Arlington to celebrate 90th Reopening and anniversary celebration scheduled this month

Students demand $900 checks UCSB YDSA marches to request stimulus checks from chancellor By GRAYCE MCCORMICK NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

A crowd of UCSB students marched from Storke Tower to Chancellor Henry Yang’s oncampus residence for money they say they not only need, but deserve. Led by the leaders of UCSB’s chapter of Young Democratic Socialists of America, several

students rallied together Saturday afternoon in support of $900 checks for every student at the university, using its CARES and CRRSA Act funds that the activists say the administration has been “just sitting on.” “Right now, UCSB is still charging full tuition and full student fees for on-campus services like the library and the Please see UCSB on A3

The Arlington Theatre, located at 1317 State St. in Santa Barbara, advertises its 90th anniversary celebration on its marquee.

By ANNELISE HANSHAW NEWS-PRESS STAFF WRITER

The Arlington Theatre will open its arched mahogany doors May 21 for a three-day anniversary celebration. The event will mark 90 years of this local landmark. “Movies to world-renowned speakers to the film festival bring people there,” said David Corwin, president of Metropolitan Theatres, which owns the Arlington. “I think a lot of the people in the community have memories of visiting there as a child, and that’s one of the things that is special about the Arlington.” The theater, located at 1317 State St. in Santa Barbara, was built to withstand fire, designed with concrete instead of wood structures. But its architects didn’t predict a global pandemic. The 2,018-seat theater has been closed for over a year. Its employees have begun to flip the switches and prepare equipment for a weekend full of movies. To celebrate this timeless treasure, it’s only right to show beloved classics on the big screen. Management chose “E.T.,” “Ghostbusters” and “Blade Runner: The Final Cut” to play each day May 21-23. Tickets for each showtime are $5, and popcorn is complimentary. To open the day May 22, the Santa Barbara Theatre Organ Society with special guest organist Adam Aceto will perform on the Arlington’s theatre organ.

NEXT FOR THE ARLINGTON The Arlington Theater didn’t get to host the Santa Barbara International Film Festival this year, but the theater’s manager Karen Killingsworth says it’ll likely be back next year. She also expects that live performances will be back this fall. When gov. Gavin Newsom announced that he’d open the state June 15, promoters

immediately began contacting Ms. Killingsworth. Under orange-tier standards, the venue can only hold 200 people, less than 10% of its occupancy. The guidelines allow 50% capacity or 200 people, whichever is fewer people, so the Arlington will feel bare until it can serve a larger audience. Otherwise, the historic theater looks the same. “People like the way it is,” Mike Cooley, stage manager, said. “I’m big on if it’s not broken, don’t try to fix it.” Mr. Cooley, who’s worked at the theater for 35 years (and occassionally helped out when he was a teenager in Santa Barbara) says the lack of modern features hasn’t hurt the theater. A big-time promoter once told him that even though the Arlington is old, it’s cleaner than

many modern buildings. One of the few major upgrades he’s made to the theater is the addition of the organ, which sits on a hydraulic lift below the stage when not in use.

THE THEATRE ORGAN The organ is a few years older than the theater. It’s a 1928 Robert-Morton “Wonder Morton,” one of only five ever made. The organ has nearly 2,000 pipes, hidden behind missionstyle structures that make the theater feel like a courtyard. And, unlike a church organ, it has more than just pipes. There are special effects, like a wave machine that rolls ball bearings around on a metal pan to sound like the ocean. Theatre organs were made to accompany silent movies (think Charlie Chaplin) and have sound

effects movies may need. Having the organ at the theater shows Metropolitan Theaters’ heart for the Arlington. The corporation owns 17 theaters but none have as much history as the Arlington. “(Bruce Corwin) wanted a theatre pipe organ in this theater. This is his favorite theater. And he really helped us to facilitate getting one,” Santa Barbara Theatre Organ Society President Bruce Murdock said. The organ was originally installed in a theater in New Jersey and was transported to Dallas when the theater was scheduled to be torn down (It ended up surviving.). The theatre organ society in Dallas struggled to find a location big enough for the organ’s 7,000 parts. It was expensive to haul Please see ARLINGTON on A4

This afternoon, from 1:30 to 5 p.m., the Santa Barbara City Council will hold a budget review meeting and public hearing for the Parks and Recreation Department, including Creeks and Golf funds. Then, Tuesday afternoon, starting at 2 p.m., the Council will hear Sewer Lateral Inspection Program updates. The city’s Sewer Lateral Inspection Program, established in 2007, addresses the increasing number of private sewer lateral spills and public spills by working with property owners to replace or repair their failing private sewer laterals. The program has continued to develop and change in response to the community’s needs. Staff will update the Council on improving customer services, developing effective public communication materials, offering incentive programs, sewer lateral renewal options, the Forward-Lateral webbased software, its Financial Assistance Program, administrative guidelines and municipal code updates. In other business, the city will hold a public hearing on the proposed Santa Barbara Clean Energy Rates. They’ll also be asked to approve the Clean Energy Rate setting formula for each of its energy product offerings across all customer types and authorize the City Administrator to determine rates by application of the formulas. The premium results in a bill increase of approximately 5 to 8% for residential customers, or $3 to $5 per month. Rate consideration factors include

revenue sufficiency, rate competitiveness, rate stability, customer understanding, equity among customers and efficiency. SBCE will offer customers three distinct energy product choices defined by the amount of carbon-free energy content, as established by Council, and price per kilowatt-hour (kWh). The default product, which all customers in Santa Barbara will be automatically enrolled to at launch of service, is the SBCE 100% Green product, which offers customers 100% carbon-free electricity at a small premium of $0.012/kWh over Southern California Edison’s rates, which have been approved by the California Public Utilities Commission. The second product, SBCE Green Start, is the “opt down” product, meaning customers can choose to opt down to this product, which provides less carbon-free content but more than the incumbent utility, SCE, at the same baseline rate charged by SCE. The third option is SBCE Resilient, a program for customers who install solar energy or battery energy storage at their home or business and allows those customers to net meter the energy on an annualized basis and receive revenue for any excess generation. Under this program, the customer is paid a Net Surplus Compensation Rate of $0.0663/kWh if their system has generated more kWh than they have used in a 12-month relevant period. The meetings can be viewed on City TV Channel 18 or streamed live at www. SantaBarbaraCA.gov/CAP. email: gmccormick@newspress.com

PATH awarded funds for new van SANTA BARBARA — People Assisting The Homeless Santa Barbara has been awarded $50,000 to purchase a new commercial van. The funding was provided from the Women’s Fund of Santa Barbara, which recently awarded grants to 10 local nonprofits, totaling $750,000. The new van is already in use, transferring client belongings and collecting and distributing donated food to agencies that feed people experiencing homelessness. PATH Santa Barbara operates the former Casa Esperanza Interim Housing site, which provides a variety of services for neighbors experiencing homelessness that include employment, outreach, housing navigation, interim housing, and rapid rehousing. “Thanks to the generosity of the Women’s Fund, our new van will allow us to provide important peace of mind — and stomach — to the over 500 women and men who come to PATH each year for shelter, support, and a new start”, Tessa Madden Storms, PATH Santa Barbara Regional Director, said in a statement. Every day, PATH teams drive to grocery partners across the city to pick up food donations that play a critical role in keeping clients and residents healthy and fed. This includes over $1 million in product from Trader Joe’s each year to help feed the 100 residents living in the interim housing program, as well as many of the people PATH supports in motels and permanent housing. “This new vehicle came right in time! After ten years (on) the road and almost 250,000 miles on the odometer, PATH’s previous vehicle was no longer up to the task of providing reliable transportation for staff, clients, and volunteers who use it,” said John Bowlin, PATH Santa Barbara Associate Director of Development & Volunteers. — Mitchell White

Santa Barbara County Board of Supervisors to allocate CREF funds By GRAYCE MCCORMICK

Supervisors will allocate the total of $712,800 available for coastal acquisitions and $293,212 available for general allocation. The permits require payment of mitigation fees to CREF for the life of each project, and allocation of grants or loans from CREF must be directed at mitigating the specific types of impacts the conditions were crafted to address.

Continued from Page A1 the rec center, which most of the student body doesn’t have access to because they’re not even on campus,” Taylor Clark, co-chair of YDSA, told the News-Press. “A lot of us are going deeper into debt because of that, so this demand to redistribute the money that was given to UCSB from the federal government is really just giving back to students what they deserve and the money that’s really theirs having paid for services they haven’t received.” He said the student organization requested meetings with the Office of Budget and Planning, the Vice Chancellors and the Chancellor himself, but all requests were denied or ignored — that is, until Friday night. “We sent our first demand letter to the administration a month ago, and we only just got a response last night,” Mr. Clark said. “Essentially what they said is they cannot give us these stimulus checks because they plan on using the stimulus money to balance the university’s budget.” According to YDSA’s demand letter, they calculated and are demanding that $400 checks be cut from the remaining $10 million in CARES Act stimulus funds and be sent to every eligible undergraduate and graduate student — including 10,000 students who were left out of the first round of stimulus — and $500 checks cut from the CRRSA Act funds to be distributed to students directly, or $75 a month. The students said they learned that the school received a total of roughly $50 million for COVID relief from the two acts, and half of it was legally mandated to be paid to the students and the

other half was discretionary, but UCSB hadn’t spent most of the discretionary funds. “We were like, ‘Look, if you’re not spending it, we can come up with something to do with it. We can just give it to students,’” Patrick Fiarbanks, the secretary of YDSA at UCSB, told the NewsPress. “Nine-hundred dollar checks in everybody’s pockets? The students know what they need. The school doesn’t know what each individual needs, but each individual student knows what they need for themselves.” In addition, the students said they learned the state government is raising the UC’s budget by $80 million and the school will receive more from the American Rescue Plan coming from the federal government. “The fact they’re claiming they can’t give any of this money to students when we know they’re already getting massive amounts of money in excess of what they’ve been getting over the past few years is ridiculous and not really logical,” Mr. Clark said. The organization’s demand had more than 500 students on board via petition at the time they sent the demand letter, and gained support from the associated Student Senate and president, representatives of UAW 2865 at UCSB and the COLA/Cops Off Campus graduate student organization. And, they said they don’t plan to slow down. Mr. Fairbanks said that in his mind, the school has two options: to be a business or a social institution. If it’s a business, the students are paying for a service or product which is their education, so they’d be getting a worse product for the same money so they should reduce the product price. If it’s a social institution, the students are the focal point

of the institution and they work for the students, so they have an obligation to help the students, or at least be more communicative. “I speak to a lot of people who get turned off by the ‘socialist’ part of us, and I get that and everybody’s got a different feeling... But when I talk to people about this, they all agree that, look, we’re getting ripped off whichever way you slice it,” Mr. Fairbanks said. “Maybe this isn’t exactly what they would want to see happen, but at the very least, we’re trying to get the school to be responsible for this money that it was given instead of just kind of sitting on it.” Cody Nunn, the treasurer for YDSA, said UCSB displayed a lack of accountability from the start, and from the beginning, there was always a “vague promise” that the school would do something, whether it be refunds or lower tuition, to compensate for the online alternative. “Then, the quarter after that, they raised tuition,” Mr. Nunn said. “They’re just refusing to acknowledge the fact that we’ve been pretty much robbed of the purpose of coming here, but because of interest rates and things like that with our student loans, we don’t have the option to just take time off until it resumes in person. “They present it as if we have some kind of choice, like if we don’t like the online school, just don’t do it. But for a lot of people, that’s not really the reality.” The students chanted and carried signs as they marched to Chancellor Yang’s residence, but said they assumed he wasn’t inside, and won’t respond any time soon. “I think that the university will only respond in proportion to how much students are able to mobilize around this money,” Mr. Clark said. “I think there’s going to

everything back to Santa Barbara, but the largest obstacle was reconstructing and installing the pipes in the alcoves of the Arlington. One of the organ society’s members offered an empty Wells Fargo location to start assembly. Then, they installed it in the theater, mitering the long pipes to fit the limited space. It took 37,000 volunteer hours, Mr. Mudock said, but the Arlington got its old-school theatre organ (and the theatre organ society got a magnificent location to perform in, too). Mr. Murdock is an electrical engineer, so he was able to wire the organ and give it the ability to play from a CD — a modern touch in an antique instrument. There’s always something to fix on the organ, as it has many pipes and instruments. And with movies playing all day, there’s a limited window of opportunity to make repairs. “We had unlimited access to the organ, and that’s that’s rare here because they played movies constantly,” George Ferrand, the theatre organ society’s vice president, said. “And the virus, it gave us a chance to do some updating.” Members of the organ society have enjoyed having the theater to themselves during the pandemic, but they’re accustomed to performing about four times each year. The 90th anniversary celebration will be the first time any of them played for an audience in over a year.

Metropolitan has begun upgrading theaters’ seats to recliners. The change can reduce capacity by up to 60%, so the company is strategically selecting locations based on their layout. The upgrade will raise prices, but Mr. Corwin said it won’t significantly affect affordability.

C.G. sent me a pair of gorgeous tall (3 foot) candelabra, and wondered what they might be. Of course, the answer is that they are wrought iron from the 1930s. She has had them for 30 years on her back porch on an old stone garden table in Santa Barbara, and they were in bad shape until I came to the house and said, “Restore those! They are period pieces with a heritage in Santa Barbara!” But when I emailed her my response, she asked, “Well, how is wrought iron different from cast iron, and how do I tell, and is there a valuation difference?” The answer is yes. There is a valuation difference, and later we will see that there are knockoffs of her candelabra in aluminum, and, of course, she wondered if she has “appropriate” garden furniture. She is also worried that her George Washington Smith home might be “sullied” by mid20th-century aluminum garden furniture. So here I explain to C.G. the difference in cast, wrought and aluminum furniture. Read on if you want to know the difference between cast and wrought iron, and aluminum, and how these three mediums figure in the antique world — as far as your lawn furniture, antique bed frames and even stair railings. And Santa Barbara is the center-most mecca for Spanish Colonial in the 19201940s, so this question matters to us. The photos C.G. sent do not include the wonderful vision of a 1930s railing that is the handrail and balustrades of her 1930s-era grand and elegant Santa Barbara stairway. Did I say she had a wrought iron balustrade creating her stairway? There is a reason for this: Wrought iron is VERY strong, and stronger than cast iron. Wrought iron means the iron was wrought. Each time it was worked, it was heated and pounded into shape; it became stronger. Iron indeed is the most common element on this planet, consisting of 35% of the Earth’s total mass, only followed in prevalence by oxygen at 30% and silicon at 15%. Iron is found in the earth’s inner and outer cores. As I suggested, in antique furniture there are two main forms of iron used: cast and wrought. They are not the same. Cast iron includes an alloy which is 2-4% carbon, with silicon and manganese.

And cast iron is made through casting, meaning it is poured into molds; wrought iron, as these gorgeous candelabra, is made of iron, which is mixed with the by-product of the smelting (read that as “pig iron”). Then those experienced metalworkers bend it and hammer it and heat it about six times. Wrought iron is the medium of choice when something needs to be flexible and strong — like C.G.’s candelabras — at the same time. Such is the stair balustrade. The period when we see wrought iron in its heyday was the early 20th century because that era was the era of Revivalism with a capital “R”: Spanish Revival for example, and people, especially us here in Santa Barbara, know wrought iron in our vintage homes in terms of lighting fixtures, stair railings, outdoor furniture, which is always a bestseller here in our town, as well as period stairs and architectural salvage. When you are looking for wrought iron, which is generally considered more valuable that cast, look to see mold lines, because that will tell you the piece is cast. Wrought iron, because it is hammered repeatedly, will not have mold lines And C.G. asks if any pieces of wrought iron are signed or labeled, and the answer is generally they are not. We must rely on the style

to tell us the maker and the era. Knock offs of wrought iron antiques are often made of aluminum in the later 20th century, and all you need to distinguish wrought iron from aluminum is to pick it up. Wrought will be so much heavier. Also, aluminum will not rust, and wrought iron will, so test it with a magnet and if your magnet adheres, it is iron and not aluminum. The Art Deco period was the era of wrought iron, which is the 19201930s, and that is the era where you find great wrought iron like C.G.’s candelabra. The value of the pair? $1,200, and the interesting thing is that many places in the U.S. will not value 1930s wrought iron the way we do here in the mecca of Spanish Colonial Revival homes. And so, your market, C.G., if you sell, is here: Santa Barbara. Dr. Elizabeth Stewart’s “Ask the Gold Digger” column appears Mondays in the News-Press Life section. Written after her father’s COVID-19 diagnosis, Dr. Stewart’s book “My Darlin’ Quarantine: Intimate Connections Created in Chaos” is a humorous collection of five “what-if” short stories that end in personal triumphs over presentday constrictions. It’s available at Chaucer’s in Santa Barbara.

Virgo Now that summer is here, it’s time to broaden perspectives, Virgo. Use this time to take a summer class or explore a new talent. The new moon is encouraging you to do this!

Sagittarius

Capricorn This week brings a whole new level of love affair, Capricorn. If you’re not in love, you might be by the end of this week. Mercury and Saturn connect on Wednesday though, and that takes you straight back to work.

Aquarius The new moon appears in your family zone. Some homebuilding or familial foundations will need to take place. But this is just what you needed. Jupiter moves into Pisces, in your value zone. So, there’s plenty of luck in money matters over the next two weeks.

“What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?” — Vincent Van Gogh

The new moon lights up your privacy zone, Gemini—asking you to discover more of your hidden talents. Mercury and Saturn make a trine this week that asks you to grow your mental horizons. Starting to learn a new topic or starting a new project might be a good idea.

Codeword is a fun game with simple rules, and a great way to test your knowledge of the English language. Every number in the codeword grid is ‘code’ for a letter of the alphabet. Thus, the number 2 may correspond to the letter L, for instance. All puzzles come with a few letters to start. Your first move should be to enter these letters in the puzzle grid. If the letter S is in the box at the bottom of the page underneath the number 2, your first move should be to find all cells numbered 2 in the grid and enter the letter S. Cross the letter S off the list at the bottom of the grid. Remember that at the end you should have a different letter of the alphabet in each of the numbered boxes 1- 26, and a word in English in each of the horizontal and vertical runs on the codeword grid.

Meet the lunch heroes: the food service employees with the Santa Maria Joint Union High School District. The district and the community honored the workers during School Nutrition Employee Week, which took place last week. They also received recognition on School Lunch Hero Day, which took place Friday. District and site administrators thanked the more than 40 food service professionals on a day when the tables were turned (in a good way). For a change, the food service workers were served lunch at Santa Maria, Pioneer Valley and Righetti high schools. The celebration was also marked by posters on the campuses and in the vehicle pickup areas. “They have had a different role this year with the driveup, bus service and to-go bags,” Food Service Director Brook Stephenson said in a news release. “It was a pleasure to thank them for their hard work and helping to feed the entire community during the pandemic.” This year, the state’s school nutrition professionals were called to do more than ever before. Meals served last June increased by more than 66 percent than the number in June 2019. And meals served in July 2020 increased by a whopping 360 percent, according to the California Department Education. In the Santa Maria high school district, food service workers have served nearly 250,000 meals since January.

NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF: MARGARET M. ZANINOVICH Case Number: 21PR00170 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: Margaret M. Zaninovich also know as Margaret Mary Zaninovich A Petition for Probate has been filed by Katina Zaninovich, Sonya Cesari and Jon Zaninovich in the SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SANTA BARBARA. The Petition for Probate requests that Katina Zaninovich, Sonya Cesari and Jon Zaninovich be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent. The Petition requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. The petition requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A hearing on the petition will be held in this court as follows: Date: 06/03/2021 at Time: 9:00 AM, in Dept.: 5, located at SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF SANTA BARBARA, 1100 Anacapa Street, Santa Barbara, CA 93101; PO Box 21107, Santa Barbara, CA 93121-1107, Anacapa Division. If you object to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. If you are a creditor or a contingent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.
