  • Letters to the Editor
    LAMORINDA WEEKLY | Letters to the Editor Published July 8th, 2009 Letters to the Editor Editor, It was good to read your article on Aaron Poreda making it to the show and his Campolindo background. I wish him much success in his baseball career and will be rooting for him. In the article you indicate that he became the second player in Campolindo High School history to play professional baseball. Actually, Campolindo has a storied baseball history. In the l980's they were league champions in '80-'81-'82-'83-'84-'85-'87 & '88. They were North Coast Champions in 1988 when teams from all divisions played for one championship. That l988 team was also voted the #1 team in the East Bay and the #1 3A team in the state by Cal Hi Sports. A number of players from the l980's and '90's went on to play college and professional baseball. In l983 Ron Delucci was the #7 overall pick by the Pittsburg Pirates in the Major League draft. Dave Carley, a pitcher, was drafted in the 8th round. Chip Hale, Paul Faries & Steve Erickson went on the college from that team and all played professional ball. Hale got a World Series ring playing for the Minnesota Twins and is currently the third base coach for the Arizona Diamondbacks. Faries played in the big leagues for the San Diego Padres and the San Francisco Giants. From the 1988 team a number of players were chosen to play professional baseball including Steve Bishop, Mike McDermott, Sean O'Connell, Jeff Scarpitti, Mike Harrison and Jon Zuber.

    CELEBRITY SPOTLIGHT ISSUE 09 – MAY / JUNE 2013 14 WWW.PINK-PARENTING.COM WORDS_ LOUISA GHEVAERT With a successful career in acting and a man of style, 35 year old Zachary Quinto has become one of Hollywood’s hottest stars. Recently coming out to the world, not just about his sexuality, but also his desire to start a family with partner, and fellow actor, Jonathan Groff, we find out more about his roots, his rise to fame and his wish to become a dad. orn in Pittsburgh in June 1977, Zachary’s father, a barber, died of cancer when he was just seven years old, leaving him and his brother, Joe, to be raised by their mother in a single parent family. He graduated from Central Catholic High School in 1995, and his talent for acting won him the Pittsburgh Gene Kelly Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in Central’s 1994 Bproduction of Gilbert and Sullivan’s Pirates of Penzance. Zachary remained in Pittsburgh and enrolled at Carnegie Mellon University’s School of Drama, whose alumni includes actors Patrick Wilson (Watchmen, The A-Team) and Ethan Hawke (Gattaca, Training Day) and Hollywood powerhouse Paula Wagner (one half of cinema’s most profitable double- act, Cruise/Wagner Productions, responsible for the Mission: Impossible franchise and box office takings of $2.9 billion). FROM TECHIE TO TREKKIE After graduating in 1999, Zachary took varied guest roles in TV shows such as CSI, Charmed, Six Feet Under and Lizzie McGuire. In 2003, he found some stability when cast as CTU’s resident computer expert, Adam Kaufman, in Day 3 of the pseudo real-time political thriller 24.

  • Forgotten Heroes
    Forgotten Heroes: Sam Hairston by Center for Negro League Baseball Research Dr. Layton Revel Copyright 2020 “Sam Hairston Night” – Colorado Springs (1955) “Sam Hairston Night” at the Colorado Springs Sky Sox Ball Park Sam Receives a New Car (1955) Hairston Family at Colorado Springs Ball Park “Sam Hairston Night” (front row left to right - Johnny, Sam Jr., Wife and Jerry) (1955) Samuel Harding Hairston was born on January 20, 1920 in the small town of Crawford, Lowndes County which is in the eastern part of the state of Mississippi. He was the second of thirteen children (eight boys and five girls) born to Will and Clara Hairston. Will Hairston moved his family from Crawford to the Birmingham area in 1922. The primary reason for the move was to find better work so that he could support his large family. Will became a coal miner and worked alongside Garnett Bankhead who was the father of the five Bankhead brothers who all played in the Negro Leagues. By 1930 Will had gained employment with American Cast Iron and Pipe (ACIPCO) as a laborer in their pipe shop. According to United States census records the Hairston family also lived in North Birmingham and Sayreton. Sam spent his formative years in Hooper City and attended Hooper City High School. Reportedly Sam did not finish high school and when he was 16 he told the employment office at ACIPCO that he was 18 and was given a job working for the company. According to Sam he went to work to help support the family and give his brothers and sisters the opportunity to go to school.
