DUCK CALL: Disneyland President Jack Lindquist has invited 1,075 of his closest friends to see the first intrasquad game of the Mighty Ducks on Sept. 15 at the Anaheim Arena--members of Westcot 2000. That’s the community group Walt Disney Co. formed to show support for the park’s proposed $3-billion expansion. . . . “It’s going to be kind of a celebration (for) a job well done,” says one spokesman. The 17,250-seat arena likely will be filled: Disneyland employees and their families are invited too.

ABC’S OF 3-D: Adult classes in Orange County cover everything from yoga to sailing (OC Live!). Among the offerings at UC Irvine Extension this fall: a workshop on holograms. . . . It will be taught by Eric Van Hamersveld, whose credits include the world’s largest holograms--at Epcot Center in Florida--and the only actual hologram in all of Disneyland (on the Pinocchio ride). “It’s a hands-on workshop,” Van Hamersveld said. “We turn off the lights and make holograms.”

WRITING MALE: Lemon Heights author Maralys Wills didn’t find publisher interest in her Orange County-set techno-thriller “Scatterpath”--about airline sabotage--until she gave it a “masculizing” edit (E1). “I hope this stigma against female authors will someday vanish,” she says. “But men do write tougher and more abbreviated; they’re not as romantic. I tried to make this sound as masculine as I could.” But to hedge her bets, she submitted it as “M.K. Wills.”

STERN LECTURE: If you wanted to read a whole book about bigmouth deejay Howard Stern, there’s a new paperback called “Howard Stern Big Mouth.” Interestingly, author Jeff Menell writes that the long-running feud between Stern and Ira Zimmerman of the National Stuttering Project is over, with Zimmerman now “a big Stern fan.” Wrong, says Zimmerman, a San Juan Capistrano resident, who complains about Stern’s habit of belittling people who stutter: “I hate Stern and what he stands for. He’s an exploiter of the tragedies people have.”
