Kathleen Howe, director of the Pomona College Museum of Art discusses the planned construction of
the colleges new art museum during a meeting on Monday in Claremont. College officials would like
to build the museum on the land west of College Avenue between Bonita Avenue and Second Street.
The site selection has met with some public resistance, but Pomona College President David Oxtoby,

Dear Editor:
August 2015 marks the 50th anniversary
of the passage of the Voting Rights Act
(VRA). This landmark civil rights legislation has protected voters from discrimination for nearly half a century. The VRA is
one of the most significant laws ever passed
by Congress and it changed America. But
today, the Voting Rights Act does not offer
the same protections it did in 1965.
Two years ago, the US Supreme Court
gutted key provisions of the VRA in its
Shelby County v. Holder decision, weakening vital voter protections. Since then Congress has done nothing to repair the damage.
Congress currently has before it various
proposals, but theres been no action, no
legislation passed. As a result, voter dis-

crimination at ballot boxes across the nation


has become more pronounced and we are
dangerously close to holding our first presidential election in 50 years without critical
protections once embodied in the VRA.
Each and every eligible American voter
deserves to be treated fairly and have free
and equal access to the ballot. During the
August congressional recess, voters should
be loud and clear that the right to vote is fundamental to our democracy. Tell Congress
its time to restore the VRA. The League of
Women Voters has been standing its ground
in the fight against discrimination and for
voting rights protections for 95 years, and
restoring the VRA is an important step to
keep our elections fair, free and accessible.

ABOVE: Under Pomona Colleges master plan, the 57-year-old modernist Montgomery Art Center
on the corner of College and Bonita avenues has been slated for demolition. The university envisions a new art museum to be built on the west side of College between Bonita Avenue and Second Street.
ATLEFT: Pomona College President David Oxtoby references a model of the university as he discusses the art museum that Pomona wants to build on College Avenue. Mr. Oxtoby sees the museum, which conceptual plans estimate will span about 32,0000 square feet, as a gateway between
the university and the Village.

New museum location causes town-and-gown friction

nitial steps are being taken toward


what Pomona College President
David Oxtoby said has been a decade
in the works. The college recently released concept drawings for the Pomona
College Museum of Art. But, in typical
Claremont fashion, the proposal has not
been met without its share of scrutiny.

As described at a May 2015 community meeting,


the new museumat an estimated 32,000 square feet,
about 10,000 of which will be below gradewill provide public space and courtyards, as well as teaching
space, galleries and offices. However, it isnt the scale
thats given residents pause but, as any good realtor
will tell you, its location, location, location. Some residents feel Pomona College shouldnt extend its reach
to the west side of College Avenue.
Weve been west of College Avenue for many,
many years, Mr. Oxtoby said. This will not be a dramatic change.
This move to the west side of College has raised
some eyebrows, and tempers, in recent weeks. Preservationists argue that the four bungalows, part of the old
Claremont Hotel, hold some historic value. The college
disagrees and has scheduled demolition of the structures. One thing everyone seems to agree on is that
Renwick House, a Victorian home on the site used for
staff offices, should remain.
The city has talked with us about moving it across
the street, Mr. Oxtoby said. This is a very new concept.
Renwick Housebuilt by Helen Renwick, a widow
from Iowa, who moved here to raise her only sonis
home to the colleges annual giving office. The structure will continue to house offices once its moved to
the east side of College Avenue, south of Second
Street.
For many, moving Renwick House goes against the
basic tenets of preservation deeply held by Claremont
residents.
By proposing a large-scale institutional building on

These conceptual drawings show the type of structure Pomona College would like to build for its new
museum and Renwick House, which will be moved to
an adjacent parcel at the college.

the block between Second Street and Bonita on the


west side of College Avenue and moving the iconic
Renwick House from its historical location, Pomona
will in effect destroy the historic residential feeling that
is part of its own legacy, David Shearer, president of
Claremont Heritage, wrote in a recent COURIER
viewpoint.
For Pomona College, maintaining the traditionally
cordial town-and-gown relationship is a primary consideration in not just museum design but execution of
the colleges 15-year master plan.
When you look at the bridges built the last century,
a lot of it starts with Pomona, Mr. Oxtoby said. Being in this relationship is extremely important to us.
After several years of planning, teaching at
Pomona College began in 1888 in the city of
Pomona. At an annual tuition of $45 a year, students
could earn one of three degreesarts, literature or
sciencefrom a five-room rented house on the corner of Mission and White avenues. With a desire to
replicate universities on the East Coast, Pomona College founders set their sights on Claremont, a burgeoning town that was naming streets after prominent New England institutions of learning, according
to the college website.
After the Claremont Hotel set to close in 1888,
Pomona College was invited to use the space, along

with several hundred surrounding parcels, under the


agreement that the parcels would be sold at some point,
with the land donors receiving a portion of the sales.
Much has changed since the early days. Pomona
now hosts roughly 1600 students a year with a teaching staff of about 200 people. And with $2.1 billion in
its coffers, Pomona is now the single most endowed
liberal arts college in the nation. With all this growth,
it should be noted that in its 100-year history, Pomona
has added only 40 acres to its original 100-acre campus.
As Scott Smith, campus architect and master planner
for Pomona College, explained at the spring community meeting, the master plan aims to build on heritage
plans, not rewrite history.
I want to emphasize the stewardship of the last
100 years, he said at the meeting. We not only
want to maintain the campus, but to restore what has
been lost.
In response to residents concerns, Mr. Smith assured the 80 or so people at the meeting that no element of the master plan extends the college beyond its
current boundaries. And as far as residents claims of
college creep, Mr. Smith echoed Mr. Oxtobys assertion that protecting interaction with the city is of utmost importance.
We look at the new museum as a transition building, Mr. Smith said. The connection between college
and civic life was an important contribution [with the
master plan].
As it stands, Pomona College will continue its
longterm agreement with the Claremont Public Library
for use of the back parking lot, which is owned by the
college but is on, what Mr. Oxtoby describes as, a
100-year lease of about a dollar a year. The college
also believes the proposed location will create a synergy that will complement the library.
For Mr. Oxtoby, Claremonts bustling Village will
make a perfect partner for the hybrid museum-community space.
There is a lot going on downtown, he observed.
Like Bardot, its such a vital place. When we see that
level of activity, its exciting.

Two juvenile robbery


suspects arrested

t about 12:40 a.m. on Wednesday,


August 19, Claremont police officers responded to Rosa Torrez
Park, located at 774 W. First St., to investigate a robbery that had just occurred.
The caller said they heard three women at the park
screaming that theyd just been robbed. Among the
items taken were a Calvin Klein purse with a Michael
Kors wallet.
The three female victims were in the park when two
male juveniles approached them, one simulating a
handgun, then demanded their purses. The women
complied and gave up one purse. One of the teens was
reportedly wearing white gloves.
The suspects left running west through the park. Detectives followed up and, based on the suspects descriptions, identified two persons of interest. Officers
attempted to contact them at their apartment, but they
were not located.
A police department employee saw the teens near
Indian Hill and Foothill boulevards, where one individual was detained and the other fled on foot. He was
captured a short distance away in the 500 block of
West Foothill Boulevard.
Police arrested the boys and they were transported to
the Claremont Police Department. The juveniles, ages
14 and 16, were interviewed and booked. They were
later transported to Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall in
Downey for incarceration until their court appearance.

Village businesses report broken windows

laremont police responded to the


restaurant Dr. Grubbs, located at
353 W. Bonita Ave., on Monday,
August 17 at approximately 7:12 a.m.,
regarding the report of a smashed window.
When the officers arrived, they found that an un-

that the 31-year-old Pasadena resident
had urinated in a trashcan outside the
craft beer establishment and seemed
poised to drive off on his motorcycle
parked outside the brewery. Officers located Mr. Prado-Zaragoza in the parking
lot and determined that he was unable to
care for himself. He was arrested and
held for detox.
****
Claremont police were called to Walters at 1:30 p.m. with a report that three
men were positioned outside of the
restaurant trying to start a fight with employees. One of the subjects had removed his shirt and, according to the
police report, bouncers were holding
him back. Police asked the trio, who reportedly had boasted they were members
of an Apple Valley gang, to leave the
restaurant and not come back. As they
were in no shape to drive, the ber-pugnacious friendsone still shirtless and

known suspect smashed a window at the location and


gained entry into the building. Someone also smashed
the front windows of La Olla, 363 W. Bonita Ave. and
Salad Farm, 373 W. Bonita Ave. and entered the businesses searching for cash. There was minimal property loss, according to police.
Anyone with information regarding this investigation should contact the Claremont Police Department
immediately at (909) 399-5411.

Claremont police were contacted at

were convinced theyd gotten a raw deal.
It was explained that the party of three,

something decidedly fishy about the
story, police advised the staff that there
was little they could do, as the disagreement was a civil issue.

A resident entered the Claremont Police Department at 9:12 a.m. to report a

windows.

Theres a fine line between making a


political statement and creating a nuisance. At 11:38 a.m., Claremont police
received a report that someone had
crossed that line. After taping a ripped
American flag to the door of Dr. Grubbs
restaurant on Bonita Avenue in the Village, a man began badgering customers.
Police made contact with the man and
asked him to leave. No word on whether,
by the dawns early light, the flag was
still there.
Monday, August 16
Police received a call at 11:30 a.m.
that a man walking through the Village,
with his trek beginning on Yale Avenue,
was creating a disturbance. The mystery
man, a white male in his 40s, was last
seen by the new speakeasy-themed bar
The Whisper House, located in the
Claremont Packing House. Failing to
take a cue from the establishments
name, he was reported as being argumentative with passersby. Both the man
and the bone he had to pick with the
world at large were gone by the time police arrived to the scene.

At 10:44 p.m., police received a report
of a burglary in progress at Star Drugs in
the Sprouts shopping center on Foothill
Boulevard. The suspect, a white male,
had been seen limping toward a dark
blue minivan before taking off. Police arrived to the scene to find the drug stores
windows smashed. They located the
minivan shortly after and the driver consented to a vehicle check. Nicholas
Matthews, a 29-year-old Montclair resident, had fresh cuts on his left wrist and
shattered glass on his T-shirt. Property
from the store was found in the minivan,
and Mr. Matthews was arrested for the

Tuesday, August 18
Police received a call at 7:19 p.m.
from an Elder Drive resident concerned
about some material left at her house.
Someone had posted a flyer expounding
on the subject of America, the promised land, and why as a nation we have
failed. She felt that local law enforcement should be alerted to the presence of
the pamphleteer because obviously
someone is off their rocker.
****
Living in close quarters can create tension, as evidenced by an altercation between roommates at a Doane Avenue
residence. Police received a call at 1:33
a.m. regarding a battery in progress. The
caller reported that her roommate, after
having thrown a television at her
boyfriend, was threatening to kill the
couple. Police arrested 54-year-old
Claremont resident Pamela Gross for
making criminal threats and she was
held on $50,000 bail.
Wednesday, August 19
Police were called to a residence in the
500 block of San Jose Avenue at 5:41
a.m. with a report that a vehicle had been
stolen. The car in question, which went
missing sometime between 3 p.m. on
Tuesday and the time of the call, was a
2000 black Honda Civic that was apparently in the midst of restoration as it featured white custom rims and a paintjob
described as mostly primer.

POMONA MUSEUM/from page 3

omona Museum of Art Director


Kathleen Howe shares the presidents excitement at being part of
people walking. She emphasized that
the new museum will benefit not only students and faculty, but the community as a
whole.

We will be able to bring in exhibitions that we


simply cant now, Ms. Howe explained. The American Alliance of Museums has not permitted certain
exhibits because of heating and air issues [at Montgomery].
Current programs offered at Montgomery, including the Claremont Museum of Arts ArtStart program
and public school field trips, will continue at the new
site. In fact, Ms. Howe projects that these types of
civic activities will only increase.
It will be a teaching museum, she said. Weve
planned for collection portals and study rooms and
separate spaces for our Native and non-Native collections, as well as curriculum galleries where Pomona
students can gain experience curating their own
shows.
The proposed museum will offer art vaults in the
basement, allowing for proper storage of Pomonas
collections. There was even mention of a movie
screen to be located in a courtyard for film screenings
that will be open to the public.
Ms. Howe explained that the college has considered several locations since discussions first began
between her and Mr. Oxtoby in 2003. Sealy-Mudd,
the south side of Bridges Auditorium and the corner
of First Street and College Avenue were all explored.
Sealy-Mudd was a landlocked site, Ms. Howe
explained. It would cost more to locate the museum
there than it would to build a new building.
As far as the backside of Bridges Auditorium, the
bowling-alley shape didnt offer the kind of open
flow conducive to art exhibition. Special consideration went into making the College Avenue and First
Street site work but, as Mr. Oxtoby explains, moving
a sports field isnt as simple as it seems.
I was reluctant to just stick the softball field in the
wash, he said. It just doesnt work, and we need to
have a softball field.
About a block east of the corner of First and College was also considered but, as mapped out in the
master plan, student housing is planned for the space.
The fact remains, Pomona may have a fight on its
hands as the college moves forward with construction
on the west side of College Avenue.
As Mr. Shearer pointed out, Locating an institutional building here, with the mass and scale as presented by Pomona, would destroy the historic residen-

tial feeling and be in direct opposition to the community values that are outlined in the general plan.
For now, the future Pomona College Museum of
Art is only conceptual, the college reiterated. Breaking ground will necessitate the commission approvals
required for any new construction in the city, as well
as a zone change. Pomona has resubmitted its updated
master plan to the city consultants for review. The update includes further detail on the museum project.
The city will coordinate the timeline for public review
and comment; the schedule will be published in the
COURIER when it becomes available.
The college will host another community meeting
on September 29 for residents to view the model, hear
plans and to talk with Pomona College staff.
In the coming weeks, well take a closer look at the
Pomona College master plan and provide continued
coverage on the museum. For information on the proposed museum, visit www.pomona.edu/new-PCMA.

Tasty bites in the summer and in Claremont


by John Pixley

ho knew that a can of vegetarian


chili, a can of white hominy and
some shredded cheese could
taste so good? It was something my mom
would just whip up when I was young and
something I would have when I had my first
apartment in college.
Actually, after years of living in the dorm and eating in
the dining hall, coming up with this recipeif that was
what it waswas downright special, sort of exotic and
homey at the same time.
Yes, it was always good, a simple comfort-food dish,
but a few weeks back, it was extra tasty. This is probably
true of any cooking on a camping trip.
Really, a can of pork and beans is pretty good cooked
over a camp fire or a Coleman stove.
Thats what my friends and I were doing a couple
weeks ago. We were camping at Morro Bay State Park
for the weekend, using a large Coleman I had bought,
and that old chili and hominy recipe was better than ever.
No doubt it was because we were camping. Whats more,
we were camping and also able to cook organic baby
spinach from Trader Joes.
I call that living the high life in the rough. It was even
higher the night before, when we had spaghetti with
marinara sauce and vegetarian Italian sausage with zucchini.
Im thinking of having pork and beans on the next
camping trip. But it will be vegetarian baked beans and
tofu hot dogs. With maybe broccoli on the side.
And it will be extra tasty, no doubt.
****
Tofu hot dogs are one thing, but tofu shrimp, or vegan
shrimp, is a different story.
I told a friend that Junction is a whole other world. Actually, what I said was that the restaurant on Indian Hill
in the Village is like something in LA.
But thats not the only way its so different. The restau-

observer
rant specializes in dishes that feature Mexican and Korean elements, making for a spicy, succulent blend. The
menu, some of which appears to have started off in a food
truck, includes kimchi tacos, and Ive had a burrito with
chicken marinated Korean-style. So tasty. On my last
visit, I had a rolled spicy quesadilla, presented like sushi
rolls, which was stunning.
Theres more. Not only is there this crazy, wonderful
fusion, truly a junction, but there are vegetarian/vegan
options on many of the items on the menu. I had my burrito with vegan chicken and my quesadilla with vegan
shrimp. For me, the fact that its not a vegetarian/vegan
restaurant but has these options (at no extra cost) sends
it over the top.
Another worldLA and beyondindeed, and right
here in Claremont.
****
I was glad to see that Junction was featured during
Claremonts Restaurant Week last month. It certainly
does deserve every promotion. In fact, wasnt it noted in
Sunset or some such magazinemaybe it was Gourmetnot long ago?
Its great that Claremont has a Restaurant Week. Many
cities have one, and its good to see Claremont getting in
on the act. Yes, its a gimmick, just a promotion, but,
again, a bit of promotion doesnt hurt.
I have to admit that I dont usually think of eating out
unless Im away. I have several restaurants that I like to
go to when Im in Los Angeles, for example. But that has
been changing in the last year or so. Its just nice to eat
out now and then, and with exciting places like Junction
right here, I dont have to wait until I go to LA. Plus, its
less of a hassle, with no traffic for one thing.

Every Friday in print. Every day online.


claremont-courier.com 621 4761

One question I do have about Claremonts Restaurant


Week: Why is it held during the summer when the college students are gone? Dont the students want to know
about nearby restaurants? Dont they want a break from
dorm food?
Maybe not. From what Ive seen, the students these
days at the colleges have little reason to venture off campus to eat. Not only do these students have more attractive choices, with a number of themed stations in the
dining halls, than I did in the eighties, when the vegetarian option was mac and cheese or sometimes fettuccini
alfredo, their vegetarian and vegan choices are impressive. They may not have vegan shrimpalthough I
wouldnt be that surprised if they didbut what they do
have is a real improvement from 30 years ago and worlds
away from the mystery meat that my mother said
everyone got when she was in college.
****
Vegan pulled pork, anyone?
From what I see, there is all kinds of dining going on
at the Monday evening concerts at Memorial Park. I have
wondered why the concerts now start earlier, at 7 instead
of 7:30 (and do they sometimes start even earlier than
that?) But one thing hasnt changed: As the crowds get
bigger and bigger, I have seen quite a variety in what people are eating there.
Yes, there are the hot dogs and ice cream sandwiches,
along with the buckets of fried chicken and Subway
sandwiches that people bring. There are also the baggies
of brie and grapes and the picnic baskets full of prepared
salads and marinated meats. It is also not unusual to see
table cloths spread out on the lawn, along with silverware, china, wine glasses and candles.
Ive been hearing a lot this summer about the pulled
pork that the Kiwanis are selling at their booth at the concerts. Thats all well and goodvery good, no doubt
but I have a question: When will the Kiwanis or someone
else start selling vegan pulled pork there?
Doomies in LA sells an awfully tasty vegan pulled
pork sandwich. It cant be so hard for Claremont to catch
upits well on its way, anyhoweven in the park.

Claremonts tree emergency


by Mark von Wodtke, FASLA

ur community is a risk
of losing a lot of trees. If
Claremont loses 1,000
trees, which may be valued on
average at more than $10,000
each (a large Elm at Memorial
Park has been valued at about
$80,000), we risk losing as
much as $10 million in assets.
These 1,000 trees provide natural services (cooling, air filtration, oxygen pro-

duction, etc.) worth about $4,000 per tree


(based on studies by the Center for Urban
Forest Research in Davis).
Natural services provided by 1,000 trees
are worth about $4 million. We can debate
the economic value of trees as more trees
become diseased and die, but this will
only drive up the added liability risks of
dealing with diseased limbs and dead trees
as well as the cost of removal. The point
is that our community could lose tens of
millions of dollars of tree assets and millions of dollars of natural services as public and private trees die.

CLASP welcomes new director


Jan Creasey was appointed CLASPs
new program director at the board of directors meeting held July 30.
Ms. Creasy, who recently retired after
37 years of teaching English Language
Arts in the Alta Loma school district, has
mentored new teachers, stepped up as a
leader in the areas of technology and literacy, and served as department chair
from 2006 to 2014.
CLASP offers after-school homework
help and mentoring as well as enrichment and recreational activities to children in grades K-6 in CUSD. From her
own teaching experience, Ms. Creasey
said she understands and appreciates the
work that CLASP does.

I believe that some students learn better in a one-on-one situation and that
sometimes instruction slowed down,
given with another explanation or delivered in a different way helps in understanding, she explained. It seems this
is what CLASP is all about.
CLASP tutoring is offered at the
Blaisdell Park Community Center, the
Claremont Presbyterian Church, Claremont Village Apartments Community
Room, Good Shepherd Evangelical
Lutheran Church and the Wheeler Park
Recreation Building.
For information on tutoring or volunteering, call (909) 450-1079 or visit

VIEWPOINT

Trees define Claremont, the place each


of us has selected to live. How we treat our
trees expresses our environmental ethic
as a community. Our urban forest contributes to our quality of life. Recent studies validate the subtle health benefits of
trees. Trees also help address both causes
and effects of a changing climate.
What can we do to protect this heritage? The city is having a tree assessment done to identify stressed trees and
develop emergency Treeage strategies
to save them. Its like fighting a fire, except
whats happening is slower and the effects aren't as dramatic.
Each of us needs to take responsibility
for watering trees. The Tree Action Group
(TAG) of Sustainable Claremont and the
Tree Coalition coordinated by Claremont
Heritage are distributing fliers on how to
do this and we have also produced a video
on saving water and trees. Please join in
these volunteer efforts and ask people to
water distressed trees.
City staff is working to reestablish
emergency mobile watering capabilities,
using a power-washer that has a small
tank-on-a-trailer that could be filled from
fire hydrants on each street with a mobile
meter. Staff is also using a water-jetter
truck. The 1,600-gallon tank could be
filled with reclaimed water from the TriValley water plant. Water basins with
mulch and biochar can help retain emergency water in the root zones of established trees that are at risk. The city is using water bags on new trees. Water
injectors could also help get emergency
water into tree root zones.
At the same time, we should modify ir-

rigation systems, especially where turf is


being removed. Drip lines should surround stressed trees. As a stopgap, we
could make immediate use of soaker
hoses.
TAG is asking the city to reestablish
Claremonts Tree Fund. With this fund, the
city could accept donations collected
through Sustainable Claremont and Claremont Heritage. The city should also collect
penalties from those who neglect or damage city trees, adding to this fund. Claremont may be able to get grant funds from
sources such as Re-Leaf, which could go
to this fund to sustain trees.
TAG is working with the city to implement an Adopt-a-Tree program aimed at
rescuing the most significant trees and setting up ways for individuals, businesses
and neighborhoods to support planting replacement trees, once we have an urban
forest master plan.
Lets come together as a community to
sustain and regenerate our urban forest.
Please support our mayor in declaring an
emergency so the city staff can take more
action. Lets also encourage our city manager to hire a director of community services capable of dealing with this crisis, as
well as developing and implementing an
Urban Forest Master Plan to regenerate
and sustain our valuable urban forest.
Claremont needs to plan our green infrastructure and build a team to become
more proactive in dealing with drought,
and heat waves, as well as flooding that is
likely to come from a changing climate.
Most important now...Conserve water
AND water trees, especially throughout
August, September and October!

Local kid invites folks to toon in to his new show

he next time your kids


are watching cartoons,
you just might hear a familiar voice. Thirteen-year-old
El Roble student Blake Bertrand
has a starring role in the new series Shimmer and Shine,
which premieres on Nick Jr. this
Monday.

The show, aimed at preschool audiences, follows the adventures of a girl


named Leah whos befriended by two genies in training. Blake plays Leahs nextdoor neighbor and good buddy Zac.
The young Claremonter is no stranger
to the screen, both large and small. At 5, he
nabbed a part in the Adam Sandler film
You Dont Mess with the Zohan. Subsequently, hes landed roles in a host of TV
shows, including House, How I Met
Your Mother, Private Practice and
Wendell & Vinnie.
Along with his Shimmer and Shine
gig, Blake has an ongoing role in the animated Disney Channel cartoon Gravity
Falls. Voiceover work is an unusual job,
but its one he enjoys. Its really fun. Its
just me in a room and Im just reading my
lines, he said. The directors and producers are in another room, giving me tips
and stuff.
Playing a role convincingly is easier
with other actors on the scene. It helps that
Blake finds his character appealing. Zac
is very funny and kind of clumsy, and he
has this dog that hes always with named
Rocket. Hes a cool character, he said.
Recording the new show involves hourlong taping sessions a couple times a
week, plus round-trip freeway rides to the
Los Angeles studio.
Blakes older brother Jacob, 16, is also
an actor, notably playing the title role in
the Disney show Kirby Buckets. He had

COURIER photo/Peter Weinberger


Blake Bertrand, 13, is the voice of Zac onShimmer and Shine on Nickelodeon.

a longrunning role as the fish Gil in the


Nick Jr. show Bubble Guppies and has
performed in the animated features Rise of
the Guardians and ParaNorman and in
the live action film Jinxed.
The boys older sister Mckenna, 18,
was the first in the family to begin acting.
Shes too busy to undertake many auditions at this point, being in college at APU
where shes a member of the swim team.
Driving two kids back and forth to tapings and auditions constitutes a full-time
job for their mom Christina, but she sees
it as a worthwhile endeavor.
One thing thats so fascinating for the
kids is the people theyve met and get to
look up to, Ms. Bertrand said. They get
to see and be a part of animation, art,
singing, writing. They get to interact with
other voiceover actors and other kids, and
they get to see so many different careers.
Some people might view the boys
livesincluding Blakes current role on
a show about geniesas covered in stardust. Ms. Bertrand sees their involve-

ment differently.
If a kid is playing baseball or soccer on
a club team, you see the sacrifices and
commitment that has to go into it, she
said. Even though its acting, it could be
swimming or piano.
People will ask, Werent you worried
about exposing your kids to the pressures
of the industry? Ms. Bertrand continued.
With our kids, its almost like its an outlet for them. They love it.
Ms. Bertrand also credits their hometown for helping keep the boys grounded
in reality. I really love our community,
she said. Claremont is a college town
and its very down-to-earth. The kids ride
their bikes to the Village. They have their
friends here. We also have a lot of friends
in the industry.
Ms. Bertrand is well-suited to the task
of being a stage mom, albeit of the nonpushy variety. Shes organized, shes a
people person and she knows how to delegate. This includes relying heavily on an
agent who has represented her children for
almost 13 years and who has been a real
blessing.
Sometimes being an actor and a kid requires a juggling act. Blake has had to
miss a few classes. We probably shouldnt
share this, but though he says math and

English are fun, Blake calls the occasional


time off from school awesome.
In fact, Blake seems to find his doublelife awesome in general. He takes acting
classes from a professional coach. Hes
also taken drama at school and is looking
forward to getting involved with Claremont High Schools theater program.
The middle schooler enjoys the chance
to meet fellow actors and industry players
of every age and every level of fame. He
also loves to spend time cruising around
Claremont on his longboard. Styx is awesome, Blake said of the local board-shop.
Sometimes Jacob accompanies him.
Theres a sense of camaraderie between
the two brothers, whether they are vying
for roles, heading off for jobs or just chilling.
We hang out all the time, play basketball, go swimming, skim-boarding. We
wrestle sometimes, too. He mainly wins,
Blake said. And we give each other advice when going out for stuff and help
each other with lines.
Blake, who is going into eighth grade,
may have a grownup job, but his parents
treat him like any other kid. He recently
got a new TV, but only after fulfilling his
promise to get all As in school.
Hes humble but confident, having
spent years winning some and losing
some. Not getting a part you want is hard
at first, Blake said.
Its like, you cant take it personally.
Youve just got to keep on trying. Sometimes youll miss out just by your look,
he said. I started when I was like three.
Since my brother and I have been doing it
for a long time, we kind of get more yeses
than nos.
Blake, who counts many actors, including Brad Pitt, as role models, said he
hopes to continue acting. Its what I want
to doIts a lot of fun, he said.
And he has some advice for other
young people interested in getting a toe in
show business.
Just keep on trying and be yourself,
and eventually youll get something, he
said.

Top-ranked CHS water polo team ready to repeat

laremont High School


boys water polo coach
Kristin Rodriguez acknowledges that the Pack is the
team to beat after capturing a
CIF title last year. She said although the task will be harder
this year, the team is ready for
another great season.
Last years success included an overall
record of 22-11, beating rival Damien for
SPORTING
only the second time
LIFE
in 20 years, an undefeated record in the Palomares League
and then skating through the post-season
by outscoring every rival by double digits.
When we got into the season [last
year], we had some games that werent as
challenging, so I think this year that is not
going to be the case as much. It will be a
more equal playing field because they
had a lot of juniors and we had a lot of
seniors, said Coach Rodriguez.
We are seeded number one, so that is
exciting. We know we have a target, but
we had a target last year as well, she
added.
The challenge and excitement behind
building a winning program revolves
around the fact that star players all eventually graduate. It will be particularly
hard for Claremont this year since they
lost Steven Cagle, one of the best high
school goalkeepers ever.
To replace Cagle, Coach Rodriguez has
brought up junior Kellan Grant to be their
starting goalie.
He knows what shoes he has to fill, but has been
working his butt off all summer with myself as well
as with the club, she said. He has improved greatly.

CHS boys water polo coach Kristin Rodriguez acknowledges that the Pack is
the team to beat after capturing the CIF title last year. To get the team ready, sshe
will replicate last years strategy of playing a very tough preseason line-up.

COURIER photos/Steven Felschundneff


Claremont High School senior Johnathon Wong
takes aim on Monday during water polo practice at
CHS. Wong along with junior Bruno Snow and sophomore Ian Waasdorp will anchor the Packs effort to
repeat as CIF champions.

Hes not afraid of the ball, is very aggressive in the cage and is coachable.
Also moving on was the Packs top field
player Adam Ward, who was sidelined
most of the year but was a huge inspiration
despite injury. His work ethic pushed our
entire team, Coach Rodriguez said.
Returning to the offensive line, Bruno
Snow and Johnathon Wong are the two to
watch this year. Both had great seasons
last year and have been playing water polo
since elementary school, according to
Coach Rodriguez.
Sophomore Ian Waasdorp will become
the main defensive player replacing senior
Matt Turk, who will be more of an offensive threat and a driver for the team.
Im asking two of our guys to change their roles
completely. Ian was more offensive originally and
Matt was more defensive. I am switching them
around because I think it will be beneficial in the long
run, the Coach said.
To get the team, she will replicate last years strategy of playing a very tough preseason beginning with
the Santa Barbara Tournament, during which they lost
four games last year. The boys also have a scrimmage
against Ernest Righetti High School next week. The
schedule is pretty intense, she said.
Unfortunately Coach Rodriguez wont be able to
make the Righetti game because she will be leading a
top US girls team in an international tournament.
For six years she has been involved in the USA
Cadet National Team. This year, shell coach the 18
and under club at the Union Americana de Natacion
(UANA) tournament next week in Kingston, Jamaica.
She went to Hungary last year for training with the
team and the year before that was at a UANA tournament in Argentina. Her husband Alex Rodriguez will
also be attending to coach the boys team.
When she returns, the Palomares League competition will be just around the corner, with the first
games in the second week of October. She expects
tough competition from Ayala because of some crafty
players she spotted on club teams. In addition, Bonita
has a new head coach who appears to be a formidable
opponent, according to Coach Rodriguez.

creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the WILL or estate, or both of WILLIAM
JAMES GALLAGHER.
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by
JEFFERY GALLAGHER in the Superior Court of
California, County of LOS ANGELES.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that JEFFERY GALLAGHER be appointed as personal representative 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 obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal
representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or
consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless
an interested person files an objection to the 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: 09/09/15 at 8:30AM in Dept. 9
located at 111 N. HILL ST., LOS ANGELES, CA
90012
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition,
you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person
or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with
the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance
of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate
Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or
personal delivery to you of a notice under section
9052 of the California Probate Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult
with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

legalads@claremont-courier.com 909.621.4761
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

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER
ESTATE OF JACQUELINE A. CROWL
Case No. BP163829
To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent
creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of JACQUELINE A. CROWL
A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed
by Joelle A. Green in the Superior Court of California, County of LOS ANGELES.
THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that
Joelle A. Green be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.
THE PETITION requests the decedent's will
and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The
will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.
THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the
personal representative to take many actions
without obtaining court ap-proval. Before taking
certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived
notice or consented to the proposed action.) The
independent administration authority will be
granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why
the court should not grant the authority.
A HEARING on the petition will be held on
Sept. 2, 2015 at 8:30 AM in Dept. No. 5 located
at 111 N. Hill St., Los Angeles, CA 90012.
IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition,
you should appear at the hearing and state your
objections or file written objections with the court
before the hearing. Your appearance may be in
person or by your attorney.
IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contin-gent
creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim
with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later
of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California
Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of
mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice
under section 9052 of the California Probate
Code.
Other California statutes and legal authority
may affect your rights as a creditor. You may
want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable
in California law.
YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the
court. If you are a person interested in the estate,
you may file with the court a Request for Special
Notice (form DE-154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code
section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form
is available from the court clerk.

property:
551 WAYLAND CT,, CLAREMONT, CALIFORNIA 91711-5001
A.P.N.: 8314-013-011
The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for
any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown above.
The sale will be made, but without covenant or warrant, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession,
or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum
of the note(s) secured by the Deed of Trust. The total
amount of the unpaid principal balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable
estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of
the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is :
$363,421.63
If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidders sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the
Trustee, and the successful bidder shall have no
further recourse.
The beneficiary of the Deed of Trust has executed and
delivered to the undersigned a written request to commence foreclosure, and the undersigned caused a Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the
county where the real property is located.
NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you
are considering bidding on this property lien, you
should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a
lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid
at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you
to free and clear ownership of the property. You
should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off
may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at
the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off,
before you can receive clear title to the property. You
are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority,
and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this
property by contacting the county recorders office or
a title insurance company, either of which may
charge you a fee for this information. If you consult
either of these resources, you should be aware that
the same lender may hold more than one mortgage
or deed of trust on this property.
Note: Because the Beneficiary reserves the right to
bid less than the total debt owed, it is possible that at
the time of the sale the opening bid may be less than
the total debt.
NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale
date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed
one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary,
trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the
California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made
available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those
not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether

The recent sale of our Claremont home presented some very
unique challenges. Carlos and Pat handled my former home
as if it were their own. They kept me informed,
responded with professionalism and reassurance, and made
sure that as their customers, my ex-husband and I were their
top priority. The house ended up selling for higher than
asking price. I recommend Carlos and Pat Samuelson with
complete confidence and a heart full of gratitude.
