Base Line still hot spot for Claremont development

C
laremont continues to
build and change, as ev-
idenced by several proj-
ects on the citys radar.
The Meadow Park development, the 95-
unit high density condominium develop-
ment on the site of the former strawberry
patch, is moving forward after a season-
al setback from the LA County Fire De-
partment, according to Claremont Princi-
pal Planner Chris Veirs.
The developer needed permission from
the fire department to reroute utilities, and
the city couldnt allow them to continue
construction unless they got the okay, Mr.
Veirs noted.
That permission from LA County
Fire took much longer than anticipated,
he said. So that stopped the project for two
or three months.
The development had been a source of
frustration from the city in the past, when
William Lyon, the developer behind
Meadow Park, stopped construction in ear-
ly 2016 due to unsure market conditions.
The city eventually had to issue an ulti-
matumeither continue construction or
tear down the projectand building be-
gan again.

opment that would have completed the Vil-
lage Expansion.
But years of inactivity by property
owner and developer Denley Investment
and Management culminated in June
when the city council approved vacating
the developers plans for the Village
Lofts, essentially forcing Denley to start
over again.
For now, the lot remains exactly that
a fenced-off empty space in the middle of
the Village. As the property owner, Den-
ley is still responsible for the upkeep of the
property, Mr. Veirs said.
For now, the city is working with the de-
veloper to clear some weeds and dust to
improve the overall condition of the prop-
erty. Denley has been silent in regards to
another possible development, Mr. Veirs
said.
Information is still up in the air regarding
the vacant standalone building in Pep-
pertree Square, which has been without a
tenant since it was built a few years ago.
Mr. Veirs noted the city is not aware of any
tenants that were imminent at the space.
At the northeast corner of Claremont lies
the upcoming Sycamore Hills Plaza, an
80,000 square foot shopping center that
straddles the border of Claremont and Up-
land west of the 210 freeway on Base Line
Road.
The two anchors of the center, located
in Upland, will be a CVS Pharmacy and
365 by Whole Foods; a smaller, cheaper
iteration of Whole Foods geared toward
millennial shoppers.
According to Mr. Veirs, about 16,000
square feet of the centercomprised of
two buildings at the west end of the prop-
ertyare within the Claremont city lim-

are set to occupy spaces within the Clare-

 EDUCATION
New Pomona College president brings unique perspective
A
s a scholar and professor of English
literature, published author, re-
searcher in neuroscience and an ac-
ademic dean, the multidisciplinary ap-
proach employed by G. Gabrielle Starr
throughout her career has not been one of
happenstance.
It is practiced curiosity, she said. There must be an
effort to integrate different kinds of knowledge very in-
tentionally.
Ms. Starr, who began her tenure as the 10th president
of Pomona College this summer, grew up in Tallahassee,
Florida. She began undergraduate studies at Emory Uni-
versity at 15, earning bachelors and masters degrees in
womens studies. She continued her studies at Harvard
University, earning a PhD in English literature in 1999.
A postdoctoral fellowship followed at the California
Institute of Technologyfunded in part by a Mellon
Foundation Fellowship and a grant from the National Sci-
ence Foundationand led to a research project in cog-
nitive neuroscience.
Her research at CalTech crossed academic disci-
plines in neuroscience and psychology. Through MRIs,
Ms. Starr explored how people responded to paintings,
music and other forms of art often called aesthetic ex-
perience.
Her second book, Feeling Beauty: The Neuro-
science of Aesthetic Experience, was an exploration of
new tools for analyzing the way people respond to works
of art or other aesthetic objects, she explained. Ms. Starr
proposes that the aesthetic experience should not be lim-
ited to only conventional objects of beauty, like flowers
or a poem.
Lots of things on the outside arent visually appeal-
ing, she said. The neuroscience of aesthetics shows us
that even something like a crucifixion, which shows the
body in horrifying ways, can be powerfully significant
to us.
Ms. Starr emphasizes that peopleparticularly those
in academianeed to look at, and tackle, challenges or
conflicts from many different angles.
We need to ask ourselves, What if a scientist
looked at this? How would a historian look at the prob-
lem? This was one of the things that drew me to Pomona
Collegethe understanding that there are different
views to different problems, she said.
Her research at CalTech wrapped up in 2000, so Ms.
UCC to host womens
fellowship dinner
The Women's Fellowship of the Claremont
United Church of Christ will host the Spirit of
Women dinner at 6 p.m. on Sunday, September 17
at Claremont United Church of Christ, 233 W.
Harrison Ave.
Amanda Lucia, associate professor of religious
studies from the University California Riverside
will offer the keynote address. Ms. Lucia will dis-
cuss spiritual seekers who seek transcendence in
alternative ways. Her first booktitled, AMMA:
Devotees in a Global Embrace, focused on the
hugging saint and guru. Her second book will
focus on religious festivals of all kinds including
Burning Man, yoga festivals, Holi and other spiri-
tual but not religious ritual experiences.
Tickets for the event, which is open to commu-
nity members and will be catered by Euro Cafe,
are $20.
For information and registration, contact Donna
Bernard at dbernard007@yahoo.com.
G. Gabrielle Starr began her first semester as the new president of Pomona Collegethe first time a woman
and African American has been appointed to lead Claremonts oldest university. Ms. Starr, who was for-
merly the dean of New York Universitys College of Arts and Science, started in July.
Starr headed east to New York University after accept-
ing a faculty position in the colleges English department.
Her career at NYU would last 15 years, during which time
she served as chair of the English department, director
of undergraduate studies and, lastly, as dean of the Col-
lege of Arts and Science before joining Pomona College
this July.
Ms. Starrs appointment last year as Pomonas presi-
dent is one of many firstsshe is the first African Amer-
ican and the first woman to hold the position.
Its surprising were still at a place of firsts in the should not be issues of the left or right, she said. But
American experience, she said. It is both humbling and
mildly irritating.
Her job as college president, she says, is to represent
faculty, staff and the student body and to find ways to pro-
mote interaction between the groups. As a woman and
an underrepresented minority in academia, she feels con-
fident she can provide a new perspective to the Pomona
College community.
They can see the path ahead, she said. The men-
torship is not restricted. There is an openness from which
everybody can benefit.
She is settling nicely into Claremont life with her hus-
band, two children and, most recently, her mother. They
have found Claremont very friendly, she says, and enjoy
early-morning walks to the Sunday farmers market and
visits to the local libraries. Ms. Starr values both the col-
lege town vibe and the intentionality with which Clare-
mont commits to providing services, but there are a few
West Coast traditions that contrast her East Coast life.
California is a pastry culture, but New York is a bagel
culture, she quipped. And the poke bowls? Thats def-
initely a California thing.
Culinary differences aside, she looks forward to her
tenure and has set out to provide opportunities for ex-
change between the Pomona community and the student
body, who are the last generation of millennialsa group
she believes have gotten a bad rap. She describes them
as generous and empathetic.
I will say one thing about this generation, they are quick
to argue for people not in the room or for people who dont
have the privilege of being in the room, she said.
One feature of the millennial platform and, one
could say, on the farthest ends of the national political
Claremont COURIER/Friday, September 1, 2017 5

landscape, is the perception that in academic life there
is a coordinated effort at indoctrination, which sometimes
results in rejection of anything organized. And in the
ferocity of todays political climate, finding common
ground between academics and society-at-large can some-
times seem futile.
It is true that there is a correlation between increas-
ing levels of education and discussion of how multi-cul-
tures are valued, or that expanding opportunity is better
than restricting and that access is a priority. These
language about cultures and access tend to be polar-
izing.
To foster the level of dialogue millennials crave, Ms.
Starr has initiated Open Hour, a program used during
her days at NYU, where college deans go beyond just
offering office hours but have regularly scheduled
times they sit in a room and allow students to stop in to
talk. Most millennials, she proposes, were raised talk-
ing in a manner that is limited by characters through so-
cial media.
Her goal is to not just get people talking but to get fac-
ulty and administrators to, literally and figuratively, be
where students are.
This generation will have seven or eight career
changes in their lifetime. We need to prepare students to
talk with people who are very different from themselves.
She hopes her reach will go beyond Pomona College,
an institution she says will certainly continue on its tra-
jectory as one of the nations leading liberal arts colleges.
The Colleges together are already a force for good
in the Inland Empire, she said. My goal is to stay con-
nected with the cities of Claremont and Pomona, because
this is our home.
Ms. Starr will be inaugurated on Saturday, October 14
at two public events: From 9 a.m. to noon, the public is
invited to a symposium. The inauguration ceremony will
take place at 3 p.m. at Bridges Auditorium, 450 N. Col-
lege Way, on the eastern edge of Marston Quad on the
Pomona College campus. The ceremony is open to the
public but ticketing is required.Visit pomona.edu/inau-

Small person, big memories
by Jan Wheatcroft
I
am a born and bred Angeleno. I lived
my first 10 years in Hollywood with
my mother. My father had moved to
New York and visited me a few times a
year when he came to Los Angeles on
business.
He stayed at the Beverly Hills Hotel and I loved to
visit him there and eat Monte Cristo sandwiches and
profiteroles covered in hot chocolate sauce. I am sure
I did other things, but thats what I remember looking
forward to.
During the war and just after my father would take
me to Pacific Ocean Park where we would ride The
Chute. We would climb into a small boat and get
hauled up to the top of the tower by a line or chain, turn
around in the tower and then be shot down the slide
ending with a huge splash in the water below. It was so
scary and exciting and something I would never do
now, but then I loved it. I recently heard that the ride
had been taken out as it was deemed as too dangerous.
The other special treat was to go to the Lucky Strike
booth where my father would pitch pennies in an at-
tempt to have them land on the Lucky Strike label of a
cigarette package. Then he would win bubble gum for
me. One couldnt buy bubble gum during the war and
I considered it a very delicious and valuable commodi-
ty. Since he didnt come to California very often, he
had to pitch a lot of pennies to keep me happy.
My grandparents on my mothers side also lived
near us and I spent a lot of time with them. They were
great and they were good to me, taking me on day
trips and on longer visits up north. When family visit-
ed them from New York, my grandparents liked to
take them to Forest Lawn Cemetery, Olivera Street or
to Knotts Berry Farm. I preferred the Knotts Berry
Farm trips. Knotts was smaller then, without a lot of
rides, and there was a bigger focus on the collection of
Fighting words
by Mellissa Martinez
L
ast week I tuned into the heavily-
promoted boxing match between
retired world champion Floyd
Mayweather and feisty, Irish mixed mar-
tial artist Conor McGregor. Although not a
boxing enthusiast, I was intrigued by the
odd pairing. Even so, I went into the expe-
rience expecting to peek between my fin-
gers and wince with every blow.
I was pleasantly surprised, however, by the style of
each athlete and, more importantly, by the an-
nouncers blow-by-blow description of the fight,
which revealed the true origin of many common id-
iomatic phrases. As he praised Mayweather for his
skillful bobbing and weaving, admired each athletes
ability to roll with the punches, and criticized McGre-
gor for hitting below the belt, I marveled at how many
times I had used these expressions without really con-
sidering where they came from.
Initially, descriptions of boxing predicaments and
conundrums were limited to the small group of spec-
tators who were able to view the matches. The emer-
gence of sports journalism in the early 1900s,
however, spread these sports-themed expressions to a
wider audience.
old western buildings and the Pioneer life. There was
an old privy with a man inside and when you got
near he called you by name and talked to you. It was a
long time before I learned that my grandfather told an
announcer my name. had been convinced that some-
how this person knew who I was.
After walking around and seeing the old western
life, we always ended up at the restaurant where we
ate copious amounts of crispy fried chicken, mashed
potatoes and biscuits with their special berry jam. I
was always glad when our New York relatives came to
visit and such a trip was planned.
Another treat with my grandparents was a visit to
Olivera Street. I once went for the blessing of the ani-
mals but most of the time it was to enjoy the small
shops along the center of the street and tucked into the
buildings on the sides. My favorite shops were the
glass blowing booth, where the man created delicate,
small animals by blowing through a tube and twisting
them into their shapes. I could watch for hours.
Another booth had tiny miniature creatures and pot-
tery. There were minuscule dishes perhaps for doll
houses. I begged and begged for some and my grand-
ma bought me a few pieces. I remember putting one
into my mouth and swallowing it and then felt so bad-
ly that it was gone. Another treat was the pair of
dressed fleas, also miniature of course, costumed as a
bride and groom. Those I kept for years absolutely
mystified at how small they were yet totally dressed
up.
LEX
IN THE
CITY
By the mid century, even non-fans were using box-
ing lingo; up against the ropes, in your corner, low
blow, lead with the chin, down for the count, and
saved by the bell took on linguistic lives of their own.
Knockout was first used in the late-1800s to de-
scribe a boxer who had been stunned by a blow for
longer than a 10-second count. The original longer
version was to knock out of time. Roughly a decade
later, the expression came to describe a beautiful per-
son. In other words, someones beauty is so powerful,
it stuns those who see it.
Later, in 1936, people began saying knock yourself
out to a person making a considerable effort (to the
point of exhaustion). This eventually morphed into a
more sarcastic (or dismissive) way to give permission
as if to say exhaust yourself for all I care (knock
yourself out!)
Claremont COURIER/Friday, September 1, 2017 6
In one of the buildings along the side there was a
candlemaker, where stone steps went down into a
basement shop. The candles were decorated with
carved flowers in many colors. The best one was the
birthday candle. It had 12 years written on it and on
my birthday we lit it and let it burn through the birth-
day year. We would then wrap it up and store it away
until the next birthday.
Although I can go on and on about places that were
special and probably no longer exist, I do remember
the best ice cream parlor called Wil Wrights. I think
there was one in Beverly Hills and one on the Sunset
Strip.
The shop was small and had white metal chairs and
small round marble tables with red, pink and white
stripes all around. However, it was the ice cream that
was special. It was very rich and creamy, so much so
that the cream stuck to the roof of ones mouth. There
were lovely flavors, fancy glass plates for the sundaes
and delicious cones.
When you ordered an ice cream in a glass plate you
got a macaroon wrapped in paper with an angel on it
and the words, Its Heavenly. It was very special.
My mother took me there for special treats or maybe
she liked to eat their ice cream, too. I know that they
are long gone now but when I think of growing up Wil
Wrights is the first thing to come to mind with their
stripy interior and special ice cream.
I was mostly a lonely child living in an adult-orient-
ed apartment building near Fairfax amongst kindly
grown-ups but there were no children in the neighbor-
hood. When we finally moved out to the San Fernando
Valley, we lived on a two-acre school with no children
around to play with. Family, books, art materials and
special places in Los Angeles formed the pattern of
my young life. They left me with rich memories of
special places.
Occasionally someone from a boxers corner will
admit defeat by tossing a towel into the center of the
ring. According to Oxford Dictionary, the practice of
throwing something into the ring to end a match goes
back at least to the mid-1800s, but the expression
throwing in the towel didnt become popular until the
following century. The opposite occurred in amateur
boxing when a hat was thrown into the ring. This was
a way for a member of the crowd to accept the chal-
lenge of a match. Nowadays its often politicians who
throw their hats in the ring to accept the challenge of
running for office.
There was one expression that was exuberantly
shouted at the end of the Mayweather-McGregor
match, which left a lot of people in a state of shock. A
smiling (yet defeated) McGregor shouted over the re-
porters at Mayweather I turned you into a Mexican
tonight. Did McGregor deliver a low blow to an en-
tire nation on live television? According to all avail-
able sources, the comment was intended as the exact
oppositea compliment.
According to one blogger, branding a fighter as a
Mexican is universally considered high praise. Mexi-
can boxers are apparently known for their rugged, ag-
gressive, no-nonsense tactics. And, clearly McGregor
is known for telling it like he sees it or, as some might
say, he doesnt pull any punches.

Mr. Ramos said his retirement would

The Garner LegacyBess Garner
by John Neiuber
I
t is fitting and appropriate that Bess
Adams Garner, who was called Mrs.
Claremont by many, was born in
1887, the year Claremont was founded.
As a child growing up in Pomona, Bess and her broth-
ers would ride their horses to play near the ruins of the
deserted Palomares adobe. That early encounter with his-
tory and the pioneer family that occupied the building
was an influence that would take on new meaning for
her later in life.
Her interest in local history that began as a child con-
tinued when, after her marriage to Herman Garner in
1912, she taught at the American School near Chino at
the Spanish speaking village of Prado. She said that the
experience was the inspiration for her study of the ear-
ly history of Southern California. Eventually, she
would become an authority on the subject.
While some may know of her involvement with The
Padua Hills Theatre, Bess Garners role in the political
life of the city is lesser known, specifically where it in-
volved youth. She served as an officer and president of
the Claremont Grammar School (Sycamore School) PTA
and was elected to the school board for eight years, serv-
ing as president during her tenure.
She was involved with The Claremont Church youth
program and served on Claremonts Post-War Planning
Committee, a body that had a profound effect on shap-
ing the future of the city after World War II. She was also
instrumental in establishing the first youth center in Me-
morial Park on the grounds of her former home.
When Bess and Herman Garner bought the orange
grove property where Memorial Park is today, it was to
serve as a home for their family of three boys. Eventu-
ally, it would also be a center for the Claremont Com-
munity Players, a residence for the female players from
the Padua Hills Theatre, a community and youth center,
city offices and the home of Claremont Heritage.
The Garner House, designed by Pasadena Architect
Arthur Munson, is a significant architectural work
done in the Spanish Colonial Revival style. However, the
home departs from what is typically Spanish Revival. This
is because Bess Garner had much input into the design
and she was harkening back to the influences of her youth.
Bess Garner called her house Californian rather than
Spanish Revival. That is because The Garner House is sim-
ilar to the Palomares Adobe in Pomona; the same adobe
where she played as a child and about which we wrote
in her book, Windows in an Old Adobe. She describes
the adobe, known in the Rancho days as the house of hos-
pitality as if she was describing her own house on In-
dian Hill that shares many of the same characteristics.
Bess devoted much time and effort to the cultural en-
hancement of Claremont and Southern California.
When the Claremont Community Players were in
search of a temporary home, she opened the doors of her
home for rehearsals. The players were looking for a per-
manent home and the construction of the Padua Hills The-
atre was financed by the Garners in 1930. Originally, a
group of young local men and women of Mexican de-
scent who came to Padua to work in the dining room
would sing during dinner.
Under Bess Garners direction they would perform in
the theatre on the dark nights of the Community Play-
ers. As the depression hit Claremont, the Community
Players dissolved and Ms. Garner took control of the sit-
uation so that the operation of the theatre would continue.
She became the writer and director of Mexican folk dra-
mas. The theatre became known throughout Southern Cal-
ifornia for its Mexican Players.
After the local people had been performing for some
time, new talent was brought from Mexico to teach the
local performers the authentic music and dance from dif-
ferent regions of Mexico. As Ms. Garner delved more and
more into Mexican culture, came many trips to Mexico.
She wrote dozens of articles for The COURIER and
Pomona Progress Bulletin about her trips. In 1937, she
traveled 15,000 miles in Mexico and Guatemala search-
ing for authentic native costumes, dances, folk dramas
and talent. Her travels resulted in her first book, Mexi-
co Notes in the Margin, published in 1937, which was
a compilation of her newspaper articles.
She then returned to her roots and for two years led
an initiative urging awareness of Pomona Valley pioneers
and restoration of the Palomares Adobe. She wrote ar-
ticles and used oral histories, interviews, retold legends
and photographs to tell the stories of the people who lived
and visited The Palomares Adobe on The San Jose Ran-
cho. She published her second book, Windows in an Old
Adobe, in 1939 that helped to bring awareness to raise
the funds restore the adobe. In April of 1940, not only
did Ms. Garner preside at the dedication of the restored
adobe, she wrote a pageant for the occasion, Children of

the Rancho.
During World War II, Bess responded to the needs of
the era. She became active in the Red Cross and helped
organize the Grey Ladies to meet the needs of service-
men being staged at the LA County Fairgrounds. When
the Garner House and property were sold to the city in
1946 for a park, the couple divorced and Ms. Garner left
the Padua Hills Theatre. She continued her service to
Claremont youth, The Claremont Church and her trav-
els to Mexico.
In 1950, when she had a respite from her bout with can-
cer, she spent three months in Mexico before she died in
1951.The Claremont COURIER said it best after her death:
The term community service finds its fullest defi-
nition in the life of Bess Garner. There is hardly a field
of community activity in which she was not identified.
It is not possible to measure the part Mrs. Garner has
played in important things. And through it all she re-
mained the same lovable, understanding person often
working far beyond her strength spurred by a devotion
which characterized her concept of values.

Minister, civil rights, peace activist, grandfather
Rhodes Thompson Jr. died August 13 at
Pilgrim Place retirement community in
Claremont, where he resided for 23 years
with his wife of 65 years, Lois Long
Thompson. He was 89.
Though Mr. Thompson had suffered
from Alzheimers disease in recent years,
those who knew him in better days re-
member him for his ebullient personality,
boundless enthusiasm and deep concern for
those throughout the world who were less
fortunate, his family shared.
A retired Christian Church (Disciples of
Christ) minister and lifelong civil rights and
peace activist, he was one of the leaders of
a group that for years has held a weekly vig-
il every Friday afternoon at the corner of
Indian Hill Blvd. and Arrow Highway in
Claremont, to protest the wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
Mr. Thompson was born in Barbourville,
Kentucky on June 28, 1928. He met Lois
when both were students at Texas Chris-

guage was Chinese. The youngest of five
children, her family returned to the US in
1928 when she was 2 years old.She grew
up in Oak Park, Illinois.
Her mother earned a college degree,
eventually becoming a physician at a
time when very few women went to med-
ical school.Her father was the first in his
family to go to college, and was also a
physician.
Mrs. Faust received her bachelors de-
gree in psychology from Pomona College
in Claremont. She then went on to earn her
PhD from Stanford University, where in
1950 she met and married William Lang-
don (Don) Faust, who was also pursu-
ing a PhD. The couple enjoyed spending
summers at the Faust cabin at Shaver Lake,
California, where they were among the first
to water ski. They also enjoyed traveling,
including spending a semester in Suzhou,
China teaching at the Suzhou Railway
Teachers College, where they made many
lifelong friends. The couple had three
daughters, Katie, Ann and Marion, and
were married for 64 years, until Mr.
Fausts death in 2014.

two years for the American Friends Serv-
ice Committee in the southwest, in Mex-
ico, and in Germany doing post-war hous-
ing note cards, which she donated to the gift

she lived for more than 20 years.
Mrs. Faust was a professor of psychol-
ogy at Claremonts Scripps College from
1958 until her 1991 retirement. During her
Scripps career she also stepped in as dean

Kentucky. He went on to serve as pastor of
Disciples of Christ churches outside of
Paris, Kentucky, the town where he grew
up; in Daytona Beach, Florida; Little
Rock, Arkansas; St. Louis, Missouri; and
Los Angeles.
He and Ms. Thompson also spent four
years serving as missionaries in Kobe,
Japan from 1966 to 1970. For the decade
of the 1980s, he was on the faculty of
Phillips Theological Seminary in Enid,

Francis Frank Carroll OBITUARIES

Great-grandfather, MIT grad, Naval officer, engineer, civil servant, volunteer

Longtime Claremont resident Francis Frank Carroll
died on August 18 at the age of 93.
He was born March 3, 1924, in Norwood, Massachu-
setts to Francis Martin Carroll and the former Irene Eliz-
abeth Dunn of Norwood. The young Mr. Carroll was a sen-
ior in high school on December 7, 1941 when the
Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, propelling the United States
into World War II. He volunteered for the Army Air Corps
but chose instead to attend The Massachusetts Institute of
Technology in Cambridge, Massachusetts under an offi-
cer-commissioning program.
Mr. Carroll graduated from MIT in 1945 with a bach-
elors degree in aeronautical engineering. He then began

Film, anim fan launches career as costume designer

tume during the Her Universe Fashion Show last
month in San Diego. COURIER photo/Steven Felschundneff
Claremont resident Rose Ivy Wallace won the judges award at the Her Universe Fashion Show last month
at Comic Con in San Diego. Ms. Wallace, 26, spent 10 weeks making the costume based on the character

R
ose Ivy Wallace dressed up for her
first comic convention, Los Ange-
les Comikaze in 2011, as a char-
acter from the Zack Snyder action film
Sucker Punch. From then on, she was
hooked.
Six years later, the Claremont native, 26, was the
co-winner of the judges award at the Her Universe
Fashion Show at San Diego Comic Con on July 20.
Ms. Wallace stunned the audience with her home-
made outfit inspired by the Marvel superhero Doctor
Strange.
Ms. Wallace, who works at Cut-Sew-Stitch on
Foothill Boulevard, was ecstatic about her win.
I would say I was definitely caught off guard.
There was such a great and strong competition this
year, she said. I was flabbergasted, honestly.
Ms. Wallaces take on Stephen Strange, the hotshot
surgeon-turned-sorcerer most recently played by
Benedict Cumberbatch, was borne from watching the
film in 2015. Her years of sewing expertise have
given her an analytical eye when she watches a film.
Im always watching movies for the costumes,
she said. Im also here for the plot, but costumes are
Doctor Strange.
my number one jam. So when I saw his costume I
thought, Oh my gosh, gorgeous.
Ms. Wallace entered the Her Universe Fashion
Show before, but hadnt won top prize. The show,
created by actress Ashley Eckstein, is a showcase of
women who have talent in costume design.
Ms. Wallace had three months to make the cos-
tume. She spent that time using natural-colored fab-
rics, dying them in the colors she wanted and piecing
them together. Her costume also featured laser-cut
bracelets on both wrists that were used to represent
Doctor Stranges magical spells.
It was quite a laborious process, she noted, but
she was happy with the final design.
The judges at the fashion show agreed. She was co-
winner of the jury prize, along with her friend Lind-
say Orndorffwho dressed up as the character San claimed.
from the classic Japanese anime Princess
Mononoke.
While the 2011 Comikaze was the first convention
she attended while dressing up, it was next years
event that fully cemented her love for cosplay. Cos-
play, which is shorthand for costume play, involves
fans creating and wearing costumes of their favorite
characters.
In 2012, Ms. Wallace dressed up as the title charac-
ter from the comic Lady Mechanika by Joe Benitez.
Lady Mechanika is a prime example of the Steam-
punk genrean eye-popping blend of Victorian aes-
thetic, science fiction and fantasy. Think the Will
Smith film Wild Wild West, but with a better plot.
[Lady Mechanika] is a heroine from Victorian
London, and she solves supernatural mysteries and
stuff like that, Ms. Wallace said. Shes gorgeous,
and shes badass.
Ms. Wallace noted she was the first cosplayer to
dress up as Lady Mechanika. She also got to meet Mr.
Benitez and won the cosplay contest at the event.
I was like, this is my second year making stuff,
and you thought I was good enough to win! she ex-
But her favorite character also shares part of her
namethe classic Batman villain Poison Ivy. For that
costume, Ms. Wallace was covered in green body
paint, which took two separate artists five hours to
complete.
Ive always liked who she is as a character, Ms.

Wallace said. Shes always portrayed as very beauti-
ful, but shes a doctor, shes a PhD, shes a scientist
and shes a smart lady who cares about the environ-
ment. She uses her wits and her sensuality to take
care of the planet, sometimes at the expense of men.
In addition to the accolades, the grand prize for
winning the Her Universe Fashion Show is an oppor-
tunity to work with Disney and Hot Topic on the Her
Universe fashion line, to be sold in Hot Topic stores
throughout the country. The theme this year is Dis-
ney princesses.
Ms. Wallace has been going to meetings at Disney
and Hot Topic in the last few weeks to discuss her
ideas, about which she has kept mum.
Its very intimidating but also very exciting, she
said. This will be our first meeting, I have some
ideas of my own but I want to see where they want to
go with everything.
Her day job at Cut-Sew-Stitch also gives her an op-
portunity to perfect her creations. She has been work-
ing at the Claremont sewing shop for almost three
years, teaching classes and designing clothes. The
shop is debuting a yoga line this fall.

love, you never work a day in your life, and thats

However, if Claremont fans were hop-

playbook out of the Highlander war room,
they will be disappointed.

ways have. We are going to play our butts

TRUSTEE'S SALE NOTICE TO POTENTIAL
BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this prop-
erty lien, you should understand that there are risks in-
volved 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 en-
couraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of
outstanding liens that may exist on this property by con-
tacting 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. NO-
TICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date
shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or
more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a
court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil
Code. The law requires that information about trustee
sale postponements be made available to you and to the
public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If
you wish to learn whether your sale date has been post-
poned, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date
for the sale of this property, you may call (866)-960-

that are very short in duration or that occur close in time

Deed of Trust has executed and delivered to the

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 pay-
ing off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned
off, before you can receive clear title to the prop-
erty. You are encouraged to investigate the ex-
istence, 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. 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 postpone-
ments be made available to you and to the pub-
lic, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale.
If you wish to learn whether your sale date has

low the personal representative to take many

fore taking certain very important actions, how-
ever, the personal representative will be required
to give notice to interested persons unless they
have waived notice or consented to the proposed

tion, 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 appoint-
ed by the court within the later of either (1) four
months from the date of first issuance of let-
ters to a general personal representative, as de-
fined 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 au-
thority 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 Re-
quest for Special Notice (form DE-154) of the
filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate as-
sets or of any petition or account as provided
in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for
Special Notice form is available from the court

90016 A.P.N.: 5043-006-012 The undersigned
Trustee disclaims any liability for any incor-
rectness of the street address or other common
designation, if any, shown above. The sale will
be made, but without covenant or warranty, ex-
pressed or implied, regarding title, possession,
or encumbrances, to pay the remaining prin-
cipal sum of the note(s) secured by the Deed
of Trust with interest thereon, as provided in said
note(s), advances, under the terms of said Deed
of Trust, fees, charges and expenses of the
Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed
of Trust. The total amount of the unpaid bal-
ance of the obligation secured by the proper-
ty to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, ex-
penses and advances at the time of the initial
publication of the Notice of Sale is: $
953,817.94. Note: Because the Beneficiary re-
serves the right to bid less than the total debt
owed, it is possible that at the time of the sale
the opening bid may be less than the total debt.
If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any
reason, the successful bidders sole and ex-
clusive remedy shall be the return of monies
paid to the Trustee, and the successful bid-
der shall have no further recourse. The ben-
eficiary of the Deed of Trust has executed and
delivered to the undersigned a written request
to commence foreclosure, and the under-
signed caused a Notice of Default and Election
to Sell to be recorded in the county where the
real property is located. NOTICE OF
TRUSTEE'S SALE NOTICE TO PO-
TENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are consider-
ing bidding on this property lien, you should
understand that there are risks involved in bid-
ding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding
on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the
highest bid at a trustee auction does not auto-
matically entitle you to free and clear owner-
ship of the property. You should also be aware
that the lien being auctioned off may be a jun-
ior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auc-
tion, 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 prop-
erty. You are encouraged to investigate the ex-
istence, 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
