Ins I SUNDAY. SUMI.MHI.K '). ITO B5 METRO NEWS MALIBU: Council-in-Waiting Is Already Politicking By JACK PETERS INTERNATIONAL MASTER CHESS the Senior Citizens Building, 405 S. Santa Anita Ave. in Arcadia, will host the Istvanyi Memorial, a six-round tournament, on Mondays beginning Sept.

10. Call Fred Brock at (818) 331-1638. The Ventura County Chess Club, which meets 1 p.m. Tuesdays in the Financial Plaza Hilton in Oxnard, has begun Chess for Relaxation, a five-round tournament. Late entrants are welcome.

For information, call Irv Besen at (805) 644-5050. The club's Summer Chess tournament attracted 23 players. Prizewinners were Ray Datuin, Vincent Diglio, Bruce Campbell, Michael Panopoulos, Marty Adlin, Cliff Dalton, and David Ackerman. Ken Garver and Johnnie Souza won Victor Valley Chess Assn. quads, and Carl Matthews and organizer Steve Bradley tied for first in another.

TODAY'S GAMES TIIEAL1TSIOS ForThcTimcj Notwithstanding the tired-looking stuffed animal, Malibu council members often- have spirited de bates. From left are Mike Caggiano, Missy Zeitsoff, Walter Keller, Larry Wan and Carolyn Van Horn. Continued from Bl effort it has earned high marks. After a state appeals court in July ruled that the county Board of Supervisors had the authority to delay incorporation until March, the council-elect turned to the state Legislature. A measure that would nullify the supervisors' delay swept both houses of the Legislature without opposition two weeks ago.

At the close of the legislative session Aug. 31, Gov. George Deukmejian had not acted on the bill. He has until Sept. 30 to do so.

Although council members have worked shoulder to shoulder against a county government that is about as popular in Malibu as a cloudy day at the beach, there are already signs of deep division on other matters. The differences reflect a rivalry between the two slow-growth groups that spawned the community leaders who won election to the council. Larry Wan, who finished second in the balloting, is the former president of the Malibu Township Council, the oldest residents' group in Malibu. Two other council members Caggiano and Missy Zeit-soff also came from its ranks. Walter Keller, the top vote-getter, and Carolyn Van Horn emerged from the Malibu Committee for Incorporation, which they co-chaired.

For several years, there was a tacit agreement that the Township Council would take the lead in opposing the sewer, leaving the incorporation group in the forefront of the cityhood effort. A few months before the June election, however, the incorporation group's leaders accused the Township Council of plotting to invade their turf. Despite private assurances of cooperation before the election, the rivalry quickly asserted itself once the council-elect began to meet. Almost immediately, there was a bitter rift over the hiring of a city attorney. Keller and Van Horn favored Graham Ritchie, the incorporation group's lead attorney.

The other council members settled on Michael Jenkins, who is city attorney for West Hollywood and a couple of other cities. The latest flare-up involves the choice of Keller to receive the mostly honorary title of mayor-elect. Keller's supporters had insisted since June that, because he won the most votes, he should be mayor. They noted that the top vote-getter was named mayor in all but THESE ADVERTISERS ARE MEMBERS mm i -A Kl am 1 9tB abcdefgh September 9, 1990 Position "5079: White to piny and win From the fj.ime Chrisii.inscn Bonm, Hicksville.

That is the best turnout for the Southern California Chess Federation's open state championship since the 1982 event in Anaheim, which drew 280. In addition, 20 newcomers to chess competed in the SCCF Booster Open. Perhaps tournament attendance has rebounded from its yearlong slump. The new state champion is 1M Igor Ivanov of San Pedro. Ivanov edged IM's Doug Root and Jack Peters on tiebreak.

Each scored 5W-W. Ivanov and Root won their first five games, then drew a quick game in the final round, while Peters drew in the first round, then won his last five. The decisive game of the tournament was Ivanov's fifth-round win over top-rated IM Jeremy Silman. Next at 5-1 were Burt Izumikawa, Paul Koploy, Mike Szlovak, and top un-der-2300's Steven Ross and Nicholas Schoonmaker. Jose Casillas, Richard Mattorn, and Peter Walsh scored 4V4-Vi to share undor-2200 honors, while Tracy Gray and Colette McGruder split the under-2000 prize with 3V4-2J6 scores.

Tho Santa Monica Bay Chess Club won a plaque for having the best total score by four club members. Tom Jarrell, Jeremy Martin, and William Waddoll tied for first at 5V4-V4 in tho Roservo (under 18001 section. Ton-year old Jonathan Goldfarb took the prize with a fine 5-1 score. Daniel Castro and Julio Ramirez tied for top under-1400, and Philip Nabours was best unrated. Kon Su Shim won all four games to win tho Booster Open.

Hal Fairchild and Tim Ottman wore next at 3-1. LOCAL MEWS The Southern California Senior Chess Championship, a four-round tournament open to players over age 50, takes place Sept. 15-16 at tho Senior Center, 115E. 4th St. in Long Beach.

The Long Beach September Quads will be held at the same site on Sept. 1 5 only. For information, call Lou Foch at (213) 434-3736. Antelope Valley Chess will run a five-round tournament on Sept. 15 at Nancy Cory Elementary School, 3540 W.

Calvin Powell won the Late Summer tournament at the Santa Monica Bay Chess Club, scoring 6-1. Ofer Nadler, Ben Nethercot, and Simon Kogan were next at 5V4-1W.

There were eight masters in thi; field of 54 players. Tho next SMBCC tournament, a seven-rounder on Monday evenings, begins Sept. 10 in the Senior Citizens Recreation Center, 1450 Ocean Ave. in Santa Monica. For information, call Randy Hough at (818) 282-7412 or Ben Nethercot at (213) 455-1704.

The 43-player Arcadia Summer Swiss was won by Robert Goldberg, 5W-V4. Top Class Albert Tom had 5-1. Ronald Livaudais, Hue Loo, Jeff Schroe-der, and David Tom shared the prizo, Reilly Moss and Lyle Weideman split the prize, Higinio Garcia was top "D-E," and Lee Chuan was best unrated. Tho Arcadia Chess Club, which meets to 1 1 p.m. Mondays in bers of the audience sometimes shout opinions at the council, and at each other.

There is not even a gavel yet to put the budding gadflies in their place. The council members dutifully make motions, second them and take votes. Of course, they do not have a dime to spend and cannot order anybody to do anything. So the votes are largely on ministerial matters, such as sending a letter to the California Coastal Commission on the scheduling of matters that could affect Malibu. This is the first venture into elective politics for each of the council members.

Three hold doctorates: Wan, who owns a hightech products company! Keller, a retired aerospace engineer, and Caggiano, a public policy analyst. The two others are retired schoolteachers. Besides conflicts over the mayor and city attorney, their infighting has resulted in several stalemates. Although actor Michael Landon has donated office furniture, there is no place to put it because the council, after weeks of bickering, only last week settled on a future city hall.

"Nobody's happy with the new regulations imposed by Pasadena and there is some question of their justification, but we are going to make the best of it and we're going to have fun in spite of it," Strand said. An Oklahoma fan, Robert Knott, stood outside the Rose Bowl before the game in his red Sooner shirt, red OU visor, white shorts and cowboy boots.

After arriving from Norman, to cheer on the high-octane Oklahoma offense, Knott was disappointed to learn of a dry Rose Bowl. "What we need is high cocktail consumption to fuel the game," he said. But others, like high school teacher Rose Gilbert, applauded the ban. Gilbert said she has been going to UCLA games since 1935 and has seen some rowdy drunks "moon one another and take off their clothes and vomit down here." Asbury said sales of non-alcoholic beer and bottled water were brisk. And, he said, there were no alcohol-related incidents or arrests among the 53,000 in attendance at the Hose Bowl Saturday.

"There's so much distrust between the two factions you can almost reach out and touch it," said one community activist. "If this is a dress rehearsal, what will it be like when there really is a city?" 75 Arrested in Sweep by Gang Task Force A Los Angeles Police Department gang task force swept through West Los Angeles Friday night, arresting 75 people, including 46 known gang members, and recovering six guns, two stolen cars and 101 grams of unidentified narcotics, police said Saturday. The task force, called Operation Hammer, consisted of 110 officers and was conducted by the West Bureau CRASH anti-gang unit as part of a periodic effort to curb gang activity, Lt.

Brad Mcrritt said. Security Security Systems one of the last dozen cities to incorporate in Los Angeles County. When the matter was brought up at an early meeting of the council, the majority faction favored postponing a choice until after incorporation. Then, in a surprise move last week, Wan offered the motion to appoint Keller. In the excitement of the moment, Keller and some of his supporters apparently did not notice that the motion called for him to surrender the title in April.

Keller said later that he thought the appointment would last until 1992. If the county gets its way in forcing the delay of cityhood until March, it means that the new mayor-elect may only be mayor for a few weeks. Keller's partisans cried foul. "If that's somebody's idea of a fence-mending gesture, the fur is going to fly," said Van Horn, who, although she voted for the appointment, has since expressed misgivings. In their overall tone, the council sessions fall somewhere between a New England town hall meeting and a television talk show.

"The only change was that no alcohol was being sold in the stadium and no alcohol was being brought in." So what's the ruling? Here's an instant replayi To cut down on mayhem in the stadium and on the road afterward, Hose Bow officials have banned the sale of beer or any alcoholic beverages inside the stadium during UCLA's home games. The one-year trial that began with the Oklahoma game is supposed to encourage a more family-oriented environment.

Meanwhile, the city of Pasadena told UCLA officials a year ago that it would begin enforcing a longtime ordinance against drinking in city parks, like Brooksidc Park which surrounds the Hose Bowl, although they would not target individuals. On the endangered list, however, were traditional pregame parties where friends or organizations gather to eat and imbibe.
