My $0.02: Old memories

brought back
Dear Editor:
I use my fathers old WWII heavy
canvas sea bag to take my shirts to
Rockys Cleaners. It is marked with my
name and Troop 401 Claremont. I used it
while a Boy Scout at Camp Circle B
above Inyokern, California.
It brought back memories of being a
Boy Scout and as I bunked with our
Scoutmaster Clayton W. Atwood one
summer at camp. He had been a Pharmacists Mate in the Navy, and was at the
fall of Guam on December 7, 1941. Subsequently, he had been a Japanese Prisoner of War until 1945.
This weekend I viewed the movie Unbroken about Lou Zaperini. When I got
home, I googled Clayton W. Atwood
and read his after-war testimony regarding the warden s treatment of those in
prison camp. The movie brought Mr. Atwoods testimony to life.

I wish I had thanked him for his service, sacrifice and for being Scoutmaster
of Troop 401.
Thanks a $1 million, Mr. Atwood.

Emotions run high over start of drivers license law
ctivism remains alive

and well in the Claremont as evidenced by
Tuesdays demonstration surrounding Assembly Bill 60
(AB 60), a new law that went
into effect on January 1.
AB 60 requires that the Department
of Motor Vehicles issue a drivers license to any applicant who can prove
identity, California residency and can
meet all other testing requirements, regardless of immigration status.
Equipped with signs that read Secure the Border and No to AB 60,
nearly a dozen members of Claremontbased We the People Rising stood
outside city hall and took their turn on
the bullhorn shouting, Repeal AB 60,
Put America first, as an international
news crew filmed nearby.
Statistics show that even in our state
the majority of voters do not accept that
people in our country illegally should
be given licenses, so its going against
the will of the American people in this
state, says Robin Hvidston, an Upland
resident and executive director of We
the People Rising. Our issue is the tax

Raul Rodriquez of Apple Valley uses a bullhorn to rally opponents of Assembly Bill AB 60 in front of Claremonts City Hall
on Tuesday. Both sides of the immigration debate staged protests in Claremont over the new state law that gives drivers licenses to illegal immigrants.
City manager receives pay raise after positive review
ts been three years since City Manager Tony Ramos took office and, by
most accounts, Claremont is the better
for it. Under his leadership, the city has
seen an average budget surplus of over
$1.5 million annually and an increase in
the general reserve fund from 27 percent
to 31 percent.
In 2013-14 alone, higher than expected residential

and commercial development activity within the city
resulted in a General Fund surplus of $2,830,093. The
surplus revenues were a result of conservative estimates in development, a practice city staff has developed as a direct result of the financial hardships the
city faced in 2008-09 and 2009-10, when severe
budget cuts had to be made to maintain a balanced
general fund budget.
The city is in a very strong fiscal position, but at
the same time, weve had some reduced staff levels,
Council member Sam Pedroza said. The challenge
for [Mr. Ramos] is the need to continue to do more
with less. Its one of the big things that he works on.
Not only to maintain that position, but to continue to
be responsive as a city.
According to Mr. Ramos employment agreement,
the city council is required to perform an annual employee evaluation, which council conducted on November 25, 2014. The council members unanimously
agreed that Mr. Ramos is doing an excellent job and
exceeding expectations as city manager in managing
projects, maintaining strong financial stability and
serving as a leader both within the city organization
and in the community.
I think thats where hes really excelled, Mr. Pedroza told the COURIER. Getting the city through
this water issue process and helping the council navi-
gate from the staff perspectivethere were tons of

legal issues and we were still able to come together
on this. Also, his ability to maintain and build on relationships with the Claremont Colleges, Claremont
Unified School District and other local cities has been
invaluable.
Following Mr. Ramos evaluation, council directed
city attorney Sonia Carvalho to prepare a second
amendment to the city managers employment agreement to include cost of living increases to salary, an
increase in vacation accrual rates as well as update
specific terms.
The amendment provides a cost of living increase
in the city managers annual salary for three consecutive years from $210,997 for 2014-15 (1 percent) to
$215,217 for 2015-16 (2 percent) and to $219,521 for
2016-17 (2 percent). The amendment also provides
four weeks vacation during each fiscal year as well as
nine months severance pay should Mr. Ramos be terminated without cause prior to December 25, 2017.
In addition, Ms. Carvalho was also directed by city
council to prepare a resolution to recognize the city
managers performance with a one-time merit award
payment of $16,796.21 (eight percent of the city managers salary) and a cash-out of 35.12 hours of vacation pay in the amount of $3,750.12.
Over the past year, the city council found that Mr.
Ramos dedication and leadership had been manifest
in part by working through vacation to ensure that
council priorities and projects were timely and successfully completed. Therefore, the council supported
compensating the city manager for his efforts by approving the cash-out.
Both the amendment and the resolution appeared
before council during a meeting held on December 9.
Council member Corey Calaycay pulled the item
from the calendar for further discussion before the
vote.
I do not wish to overshadow the outstanding per-
formance of our city manager, explained Mr. Calaycay. The only reason I asked to pull this is to separate the two items because the one item includes a
cost of living increase and, in all fairness to the other
staff members, Ive objected to cost of living increases. Ive voted against it for other staff members
and to be fair to them, I cannot, in good conscious,
vote for it for the city manager.
Council member Opanyi Nasiali was of the same
opinion.
I think we are all in agreement that the city manager has done a very good job for this city and we are
very proud of him for that performance, he said.
But, I am too, going to vote no.
Despite their opposition, the second amendment to
the city managers contract passed with a 3-2 vote,
followed by a unanimous vote adopting the resolution
approving the merit award and vacation pay cash-out.
Mr. Ramos has served as Claremonts city manager
since December 2011, after serving as the Assistant
City Manager since 2006. The University of Phoenix
graduate began his career in 1979 with the city of
West Covinas Parks and Recreation Department and
has worked in city government for over 35 years.
Mr. Ramos experience in public service has
proved to be an invaluable asset working for a city
like Claremont, according to Mr. Pedroza.
Claremont is a high maintenance city, said Mr.
Pedroza. We have a very sophisticated public and
the responsiveness is so high. Tonys able to manage
that very effectively.
Over the next year, Mr. Ramos will oversee the potential acquisition of the Claremont water system, and
steward completion of several master plans for the city,
including the Claremont Hills Wilderness Park Master
Plan, Foothill Boulevard Master Plan and the Watershed Management Plan for compliance with MS4.

Composite sketch of La Verne

double homicide suspect released
Los Angeles
County Sheriffs
are looking for a
man suspected
in a double
homicide that
occurred Christmas week in La
Verne. The suspect is described as a
white or Hispanic male in
his late-20s or
early-30s, and
stands 5 feet 2
inches to 5 feet
8 inches tall
he Los Angeles County Sheriffs

Department has released a composite sketch of a suspect in the
double homicide of Armie and Shirley
Isom of La Verne. The elderly couple
was killed in the entryway of their home
on Friday, December 26 at about 1 p.m.
The suspect is described as a white or Hispanic

male in his late-20s or early-30s. On the day of the
crime, he was reportedly dressed in a dark-hooded
jacket and carrying a large backpack.
As the COURIER previously reported, the La
Verne couple was attacked in their home on the 300
block of Roughrider Road.
Initial reports from the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department were conflicting, however, investigators have since determined that Mr. Isom died of
blunt-force trauma, while Ms. Isoms injuries were
said to be caused by both blunt- and sharp-force
trauma. The 74-year-old woman died at the home;
her husband, 89, died of injuries later at the hospital.
Lt. Dave Coleman of the LA County Sheriffs
Department Homicide Division said in a news conference this week that the suspect was wearing hiking attire, refuting neighbor reports that the
individual appeared homeless or scruffy. Lt.
Coleman also reported that a weapon was recovered
at the scene, but no additional information was
given.
Investigators initially said he was described as a
Hispanic male, 25 to 30 years old, weighing about
160 pounds and standing anywhere from 5 feet 7
inches to 5 feet 11 inches tall. He was said to be
wearing Levis-style blue jeans and a hoodie sweatshirt that was either orange, blue or green. Also, it
was reported that he was wearing an orange or
green backpack. Based on conflicting eyewitness
reports, sheriffs investigators later said that no suspect description was available.
According to Lt. Aaron Fate of the Claremont Police Department, residents on the 4100 block of
Tenango Roadlocated just south of Base Line
Road and Live Oak Canyon, where the crime took
placehad seen a man matching the description of
the suspect walking down the street with blood
stains on his sweatshirt.
Police were aiding in the search at about 2 p.m.
on December 26 when a Claremont resident flagged
down the officer to say he or she had seen the suspect calmly walking down Tenango about 20 minutes prior. However, no one called 9-1-1 or reported
by telephone at the time they saw the suspect.
Anyone with information regarding the suspect
should call the Sheriff's Homicide Bureau at (323)
890-5500. To report anonymously, call Crime
Stoppers at (800) 222-8477, or text the letters
TIPLA plus your tip to 274637, or visit the website

Vandals resolved to ruin New Years
Day for one Claremont resident who
woke up to discover her property pelted
with eggs. The unknown suspects flew
the coop after throwing eggs at the home
and a Kia Sorrento located on the 400
block of St. Augustine. The victim estimated the damage to be $5,000 to repaint
the car and replace the bumper, pressurewash the driveway and repaint the side
of the house. By California law, the
penalties for vandalism resulting in over
$400 in damage may include a jail sentence of between one and three years,
and/or a fine of up to $10,000 or even
more if the damage is very extensive.
Last year, singer Justin Bieber was sentenced to two years probation and
$80,900 in fines to pay for damages after
he was busted egging the house of one of
his neighbors.

A Pomona man was arrested for domestic violence after attacking his fianc

dollars. Theyve opened four special offices to people

who are here illegally. They should open four special
offices for our homeless, to our veterans, to our unemployed Americans and that is our issue. This is energy
and money that is not being spent in the best interest of
the state.
Latino/Latina Roundtable Vice President Angela Sanbramo disagrees. Outside city hall, the Pitzer graduate,
along with half a dozen other people in support of the bill,
believes AB 60 is in the best interest of all Californians.
Licensed drivers, regardless of immigration status, will
make the roadways safer for all.
AB 60 is going to allow everyone thats driving to
take a test and pass a test to get a license, says Ms.
Sanbramo. Driving in California is a necessity. You
need to go to work, to go to school, to take your kids to
the dentist. Its not like you can live in California without driving. Id much rather see everyone that is going
to be behind the wheel be tested and to have a license.
And I think thats the issue.
AB 60 allows illegal immigrants to apply for all noncommercial drivers licenses offered through the DMV,
including Class C (most cars), motorcycles, travel trailers and some RVs. The license can be used to drive, as
well as a legal state identification.
An AB 60-issued license will differ in appearance
from a standard California drivers license in that the
front will state Federal Limits Apply on the top right
corner above the class designation, in the same color
and font as other words. Additionally, the back of the
card will include the statement not valid for official
federal purposes. The license will otherwise look similar to those currently issued California drivers licenses.
The DMV expects to receive 1.4 million applications
during the first three years following the inception of
AB 60.
The DMV has an AB 60 website at
www.ab60.dmv.ca.gov, which contains a complete list
of acceptable documents that can be used to verify identity and residency, a copy of the driver handbook, sample knowledge tests, appointment information and other
materials.
Online appointments can be scheduled as far as 90
days in advance at www.dmv.ca.gov or by calling (800)
777-0133.

Lukas Nelson, Shooter Jennings to perform at local benefit
new generation of outlaws will

take Claremont by storm on Saturday, January 17 when Shooter
Jennings and Lukas Nelson & Promise of
the Real perform at Bridges Auditorium.
The sons of country legends Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson, Lukas and
Shooter will be joined by guest musician
Peter Harper.
Proceeds from the Americana and roots rock extravaganza will benefit the Claremont Community Foundation (CCF), a nonprofit organization championing
charitable giving to improve the quality of local life.
CCF beneficiaries include, among other causes, Habitat for Humanity, The Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden, The Red Cross, Special Olympics, The Inland
Pacific Ballet, Foothill Aids Project and Friends of the
Claremont Library.
In the last couple of years, CCF has added a concert
to its roster of fundraisers, which includes the yearly
Party Parade and Mi Casa Su Casa, a benefit organized
jointly with the Claremont Educational Foundation.
Previous performances included shows by noted local
musicians Michael Ryan and Rod Gilfrey, both held at
Garrison Theatre.
This year, CCF board chair Paul Steffen and his fellow board members decided to expand the gig to include a national act. Mr. Steffen reached out to local
talent buyer Robin Young, who managed to nab Lukas
for the show.
A change of venue was in order when the folks who
run Garrison Theater said they werent really set up to
do a rock and roll show and suggested Ms. Young talk
to Kurt Beardsley, the production manager at Bridges
Auditorium. Mr. Beardsley was amenable to setting up
a gig with Lukas Nelson, an able singer songwriter who
classifies the sound he and his quartet has crafted as
cowboy hippie surf rock.
Mr. Beardsley had another suggestion: raise the
stakes by getting Shooter Jennings on the bill. As a big
fan, he knew that Shooter occasionally played with
Lukas, bound together not so much as by a matching
sound but by a shared enthusiasm for roots-based music
and a shared history. Both musicians pretty much grew
up on tour buses, with Lukas traveling the country with
the elder Mr. Nelson and Shooter joining his dad Waylon and mom Jessi Colter on the road. With Shooter on
board, Bridges Auditorium became co-producer of the
concert.
Ms. Young decided local talent should also be represented and asked Peter Harper to serve as an opening
act. Once known more for his metal sculptures than for
music, Mr. Harper has delved increasingly into music in
recent years, singing and playing original music on the
four-string tenor guitar.
He played at Bridges a couple years ago with the
Mali All-Stars and was on the roster of last years folk
music festival. Hes very popular. Hes made a lot of

strides in a short amount of time. Im kind of proud of

him, Ms. Young said.
The local angle is also represented by the presence of
Promise of the Real bassist Corey McCormick. Mr.
McCormick grew up in Montclair where, as a budding
musician, he was no stranger to the Claremont music
scene. He stopped in from time to time at the Folk
Music Center, which was founded by Mr. Harpers
grandparents Charles and Dorothy Chase. Today,
Peters mother Ellen Chase is manager of the store.
Mr. McCormick, who lives in Pasadena, started playing trumpet in school and played the horn all the way
through his first year at Citrus College. Located in
Glendora, the community college is noted for its strong
music program.
My dad had a guitar laying around the house and I
learned some piano, he said. I decided to play upright
bass one day. I transferred to Long Beach State, finished my degree in classical bass performance and the
rest is history.
After teaching in the music department at Citrus for
five years, teaching bass and guitar students and starting a jazz combo, Mr. McCormick met Lukas and was
impressed. In 2010, he came in as the bands third bass
player.
My first impression is that he sounds exactly like
Willie and plays guitar like Stevie Ray Vaughn, he
said. I saw potential with LukasI thought this could
really turn into a real band where I could make a career
out of it.
Lukas may have some an impressive pedigree, but
he and his band arent exactly coasting on Willies coat
tails. The first two years Mr. McCormick was in the
band, which is completely independent, they played
500 shows.
The world has changed for us as musicians. Selling
records is pretty much over. Touring is how you do it,
he explained. What were trying to do is grow slowly
as a band and build an audience so we can always tour
and be successful doing that. Everyone thinks Im rich,
but were still struggling like any other band.

The bassists influences are heavily rooted in jazz,
and the genres focus on improvisation has proved helpful as he jams with Lukas, who is gaining notice for his
musicianship.
Its interesting to play with Lucas, Mr. McCormick
said. He grew up playing with his dadits kind of
his only reference pointso he plays a lot like his dad.
His dad floats over the time. Hes not really playing
time. The way he phrases vocals and guitar is very
much on his own plane.
Some would say hes loose, Mr. McCormick continued. Its a feel thing, to know that hes doing what
hes doing, and I have to lock into the drummer. We interact and jam a lot and play off each other. I really like
playing with him live because hes very high energy.
Given nearly nonstop touring, Mr. McCormick
works hard to keep his own energy level.
The challenge is trying to stay normal on the road,
he said. I have a rule: no matter what night before, I
get up in the morning, go to the gym, practice my bass
and be productive in the morning. It turns into not
sleeping much, but I take naps during the day. I made a
decision that no matter what, Ive got to stay normal.
Its easy to turn into a zombie and sleep till two.
Mr. Nelson is not only influenced by his dads playing style but by his well-earned reputation for philanthropy. Willie Nelson has notably been active with
Farm Aid, done benefits for cancer research and this
past September joined Neil Young in a concert protesting the Keystone Pipeline.
Im hoping we can get more involved as years go
around, he said. To me, thats what being an artist is,
to have a voice.
As far as his fellow voice in the upcoming Bridges
gig, Mr. McCormick has high praise for Waylon Jennings son, who has forged his own reputation in the
realms of country and rock.
Shooters rad, he said. Weve done a couple tours
with him in the past.
Tabatha Abeyta became the Claremont Community
Foundations new executive director after longtime director Nikki Cleaves retired on December 31.
Were so excited. First for the great music thats
coming out of these young people and also that the
foundation can have exposure to larger community,
said CCFs brand-new executive director Tabatha
Abeyta. Were hoping to expand to be able to give
more throughout the year and impact more lives.
The Claremont Community Foundation is an important part of the community, Mr. Steffen agreed.
People can donate money and we can give grants that
most benefit the community. Its a pivotal organization
that makes Claremont a better place.
Tickets for the concert, which runs from 8 to 10:30
p.m., range from $33 for balcony seats to $108 for a
spot in the pit. For tickets, visit Pomona.edu/bridges or
call the Box Office at (909) 607-1139.

Ms. Eck always expected to have a sizable number of international students

from various religious traditions in her
classes on World Religions. But, in 1991,
that expectation took on a new twist. The
number of students from various religious
traditions did not change but their addresses did. Instead of coming from far
away places many of the students that fall
semester lived in US cities.
When I first met these new students,
Ms. Eck said, Muslims from Providence,
Hindus from Baltimore, Sikhs from
Chicago, Jains from New Jerseythey

signaled to me the emergence in America
of a new cultural and religious reality
about which I knew next to nothing.
Twenty-four years later, Professor Eck
is widely recognized as the leading authority on religious pluralism in America
and the project she directs at Harvard is
an invaluable resource of information on
the radically changing religious landscape
of the United States today. See www.pluralismproject.org.
One of Ms. Ecks major contributions
is the way she understands the concept of
pluralism. She writes, Pluralism is not di-

University and director of the

versity. Diversity is simply a fact of life

in America today and in many places
around the world. Likewise, pluralism is
not tolerance, which implies that we just
put up with one another. By contrast, she
contends that pluralism is the energetic
engagement with diversity.
The Claremont Interfaith Council
(CIC) is one local attempt to practice this
kind of energetic pluralism in our community. Each month, leaders of various
faith groups in and around Claremont
meet together at a local place of worship.
Getting to know one another, being in one
anothers sanctuaries and learning about
each others traditions are all important

first steps in inter-religious engagement.
CIC members also receive reports each
month from organizations and agencies
that focus on specific areas of social need
or concerns. This is a valuable way for religious communities to be informed and
involved. Inland Valley Hope Partner, an
agency that provides emergency services
for needy families, Claremont Homeless
Advocacy Program, The Interfaith Collaborative on Mental Health and The Interfaith Working Group for Middle-east
Peace are among the groups that make
regular reports at CIC meetings.
This monthly forum is also a place
where CIC members share new developments in their community life and someINTER-FAITHFULLY SPEAKING/

he first time my father left his home

state of New Jersey to travel outside
the New York metro area was courtesy of the United States government. In
1958, Uncle Sam was shipping him to Aberdeen, Maryland.
He was then transported to Fort Polk in Shreveport,
Louisiana (on a train that was stopped a short distance
into the journey south so that passengers could segregatedespite the fact that the US Supreme Court outlawed segregation in interstate transportation in 1946);
and finally to Fort Hood in Killeen, Texas, where he
would serve his country in the US Army.
The first time my mother went any great distance from
her native Garden State, I was there, too. It was 1959, and
we were flying in a piston-engine prop plane to the Lone
Star State to be with my dad. I was only six months old
but lucky for me, and unfortunately for the hapless viewers who would later sit through them, my mom took 8
mm home movies for most of the ride. When I watch
them now, I think she must have been awestruck by the
sensation of being up in the clouds.

When I was eight years old, my parents moved from
New Jersey to California. It might as well have been a
galaxy, far, far away to the friends and family we were
leaving behind. Air travel was still the domain of the upper
middle class: men wore suits and hats, and women
donned stockings and high heels to fly. The democratization of air travel, ushered in by PEOPLExpress low fares
in the early 1980s, was still a few years off.
I distinctly remember my Aunt Rosemarie, crying and
clinging to the open window as we shoved off on our adventure in 1967. We were like the Pilgrims leaving Plymouth, Englandand not just because we were driving
a Plymouth. With plane tickets and even phone calls at a
premium, who knew when we would hear from or see
her or the other folks we were leaving behind ever again?
Ive been revisiting those long-ago memories because

my son will soon be embarking on a journey that is matter-of-course now, but still feels epic to me: a trip to
Shanghai, China to study abroad for a semester. A commonplace phrase of futility from my childhood involved
digging ones way to China (a feat that could actually
only be accomplished in the Americas from Argentina).
China was a closed society for most of my childhood. My
only connection to China was the Bing Crosby-Bob Hope
1962 feature, The Road to Hong Kong.
My children have had passports since they were young
enough not to have any other form of ID and they have
trekked to Scotland, England, Germany, the Netherlands,
Spain, Israel and even to the site of another Crosby-Hope
classic, Morocco. My daughter studied abroad in Italy.
When my son is in China, he will be 6,500 miles
(10,500 kilometers) away. But when we want to hear his
voice, we wont have to grab every extension in the house,
as we did in 1968 when Grandma Edna called long distance to see how we were faring. Through WeChat and
other apps, well not only hear our son, but see his face
and surroundings. Im looking forward to this next adventureI only wish we could taste everything, too!
Where have all the urban trees gone?

by Mark von Wodtke, FASLA
ete Seegers Where

Have All the Flowers
Gone? is a popular
protest song, best known for
raising awareness against the
Vietnam War, the beginning of
the period of endless wars that
continue today. The song brings
attention to the human lives lost
and maimed during deadly conflicts.
Today, urban trees are also literally

being victimized by an endless war
against the environment perpetrated by
poor pruning and the use of poisonous
pesticides, chemical herbicides and

times invite the participation of the others.

In October, Temple Beth Israel announced the creation of an urban gardening project being developed with another
community agency, Uncommon Ground,
and invited CIC members to participate in
the inaugural ceremonies.
Finally, CIC is a place where the leaders of various religious traditions can explore topics and assist each others in
matters that concern all religious groups.
For the last few months, members of
council have been focussing on the environmental crisis and reporting on what
different groups are doing to address the
growth regulators, as well as artificial

fertilizers. Not surprisingly, there is a
chemical/industrial agriculture/landscape
industry complex practicing ecocide that
parallels the military-industrial complex
President Eisenhower warned about.
Their practices promulgate the profitable
use of poor pruning and poisons.
Because much of the public is not
aware of the dangers of these practices,
we again turn to verse and song to express truths that need to be shared in
order to stimulate positive change. This
ode, protesting what is happening to
urban trees, can be sung to the tune of
Where Have all the Flowers Gone?
Here is a summary of key concerns:
Like many communities, complacent
Claremont has become a battlefield in a
fight against the environment.
Poorly pruned urban trees stand like

amputees. Many trees die due to lack of
water, infertile soil, pollution, and urban
heat island effects which cause disease
and early decline, prematurely reducing
trees to carbon dioxide and methane that
further disrupts the climate.
Songbirds, no longer sustained by our
urban forest, are forced to find better
habitats. Butterflies and bees become
poisoned by pesticides which can also
contaminate ground water we drink.
Rain water, which can be intercepted
by trees and detained in their root zones,
instead goes down storm drains.
The urban forest, so beneficial to our
health and well being, disintegrates. Our
quality-of-life deteriorates.
People, attracted to our city of trees,
may leave this battlefield...property val-
issue. In December, an organization made

up of members of 15 local religious
groups called the Interfaith Sustainability
Council described the many environmental projects they have carried out in
recent years and made their experience
and resources available to CIC members.
Some Claremont residents know the
Claremont Interfaith Council through the
Annual Thanksgiving Service. In 2014,
nearly 400 Claremont neighbors from
many religions joined in a service at Our
Lady of the Assumption, led largely by
young people, giving thanks and reflect
on ways to build the common good.
Yet, for all the inter-religious efforts
being made in Claremont and other com-
munities around the county as well, the

fact remains that most of us know very little about other religious traditions. This
worries Professor Eck. This is how she
expresses her concern: The new religious
America requires a greater degree of literacy than is now the reality. I think it is
dangerous to live in such close quarters in
a society such as ours with a series of halfbaked truths and stereotypes functioning
as our guides to understanding of our religious nature.
One way that people can increase their
inter-religious literacy and work to build
a more pluralistic world is to resolve that,
in this New Year, they will make one
new friend from another religious tradition. A friend to know well enough to
take out for coffee, to invite home for

Let us hope people will work with nature to nurture urban forests that contribute so much to our quality-of-life.
Our war on the environment and all living things must end for people to thrive.

dinner, to talk honestly with about things

that matter most.
Few Americans have a friend whose
values and world view have been shaped
by religious traditions other than their
own. Yet it is friends like this who open
our eyes, break down our stereotypes, correct our misconceptions and help us become pluralistic people who energetically
engage the diversity around us.

SPORTS
CHS sports makes statement in 2015 conference action
ollowing the long holiday break

when most teams were involved in
tournaments, Claremont High
School sports got into full swing this
week with the first conference games of
the season.
Strong defense highlights basketball
Claremont boys basketball won a very
physical contest Tuesday at home over
Alta Loma 81-55. Claremonts defense
caused 29 turnovers, while offense featured a well-balanced scoring attack led
by sophomore Tyler Fraser and senior
Quincy Hailes who shared team scoring
honors with 13 points each. Sophomores
Tyler Risher chipped in with 11 points
and Davis Haley with 10 points respectively.
Girls basketball had mixed results during tournament play over the holiday
break. The Pack lost to St. Lucys 43-24
on December 27th, but beat Ganesha 5144 the day before. They also defeated
Pomona by the same score of 51-44 on
December 23, but lost to Katella 58-30
on the 22nd. Their record stands at 7-6.
Health issues impact soccer play
Girls soccer struggleda bit with injury
and illness at the end of the annual Claremont tournament and at the San Gorgornio Tournament after Christmas,
according to coach Tim Tracey.
The girls lost to Serrano 1-0 on December 29 and to Alta Loma 2-1 on De-
cember 27. They tied Redlands 1-1 also

on the 27th while getting a win against
Rim of the World 5-0 on the 26th and
tying Colton 1-1 that same day.
Nathan Armas jersey number is 0,
which is appropriate because that was the
total number of goals during the Packs
non-conference game against rival
Damien on Tuesday in Claremont.
Claremont seemed to be playing a very
conservative defensive game with a lot of
easy passing at midfield but had a hard
time getting the ball into scoring position.
In contrast, the Spartans were a bit overly
eager to get the ball in front of the net,
drawing multiple offside calls and wasting great opportunities.
To be fair, some credit has to go to
Armas and Claremonts other defensive
players, who effectively broke up several
opportunities presented to Damien, including free kicks within close range.
The key statistic still has to be shots on
goal, which were very low for both
teamsbut particularly low for the Pack,
who only took two.
Final score was 0-0 after regulation
time bringing Claremonts record to 7-13 as league play begins this week.
Boys basketball, girls basketball,
wrestling, boys soccer, girls soccer and
girls water polo all took on Ayala this
week. Results will be published in our
next edition.

night locked in a defensive battle and ended in a scoreless tie.
Elizabeth Betty Fern Faggard Bulkley

Loving mother and grandmother, pillar of strength
Calm, strong and independent to the
end, Betty Bulkley died peacefully on
December 28, 2014 in her own apartment at Claremont Manor as she had
wished, under hospice care after a recent
diagnosis of ovarian cancer. Just shy of
88, she was able to enjoy a big table
Thanksgiving and a joyful Christmas
day with her daughter and four generations of family, and told family she was
ready to go.
Born to J. Ward Faggard and Margaret Jones Faggard on January 10, 1928
in Wichita Falls, Texas, she spent her
early years in Texas and Kansas City,
Missouri, returning as a teenager to
Texas where she graduated at age 16 as
valedictorian of her high school class in
Corpus Christi. She moved with her parents to San Diego to be near her brother
Joe, a US Marine who was recovering in
the hospital after being seriously
wounded in the Pacific Theatre during
World War II.
As a freshman at Occidental College,
Betty met Cal Tech student Edward
Ned Bulkley when he volunteered to
pick up the Oxy girls for a dance
hosted at then all-male Cal Tech. The
family story reports that, as one of the
few students with his own car, Ned was
also asked to pick up an ice block for the
punch. The car was crowded, so Betty
volunteered to sit on the ice for the ride
to campus. This started them talking,
and the rest is history. Married on September 5, 1947, Mrs. Bulkley discontinued her formal education to earn instead
what she called her PHT degree,
working in a Pasadena office to Put Husband Through as he went on to complete
his electrical engineering degree program.
With the help of friends and Mr. Bulkleys father, they built their own home
on a steep hillside in South Pasadena
where they lived when their two daughters were born, Beverly in 1951 and
Katherine in 1954. In 1958 the family
moved to San Marino, where Mrs. Bulkley kept home and family clean and fed,
volunteered as a Girl Scout leader and
room mother and kept an immaculately

weed-free dichondra lawn while Ned
worked his way through a number of engineering positions. Although she never
drove a car, Betty was fully mobile,
walking, taking the bus or riding her bicycle wherever she needed to go. The
Bulkleys developed a common love of
musical theater and classical music during those years; this continued throughout her life, bringing her peace and comfort to the end.
During the kids growing-up years,
the family enjoyed camping, swimming
and sailing. Although Mrs. Bulkley was
an able crewmember for her husbands
sailboat-racing hobby, she preferred to
stay inside the bay since the ocean
waves made her seasick. If daughter
Beverly or another crew person wasnt
available for an outside race, she
would bravely climb aboard their 14foot dinghy, heeding Mr. Bulkleys directive to face aft when seasickness
struck so as to give the boat more forward propulsion and a competitive edge.
Never one for luxury travel, Betty enjoyed a few adventures beyond her
comfort zone at Neds behest, such as
sailing through the surf off the beach in
Hawaii, driving the unpaved logging
roads that paralleled the Al-Can Highway to get to Alaska (Ned would never
drive on a paved road if a dirt road led to
the same destination!) and living in

Japan briefly while he was there on a
work assignment.
After the untimely death of their
younger daughter and Mr. Bulkleys retirement, they left southern California
for the quiet of rural life in Oregon, settling in a log cabin on several acres near
the Rogue River. For 25 years, the couple lived simply on the land, using a
wood stove to heat the cabin in the winter and swimming to cool off in the summer. Their three granddaughters loved
visiting and have happy memories of
playing store and solitaire with their
doting grandmother, whose careful resource management produced all the
toys they neededcardboard boxes,
pine cones, acorns, toilet paper and paper towel rolls, pieces of string and a
creative imagination to play games with.
In the early 1990s, Mr. Bulkley developed Parkinsons disease and it became
increasingly difficult to care for him in
their home. Although she was resilient in
maintaining a physically demanding
lifestyle, when she fell and broke her hip
in 2006, they were forced to leave Oregon to come to Claremont where their
daughter and family could provide
needed support. Settling into what she
termed elegant living at Claremont
Manor, Betty made new friends and developed a reputation for gentle strength,
a positive attitude and a sense of humor
that endeared her to staff and residents
alike.
After Ned died in 2009, she devoted
most of her energy to her daughters
family, providing major support for the
educational needs, community engagement, charitable causes and life events of
her daughter, son-in-law and three
granddaughters, all of whom she was
tremendously proud. She delighted in
watching the growth and antics of her
three great-grandchildren, another generation with whom she could play on her
living room floor with carefully-saved
tissue boxes and toilet paper rolls. In
spite of increasing frailty, she was always game for family outings and en-
joyed trips to the beach, to the theater,

out to dinner and to the LA County Fair,
where she joined great-granddaughter
Savannah on the merry-go-roundand
not on the boring bench that stays on the
platform, but on the horse that goes up
and down!
Her son-in-law David described her
thusly. My mother-in-law had an incredible toughness of an unusual kind
insofar as it was mostly inconspicuous
for a variety of reasonspartly because
she ably played second violin to her husbands concertmaster, partly because it
reflected what I think of as a Midwestern
talent for silent perseverance and partly
becauseand not just at the end of her
lifeshe spoke softly so that you
needed to listen carefully to hear her.
My mother was the strongest person
I know, Beverly added. She gave me a
solid base of unconditional love, and set
me free to become who I needed to be.
She was always there for me, even when
we didnt agree about what I was doing.
She was the original Strong Mama and
I want to be like her when I grow up and
grow old.
She is survived by her daughter and
son-in-law, Beverly and David Speak;
granddaughters Julia Hobson, Emily
Speak and Margaret Speak; sons-in-law
Richard Hobson and Anthony Reichert;
and great-grandchildren Savannah, Edward and Zachary Speak. She also
leaves her sister-in-law Kay Philips,
nieces and nephews Susan Reedy,
Melinda Base, William Faggard, Carol
Cumming and Susan Dorn, additional
great- and great-grand nieces and
nephews and numerous loving friends.
Friends and family are invited to
come together for a joyful celebration of
Bettys life on Saturday, January 10
(which would have been her 87th birthday) at 3 p.m. at the Claremont Friends
Meeting House, 727 W. Harrison Ave. In
lieu of flowers, the family suggests that
memorial donations be made to Kids
Come First Community Health Center.

OBITUARIES
Loving mother, avid runner, tireless volunteer

Longtime Redlands resident Anna
Hollenberg died on December20, 2014
at her home in Mount San Antonio Gardens in Claremont after a shortillness.
She was 85.
She was born in Los Angelesin December 1929 to Carl and Ruth Hoglund
and raised in Alhambra.She graduated
from the University of Redlands in 1951,
where she met andmarried John Leland
Hollenberg. After stints in Hawaii,
Fullerton, Berkeley andClaremont, the

was a chemistry professor for28 years.

Holly Story has had audiences on their feet in every corner of the globe and now The Worlds Most Successful
Rock n Roll Musical is back and ready to explode onto
the Candlelight Pavilion stage in a toe-tapping, hand-clapping extravaganza. Buddy is the story of Buddy Holly
who changed the face of popular music over 55 years ago.
The musical tells the last few years of Buddy Hollys life
and how he and his high-school friends, the Crickets,
turned country music upside down and created a unique-
17
style of sound which some called the devils music.

From Buddys frustrations at Decca Records to his success at the Apollo Theatre, Buddy artistically portrays the
music and the man who forever changed the nation. It
recreates his final moments up until his tragic death and
celebrates one of the most exciting musical concerts of all
time. Buddy celebrates the music of Buddy Holly with
some of his greatest hits including Peggy Sue, Thatll
Be the Day, Everyday and Raining in my Heart.

NOTICE OF TRUSTEES SALE TS No. CA14-634562-CL Order No.: 730-1404982-70
YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED
OF TRUST DATED 6/21/2004. UNLESS
YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR
PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE
PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU
SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public
auction sale to the highest bidder for cash,
cashier's check drawn on a state or national
bank, check drawn by state or federal credit
union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association,
or savings bank specified in Section 5102 to the
Financial Code and authorized to do business in
this state, will be held by duly appointed trustee.
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, with interest and late charges
thereon, as provided in the note(s), advances,
under the terms of the Deed of Trust, interest
thereon, fees, charges and expenses of the
Trustee for the total amount (at the time of the
initial publication of the Notice of Sale) reasonably estimated to be set forth below. The amount
may be greater on the day of sale. BENEFICIARY MAY ELECT TO BID LESS THAN
THE TOTAL AMOUNT DUE. Trustor(s):

Agreement recorded 5/15/2007 as Instrument
No. 20071181980 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of LOS ANGELES
County, California; Date of Sale: 1/16/2015 at
11:00 AM Place of Sale: By the fountain located at 400 Civic Center Plaza, Pomona, CA
91766 Amount of unpaid balance and other
charges: $495,427.03 The purported property
address is: 1408 ASHLAND AVE, Claremont,
CA 91711-3307 Assessors Parcel No.: 8303022-015 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 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 for information regarding the
trustees sale or visit this Internet Web site
http://www.qualityloan.com , using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA14-634562-CL . Information about postponements
that are very short in duration or that occur close in
time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be
reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement
information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common
designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address
or other common designation is shown, directions to
the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days
of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale.
If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole and exclusive
remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the
Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no
further recourse. If the sale is set aside for any
reason, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled
only to a return of the deposit paid. The Purchaser shall have no further recourse against the
Mortgagor, the Mortgagee, or the Mortgagees
Attorney. If you have previously been discharged

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 800.280.2832 for
