IV SUNDAY, MAY 6, I'WO B23 i.os i METRO NEWS WILMINGTON: Blighted Area By JACK PETERS INTERNATIONAL MASTER CHESS 8 2 7 1 6 4 1 JtiftM 5 I i 4 3 a 281 A i Ki 'i a tracks that cross the area, said they regularly clear debris from their 40-foot-widc right of way and would like to sec a cleanup campaign. Southern Pacific would bo willing tp pay part of the costs in a joint cleanup effort with the city and the port, said Jim Edgar, a captain in the company's police department. Harbor Division police also say that cleaning up the area would make their jobs easier by improving access and visibility. As he surveyed piles of debris clogging I Street on a recent morning, business owner Stoll recalled a grassy field that once covered the area more than 30 years ago when his father owned the business. "I used to run out here in a vacant lot catching jack rabbits," he said.

"But this has been like a damn spreading cancer. Nobody has done a thing, but I hope they will start now." sale in the area. The properties have been cleaned up and fenced off. Port officials say they eventually would like to own the area and use it for harbor business. At that point, they said, they would clean up the entire area.

But they balk at the idea of major spending now to improve streets in the Third World. "An assessment would be potentially counter to our desire to assemble the properties," said Mike Lemke, director of property management for the port. Lemke said paying to clean up and pave streets would not make sense if the port intends eventually to raze the whole area. He also said the port is the only entity likely to have the resources to buy the entire area and that improvements could encourage smaller businesses to move in, delaying those plans. Officials from the Southern Pacific Railroad, which owns the Continued from B21 the lack of coordination among city agencies, from animal control to street maintenance, have prevented a major cleanup.

"We cleaned up the area south of Anaheim a couple of years ago, and the second phase was supposed to go north. But it never proceeded," said Don Hanson, assistant director of street maintenance for the public works department. Flores said the earlier cleanup made progress because she was able to secure a loan from the city to begin immediate work. Property owners were then assessed to repay the loan. She said there is now Dispute Over a Seat Ends From The Associated Press A man arguing over a seat in a crowded RTD bus in downtown Los Angeles fatally shot another passenger Saturday, then ran from the bus and opened fire on two security guards before escaping, police said.

The unidentified victim was shot once through the heart, and the guards were unharmed, Sgt. Steven Brock said. The violence broke out about 6 p.m. on a Rapid Transit District bus, which was carrying "I get enough sleep. BUT I LOOK in no money to begin a similar effort.

Public works officials said that the city has the power to force landowners to keep their properties up. Because of the clutter, however, it is often hard to determine where property lines lie and who is responsible for the trash piles. The city is also responsible for keeping the streets usable by traffic, but public works officials said that the financial responsibility for paving the area's dirt tracks would fall to property owners. In recent years, the Port of Los Angeles has bought virtually all properties that have come up for Killing on RTD Bus about 75 passengers southbound on Broadway. "A couple of people had a disagreement on the bus," Brock said.

"One of the men pulls a gun and shoots the other man's son, who was trying to break up the argument." The gunman fled the bus at Broadway and 11th Street and ran west on 11th. He was confronted by security guards a couple of blocks away, Brock said. The gunman fired at but missed the guards and escaped, he said.
