Local Veterans of “The Forgotten War” visit Korea
Jerry Bernstein “This year marks the 60th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War. Nearly 1.8 million American men and women in uniform fought for the freedom of a country that they never knew and to protect the lives of a people they never met. Their outstanding courage and selfless sacrifice allowed us to defend our freedom, attain peace, and become a democratic, free and open society.” Lee Myung-Bak President of the Republic of Korea

Cerritos College Trustees discuss budget cuts
La Palma celebrates thirty years of fitness in Run for Fun

The Cerritos College Board of Trustees held its monthly meeting June 23, and discussed additional budget cuts enacted by California state legislation that resulted in an increase in the college’s financial and budgetary difficulties. David El Fallal, VP of Business Services, reported the current budgetary situation faced by Cerritos College. He said in a spiraling downtrend plaguing many local and state school districts, California state legislation continues to postpone their budget plan to deal with a state shortage of 13.1 billion dollars. The total budgetary deference of funds expected from the state has been estimated to have been $15, 233, 873. As a result, proposed cuts and propositions to withhold educational funds have eroded Cerritos College programs, notably

The California Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division Eight, issued a court document known as a “remittitur” on June 22, 2010, which declares as final the lawsuit that challenged an affordable senior housing project in the City. The decision of the Court of Appeal is legally binding, and the case is no longer capable of being appealed to or reviewed by the California Supreme Court. The Court of Appeal affirmed the trial court's validation of the Cerritos Redevelopment Agency, ABC Unified School District, and Cuesta Villas Housing Corporation's “Affordable Housing, Financing, and Disposition and Development Agreement.” Under the project agreement, ABC Unified School District (District) will lease surplus property located at 16700 Norwalk Boulevard, the current site of the District's administrative offices, to the Cerritos Redevelopment Agency (Agency). The Agency will then assign its rights to the ground lease to Cuesta

On June 21 thirty-nine Korean War veterans from Cerritos and surrounding communities and members of their families boarded an Asian Airline 747 for a visit to the Republic of Korea [ROK] in observance of the 60th Anniversary of the Korean War. Not only did they fight the North Koreans (who invaded South Korea on June 25, 1950) but later the Chinese who rescued the Northern Koreans from defeat and in retrospect aborted the unification of the country, Many of those abroad were taken
prisoner by the North Koreans in the ensuing fighting that followed the invasion, some for three long years. The flight took approximately 13 hours, landing at the Incheon International Airport outside of the ROK capital of Seoul at 6:10 p.m. Korean time. As we entered the terminal we were surprised by a welcoming reception from the Sae Eden Presbyterian Church, sponsor of the trip, with welcoming signs that read “Thank you for defending our country.” Everyone was presented with flower wreaths. In addition a crew of Korean photographers took the first of many photos. We arrived at the Marriott Hotel in Seoul at 8:30 p.m. where we were treated to a banquet and which was to be our home for the next six days. Wake up call for us was 6 a.m. We were told we should finish our breakfast by 8 a.m. and be ready to board our buses by 9 a.m. We all agreed the accommodations afforded us at the hotel were excellent. No complaints. The first morning included a visit to the National Cemetery where we were to lay a memorial wreath for the unknown soldiers who fought in the war. We were

By Daniel Newhauser One vote from the other side of the aisle hardly makes a bill bipartisan. Similarly, one female player in a group of men hardly makes a baseball game coed. Still, while men will again dominate the 49th Annual Roll Call Congressional Baseball Game, the women of Congress can take solace in the fact that their most tenured player is back representing them on the field. Rep. Linda Sánchez will resume playing in her signature No. IX jersey that she wears in honor of Title IX legislation, which she said “helped propel women’s sports.” The California lawmaker had played every year since 2004, but she had to watch from the stands last year as her
fellow Democrats broke an eight-year losing streak, winning 15-10 to steal the coveted Roll Call trophy. “The game was just a few weeks after I gave birth, and I wasn’t in fighting shape,” she said. “They tell you to take it easy for four to six weeks.” Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen held down the fort, representing the women of Congress while Sánchez sat out. But the Florida Republican has opted to drop baseball in favor of a more female-friendly sport this season. “The bipartisan women’s softball game took off, and I started going to the practices, which were fun. So I’m sticking with softball,” Ros-Lehtinen said. “There is no crying in baseball, so I had to opt out.” Sánchez said it’s unfortunate that [See SANCHEZ Page 15]

Anna Titus celebrates retirement from ABC Adult School with family and friends More than170 elected officials, administrators, friends, co-workers, outof-town guests and family joined ABC Adult School Educational Services Office Manager Anna Titus June 27 for her retirement celebration at the Sheraton Cerritos Hotel as she began preparing for the next chapter of her life. Titus was employed at the ABC Unified School District for over 29 years, spending her last 15 at the Adult School where she was in charge of all public relations and advertising. She began her career as a substitute working in almost every school in the district before coming to the administrative office where she worked with Dr. Helen Fried, Director of Educational Services/ Staff Development. She credited Dr. Fried with inspiring her and serving as a role model during her 5 years in the department. She served on several committees including: First School Closure Committee, Whitney Entrance Criteria Committee, School Site Council at three schools (where her daughters attended); PTA, PTO, and Boosters, and is currently chairperson of the District Closing the Achievement Gap Committee. She has also served as President of the California Council for Adult Education (CCAE), site representative for CSEA at the Adult School, and has a Vocational Credential to teach at the adult school level. This busy lady is also active in her community having served on the City of Cerritos Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Celebration, a candidate for Cerritos City Council in 2007, an active member of the Artesia-Cerritos Woman's Club, and an alumnae member of the Orange County Links, Inc., a national/international service organization for professional women. Asked what she plans to do with her time as she enters the next chapter of her life, Titus said, "I would like to continue giving back to my community through volunteering and service." Since retiring she has joined the Cerritos Chamber of Commerce as a community member, an organization she worked closely with as a representative of the Adult School. She is the wife of LeRoy Titus, and the mother of three successful children: Shelley Price of Sugarland, Texas (Bobby); Sherre Titus of La Habra, and Shelbi Walker (Byron) of Signal Hills. Titus said she is the proud grandmother of four beautiful grandchildren: Mecca and Sean Price and Bethany and Olivia Walker. She summed up the evening with the thought, “You must always give your best because you don't know whom you might be a role model and encouragement to.” Her greatest joy came when someone, whom she did not know, said he was who he was because of her examples. Titus received numerous awards from local elected officials including the Office of Supervisor Don Knabe, Cerritos City Council and the ABC Unified School Board. ABC Deputy Superintendent Mary Sieu said it had been a delight to work closely with Titus through the years. “Anna always reminded us to not forget the voices in the District who are not always heard, and she was a special friend to those who were underrepresented in the District.” ABC School Board President Celia Spitzer said, “Anna Titus unselfishly dedicated her life to the service of others, and she will be missed.”
Anna and Leroy Titus make a toast at her Retirement Celebration for 29 years of service with the ABC School District.
ABC Adult School Principal Pao Ling Gao wished Anna Titus much happiness in her retirement after 29 years of service with ABC School District.

Bronze Award to recipients’ Aloha, Burbank, Kennedy, and Niemes elementary schools. Those present to accept the prestigious achievement were Niemes’ Network for a Healthy California coordinator Dipa Shah and teacher Lora Ballard, Burbank principal Beth Bray, Aloha principal Julie Yabumoto, and Kennedy principal Melissa Valentine. All five elementary schools exercised exemplary school policies that promote better eating habits And physical education to their respective student bodies in order to ensure a healthier future lifestyle. The district’s satisfactory performance of elementary school level education also won the attention of KV
Mart Foundation, where representatives of the foundation donated a check for $25,000 to Furgeson elementary school. The check, approved by Phil Gentile, Alex Gutierrez and Liana Macias of KV Mart Foundation, were presented to the very grateful and honored Furgeson principal, Mayra Lozano. Another noted contribution was supplemented by Rutgers University, having approved a scholarship program for Fedde middle school. The scholarship program is intended as an aid to all students that demonstrate an intent and effort for the future enrollment to an Ivy League School. The scholarship program is also concurrent with other tentative special programs to be added for further aid to young Ivy League bound students. The 2009-2010 school performance reports were quite positive for the district, with high schools in the district reporting a significant increase in English and Mathematics of about 62 and 47 percent respectively. Adding to this already impressive record, the performance report lists that all district high schools reflect a 97.2 percent California Exit Exam pass rate. Finally, the district’s Academic Performance Index (API) average score for 2009 was 812, 12 points above the projected minimum. Public survey results for schools within the district were generally positive, though specific concerns were raised by Gahr High School. As reported by Gahr High School representatives Evan Machado and Simone Evangelista, primary concerns from the student body were in regards to school safety. Machado and Evangelista also reported that the student body does not approve the technological aptitude of their teachers, even going as far casting doubt on the competence of some.

Cerritos Sheriff ’s Station Weekly Crime Summary
June 28 to July 4, 2010 There were thirty-three Part I felony crimes reported to the Cerritos Sheriff’s Station last week, up from twenty the week before. All of the crimes reported in this summary increased with the exception of commercial burglaries, which remained the same. 308 calls for service were handled by patrol personnel, up from 296. There were 296 calls for service, down by one from the week before. The 2010 weekly average in calls for service is now 300. Three robberies were investigated. On Monday June 28 at 11:05 p.m. a male was on a pay phone in the 16700 block of Norwalk Boulevard when a male suspect approached and demanded his property. The victim jumped on his bike and fled with the suspect chasing on foot. When the victim was able to get to a safer location, Cerritos Sheriff’s deputies were summoned and arrested the suspect nearby. A male suspect grabbed deposits from an employee of a local business on Saturday July 3 at 11:30 a.m. in the lot at Norwalk Boulevard and Artesia Boulevard and fled. At 10:56 p.m. that same evening, two males attempted to rob a retail store in the Towne Center but ran away before they could complete the crime. After three consecutive weeks of no reported residential burglaries, three were logged last week. An open window and an unlocked door allowed entry in two cases, and a rear sliding door was pried open in the third. Cash, laptop computers, credit cards, checkbooks, and electronic games were stolen. The current 2010 weekly average in residen-
tial burglaries is 2.0. When thieves pry sliding glass doors and windows, they depend on any vertical movement to force the door or window from the tracks. Make sure that you have installed hardware to restrict this movement. There were two commercial burglaries logged for this reporting period, the same as the week before. A closed liquor store, where cash, cigarettes, and cases of liquor were taken, and a storage unit where a motorcycle was taken were targeted. The 2010 weekly average in commercial burglaries is 2.7. There were nine vehicle burglaries investigated compared to five the week before. High-volume commercial parking lots were the crime scenes in all nine last week. Five of the vehicles were SUVs. Two victims reported GPS units taken, and two others claimed stereo components as the loss. Other items removed from vehicles consisted of cameras, cash, tools, purses, and a stair climber. The new 2010 weekly average in vehicle burglaries is now 6.6. Vehicle thefts increased by four crimes last week after nine were reported. High-volume commercial parking lots were the crime scenes in only four. Three incidents involved SUVs, one a Toyota, a BMW, a Pontiac, and a Nissan. One was a commercial truck. The 2010 weekly average in vehicle thefts is now 4.7. ANY form of an anti-theft device is better than nothing at all. A wide range exists from simple steering wheel locks to global positioning satellite tracking (GPS). Steering wheel locking devices can cost as little as $30.00 and are a visual deterrent. Use of these devices tells the would-be thief to find an easier target.

By Loren Kopff DOWNEY-The Cerritos Girls Softball Association’s 12-Under AllStar team, the Legacy, was primed to win the Amateur Softball Association Los Angeles/South Bay ‘B’ District Championship. But host Downey’s gold team, still stinging from a quarterfinal loss on June 26, was not ready to taste another defeat on its home turf at Independence Park. Cerritos and Downey faced each other in the championship game on June 27 with Cerritos needing one win to take home its fourth championship of the summer. But Downey posted a pair of wins, 4-2 and 10-2, leaving the Legacy taking home the runner-up plaque instead of a championship banner. Still, the Legacy qualified for the ASA ‘B’ All-Star State Tournament to be held in Lancaster beginning today and running through Sunday. “Of course I’m disappointed but at the same time, I’m very happy too,” said manager Jay Becdach. “It was tough getting to this point in the first place and my girls made me real
The Cerritos 12-Under Legacy All-Star team qualified for the Amateur Softball Association 'B' State Tournament after finishing in second place in the Los Angeles/South Bay District Championships. The players are: Kaitlyn Bales, Rachel Barajas, Alexa Becdach, Kylee Brown, Megan Darling, Alyssa Flores, Deidra Genera, Tyler Johnson, Victoria Maglonzo, Ashley Mitchell, Erika Romero and Nicole Waldecker. The manager is Jay Becdach and his coaches are Dave Bales, Nick Brown and Bill Mitchell. der All-Star team will be representing the city.

launched a home run to left field in the top of the first and in the next inning, left fielder Victoria Maglonzo singled to bring in first baseman Rachel Barajas, who had deposited a one-out base hit to right field. The Cerritos defense was not to be overlooked in the early innings either. Third baseman Erika Romero made three outstanding diving plays to take away sure base hits from a hot-hitting Downey team. But in the bottom of the fourth, Downey tied the game and took the lead in the sixth with two more runs. Pitcher Deidra Genera was economical in her pitch count, throwing 64 in six innings, but that came hours after throwing 109 in six innings against Torrance. As a result, the ace pitcher could not go in the second Downey contest. “She’s my M.V.P.,” Becdach said. “She hung tough and she sucked it up. She wanted to keep going, keep battling; she didn’t want to stop. At the end of the game is when she got tired and that’s when she got affected by the heat.” Once again, Cerritos got on the board first in the clinching game when Maglonzo drove in right fielder Kaitlyn Bales in the top of the second and Romero scored on a single from third baseman Tyler Johnson in the next inning. But her hit would be the fourth and final one of the contest as Downey touched home plate seven times in the bottom of the fourth and twice more in the fifth. Cerritos also hurt itself with four errors as three of the 10 runs were earned. “We showed up to beat Downey and the girls battled,” Becdach said. “That’s why it was bittersweet. Once our main pitcher went out, I noticed some faces that were down.” [See 12U Page 14]

Continued from page 8 The Legacy began the tournament on June 25 with a convincing 10-0 win against El Segundo as Genera threw a one-hitter and struck out half a dozen batters. Cerritos blew the game wide open with five runs in the bottom of the third highlighted by a two-run single from Genera. In the next inning, Johnson singled and scored on Ashley Mitchell’s home run. Bales and designated player Nicole Waldecker would drive in Genera (single) and Barajas (fielder’s choice) following the home run. Genera, Romero and catcher Megan DarlingYourCity all had a pair of hits. Cerritos TVwould then post an 11-5 victory against Manhattan Beach the

next morning as Alexa Becdach and Genera each went two for three, Bales hit a home run and Johnson scored three runs. But what turned out to be a prelude to the eventual championship game came later in the day as Cerritos outlasted Downey 9-6 in a seven-inning affair that used the international tiebreaker rules. Cerritos scored twice in the top of the first inning as Brown posted a twoout single followed by a home run from Johnson. While Downey always fought back, it wasn’t able to tie the game until the bottom of the fifth when 5’11” Whitney Pemberton beat out an infield single and later scored on a fielder’s choice from Sydney Romero. But in the top of the seventh and Maglonzo standing on second, she advanced on a groundout from Waldecker. Romero and Darling would each be safe on a fielder’s choice, setting the stage for Brown who smacked a grand slam over the left fielder on a 1-2 count. Brown and Johnson, respectively nicknamed thunder and lightning, combined to go four for eight with seven RBI and three runs scored. Waldecker also had a pair of hits. “That’s our biggest competition thus far,” Jay Becdach said. “I love their players, I love their coaches. We all get along really great. They’re a class act team. They feel the same about us; they’ve told us several times. I’m never tired of playing Downey or Torrance. We both bring out the best in each other. I’m hoping between Downey and ourselves we can represent our district and hopefully both us go to nationals and make some noise.” On the morning of June 27, Cerritos sent Torrance into the loser’s bracket

with a 7-2 semifinal victory. Johnson doubled in Darling and Brown in the top of the first and put the game away two innings later when Brown, Johnson and Alyssa Flores all scored. Flores added her second RBI in the next inning when her single plated Brown. The last run came in the sixth when Romero scored on a ground rule double from Brown, who was denied another home run when the umpires called spectator interference. Brown went three for three while Johnson drove in three runs. The Legacy will take an 18-5 record into the state tournament and have won three of five tournaments, going undefeated in all three. Heading into day two the tournament, it seemed as if the Legacy wouldn’t be the only Cerritos team advancing to Lancaster. The other three all-star teams won their first game, marking just the second time in the CGSA’s history that every team won its first district game. However, the 8’s, 10’s and 14’s all lost their next two contests with the 10’s and 14’s each needing just one victory from action on June 26 to qualify for the state tournament. On June 25, the 8-Under All-Stars smashed San Pedro 14-0 but then fell to La Mirada 11-5 and Downey 8-7 the next day. The team finishes the summer at 14-5-2. The 8-Under All-Stars are: Jordan Bennett, Kayla Edwards, Malena Ray Garcia, Taylor Genera, Jazmine Hill, Kylie Matthews, Dalia Morones, Kassidy Ourique, Cassie Perryman, Miranda Ponce, Diamond Sandoval, Kara Spoolstra and Leah Suarez. The manager is Lori Williams and her coaches are Cedric Hill, Adele Perryman and Adrian Ponce.

COMMUNITY SPORTS The 10-Under All-Stars edged Paramount 2-1 before falling to Torrance 8-0 and to Downey’s gold team 5-4. Against Paramount, pitcher Ashley Iseri led off the top of the fourth inning with a single and later scored on a bloop single to center from right fielder Madison Huskey. Following a wild pitch and a stolen base, Huskey would score on the second wild pitch of the inning. Iseri went the distance scattering three hits and striking out seven. The Cerritos Intensity was held to three hits in its first loss, then facing elimination against Downey, the Intensity gave up the winning run in the bottom of the sixth. Cerritos had a 2-0 lead, then rallied to tie the game in the top of the fifth when center fielder Dejanae Page singled, stole second and scored on Iseri’s base hit. Page went two for two and scored three runs. Alyssa Medina, who also singled in the inning, scored the tying run on an error. “We started off good in the first inning, then the wheels fell off the bus after that,” said manager Chris Borza of the Downey game. “With a good hitting team and a good team as Torrance is, once you get behind, it’s hard to come back. It just wasn’t meant to be.” The 10-Under All-Stars were the only CGSA team to have advanced to the championship game in every tournament prior to the District Tournament and wraps up the summer at 15-8. The remaining members are: Celeste Borza, Evelynn Hernandez, Katelynn Hernandez, Destiny Lucero, Jennifer Morinishi, Kylee Perryman, Alyssa Rios and Kayla Vukovich. The coaches are Rene Hernandez, Carlos Lucero, Jon Morinishi, Lyn Perryman and Don Taguchi. “We knew we had a good team
when we [began all-stars],” Chris Borza said. “We knew we had good pitching, we had good fielding and we had good hitting. Each week the girls got better and better and played better teams.” Finally, the 14-Under All-Stars, a.k.a. the Elite, blasted North Torrance 12-0 but ran into a buzz saw against Paramount in a 5-0 setback. A dozen Elite batters struck out 12 times, managed just three singles and did not have a runner reach third base. “We just did the best we could,” said manager Jesse Carrasco. “All of the girls know [the Paramount pitcher] and I think…they got a little bit scared. But it’s [coach] George [Molina] and my job to put the positive spin on everything. I always tell these guys that we have to stay positive.” Cerritos would get three hits again in a 9-0 loss to Downey. The team finishes the summer with a 7-8-2 record. The Elite all-stars are: Bobbie Amezcua, Stephanie Carrasco, Emily Dollete, Lauren Dollete, Rachel Fitterer, Mikayla Galindo, Elayna Henriquez, Courtney Hess, Kanesha Holiman, Alyssa Medina, Charlene Pedroza and Melissa Rios. “It’s very frustrating,” Jesse Carrasco said. “We just don’t know who is going to show up sometimes. We rode [pitcher] Alyssa [Medina] as far as we could. She did all of our pitching for us and I think she just ran out of gas. She sets the pace.”

Sánchez said her recovery took longer than usual because she had a cesarean section, but she insisted she’s back and better than ever and ready to sub in at her old pinch-hitter position. “I’ve been attending as many practices as I can,” she said. “And my new workout regimen contains lifting and chasing a very heavy 25-pound boy around the house.” Sánchez said she probably won’t do any fielding but hopes to help her team to victory by driving in some solid base hits. “I’ve been doing really well with my hitting. The hitting is sort of my strong suit,” she said. “I can get the balls into the gaps and get on base.” Nevertheless, Sánchez aspires to expand her playing time. “The sad truth is that because so

Champion athlete holds on to his dreams FREE ATES! ESTIM

Growing up in Wyoming and liking sports was a challenge for NCAA (National Collegiate Athletic Association) and SEC (Southeastern Conference) Champion Dave Denniston. “There
SEC (Southeastern Conference) Champion Dave Denniston weren’t any good local sports teams to watch, so I watched a lot of television and fell in love with Michael Jordan.” Denniston shared his life story with students May 26 at a school assembly at Walker Junior High in La Palma where he encouraged them to “not let go of the dreams you have.” His dreams were to become a world-class athlete and make lots of money—just like Michael Jordan.
“Quality Service at Affordable Rates!”
“I wanted to own everything that had the Jordan logo including a pair of $140 Michael Jordan shoes.” His mother said no and he settled for a pair bought at the local PayLess store. His dream was to become an Olympic swimmer like Michael Phelps. Unfortunately, he never made the cut. “I have met him, though, and I can still beat him—in Scrabble.” Even so, he was good enough to be a USA National Team swimmer and was asked by Nike to advertise their products—including wearing a pair of Nike shoes. His dream seemed to be coming true. Unfortunately, his dream came to an end on that fateful day in 2005 when a sledding accident in Wyoming paralyzed him from the waist down. “I was speeding 50-60 mph down a hill when I lost control and hit a tree. I started coughing up blood and I had no feeling in my legs. I had broken my back.” Since then, he has established himself as a leading Ambassador for disabled sports in the United States. “The accident was the best thing that could have happened to me because I learned a lot about myself. I learned that our bodies are not really that strong after all and yet we are the dominant species on earth.” He realized that it’s our minds that distinguish us from the other species. “There are two groups of people in this world—the people who sit in a corner and cry why me, and the other group made up of people who understand that
any obstacle is part of life, and they’ll get through it. It’s all about having an amazing attitude.” Winner of the 2007 NCAA Inspiration Award and the 2009 Christopher and Dana Reeves Inspiration Award, he has had his story covered by NBC, Sports Illustrated and the Denver Post. In 2008 he was the Captain for the U.S. Paralympic swim team in Beijing. Now, he lives in Colorado Springs where he is an athlete/coach for its paralympic swim team. He is a seven-time SEC Champion and a 15-time NCAA AllAmerican. He received a communications degree from Auburn University, and now he is a renowned inspirational speaker who puts his degree to use as he shares his story across the country. When he’s not in the pool, Denniston is an active community leader, supporting both at-risk and disabled youth through a number of different charities and events including Relay Across America, the AT&T Foundation and the Fitter & Faster Tour. “My ultimate goal remains to bring positive attention to the disabled athletes who receive so little renown and opportunity in return for their hard work and dedication.” Denniston reminded the students that they should not wait for an accident to start appreciating life. “Keep your chest high and your chin up and remember that it’s your character that defines who you are.”

The fall semester class enrollment fee has now been raised from $26 per unit to a significant increase of $40 per unit in order to meet with the tentative 20102011 budget. The intended budgetary plan for Cerritos College expenditure for 2010-2011 will be approximately $10,800,000, which is approximately $785,566 less than 2009-2010’s budget of $11,585,566. On a more optimistic note, Felipe Grimaldo, student board member, accepted an award and $500 scholarship for outstanding student leadership. Following suit, senior typist clerk Kristen Towhid was proudly awarded Employee of the Month for the month of May for demonstrating efficient and courteous behavior beyond expectations. The board also recognized the [RUN con't from page 1] water, community members have contributed and volunteered 15,000 hours, and 2,500 awards have been earned.

retirement of Professor of Mathematics Lorraine Edson-Perone, a remarkable professor who served 17 years of tenure. Edson-Perone was responsible for founding many math and math career programs, as well as coordinating mentor programs for math and science at California State University in Long Beach. Edson-Perrone expressed sadness upon leaving her colleagues yet, quite poetically, found that her colleagues were her own lifelong professors, as the board has been “a true inspiration” to her. Edson-Perrone vowed to “remember everyone [the board] for the rest of her life” as well as fondly “remembering times with her office partner Mary Clerk and her colleague Sue Parsons”. The Cerritos College Board represents an autonomous district within Cerritos College and is representative of their respective faculty and student body. All meetings are held in the Cheryl A.

KOREA
Continued from page 1 greeted by the Republic of Korea honor guard, which included members of the Navy, Army, Marines and Air Force. This was followed by a visit to the Korea War Memorial Museum. The Memorial Tower is dedicated to those who sacrificed their lives for the country. Inside are memorial plaques of the American soldiers who died in the war the remains of 7,000 unknown soldiers. From there we visited the North Seoul Tower where we had lunch. The tower was opened to the public on Oct. 15, 1980 and is a major tourist attraction with a beautiful view overlooking the city. Most of the veterans were in their early 20’s during the war. The tower was built on a hill half a mile from where the bus dropped us off. We made it up the hill after much, huffing and puffing. It was worth the climb. Following lunch we visited Samsung Electronics Factory and Museum located in a four square mile compound. Approximately 160,000 persons are employed here. It can best be described as a “city within a city,” with grounds that include parks and recreation facilities, theaters and much more where the employees can relax and refresh themselves. We were given a tour of the facility where we saw all the previous and new products they manufacture including phones, cameras, TVs and refrigerators. Prime Minister Dinner This was later followed by a dinner hosted by the South Korean Prime Minster. We were presented with Medals of Honor by the Prime Minister and honored by Brigadier General Sung. The American Ambassador Katherine Stephens also gave a speech. Thursday we visited the Army 2nd Operation Command in Daegu where we were honored to a parade by the Korean Army which normally is reserved for heads of state. We also watched a demonstration of hand-to-hand combat. We were presented a banner placed over our shoulders that read, “We will always remember your sacrifice and dedication.” During lunch a Prisoner of War Banner was presented to the Commanding officer in Daegu. That evening we visited the Sae Eden Church. Greeting us were children on the front steps singing Glory Hallelujah and God Bless America. Upon entering the church, we received a huge ovation. Following dinner we attended a Commemorative service. Pastor So Kang Suk said he was grateful to us for saving their country. He felt he and his country have only done a small part to thank us. As we left the church we were cheered again On our fourth day, June 25, we attended a 60th Anniversary Ceremony of the Korean War with a Prayer Service for Peace at Seoul’s Olympic Stadium. Seoul hosted the 1988 Olympics. The main speaker was Korea President Lee Myung-Bak who praised us and thanked us for our service to his country. He said we would be comrades forever. Following the ceremony we had lunch at the Olympic Parktel where we were afforded another view of the city. We then split up into two teams. Team One headed for the DMZ [Demilitarized Zone] and Team Two visited the Kyonbgbok Palace built in 1395. The premises were destroyed by fire at the time of Japan’s occupation of Korea during 1592-98. However, all if its 7,700 rooms were later restored under the leadership of Heungseondaewongun in the years of King Gojong [1852-1919]. Demilitarized Zone The DMZ is located in the Panmunjeom in the demilitarized zone. The zone is 2.5 miles wide and is one of the most heavily fortified boundaries in the world. It is 50 km north of Seoul and 10 km east of the city of Gaeseong. The area is mostly known for the peace talks that

were held here on Oct. 25, 1951 and was designated as the joint Security Area on July 27, 1953 when the armistice agreement was signed. Panmunjeom is now the site where North Koreans and South Koreans can come in contact on a daily basis and make efforts toward peace in Korea. Under the Armistice each side agreed to move back, creating a buffer zone. Signing the agreement were the 21 nations who came to the aid of South Korea and fought for their freedom. They are Australia, Belgium, Canada, Columbia, Ethiopia, Denmark, France, Greece, Netherlands, India, Italy, Luxembourg, New Zealand, Norway, Philippines, South Africa, Sweden, Thailand, Turkey, United Kingdom and the United States. The DMZ compound is divided into three areas. On the south end is the South Korean headquarters. On the north side is the North Korean’s headquarters. In the middle are several one-storied wooden buildings where they meet to confer. When we looked across the compounds from the steps leading into the South Korean building we could see North Koreans looking at us through binoculars. We were told not to point at them, for they would just as soon shoot us as not. Later during an orientation, we were told American and South Korean forces had discovered three tunnels from North Korea running south into South Korea large enough for tanks to go through them. We were also informed over the years other tunnels had been discovered. Following a brief rest stop and visit to a souvenir shop on the site, we boarded the busses to head back to Seoul and a dinner hosted by the Kyonggi Governor. Our last full day included a visit to the Yanghwajin Foreign Missionary Cemetery where floral tributes were presented to those missionaries who came to Korea over the years to Christianity and help build schools. Following lunch we were driven to Itaewon Street, described as the most popular shopping district for foreigners visiting and living in Seoul. The women were pleased for now they could go shopping for Korean souvenirs. From there we were driven back to the capital where we were given a farewell dinner hosted by the Sae Eden Church. The next morning we said farewell to Seoul and boarded the busses to the Incheon Airport with a stop at the Incheon Free Economic Zone where we had lunch on the 21st floor of a high rise office building, part of a new “global” city being born on reclaimed land. Sixty years following the war that left behind a country in rubble and its capital in ruins, South Korea has lifted itself up by its bootstraps and rebuilt the country. Many of the veterans couldn’t believe what they were viewing from the buses. Freeways similar to what we have in the United States, Streets that looked like they belong in America, and high rises reaching up into the sky. They also marveled at the trees and green areas not only in the city but also in the countryside. Today South Korea is a nation that looks forward to the future. One host commented, we emulated America while keeping our traditions and history. Throughout our visit we were greeted by an overwhelming feeling of friendship. People would stop us and thank us for saving their country. Unlike in the United States, here the Korea War is not “A Forgotten War.”
