The sheer weight of the Tony's pie let me know I was in for something spe- cial. The ample toppings completely masked the cheese below, even after cooking. But one bite and you can tell there is plenty of cheese atop a fresh, flaky crust. If you're a sauce fan, ask for extra sauce because this pizza was a bit light in that department — just the way I like it, but it's not for everyone. No doubt about it, Tony's takes the take and bake cake with the better crust, cheese and top- pings.

SCAM Continued from page 1A 10, the U.S. Postal Service issued warnings on what to look for to avoid getting scammed. "If you don't partici- pate, you won't be a vic- tim," Fitch said. He answered questions and handed out informa- tive DVDs and brochures Friday. One Red Bluff man brought in a handful of mail that he'd received that he believed were scams. Fitch offered to take them back to his office for further research. For the scammers, these tricks are their jobs, he said. However, the postal service has thousands of fraud detectives through- out the U.S. that try to stop them. The scammers are not allowed to use the U.S. mail as part of their schemes, Fitch said. If convicted, they could serve up to 20 years in prison, depending on the extent of the crime. The problem is trying to find out where the scammers are and what they are actually doing, he said. Some use counterfeit postage stamp machines. Others use real business names and bank account numbers to trick people. Some even use legitimate- Reception today for students Two Maywood Middle School sixth-graders will be among featured artists at a reception for Tehama Coun- ty Art Council Student Art Contest winners at 2 p.m. Saturday at the State Theatre, 333 Oak St., in Red Bluff. Lauren Price, daughter of Loretta and Warren Price, took First Place in Division III and Yamilet Rosas, daughter of Rosa and Gabino Rosas, received Honor- able Mention. The contest had 378 entries interpreting this year's "Under the Sea" theme. Winners will receive their prize at the reception and their work will be professionally matted by and hung from March 26-April 8, at The Big Picture Gallery, 857 Washington St., and the Assembly Room at the Tehama County Department of Education, 1135 Lin- coln St., from April 16-May 11. In connection with the student art reception, Mis- soula Children's Theatre will be presenting "The Little Mermaid", a musical production featuring about 50 local students. Show times will be at 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. Tickets are available at the State Theatre Box Office. For more information call 527-1874. looking letters that claim to be from the govern- ment. Job hunters are also tar- geted when scammers try to take information from them for pseudo-applica- tions or offer them jobs repackaging stolen items or items bought with stolen credit cards. Sometimes, the scam- mers involve the victim who may unknowingly commit a crime by follow- ing the scammer's direc- tions, Fitch said. "They get left holding the bag with a mess in their bank accounts," he said. Then, after someone has fallen for a scam, other criminals swoop in to fraudulently offer "help" to the victims to get their money back, he said. People are put on a "suckers list" and become targets for other scammers who trade names and information. Fitch has seen some individuals lose up to $40,000 or more by falling for scams, he said. The most important thing is to not get involved, Fitch said. Scammers often target seniors, but any age group can become victims. Anyone who feels they have been a victim of fraud or mail scams may call a 24-hour hotline, 1- 877-876-2455.

Donations to The district has been told that any power poles in the easement of the levee will need to be moved about five feet, which would cost about $50,000 a pole, Murphy said. There are 10 high- voltage power poles that could be affected. "To do a reasonable job, we ought to spend the district money like it's our own," said board member Shan Patterson. "I don't want to move the power poles." The poles don't belong to the district, so Murphy contacted PG&E about the problem, Murphy said.

Top- pings are plentiful and of good quality, making Raley's a top-notch super- market offering. Mill Creek has long been known to serve a good selection of home style cooking, but it was a surprise to find out the restaurant is as popular for its pizza. Choose your top- pings, enjoy some friendly conversation and before you know it a piping hot pie is before you. Mill Creek's fresh, ample pizza is quite fla- vorful, with something of a buttery taste to the crust — at least that's the clos- est we could come to iden- tifying the secret ingredi- ent. Never mind, it made the pie one of the tastier ones in Munch Madness. Topping were of good quality and the balance of sauce, cheese and crust just right. Raley's proves you can take the pizza out of the pizzeria, but Mill Creek makes a statement that you can take the pizzeria out of the pizza and still be left with a fine pie. Mill Creek takes this round — worth the trip, especially if you're look- ing for pizza but will be dining with those who crave something else.

"It's a major change," Murphy said. "We're try- ing lessen the blow on some of these folks. There were some stiff penalties for being late and we're trying to make it more fair." Instead of a 10 percent late penalty, plus a half percent fee per month if not paid, the district will charge a flat $5 fee, Mur- phy said.
