Earth Day with the leagueDear Editor:
This week, people across the world willhonor our environment and celebrateEarth Day. The League of Women Votershas long fought battles to protect clean airand water, prevent harmful pollutants thatcontribute to climate change and informthe public of what they can do to get in-volved in the ongoing battle to protectpublic health and the environment.
Earlier this year, the EPA published agroundbreaking proposal, creating thefirst-ever federal carbon pollution stan-dard for every new power plant built inAmerica. Power plants are our singlelargest source of carbon pollution—ifadopted, this proposal would be a gamechanger for the climate.
Encourage the EPA to finalize thisgroundbreaking regulation to ensure acleaner, healthier future for everyone.
The unlimited dumping of carbon pol-lution is the chief cause of climatechange—that means more frequent andviolent storms and extreme weatherevents. Reducing the amount of carbonpollution from power plants is a life-sav-ing measure that will protect our children,our nation and the world.
Corporate polluters are already doingeverything they can to block this impor-tant health protection.
Support EPA’s Limits on Carbon Pollu-tion.

Long-term mobilityDear Editor:
State Senator Darrell Steinberg ofSacramento gets it right in his long-terminvestment plan that has cap and tradedollars going to statewide transportationimprovements, including mass transit andhigh-speed rail. This cannot be an eitheror proposition.
If we are to minimize congestion andreduce greenhouse gas emissions, evenwith population growth, we will need tothink in terms of short and longterm mo-bility. Mr. Steinberg’s plan gets it done.

Guess what? Parking issues at wilderness park remain unsolved
The parking restrictions continue tomount as use of the ClaremontHills Wilderness Park steadily
climbs. The Claremont City Council Tuesday night added
additional permit parking-only zones on three residen-tial cul de sacs next to the bustling wilderness area—Holyoke Place, Macalester Place and Forsyth Place.These permit parking zones are expected to sunset inSeptember 2015, along with a slew of other wildernessloop parking restrictions, as the city works on an over-arching master plan to solve lingering parking prob-lems.
Issues of overcrowding, traffic and safety at thewilderness park are not new for the Claremont council,only increasing with the expansion of the northernparking lot on Mills Avenue last year. An attempt to ad-dress the hordes of hikers, bicyclists and other natureenthusiasts using the park—estimated at around300,000 a year—the parking lot has only proved an ad-ditional problem as park users find alternative parkingspots to avoid the $3 fee, moving the problem furtherdown Mills.
While the council has been quick to address these is-sues, doling out permit-parking only zones in adjacentneighborhoods and no-parking zones along Mills, it isnow adopting a different approach. Council membersunanimously rejected a request to increase the no-park-ing zone on Mills Avenue from Alamosa to Miramar.Parking is already prohibited from the park entrance toPomello.
Instead, council is asking city staff to consider a stayon any more requests for permit-only parking and re-evaluate the restrictions on Mills. In an effort to in-crease visibility while turning, Mayor Pro Tem CoreyCalaycay also suggested painting the curbs red at inter-sections along Mills and adding a more specific timeperiod to the “no parking” restrictions.
“Our own [city speed] survey suggests that there arespecific times when there are problems,” Mr. Calaycaynoted.
Many at the meeting were supportive of the permit-parking requests, but agreed with Mr. Calaycay that thecouncil is setting a troubling precedent by continuingto grant these restrictions.
“I live in a cul de sac, there are eight of us. If I geteight people to sign a piece of paper saying I want re-stricted parking, will the council approve it?” ques-tioned Claremont resident Richard Weiner, a park userwho serves on the Technical Advisory Committee forthe wilderness park master plan.
He and others urged the council to continue workingon the master plan before approving any more tempo-rary fixes.
“What’s happening now is the shotgun approach,”he continued. “If you take away that parking, all youdo is put a Band-Aid on the problem and move theproblem farther and farther down.”
As the council takes a step back, the city moves for-ward in the process of building a comprehensive park-
ing plan for the Claremont hillside. The next TechnicalAdvisory Committee meeting, open to the public, takesplace on May 19 with a community workshop set forJuly 21. City’s sanitation service increases fees
It’s the same song for Claremont’s sanitation fees. In2012, Claremont residents saw a rise in their sanitationbill, the first in four years. Though only an increase of$7 on average for the whole year, the dent in locals’wallets continued to deepen with another increase ap-proved in July 2013.
The increases are set to continue through 2020. Inorder to retain the city’s own sanitation operation, atwo to three percent rate increase will be needed from2015 to 2020, according to a 10-year projection pre-pared by city staff. The evaluation takes into accountanticipated increases in personnel and disposal costs,vehicle replacements and a $500,000 annual expendi-ture to pay down debt associated with the constructionof the City Yard facility, to be fully paid by 2024.
“The 10-year financial projection demonstrates thatthe fund will maintain sufficient revenues to sustain op-erations through 2024,” said Kristin Turner, commu-nity and human services manager.
“In 2020, the city will no longer be responsible forpaying debt service on the City Yard facility, eliminat-ing $500,000 in annual expenditures,” she continued.“Staff anticipates that further rate increases will not benecessary between 2020 and 2040.”
Though recognizing the burden of increasing rates,council members were in favor of maintaining thecity’s sanitation operations as is.
“There are benefits to having a local municipal sys-tem,” said Councilmember Sam Pedroza, who worksfor the Sanitation Districts of Los Angeles County.“We operate a system that works really well and havebeen successful in obtaining long-term contracts insolid and green waste.” —Beth Hartnett
COURIER photo/Steven FelschundneffThe Claremont City Council increased residential per-mit parking in the city on Tuesday night by limitingparking on three streets near the wilderness park.
Recent litigation is fuel-ing an unusual amountof activity in a midterm
election year for local democ-rats, as officers of a Claremontpolitical club’s executive boardprepare for court over a moneydebacle.
Several years of conflict came to ahead last month when group membersRudy Mann, Zephyr Tate-Mann and BobGerecke, representing the Inland Com-munities Democratic Political ActionCommittee (PAC), filed a complaintagainst the Democratic Club of Clare-mont (DCC), its president Gar Byrumand former treasurer Debi Evans forclaimed fraud and breach of contract,among other allegations.
The complaint was filed, according toMs. Tate-Mann, in response to a lettersent to the PAC in late February from anattorney representing Mr. Byrum and theClaremont democrats, asking for reim-bursement of what the DCC considered a$12,600 loan to the regional political ac-tion group in 2009 to go toward the pur-chase of permanent regionalheadquarters. The letter further states thatfailure to repay the amount would resultin the matter being taken to court.
Ms. Tate-Mann and Mr. Gerecke, whois currently vice president of the DCC,maintain that the PAC doesn’t owe anymoney to the local club and, in fact, areowed $64,000, as stated in the complaintfiled March 11. An itemized accountingfor the $64,000 figure wasn’t provided.However, Ms. Tate-Mann holds that thePAC’s attorney has the information nec-essary should court proceedings moveforward.
“We believe that their ultimate objec-tive is not just to extort $12,600 from thePAC, but to destroy the PAC by trying toforce it to spend money in a lawsuit thatis based on false allegations, personalsmears in its pleadings and misrepresen-tations,” she said in a statement shared inperson with the COURIER. Mr. Gereckeaccompanied her.
The DCC has responded to the PAC’slawsuit with litigation of its own, claim-ing the trio of PAC members are in-volved in “fraud, embezzlement andmisappropriation of fundraising funds.”
The conflict centers on donationsraised during the 2008 presidential elec-tion. A temporary democratic headquar-ters, located by Mr. Byrum but paid forby regional democratic clubs, was set upat Garey Avenue and Foothill Boulevard.Miscellaneous merchandise—lawnsigns, bumper stickers and the like—wasgiven out in exchange for donations. In
the end, proceeds were to be split amongthe groups involved, according to DCC’streasurer at the time, Merrill Ring, whosays the DCC’s share was $12,600.
In early 2009, DCC executives saidthey were approached by executives ofthe PAC, who were asking for monetarysupport in their quest to set up a perma-nent regional office for local Democrats.In a promissory note dated October 17,2009, provided by the DCC’s attorneyDaren Hengesbach, the DCC agreed, inwriting, to loan the PAC $12,600 for thisendeavor.
The promissory note, signed by Mr.Mann and Mr. Gerecke on behalf of thePAC and by Mr. Byrum and Ms. Evanson behalf of the DCC, asserts that “if thePAC succeeds in establishing such a fa-cility, this loan will be forgiven and willat that time become a contribution.” Itfurther states that the PAC will “repaythis amount without interest when and ifthe PAC abandons its effort to establish afacility for use by Democratic candidatesand organizations.”
At a DCC meeting in late February,during an agenda item calling for an ac-counting of club funds, the 2013-2014board reviewed the outstanding loan.
“In the absence of a regional head-quarters, it was determined at that pointin time that they had an obligation to thepeople who donated the money and the
members of the DCC to find where thislarge chunk of money is,” Mr. Henges-bach said in a meeting with theCOURIER late last week. Mr. Byrumand Mr. Ring were both in attendance.
“The President of the PAC, RudyMann, personally found the sources ofthe swag [donation merchandise],arranged for its purchase and delivery,picked it up at his own expense for gaso-line when delivery was not available, setup the displays in the headquarters build-ing, set the level of donation required toobtain each piece of [merchandise], mar-keted it to visitors to the headquartersevery day from opening to closingtime...He did this with the explicit under-standing that he was raising money forthe PAC,” Ms. Tate-Mann said.
According to both parties, verbal re-quests for an accounting of the $12,600were made over the years, however, Ms.Tate-Mann explains that there was neveranything in writing asking for an ac-counting.
“Who’s going to pay for an account-ing?” Ms. Tate-Mann posed. “The PACappropriated all the money and effort forthe swag and the promotion was all doneby Rudy [Mann]. The facts are that Rudyraised all the money.”
The DCC refutes this claim.

CITY NEWS
Amonth-long manhuntcame to an end lastweek with the arrest
of a 34-year-old man, accusedof assaulting a 12-year-oldClaremont girl.
Joseph Chandler Davall was takeninto custody at his home in Yucca Val-ley on Friday morning after a short pur-suit involving Claremont police and theSan Bernardino Sheriffs.
“This is good for our victim andgood for our community,” ClaremontLieutenant Mike Ciszek said at a newsconference last Friday.
The District Attorney’s Office hasfiled several criminal charges againstMr. Davall, who appeared in a Los An-geles court on Tuesday. Accusations in-clude rape by force or fear and assaultwith intent to commit the rape of aminor. He is being held at the Men’sCentral Jail in Los Angeles for $5 mil-lion bail. He is due in the Pomona Su-perior Court on May 14 at 8:30 a.m.
Mr. Davall was arrested based on ev-idence found at the crime scene, ac-cording to Lieutenant Mike Ciszek,who would not elaborate on whether ornot it was DNA evidence. Detectivesworked through the night on Thursdayto gather information on the suspectand complete a search warrant, servedlast Friday morning. Evidence relatingto the Claremont crime was found at hisresidence, police confirmed.
The Claremont Police Departmenthas not released a photo of Mr. Davallor further details at this time as addi-tional evidence suggests Mr. Davall
could be involved in at least 10 or 15related crimes throughout southern Cal-ifornia, according to Lt. Ciszek. Onlyone Claremont victim has been identi-fied.
Mr. Davall has been arrested beforeon a number of other charges, includingdomestic violence. Online recordsshow that Mr. Davall was arrested bythe Desert Springs Police Departmentin 2012 for rape, armed force and resi-dential burglary.
A man by the same name has beenpreviously linked to the Claremontarea. According to the California De-partment of Food and Agriculture, aJoseph C. Davall is registered as a certi-fied producer of dates at a farm locatedon Capp Road in Desert Center. Mr.Davall was arrested in 2012 at the sameaddress, according to police records.Mr. Davall used to rent a booth at theClaremont farmers market, accordingto market manager Oscar De Leon, butstopped three or for years ago.
The minor was at home alone in lateMarch when she was awoken from hersleep by strange noises, according topolice. Mr. Davall, seen standing overher, allegedly proceeded to physicallyand sexually assault her. Police havenot disclosed how Mr. Davall gainedentry to the home, but have said in pre-vious statements that they do not be-lieve he forced his way in. It is notbelieved that the family knows the sus-pect.
“At this point it looks like a randomevent,” Lt. Ciszek said.

Charges filed against man insexual assault of 12-year-old
COURIER photo/Peter WeinbergerThe idea for the Pitzer College Hackathon on Saturday was really quite sim-ple—recruit a group of talented people from a variety of backgrounds to de-termine how technology can help build a stronger Claremont community.In this quite informal atmosphere, teams were assembled to discuss spe-cific issues where technology applications might help the city.
“It’s no different than a GirlScout who sells Girl Scoutcookies and then says, ‘You
know what? It’s my efforts that got themoney, I’m keeping it,’” Mr. Henges-bach said.
Confirmation of the PAC’s date of formation wasnot readily available. According to records filed withthe Federal Election Campaign Commission (FECC),the Inland Communities PAC did not report campaignfinancing until October of 2009. Ms. Tate-Mann ex-plains that prior to 2009 the PAC operated under an-other name, the Fair Action Think Tank, which sheclaims was founded in 2003. No records of that or-ganization exist with the FECC, created in 1974 tohelp regulate laws relating to campaign finances.Among the FECC’s chief duties is making campaignfinances available to the public. She says this is be-cause the PAC came into existence when “reportingswere not done electronically as they are now.”
Much remains in question as the PAC’s attorneysprepare a response to the DCC’s lawsuit and bothsides, seeing no easy solution, prepare themselves forcourt. Both sides have expressed disappointment inthe increasing divide litigation is causing in the DCCmembership. —Beth Hartnett

EDUCATION Claremont COURIER/Friday, April 25, 2014 5
Awell-known Clare-mont couple is split-ting up. On
Monday, April 21, theClaremont School of Theol-ogy sent out a press releaseannouncing it is ending itsrelationship with ClaremontLincoln University.
Trustees of the Claremont Schoolof Theology “ask all who care for theseminary to hold both schools inprayer as they move forward on sepa-rate paths.”
The release is not a bombshell, ac-cording to Rev. Dr. Jeffrey Kuan, the7th president at Claremont School ofTheology. Instead, he says it is simplymaking public a parting of ways that isalready underway.
“The decision for separation actu-ally began with Claremont Lincoln Uni-versity when they began to seek theirown accreditation and to become inde-pendent, to be no longer embedded atClaremont School of Theology,” Rev. Dr.Kuan said. “We had no decision over that.It was a Claremont Lincoln Universitydecision.”
Jerry D. Campbell is the 6th presidentof the Claremont School of Theology andthe founding president of Claremont Lin-coln University. He says the plan for theschool—which has been recognized as acandidate for accreditation by the WASCSenior College and University Commis-sion—has always been for it to becomean independent, freestanding institution.
“That’s why it was initially incorpo-rated as a California corporation,” hesaid.
As in the dissolution of any union,there’s a bit of a he-said, she-said qualityto the schools’ estrangement.
CLU’s curriculum has been signifi-cantly streamlined in recent months.Originally, the school planned to offermaster’s degrees in ethical leadership, in-terreligious studies, interfaith chaplaincyand interdisciplinary or comparative stud-ies, as well as doctoral programs in prac-tical theory and religion.
CLU now only offers a master’s de-gree in ethical leadership. Master’s de-grees in interfaith action and socialimpact are said to be in the works, ac-cording to the Claremont Lincoln Uni-versity website.
All other programs are being phasedout, though the CLU site notes that somemay still be offered through the Clare-mont School of Theology.
Trustees and administration at Clare-mont School of Theology maintain thatsuch changes are a sign that ClaremontLincoln University has opted to “moveaway from its interreligious roots and be-come a secular-focused university.”
Mr. Campbell begs to differ. The termsecular is “a slight misunderstanding,” hesaid. Religion, he emphasizes, is thewhole point of a Claremont Lincoln Uni-versity education.
“We don’t teach Christianity or Ju-
daism or Islam or Jainism or Buddhism,”Mr. Campbell said. “We teach you howto lead across those groups, and how tobring those groups together.”
If a student wants to gain a deeper un-derstanding of a particular faith, or to beordained as a minister, rabbi, cleric orother religious leader, Mr. Campbell saidthey are encouraged to do so through oneof Claremont Lincoln University’s part-ners.
Currently, that consortium includes theClaremont School of Theology; the Bud-dhist University of the West; The Acad-emy for Jewish Religion, California; andBayan Claremont, an Islamic graduateschool being established by the IslamicCenter of Southern California with thehelp of Claremont Lincoln Universityand under the umbrella of the long-ac-credited CST. Claremont Lincoln Uni-versity organizers hope the consortiumwill expand to include an institution rep-resenting Roman Catholicism as well asProtestantism and those dedicated toSikhism, Jainism and Hinduism.
The Claremont Lincoln Universitywebsite still lists the Claremont School ofTheology as a member of its consortium.The Claremont School of Theologyboard will meet on May 20 to vote onwhether or not they will continue thepartnership.
“Claremont Lincoln is very much aconsortium-related institution because[the school] itself doesn’t teach a partic-ular religion. That’s what its collaboratorsteach,” Mr. Campbell said. “If CSTchooses not to collaborate in the consor-tium, we will have to find [a new] Chris-tian partner.”
Dr. John Cobb, emeritus professor intheology at Claremont School of Theol-ogy, emphasizes that since he is retired,he is only an observer of the differencesthat have arisen between the two schools.While he doesn’t think CLU organizersintended to be misleading, he believes theadministration and staff at CLU may feelthey were sold a bill of goods.
Staff and administration once assumedthat the fledgling school would be runlike a liberal arts institution, Dr. Cobbsaid. With the use of adjunct faculty and
the preponderance of online instruction,he characterizes Claremont Lincoln asembracing a “corporate model” of edu-cation.
“If the people at CST had known thisfrom the beginning,” Dr. Cobb said, “theywould never have gotten started [with thepartnership].”
CST staff members—who helped de-velop many of the degree programs CLUonce planned to offer—thought theywould have a greater amount of input inthe development of Claremont LincolnUniversity, Rev. Dr. Kuan agreed. Thereare now no tenure-track professors on theCLU staff, nor are there any instructorsfrom the Claremont School of Theology.
“If you go into their website, the pre-vious faculty listed have all been re-moved,” Rev. Dr. Kuan said.
The fact that Claremont Lincoln Uni-versity is planning to offer an increasingamount of classes online is also troubling,the administrator confirmed.
“I can’t imagine wanting clergy out inthe world without having the experienceof being face-to-face with faculty,” hesaid.
Mr. Campbell said that while he is dis-appointed that more CST faculty are noton the staff of CLU, that development isa result of the nature of the institution. Itis crucial for Claremont Lincoln Univer-sity to forge partnerships with many in-structors deeply immersed in an array ofbelief systems, he said.
As far as the online question goes, Mr.Campbell said it’s a matter of practicality.
“Even in the early days, our partnershave been scattered all over the Los An-geles area,” Mr. Campbell explained. “Ifyou have to drive from Claremont to thewest side or vice versa, it is quite a com-mitment. And the question becomes, ed-ucationally, how does Claremont Lincolnmake it fair for all of the collaboratingpartners to have easy access to the samematerials?”
Claremont Lincoln University has nointention of denying its students face-to-face interaction with instructors, Mr.Campbell corrected. “We’ll put thecoursework online and then supplement itwith what we call summits, where we get
together for a week and get to meetand interact with each other.”
Claremont School of Theology,which moved to the City of Trees in1957, traces its history to 1885 withthe founding of Maclay College inSan Fernando.
Language in the CST release—“Claremont School of Theology’s his-toric connection with the UnitedMethodist Church played a major rolein the decision to end the relationshipwith Claremont Lincoln Univer-sity”—makes it inevitable that someobservers will see the school’s deci-sion to separate from CLU asparochial.
The Rev. Dr. Kuan, however, in-sists this is not a case of CST rejectinginterreligious studies. He noted thatthe school plans to maintain strongrelationships with The Academy forJewish Religion, California, BayanClaremont and are in the process of
strengthening further interfaith partner-ships.
“Frankly, the vision of interreligiouseducation has been very much a part ofthe DNA of Claremont School of Theol-ogy,” he said. “There is already a readi-ness on the part of the faculty to move inthis direction of interreligious education.
“We are not giving up on what we be-lieve needs to be the theological educa-tion model for the 21st century,” Rev. Dr.Kuan continued. “We are going to do itnow without the encumbrance of a struc-ture that did not work.”
Mr. Campbell still has faith in the prac-ticability of Claremont Lincoln Univer-sity, which he says will help desegregatetheological education.
“In the past, what’s tended to happenis each religion teaches its own futureleaders,” he said. “We have religious con-flict because part of the curriculum hasnever been ‘How do you get along with,collaborate with and work with people ofother religious traditions to solve com-mon problems?’ We want to change that.”
Each school president has said hewishes the other institution Godspeed asit moves towards its goals.
In the meantime, like all coupleswhose relationship is at an end, the insti-tutions have begun separating their af-fairs. For instance, Claremont LincolnUniversity, once housed on the CST cam-pus, has obtained offices in the village, ashaving a separate office is a requirementof accreditation.
“From some points of view, [the sepa-ration] is a great tragedy,” Dr. Cobb said.“The danger when a division takes placeis that people are angry and blame eachother, and there’s not much point in anyof that.”
Perhaps it is best for the two schools,with their differing models of education,to diverge, he said.
“Maybe the two institutions can liveside-by-side and overlap and make con-tributions to each other,” Mr. Cobb said.“That’s what I hope will come out of it.”

Schools part ways as Claremont Lincoln seeks accreditation
COURIER photo/Steven FelschundneffThe Claremont School of Theology and Claremont Lincoln University are separatingtheir operations due to a growing divide in institutional vision.
By all accounts, Pope Francis hashad a successful first year as leaderof the Catholic Church. Celebrated
for paying his own bills, washing the feetof non-Catholic prison inmates, residingin simple guest quarters at the Vatican andpublicly pondering “Who am I to judge?”Francis has surprised the world as a mod-est pontiff who leads by example.
His likeable personality has turned him into amedia superstar. In 2013, he was named Time maga-zine’s “Person of the Year”; on Ash Wednesday, hisofficial magazine, Il Mio Papa, ‘My Pope,’ hit thenewsstands in Italy; he appeared on the cover ofRolling Stone in February; and his Twitter account issteadily growing by 4,000 followers a day. Althoughthe Pope’s assembly of five million followers doesnot rival Justin Bieber’s 35 million, give him time—there are 1.2 billion Catholics in the world who wantto hear what this man has to say. His profile pictureshows a curious, friendly grin in front of a brilliantsky blue background. His handle, @Pontifex, reads“Welcome to the official Twitter page of His HolinessPope Francis.”
Pontifex refers to a member of the supreme collegeof priests in ancient Rome. In Latin, it once meant‘high priest or chief of the priests.’ The word derivesfrom pont- ‘bridge,’ and facere, ‘make.’ Althoughbridge-building was once regarded as “pious work ofdivine inspiration,” the term also had the metaphori-cal meaning of ‘path-maker.’ The high priest wasthought to build a path between the earthly world and
that of God. Pontiff or ‘high priest’ derives from pon-tifex and has been used to refer to the Bishop of Romesince the mid-1600s.
The Bishop of Rome is not the only job descriptionthat the Pope must live up to. His position comes witheight official titles! He also answers to Vicar of JesusChrist; Successor of the Prince of the Apostles;Supreme Pontiff of the Universal Church; Archbishopand Metropolitan of the Roman Province; Sovereignof Vatican City State; Servant of the Servants of God;and Primate of Italy. To this last honorific, I raised aneyebrow. Although currently ‘primate’ refers to hu-mans, monkeys and other mammals, it initially meant‘high bishop or archbishop,’ from the Latin primas,‘of the first rank, principal.’
The word ‘Pope’ comes from the Latin papa, andearlier the Greek papas, ‘father.’ Obvious word rela-tives include ‘papist,’ adherent of the pope, ‘papacy,’papal office and the newer ‘popemobile,’ the infa-mous 1970s white bubble cruiser that transportedJohn Paul II. Less common word derivatives of Popeare ‘popery, pontificial, popish, popedome and pa-parchy.’
Although Francis may be getting off to a cleanstart, the papacy is no stranger to scandal. The expres-sion ‘Pope Pocket’ came about in the late 1400s to de-scribe a secret pocket sewn into a garment. It carriedthe underlying reference of a greedy and corruptchurch. Believe it or not, ‘nepotism’ also comes fromthe pope. In Italian, nipote means ‘nephew or grand-son.’ This came from the Latin nepotem ‘nephew,grandson.’ The meaning of nepotism in English is at-tributed to the ancient practice in Italy of nepotismo,or granting special privileges to the Pope’s nephews.Yes, nephews: The term nephew was a widely ac-cepted epithet for the Pope’s many illegitimate sons.
Other words relating to the church’s hierarchy in-clude ‘vicar,’ ‘a representative or deputy of a bishop,’which is the noun form of the adjective ‘vicarious,’and is derived from the Latin vicis, ‘change, inter-change of position.’ ‘Holy,’ from the Germanichailaga, once meant ‘that which must be preserved,whole or intact.’ It is associated with Old High Ger-man, heil, ‘health, happiness or good luck.’ Expres-sions such as holy smoke, holy mackerel, holy cow,holy Toledo and holy moly are all considered eu-phemisms for the less acceptable blasphemes, holyChrist or holy Moses.
Perhaps Jose Bergoglio’s mass appeal has some-thing to do with the fact that he has lived an atypicallife for a Pope. He reports that he was once a litera-ture professor, laboratory worker, floor sweeper andeven a nightclub bouncer. Known for his honesty, hehas chosen to take the name of St. Francis of Assisi.‘Francis’ comes from the French François, and earlierLatin Franciscus. It literally means ‘frank, free, lib-eral and generous.’ As I see it, these are words that allCatholics can (and should) feel hopeful about.

LEXCITYIN THE
TRAVEL TALES/page 9
@Pontifex #aRegularguyBy Mellissa Martinez
A parishioner asked, “If our Lord has blood, does it have DNA?”
The city has refused tomake public the resultsof the study conducted
by Alta Planning and Designon the use of the wildernesspark in 2012 and 2013. Tworeasons were given in its re-sponse to a public records re-quest.
The first was “Alta Planning and De-sign did not complete a report” and thesecond was that the raw data gatheredwas “considered draft and as such thepublic interest served in withholdingsuch clearly outweighs the public inter-est served by disclosure...”
Nevertheless, the letter of rejectionnoted, the “raw data” would be sup-plied to MIG, the company undertakingthe current park master plan. Clare-mont’s assistant city manager suggestedat the city council meeting this pastweek that the reason the raw data
would be given to MIG was so it couldbe checked for accuracy. All three “ex-planations” are inadequate and under-mine the credibility of the city ofClaremont.
The issue of park usage is very im-portant and arises in virtually every dis-cussion of the wilderness park,including those focusing on the preser-vation of the park’s flora and fauna, onthe disturbances of neighbors’ lives, onthe need for residential parking restric-tions and so on. This very week MGIdistributed a draft survey—one part ofwhich is a count of park users—forpublic comment, indicating the contin-uing importance of the issue of usage toplanning the future of the park.
Nearly two years ago, in May of2012, the city council was so concernedwith “overuse” that it decided to under-
take a usage study. In July of that year,staff circulated an RFP (i.e., a Requestfor Proposal) for such a study.
On receipt and review of the propos-als submitted in response, staff recom-mended hiring Alta Planning andDesign to undertake the study. In earlyOctober of 2012, the community andhuman services commission approvedthe contract. Later that month, citycouncil members unanimously ap-proved the proposal, including the costestimate of almost $35,000. The countwas conducted in two phases, the firstin December 2012 and the second inJune of 2013. Nevertheless, the find-ings of the counts were never madepublic.
All three grounds the city hasclaimed justify its refusal to release in-formation on the studies are unreason-able and a violation of democraticprinciples of governance.
First, the city claims that a final re-port was not made. If that is so, whyhas the city not sued Alta Planning andDesign for breach of contract? Why hasit not sought a return of the paymentsmade to the company? Why has theClaremont public not been told of theproblem and how it is seeking to get theinformation required by the contract?And, why has the city not made publicthe “raw data” it says it obtained fromAlta Planning and Design?
Second, the city claims that noknowledge of the raw data would bemore in the interest of the public thanknowledge of it? That is a strange argu-ment to make. If the research approach
was flawed, why had this not beenpointed out during the three-fold vet-ting process: first by staff, then by thecommunity and human services com-mission and then by city council?
If the volunteers who collected theusage data were inadequately trained orthey somehow corrupted their counts,where is the evidence? To argue thatClaremont is better off not knowingsomething than knowing something isabsurd, especially in a community con-taining some of the finest small col-leges in the United States.
And, third, the argument that the“raw data” had to be verified by MIGbefore it was released is irrelevant. Therequest for the report of the study sim-ply asked for the report and did not askfor a report verified by anyone. Mostreaders of such a document are verylikely to view it from their own criticalperspective. They do not want an adul-terated version—or, a version revised toaccord with the views of a particulargroup.
Thus, the refusal of the city to pro-vide the citizens of Claremont with thewilderness park usage study is an indi-cation of a significant challenge to thecity’s democratic credentials. The citi-zend’ “right to know” ends when thosein power want it to end. Granted, manyof the forms of a democratic system ofgovernment are here. But what is clearis that the substance can be entirely un-democratic, even given those forms.This is a case of such a violation—asad lesson for all of us.

Why does the city hide information about public use of the wilderness park?by Dean E. McHenry, Jr.
VIEWPOINT
Claremont COURIER/Friday, April 25, 2014 8
ogy can help build a stronger Claremont community.More than 60 students, entrepreneurs and city folk didjust that, assembling under sunny skies on Saturdayafternoon to develop applications in an effort to keepClaremont connected.
“Claremont remains a relatively isolated place,” Mr.Ceraso said. “We are still behind when it comes to tech-nology and software. We wanted to provide techies andnon-techies alike the chance to make the city more dig-itally accessible.”
Hackathons have gained notoriety in an increasinglydigital world, with corporate giants like Facebook andLinkedIn using such events to find the latest crop ofgifted computer programmers or test out new ideas.Local leaders like Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcettihave also taken to the model as an effective and cost-ef-ficient way to increase civic involvement. In 2013, Mr.Garcetti’s National Day of Civic Hacking event resultedin the creation of more than 40 apps geared at helpingAngelinos navigate the local job market, provide an on-line exchange for local gardeners and helping connect-ing Los Angeles residents with local hospitals, schoolsand other government organizations.
It got Mr. Ceraso thinking. The students of the 5Cs are no novices when it comes
to hackathons. In November, more than 335 studentscrowded into the Pomona Computer Science Buildingfor 12 hours of computer programming as part of the5C’s annual Hack Day marathon. Mr. Ceraso wantedto take it a step further by holding his hackathon outsideand inviting the whole community to participate.
The result was a resounding success with local busi-ness people and city officials lending their support. MikeMcNeill of the Village’s Last Drop Cafe and Coun-cilmember Sam Pedroza were among the participants.
“We would bounce ideas off each other and chat fora while and then [the students] would go to computers
and just start pounding away. You could see the cre-ativity pouring out,” Mr. Pedroza said. “It was reallyvery impressive.”
Even more impressive to the local council memberwas the outcome of the brainstorming sessions. High-lights include a computer application where commu-nity organizations and businesses can post events andlocal deals and a site for use through the public librarythat connects homeless individuals with the resourcesthey need. Though the Hackathon was a one-day event,
Mr. Pedroza plans to meet with Mr. Ceraso to bringsome of these programs to fruition.
“These students are using their skills to help benefitthe city in a way that we never even thought possible,through the development of these apps and programsintended to make life easier and help connect peoplewith the resources available,” Mr. Pedroza said. “It’sthe best example of a true town and gown relationship.”

HACKATHON/continued from page 4
COURIER photo/Peter WeinbergerAs part of a student-led effort to bridge the gaps in the Claremont community, Pitzer College studentshosted the city’s first civic hackathon last Saturday.
There is shopping to acquire andshopping to admire. My shoppingfalls in both categories. I do love to
buy “new” things for myself even if theyare old, dirty and faded. I also love to ad-mire the colors and shapes, to feel the tex-tures and softness of fabrics as well as tobe stimulated by the creations of othersthat are foreign to me. Shopping in Indiamanages to fulfill all those sensory needs.
When we were in Pondicherry in India’s south onthe Bay of Bengal, we were directed to a specific tai-lor who worked from an open stall in the center of alarge marketplace. To find him, we were led on wind-ing paths through stalls of vegetables stacked in neatpiles of color and shapes. The sales people wereseated in the midst of it, all dressed in flowing shawlsof soft cotton and bright colors. Photographic oppor-tunities abounded, and I took full advantage of it all.
Finally, we reached the cloth market. Our tailor hada large covered corner booth with steps around thesides and tons of fabric piled high. He sat on a chairwhile a young girl, who was ordereing clothes to bemade, displayed the fabric to an Icelandic womanperched on one of the steps. Scarves of every huehung around us, fluttering in the light breeze. Howcould one resist? Well, we didn’t. I had brought someclothes from home to have copied along with fabric Ihad bought in a Khadi Bavan shop in Chennai. Wetalked for a few moments and that was it. The nextday, the clothing was delivered to my hotel finishedperfectly.
I am drawn to the Khadi Bavan shops that can befound all over India. Originally, these were foundedby Gandhi as he introduced small wheels for spinningcotton to his people to create a natural, simple, tex-tured cotton cloth at affordable prices. This type ofwork can still be found at the Khadi shops along withvillage made natural soaps, hand-spun silk fabric andready-made simple clothing. I love this basic textilework. This is where I bought my fabric that I gave tothe tailor.
There are zillions of shops all over India sellingclothing of every variety, for every style, taste andpocketbook. However, size can be a problem as smalland medium are more easily found even if the labelsays large or extra large. Once I got started, I could goand go, investigating every place I passed but I havetwo favorite places—Fabindia and Anokhi. Both spe-cialize in clothing of various Indian styles using hand-printed and colorful cotton textiles. We spent hourschoosing and trying on shirts, dresses, and shalwarkamises (Indian-style pants and tops) which glowedand flowed with lovely hand-stamped designs manymade in Jaipur, Ragisthan. The only problem was thatmost of them were just not big enough and I had totry them all on to find one or two that fit and that Iliked. We found these shops in the large cities as wellas the smaller touristed ones and checked them allout.
Then there was the antique shopping. Most of theshops in touristed areas now seem to be run by Kas-miris. Most of the articles they sell hardly vary fromshop to shop and area to area. The men stand or sitoutside their shops and gesture and grab at passersbyusing whatever enticement they can think up. I al-ways like the one, “but you promised to come back...”when I had never even been by before.
Here, I found mostly that the jewelry was ordinary,the embroidery, once hand done, is now made by ma-chine and the salesmen are pushy. I tended to keepaway. But there were shops that carried older items ofwood and metal. They weren’t ancient and, perhaps,some were fakes but some of the small statues were areal delight. These often caught my eye but moreoften than not I could not afford the prices asked and,even when bargaining, the final price was above what
I wanted to pay. People know the worth of what theyhave.
In Pondicherry, we stayed in a heritage guesthousefilled with old, ceramic figures of daily life and Godsand Goddesses. I was charmed by their simplicity andalmost primitive look but I never saw them in any ofthe shops. When I asked the owner of our guest houseabout this, he said his wife bought them and if I wasinterested he was sure she would take me to whereshe shopped. The next day, she picked us up and herdriver took us out along a major road leading out oftown. We stopped at four of her favorite shops that Iwould never have found on my own as they were out-side of the town in an industrial area where no touristswere present. They were dusty shops, piled high withold and often rotting furniture, windows and doorsand then, stuffed way in the back, were the old figuresI had lusted after. Rows of them in all sizes andshapes. After I had chosen the pieces I wanted—actu-ally, I wanted more but could not carry them all homewith me—she bargained for me and got a good price.I have used these pieces in my art work.
My friend Barbara shopped for silver jewelry. I wasnot as interested as I like to find old, used pieces that Ican take apart and reuse in my own work. But wewere sent to a shop that was located upstairs and inthe back of a place that we would never have foundon our own to look at clothing and silver jewelry. Wespread out on the floor and surrounded ourselves inpackets of lovely silver pieces. It was Barbara’s turnto wallow in shopping heaven and we spent hourslooking, sorting and choosing with no pressure orneed to rush. This is the nicest way to shop.
As a tourist traveling in India, one cannot help butbe drawn into the sights and smells, tastes and colorsof the people, shops, markets and scenery. The coun-tryside overflows with the vibrancy of color and lifeand it’s exciting just to be a part of it. The colors ofthe clothing and fabrics reflect the vitality and beautyof the Indian environment and I found myself underits spell, caught in the pleasures of shopping, shop-ping, shopping.

Temple Beth Israel Holocaustremembrance to focus onAmerican response to genocide
In connection with the nationwide theme of the 2014Holocaust Remembrance Week, this year’s commem-oration at Temple Beth Israel will focus on the Ameri-can response to Nazi evil before, during and afterWWII, as well as America’s continuing role in com-bating genocide. The event will take place this Sundayafternoon, April 27, at 4 p.m. at the synagogue at 3033N. Towne Ave., Pomona.
The centerpiece of the program will be the screeningof the short film Confronting the Holocaust: Ameri-can Responses, produced by the United States Holo-caust Memorial Museum in Washington. This film andthe other aspects of the event will address two seminalevents in Holocaust history: the refugee crisis in thespring of 1939 and the deportation of Hungarian Jewsfive years later.
“Remembering the Holocaust obligates us not only tomemorialize those who were killed,” a statement fromthe USHMM says, “but also to recognize the importanceof taking action in the face of hatred and genocide.”
Cantor Richard Schwartz of Temple Beth David inTemple City, California will be the featured musicalartist. In keeping with the theme of the day, Mr.Schwartz will share musical compositions created inAmerica as a response to the dark events in wartimeEurope. The musical program will include additionalcontributions from Cantor Paul Buch, pianist Dr. RandyPolevoi and flautist Dana Sundene.
There will also be remarks by Rabbi Jonathan Ku-petz and contributions from other members of the TBIcommunity, including author and poet R. Gabriele Sil-ten, a child survivor of the internment camp Terezin(Theresianstadt).
Memorial candles will be lit to remember the six mil-
lion Jewish victims of the “Shoah” (Hebrew for Holo-caust) and the six million other victims of Nazi atroci-ties. Candles will also be available for participants tolight at their homes.

Art showcase highlights work of creative teensWinter in the United States and
Canada marks the migration ofthe beautiful Monarch butterfly
to Mexico. March signals the return of theswallows to Capistrano. Locally, May willbring the stunning sixth annual Art Show-case of Claremont High School advancedart students to the Village of Claremont.
This year’s showcase will open with an artists’ re-ception next Friday, May 2, from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m.at the Claremont Community Foundation (CCF), lo-cated at 205 Yale Ave.
A part of the CCF’s mission is to provide commu-nity outreach and to “promote and facilitate philan-
thropy through community leadership.” The CHS stu-dent art showcase provides CCF an opportunity toserve as a leader and partner to help create positivechange in our community by highlighting the creativ-ity of Claremont’s youth.
Sponsorships from Tim Harrison at BroadviewMortgage and, for the last two years, Bobby Hyde, byway of the Claremont Noon Rotary, cover the cost ofthe materials for matting and framing the studentwork in preparation for the students first “outside ofschool” exhibit to the public.
The exhibition will include work from students ingrades 10 through 12, representing work from thoseenrolled in advanced placement (AP) and advancedart (drawing and painting) and photography, AP com-puter graphics and International Baccalaureate visual

“The show makes you feel professional,” Melissasaid. “It’s so cool to have our work matted andframed, so everyone can see it. The opening nightwith the reception was so lively last year. And havingcommunity members asking us about our art, it’s justa nice way to celebrate our work.”

Saturday was an exciting day for Claremonters of all ages, par-ticularly this young boy who managed to hop away before ourphotographer could ask his name. The city’s Spring celebra-tion, a free community event held at Memorial Park on Satur-day, featured a petting zoo, magician, crafts, potato sack races,an egg hunt and more.
You can see the focus in the eyes of these kids as they sprint to the closest candy treat.Whether you are a 3-year-old hunting for the first time, or a mom following her child to lend ahelping hand—there will always be a little competition when looking for these fun-filled treats.
The magic show, led by master magician Minh Tran, was one of the mostpopular acts of the day. Here, Mr. Tran pulls a bird out of a bag with the helpof Daniel Zuver, 7.

Image courtesy of littlefaithmusic.comGospel/soul band Little Faith will perform at Hip KittyJazz and Fondue on Friday, May 2 at 8 p.m.
When Claremont senior MaryHanna won the 100-yard back-stroke, it was obvious the Lady
Wolfpack was going to dominate St. Lucy’sWednesday at Damien High School.
Hannah just kept piercing through the waters, un-fazed by her opponents, finishing first with 1:09.23,kicking off the Wolfpack’s 99-71 victory.
“I tried to have long, smooth strokes,” Hanna said.“After the turn, I just sprinted and hoped for the best.”
Despite some moments where the St. Lucy’s stole thespotlight in the short-distanceevents—junior Bailie Carroll wonthe 100-yard freestyle in 54.97;freshman Johnna Encarnacion wonthe 200-yard IM, 2:22.30—CHS managed to pull offamazing results, including freshmen Naseem Nazariand Katrina Strash who finished first and second re-spectively in the 50-yard freestyle.
Nazari finished in 26.08 and Strash finished in 28.52.Strash said she worked on her technique with Head
Coach Courtney Eads and Assistant Head Coach JoyStein, to fine tune her dives and turns in the pool. Shewas quite pleased to finish strong in this fast event.
“It’s always been my best event,” Strash said. “Aftera while, I just used all the confidence I had to finish.”
Strash later confronted a nail-biter scenario againstone of her rivals, Johnna Encarnacion, in the 100-yardfly. Right when the buzzer went off, both executed per-fect dives and it was an even lead after the first 25 yards.
Strash broke loose at the 50-yard mark at 29.21 butEncarnacion managed to power through the second-halfand finish first in less than .6 seconds at 1:01.93. Strashfinished second, 1:02.39.
Then it was sophomore Samantha Duran’s turn tospark even more energy for the CHS fans. After win-ning the 200-yard freestyle and earning the pool recordwith 1:56.14, she took the 500-yard freestyle in 5:13.82,and finished with a 50-yard lead over Regent swimmerSamantha Escalante. Duran dropped five seconds offof her personal record.
The Lady Wolfpack’s 4x100-yard team finished firstand also earned the pool record, 3:52.46.
“This was one of our toughest meets,” Coach Stein
said. “The team did well and we hope to move this mo-mentum forward when we face Chino Hills.
The boys’ swimming team had some difficulties fac-ing Damien High and lost, 135-35.
Junior Adam Ward, who earned second place in the100-yard fly at 56.78, said his overall strokes weregood, along with his turns. He remains confident toqualify in this event for CIF preliminaries.
The date and time for CIF prelims is still being de-termined, but both the girls and boys swimming arenow preparing for their away meet at Chino Hills HighSchool at 3:30 p.m. on April 30.
Boys volleyball struggles against BurbankThe boys volleyball team lost their away game
against Burbank High School 3-1 on Wednesday, re-sulting in an overall record of 10-11 and a league recordof 4-4, according to head coach Bernie Wendling.
They are also fourth in the Sierra League standings. “We blew them off in the third set and it was pretty
fun, but then Burbank managed to shut us down,”Coach Wendling said.
In the first set, the Bulldogs won 25-19, followed byanother victory in the second set, 25-17. Along with theWolfpack’s standout win in the third set 25-15, juniorDonovan Robinson earned 16 kills, Coach Wendlingsaid.
Senior Eran Bechor earned five kills and sophomoreBronson Sloboudnik earned four. With the Wolfpackholding on to the final spot for CIF playoffs, they hopeto have it in their grasp for the remainder of the season.
The Wolfpack will face at their court Crescenta Val-ley High School at 7 p.m. on Friday.
Strong pitching not enough to keep CHS baseball from another loss
The Wolfpack’s baseball team lost against SouthHills High School, 2-1 at home. Missed opportunitiesand a rough seventh inning were the cause, according tohead coach Geoff Ranney.
Senior pitcher Jonathan Ochoa pitched well and eventhrew a no-hitter into the sixth inning, Coach Ranneysaid, but the team was unable to capitalize for a win.
“We are just a half step behind, but we’re a lotcloser,” Coach Ranney said.
The Wolfpack belted five hits with one error; the
Huskies had six hits.CHS wants to turn things around in their final home
game against the Huskies at 3:30 p.m. on Friday. TheWolfpack has had a rough season on the ball field, hold-ing an overall record of 3-16.
