Website combined with the Grand Prix and the

we will face another round, but when.
Expert consensus is that these kinds of
fires are only likely to increase in scope
and frequency.
Anthony LeRoy Westerling, associate
professor of environmental engineering
at UC Merced, states that wildfires in
the West have gotten bigger, more fre-
quent and longer since the 1980s.
Ray Rasker, executive director of
Headwaters Economics, a nonprofit re-
search group, notes, In just the last
decade, as drought and climate change
have increased fire risks, the acres
burned per wildfire has doubled, fires
burn on average twice as long, and the
wildfire season has extended by two
months, with a year-round fire season in
some parts of the West.
Over the same period, according to Information Meeting
Mr. Rasker, the cost to federal agencies
to fight fires has tripled to more than $3
billion per year; it now consumes more
than half of the Forest Services budget.
That agency estimates that 50 to 95 per-
cent of this cost goes toward defending
homes. In the last 10 years, 60 percent of
new homes in the US have been built on
lands adjacent to fire-prone public lands
and, predictably, the number of homes
scorched by wildfire has more than
tripled. Since 2006, insured losses dou-
bled, to more than $1.4 billion in 2015.
And firefighter deaths continue to rise
year after year.
The question iscan we continue to
afford development on our hillsides un-
der the climatic conditions we now face?

Residents skeptical over new hillside development

R
esidents got their first look at a
new housing development that
would change the face of the
Webb Canyon hillside.
The Clara Oaks project was unveiled to a packed
crowd in the Padua Room at the Alexander Hughes
Center Monday evening, as representatives talked
about the plans and fielded questions from the skepti-
cal crowd.
Clara Oaks is a proposed 47 single-family home
development with an emphasis on making as little of
an impact on the hillsides as possible, according to
Steve Austin, a civil engineer working for Clara Oaks.
Director of Community Development Brian Desat-
nik explained that the development is still in its early
stages. The specific plan and environmental impact
report still have to be created, and the plans will then
have to be reviewed by the citys commissions and
the city council.
In all, it could take up to two years for the plans to
make it to the review process.
This is really the first step in the process, Mr. De-
satnik said. The plans have not been formally sub-
mitted to the city.
Mr. Desatnik gave a quick overview of the history
of hillside regulation and the mechanism that governs COURIERphoto/Peter Weinberger

City loses patience with developer of Village West property

A
n empty, fenced-off plot of land in
the middle of Village West is the
subject of an apparent showdown
between the city and a developer.
The parcel, formerly the home of the since-demol-
ished Richs Products, has been owned by Los Angeles-
based Denley Investment & Management since 2011. It
was initially set to be the home of The Village Lofts, a
mixed-use residential and commercial development
that was once touted as the final piece of the puzzle in
the Village West expansion.
But now, the plans appear to be in danger. After years
of delays, the Community Development Department
has voided the projects approval by the Architectural
Commission. Denley has issued an appeal, and the
planning commission is set hear the case, according to
Director of Community Development Brian Desatnik,
with a tentative date of May 16.
In a January 30 letter sent to Denley President Mehdi
Bolour, Mr. Desatnik presented a timeline of delays for
a project that has seen an extreme lack of continuity
and oversight.

the landscape and an integration of indoor and out-
door spaces.
Each custom home would be roughly 2,500 to
4,000 square feet, according to Tyler Kropf, a New-
port Beach-based realtor representing the developers.
Seven lots would be a fourth of an acre, 11 lots would
be a third of an acre, 11 lots would be one to two
acres and four lots would be greater than two acres.
Clara Oaks has also proposed a roughly two-mile
loop trail that would be installed on the top right part
of the parcel, encompassing roughly 52 acres of the
98-acre plot of land. A public parking lot would be in-
stalled on the bottom left of the property for those
who would want to enjoy the trail, Mr. Austin said.
r. Austin explained that the de-
velopers had met with the
Claremont Wildlands Conser-
vancy (CWC) and they had approved of
the plan for the trails.
I do understand that it will bring more cars, Mr.
Austin said. And my understanding is the conser-
vancy feels like this area will be different that the
other areas because it is smaller.
Lissa Petersen of the CWC noted the development
group is going beyond what is required by the city.
We have talked to the developer and worked with
the developer on this project and we think this is the
corridor.
To mitigate the risk of fire, Mr. Austin said, a
250,000-gallon water tank would be installed at the
north end of the development. He noted that the size
of the tank is roughly the same as the tank used for
the larger Claraboya neighborhood.
Mr. Kropf noted that the purpose of the meeting
was not about hammering out the details, but present-
ing preliminary plans to residents.
This is very early on, he said. Were here to gain
your support, share our ideas and do it in what we
think is the proper way. Obviously this community
cares. We dont get this even in large cities.

 EDUCATION
David Oxtoby reflects on his 14 years at Pomona College
A
t his inauguration 14 years ago,
Pomona College President David
Oxtoby borrowed from W.E.B.
DuBois.
The function of the universityand, I would add, the
liberal arts collegeis not simply to teach bread-winning,
or to furnish teachers for the public schools, or to be a cen-
tre of polite society; it is above all to be the organ of that
fine adjustment between real life and the growing knowl-
edge of life, an adjustment which forms the secret of civ-
ilization.
The sentiment from Mr. DuBois, an author, civil
rights activist and the first African American to earn a doc-
torate, resonated with Mr. Oxtoby.
Its such a broad quote, from an advocacy point of
view, he said. And it was way ahead of its time. It re-
minds me of language Obama uses.
And so began Mr. Oxtobys tenure as Pomona Colleges
ninth president. As the former dean of physical sciences
at the University of Chicago, he joined Pomona College
in 2003 with an established reputation for environmen-
tal chemistry, a subject he notes is at the heart of his in-
terest and research experience.
Ive taught second semester every year, he said. Due
to extra travel, I had to give it
up this year, but only reluc-
tantly.
His passion for the environ-
ment proved to be a boon for the I wouldnt pick
college. He hired the colleges
first sustainability coordinator a time and say,
and raised the schools Green

dard LEED-certification to

inum-level distinction.
favorite.
As a climate change re-
searcher, Mr. Oxtoby said meet-
ing these standards was of crit-
ical importance to him.
Its an opportunity for us to involve the students, as
well, he said. They join in the process and say, How
can we get this even more sustainable?
He took sustainability to new heights at Pomona. From
2007 to 2015, the college built or upgraded eight build-
ings to Gold or Platinum rating, including two new green
dorms. The fact that parking lots dont even qualify for
LEED didnt stop him, and he insisted the south campus
parking structure be built to a Gold standard.
But perhaps the most ambitious projectand further
evidence of Mr. Oxtobys propensity to blend the arts and
scienceswas construction of the $29 million Gold-cer-
tified Studio Art Hall.
The design, with its signature openings to the wider
campus, invites other disciplines into the space to spark
new and innovative ways of thinking and creating art, he
said after the buildings 2014 opening.
From day onehis inauguration speech was titled The
Place of Prometheus, in reference to Orozcos mural at
Frary Dining Hallhis objective was to offer competi-
tive programs in all disciplines, including the arts.
Some say when you study and write, its academic, but
that art is somewhat extra-curricular. Its not, he said. Art
is a core part of the liberal arts experience.
Under Mr. Oxtobys leadership, the college added James
Turrells Skyspace, saw the schools glee club enjoy sev-
eral international tours and added its first tenure-track po-
sitions in the dance department.
Most notably, however, was the launch of the new
Pomona College Museum of Art. After what he describes
as a challenging process, Mr. Oxtoby remains optimistic
about the museums arrival, and believes it will be a huge
asset to both the college and the community.
To me, the town/gown connection is for our students,
staff, faculty and the community, he said. Whenever we
are recruiting students or hiring a faculty member, study-
ing or working here is a major selling point. The vitality
Pomona College President David Oxtoby will retire at the end of the semester after leading the college for
14 years. Among his most notable achievements are the schools leadership role in supporting DACA stu-
dents, progress in sustainability and the colleges advancement in the arts.
of this community is critical to us.
Nurturing the town/gown connection started simply and,
some might say, rather un-academically. Mr. Oxtoby re-
calls one of his first invitations after arriving in Claremont
was a trip to a local bowling alley with the mayor.
This gesture set the stage for the Oxtoby family, which
includes his wife, Claire, and their three children. Ms. Ox-
toby dove in to civic life, joining the Friends of the Clare-
mont Library board and maintaining active engagement
with groups like CLASP.
Ms. Oxtoby, as her husband related, recently commented
on the colleges open event schedulefrom talks to free
orchestra performances to public art showsappreciat-
ing that they are not limited to abstruse lectures offered
solely to faculty but can be enjoyed by any community
member.
This community engagement played a part in Pomona
College re-acquiring Bridges Auditorium from the Clare-
mont University Consortium in 2007 for about $1, he
said. Pomona has so far invested about $1 million toward
renovating the theater, an effort he hopes will continue af-
ter he leaves.
Mr. Oxtoby has shared the theater with the communi-
ty, by inviting Claremont public school kids to perform-
ances and hosting the annual end-of-the-year CHS The-
ater Department musical.
Although located in the center of the Pomona campus,
Big Bridges was built in the 1920s as a consortia build-
ing for use by all of the Colleges.
[The Colleges] are unique being a consortium, he said.
Thats good and bad. We each have our own agendas and
we need to have our own [community] relationships. Col-
leges have faculty and students, which consortia dont have.
Town/gown needs to be through the individual colleges,
not necessarily through a faceless consortium.
Despite his many accomplishments, Mr. Oxtobys 14
years at the helm of Pomona College werent without con-
troversy. There was the 2008 dust-up over the Alma Mater
song and a short-lived squabble over Mr. Oxtoby signing
the Amethyst Initiative, which aimed to lower the drink-
ing age from 21 to 18.
Hes certainly dealt with more serious incidents, like the
suicide of English and creative writing professor David
Foster Wallace and the murder-suicide involving Howard
Jackson, a longtime adjunct professor in classical Greek
and religious studies. For Mr. Oxtoby, these moments of
tragedy arent simply part of the job.
You never know what can happen, he said. I look
Claremont COURIER/Friday, May 5, 2017 5
COURIERphoto/Steven Felschundneff
at reports after every weekend and ask, Were there trans-
ports? Were there any incidents? Its constant background
anxiety.
Most recently, the Claremont Colleges have experienced
a surge in student protests, largely relating to Deferred Ac-
tion of Childhood Arrivals (DACA). As a leader on this
front, and long before DACA, Mr. Oxtoby amended guide-
lines at Pomona College for all high school senior appli-
cantsinstead of basing students status on where they
were born, the college opted to use their graduating high
school to determine residency.
Why were we treating these students differently? At
that point, we started looking at high school graduates the
same, regardless of citizenship. There was a financial com-
mitment with thatwe had to make a bigger investment
but we made that investment.
His financial investment extended beyond DACA
students when, in 2008, Pomona College removed student
loans from its financial aid packages, replacing the funds
with scholarships.
But his support for immigrant students persisted. In No-
vember 2016, Mr. Oxtoby led the Claremont Colleges by
signing a Statement in Support of the DACA Program
and Our Undocumented Immigrant Students.
With the current protests, Mr. Oxtoby understands that
it goes beyond just rejecting President Donald Trumps
policies. For most students, its personal.
The protests today are aimed at someone who the stu-
dents think can change things, he explained. Students
today care less about causes and more about people. It af-
fects someone they know and they want to do something
to support that person.
Protests and hurdles surrounding the museum aside, Mr.
Oxtoby resists the notion of identifying a high or low point
in his career.
Ill miss the rhythm of the year, he said. First the new
students arrive and then at the end of the year, its theses
and protests. I wouldnt pick a time and say, That was my
favorite. My last year was different from what I had pre-
dicted last summer, but I wouldnt change it.
This summer, Mr. Oxtoby will return to his alma mater,
Harvard University, where he has accepted a one-year vis-
iting scholar position in the graduate school of education.
I will be writing, doing faculty work and teaching some
classes, he said. But Ill be back to Claremont in Oc-
tober for the inauguration. And, of course, to see friends.

Summer...Im home!
by Jan Wheatcroft
I
will not be taking a big trip this sum-
mer. I just know that my body cant
take all that walking for two months
throughout cities and up and downstairs. I
guess one just has to listen to the mes-
sages the body sends. I think more than 10
hours sitting in an airplane might also be
difficult to deal with.
It makes me really sad to know I wont be seeing
my good friends in London and Sweden and explor-
ing at least one new place with my good friend,
Frances. I just have to get stronger. I plan to go to
Portland, Oregon with a friend, for a quick and easy
four-day trip. The flight is short and we have reserved
a very comfortable hotel. This is a first outing for me,
so I will just go and improvise from there. But there is
a whole summer ahead of me and many possibilities
and choices of things to do.
I can drive and I can walk, albeit slower than be-
fore, so I can get around. It is nice to think of all the
things I can enjoy right here in my own area.
I love to browse bookstores, and there is a good,
big one in Pasadena as well as our local store. I find a
good bookstore so satisfying. Time seems to disap-
pear as I explore the magazines, mysteries, cook-
books and art books. But this is not anything new or
different to what I do during the year.
Because it is summer there is so much fresh food
available, and our local farmers markets are great
places to visit and shop. Of course Claremont has one
of the best markets around. Many farmers sell certi-
fied organic produce from nearby farms. Fresh local
honey, good olive oil, fish, breads, meat, plants and
flowers can be found and good local music can be
heard as well. Flea markets are full of hidden treas-
ures and theyre also a great deal of fun.
There is at least one good flea market each week-
end in the Los Angeles area. The only drawback for
me is the summer heat, as most ofthe markets are
open air at schools or other large, flat areas where
vendors can park, set up and sell. When its too hot
one can always explore large antique emporiums
filled with various vendors booths.
Museums are also good places to visit and exhibits
change often. Locally, we have quite a few college
museums, and the AMOCA ceramic museum in
Pomona is a great place to view interesting ceramic
exhibitions. Los Angeles also has quite a few weird
small museums.
On Hollywood Blvd there is the Museum of Death
and The Museum of Broken Relationships. In
Pasadena one can find The Bunny Museum and on
Venice Blvd. in Culver City one can find The Mu-
seum of Jurassic Technology. Los Angeles has a rich
and varied art life. Even on the streets one can find
murals and graffiti with an exploding creative expres-
sion for everyone to enjoy. I have been told it is possi-
ble to have a self-guided tour of the subway system
and view the artwork at the various stations. I plan to
do this over the summer, and to see some of the citys
street murals. Another interesting place to visit is a
cemetery.
As a kid I remember my grandparents always took
visitors from New York to Forest Lawn Cemetery in
LA. Everyone loved visiting the different chapels and
mausoleums. A few years back some friends took me
to a cemetery in Hollywood where my great uncle is
buried in a big, white shrine. As we walked around,
taking it all in, I happened to look down and realized I
was standing on my grandmothers grave. A further
search revealed the entire side of my fathers family
Claremont COURIER/Friday, May 5, 2017 6
was under my feet (having been moved from wher-
ever they had originally been buried).
If I want to travel locally I can go to foreign
restaurants, which offer meals from a wide variety of
places; some of which I have already been and still
some beckon me to come and visit. More and more
chefs are willing to be creative in these places, using
old techniques and new, fresh foods. The farmers
markets help this experimentation along as they in-
crease their offerings. Also, more chefs are now will-
ing to forage for ingredients once rejected as not
worth using. I remember learning from Greek friends
how and where to gather dandelion and mustard
greens from the hills around this area to make won-
derful vegetable side dishes and salads. Its fun to try
a few different restaurants from the same country,
such as Thai or Vietnamese, and compare what is pre-
ferred regionally and why.
Summer is also a great time to expand your artistic
knowledge and abilities. All sorts of classes are of-
fered both privately and through various schools. One
need not worry about getting grades: its all about
learning new tricks, finding out what you like to do,
what you may be good at, and just having fun experi-
menting. Using the computer or by word of mouth
will get you much of the information you will need to
go exploring.
Although it is hot, traveling to local beaches might
not be worth a second thought due to heavy traffic
and overcrowding. Perhaps it might be worth investi-
gating whether the Colleges have summertime passes
for people to use at their pools. We used to do this
when our kids were small. If one is creative one can
design a pleasant summertime experience close to
home.
For me it isnt as exciting as destinations where the
world just opens up its doors and welcomes you to an
older place that you may not have visited before. In
the meantime I will work at getting stronger and
hopefully the world will welcome me back next year.

DENLEY INVESTMENT/from page 3
four-story building on July 24, 2012. On
December 12 of that year, the architec-
tural commission approved the develop-
ment plan with the caveat that approvals
would expire after two years, unless
Denley applied for a 90-day extension.
Denley applied for the extension in
November 2014, and the commission
approved it on December 10, two days
before the two-year deadline.
The letter noted that Denley filed an
application to demolish the Richs build-
ing in March 2015, within the 90-day ex-
tension, which the city granted. The
building was torn down and, since Sep-
tember 2015, a green fence has covered
the empty lot.
In September 2016, the city met with
Denley Vice President David Bolour to
propose placing a temporary parking lot
on the site, which would require an ad-
ditional amendment to the VESP. Den-
ley rejected that deal, noting it wasnt
financially feasible.
Between November 2016 and the end
of January 2017, the city said it made
multiple attempts to contact both
Mehdi Bolour, Denley Vice President
and project manager David Bolour and
Denley General Counsel Areg Sarkiss-
ian, but nothing reportedly moved for-
ward. David Bolour stepped down as
project manager on January 2, according
to Mr. Desatnik.
T
he city finally issued
an ultimatum to Mr.
Sarkissian on January
24if Denley didnt respond
to the city regarding the status
of the Village Lofts, the city
would be closing the file on
the project, the letter states.
There was no response, and Mr. De-
satnik voided the approvals.
Denley formally appealed the decision
COURIERphoto/Peter Weinberger
on February 10. In the letter attached to the
appeal, Mr. Sarkissian denied they violated
any provision under code, since we have
always been actively working with the city
and the project site to develop.
Mr. Sarkissian claimed Denley had
been waiting on approval of several
items from the city, including shades for
restaurant space, and accused Claremont
of not providing timely responses.
Mr. Desatnik noted that Denley had
submitted three designs for shades over
four years, which were rejected by the
city.
Claremont COURIER/Friday, May 5, 2017 7
It was in their ballpark, he said. We
gave them examples of things we ap-
proved. But four years is not a reason-
able time on a small design element.
In the appeal letter, Mr. Sarkissian said
Denley was ready, willing and able to
build the project and was waiting on fur-
ther correspondence from the city. He
warned of dire consequences if the city
voided the approval.
This project is not only going to be
beneficial to the owner, but also a huge
benefit to the city of Claremont, Mr.
Sarkissian wrote. And by voiding the
project, the effect is going to be felt by
all parties including the city of Clare-
mont, because the prime downtown lo-
cation will remain undeveloped for many
many years, making the city loses [sic]
millions of dollars in revenue, jobs, costs
and making the downtown area incom-
plete.
As both sides trade barbs, the fate of
the Village Lofts hangs in the balance.
Denley still owns the property, but would
have to start from scratch if the planning
commission upholds the citys void of
project approval on May 16.
If you decide that you would like to
pursue development of this site in the fu-
ture, any development will be subject to
a new development review process, Mr.
Desatnik wrote in the letter.

College journalists navigate political climate, freedom of speech
A
fierce battle is being waged at the
Claremont Colleges over the First
Amendment, and a student publi-
cation is caught in the crossfire.
In the past couple years, students attending the citys
five undergraduate colleges have become increasingly
politically active, with their demonstrations, statements
and demands typically centering on issues of race.
While many students have expressed chagrin at what
they say is a toxic atmosphere at the 5Csmore con-
ducive to whiteness than diversitytheir doings have
been reported faithfully in the two most well known
student-run publications covering the Colleges.
Both The Student Life and The Claremont Independ-
ent are staffed by students dedicated to journalism and
to amplifying the messages coming from campus ac-
tivists.
The Student Life prides itself on having no ideologi-
cal bent. Its reportage is largely neutral, though in edi-
torials and opinions there tends to be a sympathetic tone
toward student activists.
The Claremont Independent also demonstrates some
solid reportage of student activism, but the publication
makes no bones about having a viewpoint. When it
comes to its staffers politics, The Claremont Indepen-
dents slogan says it all: Always right.

Kathleen Marie Mirante OBITUARIES

Dedicated cardiologist, advocate for social justice
Nearly two years after being diag-
nosed with metastatic cancer, Dr. Kath-
leen M. Mirante died peacefully as she
lived, surrounded by friends, on April
10, 2017. She was 77.
Dr. Mirante was born in Seattle,
Washington on April 8, 1940 to Do-
minic and Frances Drew Mirante, and
attended schools in the Seattle area. By
age 10, Kathleen knew she wanted to
be a physician and with her mothers
help went to the library to determine
what would be required to attain that
goal. After graduating from Bishop
Blanchet High School in Seattle, she re-
ceived a scholarship from the College
of Notre Dame de Namur in Belmont,
California.
After graduation, while at the con-
vent of the Medical Mission Sisters in
Philadelphia, Dr. Mirante knew her
calling was the practice of medicine.
She attended Womens Medical Col-
lege of Pennsylvania, the first medical
school for women in the United States
and now part of Drexel University Col-
lege of Medicine.
After graduation in 1971, she did her
residency at Montefiori Medical Center
in New York and further study in cardi-
ology in San Diego and in San Fran-
cisco. In 1976, Dr. Mirante joined the
Southern California Permanente Med-
ical Group in Fontana as a board-certi-
fied cardiologist.
For 30 years, Dr. Mirante was a car-
ing, dedicated physician and a tireless
advocate for her patients. In 1988 her
efforts in developing the first cardiac
rehabilitation program in Kaisers
Southern California region were recog-
nized when she was awarded the Ray-
mond Kay, MD, Personal Excellence
Award and again in 1998 when the Cal-
ifornia Medical Review recognized the
Fontana Medical Center with an award
for its Cooperative Cardiovascular
Project, chaired by Dr. Mirante.
Dr. Mirantes passions extended be-
yond the practice of medicine. She was
a political activist, a lover of classical
music and dedicated supporter of the
arts.
After her retirement, Dr. Mirante
dedicated her considerable energy to
many progressive causes and would
willingly lend her time and resources to
many organizations in support of the
environment, peace and social justice
for women and all people. After living
in the Claremont area for many years,
she divided her time between her
homes near the shore in Oxnard, Cali-
fornia and on Whidbey Island in Wash-
ington. Kathleens generous spirit and
passion for righting the wrongs of the
world will be missed by all, her loved
ones said.
In addition to her parents, she was
preceded in death by her sister Sheila
Mirante and her brother Timothy Tim
Mirante. She is survived by her sister
Sharon Mirante; her nephew Drew Mi-
rante and his wife Zulma of Seattle;
countless friends, colleagues and pa-
tients all over the world, and her two
beloved Maltese dogs, Nicky and
Lucky.
Donations may be made in Dr. Kath-
leen Mirantes honor to her favorite
charities: Community Environmental
Legal Defense Fund (CELDF) in Mer-
cersburg, Pennsylvania; Medical Mis-
sion Sisters in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania; Whidbey Camano Land
Trust in Greenbank, Washington; the
Dolores Huerta Foundation in Bakers-
field, California; Red Cloud Indian
School in Pine Ridge, South Dakota;
Notre Dame de Namur University in
Belmont, California; and Blanchet
High School in Seattle, Washington.

FREE SPEECH/from the previous page
entitlement to ask and demand.
Once you put something on social media, however,
or in a mass email, Ms. Widmer says your opinions,
and your identity, are a matter of public record.
If they put things on Facebook... theyve just started
a forum for what theyre asking for, she said.
Ms. Widmer says internet trolling is not the only
issue spurred by the digital age. She believes the con-
trol given to news consumers by the webthe ability
to seek out news sources and forums that support our
preconceived notionshas made many of us unaccus-
tomed to hearing dissenting ideas in a calm manner.
She also says that many young people seem to need
a refresher civics course to understand the First Amend-
ment better.
We want to let the media know that they have to be
held accountable through their journalism and to foster
an environment where diverse ideas can be shared and
heard and valuedwhere we can disagree in a civil
way that promotes conversation, Ms. Widmer said.
Julia Thomas was editor of The Student Life last year
and remains on the staff. She said that student journal-
ists are wrestling with this new landscape. They have
long discussions deciding when to use the names of stu-
dents and do so on a case-by-case basis.
Ms. Thomas said she respects the right of Claremont
Independent staffers to use the powers of free speech
and free press, but has some issues with their coverage.
The way The Claremont Independent reports on
things, the way they kind of warp an angle of the stu-
dent perspective, is unfair, she said, emphasizing that
many of the publications articles fail to deliver infor-
mation within a broader context. The Claremont In-
dependent preys upon any kind of student protest or
students organizing, or directly responds to pieces pub-
lished in The Student Life. They really wait for those
things to happen.
Ms. Thomas, a Scripps College senior, has received
a $30,000 fellowship to study citizen journalism. Be-
ginning in August, shell spend a year traveling through
India, South Africa, Spain and Ecuador, shadowing
journalists to see how they report on citizen perspec-
tives.
As far as the perspective many have on Claremont
Colleges students, Ms. Thomas said she feels that a
generational gap is definitely at play.
Ive been talking with my parents about these is-
sues, she said, adding that many older people feel that
student demands are unreasonable or over the top.
While she examines news coverage across the world,
Mr. Reade will spend another year scrutinizing life at
the Claremont Colleges. He feels that The Claremont
Independent is doing important work, and making a
true impact on the atmosphere at the Colleges.
As hard as it might be to believe, it really is true that
the movement for common sense is winning out on
campus. The more radical the leaders of these anti-free
speech movements become, the more they alienate the
students who even only partially recognize the value of
free speech on campus.

Nancy Gamer
Writer, administrator, educator
Nancy Gamer, a resident of Claremont
and Pomona for 43 years, died peaceful-
ly in her sleep the morning of April 26,
2017. She was 80 years old.
A native of Olympia, Washington, she
was born February 2, 1937 to Kathryn and
Norman Schaefer. During her teens she was
an avid swimmer, working as a lifeguard
on Puget Sound.
It was at the Helen Busch School that she
discovered her gifts for literature and
writing, serving as senior class president and
gaining admission to Mills College in 1955.
There she earned her Bachelor of Arts in
literature and on graduation won a fel-
lowship to do further graduate study. She
received her Master of Arts in May of 1960,
married naval officer Jerrold Gamer that
June and moved to Great Lakes, Illinois,
where she taught writing and where her son
Jeffrey was born in 1961. As is common
with military families, the next years
brought with them several relocations:
Monterey (where her son Michael was born
in 1964), Norfolk, Jacksonville, Wash-
ington, DC, and finally Claremont in
1972.
The move to Claremont coincided with
a slump in the academic job market, and
Ron Lopez
Art director, fun-loving father and friend
Ron Lopez died on April 18, 2017 after
a brief illness. He was 55.
He was born on June 12, 1961 at San
Antonio Hospital in Upland to Lydia Lei-
dig and Alfonso Lopez, Jr. Ron grew up
in Rancho Cucamonga and graduated
from Damien High School. He then grad-
uated from ArtCenter College of Design
in Pasadena, where he made lifelong
friends who gravitated to his unquench-
able love of life and readiness to make
even the mundane a cause for celebration.
Mr. Lopez met his wife, Leslee
Neuhauser, in Los Angeles when they
were in high school. They welcomed
their only child, Hannah, into the world
so Mrs. Gamer did not re-enter the work-
place until 1977, when a temporary posi-
tion with the Harvey Mudd College Alum-
ni Office became permanent. She began as
alumni secretary and was promoted first
into fundraising and then to director of
alumni relations. At HMC she deter-
minedly advocated for those who worked
for her; her kitchen for many years was a
kind of social and professional hub. Dur-
ing her 11-year tenure, the annual fund in-
creased 1,000 percent. On her retirement,
her position was divided into three, a tes-
timony to her drive and abilities, and she
was made an honorary alumna. Even 25
years later, she is still remembered for the
pivotal role she played as the college
came into its own.
On leaving HMC she went back to her
passion and vocation, teaching writing at
the Claremont McKenna College Writing
Center. Students, especially those writing
theses, regularly sought out that lady...the
one who knew all the rules for more than
15 years. She retired in 2007, eventually
moving to Portland in 2015 to be near her
son Jeff.
Nancy enjoyed culture in all its forms,
from Jane Austen to All My Children,
19 years ago and would remain together
for 36 years until his passing. He was
proud of his daughter and passed his
sense of humor and love of cinema on to
her.
Mr. Lopez moved to Las Vegas in 1992
to work as an advertising art director for
the grand opening of the MGM Grand.
From there he went on to a decorated ca-
reer as a creative director at R&R Part-
ners, where he worked on numerous
award-winning ad campaigns, mentored
junior partners and inspired countless ad
people along the way. His years there
were among his fondest.

wherein Americans drink tequila and eat
Mexican food or, in my house: Friday.
The Mexican holiday commemorates its
armys unlikely victory over French
forces at the Battle of Puebla in 1862. A
solemn event in Mexico, with military
parades and the like, its a less reveren-
tial affair here in America. Weve been
known to don giant sombreros,
overindulge in such questionably au-
thentic fare as chalupas or extreme faji-
tas, and generally use the holiday as an
excuse to party. Its a victimless crime,
unless we count our livers or our dig-
nity. Its all in fun, and if one wishes to
get their Cinco on in Claremont there
are several options. Casa Moreno, at
101 N. Indian Hill Blvd., Suite CZ-103,
will feature live music from 7 to 10 p.m,
and happy hour drink and appetizer spe-
cials from 3 to 6 p.m. A strolling mari-
achi band will be on hand at El
Ranchero, 984 W. Foothill Blvd., from
5:45 to 10 p.m. Espiaus, at 109 Yale

youve been drinking. Uber, Lyft or take
a cab. Youll thank me later.

FREE SHOW FROM INFLUEN-
TIAL PUNK GROUP The Glass
House-adjacent Acerogami Bar, at 228
W. Second St., Pomona, hosts a free
show from the highly-influential, early-
LA punk rock band The Urinals at 10
p.m. tonight. Also on the bill are Traps
PS and Fernando and the Teenage
Narcs. The art landscape is littered with
hyper-influential artists who never got
their props during their primeVin-
cent Van Gogh, Robert Johnson, Paul
Cezanne, to name but a few. LAs The
Urinals, while certainly not quite on that
plane, are nonetheless an underappreci-
ated commodity in the annals of LA
punk. Formed in 1978, the band re-
leased a handful of EPs on Happy Squid
Records, and were early inspirations to
several other punk pioneers, notably the
great Minutemen, who covered the
bands Ack Ack Ack Ack (retitled

Emergency call sends police on an udderly strange chase

Thus began a 30-minute chase down Alamosa, with

C
laremont police officers are used
to tracking down stolen cars or
runaway perps, but on Sunday
morning they dealt with a different kind
of pursuita runaway cow.
The saga began when Officer Jamison Sims got a
call around 6:50 a.m. regarding a cow that was possi-
bly in distress on the 700 block of Alamosa Drive, ac-
cording to Sgt. Eric Huizar of the Claremont Police
Department.
When Officer Sims arrived, the cow looked at him
and walked down from the gate, stepping on the pres-
sure plates to the home and causing the gate to swing
wide open. The cow exited the gate, took one last look
at the officer, and took off down Alamosa Drive.
The cows a lot smarter than we think, Sgt.
Huizar said.

Officer Sims trying to curb the cows quest for free-
dom. Calls to the home from which the cow originated
went unanswered, as did calls to the local humane so-
ciety, Sgt. Huizar said.
Eventually, a nearby resident made a lasso out of a
rope and handed it to the officer, who then caught the
beleaguered bovine and tied her to a lemon tree.
Another resident also found the reason why the cow
was in such distressshe needed to be milked.
So she runs out and she milks the cow, Sgt.
Huizar said. Shes definitely a good Samaritan, be-
cause she can tell whats causing the pain.
The owner of the cow, who was home at the time
but did not answer repeated calls by police, noted that
the cow was recently separated from her calf and her
offspring was being weaned.
The cow was safely returned to the owner.

Winning streak sends CHS volleyball straight to CIF
When the COURIER reported on
Claremont High School boys volleyball
just over two weeks ago, the Pack was 2-
2 in the Hacienda League and was in
third place. The challenge was to hold on
to that ranking in order to qualify for
post-season play.
Instead, Claremont won all of their re-
maining conference

games, including two
LIFE
matches that went to
five sets, and have now secured the
league title.
They just refused to lose, coach
Bernie Wendling said during practice on
Tuesday at CHS. Both the Los Altos
and Diamond Ranch games went to five
sets. They just worked so hard.
In addition to the close games, Clare-
mont also won the Damien and West
Covina matches, 3-0.
Coach Wendling has enjoyed remark-
able success at Claremont during his 20-
year tenure. The come-from-behind
victory was a particularly fitting end,
since Claremont has been rebuilding in
recent years.
The Pack will actually share the title
with Damien and Los Altos, with all
three ending the season with a 6-2
record. In spite of the tie, Coach
Wendling said he was hopeful the Pack
would have the home court advantage
when the CIF draws are announced on
Friday. However, he also said that play-

Claremont finished all of the dual
meets and had league prelims and finals
this week. The team had some excellent
results in the recent Husky Invitational in-

Toby Jackson, who swam a 54:59 in his
100 butterfly, which will qualify him for
consolation consideration for CIF.
Katrina Strash swam a 24:72 in her 50
freestyle, which is her fastest time this sea-
son. Her time also qualifies for consola-

TRACK AND FIELD
Claremont made a strong showing during the Palo-
mares League Finals on Wednesday in Claremont, with
the girls taking second place overall, just five points be-
hind first-place Glendora. The boys placed third behind
Glendora, in second, and Ayala in first.
Annie Boos won the girls 1600-meter race with a time
Claremont freshman Ben Stapp returns a shot from John Park in the first round of the Palomares League
Championships on Tuesday at the Claremont Club. Stapp defeated Park, 6-0 6-1, but lost to Diamond Bars

weather for the finals has been very hot resulting in
some players experiencing cramping as the matches
wore on.
The Packs number-one ranked Leyton Bohren was
the only Claremont singles player to make the cut and
faced Glendoras Dillon Barnard in the semifinal
match Thursday morning. The winner will go up
against either Bonitas Bennett Williams or Diamond
Bars Neil Tengbumroong for the singles title.
All three of Claremonts doubles teams made the
cut for the semifinals, claiming all but one of the
draws. This means that Christian Settles and Jason
Weisman will face teammates Hunter Bojalad and
of 5:02, followed by Ayalas Mikaela Ramirez and
Claremonts Jax Heckers.
Senior Max McGuire took first place in pole vault-
ing with a 15-foot leap.
Ryan Renken and Owen Bishop were neck and neck
in the boys 1600-meter race, with Renken edging out
his teammate by less than half a second at 4:19:36.
Renken also won the 3200-meter event, with Ayalas
Steven Khan in second and Bishop in third.
Alyssa Cantrell won the 100-meter hurdles at 16:62
with teammate Daniela Lemus in second.
Lyling Irwin won the girls pole vault event, clear-
ing 10 feet.
Claremonts Noah Garcia won the shot put with a
throw of 46 feet, 4 inches and the discus at 134 feet,
8 inches. Claremont boys placed second in the 4x400
meter race. Steven Felschundneff

Ahkeel Mohideen in the semifinal match. Both Set-
tles and Weisman usually play singles but joined the
ranks of doubles players to increase their odds of
making it to the CIF tournament.
Coach Kathy Settles explained the decision to
move Settles and Jason Weisman out of the singles
bracket was made because only the top two finishers
will advance to CIF, which will almost certainly be
Tengbumroong and Bohren.
Its actually pretty common and kind of a fun way
to finish off the season, she said during a break in the
action on Tuesday. My number two and three [play-
ers] are not going to get into CIF, because Neil and
Leyton are too good.
Claremonts other set of doubles, Harrison Bojalad
and Andrew Weisman, played Tommy Folsom and
Justin Lay in the semifinals.
Claremont has two sets of twins on the team, the
Bojalads and the Weismans.
Claremont freshman Ben Stapp defeated John Park
in the first round, 6-0 6-1, but then lost to Tengbum-
roong in the second round, 6-1 6-3.
It was a little bad luck that Stapp had to face Teng-
bumroong in the first round. Hes an experienced sen-
ior and the leagues best player in the first round.
However, Coach Settles pointed out, You have to
beat everyone to win the tournament, so you may as
well start early [playing the best.]
With Tengbumroong graduating this year and both
Stapp and Bohren returning, Claremont singles
should be red-hot in 2018, furthering a tradition of
strong tennis teams. Steven Felschundneff

TICE 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 enti-
tle you to free and clear ownership of the property.
You should also be aware that the lien being auc-
tioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the high-
est 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 investi-
gate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by contacting
the county recorders office or a title insurance com-
pany, either of which may charge you a fee for this
information. If you consult either of these resources,
you should be aware that the same lender may hold
more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this

property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER:
The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be
postponed one or more times by the mortgagee,
beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section
2924g of the California Civil Code. The law re-
quires that information about trustee sale postpone-

a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you
wish to learn whether your sale date has been post-

resentative to take many actions without obtaining
court approval. Before taking certain very important
actions, however, the personal representative will be
required to give notice to interested persons unless

tor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the
court and mail a copy to the personal representative
appointed by the court within the later of either (1)
four months from the date of first issuance of letters

days from the date of mailing or personal delivery
to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California
Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may af-
fect your rights as a creditor. You may want to con-
sult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If
you are a person interested in the estate, you may file
with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE-
154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of es-
tate assets or of any petition or account as provided
in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special

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 enti-
tle you to free and clear ownership of the property.
You should also be aware that the lien being auc-
tioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the high-
est 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 investi-
gate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding
liens that may exist on this property by contacting
the county recorders office or a title insurance com-
pany, either of which may charge you a fee for this
information. If you consult either of these resources,
you should be aware that the same lender may hold
more than one mortgage or deed of trust on this
property. Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves
the right to bid less than the total debt owed, it is
possible that at the time of the sale the opening bid
may be less than the total debt. NOTICE TO
PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on
this notice of sale may be postponed one or more
times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a
court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California
Civil Code. The law requires that information about
trustee sale postponements be made available to you
and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present
at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale
date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the
rescheduled time and date for the sale of this prop-
erty, you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit this In-
ternet Web site http://www.altisource.com/

ments that are very short in duration or that occur
close in time to the scheduled sale may not imme-
diately be reflected in the telephone information.

suance of the Trustees Deed Upon Sale until

excludes all funds held on account by the property
receiver, if applicable. If the Trustee is unable to
convey title for any reason, the successful bidders
sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of

der shall have no further recourse. Notice to Po-
tential Bidders If you are considering bidding on

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 owner-
ship 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 in-
vestigate the existence, priority, and size of out-
standing liens that may exist on this property by
contacting the county recorders office or a title in-
surance company, either of which may charge you
a fee for this information. If you consult either of
these resources, you should be aware that the same
lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed
of trust on this property. NOTICE TO PROP-
ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this no-
tice of sale may be postponed one or more times
by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court,
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 applica-
ble, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of
this property, you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit
this Internet Web site http://www.altisource.com/

vices.aspx using the file number assigned to this
case 2016-03972-CA. Information about post-
ponements that are very short in duration or that
occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not
immediately be reflected in the telephone informa-
tion or on the Internet Web site. The best way to
verify postponement information is to attend the
scheduled sale. Western Progressive, LLC, as

sonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at
the time of the initial publication of the Notice of

vey title for any reason, the successful bidder's sole
and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are
considering bidding on this property lien, you
should understand that there are risks involved in bid-
ding 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 en-
title you to free and clear ownership of the proper-
ty. You should also be aware that the lien being auc-
tioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the high-
est bidder at the auction, you are or may be re-
sponsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien
being auctioned off, before you can receive clear ti-
tle to the property. You are encouraged to investi-
gate 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 com-
pany, either of which may charge you a fee for this
information. If you consult either of these re-
sources, you should be aware that the same lender
may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust
on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWN-
ER: 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 cour-
tesy 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 (844) 477-7869
or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOST-
ING.COM, using the file number assigned to this
case 015615-CA. Information about postpone-
ments that are very short in duration or that occur
close in time to the scheduled sale may not imme-
diately be reflected in the telephone information or
on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify post-
ponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

auction does not automatically entitle you to free and

you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens

NOTICE OF PETITION
TO ADMINISTER
ESTATE OF
KENT ANTHONY ROBERTS
CASE NO. 17STPB01718
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent
creditors, and persons who may otherwise be in-
terested in the will or estate, or both, of KENT AN-
THONY ROBERTS
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by
PETER S. GARRA in the Superior Court of Cali-
fornia, County of Los Angeles.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that
PETER S. GARRA be appointed as personal rep-
resentative to administer the estate of the decedent.
The PETITION requests authority to administer
the estate under the Independent Administration of
Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal
representative to take many actions without ob-
taining court approval. Before taking certain very
important actions, however, the personal represen-
tative will be required to give notice to interested
persons unless they have waived notice or con-
sented to the proposed action.) The independent
administration authority will be granted unless an
interested person files an objection to the petition
and shows good cause why the court should not
grant the authority.
A HEARING ON THE PETITION WILL BE
HELD IN THIS COURT AS FOLLOWS:
Date: May 30, 2017 Time: 8:30 A.M. in Dept. 67
Room: located at:
Superior Court Of California,
County Of Los Angeles,
111 North Hill Street,
Los Angeles, CA 90012,
Stanley Mosk Courthouse
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition,
you should appear at the hearing and state your ob-
jections or file written objections with the court be-
fore the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a CONTINGENT
CREDITOR OF THE DECEDENT, you must file
your claim with the court and mail a copy to the
personal representative appointed by the court
within the later of either (1) four months from the
date of first issuance of letters to a general personal
representative, as defined in section 58 (b) of the
California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the
date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a no-
tice under section 9052 of the California Probate
Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You may
want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable
in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE THE FILE KEPT BY
THE COURT. If you are a person interested in the
estate, you may file with the court a Request for
Special Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an
inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any
petition or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is
available from the court clerk.

5102 OF THE FINANCIAL CODE AND AU-
THORIZED TO DO BUSINESS IN THIS STATE:
All right, title, and interest conveyed to and now
held by the trustee in the hereinafter described
property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust de-
scribed as: More fully described in said Deed of
Trust. Street Address or other common designation
of real property: 8120 Fairchild Ave, Los Ange-
les, CA 91306-2013 A.P.N.: 2108-012-018 The
undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any
incorrectness of the street address or other com-
mon designation, if any, shown above. The sale
will be made, but without covenant or warranty,
expressed or implied, regarding title, possession,
or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal
sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust
with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s),
advances, under the terms of said Deed of Trust,
fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of
the trusts created by said Deed of Trust. The total
amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation se-
cured by the property to be sold and reasonable es-
timated costs, expenses and advances at the time
of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is:
$ 454,823.95. Note: Because the Beneficiary re-
serves the right to bid less than the total debt owed,
it is possible that at the time of the sale the open-
ing bid may be less than the total debt. If the
Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason,
the successful bidders sole and exclusive rem-
edy shall be the return of monies paid to the
Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no
further recourse. The beneficiary of the Deed of
Trust has executed and delivered to the under-
signed a written request to commence foreclosure,
and the undersigned caused a Notice of Default and
Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where
the real property is located. NOTICE OF
TRUSTEE'S SALE 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 owner-
ship 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 out-
standing liens that may exist on this property by
contacting the county recorders office or a title in-
surance company, either of which may charge you
a fee for this information. If you consult either of
these resources, you should be aware that the same
lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed
of trust on this property. NOTICE TO PROP-
ERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this no-
tice 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 applica-
ble, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of
this property, you may call (866)-960-8299 or visit
this Internet Web site http://www.altisource.
com/MortgageServices/DefaultManagement/Trust
eeServices.aspx using the file number assigned to
this case 2016-04026-CA. Information about post-
ponements that are very short in duration or that
occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not
immediately be reflected in the telephone infor-
mation or on the Internet Web site. The best way to
verify postponement information is to attend the
scheduled sale. Western Progressive, LLC, as
