45 a.m., when Mr. Ramirez
pulled the car to the side of the road. Officers at
the scene conducted a high-risk traffic stop with
guns drawn as soon as the car was pulled over.
Up to eight officers were on the scene, including a police helicopter surveying the area.
A passenger in the Corolla was briefly detained and released without any charges, according to Lt. Fate. Mr. Ramirez is now facing
charges of grand theft auto and leading police
on a pursuit.

A Claremont police officer handcuffs Anthony Ramirez, the driver of a stolen Toyota Corolla, while another officer
keeps his gun trained on a passenger on Tuesday in Claremont. Claremont police arrested the two male occupants
following a short pursuit in the city.

Friday, September 25
Just before 5 p.m., 36-year-old Salome Rodriguez casually walked into
the Chase bank, located on the 800
block of south Indian Hill, to allegedly
cash a stolen check. The Pomona residents plan quickly unraveled when the
teller contacted the victim of the theft,
who confirmed it was stolen. When officers arrived on the scene, Mr. Rodriguez confessed to having a meth
pipe in his pocket, according to Lieutenant Mike Ciszek. Officers also found
two more stolen checks and a wallet
belonging to a second victim. It gets
worse from there: Mr. Rodriguez was
wanted in San Bernardino County for
allegedly stealing a trailer with $40,000
worth of belongings, including the
checks, from the first victim. Mr. Rodriguez was transferred to San
Bernardino County to face charges.

At the Bank of America on the 300
block of Yale, a customer was using an
outdoor ATM at approximately 7:30
p.m. when 23-year-old Brett Kaplan of
Chino Hills bumped into her, distracting her from what she was doing.
When she forgot to log out after leaving
the ATM, Mr. Kaplan allegedly
swooped in and withdrew $400 from
her account, according to Lt. Ciszek.
The victim called the police when she
realized what happened, but Mr. Kaplan was nowhere to be found. The
next day, however, Mr. Kaplan committed a rookie mistake: returning to the
scene of the crime to try it again. This
time officers caught him, and he was
sent to the Claremont Police Department jail to face charges.
Saturday, September 26
A knockdown, drag-out fight took
place in the parking lot of Piano Piano,
leading to several arrests. The brawl
began at approximately 2:20 a.m., when
22-year-old Raymond Ramirez of
Downey was kicked out of the bar for
getting a little too drunk. His response
was to sucker-punch two of the security
guards. Mr. Ramirezs posse, which included 21-year-old Joshua Ramirez, 22year-old Joseph Ramirez, 27-year-old
Ernie Ramirez and 24-year-old Henry
Valencia, began fighting with the two
security guards, spilling out into the
parking lot.
When officers arrived at the Claremont hot spot, all members of the
Ramirez clan (as well as Mr. Valencia)
were placed under arrest, with Ernie
Ramirez and Mr. Valencia getting
picked up for outstanding warrants.
They were transported to the CPD jail,
where they were booked and released
with notices to appear. One of the secu-
rity guards was issued a citation for allegedly battering a woman during the
fight.
Sunday, September 27
We all have our bad days. Sometimes
we deal with them by breathing deeply
and counting to 10, and sometimes we
unload on random cars with a squeegee
in the middle of the street. Jennifer
Williams unfortunately took the latter
route. Officers responded to the intersection of Foothill Boulevard and
Towne Avenue after they were alerted
to the 42-year-old Pomona resident
swinging at cars with a squeegee in the
southbound left turning lane on Towne.
When officers asked Ms. Williams why
she was lashing out in such a way, she
claimed an unknown man attacked her.
She declined to name or press charges
against her alleged assailant. When officers asked Ms. Williams how much
she had to drink, she held out her
thumb and index finger to indicated
about three inches. She was taken into
custody for public intoxication to spent
time in the drunk tank.

Two tailgates from two separate Ford
trucks were stolen around the same
time between late Sunday night and
early Monday morning. The first incident occurred on the 2400 block of
Bonnie Brae. Sometime during the
night, unknown thieves removed the
tailgate of a black F250 and made their
escape. The tailgate was valued at

$750. The same night, a group of unknown thieves stole the tailgate off an
F150, which was parked on the 2200
block of Brescia. The second Fords
tailgate was valued at $650. There have
been no leads on suspects. Anyone with
information should call Claremont police at (909) 399-5411.
Monday, September 28
In what could only be described as a
complete fiasco, officers responded to a
noise complaint on the 2100 block of
Grand to find a gentleman who did not
want to cooperate with police. The
man, identified as 40-year-old Jason
Rose of Upland, attempted to flee officers during a lawful detention. The officers chased Mr. Rose into a bathroom,
where a struggle ensued. Mr. Rose then
pulled out a concealed hunting knife,
which resulted in him getting the Taser
from one of the officers. To make matters worse, Mr. Roses girlfriend, identified as 45-year-old Angelica Vargas of
Claremont, approached an officer from
behind and grabbed him by the neck to
push him away. Both Mr. Rose and Ms.
Vargas were arrested and pinned with a
number of charges, including assault
with a deadly weapon, conspiracy to
commit assault on a police officer, conspiracy to commit assault and disrupting behavior.

CITY NEWS
City Engineer Maria Tipping speaks with Claremont resident Beverly Speak as her granddaughter Savannah Speak fills out a comment card on Monday during a
public meeting to review the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park Master Plan.
Ideas abound as city gets feedback on park master plan
laremont residents
were given the opportunity to engage with
the city on the specifics of the
Claremont Hills Wilderness
Park Master Plan Monday
evening.
The event was an effort to inform residents about the future of the park and
provide a venue for public comment.
Held at Taylor Hall, it was structured as
an open forum, with tables dedicated to
each part of the master plan set up
around the halls perimeter.
Claremont Public Information Officer
Bevin Handel praised the nontraditional
format. Were hoping it gets more of a
dialogue going, Ms. Handel said.
The event centered on the Claremont
Wildlands Conservancys response to
the citys massive master plan for the
CHWP. In a packet sent out prior to the
meeting, the CWC outlined what they
agreed and disagreed with in the plan.
For the majority of the response, the
CWC agreed with the city plan, lauding
its goals of enhanced public outreach,
creating a Friends of the CHWP group
and restricting parking along the south
end of Via Padova.
However, there were a few issues the
CWC had with the master plan, namely
Claremont resident Richard Chavez takes notes while reviewing the displays
during a public meeting to review the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park Master Plan.
Mr. Chavez is a resident of Adirondack Lane, which is directly across from the
parks main entrance.
the citys recommendation to change the

name from the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park to the Claremont Hills Wilderness Area. According to CWC President
Lissa Petersen, it makes no sense to rename the park as an area, claiming the
existing structures around the CHWP
designate it as a park.
Also at odds with the CWC was the

citys suggestion to raise the four-hour
daily parking fee from $3 to $5 and the
annual fee from $100 to $140.
If prices are raised, there will be more
low-income people from the region who
come to the park regularly who will find
it much harder to use the park, Ms. Pe-
tersen said. So when we support access,

raising the fees limits access.
Claremont Assistant City Manager
Colin Tudor claimed raising the prices
for access to the park is a necessity to
initiate changes outlined in the master
plan such as turnstiles at the entrance, a
spike strip in the parking lot, restrooms,
trail maintenance and park rangers
paychecks.
We were looking at how we can
drive more revenue so we have enough
money to pay for these enhancements on
an ongoing basis, Mr. Tudor said.
Throughout the event, Claremonters
were encouraged to engage with city
representatives who were stationed at
each booth. Comment cards by attendees were filled out and given to city officials for further review.
Were going to take all the comments
back and start looking at them, evaluating what we can go through, Mr. Tudor
said. Weve got a lot of really good
comments, a lot of insightful ideas, and
we want to go back and see what we can
change to make it a better plan.
This is the third community meeting
involving the master plan, another step
forward in crafting a concrete blueprint
that, according to the city and the CWC,
is meant to last at least 20 years.

Biting the collegiate hand

by John Pixley
ts a project that would violate the

character and destroy the history of
Claremont.
Thats not all. Heres the reason for the proposed location: somebody has a lot of money to put into a project and they want it to be in the most prominent
location with their name on it. In contrast, the stated
reason for locating it there are weak.
To top it off, if the man proposing the project truly
believes the proposed changes would not be a dramatic change, he must either be delusional or is lying.
Who is this guy? This shifty conniver out to pull one
over on Claremont. The guy who wants to pull the
wool over our eyes and sell Claremont, with all its rich
and unique history and character, down the river? What
is this big-money project, focused on a prime location,
that is being foisted on us? Who is going to violate
and destroy Claremont with their pet project?
It could be Walmartyes, Walmart, trying to build a
megastore in the Village. Yes, Walmart wants to put a
big-box emporium in the Village, and woe to the shops
left to try to compete. Or perhaps its a gas refinery or a
power plant. Or perhaps its General Motors wanting to
build a distribution centeror even a factory, heaven
forbidin Claremont.
It could be. Thats what it sounds like in the letter in
these pages about a month ago. But its not.
The man who must either be delusional or is lying
(either way, hes not someone to be relied on or trusted)
is David Oxtoby, the president of Pomona College.
And the project, which will violate the character and
destroy the history of Claremont, is a new art museum
the college wants to build.
More specifically, the college wants to raze the old,
small college-owned bungalows on the corner of College and Bonita Avenues behind the Claremont library
and build a new museum. The new museum will replace Montgomery Art Gallery, which is deemed outdated and cramped and will reportedly be torn down
along with the Thatcher Music Building next door on
the east side of College Avenue. The proposal has been
dubbed by one man as the Oxtoby Plan.
No, this isnt Walmart or an energy plant, but the letter-writer, Charles Hepperle, and others over the last
several months dont see much difference. They tend to
see and portray Pomona College and President Oxtoby
as a greedy and scheming entity with nefarious intentions to encroach on, if not invade, our town.
Although Mr. Hepperle questions the need for a new
museum, going so far as to say, This is a college art
Same to you!
observer
museum, not a world-class gallery of masterpieces,
most of the concern has been not about the new museum itself but about its placement on the west side of
College Avenue. As if in a desperate attempt to stop the
spread of a maleficent blob, those who have expressed
concern point out that there are only houses along the
west side of College Avenue south of Fourth Street,
with most suggesting that the museum be located
where there is a baseball field on the northeast corner
of College Avenue and First Street (handily pointing
out that the site isnt far from the Metrolink station).
Never mind that these houses and the land are owned
by Pomona College and mostly have institutional uses.
Pomona College isnt the only murky entity apparently out to have its dubious way with Claremont. In a
lengthy Viewpoint on the next page in the same August
28 COURIER edition, Claremont Lincoln University is
put under a harsh light and suspected of having less
than honorable intentions.
The new graduate school wants to expand and is
proposing to build on land owned by the Claremont
Unified School District next to La Puerta Sports Park.
In order for the plan to be feasible, according to CLU,
the school wants to switch, or flip, property with the
park so that it will have an Indian Hill Boulevard address. This, posits the writer, Tony Neilpovich Sr., is a
very bad idea.
Mr. Neilpovich not only presents a detailed list of the
hardships and inconveniences the plan would entail for
him and the other neighbors (bright lights, partying
after 9 p.m, remote-controlled aircraft with cameras,
view of public restrooms every time you open your
front door, etc.) He makes a point of saying that when
the schools architectural representive spoke about the
buildings height, either he was being disingenuous or
he was demonstrating a new form of comedy, which
is akin to saying Pomona Colleges President Oxtoby
must either be delusional or is lying.
It is also alleged that CLU is engaged in all of this
glad-handing, along with school district and city officials, which doesnt pass the smell test.
Is it not clear that the Colleges are some power-hungry entity that cant be trusted and is out to have its
way and take over Claremont? If not, Mr. Neilpovich

spells it out early in his piece: Some of the colleges in
Claremont may believe that they have enough clout
and leverage with the city to get what they want; perhaps they do, but not this time and not without a fight.
Really? The Colleges are an evil force with enough
clout and force to get what they want? So much so
that the rest of us have to fight them off? This is war,
with College Avenue roughly the line of battle? Really?
I wonder if many people remember, let alone miss,
the Woods. This was a small grove of trees behind
Pomona Colleges Carnegie Hall, north of Fourth
Street on, yes, the west side of College Avenue. When
the college proposed razing a number (but not all) of
the trees on this college-owned land to make way for
the Hahn building, there was considerable squawking,
with concern that the Village would be ruined. Now the
building is just part of the Village environs. And not
only is it surrounded by a good number of trees, I
would argue it is more attractive than the office building along First Street and the bunker-like library, which
replaced a previous charming building and which Mr.
Hepperle labeled brutalism-style in his letter. (No, it
didnt improve things when the copper band around the
exterior turned green, as was promised or rumored at
the time).
The same can be said about Claremont Graduate
Universitys Drucker buildinganother controversy
that isnt. There are plenty of others. And there was the
storm over the Bernard Field Station on the collegeowned land along Foothill Boulevard. Yes, there was a
fight, but the Colleges didnt really dig in their heels
and use their clout and leverage with the city to get
what they want. The Keck Institute settled in at another location. (This could be what happens in the CLU
case.)
It is hard to believe that the Colleges are out to take
over Claremont and to violate the character and destroy the history of Claremont. Wouldnt they want
Claremont to be a nice, unique, small college town that
is pleasant to live and work in?
After all, the Colleges are why Claremont is a nice,
unique, small town. They put Claremont on the map.
As Don Fisher pointed out in the same COURIER edition, the several Claremont Colleges are collectively
an intrinsic and integral part of our lovely town.
It goes without saying that the Colleges have much
invested in this and in being part of the character and
history of Claremont. Would they really mess it up?
CLAREMONT HERITAGE/page 15
Thank you, Roger Samuel

Dear Editor:
This is a posthumous thank you to
Roger Samuel of Claremont, our very own
extraordinary musician, director, conductor and founder of the Claremont Youth
Symphony Orchestra.
After attending his services a few weeks
ago, and finding no other information
about Roger in the weeks following, I feel
compelled to write this letter to thank him
and to let Claremonters know of Rogers
dedication to the youth in our town and in
the region.
It was in the 1970s that we met Roger,
when one of our daughters wanted to learn
to play the French horn. Roger took our
second grader and taught her the magic
and pleasure of playing the brass instrument; our other daughter was playing her
small violin.
Sometime in the early 1980s, Roger
started the Claremont Youth Symphony
Orchestra. Gary Ida, music director at
Claremont High School, helped secure
the band room at CHS for rehearsals each
week. Roger started this group with only
string instruments. Auditions were held
and string players were selected not only
from Claremont, but from surrounding
counties. Parents were committed to driving the distance to Claremont for weekly
rehearsals. This was a new concept for
area young musicians ages 8 to 20. After
a year or two, Roger added the brass sections and percussion to the Youth Orchestra. Yes, the French horn student passed the
audition and joined her violinist sister.
READERS COMMENTS
The beginning years included a concert or two at Little Bridges and at least
one opportunity annually to play a concert
with the adults in the Claremont Symphony. Roger added the Village Venture to
the venue for the young musicians. I still
remember each Village Venture included
young musicians playing on Harvard or
Yale Avenue for the entire day. And Roger
was always there, directing the ensemble.
The Village Venture performances continued for 20 to 30 years.
As years passed, and musicians graduated and went off to college, the yearly auditions continued to find more musicians.
The group grew and grew to resemble a
true Philharmonic Symphony Orchestra.
Rogerwith his wife Janet ever at his
side helpingplanned and executed numerous opportunitites for his young, large
group of musicians. They even had occasions to play with the Los Angles Philharmonic Orchestra. I could close my eyes
at the concert and believe the adult musicians were playing. The group was, and is,
that accomplished.
During later years, Roger arranged for
the group to travel to Europe to perform
with Philharmonics from other countries.
What an experience for the young musicians! I do not remember how many years
have passedmaybe 30 to 25 from the
onset of the string ensemblebut I do remember that Roger spent week after week
after week, dedicated to searching for per-
formance opportunities and directing our

youth to perfect their talents.
I sometimes wondered why Claremont
never recognized our own wonderful volunteer who dedicated decades to our
youth, and at least had he and his wife
Janet lead a Fourth of July parade. Sometimes recognition comes too late.
As a thankful parent, I just want to say,
Thank you, Roger!
Joyce Sauter
Yes on Measure PS
Claremont
Dear Editor:
For the past 12 years, city commissions
and citizen committees have explored options for constructing a new public safety
facility that is now overdue. While the existing police station has served us well for
over 40 years, the building is no longer
suitable for todays police operations.
The community cannot continue to ignore the fact that our police force operates
in a facility that does not meet current
building codes, including seismic safety
standards and the requirements of Americans with Disabilities Act. The police
service is too important for us to ignore.
We believe our community will join us
in expressing our appreciation for the service of our police department. With that
appreciation, we recognize it is time to
provide a new public safety facility that is
suitable for the departments needs. We
support the city councils unanimous decision to ask voters to approve an annual
$286 parcel tax measure on the November
3 ballot for funding the police facilitys
construction. Such a decision is never
taken lightly, but it is necessary to maintain
public safety service from a secure and
suitable facility.
With input from members of the public,
the council considered various funding
options and concluded that a parcel tax is
the most equitable option, because all nongovernment property owners including
residents, businesses, colleges, churches
and nonprofit organizations pay equally
for equal access to our police service.
We join the Public Safety Ad Hoc Committee, the Police Commission, the City
Council and the Chamber of Commerce in
their determination that now is the time to
fund a new facility. A yes vote on Measure PS will guarantee that our excellent
police service will be available to us in a
secure building for years to come. It is a
guarantee we deserve and must have.
Claremont is one of the safest communities in southern California. We want to
maintain this high standard by giving our
officers the space and tools they need to do
their job for us.
We appreciate the leadership the council has shown on this issue. By placing
Measure PS on the November 3 ballot, the
city council is giving residents a say in our
communitys security and well-being.
Having had the privilege to serve the
residents of Claremont, we understand
firsthand the difficult choices needed to
solve many issues facing the community.
This is one of those choices, but one we
must make in order to ensure our public
safety now and for future generations.
We support and urge a yes vote on
Measure PS on November 3, 2015.

Wilderness park master plan

Dear Editor:
I grew up in a small Midwest town.
Like most small towns throughout
America, the business district was deserted almost every weekday.
I remember just a few years ago we
were passing through one of the bigger
towns in Wyoming on Sidewalk Day,
and even though most of the stores had
tables on the sidewalk, the place was
eerily quiet with hardly a shopper in
sight. In contrast, some towns in the US
are more fortunate. They are located
near a big attraction like a national park
or seashore, and their businesses are
bustling with customers.
It is amazing to me to see Claremonts vibrant business district with so
many people that it is difficult to find a
parking space almost any day of the
week. The scene is far different in
neighboring cities. Im sure there are
multiple factors that create such a successful downtown, but I have a sense
that few people in Claremont appreciate the fact that our town also has a
major attraction, one that results in
about 500,000 visits a year. This, of
course, is the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park.
If only 10 percent of these park visits
result in someone patronizing a Claremont business, that would amount to
50,000 shoppers and diners a year.
There are hundreds of small towns that
would be delighted if they had an attraction that would generate as many
patrons for their businesses. This is
why it is so important that the city create a master plan that, among other
things, continues to encourage users to
visit the park. It is good for the city as a
whole. It seems odd that we havent
had much input from the Claremont
businesses with regards to the master
plan.
As a board member of the Claremont
Wildlands Conservancy for the past
year, I have been intimately involved
with the process of creating the citys
master plan for the park. I have attended many meetings of our group,
TAC meetings and neighborhood discussions. I also spent several hours
helping to survey park users last summer. I frequently hike in the park and
have read all of the letters written to the
COURIER.
There have been countless discussions about parking, preserving the en-
READERS COMMENTS
vironment, funding, bikers versus hikers, the need for restrooms and a myriad of other issues, all of which are
important. But while the city is trying
to assess the countless details involved
in the creation of the master plan, it
seems that nobody wants to step back
and take an overall look at the positive
impact the park has on Claremont as a
whole.
It is possible that decisions made by
the city council concerning the wilderness park could have implications affecting the prosperity of Claremont. For
example, the citys proposal in the draft
master plan to raise parking fees to $10
on weekend mornings might have a serious negative impact on how many
people from out of town visit the park.
This Congestion Pricing Program,
which is designed to redistribute visits,
may have the unintended consequence
of actually discouraging visitors instead
of redistributing them.
Its unfortunate that when surveys
were done of park users, there were no
questions designed to gauge how many
people visited Claremont businesses
before or after hiking or biking in the
park.
If decisions about park fees are primarily based upon the desire to placate
those Claremonters who would discourage visitors to the park, those decisions
may have harmful consequences for the
city as a whole. It would be far better to
first gather data concerning the economic impact park users have on the
city and then make decisions about
pricing rather than create policies with
unknown consequences.
It is also important to point out that if
the park continues to draw large numbers of regional users, especially from
underserved communities, it may be
very helpful in the future when attempting to qualify for valuable grants to expand the park and to implement the
resource management plan proposed in
the draft.
Finally, at the present time, the parking fees generate about $350,000 a year,
which represents the bulk of the funds
that support management of the park.
We must be careful not to put this current cash flow in jeopardy so that we
have adequate funds to properly main-
tain the park.

The Claremont Hills Wilderness Park
is an extremely valuable asset for our
community in many ways. A carefully
crafted master plan will be very important in ensuring the future prosperity of
Claremont and maintaining the success
of the park for years to come.

Police Commissioners urge

yes on Measure PS
Dear Editor:
The Claremont Police Commission
was formed in 2001 amidst tragedy and
controversy, but has since become a
model of responsible civilian oversight
in a city that prides itself on being responsive to community concerns. The
seven of us have been chairs of that
commission for more than 14 years and
we are proud of the progress that has
been made.
Although there is always more work
to be done, we believe that the Claremont Police Department now has
strong leadership, the highest professional standards and a department and
city staff that are open to input and always looking to improve. Claremont
should be proud of these achievements
and we are honored to have participated
in the process.
The police commission has been
aware from its beginnings that our police department was working in an
aging facility that was too small for the
current force and not able to utilize all
of the modern technology adopted by
the best police departments. For this
reason, we encouraged the city to move
forward with plans for a new police facility as soon as it was feasible.
Economic reversals intervened and
required all of us to adapt, but we are
pleased to hear that the city is now proposing to move forward with this important project. A parcel tax proposal
will be brought before the voters in November to address this need, and we
strongly support the plan.
Claremont deserves the best in law
enforcement, and that includes a modern police facility that will allow officers to respond to community needs for
the next several decades. We believe
that city officials have done careful

planning and have devised the fairest
possible financing proposal. We trust
that they will continue to work with the
community to design the right kind of
facility at the right price for this city.
We urge all those who will be voting
in November to support this process by
voting yes on Measure PS.

Has VW forfeited its rights?

Dear Editor:
The recent news that Volkswagen,
now the worlds largest auto manufacturer, has been intentionally and systematically defrauding both the
consumers of our state and the laws of
our state by installing software to defeat
anti-pollution measures is truly appalling.
These clearly intentional acts set this
particular big business wrongdoing
apart and separate from GMs and Toyotas recent screw ups.
VW may defend itself by saying, in
effect, Well, no one died because of
these actions. If so, this should be rejected out of hand. In an era of massive
climate change and the imperative that
we move beyond carbon as quickly as
possible, these actions by VW must be
seen in the larger context of the struggle
to shift from polluting to clean forms of
personal transportation.
In fact, VW, the damage you have
done is not only to your reputation, but
also to the integrity of the entire environmental movement. The disrespect
VW has shown for our laws and the importance we place on a livable state
make this a special case for California.
Should VW be allowed to get away
with it? Should just some monetary
fines and penalties be enough? I say no.
We should not waste this opportunity to
show ourselves and the world that California intends to be a global leader in
the clean tech and renewable energy
fields.
In this instance, we should make an
example of VW and ban this corporation
from doing all business in California in
the future. In effect, this would be a
death sentence for VW in California,
something they have earned and justly
deserve.

Why Measure PS isnt right

for Claremont
Dear Editor:
As Mayor Corey Calaycay stated in his
Viewpoint last week, the voters of Claremont will have the chance to decide on a
$50 million parcel tax for a large new police station.
The Claremont City Council selected a
parcel tax to finance this to ensure, as the
mayor alleges, that property owners, including churches, colleges and nonprofit
organizations, pay a fair share of the costs
because they benefit equally from police
services. The council misses the mark on
fairness.
The downside to a parcel tax is that
equality is based only on the parcel; for
example, the entire Super King shopping
center will pay the same as a single homeowner. Analysis of the parcel tax versus a
general obligation bond shows that 71
percent of the parcels in Claremont will
pay more per year with this parcel tax, and
48 percent will pay at least $100 more annually. Meanwhile, others will save thousands of dollars annually with three
commercial properties saving in excess of
$11,000 each per year.
I was surprised to see that city leaders
are including $3,789,500 in radio equipment over 40 years. Their financing
model reveals these radios will have a
total cost of ownership of $9,056,905.
Radio equipment is depreciated over five
years and has a useful life of seven years,
according to the IRS. Claremonters will
be paying for this asset more than 30 years
READERS COMMENTS
after it has been retired. This decision
means that the tax payments from 792
homes for those 30 years will be paying
off obsolete and retired assets.
The Measure CL school bond was defeated when voters realized that a significant portion of the money there would be
used for short-lived technology.
The mayor states that the police station
is to be 39,445 square feet, whereas the
staff report presented to council in March
states the building is to be 47,200 square
feet. The approved plan includes another
$2,135,000 support building of around
10,000 square feet, additional square
footage that Mayor Calaycay seems to
have overlooked.
Interestingly, the selected design is a
single-story building with a footprint as
nearly the size of a football field under
roof. The proposed station is 50 percent
larger than the station in Upland, which
has a population double the size of our
city. The Upland station was constructed
in 1989 and complies with the Essential
Services Seismic Act of 1986. When
erected, the population of Upland was 75
percent more than the current population
of Claremont. These factors point to a police station of less than half the size proposed, and more than double the present
size, as being appropriate for Claremont.
The selected parcel tax is financed over
40 years resulting in a total payout of
$119,500,000 or $11,440 per included

parcel. Re-scoping the police station and
tightening up the financing would offer
sizable savings at no real cost of service:
a $20 million plan would reduce this payout from $286 for 40 years to $128 over
30 years, saving each homeowner $6,320
over the life of the loan ($158 per year).
And the police station would be paid off
10 years earlier.
While we all might agree that the current police station situation needs improvement, in November youre asked to
decide if councils proposed $50 million
solution at $248,958 per month for 40
years is the one and only correct answer.
It is not.
The plan on the ballot this November
equates to $1,059 per square foot as compared to Montclairs station with all the
bells and whistles that was constructed
for $576 per square foot. If you, like me,
believe that we need improvement but
want a station for our actual needs at a
fraction of the price then you must vote
no on Measure PS.

Police station is a tax burden

Dear Editor:
The Claremont City Council is proposing to build a new police station.
The facility would be adjacent to the
underutilized city yard on Monte Vista,

across from the Claremont Club. The proposed size of this new edifice is 47,000
square feet, which seems like overkill to
me. It would cost approximately $50 million and be funded by a parcel tax, which
would affect every resident directly or indirectly to the tune of $286 per year for 40
years.
The city contends that there is not
enough space for operation, but we already have room for expansion at the
present location in the form of an underutilized impound yard.
We already are paying off $12.5 million for Johnsons Pasture, $49 million for
the Claremont Unified School District
and, if all goes as planned, are about to
start paying a new bond of $135 million
or more for the water rights to our city.
Crime is down, we have already spent
$591,000 for 12 new fully-equipped police cars and $2 million for a Mobile
Emergency Operations Unit complete
with a dispatch center out of city funds.
The city also contends that the existing
station doesnt meet earthquake standards
imposed long after the station was built.
In the event of such a catastrophe, the Mobile Unit would actually be used and operations would continue as usual while we
effected repairs.
I, for one, dont want this additional tax
burden, which would also fall on our children and grandchildren.

Doris Dee H. Pawley
OBITUARIES
Dedicated teacher, tireless volunteer

Doris Pawley, a longtime Claremont
resident, died on September 22, 2015 at
North Kansas City Hospital at the age
of 82. She was happy to be attending
her 60-year reunion at Park University
in Parkville, Missouri.
Doris, known to friends and family as
Dee, was born on August 12, 1933 in
Rhinebeck, New York to Florence and
Milton Houghton. After graduating
from Red Hook Central High School in
1951, she attended Park College in
Parkville, Missouri where she earned a
bachelors degree in political science in
1955. She acted as coordinator for the
Collegiate Council for the United Nations for Missouri, Kansas and Arkansas
from 1953-54. She received her teaching credential at the University of La
Verne in 1969 and earned a credential as
a language development specialist from
the University of Riverside in 1993.
Dee married Richard Pawley in 1955
at St. Marks Episcopal Church in Upland. The ceremony was officiated by
Reverend Frederick Shafer, Mrs. Pawleys former pastor from Barrytown,
New York. Their reception was at the
Shafer home at Dartmouth and Foothill
in Claremont. She worked for the Los
Angeles County Health Department as a
polio statistician while Rick was in
graduate school at UCLA. She followed

him to Olympia, Washington while he
was in the US Army and stationed at
Fort Lewis, Washington. The couple
moved to San Jacinto in 1958 and in
1963 settled in Claremont, where Mr.
Pawley taught at Claremont High
School.
Mrs. Pawley taught in the OntarioMontclair School District from 1970 to
2000, most of those years as a kindergarten teacher. Over the years, she
served with the Community Builders of
San Jacinto/Hemet, Womens Society of
the Methodist Church, the OntarioMontclair Teachers Association, the

Claremont High School Band Boosters
and the League of Women Voters of the
Claremont Area, acting as president of
the latter two organizations for several
years. She was also active with Delta
Kappa Gamma, Community Friends of
International Students and the Claremont Community School of Music, and
participated in the CLASP after-school
tutoring program. She was a partner in
the Claremont business The T Formation since 1980.
Dee traveled extensively, enjoying
trips to all 50 states as well as journeys
abroad to England, Scotland, Greece,
Turkey, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy,
Romania, Hungary, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Croatia, China, Thailand, Australia,
New Zealand, Peru, Mexico, Russia,
Costa Rica and the Caribbean. She left
this world doing what she loved to do,
traveling and visiting with family and
friends.
Dee was a devoted, loving and selfsacrificing wife, mother, grandmother,
great-grandmother, aunt, cousin, friend
and community servant, her loved ones
shared.
She was preceded in death by her
brother Ronald Houghton and her hus-
band of 56 years, Richard Rick Pawley.

She is survived by her sons and
daughters-in-law, Christopher and
Kelly Pawley of Norco and Jeffrey and
Lise Pawley of Orcutt, California; her
daughter and son-in-law, Pamela and
Jerry Cottrill of Oklahoma City; her
grandchildren Kevin and Alysa Pawley,
Rachael and Cesar Solis, Drew Cottrill,

Pawley. She also leaves three greatgrandchildren, Remington Cash Pawley, Obadiah James Solis and Raeghan
Reese Pawley, several nieces and
nephews, numerous other extended
family members and many others who
called her mom, grandma and
friend.
A memorial service will be held on
Friday, October 2 at 11 a.m. at the

Carol Furth Sontag
12
OBITUARIES
Theater namesake, gracious hostess

Carol Sontag, a longtime Claremont
resident, died on September 12, 2015.
She was 91.
She was born Carol Ann Furth on
January 8, 1924 in Woodland, California, the third child and only daughter of
Victor and Valance Furth of Winters,
California in Yolo County. She was a
third-generation native Californian, her
great-grandparents having migrated
west during the Gold Rush.
She was raised on the ranch in Winters owned by her father and grandfather, Furth and Furth Orchards, where
they grew apricots and almonds. As a
girl, she helped in the drying yards,
watching over the muslin sheets where
apricot halves were laid to dry in the
hot California sun.
The Furth family left the ranch and
moved to Berkeley, where Carol graduated from Berkeley High. She went on
to attend the University of California,
as had her parents and much of her
family, living in the Tri Delta house on
campus and becoming president of the
Delta Delta Delta sorority. She was
named a senior standout, an honor accorded for outstanding academic performance.
After graduating with a degree in
public speaking in 1945, she spent the
summer working at Fallen Leaf Lodge,
now Stanford Lodge on Fallen Leaf
Lake. There she met her future husband, Frederick Sontag, who was also
working at the camp during his summer
break from Stanford University.
Courtship led to marriage and, following a wedding ceremony in Piedmont,
California on June 10, 1950, they
moved immediately to New Haven,
Connecticut where Fred went to earn
his PhD at Yale. Mrs. Sontag was a
meticulous speller and, having worked
in the registrars office while at Cal
where she learned shorthand and perfected her typing skillstyped all of
Dr. Sontags graduate papers at Yale as
well as the dissertation for his PhD.
In 1952 the couple moved across the
country to Claremont, where Dr. Sontag had accepted a post as professor of
philosophy at Pomona College. They
moved into a college-owned house on
the corner of College Avenue and 7th
Street, now site of the Seeley G. Mudd
Science Center. They were joined by a
son, Grant Furth, on March 19, 1955,
followed by a daughter, Anne Burnett,
on May 14, 1956.
The growing family moved to a new
tract home above Foothill Boulevard in
what was a former orange grove at 713
Cedarview Drive. From there, Dr. Sontag biked to the college every day, taking first Grant and then Anne to Mary
B. Eyre Nursery School while Mrs.
Sontag kept up the home. She also volunteered as a Gray Lady for the
American Red Cross, and worked parttime as a secretary in Pomonas history
department and elsewhere on campus.
In 1958-59, the Sontag family enjoyed the first of several wonderful sojourns while Fred was on sabbatical at
Union Theological Seminary in New

York City. In 1960 the Sontags took up
residence in a beautiful vintage home at
1120 N. Indian Hill Blvd. in the Claremont Village, the setting for many a
wonderful dinner party hosted by Fred
and Carol.
Mrs. Sontag was an accomplished
cook and, during a sabbatical year in
Paris in 1973-74, she and Anne even
took some classes at the famed Cordon
Bleu, sharing their culinary delights
with a steady flow of guests grateful for
a warm welcome and delicious meal.
She loved to plan dinner parties, cook,
and entertain guests in styleoften including Pomona students, faculty and
alumni.
Her care extended to the smallest detail, and she added to the table decorations she had made or silver pieces she
had crafted working alongside College
friends Jean Platt and Masago Armstrong, under the tutelage of silversmith
Catherine Bruce. There wasnt a craft
in which Carol couldnt excel. She was
gifted at needlepoint, knitting and embroidery, and her pillows and framed
pieces adorned their beautiful home.
Unstinting in her generosity, she also
shared her handiwork as gifts, along
with products from her kitchen and
handmade cards.
The Sontags loved to travel, often in
conjunction with Dr. Sontags scholarly
work, and during their lifetime they visited every continent except Antarctica
and every state except Alaska. In addition to New York and Paris, Mrs. Sontag set up homes in Rome and Kyoto
and, of course, they entertained itinerant Pomona students in every locale.
Carol always found a way to coax a
dinner party even out of a cramped
kitchen. Perhaps her favorite destination was Cambridge, England where
Fred was at one point a scholar-in-residence at Jesus College. Mrs. Sontag
loved the Gothic architecture, the flowers in the courtyards and going to hear
the famous Kings College Choir.
The Sontags shared a love of classical music and were season ticket holders to the LA Philharmonic, the LA
Chamber Orchestra and the Hollywood
Bowl, often taking their children to
these venues as well as to many theater
performances in the Los Angeles area.

Carol served on the Foothill Philharmonic Committee for decades, raising
money for the orchestra. She was also
active in the Curtain Raisers, supporting productions at Claremonts Garrison Theater. Dr. and Mrs. Sontag
enjoyed attending concerts at Pomona
or the Congregational Church where
they were members throughout their
lives.
In the 1970s, Fred and Carol took up
tenancy in Pomonas Harwood Court as
faculty residents, providing yet another
generation of Pomona students with
their warm welcome and gracious hospitality. They were honored as a couple
during their lifetime through the generous gifts of Pomona alumni, who made
possible in 1997 the dedication of the
Sontag Greek Theatre on campus.
In 1998 the Sontags relocated for the
last time to Pilgrim Place, where they
enriched the retirement community by
their presence and were able to extend
friendships going back decades as well
as to establish new ones. Carol made
friends readily and was always interested in discussing the news of the day,
a recent performance she had attended
or the scores of her favorite sports
teams. She was proud of the accom-
plishments achieved by her husband,

children and grandchildren.
She was a talented, gracious and
well-loved woman, dedicated to her
family and her community, family
shared.
Mrs. Sontag was predeceased by her
husband Frederick, her brothers Gordon and Alan Furth, her sister-in-law
Nina Furth and her nephew Andrew
Furth.
She is survived by her son Grant of
Mountain View; her daughter and sonin-law, Anne and Paul Karch of Madison, Wisconsin; and her grandchildren,
Rachel, Lydia and Chas Karch (Sally).
She also leaves her sister-in-law Virginia Furth of Oakland and nieces
Wynne Furth (Don Brenneis) of Palo
Alto and Amy Furth of Seattle, all of
whom she loved dearly.
A memorial service will be held on
November 21, 2015 at 3 p.m. in Decker
Hall at Pilgrim Place. Memorial contributions may be made to Foothill Philharmonic, Pomona College, Pilgrim
Place or VNA Hospice of Southern
California, which provided care in
Carols final days.

Roger Samuel

OBITUARIES
Claremont Young Musicians Orchestra director, beloved mentor

Roger Samuel, a longtime Claremont resident who
made an enormous impact on countless budding musicians, died on August 29, 2015 after a 17-year battle
with prostate cancer. He was 72.
He was born on October 27, 1942 in Los Angeles
to James and Ruth Samuel.He attended Marshall
High School in Los Angeles and also marched as a
young trombonist in the Hollywood Sons of the
American Legion Band, where he met his future wife
Janet. They attended California State University, Los
Angeles and received degrees in music education.
The couple was married in 1964 and had three children,all of whom were inspired by their parents love
for music and now work in music as teachers, performers and administrators.
For 38 years, Mr. Samuel served as a music teacher
and music coordinator in the Azusa Unified School
District, until his retirement in 2003. He was also a respected trombone instructor and clinician as well as
an active performer throughout southern California.
In 1989, the Samuels founded the Claremont
Young Musicians Orchestra (CYMO), which continues today to teach, inspire and serve 170 young musicians each year.Roger was the music director and
conductor of the orchestras until his death.
Over the years, membership in the Claremont
Young Musicians Orchestra has provided its young
participants with unforgettable experiences as well as
a strong musical foundation. These include regular
concerts presented in Bridges Auditorium at Pomona
College as well as memorable travel opportunities.
The Samuels led delegations of 100 teen musicians
on tours of Europe four times over the years. During

the latest trip, held in 2013, the orchestra performed at
venues like the Mozarteum in Salzburg, Austria,
Schleissheim Castle in Munich and the Teatro Verdi
in Padua, Italy.
Claremont resident Cindy Fan has wonderful memories of her time in the Claremont Young Musicians
Orchestra, where she served as concertmaster for a
couple of years. She went on to major in music at
Yale and is now a private violin teacher.
Mr. Samuels guidance was one of the strongest
musical forces in my life, Ms. Fan said. He poured
out his love and his energy into all of us, and it definitely shaped me as a musician. I cant say enough
about what hes done for all of us. Anyone who has
played under his baton was really changed for the better.
Larry J. Livingston is chair of the department of
conducting at the USC Thornton School of Music. He
counts himself as fortunate to have known Mr.
Samuel and his family for three decades. He has enjoyed many a CYMO concert and even, on occasion,
has served as a guest conductor. Mr. Samuel, he said,
was a true gift to the community.

First of all, he had the most important attribute of
a music educator. Although the music was vitally important, it was the children that mattered most. He had
a deep caring for them, Mr. Livingston said. He
also had boundless energy. Even when he was struggling and dealing with cancer, he remained vital and
alive.
Of course, Mr. Samuel considered it an achievement when one of his students grew up to be a professional musician, as many have. But he saw all students time with the CYMO as critically important,
even if they pursued other careers.
He wanted everyone in his group to be sufficiently
inspired that they would continue playing music, no
matter what profession they went into, Mr. Livingston said. He wanted them to be good audiences,
and to treasure the central place of music in their
lives.
On the CYMO Facebook page, there is a notice letting orchestra members and alumni and their families
know about the passing of Mr. Samuel. The post received nearly 100 comments, sending love to the
Samuel family and lavishing praise on the late music
educator. These include a tribute by former Claremont
Young Musicians Orchestra member RoseJeanWeller.
Mr. Samuel lived life the way many strive
to...making an immense, wonderful, positive and resonant impact on thousands of young musicians. What
a gift it was to have him our lives, she wrote. I
learned so many things about music, and life, from
my time being mentored by him. Hes left a profound
and prolific influence in all our lives.
Fermata in peace, she concluded, referring to a
symbol of musical notation indicating that the length
of a note should be prolonged.
Mr. Samuel is survived by his wife Janet Samuel
and their children, Greg Samuel, Gail Samuel and her
husband William Christian, and Brent Samuel and his
wife Shirley Ho.He also leaves his grandchildren,
Samuel and Orlando Christian and Zoey and Maya
Samuel, as well as a sister, Pat Brown.
The funeral for Roger took place on September 11
at Our Lady of the Assumption Church in Claremont,
where he was a parishioner for nearly 40 years.He is
buried in Oak Park Cemetery.Memorial contributions
may be made to the Claremont Young Musicians Orchestra (PO Box722, Claremont, CA 91711) and the
USC Norris Westside Cancer Center (9033 Wilshire
Blvd., Ste 300, Beverly Hills, CA 90211).

Mission to Modern: 33rd annual Claremont Heritage home tour

by John Neiuber
To us, our house was not insentient matterit had

a heart and a soul and eyes to see us with; and approvals and solicitudes and deep sympathies; it was
of us, and we were in the peace of its benediction. We
never came home from an absence that its face did
not light up and speak out its eloquent welcomeand
we could not enter it unmoved. Samuel Clemens
he 33rd Annual Claremont Heritage Home Tour, Mission to Modern: Residential Architecture
1900-1940s that influenced Modernism,
that will take place on Sunday, October
11, features six of Claremonts finest
homes that epitomize Samuel Clemens
words. They are not only significant architecturally, but also for the people associated with the homes that shaped the
history and culture of the city.
The Wright House, a California Craftsman, the

home of Andrew and Blenda Wright, was built by
Mary R. Darling in 1903. It has the distinction of
being the only home in Claremont designed by
Charles and Henry Greene, and the first home they
built outside of Pasadena. It was also their first home
to receive international recognition and was published

in Academy Architecture in 1903. The structure was
the first to demonstrate elements that would become
their signature style. It was the first home where they
designed the total environment that included the lighting, decorations and furniture. Extensively renovated
by the Wrights beginning in 2007, the home demonstrates the delicate balance of restoring and preserving
an historic structure while renovating it to meet
todays lifestyle requirements.
The Neiuber House, a Transitional Craftsman, the
home of Karen and John Neiuber, was built in 1908
by Winfield and Katie Palmer. Palmer was a rancher,
president of the Claremont National Bank, manager
of The College Heights Orange and Lemon Association and president of the Town Committee, precursor
to a mayor and city council. In the 1920s, Dr. Morrill
and Mrs. Mary Ilsley purchased the home. Dr. Ilsley
served as the college physician and Mary Ilsley
headed up the tree-planting program in the city for
many years. The Neiubers purchased the home in
2003, and did extensive restoration and renovations in
2004 and 2005. Over the last four years, the entire
first floor has been restored using historic photographs.
The Baker House, a Spanish Colonial Revival, the
home of Francine and William Baker, was built in
1926 by Grace Thomas. The home was designed by
Pasadena architect, H.L. Martin. In the 1920s, the
Spanish Revival was the most fashionable housing
style of the day and this house is a perfect example of
the vernacular with its stucco walls, red tile roof and
arched windows and doors. The interior features the
original Batchelder-tiled fireplace, hardwood floors,
crown molding and curved wrought-iron stairway.
The Bakers purchased the home in 1991 and performed extensive sympathetic restoration, balancing
historic renovation while updating the home to modern living. Mrs. Baker served for many years as the
city of Claremonts arts coordinator, and the Bakers
are members of the advisory council of the Ruth
Chandler Williamson Gallery at Scripps College.
The Scripps College House, a Spanish Colonial
Revival, the home of Charlotte Johnson, dean of students at Scripps, was built in 1927 by Edward Ware.
It was described at the time in a Claremont
COURIER article as one of the finest new homes
that has been started in Claremont. The homes historic name is from Louise Padelford, a French professor at Scripps College, who purchased the house in
the 1960s. She hosted many Asian religious leaders at
the home, and the Buddhist statuary and Japanese
screens that were once part of the dcor now reside in
the Scripps permanent collection. The home is in
keeping with the style with very few exterior changes
over the years. It features textured stucco walls, varying window sizes, a red tile roof and wooden-railed
balconies, which is a nod to the Monterrey variant of
the style.
The Bassman House, built in 1938 in the International Style by artist Milford Zornes, is the home of
Lori Bassman, and was designed by Swedish architect, Carl Tooedsson. He taught at USC and later
practiced in Los Angeles after World War II, where he
became internationally known. The home is listed in
An Architectural Guide to Los Angeles, by David
Gebhard and Robert Winter, where it is listed as A
sophisticated International Style essay in brick and
glass. The home was featured in Architectural
Record in 1941, and in The American Home magazine in 1944, where it was described as $6000 Worth
of Sunshine. Milford Zornes, who studied and later
taught at Pomona College, lived there when he designed the mural for the Claremont Post Office. He
went on to become one of the most prominent members of the California Watercolor School.
The Houy Haus, a Modern Neo-Georgian, the
home of Tina and Markus Houy, was built in 1941 by
Arthur G. Coons, a professor at Scripps College.
What makes this house unique is that it is a Modernist
reinterpretation of the classical form, much in the
same manner that Millard Sheets reinterpreted classicism at the Garrison Theater at Scripps. This can be
seen in the slender columns at the front of the house
where the door is capped by the traditional broken
pediment, but in a scale purposefully out of proportion.
Purchased in 2009, the Houys have undertaken
major renovations while maintaining the Georgian design. The front facade was moved forward to add a
more formal entry. The kitchen was completely remodeled, a den was added, as were his and hers
offices and the master bedroom and bath were enlarged.
In Samuel Clemens words, these homes are not
insentient matter. They, and those who occupied
them, have contributed to the sense of place that is
Claremont. We are shaped and molded by the places
we live, oftentimes not realizing it until later, and
upon reflection. The memories of the houses and
rooms in which life events happened remain with us,
and those memories help to define us and inform our
lives and values.

laremont High School cross-country coach

Bill Reeves may be a man of few words,
but he certainly got the message across to
his runners: go for the team win over individual
results.
And thats exactly what happened as the
SPORTING
Wolfpack swept the second Palomares
LIFE
League meet on Tuesday at Bonelli Regional
Park, even though the highest varsity place was second.
The boys varsity team ran in a very tight pack for the first 10
or 12 minutes, with five Claremont runners joined by a pair
from Ayala and Bonita as well as one Diamond Bar runner.
However, in the final push for the finish Ayalas Steven Kahn
picked up the pace, forcing the rest to chase. In the end Kahn
came in first at 15:13, followed by Claremonts Ryan Renken at
15:15 and Ayalas Gavin Bradley at 15:28. The next highest
place for the Pack was Tab Backman who took seventh at 15:48,
but Claremont also got five of the next six places, clinching the
team title. The final score was Claremont 36, Bonita 53 and
Ayala 60.
The girls varsity race was remarkably similar, with the top
runners largely sticking together and pacing themselves for the
finish. This time it was Bonitas Kelsey Creese who eventually
broke away, taking first at 18:16 followed by Ayalas Sydney
Tullai at 18:21 and Claremonts Annie Boos at 18:27. Again the
team tactic worked for Claremont as they snatched six of the
next nine spots and the overall victory: Claremont 27, Ayala 59
and Bonita 66.

Before the Bell Gardens game, Claremont High School honored former football coach Mike Collins for his 20 years
leading the Wolfpack and 30 years in
coaching. As Mr. Collins stood on the
50-yard-line with his wife Laura and son
Troy, the announcer read a biography of
the former coachs accomplishments

stood behind him.
After the ceremony, Mr. Collins participated in the ceremonial coin toss and

SPORTING LIFE/from previous page
Claremont High School has five runners in the pack of leaders during the boys varsity race which was key to their team win. Ryan Renken, right, makes it look easy
on his way to second place.
atching the girls junior varsity race, one might have

though Claremont was the
only team that showed up, at least for
those watching the front of the race. In
all, the massive girls JV team took 17 of
the top 20 places including the top nine
spots led by Alyssa Cantrells first-place
finish at 19:24, Kyla Morris at 19:39
and Sarah Ayala at 19:52.
The meet got off to a hectic start because the timing personnel accidentally
went to the wrong location, causing an
hour delay. As a result, the freshman,
sophmore and junior varsity boys races
were combined in an effort to save time,
yielding one massive pack of competitors.
With all of those runners out on the
course even the coaches were a bit confused.
I cant tell if we are winning, said
Coach Reeves as the bulk of the runners
passed during the first of two laps.
But win they did, with Sergio Es-
pinoza taking first in the JV race at

16:29, followed by Ayalas Andrew
Martinez at 16:42 and Claremonts
Jacob Gomez at 16:47. The Pack also
had seven of the top 10 places for the
team victory.
As he waited for the timing crew to
arrive Coach Reeves elaborated on his
overall plan for the meet.
With the Packs top finish in the first
league meet, Coach Reeves told his
team, They will be coming after us, so
youve got to come out and race.
At the same time he warned them,
You can only go to the well so many
times, a euphemism for going all-out
in an effort to take a top spot.
Instead, he told the athletes to save
their energy for the league finals and
then go for the personal win.
Next up for cross-country is the Clovis Invite on October 10.

ceramic sculpture by Jackie Marsh.
Marsh produces small scale figures
decorated with gestural carvings and
loosely applied glazes. These delightful and sometimes ambiguous creatures exude a sense of Buddha-like
contentment, which leaves the viewer
longing to spend time with them.
Their palm-sized scale encourages
handling and the intimate engagement
of a teacup. In fact, many of these
creatures combine animal with vessel
to make hybrid forms, which are
reminiscent of traditional face jugs or
pre-Colombian pottery. Reception:

Love, passion motivate new shop for longtime Claremont merchant
o local merchant
Brenda Ricciardi, Bottega 25 is a true labor of
love. To understand why, one
has to look at what she has
been through to get here.
The tiny home dcor shop, tucked

away in a corner of Claremonts Packing House, has been open for more than
a year. Every corner of the space is
adorned with charming knick-knacks
from across the world, primarily the
United Kingdom and Italy.
I wanted an Italian and Euro-type of
name, and bottega means artist gallery
or boutique or artist workshop, Ms.
Ricciardi said. So it was perfect.
Despite the relative newness of Bottega 25, Ms. Ricciardi has been a Village mainstay for many years prior
through her previous shop, Three
French Hens. Together with her dear
friend, local real estate agent Catherine
Shelton, Ms. Ricciardi shopped for fascinating pieces from around the world
and brought all of it to the City of
Trees.
Disaster struck in August of 2010,
when Ms. Shelton died in a tragic auto
accident in front of Three French Hens
on First Street.
According to reports from the
COURIER, Ms. Ricciardi and Ms.
Shelton were exiting an SUV when it
lurched forward, striking Ms. Shelton.
It slammed into two light poles and a
bench before stopping near the entrance
to Bua Thai Cuisine. Ms. Shelton died a
short time later at Pomona Valley Medical Center.
Ms. Ricciardi herself was injured
while trying to get the careening car to
stop. She was devastated by the loss of
her closest friend, and slowly withdrew
from her duties at her store, shuttering
it a year later.
I closed Three French Hens because
it was very, very difficult to be in that
space, Ms. Ricciardi said. And just,
every day the memories of what happenedit was really difficult. I just
couldnt go into the shop because of
that. It didnt feel the same anymore. I
wasnt happy. It wasnt a happy place.
Ms. Ricciardi stayed away from retail for nearly three years, resigning
herself to giving up on her dream.
She eventually connected with and
married her husband, Mario Ricciardi.
She credits Mr. Ricciardi, a local orthodontist, with lighting the spark under
her to open up another shop.
We were having dinner one day and
he said, Why dont you do what you
love? Why dont you go open a shop?
Ms. Ricciardi said. And I said, I just
dont want to start the whole Three
French Hens thing again. And he said,
Just do it.
The name Bottega 25 has a personal
significance; the term bottega was chosen to reflect the stores new Italian-inspired theme, and the number 25
reflects the date Brenda and Mario
were married.
someones living room or an artists

loft. Walls are covered with Italian
paintings that hearken back to the
1940s and 1950s, gleaming chandeliers
are tastefully stationed throughout the
room and, most prominently, a sign
adorning the right wall reads, Life is
beautiful, which serves as the shops
thesis statement.
The space feels much better, Ms.
Ricciardi said. It just feels like one
good, happy, nice, beautiful space.
She opened the shop without much
advertising, hoping she would go under
the radar and not be connected to Three
French Hens. Claremonters immediately recognized her and her signature
style, however, and embraced Ms. Ricciardi with open arms.
Thats the best thing about Claremont, she said with a smile. Its a
wonderful community and the people
are lovely.
Brenda Ricciardi opened the home decoration store Bottega 25 about a year ago
in the Packing House. However Ms. Ricciardi is no stranger in the Village, having
owned Three French Hens for years.
The tile artwork of Washington state-based Sid Dickens is one of the featured products at Bottega 25.
For the newly-christened Bottega 25,

Ms. Ricciardi wanted to go in a completely new direction, freeing herself
from the memories of her last enterprise. But that wasnt exactly what happened.
I had a completely different vision
for what Bottega 25 would be. And

Bottega 25 is almost exactly the same
as Three French Hens, Ms. Ricciardi
said, laughing. So its just in my
blood.
When you walk into Bottega 25, you
get the sense that youre entering into
s. Ricciardi has big

plans for her store in
the months going
forward. In December, she
plans to open up her basement
for weekly classes and workshops involving painting and
designing different types of
furniture. She is also working
out a deal with Annie Sloan, a
top-of-the-line decorative paint
supplier from the United Kingdom.
With the help of her husband, as well
as her trusted employees, Ms. Ricciardi
is reclaiming her status as a shopkeeper
and a member of Claremonts thriving
business community.
After all the circumstances that happened, I thought it was donethat it
was all over, Ms. Ricciardi said. And
now that I created Bottega 25, its very
special.
Still, she will never forget her friendship with Catherine Shelton.
Every day I think about her, she
said. I think that shes a big part of
everything I do.

Pitzer hosts candidate with big American dreams
artin OMalley
spoke at Pitzer College last Thursday,
vowing to the Benton Auditorium crowd to rebuild the
truth of the American dream.
Mr. OMalley, the former governor of
Maryland and Democratic presidential
candidate, spoke to a packed house of
Claremont Colleges students and community members in an event that was
half stump speech and half open Q&A
He opened his speech with a light jab
at fellow Democratic candidates Hillary
Clinton and Bernie Sanders, indicating
thathis party pedigree has greater purity
than his opponents.
I am not a former Republican, Mr.
OMalley said. I am not a former Independent. I am not a socialist. I am a Democrat, and I am running for president
of the United States.
The Pitzer College Student Senate
helped to put the event together, specifically through the work of students Josue
Pasillas, Andrew Lydens and Chance
Kawar.
I am not a former Republican, Mr. OMalley said. I

am not a former Independent. I am not a socialist. I
am a Democrat and I am
running for president of
the United States.

Democratic presidential candidate Martin OMalley greets Claremont College students following his speech on Friday at
Pitzer College. Mr. OMalleys talk outlined his progressive political platform including reigning in college tuition debt,
generating all electricity from renewable sources and implementing public financing for congressional races.
ccording to Mr. Pasillas, Governor OMalley is the first presidential candidate to speak at
Pitzer while on the campaign trail in the
colleges 50-year history.
Im really excited, he said. We
were talking about engaging the students
more about the election process and
civic engagement and were like, Why
not bring an actual presidential candidate to campus? So Im glad it happened.
Mr. OMalley touched on his 15-part
platform, sharing his thoughts on immigration, higher education and gun control.
Im the only candidate in this race
who has 15 years of executive experience, Mr. OMalley said, saying he is
the best candidate to forge a new consensus.
After his speech, Mr. OMalley
opened the floor to queries from students. Topics included the Syrian
refugee crisis, transgender rights, veterans affairs and how Mr. OMalley differs from other candidates such as Mr.
Sanders and Ms. Clinton.

Some of the loudest applause came
when the presidential hopeful made his
stance on immigration perfectly clear.
The enduring symbol of America is
not the barbed wire fence, but the Statue
of Liberty, Mr. OMalley said. I am
not for building walls.
After the event, Mr. OMalley spoke
to the COURIER about an ongoing controversy in Democratic circlesthe decision by the Democratic National
Committee to limit the schedule to six
debates during the long primary season.
Many Democrats have expressed concern that the relatively small number of
debates would favor better-known candidates such as Ms. Clinton. Mr. OMalley did not mince words when asked his
opinion on the DNCs decision.
I dont think its good for the country, he said. I think its not good for the
party to let the Republican debates go
unanswered.
In fact, Mr. OMalley said, most of
the rank and file members of his party
have expressed outrage, calling the small
number of debates an undemocratic
decision.
So well see. Hopefully, there will be
more responsible members of the party
who will rise up and fix this. In the
meantime, Im going to do my very best

to promote my candidacy the best I
can.
After the event, Mr. Lydens discussed
what this event meant for the students at
Pitzer and neighboring colleges.
I think its great. We are promoting
this educated global community, because we have a knowledge and we
have this open dialogue with so many
different leader of the world and leaders
of communities and we can really grow
as world citizens, Mr. Lydens said. So
I think it means a lot.

personal representative appointed by the court
within the later of either (1) four months from

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 estate, you may file with the court a Request
for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of

to sell at public auction certain tax-defaulted properties
which are subject to the Tax Collector's power to sell.
Public notice is hereby given that unless said properties
are redeemed prior thereto, I will, on Monday, October
19, 2015, and Tuesday, October 20, 2015, at the hour of
9:00 a.m. at the Fairplex Los Angeles County Fairgrounds, 1101 W. McKinley Avenue, Building 6,
Pomona, California, offer for sale and sell said properties at public auction to the highest bidder for cash or
cashier's check in lawful money of the United States for
not less than the minimum bid. If no bids are received
on a parcel, it will be re-offered at the end of the public
auction at a reduced minimum bid.
The minimum bid for each parcel is the total amount
necessary to redeem, plus costs, as required by Section 3698.5 of the Revenue and Taxation Code.
Any unimproved properties that are not sold at the end
of the public auction on
October 20, 2015, or redeemed prior to 5:00 p.m. (PT)
December 4, 2015, I will re-offer for sale beginning
Monday, December 7, 2015, at 10:00 a.m. (PT)
through Wednesday,
December 9, 2015, at 12:00 p.m. (PT) at online auction at
www.bid4assets.com/losangeles.
Prospective bidders should obtain detailed information of Sale No. 2015A from the County Treasurer and
Tax Collector. Pre-registration and a $5,000 deposit in
the form of cash, cashier's check or bank issued money
order is required at the time of registration. The TTC
will not accept personal checks, two-party checks or
business checks for registration. Registration will be
from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., beginning Monday, September 14, 2015, at the Treasurer and Tax Collector's
Office located at 225 North Hill Street, Room 130, Los
Angeles, California, and will end Friday, October 2,
2015, at 5:00 p.m.
Pursuant to R&TC Section 3692.3, the TTC sells
all property ``as is`` and the County and its employees are not liable for any known or unknown
conditions of the property, including, but not limited
to, errors in the assessor's records pertaining to improvement of the property.
If the property is sold, parties of interest, as defined by
R&TC Section 4675, have a right to file a claim with the
County for any proceeds from the sale, which are in excess of the liens and costs required to be paid from the
proceeds. If there are any excess proceeds, the TTC will
send notice to the parties of interest, pursuant to law.
All information concerning redemption, provided
the right to redeem has not previously been terminated, will upon request be furnished by JOSEPH
KELLY, Treasurer and Tax Collector.
According to law, if the property is not redeemed by the
close of business on the last business day prior to the
date of the auction, Friday October 16, 2015, at 5:00
p.m., the property will be offered for sale. If the property is not sold at the public auction, the right of redemption will revive and remain until Friday, December
4, 2015, at 5:00 p.m. If the property is not redeemed by
Friday, December 4, 2015, at 5:00 p.m., it will be scheduled for the follow-up online auction as indicated above.
The Assessor's Identification Number (AIN) in this publication refers to the Assessor's map book, the map page,
and the individual parcel number on the map page. If a
change in the AIN occurred, both prior and current AINs
are shown. An explanation of the parcel numbering system and the maps referred to are available from the Office of the Assessor located at 500 West Temple Street,
Room 225, Los Angeles, California 90012.

SUMMARY OF ORDINANCE
INTRODUCED AT THE REGULAR
CLAREMONT CITY COUNCIL MEETING
OF SEPTEMBER 22, 2015
(Full text of these ordinances is on file in the
office of the City Clerk and in the document
archives on the City website:
www.ci.claremont.ca.us)
SUMMARY OF THE ORDINANCES
AMENDING TITLES 5 AND 16 OF THE
CLAREMONT MUNICIPAL CODE AND
AMENDING TABLE 2 IN SECTION 2.3.3 OF

THE VILLAGE EXPANSION SPECIFIC
PLAN REGARDING MASSAGE BUSINESSES, ESTABLISHMENTS, PRACTITIONERS,
TECHNICIANS,
AND
THERAPISTS
The ordinances make amendments to Title 5
(Business Regulation) and Title 16 (Zoning).
The amendments to Title 16 (Zoning) and the
Claremont Village Expansion Specific Plan are as
follows:
1. The ordinance includes the addition of Chapter
16.099 to Title 16 and an amendment to the Claremont Village Expansion Specific Plan use chart
to add a requirement for a Conditional Use Permit
and to restrict the zones in which massage businesses are permitted. All new and existing businesses will be required to obtain a Conditional
Use Permit within one year from the effective
date of the ordinance.
2. The Commercial Neighborhood (CN), Commercial Freeway (CF), and Mixed-Use 1 (MU1)
zoning districts will no longer permit massage
businesses. Two businesses will be considered
non-conforming and be given a one-year amortization period.
3. Massage businesses in the Business/Industrial
park district will only be allowed with a Conditional Use Permit if massage services are ancillary to a gym, health club, yoga studio, pilates
studio, or other similar use.
The amendments to Chapter 5.36 (Business Regulations) are as follows:
1. The exemptions section has been revised to address massage administered in direct connection
with medical uses, schools and events, coaches,
and trainers employed by accredited high school,
community colleges, or universities while performing under the scope of their employment.
2. Requirement for each massage business to
maintain an employment list.
3. A list of massage services and cost of such services shall be clearly posted in an open and conspicuous place in the lobby area of the business.
4. A registry of all employees shall be kept and
maintained for inspection by representatives of
the City.
5. Each massage establishment or business shall
keep a written record of the dates and hours of
each treatment.
6. Any window in the lobby area cannot be covered. The lobby must be clearly visible from the
We can publish your LA County legal.
exterior of the business at all times.

7. No massage establishment shall be used as a
school for teaching massage.
8. Any person receiving a massage under the age
of 18 would need to have a parent or guardian
consent to the massage in writing, and have written consent personally presented by the parent or
guardian of the minor.
