Elizabeth Youngman-Westphal Special to The Village News As one day folds into the next, we continue to explore the various neighborhoods in the 7th arrondissement. Today, Oct. 18, we board the #63 south to the St. Germain des pres Church bus stop. Heading toward the front steps of the cathedral, we are stopped by a guard. He explains that today the church is closed for Frank Alamo’s funeral. Who? When we get back tonight, I look up his bio. It turns out, Frank had some success as a pop singer from 1960-1965, but in ’65, he re...

Joe Naiman Village News Reporter Fallbrook High School head field hockey coach Debbie Berg and her players would have preferred a win rather than a loss in the CIF Division I championship game Nov. 12 at La Costa Canyon High School, when Valley Center won the championship with a 2-1 victory over the Warriors, but for Berg and her players a loss in the final is preferable to a loss in the Division I quarterfinals which is what happened with the Warriors last year. “Good progress,” Berg said.
