The new museum: Not a monument to college administrators


Dear Editor:
As a patron and graduate of Pomona
College, I hope that the city of Claremont and the newspaper will generate
public support to ensure that a multi-purpose, multi-use museum building serves
the broader community.
The site, across the street from the old
Claremont Inn, should be a nexus for
civic engagement, a sort of Renaissance
city palace, which deepens the cultural
density of the community and the Colleges.
It should have the Athenaeum program that CMC has so successfully developed, some residencies for
Claremont Fellows,ultimately selected
by all of the Colleges and a cinema caf
that shows the classic movies of the last
decades, as well as the documentaries
that shape our consciousness today.
The new art center should include a
richly-conceived dining room that can be
used to entertain art patrons (who should
be cultivated to expand the modest collection), the city leadership, trustees and
dining societies akin to the Elizabethan
Club or the Signet Society at Harvard
and Yale, which nourish good conversationalists among the faculty and students. It could also feature a community
room exhibiting the plans of all of the
educational institutions as an institutional memory displaywhere civic
leaders can meet. And, of course, there
should be a dedicated commitment to
public art and craft that builds a narrative
into the fabric of the building, which the
recent antiseptic studio art buildingremarkably failed to do.
Beyond the budget? Enough of the
banal austerity of too many College

buildings. I have offered up to $8 million


from a dedicated charitable remainder
trust to add the programming and the architectural and artistic finishes that can
make this into a civilizing experience for
all of the people.
After a year, I am still waiting for
Pomona College to seriously consider
these proposals and not rush a monument to completion that characterizes the
dysfunctional combination of arrogance
(we are the most highly-endowed college per capita in the western world and
can plan imperiously) and naivet (we
havent thought about this level of urbane vitality) that often characterize narrowly-conceived academic endeavors.
The community should have the leverage to ensure a level of urbanity that recovers the energy of the old Claremont
Inn, and the daring minds of the millennial. Lets really use that fundraising
slogan to raise institutional consciousness forbroader community benefit.

Golf course is a hazard


Dear Editor:
Remember when we had a golf course
in Claremont? The property, more than
30 acres of it, is now a potentially serious fire hazard. The fairways have been
abandoned, the irrigation shut off and
weeds grow knee-high. The eucalyptus
trees are dying. If a fire got started it
would leap the fence, sweep through the
Botanic Gardens and spread from there
into residential neighborhoods.
The current owner is the Claremont
University Consortium. I think the community has a right to know what plans

City to adopt water restrictions, outline enforcement

he past four years have


been the driest on record
in California, leading
Governor Jerry Brown to order
mandatory water reductions by
25 percent or more for the first
time in the states history.

Recognizing the severity of the situation, and seeking enforcement power,


Claremont City Manager Tony Ramos
declared a Level 2 water supply shortage
on April 23 as outlined in the citys water
ordinance. The declaration was in response to the governors executive order
and the State Water Control Resources
Board, who collectively issued water restrictions this month. The water board is
calling on all water agencies to restrict
watering to no more than two days a
week and to make all 2014 restrictions
not just recommended but mandatory.
On April 28, the Claremont City
Council unanimously affirmed Mr.
Ramos declaration, finding sufficient
reason to declare the water supply shortage and allowing the city to issue citations for water-wasting behavior. The

council also instructed city staff to implement additional water conservation


measures for the city in an effort to meet
the 32 percent water reduction set for
Claremont.
The following water restrictions begin

on Monday, May 11:


Watering or irrigating lawn, landscaping or other vegetated area, with
potable water is limited to two days per
week. Houses with addresses ending in
even numbers will be allowed to water

on Monday and Thursday. Houses with


addresses ending in odd numbers will be
allowed to water Tuesday and Friday.
The restrictions do not apply to drip
systems or hand-watering with a hose
outfitted with an automatic shut-off nozzle.
All leaks, breaks or other malfunctions must be repaired within 48 hours of
notification.
Using water to wash vehicles is prohibited except by use of bucket, handheld hose equipped with a shut-off
nozzle, high pressure/low volume wash
system or at a commercial car wash that
utilizes re-circulated water.
Refilling pools or outdoor spas
more than one foot and initial filling of
pools is prohibited.
According to the citys website, Level
2 conservation measures are in addition
to the citys permanent requirements,
which include no outdoor watering between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. and no washing
down hard or paved surfaces. Residents
may not water more than 15 minutes per
day per watering station. Watering in a

Citys grand fireworks show could be on the move

laremonts Grand Old Fourth of


July is going to look and feel a bit
different this year. The ongoing
drought and statewide urban water restrictions have forced the city to seek alternatives for the annual fireworks show
traditionally held on Strehle Track at
Pomona College.
On Thursday, April 30, the Independence Day
Committee held a special meeting to discuss proposals on an alternative fireworks show for the citys
2015 Fourth of July celebration, led by Assistant City
Manager Colin Tudor.
Claremont High School really appears to be the
best option. It will be similar to homecoming but on a
larger scale and would entail watching fireworks from
the bleachers and on the football field, Mr. Tudor explained. I want to emphasize that this really has to do
only with the impact of the drought and the water restrictions coming out of it. It has nothing to do with
budget cuts.
During their April 28 meeting, the Claremont City
Council adopted a resolution affirming the city managers declaration of a Level 2 water supply shortage in
compliance with the states emergency regulations. The
regulations under Level 2, which include a two-day-aweek watering pattern go into effect May 11, allowing

few challenges of its own. The football field at CHS is


an artificial turf, meaning it gets hot and is not conducive to the typical picnic-style party Claremont patriots are accustomed to.
We cant bring chairs or other things that could
puncture the turf. And there will be no food allowed on
the field, only drinking water, explained Mr. Tudor.
The city hopes to secure an area on the service road
just north of the field and offer tables and chairs so
folks can enjoy the traditional offerings of the Kiwanis Club before The Ravelers concert and fireworks.
We will set up the grill and eating area on the
blacktop, said Kiwanis President Dennis Bauman.
Using the snack shack would not work for us because people would just go on the field. I dont know
how this really is going to work. Its going to be a real
interesting deal.
Ticket sales to the celebration will also be impacted
this year due in large part to the limited seating available at the high school. Last year, nearly 6,000 tickets
were purchased for the event. This year, ticket sales
will max out between 3,000 and 4,000, as the bleachers can seat about 2,700 guests with the field offering
additional blanket seating for remaining ticketholders.
Anticipating a loss this year, the Independence Day
Committee approved taking up to $20,000 from their
rainy day fund to offset any financial shortfall.
As proposed, the fireworks show put on by Bay
Fireworks will also see some changes this year to accommodate the new venue. In years past, the pyrotechnic company has used 3-inch and 4-inch shells
for the Claremont show, but smaller 2-inch shells
would now be used to reduce the amount of fallout
from the fireworks. There was also a bit of talk about
the addition of a field fireworks display, but nothing
has been set in stone.
The city intends to send notice to nearby CHS residents sometime this week, alerting them to the possible change of venue.
The fireworks show alternative will be discussed
before city council during their meeting on Tuesday,
May 12. Public comment is welcome.

WATER RESTRICTIONS/from the previous page

water to flow onto adjoining hardscape or surfaces, like


sidewalks or walkways, is also prohibited.
Reporting water waste and enforcement
Did you spot a water leak or see someone wasting
water in town? State regulations require water suppliers to be the point of contact for water waste reporting
and further requires that those agencies report water
waste activity to the state. Golden State Water Company remains the citys water supplier and can be
reached 24 hours a day, seven days a week at 1-800999-4033 or online at www.gswater.com/reportwater-waste.
A Golden State employee will verify the condition
and make contact with the offender in an attempt to
get voluntary compliance with regulations. Should
compliance not be achieved, GSW will report the activity to Claremonts code enforcement department,
which will issue citations with penalties up to $500
per day. Golden State is subject to a civil liability of
up to $10,000 a day should it violate cease and desist
orders, according to the state water board.
Landscape replacement and other resources
In the governors executive order, government
agencies have been directed to implement statewide
assistance programs to provide monetary incentives
for the replacing water-wasteful devices and of lawns
although the details have not yet been released.
In the meantime, Golden State partners with Three
Valleys Municipal Water District and the Metropolitan Water District to provide customers with rebates
for water-efficient appliances as well as a turf rebate
program. The turf rebate program provides residents
with $2 or more per square foot of turf removed. To
qualify, the homeowner must have grass in the proposed project area and install a new landscape that
meets the terms and conditions for the city. Interested
residents may apply at www.socalwatersmart.com.

ing Rehabilitation Program may be an option. Funded


by the citys Community Development Block Grant,
the program is available for landscape retrofit projects
in conjunction with other repair work. However,
funding is limited and the program currently has a
one-year waitlist.
WRAM
The Water Revenue Adjustment Mechanism
(WRAM) imposed on Claremont residents by Golden
State Water Company has been a point of contention
for many residents who have reduced their water consumption, but have not seen a reduction in their bills.
The WRAM will continue during this time of required reductions in water usage. However, according
to Assistant City Manager Colin Tudor, the city of
Claremont has sent a letter to Governor Brown asking
him to require Golden State Water to suspend this
practice during the water emergency.

POLICE BLOTTER
Monday, April 27
Thieves entered a home on the 1100
block of North Indian Hill and stole a
number of household items. According
to Lieutenant Mike Ciszek, around 8
a.m. unknown burglars used a rock to
break a window on the south side of the
home and gain entry to the first floor.
Once inside the residence, the thieves
ransacked numerous rooms and made
off with coins and jewelry worth $5,000
before fleeing the scene undetected.
Tuesday, April 28
There was no such thing as a clean
getaway for one car thief taken into
custody at a local car wash. An automated license plate reader alerted
Claremont police to a stolen vehicle in
the area around 10 p.m. Officers located the 1995 Honda Accord and its
passengers at a self-service car wash on
Towne Avenue. The driver, Patricia
Luaa, told officers that a friend let her
borrow the car to drive her passenger to
Montclair and she stopped at the car
wash to clean the car. The Pomona resident, however, didnt know how to get
a hold of her generous friend and didnt
know where he lived but said the cars
owner left the car running with the keys
in the ignition. The 30-year-old was arrested for the stolen vehicle, possession

of stolen property and possession of


burglary tools.

A visit from the Sandman resulted in
a collision in the City of Trees. A 68year-old woman was driving her vehicle south on San Angelo Drive near
Napa when she allegedly fell asleep
and collided with the curb, two planters
and a mailbox. Although the Claremont
resident complained of pain to her
wrists, hands and left thigh, she refused
transportation to a local hospital for
treatment. Officers determined the
driver caused the collision by making
an unsafe turn. The vehicle and the
items she hit suffered major damage.
Wednesday, April 29
It takes a special kind of person to
steal from children, and not in a good
way. Thieves entered the campus at
Foothill Country Day School and stole
items from an unlocked trophy case and
several lockers on the northwest portion
of the school. A $300 black autoharp, a
$50 baseball signed by Mr. Webb and a
three Texas Instrument calculators valued at $100 each have been reported
missing.

City-proposed actions
The city will begin a two-day-a-week watering
schedule on Tuesdays and Fridays only in all parks,
shut off irrigation to Padua Park slopes, eliminate the
summer turf rehabilitation program for sports fields
and cease irrigating the Larkin Park soccer fields.
Water bags are being used for city trees in the Village
and residents are encouraged to deep-water their own
trees to ensure tree health during the drought.
The turf and parkways outside Claremont City Hall
and at Shelton Park will no longer be irrigated in anticipation of a turf-reduction landscaping project scheduled to begin this summer, and watering at the Hughes
Center, the Depot, Oak Park Cemetery and parkways
will be reduced to two days a week.
Turf will be removed from medians at Foothill
Boulevard, Indian Hill and First Street and the irrigation systems will be retrofitted to give appropriate
water to the trees that remain.
The citys wading pool program, one season of
which equates to the annual water usage of three
households, will be suspended and city fountains will
be turned off.
Water-related activities will also be eliminated during city events, including the dunk tank and water
slides at the Fourth of July celebration. City staff, in
conjunction with the Independence Day Committee,
has also proposed an alternative to the fireworks show
that will reduce the amount of water needed to combat the ashy debris of the fireworks fallout. The proposed alternative will be presented to city council at a
meeting on May 12.
The restrictions imposed on Claremont residents
target outside water use and a special page entitled
Drought Information has been developed on the
citys website to direct residents to resources and offer
tips on reducing water usage.

down Sumners memory lane.
It was also a great time for the school
to showcase its new courtyard, made of
commemorative bricks purchased by
alumni, community members and current Sumner families to display their
school spirit.
It was chilly but it was phenomenal.
There were a lot of people there, Office

Sumner and Danbury, which is CUSDs
go-to school for children who are orthopedically handicapped or live with other

on their individual strengths. Sumner
students often head to Danbury for
small-group work on team reading with

Danbury teachers.
The fifth and sixth grade students at
Sumner, during the course of their PE
class, swim with their Danbury peers in
the Danbury pool. And upper graders at
Sumner have buddies at Danbury, whom
they are expected to assist in case of an

Touring China la Gilligans Island


by Debbie Carini

A 12-day tour, a 12-day tour


(Sing to the theme song from Gilligans Island)

hen seven people set sail on


what was scheduled to be a
three-hour sightseeing tour on
the charter boat The Minnow, they got
caught in a storm and ended up stranded on
an uncharted tropical islandit was a threehour tour that lasted for three seasons and
innumerable reruns as the television show
Gilligans Island.
I just returned from China where I, too, was a member
of a diverse and eager sightseeing group and, though we
werent shipwrecked or forced to tour the country in a
bamboo taxi (featured in three episodes of the show), we
did eat a lot of exotic food and met some people who
packed like the Howells.
My husband and I have never been on a tour before.
We fancy ourselves adventurers (albeit, ones who like to
stay in hotels, shower with hot water and eat at restaurants); when we travel, we seek out the quirky and unpredictable. Did you know that theres a 70-foot
passageway in San Luis Obispo called Bubblegum Alley
that is composed entirely of previously-chewed gum?
Sensing we might be out of our league in a country as
vast as Chinaespecially since there are no ABCs in

Saving souls

words, as the standard Chinese writing system uses a


non-alphabetic scriptmy husband opted for a guided
tour, complete with meals, lodging and transportation.
Our guide was the flag-toting Sonny. We received a
name tagwhich, when I put it around my neck, made
me feel like I was in third grade again visiting the La Brea
Tar Pitsand a receiver and headset so we could hear
Sonny pontificate on the sights and history of the cities
of Beijing, Xian, Hangzhou, Suzhou and Shanghai. We
traveled by plane, bus and, ever-so-briefly, rickshaw.
There were families and retirees, young couples and best
friends in our troupe. We hailed from every corner of the
United States and even Myanmar.
The first instruction from Sonny was that the restroom
would be known to us tourists as the happy roo. He
also explained that in China, they refer to it as the
karaoke room. He enlightened us on the use of the
squatty-potty, and all I can share in this regard (in this
newspaper) is that I now understand why the Chinese
won 12 medals in gymnastics at the last Olympics.
We took in the great sites: Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, the Great Wall and the Terra Cotta Warriors.

We experienced Chinese dinner theatera dumpling


banquet followed by a Tang Dynasty stage show, which
I can only describe as the Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dream Coat of Buddhism.
We also visited a tea plantation where there was a presentation that sounded almost like an Amway pitch (green
tea as a facial scrub, sunburn treatment, wrinkle reducer,
foot bath and carpet cleaner) and a silk factory.
On the bus, we morphed into an extended family,
much like the castaways on Gilligans Island; instead of
the professor and Mary Ann, we had a guy who couldnt get off the bus without purchasing something (even at
a truck stop!) and a self-declared group photographer,
who posed us in front of beautiful garden scenes like we
were once again a bride and groom. Together our group
marveled at the incredible architecture in Shanghai and
the fact that many, many Chinese woman like to wear
high heel sneakers.
We got to visit our son, whos studying in Shanghai.
He introduced us to street food, Cong You Bing (a delicious green onion and egg pancake).
We didnt end up stranded on an island with our fellow
travelers ( la Gilligan and crew), but well certainly relish a lifetime of memories: the gastronomic, the cultural
and the unexpected. When we asked our tour guide if
hes able to watch American shows on his computer, he
proudly shared that he has downloaded and enjoyed Forrest Gump and Desperate Housewives. Its a small
world after all.

These are glossy brochures with pictures
of teenagers holding their hands in the air
and crying. They invite us to be a part of
a crusade (I cringe), a revival or a mission.
Now, I believe that God works in the
world in wondrous and mysterious ways.
It is not for me to judge how others experience God. Christ is the bread of life and
I am hungry. But, I am a skeptic.
What stands out to me about these mailings is the emphasis placed on numbers.
200 souls were saved. I am a pastor and
political scientist. As a political scientist I
have some experience in collecting data
and interpreting numbers. It is often heard

that numbers dont lie. Its true, but our


interpretation of numbers may be wrong.
Numbers dont lie, but we dont always
know what they are saying.
Growth does not always equate with
health, and decreasing numbers does not
always mean failure. We know this from
our faith stories across our different traditions. Christians have just come through
Holy Week and Easter. On Palm Sunday,
Jesus enters Jerusalem in triumph. He
rides into the city on a donkey, a mockery
of the Roman Empire. He does this in the
midst of a huge cheering crowd. Five days
later, we observe Good Friday. The
crowds are gone. The numbers have decreased. Now the Romans are mocking Je-

am not sure why, but I am


on the mailing lists of a lot
of para-church youth organizations.

sus. Did Jesus fail? No, we know differently.


The number of people who stood before
the cross was not a good measure of what
it all meant and what it means for us today.
Mainstream denominations are on the decline in the United States. I attend committee meetings and pastoral visits where
people express sadness and frustration that
churches are shrinking. Churches across
our country are closing their doors. I
grieve with you, my friends, this is a hard
time. However, many of us have never
known that world.
Children, teenagers and young adults
have never known a world in which
everyone goes to church. Our teenagers

tell me that church isnt popular, it is revolutionary. By attending church, they are
pushing back against the tide of culture.
They are taking risks by attending church.
Young people I know are mocked, criticized and lose friends for seeking faith.
And yet they still come. They are revolutionaries rebuilding our faith communities
before our eyes. If you tell them their faith
community is dying, I think they will tell
you that you are wrong. They only know
a faith that is rising.
Though it may feel like Good Friday,
the experience does not end at the foot of
the cross. Easter is past, present and future.
New life is coming. The story continues
on beyond the cross and into the world of
the resurrected Christ. Faith is rising.
Whatever you believe, may your soul
be saved from the fear of decline and may
it take flight in the hearts of new generations.

It might be fun to make two teams of the guys and take score. We could call it sports or something

Thank you, Childrens Fund


Dear Editor:
For the past year, I have been collecting donations for a ceramic slab roller
for a group of senior ladies and gentlemen in Azusa Senior Center. Because of
budget cuts to education, all funding to
this and other senior classes has been cut
back to zero.
As their teacher, it breaks my heart to
see them try to wedge and roll out clay
with their frail hands and fingers. I have
been trying to find a new or used slab
roller for them. As a result of the generous donations of groups and individuals,
we have finally reached our goal and
have purchased what we need.
I would like to thank the Claremont/West End auxiliary of Childrens
Fund for providing me an opportunity to
sell my pottery and to donate a portion
of the proceeds for this cause. I would
also like to thank the wonderful people
of Claremont who contributed so generously. I would also like to thank Mr. and
Mrs. Kelly Kidwell for sharing their
home and good thoughts for the occasion.
I almost feel sad that all of you who
donated will not see the happy faces of
those wonderful people in the ceramic
class when they use the slab roller. We
are looking forward to next year and another chance to help those in need.

Fighting for the Frack Pack

Dear Editor:
As a leader in the environmental community, the League of Women Voters
looks for solutions to address climate
change, protect our natural resources and
promote a clean energy economy. The
League recently endorsed, and is encouraging members of Congress to cosponsor
and support, five pieces of legislation
known as the Frack Pack.
These bills seek to keep our air and
water safe while holding big polluters responsible for the process. The Frack Pack
bills will close loopholes in the Safe
Drinking Water, Clean Water, Clean Air
and Resource Conservation and Recovery Acts while establishing mandatory
testing of water resources to contain contamination.
Hydraulic fracturing commonly is the
process used to extract natural gas and oil
from deep inside the earth. The process
involves injecting a highly pressurized
fluid consisting of chemicals, water and
sand into deep rock formations in order to
increase access to and allow for oil and
gas to flow freely. Drilling and fracking is
expanding across the country, and the
League believes we must have updated
laws to hold the oil and gas industry accountable to ensure our planet and its re-

sources are protected.


We are concerned about the impact that
fracking may have on our natural resources and public health. Pro-fracking
advocates argue that increasing access to
these fossil fuels enables new energy
sources that have a positive impact on our
economy. But environmental advocates,
including the League, argue it puts our air
and water in danger.
Specifically, there are concerns that the
water used for fracking, which is infused
with sand and chemicals, contaminates
ground water. Fracking also uses anywhere from 70,000 to 140,000 gallons a
year across the United States. With water
resources in jeopardy in most of the western US, this could have a major impact on
the depletion of the fresh water supplies
we need to survive.
Questions remain about the effect of releasing methane gas, which contributes to
climate change. During the fracking
process, methane is released into the air
through the venting of wells to reduce
pressure and through leaks in the system.
The League of Women Voters has called
on the Environmental Protection Agency
to regulate methane from the oil and gas
industry as a key part of the presidents
pledge to reduce greenhouse emissions in
the Climate Action Plan.

The League also wants to make sure


that the oil and gas industry is held accountable for the chemicals used in the
fracking process. The public deserves
complete transparency and disclosure of
the chemicals being used, so that communities across the country can be aware
of any dangerous health risks.
In addition to lobbying to gain support
for the Frack Pack in Congress, the
League has also worked to address the
issue of fracking by offering comment to
the Bureau of Land Management about
the need for regulations on fracking on
federal lands. The League has also testified to the EPAs Science Advisory Board
about the need for a comprehensive,
transparent, science-based, peer-reviewed
study on its potential impact on drinking
water resources.
A path toward a clean energy future
will strengthen our economy by opening
up millions of jobs to Americans while
also rescuing America from its dependence on fossil fuels, reducing threats to
our health and protecting the natural resources that we depend upon for survival.
As the nation shifts towards establishing an economy around renewable energy
and decreasing the size of its carbon footprint, the League will be there to ensure
that were also establishing accountability and safeguards to protect public health
and the environment

Harrison Stephens

OBITUARIES

Newspaperman, jazz musician, loving patriarch


Harrison Lee Stephens, a longtime
Claremont resident, died on May 4, 2015,
two months short of his 100th birthday.
He was born on July 7, 1915 in Los
Angeles, the son of Jess and Alice
Stephens. His father was city attorney of
Los Angeles for several years and then
became a Superior Court judge.
Harrison graduated from Los Angeles
High School and from Stanford University with a degree in journalism. During
his first newspaper job on the Merced
Sun-Star, he was assigned to interview
Doris Landram, a local girl who at that
time was the towns only female airplane
pilot as well as a gifted singer. They were
married six weeks later on October 6,
1939.
The Stephenses had four children and
were married almost 70 years before
Doris death in 2009. Mr. Stephens
granddaughter, Jen Reeder, interviewed
him for a 2014 Huffington Post blog entry titled Life Advice From My 99-yearold GrandpaStill the Coolest Guy I
Know. Among other topics, he weighed
in on the subject of finding true love.
I think theres a lot of luck involved,
and I think theres a lot of mystery involved, he said. After Id known Doris
for really just a very short time, I realized
that I was more comfortable with her
than Id ever been with anybody. What
brings that about? I dont knowthats
the mystery.
During World War II, Mr. Stephens
was a Navy gunnery and communications officer aboard ships in the Asian-Pacific area. He worked for several newspapers in his career and, for three years,
owned and published a weekly newspaper called the La Verne Leader.
He spent 20 years in a variety of news
positions on the Pomona Progress-Bulletin, now the Inland Valley Daily Bul-

letin. He was news editor of that paper


when he resigned to become director of
public information for Claremont University Center, a position he held for 11
years. After retiring from the college
post in 1980, he did freelance writing,
publishing many articles and four nonfiction books, including A Song of
Home: The First 75 Years of Pilgrim
Place in Claremont, California.
A good deal of Mr. Stephens writing
in retirement involved volunteer work
for nonprofit organizations, including the
Volunteer Center (now the Inland Valley
Resource Center), Volunteer Vital English, Claremont Heritage, Recording for
the Blind and Dyslexic, the Claremont
Symphony Orchestra, the Claremont
Committee on Aging and the Pomona-Inland Valley Council of Churches as well
as the Claremont University Club, for
which he had served as president. He
was a former board member of Hillcrest
Homes in La Verne and had served as a
corporation member of Pilgrim Place and

Mt. San Antonio Gardens in Claremont.


Mr. Stephens contributed many letters
to the editor over the years to the
COURIER, championing liberal causes,
correcting editorial errors and, in one
case, chastising the city for the lack of
genre diversity in the summer concert
series. In one letter, he referred to himself
as a kind of nice old geezer, actually. In
another, he shared with amusement that
his 4-year-old great-grandson had mistakenly dubbed the City of Trees Clevermont, a misnomer he considered appropriate.
Mr. Stephens played an active part in
the local news scene up to the very end.
In 2014, COURIER coverage of the
citys Fourth of July celebration included
a cover photo of the 98-year-old Harrison, dressed as Uncle Sam and riding a
three-wheeled bike. The following
month, a poem he penned graced the papers Adventures in Haiku section.
He and Doris moved to Claremont
Manor in 2007, and he was president of
the Manor Residents Association a year
later. In 2000, the Claremont Rotary Club
named Mr. Stephens a Paul Harris Fellow
in appreciation of tangible and significant assistance given for the furtherance
of better understanding and friendly relations among people of the world.
Mr. Stephens had two main hobbies:
sailing and music. He built the familys
first sailboat in 1951 and was an active
sailor and sailboat owner into his late
80s. He was a member of the Balboa
Yacht Club and wrote a column on the
sea, called A Dash of Salt, for the
clubs magazine past his mid-90s. For
many years, he also wrote a column for
the Stanford magazine as correspondent
for his class of 1938. Stanford Associates
gave him its Award of Merit in 2008 and
elected him a member of the Associates

in 2010.
Mr. Stephens also was a jazz musician who began playing guitar at age 12.
He played guitar with numerous small
combos, sometimes for charity and
sometimes for pay. During his 90s he led
a jazz quintet, The Swing Shift, playing
several gigs in the Claremont area. Mr.
Stephens was a member and former president of the Maestros, a musicians club
in Pasadena.
For several years and well into his 99th
year, Mr. Stephens hosted an informal
music session every Tuesday afternoon in
his Claremont Manor apartment. It usually consisted of three or four musicians
and a few friends. The format, he explained, was an hour and a half of jazz
and then we settle into a dry martini.
In Mr. Stephens Huffington Post interview, he noted he had come to a conclusion about the meaning of life.
It sounds awfully corny and saccharine, and its been said by so many people, but I think that love is the most important thing there is, he said. To love
and to be lovedthat combination is a
wonderful thing. Thats the lasting thing.
Mr. Stephens is survived by his daughter and son-in-law Sally and Tom Reeder,
of Oxnard; his son David Hulse-Stephens
and his wife Geri, of Willits; and 10
grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren
and three great-great grandchildren. A
daughter, Susan Collins, died in 2013; a
son, Donald, died in 2014; and a sister,
Barbara Guard, died in 2004.
Harrison Stephens life will be celebrated on Saturday, June 6 at 4 p.m. at
Claremont Manor. In lieu of flowers, the
family suggests a contribution to Rock 1
Kidney (rock1kidney.org), a nonprofit
organization founded by a granddaughter
that provides information and encouragement to potential transplant donors.

CHS junior Andrew Leahy heads into this weeks Palomares League finals as one of the top players having lost only one match all season. Leahy is expected to do
well in the finals and at the CIF tournament but the competition will be tougher than in years past.

CHS tennis caps strong season as CIF play looms

laremont High School boys tennis


capped off a winning season by
defeating the visiting Bonita
Bearcats, 12-6, in the final match of the
season.
The Pack moves into this weeks Palomares
League finals as the second-place team with a record
of 8-2. Both losses were to first-place Diamond Bar.
The doubles team of Naveen Mohideen and Eric
Davis swept the competition, even though Bonita attempted to stack the deck by substituting their top singles player Matthew Diamond for the usual doubles
line-up.
The tactic almost worked as Diamond and
Daanyaal Kuma broke Mohideen and Davis serve
early on to go ahead 2-1. The Pack came back and
won the next two games only to give up the sixth,
tying the score. At first, Davis serve was a bit off, but

CHS ROUND-UP
SWIMMING
CHS swimming had a good start to
their post-season, qualifying several
swimmers for the league finals.
Notable swims during the meet included sophomore Katrina Strash, who
seeded first in the 50-meter freestyle and
third in the 100-meter freestyle; junior
Samantha Duran seeded third in both of
her events, 100-meter fly and 500-meter
free; freshman Emily Marks seeded
fourth in the 100-meter backstroke; and
Ben Eagleton, who seeded fourth in the
50-meter freestyle.

GOLF
The golf team participated in the Palomares League prelims last Thursday at
Los Serranos Country Club in Chino
Hills. On the par 72 course, Jonathan Yoo
shot a 77 and was the only Claremont

as he regained control helping the team eventually


win the match 6-3.
Singles first-seed junior Andrew Leahy easily handled Bonitas number-two and -three
SPORTING
players to finish a nearly perfect seaLIFE
son. Leahy faced Matthew Diamonds brother Zach Diamond and Danny Aljamal,
but neither was able to match his powerful serve as he
defeated both 6-0.
Leahy will have to bring his A-game to the finals,
as the competition will be tougher than in past years.
He will have to stay on his toes. There are a number
of good players, any one of whom could win, said
his father Alan J. Leahy
Leahys brother, former Claremont standout Alan
Leahynow a sophomore at Azusa Pacific Universityis headed to the NCAA Division II National
Tournament on May 12 in Surprise, Arizona.
Claremonts number-two player, Layton Bohren, a
freshman who is developing into a top competitor,

player to make the cut at 82 strokes. Other


performances came from Matt Stanford
and Tyler Yang, who both shot 87. Rounding out the team was Paul Yu at 91 and
Andrew Im at 93.
On Monday, Yoo advanced to the finals
at Whispering Lakes Golf Course in Ontario, where he shot an 80 for a two-day
total of 157 and an eighth-place finish.
On Wednesday, JV had their league finals at Los Serranos where Spencer Sharp
had a good day shooting a 92 for seventh
place. Other scores included Matt Lach at
102, Rick Meguerditchian at 105, Elijah
Song at 105, Kristian Sjoberg at 106 and
Ian Treat at 106.

SOFTBALL
Softball lost a heartbreaker Wednesday against Diamond Bar, 4-3. The Pack
scored first in the second inning and
added two more in the sixth, but the
Brahmas had a big inning in the sixth
with four runs and the win.

also easily handled two players from Bonita, winning


his first match 6-0 and his second 6-2. In an interesting twist, his father Mark Bohren is Alan Leahys
coach at Azusa Pacific. At number-three, Christian
Settles also defeated both of his competitors 6-0.
The boys would normally have played three
games, but coach Clint Rees subbed out his top players to save their energy for the finals and to give other
team members a chance to play in the final match.
The two teams shared a high camaraderie, mingling easily between matches.
You dont always see two teams mixing together
talking about tennis, said Bonita coach Randy Bell.
They will call each other up and say, Lets go hit.
The Palomares League finals finished up Thursday,
after the COURIER print deadline. Look for the latest
updated results on claremont-courier.com.

The girls also lost their home game


against Ayala last Friday, 3-2. Ayala
scored first, but Claremont came back in
the third to tie the game. The score
stayed even until the seventh inning,
when the Bulldogs got the winning run.
Both teams had eight hits. The girls are
now 9-8 overall, 2-5 in league play.

BASEBALL
Claremont High School baseball
played a long 2-2 stalemate with South
Hills on Wednesday at CHS. The teams
battled it out for 12 innings before the
umpire called the game due to darkness.
There was no shortage of hitting, as
Claremont had seven and South Hills
had eight, but both teams had a hard time
scoring runs. Special recognition goes to
Cole Prentice who knocked in both runs
with an RBI single in the third inning.
Trent Troncone and Jake Gentry each
had a hit and scored a run. Jeremiah Maldonado had two hits including a double.

Steven Felschundneff
steven@claremont-courier.com

Tyler Witt pitched just over seven innings, giving up seven hits and two runs,
but only walked one and struck out five.
Reliever Travis Moffat was on the
mound for four innings giving up one hit,
no runs, walking one and striking out
two. Fielding highlights included Chandler Boldig at first base with 13 putouts,
including one double play.
CHS had a disappointing game last
Friday, losing to Glendora 10-1 in Glendora. The Tartans outplayed the Pack
from the very start, scoring in four of the
seven innings. Claremont prevented the
shutout in the seventh when Isaiah Montoya scored.
Starter Noah Song pitched just three
innings, giving up seven hits and seven
runs. He also walked two and struck out
four. Travis Moffatt pitched two innings,
giving up five hits and three runs while
walking one and striking out three.
The boys record is now 8-11-1 overall and 3-8-1 in league.

Kingsley, Kate Tufts winners discuss the art of words

oets are known for laboring alone, often with


little recognition and
less financial remuneration. So
winning the annual Kingsley
Tufts Poetry Award, offered by
the Claremont Graduate University to a mid-career poet
who has achieved much and is
expected to achieve much
more, is a boon for a writer.

Its an honor that comes with growing notice, including write-ups in publications like the Los Angeles Times and
New York Times. It also entails a
$100,000 prize.
The money is life-changing for this
years winner Angie Estes, who took
the prize for her fifth book of poetry
Enchante, because she has eschewed
the advice tendered to creative types
everywhere: Dont quit your day job.
Most poets make ends meet through
teaching. Ms. Estes has kept a toe in academia, serving on the faculty of Ashland Universitys low-residency MFA
program. But she left behind a full-time
professorship, teaching American literature and creative writing at Cal Poly
San Luis Obispo, years ago. Her explanation is simple: she needed time to
write.
You dont just happen to sit down at
a computer or pick up a pen and pen-

The 2015 Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award winner Angie Estes and Kate Tufts Discovery
Award winner Brandon Som.

cil, she said. The job of the poet is to


pay attention to the world. And it takes
a whole life to pay attention.
Ms. Estes was awarded the Kingsley
Tufts prize at an April 16 ceremony at
Pomona Colleges Rose Hills Theater,
followed by an al fresco dinner at
CGUs Presidents House.
Over the course of the evening, the
poet and the art of poetry were widely
praised. Also receiving accolades,

along with the $10,000 Kate Tufts Discovery Award, was Brandon Som for
The Tribute Horse. The latter is
awarded each year to a writer whose
debut book of poetry shows him to be
a poet of genuine promise.
Fulfilling your poetic promise is as
much about surrender as it is about con-

trol, according to Ms. Estes.


I never know where the next poem
is coming from. Its not like I can will a
poem to happen, or even say what my
next poem will be about. Its a contemplative act. Its a process of letting
things drift up to consciousness so they
come together in a new way.
While the end product is a mystery,
Ms. Estes knows which conditions she
needs to get into a writers mindset, a
state Flannery OConnor called a habit
of being.
Ms. Estes reads hungrily, and tries to
spend at least a month-and-a-half each
year in Italy or France. So much of
what I write comes out of cultural exposure, whether to visual art or to history, she said.
The influences of the written word
and the traveled world are evident in
Ms. Estes work, which blends the
oldCatholic saints, Roman deities,
Italian sculpture and Medieval writerswith the new (So many stars to
touch on the iPad of the night. . .).
Ms. Estes may not toil as a full-time
professor, but Enchantes pages are
peppered with instructive italics as she
explores the etymology of words
French, Italian, Greek, Arabicfor
their substrata meaning and aesthetic
appeal.

Claremont COURIER/Friday, May 8, 2015

KINGLSEY TUFTS/from previous page

Theres humor, too, as in the poem


Afternoon: I knew it was time/to
take a break from writing poems/when
the woman at the bank asked what kind
of/form I need to have notarized, and I
said power/of eternity.
Truthfully, though, Ms. Estes rarely
takes a break from writing poetry. Nor
does Brandon Som who, like Ms. Estes,
is fascinated with the sound as well as
the sense of words.
He chalks his love of linguistics up to
his background, which is half-Chinese,
half-Mexican. Mr. Som grew up speaking only English, with Spanish and
Mandarin words cascading around him
at family gatherings. Early on, I was
immersed in the music of language and
not its meaning, he says.
While he sometimes felt like an outsider, being surrounded by foreign
tongues can help forge a writer. You
develop a sense of interiority, he said.
Accordingly, in The Tribute Horse,
he coaxes the reader to slow down
andlike the non-native speaker
focus on the shape of words and the
physical acts required to utter them.
One of the words he uses most often
as a meditative point is the name
Som. It is the surname this grandfather assumed at the age of 12 when he
entered the United States as a paper

son, posing as the scion of a US citizen to circumvent the Chinese Exclusion Act.
Brandon spends much of the first
part of The Tribute Horse meditating
on the karaoke of waves as his ancestor studied coaching papers to pass immigration and spoke his new name
aloud to the sea: What ensued, Mr.
Som insists, was a debt of sound.
Mr. Som also explores his Mexican
ancestry, with references to Juan
Diegos sighting of the Lady of
Guadalupe, followed by a petal-strewn
miracle.
Think of The Tribute Horse as a
pork dumpling taco. Or, as the poet
David St. John said, This collection of
iridescent cross-cultural meditations is
wildly inventive and deeply consoling
from its first syllable to its last.
Mr. Som is a hardworking man, juggling writing with a post at USC where
he teaches composition in The Writing
Program. He is also working toward a
PhD there. So affirmation provided by
the Kate Tufts Prize, plus some money
toward his student loans, is likewise
consoling.
Ive been reading the works of Tufts
recipients for years, he said. Its
amazing to receive this prominent
award.

or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can
receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and
size of outstanding liens that may exist on this
property by contacting the county recorders office or a title insurance company, either of which
may charge you a fee for this information. If you
consult either of these resources, you should be
aware that the same lender may hold more than
one mortgage or deed of trust on this property.
Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right
to bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible
that at the time of the sale the opening bid may be
less than the total debt.
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The
sale date shown on this notice of sale may be
postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil
Code. The law requires that information
about trustee sale postponements be made
available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you
wish to learn whether your sale date has been
postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled
time and date for the sale of this property, you
may call (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet
Web site http://www.altisource.com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/TrusteeServices/Sales.aspx using the file number assigned to
this case 2011-17114. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that
occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not
immediately be reflected in the telephone information. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale

Code 2923.5/2923.55. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding
on this property lien, you should understand that
there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee
auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the
property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee
auction does not automatically entitle you to free
and clear ownership of the property. You should
also be aware that the lien being auctioned off
may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible
for paying off all liens senior to the lien being
auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to
the property. You are encouraged to investigate the
existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens
that may exist on this property by contacting the
county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this
information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust
on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY
OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of
sale may be postponed one or more times by the
mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil
Code. The law requires that information about
trustee sale postponements be made available to
you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not
present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether
your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of
this property, you may call 714-730-2727 or visit

that are very short in duration or that occur close
in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately
be reflected in the telephone information or on the

the initial publication of this Notice of Trustees Sale
is estimated to be $748,401.08 (Estimated). However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale.
Beneficiarys bid at said sale may include all or part
of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will
accept a cashiers check drawn on a state or national
bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union
or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and
loan association, savings association or savings bank
specified in Section 5102 of the California Financial
Code and authorized to do business in California, or
other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee.
In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the
Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustees
Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the
payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property
offered for sale excludes all funds held on account
by the property receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee
is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidders sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful
bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Potential Bidders If you are considering bidding on this
property lien, you should understand that there are
risks involved in bidding at a Trustee auction. You
will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself.
Placing the highest bid at a Trustee auction does not
automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership
of the property. You should also be aware that the
lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you
are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may
be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the
lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear
title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by contacting
the county recorder's office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this
information. If you consult either of these resources,
you should be aware that the same Lender may hold
more than one mortgage or Deed of Trust on the
property. Notice to Property Owner The sale date
shown on this Notice of Sale may be postponed one
or more times by the Mortgagee, Beneficiary,
Trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the
California Civil Code. The law requires that information about Trustee Sale postponements be made
available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to
those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn
whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if
applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale
of this property, you may call Auction.com at

and size of outstanding liens that may exist on
this property by contacting the county
recorder's office or a title insurance company,
either of which may charge you a fee for this
information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same
lender may hold more than one mortgage or
deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO
PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown
on this notice of sale may be postponed one or
more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g
of the California Civil Code. The law requires
that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those notpresent 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 800-542-2550 for
information regarding the trustee's sale or visit

sale. In compliance with California Civil Code
2923.5(c), the mortgagee, trustee, beneficiary, or
authorized agent declares: that it has contacted
the borrower(s) to assess their financial situation
and to explore options to avoid foreclosure; or

to assess their financial situation and to explore
options to avoid foreclosure by one or more of
the following methods: by telephone, by United

overnight delivery; by personal delivery; by email; by face to face meeting or the borrower has
surrendered the property to the mortgagee,
trustee, beneficiary, or authorized agent and that
the compliance with Civil Code Section 2923.5
was made at least thirty (30) days prior to the date
of this Notice of Sale. DATED: 4/7/2015, RTS

CREDIT UNION, OR A CHECK DRAWN BY A
STATE OR FEDERAL SAVINGS AND LOAN ASSOCIATION, A SAVINGS ASSOCIATION OR
SAVINGS BANK SPECIFIED IN SECTION 5102
OF THE FINANCIAL CODE AND AUTHORIZED TO DO BUSINESS IN THIS STATE:
All right, title, and interest conveyed to and now held by
the trustee in the hereinafter described property under
and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described as:
Street Address or other common designation of real
property: 755 West 9th Street, Claremont, CA 91711
A.P.N.: 8310-010-004
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 implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining
principal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of
Trust. The total amount of the unpaid balance of the
obligation secured by the property to be sold and
reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances
at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of
Sale is: $282,785.26.
If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any
reason, the successful bidders sole and exclusive
remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the
Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no
further recourse.
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 recorded in the
county where the real property is located.
NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you
are considering bidding on this property lien, you
should understand that there are risks involved in
bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on
a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest
bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property.
You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest
bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible
for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the
property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may
exist on this property by contacting the county
recorders office or a title insurance company, either
of which may charge you a fee for this information.
If you consult either of these resources, you should
be aware that the same lender may hold more than
one mortgage or deed of trust on this property.
Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to
bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at
the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than
the total debt
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale
date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed
one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the
California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not
present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your
sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the
rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property,
you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit this Internet Web

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or
both, of PATRICIA LEE YARBOROUGH,
PATRICIA L. YARBOROUGH, PAT

A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed

THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests

THE PETITION requests the decedents will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate.
The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.
The PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will
allow the personal representative to take many
actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions,
however, the personal representative will be
required to give notice to interested persons
unless they have waived notice or consented
to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless
an interested person files an objection to the

state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing.
Your appearance may be in person or by
your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a CONTINGENT CREDITOR OF THE DECEDENT,
you must file your claim with the court and
mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either
(1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58 (b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from
the date of mailing or personal delivery to you
of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You
may want to consult with an attorney
knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE THE FILE KEPT BY
THE COURT. If you are a person interested
in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the
filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate
assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available
from the court clerk.

I can't say enough about Mason's easy-going professionalism. I have


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