Heard ANN CLEAVES About Town Shoplifter at Gelson’s A man in his late 50s, early 60s was being held at a tree by the steps at Gelson’s. He started screaming “Let me go.” A bunch of us rushed to see what was going on. It turns out the man had shoplifted spices and put them in his pants and the guy was trying to hold him until the police came. Enough people didn’t know what was happening and told him to let him go. The guy jumped in a nice car, a woman was waiting and they drove off. One woman said to the Good Samaritan, “You should have just let him have them.” Really. Shoplifting is never right, no matter the circumstances. Not a ‘Cookie Cutter’ For months, we have been watching and wondering what the building on Monument and Albright is going to be. It is almost finished, but what is it—a motel, a gallery, a store or perhaps a residence? It is really odd, but at least not a “cookie cutter” house!

he Paul Revere Middle School Aca- Deca Club competed in the South- Tern California Academic Pentathlon in Orange County in May. Vying against teams from public and private middle schools, Revere’s sixth graders placed fourth in their division among 45 schools in seven divisions. The school’s two seventh-grade teams competed against 46 schools in six divisions and placed second and third in their division. Out of 41 eighth-grade schools divided into seven divisions, the Revere team placed fourth in its division. “I’m happy they did so well,” said team leader Dennis Hamanishi, a seventh-grade history teacher. He was especially proud of his varsity students getting four perfect scores on the Super Quiz. Each year the pentathlon has an over- arching theme, and this year it was India. Members of the Paul Revere Acadeca Club: Front row, left to right, Alette Wells, Lena Jones, Paige Snepp, Majd Garmankani, Deanna The students received a copy of The Jungle Chun, Natasha Asamoa and Larry Smith.
