Agtang, whose dad was Ilocano, a Filipino ethnic group, and whose mother was Mexican, said that be- fore the strike, "the growers would pit Filipinos against Mexicans, saying the other group was working harder, so there was always this kind of competitiveness." By 1966, Filipinos and Mexicans had formed the still-powerful United Farm Workers. The table grape strike succeeded where oth- ers had failed when Chavez, who led a well-publicized march from Delano to Sac- ramento in the spring of 1966, came up with a stroke of genius - the 1968-1970 grape boycott that spread worldwide. "It showed powerless people they could do some- thing," said Philip Martin, professor of agricultural and resource economics at the University of Califor- nia, Davis. "It is considered one of the most successful union boycotts ever - 12 per- cent of Americans said they avoided eating grapes dur- ing the boycott, and by 1970, most major grape growers had UFW contracts." The workers also won medical and retirement benefits as well as laws ban- ning the use of pesticides that cause skin disorders and other maladies, Ag- tang said. Before she drove to Delano, Agtang stopped at the bronze Cesar Chavez memorial across from Sac- ramento City Hall depicting Chavez leading two dozen protesters on a march for justice. One of them is a 13-year-old girl. "That's me on the statue," Agtang said proudly, "and I'm not even dead yet." Strike FROM PAGE 1 Save a life. Don't Drive HoMe buzzeD.

By Lindsey Bahr TheAssociatedPress LOS ANGELES Summer blockbusters gave way to the small and highly targeted over a sleepy Labor Day weekend at the box office, with notable performances from the faith-based "War Room" and the Spanish lan- guagecartoon"UnGallocon Muchos Huevos." Sony's"WarRoom"fought its way to first place in its second weekend in release, earning $12.6 million across the four-day holiday week- end, according to Rentrak estimates on Monday. The micro-budget family drama, which cost only $3.5 mil- lion to produce, has grossed $27.9 million to date. Financial success for faith-based films is not ex- actly a surprise at this point, but"WarRoom's"impressive hold from its opening week- end is significant. Paul Dergarabedian, Ren- trak's senior media analyst, attributes "War Room's" second weekend success to heightened awareness after it nearly usurped "Straight Outta Compton" last week- end. Also, word of mouth is strong for "War Room." Der- garabedian said according to exit polling, 75 percent of theaudiencesaidtheywould definitely recommend the movie — a substantial and interesting contrast to the dismal critical reception for the film. "It's just a great story of a film that really filled a void in the marketplace, with a message that the audience could really get behind," he said. New release "A Walk in the Woods," debuted in third place, behind previ- ous champ "Straight Outta Compton," with $10.5 mil- lion from 1,960 screens. The buddy dramedy based on Bill Bryson's memoir star- ring Robert Redford and Nick Nolte cost a reported $8 million to make and has taken in $12.2 million since its Wednesday opening. Theactionpic"TheTrans- porter Refueled," mean- while, opened in fifth with a lackluster $9 million from over 3,400 screens. Costing only $21 million to produce, this franchise outing subbed in a relatively unknown ac- tor, Ed Skrein, for star Jason Statham, who had helped the previous three films suc- ceed. Dergarabedian said while both films will likely per- form decently in theaters, their VOD earning potential is great. "Both of those movies will end up being profitable on the small screen down the road," he said. But, it was Pantelion's Spanish-language animated film "Un Gallo con Muchos Huevos," that truly stood out among the pack, tak- ing in $4.4 million from just 395 locations over the four- day weekend.

DEATH NOTICES The Associated Press LA CANADA-FLINTRIDGE A Los Angeles County firefighter shot and killed his wife — herself a dep- uty with the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Depart- ment who was off duty at the time — and then him- self, officials said Monday. The killing happened Sunday night at the cou- ple's house in the Los An- geles suburb of La Can- ada Flintridge, where their 6-year-old son was home, according to sheriff's Sgt. Carmen Arballo. After the shooting, the firefighter took the boy to his grandparents' home, Arballo said, then drove to a fire department ware- house where he worked about 15 miles away and turned the gun on himself. "Today is a sad day for all public safety personnel in Los Angeles County," county fire Chief Daryl L. Osby said in a written statement. Authorities identified the deputy as Cecilia Ho- schet, 32, who worked at the county jail's inmate re- ception center. She joined the department two years ago, according to the sher- iff's department. The fire- fighter was James M. Taylor, who worked as a paramedic for six years, according to his depart- ment. Sheriff's deputies re- sponded to a 911 call just before 10 p.m. that a woman was screaming in- side the home. There they found Hoschet had been shot and killed. "We lost a wonderful deputy last night," Sher- iff Jim McDonnell said in a written statement that described Hoschet's "pos- itive and helpful approach to her work." The sheriff's depart- ment said it recovered a weapon but was not pub- licly discussing a possible motive. On Monday, a car in the driveway had a child's seat in the rear and on the front seat a parking re- ceipt dated Sunday from Disneyland. The Los Angeles Times reported Monday that de- tectives were investigating the possibility that Taylor used his work radio to tell authorities about his wife's slaying — and that he was going to kill himself. According to a scanner recording reviewed by the newspaper, soon after the 911 call, a man got on an emergency services chan- nel and said responders would find one person dead at the home. "No assailants. You can let them know it's clear," the man continued, before adding that "there's going to be one" more fatality at the fire warehouse in the Pacoima area of Los Ange- les. That is where Taylor's body was found. Sheriff's Deputy Am- ber Smith would not com- ment on the report about the radio call, saying the case was still under inves- tigation. LOS ANGELES Officials: Firefighter kills sheriff's deputy, self The Associated Press SAN FRANCISCO San Francisco is a city rich in history, but its government agencies often do a poor job of preserving it. That's the key finding from a new report com- missioned by the city ad- ministrator's office that found many city agen- cies have no guidelines for what artifacts to keep and what to discard, and it's of- ten left to untrained em- ployees to decide what to do with old items. The artifacts that are kept are often not well-pre- served or cataloged, and they're rarely put on dis- play for the public to see, the San Francisco Chroni- cle reported Monday. "It's one of the most his- toric and known cities in the world," said Ken Maley, a consultant who pre- pared the report for about $9,000. "But we are losing stuff right and left." There are treasures from the city's two World's Fairs, works by local art- ists, and maps and docu- ments dating back to the 1800s. And plenty of these valuable relics are hidden from view or have simply vanished, Maley found. The city administrator's office will use the report as a "good first start" to im- prove the way city agen- cies handle historic arti- facts, said project man- ager John Gavin.
