motivated supervisors to do nothing except
discuss the bill at their June 12 meeting.
Senate Bill 1487 – the Iconic African Spe-

iconic animals, including African elephants,
lions, rhinos, zebras and hippos.
The bill sets fines of $5,000 to $40,000
as punishment for violations.

Supervisor Mike Wilson said he can un-
derstand that argument but “it seems a bit
colonial in its framework.”
Wilson noted that the commission has
requested that its budget be increased from
$3,000 to $6,000 and questioned whether
the issue is relevant to its purpose.
“If they brought the parts back, then it
would be within the County of Humboldt,”
said Board Chair Ryan Sundberg.
Wilson laughed briefly. “That would be

Supervisor Estelle Fennell said she can’t

Supervisor Rex Bohn, who sponsored the
agenda item, said the bill is over-reaching
and is being advanced for its sponsor’s po-

“I just don’t think it’s very well-written,”
he said. “I kind of figure that they’re playing
on the feelings of ‘Oh my God, we’re going
to kill all this stuff’ and Senator (Henry)
Stern is gonna be able to use it on his next
campaign.”
Sundberg said that his “default position”

Main Street had earned the enmity of
local breweries by asking for their beer
to be donated to this year’s Arcata Bay

was a co-sponsor). The local brew-
ers alleged that Arcata Main Street

ARCATA – The City of Arcata has adopted
new standards regarding adult-use cannabis re-
tail sales and services, which will take effect on
Friday, July 6.
At the Arcata City Council meeting held on
June 6, 2018, the City Council voted unani-
mously to adopt City Ordinance No. 1501, which
amended zoning regulations pertaining to can-
nabis retail sales and services. These zoning
changes are a result of new state laws legalizing
recreational adult-use cannabis and community
input provided over the past year.
The new ordinance allows retail cannabis
sales and services in commercial and light in-
dustrial districts including downtown and cen-
tral Arcata, Northtown, Valley West, the in-
dustrial areas of South G Street, the Creamery
District, West End Road/Aldergrove and the
neighborhood commercial areas.
Businesses primarily conducting cannabis
retail sales and services are now required to re-

A hard-earned victory for Crabs

HUMBOLDT CRABS
Erik Fraser
Humboldt Crabs
ARCATA – Ask any baseball player, and
they’ll tell you that the last thing you want
on getaway day on the road is to go into ex-
tra innings. You want a quick game so you
can get on the road and head home.
But you don’t always get what you want.
After breezing to an 8-1 win in the first
of two games against the Colt 45s at Ti-
ger Field in Redding, the Crabs seemed
on their way to a sweep, leading 5-3 in the
eighth. But with one on and no outs, the
45s’ Daniel Duerte mashed a game-tying
homer, leading to a marathon game that
wouldn’t end until after 1 a.m.
The teams traded rallies in the 10th,
with each scoring twice, but that was it for
a while. A long while. It wasn’t until the top
of the 20th — twentieth! — inning that any-
one from either team would cross the plate
again.
Fittingly, it was McCarthy Tatum who
started the rally with a leadoff triple — his
sixth hit in nine at-bats on the evening. (Is
it still an evening at 1 a.m.?) Chase Larsen
followed with a single to drive in Tatum,
and then scored himself three batters later
on a double by Jackson Kritsch for the final
run of a hard-earned 9-7 victory.
Eighteen hours later, the Crabs found
themselves back on this side of the 299
corridor, facing another longtime rival, the
Seattle Studs. All three games against the
Studs were close ones, but the visitors took
two out of three, handing the Crabs their
first series loss of the young season.
“It was a good series,” said manager Rob-
in Guiver after Sunday’s game, a shutout
loss in which Studs starter Alex Spahman
went the distance and allowed just two hits.
“We split the first two and then their guy
just pitched his tail off today. … We pitched
pretty well today, just didn’t hit.”
The teams had split the first two games
of the series. On Friday night, the Crabs
sent Alex Pham to the hill, dueling against
Seattle’s Mitchel Viydo. Both pitchers were
solid, and the game was tied 1-1 after six
innings. But the Studs’ Brennan Hancock
knocked in two runs in the seventh, and the
Crabs could only manage one run in their
half of the inning and they dropped the
game 3-2.
On Saturday, the Crabs looked on their
way to a relatively easy win, carrying a
6-2 lead into the ninth. Jared Milch and
Kenton Carruthers had both pitched well,
and the Crabs had gotten some timely hits
in the sixth and seventh innings, scoring
twice in each frame.
But Tatum — yes, the same Tatum who’d
had six hits on Thursday — took the mound
in the ninth, and couldn’t put the Studs
away. The visitors scored four times, send-
ing the game into extra innings.
Tatum had the last laugh though, be-
cause even though he had been removed
from the mound in the ninth, he was still in
the lineup. He singled to lead off the 11th,

the first pitch. Matt Filar | Union
and ultimately came around to score the
winning run when the Studs threw the ball
away on a sacrifice bunt attempt by Santi-
ago Cantu.
Sunday’s game saw Spahman outduel
Crabs ambidextrous starter Alex Traut-
ner, who despite warming up both arms,
pitched exclusively with his right one
during the game.
Though it had been a long week, Guiver
refused to blame that for his team’s two-hit
effort on Father’s Day, preferring instead
to heap praise on the Crabs’ opponent.
“He did good,” Guiver said of Spahman.
“I know we’re tired as a team right now, and
it will be nice to have a day off tomorrow. It
was kind of a wild road trip to Redding, a
lot happened in those two days — the bus
broke down, a 20-inning game — but no

humor and the humanity of coming home from war. their rich catalogs and sharing stories from the ‘60’s
Laurel Canyon scene they helped build.

Another, deeper aim was the conceit that one of the

characters was a ghost that only the other two could see. A
quick line early in the play alludes to that, when Pantalo-
na says she can’t see him. But it’s a throwaway. Much later
in the play it’s explained but by that time it’s a bit late.
Still, it was a tender and poignant moment when I re-
alized that a character who had been delighting me with
clever dialogue and physical antics was, in fact, dead. At
least three people I asked about it after the play didn’t
get it. In fact, they looked at me as if I were the crazy one.
Can dead be funny? Michael Fields says in his Direc-
tor’s Note, “Is war funny? No.”
The first section of the play where Capitano, played
by James Peck with humor and depth, drills and admon-
ishes three soldiers, Ruzzante, Brighella, and Stupino, is
funny. This section is classic Commedia with physical
maneuvers that mimic the military in theater and dance.
“War is what happens when language fails,” he says.

LOS LOBOS
Date: Thursday, Jan. 10
Location: Arkley Center for the
Performing Arts, Eureka
About: Over the past 40 years, East L.A.’s Los
Lobos has redefined how a rock band—and rock
music—can sound. Many musical groups are
eclectic, but few are equally as unpredictable and
successful as Los Lobos. The band has notched
a number one single, won three Grammys and
sold millions of records. Returning to Humboldt
with both an acoustic and electric set format, this
concert is sure to prove once again why Los Lobos
still remains one of the greatest bands to see live in
popular music.
THE TEMPTATIONS
Date: Thursday, Jan. 17
Location: Arkley Center for the
Performing Arts, Eureka
About: An essential component of the original
Motown sound, the Temps began their musical life in
Detroit in the early ‘60s. An avalanche of now classic
hit songs followed including My Girl, Get Ready, Ain’t
Too Proud to Beg, and Papa Was a Rollin’ Stone. Be-
yond their fabulous trademark harmonies, the Temps
became known for smooth-stepping choreography
and flawless presentations.

enous rhino. He delivers
his lines with words such as
“collywobbles” and “Cod-
diwomple” with style and
brash delight.
This brings us to Gnua
(Alexandra Blouin). As she
did in Ferndale, playing a
German stewardess, this ac-
tor doesn’t just tear up the
stage, she detonates it. Her
version of the insipid Lesley
Gore song from 1963, “You
Don’t Own Me,” is enough
to make Lesley come back
from the dead and stand
up for herself. Blouin belts
the lyrics and throws her
voluptuous self around the
stage until poor Ruzzante is
practically in a coma of un-
requited love. The Colum-
binas help her in this scene
but really, she doesn’t need
them. It’s her stage and no
one else’s. Gnua is so ador-
ably selfish that it’s hard to
dislike her for the way she
treats her former lover.
“You Don’t Own Me”
and all the other songs that
come from our musical past
work much better in this
play than the original songs
written by members of the
cast and the band. It’s not
that the new songs aren’t
great, they are, but they are
a harder sell in this fast-
paced production. It may
take several hearings to re-
ally grok them. Songs that
the audience knows reso-
nate and fit in more deeply
because the audience has
heard them before, many
times. “Partisan” by Leon-
ard Cohen is an example. It
works perfectly in the script
and was sung so well by
band member Tim Randles.
All of the band members
(Marla Joy, Randles, Mike
Labolle, and Jeff Kelley)
were excellent, as always,
adding depth and excite-
ment to the production.

chael Fields bring a true
spirit of Commedia to the
stage as Pantalone and
Granfa. It doesn’t matter a
bit that Forrest tells one of
the world’s oldest stories in
vaudeville; he sells it and
the audience loves him.
Fields still has his moves
and for his brief appear-
ance, owns the stage.
Another friend told me
that she goes to the first
and last performance of the
Dell’Arte big summer play.
In the interim, the play
has changed and grown.
The sound problems of the
first performance should be
fixed by the time you read
this review. Pacing issues
may be ironed out as well.
Go and see this produc-
tion, sing along, but take
your sensibilities about war
with you and don’t expect it
to be all comedy. It won’t be
and that’s what is so terrif-
ic about Ruzzante. It’s one
of the most heartfelt of the
Dell’Arte canon.
That means a lot to us.
Thank you.

when we can.
We are always
amazed at the
changes we see
when sensitive
dogs are in a quieter envi-
ronment or boisterous dogs
have more training and ac-
tivities to engage them. Our
foster families are true life-
savers in these situations.
Fosters always have the first
opportunity to adopt the
dogs should they choose to
do so, but often they are fos-
tering because they are not
able to make the commit-
ment to adopt due to time
constraints, school, season-
al employment or already
having other pets.
Our goal is always to
about that than you might
expect. These two featured
today are with fosters that
need to get back to other
obligations. We would like
to find them permanent
homes so that they don’t
need to be moved yet again.
Maxx has been with Red-
wood Pals for a while. His
fosters love him but work
as firefighters and need to
be available on short notice
as we get into fire season.
Maxx is a young adult male
mixed bred mutt, possibly
lab, cattle dog and/or Pit
mix . He is about 55 pounds
with a beautiful dark brin-
dle coat. Maxx is a great
companion for jogging, hik-
ing or lounging around the
house or yard. He has been
tle too interesting.
Maxx is neutered, cur-
rent on vaccinations and
can be microchipped at
adoption. If you are looking
for that perfect companion
for all of your summer activ-
ities, Maxx is your guy!
Junebug is a young fe-
male border collie. This dog
was terrified in the shelter!
She has sensitive hearing
and the noise at the shelter
was just too much for her.
Outside of the shelter and in
a home she is a completely
different dog, as you can see
in the before and after pho-
tos. This is a sweet, affec-
tionate dog who loves giving
kisses, cuddling and rolling
in the grass. She is a little
shy on meeting new people

trained and does well with a
crate, even choosing to relax
in the crate at times when
she does not need to be in it.
She is new to leashes and
obedience training but is
proving to be a quick learn-
er. Junebug is a perfect ex-
ample of a dog that was a to-
tal fail at the shelter, but will
make a fabulous family dog.
She was reported to be re-
active to cats at the shelter,
but her foster reports that
she has paid no attention to
a neighbor cat that came in
the yard. We would want to
check compatibility for any
potential adopter with cats.
All of our dogs are al-
tered, current on vaccina-
tions and can be micro-
chipped at adoption. If you

these or learn more about
fostering, please contact us
