Day observance at Ukiah’s Russian River Cemetery. Gerald Erickson was a veteran who had passed away only a few

Long may it wave
By CAROLE HESTER
for The Daily Journal
Flag Day, June 14, is a day for all
Americans to celebrate and show
respect for our flag, its designers and
makers.
Our flag is representative of our
independence and our unity as a
nation -- one nation, under God, indivisible. Our flag has a proud and glorious history. Many people have died
protecting it. It even stands proudly
on the surface of the moon.
The Fourth of July was traditionally celebrated as America’s birthday,
but the idea of an annual day specifically celebrating the flag is believed
to have first originated in 1885. B.J.
Cigrand, a schoolteacher, arranged
for the pupils in the Fredonia, Wis.
Public School, District 6, to observe
June 14 (the 108th anniversary of the
official adoption of The Stars and
Stripes) as “Flag Birthday.” In
numerous magazines and newspaper
articles and public addresses over the
following years, Cigrand continued
to enthusiastically advocate the
observance of June 14 as “Flag
Birthday,” or “Flag Day,” according
to www.usflag.org.
For decades, adults and children
have participated in patriotic programs around Flag Day.
In 1914, Franklin K. Lane,
Secretary of the Interior, delivered a
Flag Day address in which he repeated words he said the flag had spoken
to him that morning: “I am what you
make me; nothing more. I swing
before your eyes as a bright gleam of
color, a symbol of yourself.”
See FLAG, Page 2
The Avenue of Flags is made up entirely of donated flags used at
burial ceremonies for fallen veterans. At this year’s Memorial Day
service at Ukiah’s Russian River Cemetery, the names of each of
the veterans who had died during the year were read, alongside a
bell toll which was sounded for each one.
Red Cross reviews year of responding to emergencies in 2 counties
Community invited to annual meeting
The Daily Journal
In a year that saw no major local disasters,
but more than 50 small ones, volunteers with the
American Red Cross, Sonoma & Mendocino
counties, responded to and trained for emergencies of all kinds. At the organization’s upcoming
annual meeting on Tuesday, Red Cross members will hear moving stories from the past year,
see new board members elected and enjoy
lunch.
Anyone who has donated funds, volunteered
for the American Red Cross, worked for or
worked with the organization is considered a
member, and all members are invited to attend.
The program takes place from noon to 1:30 p.m.
Tuesday at the chapter’s headquarters, 5297
Aero Drive, Santa Rosa. The meeting and lunch
are free, but RSVPs are required at 577-7619.
The program will feature speakers who typify two important Red Cross programs that may
be unfamiliar even to Red Cross supporters.
Liberian Katumu Varpon and her adult children
Chico and Ciatta all took Nursing English at the
Red Cross to improve their English skills. Then
all three passed the Red Cross Certified Nurse
Assistant Training course. Chico will talk about
See RED CROSS, Page 14
The agenda for Tuesday’s Mendocino
County Board of Supervisors meeting is
dominated by a single item -- the county
budget.
After the board begins open session, only
one other timed item is scheduled for the
day’s deliberations. Ukiah native and current Miss California Melissa Chaty is
scheduled to be honored for her achievements by the board at 10 a.m.
“As Miss California, Ms. Chaty participated in the 2008 Miss America competition, ranking as one of eight deserving finalists in the pageant,” stated a portion of the
Agenda Summary for the item, which was
brought forward by 3rd District Supervisor
John Pinches. “Throughout Miss Chaty’s
pageant career, she has been an outspoken
advocate in increasing awareness for the
Alzheimer’s Association, which was her
platform both during her pageant career, as
well as being the focus of her efforts and
attention during her many years spent providing service to communities throughout
California. Melissa has conducted her time
spent in the public eye with a characteristic
grace and decorum that should provide an
exemplary role model to the youth in this
community.”
After the ceremony, at 10:30 a.m., the
board Budget Session is scheduled to begin
with opening remarks by current board
Chairman and 2nd District Supervisor Jim
Wattenburger. The session will continue for
the remainder of the morning until noon
when the board is scheduled to break for
lunch.
The session is scheduled to continue at
1:30 p.m. with the presentation of the 200809 proposed budget and is expected to continue on into the afternoon.

agenda, visit the board’s Web site at www.co.mendocino.ca.us/bos/cgi-bin/meetings.pl.

ELIZABETH INGELS
MAGRUDER
Elizabeth Ingels
Magruder, 88, peacefully
and
gracefully passed away on
Tuesday, May 27
at Dalistan Care Home in
Ukiah with the loving support of her family
and caregivers.
Betty was born on July
22, 1919 in San Francisco and grew up on her
family ranch in Potter Valley. Her father,
Ray Ingels, was a
State Senator, and her
mother, Helen Ingels,
was a proper Victorian
woman, so Betty was
raised to stand straight,
put work before play,
and always behave with
elegance and charm.
After graduating from
Stanford University with
a degree in Economics,
Betty served as a
Lieutenant in the Navy
during World War II.
She was lucky enough to
be one of the first
Waves stationed in
Oakland where she met
and married a southern
gentleman named
Robert Magruder. Betty
brought her new husband back to her ranch in
Potter Valley where
they spent many years
raising cattle, pears,
and their two children,
Robert Junior (Mac)
and Helen. After her husband’s death in
1980, Betty helped her
daughter Helen operate a summer camp on the
ranch for a number of years and also did
the bookkeeping for her
son Mac’s cattle operation.
Betty was active in her
community. She was
a member of the Saturday
Afternoon Club,
PEO, and helped on many
political and fundraising campaigns including Ronald Reagan’s
run for Governor of
California.
Betty will be remembered for her graciousness and supportive
nature. She saw the
best in everyone she knew,
always maintained a positive attitude,
never gossiped, and
lived with integrity and

She was preceded in
death by her husband
Robert Magruder, and her
sister Helen
Green. She is survived by
her son Mac Magruder, his wife Kate, her
grandchildren
Grace and Martha
Magruder, her daughter
Helen Magruder Menasian
and Helen’s husband David.

life will be held on

Inspired by three decades
of state and local celebrations,
Flag Day (the anniversary of
the Flag Resolution of 1777)
was officially established by
the proclamation of President
Woodrow Wilson on May 30,
1916. While Flag Day was
celebrated in various communities for years after Wilson’s
proclamation, it was not until
Aug. 3, 1949, that President
Truman signed an Act of
Congress designating June 14
of each year as National Flag
Day.

Every Memorial Day, a
regal display of U.S. Flags
waves in the wind at Ukiah’s
Russian River Cemetery. The
Avenue of the Flags, a brainchild of Pete Sozzoni, was
established in 1976. The

Mendocino Veterans Services
Office.
Bob Parker, VFW Post
1900 quartermaster and program chairman, said, “Every
year, about one-and-a-half
weeks before the Memorial
Day ceremony, VFW members and other volunteers
clean out the holes, with great
cooperation by the cemetery.
This year the California
Conservation Corps helped in
this clean-up preparation, as
well as the setting up and taking down of the flags.” Parker
may be reached at his work
phone at 463-4079 or at his
home phone at 485-7867.
Placing flags for the
Avenue of Flags at the Ukiah
cemetery usually commences
at 5:30 a.m. on Memorial Day,
and flags are displayed until 3
p.m., when service organization members and volunteers
take the flags down and store
them for next year.
To obtain a casket flag for a
veteran, contact the U.S.
Postal Service. After the ceremony, the flag is handed to the
family at which time the family may indicate they would
like to have their loved one’s
flag added to the display of
flags. Sometimes families
embroider or write in permanent black ink the name,
enforcement officers are innocent until proven guilty. People
reported as having been arrested may contact the Daily
Journal once their case has
been concluded so the results
can be reported. Those who
feel the information is in error
should contact the appropriate
agency. In the case of those
arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence of an
intoxicant: all DUI cases reported by law enforcement agencies are reported by the newspaper. The Daily Journal makes
no exceptions.

Proper display
of the U.S. flag
There is a right way and a
wrong way to display the flag.
The American flag should be
held in the highest regard. It
represents our nation and the
many people who gave their
lives for our country and our
flag. Here are the basics on
displaying the American flag:
• The flag is normally
flown from sunrise to sunset.
• In the morning, raise the
flag briskly. At sunset, lower it
slowly. Always, raise and
lower it ceremoniously.
• The flag should not be
flown at night without a light
on it.
• The flag should not be
flown in the rain or inclement
weather.
• After a tragedy or death,
the flag is flown at half staff
for 30 days. It’s called “half
staff” on land, and “half mast”
on a ship.
• When flown vertically on
a pole, the stars and blue field,
or “union,” is at the top and at
the end of the pole (away from
your house).
• The American flag is
always flown at the top of the
pole. Your state flag and other
or birth announcements will result in
reprinting the entire article. Errors
may be reported to the editor, 4683526.

• The union is always on

the stars and blue field are
always on the left.
• Never let your flag touch
the ground.
• Fold your flag when storing.
• When your flag is old and
has seen better days, it is time
to retire it. Old flags should be
burned or buried. Please do
not throw them in the trash.
Did you know?
There is a special ceremony
for retiring the flag by burning
it. It is a ceremony everyone
should see. The local Veterans
Service Office, or a veteran’s
organization, or a local Boy
Scout group knows the proper
ceremony and performs it on a
regular basis. If you have an
old flag, give it to them and
attend the ceremony.
If the family flag donated
to the VFW unit becomes old
and tattered, the VFW unit in
Ukiah will properly retire the
unsightly flag. Every effort is
made to contact the family to
return the worn flag to them.
In the meantime, Bob Parker
leads out in purchasing a
replacement flag. The family
has the option of re-naming
the replacement flag. If the
family chooses not to receive
the worn flag, or the family is
not located, the folks at the
local VFW unit will retire the
flag.
NorCal wildfires destroy homes, force thousands to flee
Associated Press
PARADISE — As a wildfire bore down
on his home of 15 years, hopscotching
between properties here, Larry Knifong
decided to take his chances and stay — that
is, until the flames raced up a ridge toward
this ranch-style house.
“It was just moving very, very fast, it
was just picking and choosing what it wanted,” said Knifong, who was back at his
property Friday after the fire passed
through. It had spared his home, but his
neighbors down the way weren’t so lucky.
At least 40 homes were destroyed and
thousands of residents evacuated the Butte
County town of Paradise, about 90 miles
north of Sacramento, to escape the blaze
that contributed to at least one death — an
elderly woman who suffered a heart attack
while evacuating. It’s the only fatality asso-
ciated with Northern California fires this
month.
That blaze was just one of a series vexing firefighters across Northern California
on Friday. A wildfire in Monterey County
continued to chew through the Los Padres
National Forest, and flames in Santa Cruz
County kept hundreds of residents away
from their mountain homes.
Ruben Grijalva, director of the
California Department of Forestry and Fire
Protection, said the Butte County fire was
the most dangerous because it was moving
toward Paradise on Friday, prompting officials to call for another round of precautionary evacuations for 4,500 people there.
About 9,000 residents evacuated the area a
day earlier, but officials had reopened roads
to some of those homes Friday.
Only 15 percent of the fire was con-
tained by Friday morning, and it had
charred more than 20,000 acres. Five firefighters have sustained minor injuries.
Lighter winds on Friday gave firefighters optimism that they would make significant gains.
“The winds have died down ... and our
firefighting units throughout the state are
making great progress,” Grijalva said.
Cal Fire spokesman Joshpae White, one
of the firefighters injured, said he was
escorting reporters through the fire area in a
pickup truck when the flames quickly
began closing in. After safely evacuating
the reporters, he helped nearby firefighters
escape and was forced to drive through a
wall of fire.
“It looked like a million blowtorches

Christadelphian Lectures
to continue on June 18
On Wednesday, June 18, at 7:30 p.m., the Christadelphians

will be the fifth of a six part series based on “The Real
Kingdom of God” held at the Christadelphian hall located on
the corner of South State Street and Oak Knoll Rd.
Christadelphians believe that the Kingdom of God will be on
this earth, at the return of Jesus from heaven. This belief is
based on texts such as Luke 1:31-33, Matthew 19:27-28, Acts
3:19-21, and 1 Corinthians 15:22-28. Hence, Christadelphians
believe “The Rapture” will be the gathering and relocation on
this earth of believers living at the return of Jesus.
They invite all to join them at their hall located off S. State
Street and Oak Knoll Rd. this coming Wednesday. For more
information, call 744-1835, or write to “The Christadelphians”,

Priest to recruit military
personnel for new kind of service
By JAY LINDSAY
The Associated Press
METHUEN, Mass. -- The
Rev. John McLaughlin never
served in the military, but he’s
faced unexpected, violent death
in the way troops do.
Decades ago, McLaughlin
lay bleeding on a Boston street
after being stabbed from behind.
The prayer-filled moments that
followed, when McLaughlin
believed he might die, changed
his life and ultimately led him to
God. Now, in a newly created
job, he’ll be trying to recruit
military personnel to the Roman
Catholic priesthood.
He believes that service
members, who confront death
as part of their jobs, could have
a similar openness to religious
service.
“You start realizing how
fragile life is,” McLaughlin said.
“And when people start thinking in those terms, they eventually start thinking about helping
people in life.”
This month, McLaughlin left
his parish north of Boston and
became the first-ever national
vocations director at the
Archdiocese of the Military in
Washington. McLaughlin will
travel the country, speaking to
troops about following a commitment to their country with
commitment to their faith.
The clergy shortage in the
Catholic church is well documented, and officials see the
military as potentially rich
ground to find future priests and
nuns.
Besides having faced questions of life and death, military
men and women tend to have
traits necessary for religious life,
including self-discipline and a
willingness to sacrifice, said
Monsignor James Dixon of the
Archdiocese of the Military.
Church officials estimate 11
percent of seminary students
during the last three years
served in the military or had a
parent who served. The archdiocese has long reached out to service members, but never had the
money to hire someone dedicated to that job, Dixon said.
“We finally got to the point
where we think it’s become an
absolute necessity,” he said.
Army chaplain Paul Hurley,
who attended seminary with
McLaughlin in the early 1990s,
advocated for his friend to get
the job without McLaughlin’s
knowledge.
Hurley said McLaughlin has
an authenticity and a knack for
getting young people to talk
about what’s important to them.
Those characteristics are crucial
when someone is deciding if life
as a priest or nun is right, he
said.
“He’s got that special touch,”
Hurley said. “He finds a way of
connecting with people where
they’re at.”
McLaughlin’s casual manner
went with his unbuttoned clerical collar during a recent interview in his former office at
Saint Monica’s Church in
Methuen. A solid build reflects
his past as wrestler at Boston
College and successful high
school coach in his native
Woburn.
McLaughlin, 50, the oldest of
four brothers, said his first major
encounter with God came when
he was stabbed in the liver at
age 20 while walking near
Boston’s Faneuil Hall market-
place. He and his brother were
jumped without provocation, he
said. As he lay on the street,
McLaughlin prayed for forgiveness, and for his family.
“Even when I faced the worst
hardship I turned to God,”
McLaughlin said.
His commitment to the
priesthood came more than a
decade later, after experiencing
an overwhelming peace during
visits to the village of
Medjugorje, in the former
Yugoslavia, where the Virgin
Mary is said to have appeared.
“I thought, this is what God
wants me to do, is to tell people
about that and bring that peace
of God to them,” he said.
McLaughlin was initially
hesitant to take the new vocations post, telling Dixon that he
was comfortable at Saint
Monica’s.
O’Brien replied that “there’s
a lot of men and women in
Afghanistan and Iraq that were
pretty comfortable, too,”
McLaughlin said. “That little
guilt trip made me think about
things.”
McLaughlin believes he’ll be
helping both the church and the
troops in his new job. If he succeeds in recruiting more priests
to dioceses, he said, those dioceses may be more likely to allow
their priests to serve in the military, where the priest shortage is
particularly acute.
In the Army, for instance,
there are just 100 priests to serve
more than 105,000 Catholic soldiers, said Chaplain Ran
Dolinger, a spokesman at the
Army’s office of Chief of
Chaplains.
Dolinger said he welcomed
the church’s move to create
McLaughlin’s job, adding he
knows some people who leave
the military for religious life will
never return but that others will
become the chaplains the military sorely needs.

Sweet land of liberty
NAT HENTOFF

High-speed rail
can become
reality here, too
Mia Farrow’s
legacy letter
to the president
While people in many countries are passionately involved in trying to end the Sudan government’s ever-increasing genocide in Darfur, one
person relentlessly embodying that determination who has caught the attention of the world is
Mia Farrow. She and her son Ronan first nailed
China’s key financial -- and U.N. Security
Council support -- of Sudan’s genocidal Gen.
Omar al-Bashir by describing China’s August
coming-out party as “the genocide Olympics.”
On May 28, the former actress, who has
become a world-class exposer of nations’ crimes
against their citizens, wrote a letter to George W.
Bush that began: “I have just returned from my
ninth trip to the region affected by the Darfur
tragedy, now in its sixth year. I am writing to urge
you to use the remaining months of your presidency to end the genocide in western Sudan and
to make lasting peace in the region a legacy of
your administration.”
She continued by giving justified credit to the
Bush administration’s “essential role in securing
the 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement
(CPA) formally ending Sudan’s (20-year) NorthSouth Conflict (with 2 million dead).” That
peace agreement, she told the president, is “fast
unraveling and in urgent need of attention.”
As is his brutal custom, Gen. Omar al-Bashir
has steadily failed his obligations under that
treaty, with a covetous eye on the South’s oil-rich
region. As Farrow noted in her letter, recent
attacks by Sudan’s army and its rapacious
Janjaweed militia on Abyei in the South have
torn more than 100,000 from their homes and
may presage a second North-South War.
Turning to Darfur, her letter informed Bush
that: “Government bombing campaigns continue
apace, with tens of thousands of terrified survivors joining the more than 2.7 million already
displaced. On my recent trip, I once again held
broken people in my arms, and once again they
told me to tell the world that if something is not
done, they will all die ... not only from the violence, but also from starvation and disease. The
aid workers tasked with delivering food and
medicine are being targeted and killed.”
Moreover, ensuring more deaths, al-Bashir
has so obstructed the full deployment of the
UNAMID peacekeeping mission authorized by
the U.N. Security Council nearly a year ago that,
as Farrow’s message to the president pointed out,
“only a fraction of the peace-keeping mission is
deployed and little of its essential infrastructure
is in place.”
Most tellingly, she added that “U.N. officials
have expressed fear that as things stand, the
peacekeepers in Darfur will be unable to protect
themselves, let alone Darfur’s traumatized civilians and the humanitarian workers struggling in
sustain them.”
With the United States taking its turn in
assuming the presidency of the U.N. Security
Council this month, Farrow urges President Bush
to seize this “unique opportunity to hold an open
meeting -- a pledging conference” ... that “can
facilitate the pairing of nations with capable
armies to train, equip, sustain those African
(Union) battalions in Darfur (and the wholly
inadequate UNAMID forces) in need of assistance.”
Farrow is very mindful of the fact that Bush
was the first world leader to publicly call what
she accurately describes as “the immeasurable
suffering” in Darfur by its horrendous rightful
name: genocide.
“Mr. President,” Farrow ends her letter, “you
have an opportunity to end this tragedy. The
world will long remember who ended the Darfur
genocide. The global community is in need of
your moral leadership.”
I expect Farrow is hoping that her letter will
reach that deep inner voice of conscience in the
president that manifested itself soon after he took
office when he was reading about the deadly
silence of the United Nations’ then head of
peacekeeping, Kofi Annan -- and President Bill
Clinton -- when they had the opportunity to stop
the genocide in Rwanda but averted their eyes.
In the margin of the page he was reading on
those two world leaders’ failure of conscience,
George W. Bush wrote: “Not on my watch!”
Much has happened since to blight the legacy
of Bush’s presidency, but Farrow is right. If he
can directly engage himself and his administration to bring the UNAMID peace mission in
Darfur to full force -- and to confront al-Bashir
directly with the charge, as is being heard in devastated Abyei, in South Sudan, that he is preparing for “a final solution” in the South, the Bush
legacy will be considerably brightened.
Like Farrow, I believe Bush has this capacity
within him not only to strengthen his legacy, but
more deeply meaningful to him, to answer the
renewed call of his conscience and save many
thousands of lives in Darfur.

Fair and unbiased
reporting

How to protect
against wildfire
To the Editor:
I worry a lot about the possibilities of
wildfire, so I attended a recent Firesafe
Council meeting at the Vichy Springs
Resort. Here are a few ideas I heard that
might help UDJ readers save their home,
or life, from a wildfire in our valley this
fire season.
1. Clean rain gutters and roof valleys of
dry leaves or needles regularly.
2. Wood shake shingles are a big danger. Replace them as soon as possible.
Do not use power equipment after 10
a.m. Early morning humidity helps reduce
chances of an equipment-started fire.
Many wildfires are caused by power
equipment.
4. Trim up your trees to 10 feet, clean
out flammable shrubs around the sides of
your home and cut all dry grass out to 30
feet from your home.
5. Burn piles regularly cause wildfires.
Use caution while burning.
6. Whenever you see a fire, call 911.
That call may be the first call. Do not
assume that someone else has called.
7. Be sure that your house number is
easily visible from the street.
8. No burning is permitted without a
burn permit from CDF, now called
CalFire. Call them at 462-7448 or 4597414.
9. Talk soon with your neighbors to
make a neighborhood fire response plan,
including a telephone tree. The Firesafe
council will gladly help you here. Call
their leader, Julie Rogers, at 462-3662.
10. Do not think that a serious wildfire
cannot happen here. Our long dry spring
has made for very dry conditions already.
11. So get to work making your house
more ‘firesafe’, talk to your neighbors,
and Call Julie Rogers for other ideas.
After mentioning all this, I do want
readers to know that we have a very effective fire fighting team in this valley.
CalFire, the Ukiah Valley Fire Department
and their fine volunteers respond quickly
when we need them. They, though, ask us
to help them by making our homes more
‘firesafe’.

Potter Valley Memorial
Day Parade a great event
To the Editor:
The community of Potter Valley came
together this year for our annual Rodeo
weekend parade with families, gathered
friends, businesses, antique car and tractor
enthusiasts, lawn mower racers, 4-H
members, a rock and roll band, the Don
Todd family and our volunteer fire department driving their new fire truck; all first
district supervisor candidates were represented in great form.
I would like to thank all those who participated and helped organize this years’
Potter Valley Rodeo Memorial Day
Weekend Parade. Even with the threat of
rain it was fun!
My husband and I fell in love with this
little town when we came to our first
parade 9 years ago. We envied such a
community and wanted to be a part of it.
I would also like to thank the Potter
Valley Community Park and recreation
committee for honoring myself and my
husband with the “All-Around Award” we
received this Rodeo weekend. We are
truly honored.
I can think of several others who are
deserving of this award. It is a pleasure to
participate in the social events and fund
raising activities of this small community
who appreciates what we do and has
embraced our family.

There are few travel pleasures greater than leaning
back on the French TGV (train a grande vites, French
for high speed train) as it glides smoothly out of a
Paris railroad station, then watching as it whizzes
effortlessly past cars traveling nearby at top freeway
speeds. The comfort and the pace continue all the way
to Geneva, Switzerland, Lyon or Lourdes, the Roman
Catholic shrine city in the shadow of the Pyrenees
mountain chain at the far south of France.
You don’t get an excess of time to enjoy this,
though, because you reach Lourdes, for example, in
just over three hours -- much less than one-third the
time of a conventional train or automobile trip
between the same two points.
The sensation is similar aboard the Eurostar, which
heads northwest from central Paris to downtown
London via the “Chunnel,” requiring far less time and
trouble than getting to and from airports for a plane
trip between those cities.
And the feeling is much the same aboard the ACE
high-speed train between Madrid and Seville in Spain
or similar trains between Tokyo and Kyoto in Japan.
Now the route for something similar in California
has finally been chosen, if not yet set in stone. Highspeed trains would run from Union Station in Los
Angeles via Palmdale and the San Joaquin Valley to
San Francisco and Sacramento, with the tracks splitting approximately at Los Banos in Merced County,
where the route to the Bay Area would head over
Pacheco Pass to Gilroy and San Jose before coasting
into San Francisco’s Trans-Bay terminal via an existing Caltrain right-of-way. A spur route would offer
similar service to Sacramento. The system would
eventually be expanded south to San Diego.
The entire trip would take about 2 and a half hours,
far less than driving, and with far less hassle than air
travel.
This plan for California is still far from reality. It
can get a start with a $9.95 billion bond issue up for a
vote this November.
The question: In a day when the state may run a $15
billion deficit or more and when Gov. Arnold
Schwarzenegger has tried for across-the-board 10 percent budget cuts, how can we afford a massive new
toy? Many equate the high-speed train idea to a family that wants to buy a new Ferrari when it can only
afford macaroni and cheese for dinner.
But high speed trains may be more than a mere luxury. They can make business travel between urban
centers easier and more comfortable, without many of
the restrictions and complications terror fears have
brought to air travel. They can also restore California’s
aura of leading the way toward a better lifestyle for all
Americans. The trains would be instant tourist attractions, with reservations booked months in advance.
These realities suggest the financing plan now proposed, with a conventional bond to be paid off by all
state taxpayers, might not be the best way to finance a
massive project like high speed rail.
Why should all taxpayers pay for a toy that will be
used only by a few? Why should taxes from people in
Redding or Chico be used for a rail system that will
never approach those cities, even as it serves the likes
of Bakersfield, Fresno, Madera and Stockton?
The plain answer is that residents there should not
be taxed for this. Nor should poor Californians in Los
Angeles, the San Joaquin Valley or the San Francisco
Bay area who will rarely if ever ride these trains. For
it is reality that -- just as in Europe or Japan -- fares on
high-speed trains would be considerably higher than
on conventional ones.
So unlike dams or highways or public hospitals or
sewers, high speed rail should be built neither with
general obligation bonds, as now proposed, nor with
general fund revenues on a pay-as-you-go basis.
Rather, revenue bonds are the answer. Many an
American stadium, toll road, bridge, airport terminal
and short-cut tunnel has been built this way, with borrowed money that is eventually paid back by users of
the project.
In short, since high-speed rail is not as essential as
freeways or ordinary passenger and freight trains, why
finance it the same way? Just as air fares are now
taxed to pay for increased airport security, high speed
rail tickets could be priced to meet bond payments.
Just as hotel guests are often taxed to pay for improvements and services intended for tourist use, why not
make high speed train riders pay in full for the service
they are enjoying?
That’s what they do in France and Spain and
England, and there is no shortage of riders, with trains
often reserved to capacity weeks in advance.
That’s the way California should go, too. It’s probably the only way to pay for this highly desirable,
crown jewel transportation project and still move
toward solving the state’s consistent budget deficit
problems.

PGA TOUR | U.S. OPEN
Woods hits his stride and makes his move
By DOUG FERGUSON
Associated Press
SAN DIEGO — Even with a sore
knee, Tiger Woods hit his stride
Friday at the U.S. Open.
It started with his feet on a concrete cart path and a shot that went
under a tree and over a bunker to 18
feet for birdie. What followed was
flawless golf and a 30 on the front
nine at Torrey Pines that gave Woods
a 3-under 68 and left him one shot
behind Stuart Appleby going into the
weekend.
Appleby holed a 45-foot birdie
putt on the 18th hole for a 70 that
NBA | KINGS
Donaghy’s
claims bring back
bad memories for
Kings
gave him the lead in a major for the
first time since he led Woods by one
shot going into the final round of the
Masters last year.
Appleby was at 3-under 139 and
will play in the final group with
Rocco Mediate, who seems to play
his best golf in the toughest conditions. Mediate reached 4 under at one
point before settling for a 71, also
one shot behind.
Woods will play with Robert
Karlsson, whom he defeated in a
meaningless singles match at the
Ryder Cup two years ago. Karlsson
had a 70 to join the others at 140.
“He wants to play some golf, we
want to play some golf,” Appleby
said, and then he joked: “I just know
I’ll be doing the best I can to actually throw a club toward his sore knee.
It’ll be an accident, of course.”
Phil Mickelson had trouble keeping his 3-wood in the fairway, made
six bogeys and shot 75 to fall seven
shots behind.
Appleby, Mediate and Karlsson
were jostling for the lead throughout
the afternoon, and Appleby finally
grabbed it on his final hole. He
recovered from back-to-back bogeys
early on his back nine with birdies on
the par 5s, the last one from below
the ridge that put him atop the
leaderboard and left several players
more than 10 shots out of the lead
and out of the tournament.
Woods was on the opposite side of
the course, and despite the famous
“June Gloom” layer of fog that blanketed Torrey Pines, he was easy to
find. A high-charged gallery,
crammed in the bleachers and behind
the ropes, rose to their feet with
every birdie.
“All of a sudden, they just started
flying in from everywhere,” Woods
said.
After his approach shot just inches from the cart path on No. 1, he
never missed another fairway or
another green. Woods poured in a
20-foot birdie on the second hole,
then rolled one in from 25 feet up the
slope on No. 4, putting him at even
par for the tournament.
One hole later, his downhill putt
from 18 feet broke sharply toward
the ocean over the final inches and
dropped into the heart of the cup,
bringing another light fist pump and
a red number on the board. He was
under par.

YANKEES 4 | A’S 1 (THURS.)
Matsui, Pettitte slam A’s
By BRIAN MAHONEY
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — For an NBA
player, it was the kind of loss that can
take years to get over. Now the
Sacramento Kings are dealing with it
all over again.
A foul discrepancy so lopsided
they couldn’t help but wonder if they
were being cheated. And this week,
six years later, accusations that, in
fact, they were.
On the verge of playing for a
championship they would have been
favored to win, the Kings lost Game 6
of the Western Conference finals to
the Los Angeles Lakers, 106-102. Los
Angeles shot 27 free throws in the
fourth quarter, scoring 16 of its final
18 points at the line, to even the
series.
Former referee Tim Donaghy
alleged in court papers filed this week
that two referees, known as “company men,” purposely ignored personal
fouls and called “made-up fouls on
Team 5 in order to give additional
free throw opportunities for Team 6.”
NBA commissioner David Stern,
and Kings owners Gavin and Joe
Maloof have rejected the claims from
Donaghy, who has pleaded guilty to
betting on games he officiated and
taking cash payments from gamblers.
But Doug Christie, remembering
how his teammates felt after the
game, said he still believes they might
be true.
“What’s been in the dark comes to
the light, and the truth can squash a
lot of things. And so if this is the
truth, then all of a sudden now it adds
validity to things people were thinking, things that our teammates and
I’m sure the coaching staffs and the
Maloofs were thinking at that particular time,” Christie said.
Christie was a starting guard on a
team that won an NBA-best 61
games.
Chris
Webber,
Peja
Stojakovic, Vlade Divac and Mike
Bibby were the other starters for the
Kings, a high-scoring group under
Rick Adelman who felt it was their
time to finally get by the hated
Lakers.
“We thought we had the best
team,” Gavin Maloof said. “I know
the Lakers had a great team.
Remember you had Kobe and Shaq in
his prime, I mean that was a tough
combination. But we had a lot of
great players, too. We had what we
felt was the best team in the league.”
The Lakers went on to take Game
7 in overtime at Sacramento before
sweeping the overmatched New
Jersey Nets in the finals. Webber tore
up his knee the next year, and the
Kings never came close again to winning a title.
Now, Donaghy’s allegations have
them thinking about what might have
been.
“You never get over it,” Maloof
said. “It was a tough loss and to
rehash it all, to have everybody calling from years gone by, it is tough
because it brings up bad memories.”
Christie, who said he was physically sick after learning of Donaghy’s
accusations, is still curious after hearing that retired referee Ted Bernhardt,
who worked the game, told
ESPN.com that: “I stand by my calls
in that game. I was right on.”
“His statement was ’I,’ and he
emphasized ’I’ stand behind every
call that I made, but personally the
other two refs, I love them, I stand
behind them, and when you hear stuff
like that, it’s like something’s got to
give,” Christie said.

Yankee DH Hideki Matsui is congratulated after his grand slam HR off A's starter Joe Blanton during the 6th inning of their game
at the Oakland Coliseum on Thursday night. The homer would be all the support that Yankee starter Andy Pettitte would need
en route to beating the A’s. Below, Joe Blanton delivers a pitch in the fourth inning.
By JOSH DUBOW
Associated Press
OAKLAND — Hideki Matsui
had no use for the birthday cake he
was given before the game, not
wanting to add the extra calories to
his waistline.
He found a much better way to
celebrate his 34th birthday than
eating a piece of cake. Matsui hit a
grand slam to help Andy Pettitte
move into a tie for fourth place on
the New York Yankees career wins
list with a 4-1 victory over the
Oakland Athletics on Thursday
night.
“That’s what you’re supposed to
do on your birthday,” manager Joe
Girardi said.
Pettitte (6-5) bounced back from
giving up a career high-tying 10
runs last Saturday against Kansas
City to shut down the A’s and tie
Ron Guidry with his 170th victory
with New York. Pettitte allowed
one run and five hits in a seasonhigh eight innings.
That’s the kind of performance
the Yankees had been missing from
Pettitte of late. After opening the
season with three wins in his first
four starts, Pettitte has struggled
the past seven weeks. Expected to
be an anchor of the staff, he was 24 with a 6.20 ERA in nine starts
heading into this game and a big
reason why the Yankees have been
so inconsistent this season.
The worst of those starts came
last Saturday, when the Royals battered him for 10 runs in 6 2-3
innings before New York rallied to
a 12-11 win.
“I had no doubt that he would
bounce back,” Girardi said. “I said

CELTICS 97 | LAKERS 91 (THURS.)
Even Kobe Bryant can’t save the Lakers in Game 4
By JOHN NADEL
Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Even Kobe
Bryant couldn’t save the Los
Angeles Lakers, who find themselves on the brink of elimination
after one of the biggest collapses in
NBA finals history.
The Lakers led Boston by as
many as 24 points in the second
quarter and by 20 midway through
the third before the Celtics rallied
for a 97-91 victory Thursday night
and a 3-1 series lead.
No team has ever come back
from such a deficit in the finals.
“We let a huge opportunity slip
away,” Bryant said. “It’s a huge
loss, no doubt about it.”
After two free throws by
Vladimir Radmanovic with 6:04
left in the third quarter gave the
Lakers a 70-50 lead, they were
outscored 47-21 to finish the game.
It all started with a 21-3 run to finish the third period.
“We
just
fell
apart,”
Radmanovic said. “I have no explanation. They made a huge comeback, you have to give them credit.
We’ll see the tape tomorrow, see
exactly what the mistakes were.”
Boston’s comeback was remindful of the Lakers’ rally from a 95-71
deficit to draw within two points
late in Game 2 before the Celtics
scored the last four points for a
108-102 victory.
“Not like it. We didn’t win it,”
Radmanovic said. “They found a
way to do it.”
The Celtics can win their NBArecord 17th championship Sunday
night at Staples Center, where the
Lakers had gone 9-0 in the postseason and won 15 straight games dating to March 28 before this improbable defeat.
Bryant shot 6-for-19 from the
field and scored 10 of his 17 points
in the fourth quarter. The other
Lakers’ starters all reached double
figures, but the contributions were
minimal down the stretch. Bryant
shot 4-of-8 and his teammates went
4-of-13 in the final period.
According to the Elias Sports
Bureau, the comeback was the
biggest in the finals since 1971,
surpassing Houston’s comeback
from a 20-point deficit to Orlando
13 years ago.
“They’re very depressed about
that,” Lakers coach Phil Jackson
said of his players. “They’re
resilient. They have disappointments, they come back. This is not
over. The series is not over.”
The odds are, however, stacked
heavily against the Lakers. They
have got to win Sunday night and
then win twice in Boston, where the
Celtics have a 12-1 record in the
postseason.
“We’re not thinking about beating them three straight,” Bryant
said of what the Lakers have to do
to win their 15th championship.
“We’re thinking about beating them
Sunday.
“We’ve got to take the good
things that we did well in this game
and understand what we did in the
third quarter and move on from
there. They played great in the third
quarter. We played like crap.”
Sasha Vujacic, a hero in the
Lakers’ 87-81 victory in Game 3,
shot 1-for-9 and had three points in
Game 4, and allowed Ray Allen to
drive around him for a gameclinching layup with 16.4 seconds
remaining, giving the Celtics a
five-point lead.

U.S. Open
He finished his round with
a fairway metal that hung in
the gray skies and landed on
the green at the par-5 ninth,
running just over the back.
Woods chipped to 6 feet and
made the birdie, just moments
after Appleby had made his on
the 18th.
“I was just hanging around,
hanging around,” Woods said.
“This golf course will bite you
quick. You’ve just got to hang
in there and stay patient.”
Woods almost always bites
back at Torrey Pines, where he
has
won
the
Buick
Invitational a record six times.
This one is far more meaningful, and his late charge left
him in great position to chase
a U.S. Open title that has eluded him since 2002 at Bethpage
Black, the last time it was held
on a municipal golf course.
Mickelson, a San Diego
native and three-time winner
at Torrey Pines, could not
keep up in the featured pairing
with Woods.
He again played without a
driver in the bag, and this time
it might have hurt him. Lefty
could not reach the par-5 13th,
where Woods got home in two
and made eagle, and he was
A’s
before the game I had a feeling that he would have a good
game. It took him a little
while to find his rhythm but
he just seemed to really pick it
up after that.”
Pettitte retired the final 12
batters he faced after the first
two batters reached in the
fifth. He pitched his best once
the Yankees went ahead after
blowing leads his previous
two starts.
“After the grand slam I was
just telling myself, ’Don’t you
dare give this lead up after the
last two games,”’ Pettitte said.
“I didn’t have a really good
mind-set. That’s really not the
mind-set you want to have.
I’m thankful I was able to shut
them down.”
In a curious situation in the
ninth inning, Pettitte came out
to warm up even though closer Mariano Rivera had started
running in from the bullpen. It
proved to be only a decoy so
Girardi could give Rivera a
few more warmup pitches.
Rivera threw a hitless inning
for his 18th save in 18
Finals
most of the game,” Vujacic
said. “I don’t know what else
to say. We’re supposed to
adjust to the way the game
was played. We didn’t. It’s
hard to lose like that.
“We lost. It’s frustrating. It
hurts. But we’re not done
yet.”
Regarding Allen’s play,
Vujacic said: “Everything I
did was a foul. He got me. It
was a good basket. It was a
bad decision on my part.”
Vujacic said he was never
able to find his shooting
rhythm.
30 yards behind Woods on the
sixth hole, putting his
approach on the tongue of a
bunker that led to one of his
six bogeys.
Mickelson was at 4-over
146 and in a tie for 35th in a
hometown U.S. Open he
called a “once in a lifetime”
chance.
Only
eight
players
remained under par on a cityowned golf course that has
been universally praised as
fair — a word seldom heard at
the U.S. Open — but not necessarily easy.
Woods and a few others
only made it look that way.
Miguel Angel Jimenez of
Spain made a quiet charge,
and his birdie on the par-5
ninth — three groups behind
the circus following the top
three players in the world —
gave him a tournament-best
66. He was at 1-under 141,
along with Lee Westwood of
England (71), Davis Love III
(69) and D.J. Trahan (69).
“If you’re 1 under par
through two rounds in a U.S.
Open, you’re doing something
right,” Trahan said. “Like
anybody will tell you, this
isn’t a birdie contest. This is a
survival contest.”
Woods was in that survival
mode early, three-putting
from long range for bogey on
No. 10 and hitting his
approach into the right rough
for another bogey on No. 12.
He was sliding down the
leaderboard until smashing a
drive on the 614-yard 13th
hole — with the tee pushed all
the way back — and hitting a
fairway metal to 10 feet for
eagle.
But the momentum was
shifting as quickly as clouds
replaced patches of sunshine
along the Pacific.
He fell back with consecutive bogeys from the bunker
on the 16th and 17th holes and
hit yet another bunker off the
tee on the 18th, taking an easy
birdie away. And his drive on
No. 1, his 10th hole, was well
right, which worked in his
favor. Instead of being in the
ankle-deep kikuya grass, it
was just inside the cart path on
a clean lie.
The 8-iron from 157 yards
was pure, and so was the
birdie putt. Just like that,
Woods came to life and hardly looked like a guy who had
been gone from tournament
golf for two months.
“Whether you call it a zone
or not, I got into a rhythm,”
Woods said. “I’ve been there
before. I’ve had nice rounds
like that. I was just trying to
get back to even par. I just
happened to make some putts.
That was it.”
chances.
Rivera has saved 52 of
Pettitte’s wins, three shy of
tying the record held by
Dennis Eckersley for Bob
Welch with Oakland, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.
“I have no problem with
Mariano coming in and closing out my games, that’s for
sure,” Pettitte said.
Joe Blanton (3-9) held the
Yankees scoreless through
five innings, allowing only
one runner to reach third base.
Derek Jeter then opened the
sixth with an infield single
that second baseman Mark
Ellis knocked down but
couldn’t control. Blanton then
walked Bobby Abreu and
Alex Rodriguez to load the
bases and appeared upset with
umpire Paul Nauert’s strike
zone.
Matsui then drove a 1-1
pitch over the right-field wall
for his fifth career grand slam
to give the Yankees a 4-1 lead.
“It was huge in the sense to
be able to get a couple runs in
that situation,” Matsui said
through an interpreter. “That
was huge for the team.”
That proved to be more
than enough to deal Blanton
another loss at the Coliseum.
He allowed four runs and six
hits in 6 2-3 innings to drop to
1-7 in 10 starts here this season.
“A couple of close pitches
didn’t go his way that inning,
but he’s going to have a lot of
borderline pitches because of
his great control,” manager
Bob Geren said. “In his last
two outings he’s been throwing the ball better than he has
all year. Joe is on his game.”
Oakland got on the board
first on an RBI single by
Carlos Gonzalez in the second
inning, but that’s all the A’s
could manage in what is
becoming a familiar pattern.
Oakland was unable to add to
the lead despite putting runners on second and third with
one out in the fifth. Bobby
Crosby struck out and Jack
Cust flied out to the warning
track in left field.
Oakland has been held to
less than two runs 11 times in
the past 40 games. Oakland
has scored more than half of
its runs (89 of 173) in just
eight games in that stretch.
“We’re either scoring a lot
or not at all,” Crosby said.
“We need to have consistent
at-bats.”
“I was struggling as soon as
I got into the game,” he said.
Lamar Odom, who struggled mightily in the first three
games, came alive in this one
with 19 points and 10
rebounds. But he had only
four points and two rebounds
in the second half.
“It’s a humbling experience
— to be putting the pressure
on them and then to be sitting
in here thinking about how
we’re going to come back
from 3-1,” Odom said. “They
beat us in the second half with
their second effort, every way
you can basically lose a game.
We let execution affect our
defensive play and they took
the game away from us.”
Bryant had 10 assists, but
could have had several others
had the Lakers not misfired
time and again in the second
half. Pau Gasol, who had 17
points and 10 rebounds, failed
to convert a dunk in the late
going, and Jordan Farmar
missed a 3-pointer with less
than 3 minutes to go that
could have tied the game.
The Lakers never trailed
until Eddie House’s jumper
with 4:07 remaining put the
Celtics on top 84-83. Boston
never looked back after that.
Bryant had three points and
three fouls in the first half,
failing to make a field goal
until the opening minute of
the third quarter. He has made
only 38 field goals in 88
attempts in the finals.

The year ahead could prove
to be one of multiple new
interests scattered throughout
your regularly scheduled
affairs, making for very few
dull moments. Their presence
will help create a positive,
happy environment.
GEMINI (May 21-June
20) -- Regardless of your
plans for the day, relax and go
with the flow should something cause a schedule change.
Otherwise, you will needlessly make yourself miserable.
CANCER (June 21-July
22) -- If something bothers
you, don’t suffer in silence
and make everyone else feel
uncomfortable. Express your
misgivings and talk things out
with friends who can help
resolve your feelings.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -You might not like it when an
outsider invades your parameter of independence. However,
before you get angry, see what
“it” is all about. Something
quite worthwhile could result.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.
22) -- Don’t be too set in your
thinking, or you will reject a
good, creative solution for
something that might work
out far better than your original answer. Don’t be your
worst enemy.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23)
-- Don’t ignore your inner
voice. It is providing several
hints about a situation that is
pushing you in the wrong
direction. If you get this perception, act on it to avoid a
bad mistake.
business tycoon, is 62; Boy George (1961-),
singer, is 47; Steffi Graf (1969-), tennis player,

TODAY’S
SPORTS:
In
1876,
Philadelphia’s George Hall became the first
major league baseball player to hit for the cycle
-- a single, double, triple and home run in the
same game.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
22) -- If you want to complete
an important endeavor for
which others have offered to
help, don’t sit around waiting
for them to join in. They
might have meant well, but
circumstances may have
changed.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23Dec. 21) -- Although things
may not work out as planned,
don’t let it disturb you. You
might be surprised at what a
better situation these outside
influences produce.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19) -- You might not like
a certain assignment being
foisted on you, but to your
surprise you will get a great
deal of personal satisfaction
TODAY’S QUOTE: “Any mind that is
capable of a real sorrow is capable of good.” - Harriet Beecher Stowe, “Uncle Tom’s Cabin”
TODAY’S FACT: General of the Armies,
the highest rank in the Army, has only been
held by one living person: John Pershing.
TODAY’S MOON: Between first quarter
(June 10) and full moon (June 18).
out of handling the responsibility so well.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 19) -- The secret to success is simple: Give what you
hope to gain. Sharing something that comes your way
with others will turn out to be
the happiest moment of your
day.
PISCES (Feb. 20-March
20) -- Do not discount the suggestions of others. By the
same token, though, do not
treat your ideas with indifference, either. Work things out
in a manner where each
expression can beneficially be
used.
ARIES (March 21-April
19) -- Even though you might
prefer operating alone, you
will actually be far happier
when involved in a collective
endeavor for an unselfish
cause. Give generously of
yourself.
TAURUS (April 20-May
20) -- You will have an opportunity to get to know a recent
acquaintance better, and this
person is someone you may
not have thought too highly of
previously. Your change of
opinion will pleasantly surprise you.
Know where to look for
romance and you’ll find it.

Some contemplation on the responsabilities of fathers
Dear Readers: We’d like to wish all the
fathers and father figures in our reading audience a happy and wonderful Father’s Day. This
message recently came to our mailbox and we
thought it deserved some column space. We
hope you do, too:
Dear Annie: As a 67-year-old AfricanAmerican male, I have a special Father’s Day
message. For over two decades, I have worked
directly with young African-Americans. I have
been a student and teacher of AfricanAmerican history for more than 40 years and
have conducted countless workshops and
classes on self-esteem, historical perspective,
cultural awareness, personal responsibility,
youth empowerment, academic improvement,
career development, effective parenting and
family stability.
During this time, I have seen -- and still see
-- too many young African-Americans who
have given up hope. They simply don’t believe
in themselves. They don’t think they are worthy or deserving of “the good life.”
ANNIE’S MAILBOX
By Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar
By now, we know all too well the negative
statistics and debilitating realities relating to
unemployment, prison populations, femaleheaded households, high school and college
graduation rates, entrepreneurial opportunities,
AIDS infection rates, health care and mental
health concerns and teenage pregnancy. In
most socioeconomic factors, AfricanAmericans are lagging behind. The story is
punctuated with alienation, frustration, anger
and hopelessness. Somehow, this hemorrhaging must stop.
For things to get better, black fathers and
other adult males have to do more as parents,
providers,
protectors
and
promisers.
Regardless of how our condition came about,
WE are our solutions and salvation. I propose

a basic and simplistic plan for empowering our
children, families and communities:
1. We need a strong and supportive family
base, beginning with a married mother and
father. While this may not always be possible,
it should be seriously sought. Not only is it
necessary and proper, to do otherwise is debilitating and destructive.
2. We need a solid educational foundation.
In the 21st century, it is almost impossible to
make it otherwise. A good education is like life
insurance -- it is much better to have it than
not.
3. We need a viable means of economy and
support. We cannot expect others to do those
things we should do for ourselves. There is no
such thing as a free lunch. We must learn to
work harder and smarter, and for ourselves.
We can do this, for we are a strong, resilient
and resourceful people. And, more importantly,
our children, families and communities
deserve no less. We must overcome these
human conditions of academic inadequacy,
family instability, economic poverty, social
deprivation and political inequity.
Simply put, the time has come for AfricanAmerican men, especially fathers, to accept
collective responsibility for making things
happen and for bringing about positive
changes. We are capable. All we need to do is
rededicate ourselves to our cause. Let us truly

cial. It could be a new beginning.
The challenges that lie before us are about
will and commitment. Do we, as AfricanAmerican men and fathers, care enough about
our children, families and communities? Much
of the solution to our dilemma is within our
grasp and this is as it should be. We must rise
to the occasion. To begin this journey on
Father’s Day 2008 -- what a powerful statement and empowering act that would be! -John Lewis Horton
Dear John Lewis Horton: There are many
young African-American men who are responsible and involved fathers, but some men,
black and white, have not yet learned the value
of this most important obligation. Studies show
that fathers have a tremendous impact on the
educational and emotional development of
their children. Your words speak not only to
African-American males, but to all men. Thank
you.

Red Cross
what it has meant to him to
relocate to a new country and
become trained as a caregiver.
Dellanira Chang was just
14 years old when her uncle
drowned in the Russian River.
The young woman turned that
tragedy into a motivating
force for her own life, and
now she is both a lifeguard
and CPR instructor with the
local Red Cross. She will talk
about how the Red Cross has
affected her life.
The event will also provide
attendees with some of the
experience of a disaster.
Meals will be served from the
Emergency Response Vehicle,
and there will be a display of
food, cots and blankets avail-
able to families that have lost
their homes.
CEO Tim Miller and board
Chairman Vern Losh will also
review other Red Cross activities from 2007/08, when disaster response and safety preparedness took place in both
Sonoma and Mendocino
counties, local disaster volunteers helped out following the
terrible San Diego wildfires,
and volunteers helped members of the military through
our Service to the Armed
Forces. Throughout the past
year, local Red Cross members made a significant difference in reducing suffering
here at home and around the
world, by donating funds, volunteering and getting trained.
The annual meeting of the
Red Cross is the time to publicly thank the community for
those efforts.
Losh, Miller and others
will also provide information
about the local Red Cross
Chapter’s finances, including
highlighting major donors and
audited budget figures.
The program will also
highlight the chapter’s health
and safety programs, active
throughout two counties;
“Vamos a Nadar” (“Let’s Go
Swimming”) and “CPR
Saturday,” two programs
offered free to the community
that are keeping us all safer;
and the organization’s many
other programs.
ABOUT
AMERICAN
RED CROSS, SONOMA &
MENDOCINO COUNTIES
American Red Cross is a
neutral, humanitarian organization that provides relief to
victims of disasters, and prepares people to prevent and
respond to emergencies. Like
all Red Cross chapters, the
chapter is self-sustaining and
receives no funding from the
national organization.
All disaster assistance and
assistance to members of the
armed forces provided by the
chapter is free and made possible by voluntary donations
of time and money by the people
of
Sonoma
and
Mendocino counties.
Donations can be made at
www.arcsm.org
<http://www.arcsm.org> , via
mail to American Red Cross,
Sonoma & Mendocino counties, 5297 Aero Drive, Santa
Rosa, CA 95403, or by phone
at 577-7600 (Sonoma
County) or 463-0112
(Mendocino County).
Fires
across the road,” White said.
“We were taking significant
heat. The heat was so intense,
the windshield began cracking.”
White and another firefighter were treated for minor burns.
In recent days, hot temperatures, steady winds and tinderdry vegetation have fueled the
destructive blazes around the
state.
In Santa Cruz County, officials said many residents evacuated because of a wildfire that
has scorched 600 acres and
burned at least 10 homes in the
Bonny Doon community were
allowed to return to their homes
Friday.
