Moves to Ottawa
NEW DENVER, B.C.—An R.C.
M.P. official who is well-known
and popular among Slocan valley
evacuees, Corp. Farrar, left New
Denver for a new post at Ottawa
headquarters, Aug. 14.
He was transferred here from

tor the east, Corp. Farrar ex
pressed appreciation for the co
operation of the evacuees, which
made his job pleasant.
The New Denver post left va

filled by Mr. McKernan, an R.C.
M.P. official who has been transfererd from a Grand Forks post.

question to some. Perhaps it has
more than a passing interest to
fh-w. The question is: when
will the government lift the re
striction barring Japanese Cana
dians irom the Pacific coast?

he is satisfactorily resettled in
eastern Canada.
A few will return no doubt, but
it is not likely that British Colum
bia will ever have much more
than 5,000 Japanese Canadians,
and most of them will be scattered
in the interior parts of the prov
ince. Most of those who have been
moved out of B.C. seem to be
taking the attitude that-they know
where they are not wanted.
Taking the above factors into
account, this writer believes that
the exclusion will be lifted sometime in 1947, and it's hard to say
about when.
*
Another matter which has bearing on the question of return to
the coast has to do with proper
ties. The government, through the
Custodian, has arbitrarily liqui
dated properties belonging to
people of Japanese race, and this
action is being challenged through
the courts. If the sales are de
dared ultra vires, the original
owners of the property may oe
able to reclaim their properties or
claim damages for losses sustained as result of the forced liquination.
The exclusion order has
lifted as far as the Japanese Canadian veterans are concerned. Gne
Nisei, who served in the South
east Asia Command, is reporter
back in Vancouver. He is Goro
Suzuki, who has intentions o: go
ing hack to fishing. At present ne
is working as longshoreman at
good wages.

Sasaki Wins Tennis
Championship
Ont.—Finding that wages tor bush
work in northern Ontario are bel
ter than their original expecta
tions, evacuees in this area are
becoming better satisfied, and are
gradually moving out of the hos
tel to housing provided at various
camps by the Pigeon Timber Com
pany.
Six families, numbering 48 per
sons, recently moved into a new
company-built community at Camp
72, in the neighborhood of Neys.
One person moving with this
group commented: "We are all
glad to get out of this d------ hos
tel. It is no place to stay any
longer than you can help, it.”
Evacuees have moved into other
Pigeon Timber Co.’s camps —
camps 62, 76, I, 7$, 7FA, and 92.
It is reported that net earnings
irom bush work, with no addition
al expense for meals, range from
$170 to $200 per month. Since liv
ing expenses are low, it is not
considered hard for a single per
son to save $120b to $130m in a
year.
About 24 new log houses have
been completed now by the Pigeon
Timber. These measure 20 feet
by 17 feet, and are partitioned into
kitchen and bedroom. Although
it was first understood that rents
for these houses would be $15 per
month, it now appears that the
company is not charging more
than $10.
A steady movement is also con
tinuing from the hostel to east
ern cities and southern Ontario
farms. The present population at
the hostel is about 609, and there
are a number of vacant rooms.
LEMON CREEK. B.C.—Arrangements for the

WINNIPEG, MAN.. AUGUST 24. 1946
The Removal of Controls
The news that the wartime regulation which required
all persons in Canada to carry registration cards has been
abolished is received with welcome. National registration
was adopted in 1940, at a time of national crisis, to assist
in the control of available manpower. The original purpose
for which the regulation was devised has long since been
fulfilled. The fact that registration cards were found.useful
for purposes of identification or for police work are poor
reasons for continuing a system which was not only costly
but was being regarded by a growing number of Canadians
as a symbol of unnecessary interference with personal
liberties.
The abolition of national registration regulations, how
ever, brings but a partial comfort to persons of Japanese
race in Canada, who are still required to carry their Jap
anese registration cards. These registrations were required
under an Order-in-Council passed in the spring of 1941.
The purpose, as explained at that time, was to provide a
means of keeping a check on all persons of Japanese race
and to give them protection—presumably from a charge of
illegal entry into Canada.
Since then, the Japanese registrations have formed the
basis of a drastic system of control and restrictions which
were imposed on one racial group alone.
A whole year has passed since the hostilities ceased, but
the system of control over persons of Japanese race remains
In effect. It is our hope, and belief too, that these controls
will be removed as soon as they become unnecessary. In fact,
since special regulations governing Japanese Canadians are
based on transitional Emergency Powers, we may expect to
see them end automatically with the expiration ‘of the
emergency period, if they are allowed to remain that long.
As much as we would like to be free immediately of
controls that apply to one facial group alone, and as much
as we disagree with its principle, we may as well face the
fact'that the government still has practical reasons for con
tinuing the controls. The* chief reason is that the govern
ment policy of dispersal and resettlement cannot be carried
out without some method of control; and another is the need
of the government to keep a check on the evacuees until the
question of repatriation has been settled.
The great majority of evacuees have shown their willing
ness to co-operate with a reasonable and fairly planned policy
of dispersal. All of us are in accord with the repatriation
plan as long as it is on voluntary basis.
Once the problems of resettlement and repatriation have
been settled, the present restrictions and controls will have
outgrown their usefulness, and we anticipate their complete
abolishment. In the meantime, the government can greatly
encourage the co-operation of the evacuees in the resettle
ment program by dispensing with all unnecessary restric
tions—such as the restriction on free movement of evacuees
east of the Rockies, or the necessity of seeking employment
through the office of a supervisor.
Being Prepared
At a meeting of the Co-operative Committee on Japanese
Canadians held in Toronto on August 15. Mr. Andrew Brewin
gave his report on the Privy Council hearing on an appeal
from the Supreme Court decision regarding Japanese depor
tation orders.
Mr. Brewin wisely refused to make any prediction on the
outcome of the appeal. He did. however, express opinions
and make suggestions which should be carefully noted, par
ticularly by those who are still technically "subject to depor
tation.”
Mr. Brewin stressed that the Privy Council, like the
Supreme Court of Canada, was concerned only with the legal
fact, of whether or not the Canadian government had the
power to pass those orders-in-council under existing statutes.
It was even suggested that the judgment may go against
the appellants, but that an adverse decision of the court was
not to be taken as a justification of the deportation policy
nor as an indication that the deportation is to be carried out.
In any case. Mr. Brewin advised, all persons “subject to
deportation” under the orders should keep in touch .with
legal advisors that Habeas Corpus writs may be issued in
case an attempt at compulsory deportation should be made.
A newsletter issued by the Toronto Defence Committee
expresses an opinion that the government has given up the
idea of forcible deportation regardless of the outcome of the
Privy Council hearing. The New Canadian is inclined to take
the same view. But as long as there is any possibility that
the government may attempt to carry out forcible deporta-

The Question of Assimilation
By SAV.
5 WITH the progress of relocation
’’ and the dispersal of Cana
dians of Japanese origin through
out Canada as an aftermath of the
evacuation, the Niseis have ‘ be
come increasingly conscious of the
problem of "assimilation. Hany
an article, and many a column
have been devoted to such topics
as "Nisei and Assimilation,” "Is
Intermarriage Necessary to As
similation?” or "What Is Assimi
lation?” and have made their ap
pearance in The New Canadian.
Interest in assimilation, however,
does not date from the evacuation.
The best Nisei minds have clashed
in meetings, debates and discus
sions in the search for truth as
well as the "accepted trend of
thought” on the problem during
the Little Tokyo era in pre-war
Vancouver.
Prior to the war, the "problem
of assimilation” stood out like a
sore thumb — accentuated by the
existence of solid blocks of Japa
nese settlements along the Powell
Street, the Fairview, the Kitsilano* Steveston, and smaller set
tlements on the island and along
the coast. Few Isseis or Niseis
lived in an all-hakujin community,
and even those persons maintained
in some way, connection with the
Japanese community.
In the Japanese communities,
the economic factor, which was
chiefly responsible for the exist
ence of the "problem,” held and
coninued to hold a tight grip. It
was a condition taken more or
less for granted by Niseis from
kindergarten to university.
With the evacuation and the
gradual dispersal to points east
of the Rockies, to the cities and
towns of eastern Canada and the
prairies, came the first sharp real
izations to the Niseis of the pe
culiarity and the undesirable feat
ures of his previous environment.
Strange territories opened up be

towns, new communities, and new
peoples. The problem of shifting

Nisei Wins Fellowship
It is always good news when a
Nisei wins recognition as an out
standing Canadian citizen. The
same news is especially good at
this time when the Niseis are
emerging from a particularly try
ing period.
It has been reported that a
Nisei girl. Miss Yachiyo Yone
yama. who used to attend school
in Haney. B.C.. has been offered a
fellowship by the Guggenheim
Foundation. After graduating in
dentistry at the University of Al
berta. she had been working as an
employee of the Alberta govern
ment in the Lamont Health Dis
trict when she was notified of the
honor.
She is the second Japanese Ca
nadian to receive the Guggenheim
fellowship in recent months. The
first was Dr. Shuichi Kusaka, a
graduate of the University of
British Columbia, who has been
connected with the atomic re
search during the war in the
United States.
Examples like these point to
the fact that despite talks of racial
handicaps, more .Niseis are wmning recognition for their enter
prise and talents now than in pre
evacuation days.
environment became a practical
and tangible thing that had to be
tackled as best they 'could. And
so, once again, the voice of. the
Niseis have begun to murmur
across the prairies and out to the
Atlantic coast. They felt they were
coming into grips with the real
ity of "assimilation,” and have
stated so through the medium of
The New Canadian.
THE impression that is gathered
I from these articles and col
umns is that the writers feel the
Niseis are not yet assimilated into
Canadian life, and that if they are
to find acceptance as Canadians,
they must be "assimilated” com
pletely.
There is a second impression.
That the writers are acutely con
scious of the existence of racial
prejudice against them, and that
the very existence of this racial
prejudice is in some way a meas
ure of the lack of assimilation.
It is this writer’s opinion that
the relationship between race prej
udice and the lack of assimilation
as understood by many Nisei writ
ers must be discounted consider
ably, and that the assumption of
noticeable lack of assimilation of
the Niseis bears challenge.
THE question may properly be
* asked: What constitutes as
similation? Webster's Dictionary
defines it as the "act or process
of bringing to a resemblance, con
formity, or identity.” Oxford's dictionary gives a similar definition:
"absorption into the system” or
"to be absorbed.” Both definitions
would seem to suggest that if Nis
eis are to be assimilated, they
must become absorbed into the
flow of Canadian life, in its eco
nomic, social and political aspects.
The question of intermarriage is,
of course, incidental.
Many have expounded theories
of how we should be assimilated.
Taking active part in community
life is one favorite argument. Ac
cept the Christian philosophy is
another. There are countless theo
ries, but "Do as the Romans do”
seems to be the crux of the argu
ment.
But there is one point that they
seem to overlook—that although
Canadians believe in the basic
idea of individual freedom and in
democratic institutions, Canadian
life is not one clear-cut homogene
ous life. It is heterogeneous.
Canada is the Frenchman, the
Englishman, the Irish, the Chi
nese, the Finnish, the Jew, the
German, the Ukrainian, and the
Japanese. It is the Roman Catho
lic. the Presbyterian, the Metho
dist .the Baptist, the Four Square,
the Confuciansism, the Buddhist.
It is the haggis, the salami, the
chop suey. the macaroni, the suki
yaki, the frog's leg. This is Cana da.
To which group of Canadian peo
ples and their customs then are
we to become assimilated? The
English? The French? Or one of
the many minority groups?
The answer is obvious.
’THIS writer holds the belief that
1 the Niseis are already assimi
lated. They are in a similar posi
tion as other groups, who. with
various characteristics of their
.own. are also absorbed in the pat
tern of a greater Canadian life.
The Niseis are an integral part
of Canada. They fit into the pat
tern.
The evacuation has brought new
problems of adjustment, but these
problems are, superficial ones:.

The Removal of Controls
The news that the wartime regulation which required
all persons in Canada to carry registration cards has been
abolished is received with welcome. National registration
was adopted in 1940, at a time of national crisis, to assist
in the control of available manpower. The original purpose
for which the regulation was devised has long since been
fulfilled. The fact that registration cards were found.useful
for purposes of identification or for police work are poor
reasons for continuing a system which was not only costly
but was being regarded by a growing number of Canadians
as a symbol of unnecessary interference with personal
liberties.
The abolition of national registration regulations, how
ever, brings but a partial comfort to persons of Japanese
race in Canada, who are still required to carry their Jap
anese registration cards. These registrations were required
under an Order-in-Council passed in the spring of 1941.
The purpose, as explained at that time, was to provide a
means of keeping a check on all persons of Japanese race
and to give them protection—presumably from a charge of
illegal entry into Canada.
Since then, the Japanese registrations have formed the
basis of a drastic system of control and restrictions which
were imposed on one racial group alone.
A whole year has passed since the hostilities ceased, but
the system of control over persons of Japanese race remains
In effect. It is our hope, and belief too, that these controls
will be removed as soon as they become unnecessary. In fact,
since special regulations governing Japanese Canadians are
based on transitional Emergency Powers, we may expect to
see them end automatically with the expiration ‘of the
emergency period, if they are allowed to remain that long.
As much as we would like to be free immediately of
controls that apply to one facial group alone, and as much
as we disagree with its principle, we may as well face the
fact'that the government still has practical reasons for con
tinuing the controls. The* chief reason is that the govern
ment policy of dispersal and resettlement cannot be carried
out without some method of control; and another is the need
of the government to keep a check on the evacuees until the
question of repatriation has been settled.
The great majority of evacuees have shown their willing
ness to co-operate with a reasonable and fairly planned policy
of dispersal. All of us are in accord with the repatriation
plan as long as it is on voluntary basis.
Once the problems of resettlement and repatriation have
been settled, the present restrictions and controls will have
outgrown their usefulness, and we anticipate their complete
abolishment. In the meantime, the government can greatly
encourage the co-operation of the evacuees in the resettle
ment program by dispensing with all unnecessary restric
tions—such as the restriction on free movement of evacuees
east of the Rockies, or the necessity of seeking employment
through the office of a supervisor.
Being Prepared
At a meeting of the Co-operative Committee on Japanese
Canadians held in Toronto on August 15. Mr. Andrew Brewin
gave his report on the Privy Council hearing on an appeal
from the Supreme Court decision regarding Japanese depor
tation orders.
Mr. Brewin wisely refused to make any prediction on the
outcome of the appeal. He did. however, express opinions
and make suggestions which should be carefully noted, par
ticularly by those who are still technically "subject to depor
tation.”
Mr. Brewin stressed that the Privy Council, like the
Supreme Court of Canada, was concerned only with the legal
fact, of whether or not the Canadian government had the
power to pass those orders-in-council under existing statutes.
It was even suggested that the judgment may go against
the appellants, but that an adverse decision of the court was
not to be taken as a justification of the deportation policy
nor as an indication that the deportation is to be carried out.
In any case. Mr. Brewin advised, all persons “subject to
deportation” under the orders should keep in touch .with
legal advisors that Habeas Corpus writs may be issued in
case an attempt at compulsory deportation should be made.
A newsletter issued by the Toronto Defence Committee
expresses an opinion that the government has given up the
idea of forcible deportation regardless of the outcome of the
Privy Council hearing. The New Canadian is inclined to take
the same view. But as long as there is any possibility that
the government may attempt to carry out forcible deporta-

The Question of Assimilation
By SAV.
5 WITH the progress of relocation
’’ and the dispersal of Cana
dians of Japanese origin through
out Canada as an aftermath of the
evacuation, the Niseis have ‘ be
come increasingly conscious of the
problem of "assimilation. Hany
an article, and many a column
have been devoted to such topics
as "Nisei and Assimilation,” "Is
Intermarriage Necessary to As
similation?” or "What Is Assimi
lation?” and have made their ap
pearance in The New Canadian.
Interest in assimilation, however,
does not date from the evacuation.
The best Nisei minds have clashed
in meetings, debates and discus
sions in the search for truth as
well as the "accepted trend of
thought” on the problem during
the Little Tokyo era in pre-war
Vancouver.
Prior to the war, the "problem
of assimilation” stood out like a

and even those persons maintained

Contemplation of a Gray Dawn
as if I’m always taking
at my fellow columnists
^
NC but here 1 go. This
p r am taking exception to the
-'Gray Dawn on Another
mv" in TMK’s well-written Hello
There series.
n 5eems a great pity that one
r- rw leading Nisei columnists of
^sevaluation days has descend.; m the self-pitying level that so
manv of us cling to. It is only
hr-nan for us of Japanese origin
in Canada to feel the sting of the
nriv sharp wounds of the years
’Tom the evacuation of 1942 to this
dav. But is it of any use to go
about re-opening these wounds,
baring the cuts anew for more
re-examining and more pain as so
roam-’ of our embittered Nisei in
sist on doing?
When I was a high school senior
in Vancouver and just cutting my
teeth on the doctrine of the then
vital and alive New Canadian.
TH K's columns were a revelation
to me. In the small narrow Jap
anese society in which I lived
there were no voices who dared
to cry out so courageously against
the hidebound confines of oldcountry Japanese thinking regard
ing the morals and the living
ways of the growing Nisei. Thus
TMK seemed one of the symbols
of the new Canadian thinking that
we hungered for.
But the events of the past year
have taken their toll. Many of the
older Nisei once looked up to as
the leaders of the ever-increasing
young Nisei group .have succumb
ed to shattered illusions and bit
terness. And judging from the de
fensive destructive tone of some
of her recent columns, so, sadly,
has TMK.
Gray Dawn on Another Day . . .
it is indeed true that the third
epoch of the evacuation-reloca
tion history is drawing near. The
frenzied cleaning up of the thou
sands of remnants in the B.C.
centres have started wholesale
dumping of Japanese into hastily
converted military camps of dif
ferent types. From here on dis
persal of a sort in a hurry. But
does it have to be such a gray
dawn?
N E.W
repatriated few and those in postwar Japan.
Of what interest are those con
ditions in Japan to us except for
purely academic reasons? Are
not the problems of the Nisei
making a new start into Canadian
society the vitally important ones?
Must the bitter complaints over
the injustices that have been rail
ed against time and time again
take precedence over the difficult
questions of readjustment of
ghost town minds into wider
spheres? Or attempts of true
assimilation
into non-Japanese
society ?
How long ago was it that the
editorial columns of The New
Canadian offered something con
structive toward the future of the
Nisei in Canada? Nisei who are
not huddled miserably in the ghost
towns still sitting on the fence
about repat or those who do not
want a free trip across the Pacific
at the government’s expense?
Most of us are ever-conscious
of the trials that the evacuation
brought on us. Perhaps they will
never truly fade. We also should
be mulling over the mistakes WE
made that brought such an event
to pass. Shouldn’t that experience
teach us a lesson that while it can
happen again, we should do all in
our power to prevent it?
Turning those hurts over and
over in our minds will undoubtedly
help us a great deal in maintain
ing sane constructive approaches
to our future problems in our rela
tions with other Canadians.
You see. TMK, I know I’m free.
I served in the Canadian Army
but on my discharge I was given
a letter from Ottawa telling me
that I was to be issued my Jap
anese registration card again. Yes,
that lovely white one with the
portrait and the thumbprint. The
fact that both the military authori
ties and the RCMP were apolo
getic about it did not help erase
the sting. I find too that I am
bound again by those same re
strictions about moving from
place to place or crossing inter

her doubtful treatment of her

more advantages and hopes of a

more than we can expect in most
other spots in this fear-filled

pitched a 13-strikeout one-hit game
in the last Rookie-PBBussie en
counter. was badly off form.
Touched for nine hits, nine runs,
he was relieved by Tak Katakami
in the sixth inning. After walking
four men Tak settled down to
safe, steady pitching, allowing but
two hits. But three of the four
walks scored, /thereby clinching
the game for the Rookies.
Rookies played well, both offen
sively and defensively; they col
lected eleven hits while they com
mitted only three errors to the
PBB’s six. Heavy sluggers J. Na
kamura and Y. Hikida displayed
fine form, knocking the pill for
two singles and a triple, and a
double and two triples respective
ly. Tak Katakami knocked a lone
triple for the PBB’s,

genial Rookie Ken Sugimura, sub

TAYLOR LAKE NISEIS COP TROPHY
IN CARIBOO SOFTBALL LEAGUE
TAYLOR LAC!, B.C. — Taylor
Lake is in the spotlights today as
they wallow in their newly ac
claimed title of Cariboo Softball
Champions, after defeating the
powerful team from Bridge Lake
twice on their own grounds to the
score of 10-3 and 19-9, making a
four straight win in the four out
of seven series.
The inter-Cariboo League organ
ized for the first time this season
consisted of all-occidental teams
from Bridge Lake, Forest Grove,
Lone Butte, and the pulp cutting
Niseis from Taylor Lake. The
ultimate goal of these teams being
the championship cup donated by
Mr. H. M. Lewis, manager of Sorg
Pulp Co.. Port Mellon. B.C. A very
high and keen competitive spirit
was displayed throughout the
season by both players and fans
alike.
The Niseis made a successful
start early in June by beating
Lone Butte in their incipient
league game, and suffering but
two losses in all the games played.
The first loss occurred on their
initial encounter with the highly
reputed Bridge Lake nine. The
unexpected aggressiveness dis
played by Bridge Lake players,
and especially the fast throwing
pitcher, took our boys by such a
surprise that they were unable to
curb the onslaught in the 5th and
6th innings. The second loss took
place a few weeks later as the
Taylor Lakers again met Lone
Butte, negligence and over-confi
dence being the sole reasons for
an unnecessary' defeat. However,
through determination and con
sistent practice, they were able
to handle the remaining gai$es in
a much more successful manner.
In the semis, Taylor Lake over
whelmed Lone Butte with two
wins carrying them straight into
the finals. The first two games
were played on Aug. 4 on Bridge
Lake diamond where the Niseis
surpassed everyone’s expectation
by swamping Bridge Lake twice
to the tune of 11-7 and 14-9 re
spectively. Later, the lads finish
ed the season with a double-head
ed victory giving them the right
fully earned honor and title.
Here is the line-up of the team:
Behind the plate we have that
versatile catcher-captain, Tak Ku
mamoto, whose superb ability is
equalled only by his vocal en
couragements. In the pitcher’s
box. Frank Takagi carried the
banner most of the way, exhibit
ing perfect control and endurance.
Also sharing the mound with him
are pinch-hitting Johnny Kariya
and ‘‘sucker-ball-’ artist Terry
Murakami.
Sober J'iro Kosaka
guarded first base with an excep
tionally cool efficiency which in
spired the team with that much
needed confidence. George Kadohama on second proved himself as
a silent but deadly threat. Tricky
third sacker Torn Kosaka created
much confusion and anxiety to
the opponents with clever antics.
Rounding up this solid and in
vulnerable infield we have holding
the short stop position faithfully,
Teddy Kadohama . . . mustache
and all.' In the outfield there’s
outstanding personalities such as,
ever-deperidable Kaz Kadohama,
Tad Matsumoto, whose perform
ance at bat and field caused many
a low whistle of amazement and
admiration from the fans. Com
petent Tosh Nagai completed the

pitched a 13-strikeout one-hit game

counter. was badly off form.
Touched for nine hits, nine runs,
he was relieved by Tak Katakami
in the sixth inning. After walking
four men Tak settled down to
safe, steady pitching, allowing but
two hits. But three of the four
walks scored, /thereby clinching
the game for the Rookies.
Rookies played well, both offen
sively and defensively; they col
lected eleven hits while they com
mitted only three errors to the
PBB’s six. Heavy sluggers J. Na
kamura and Y. Hikida displayed
fine form, knocking the pill for
two singles and a triple, and a
double and two triples respective
ly. Tak Katakami knocked a lone
triple for the PBB’s,

genial Rookie Ken Sugimura, sub

TAYLOR LAKE NISEIS COP TROPHY
IN CARIBOO SOFTBALL LEAGUE
TAYLOR LAC!, B.C. — Taylor
Lake is in the spotlights today as
they wallow in their newly ac
claimed title of Cariboo Softball
Champions, after defeating the
powerful team from Bridge Lake
twice on their own grounds to the
score of 10-3 and 19-9, making a
four straight win in the four out
of seven series.
The inter-Cariboo League organ
ized for the first time this season
consisted of all-occidental teams
from Bridge Lake, Forest Grove,
Lone Butte, and the pulp cutting
Niseis from Taylor Lake. The
ultimate goal of these teams being
the championship cup donated by
Mr. H. M. Lewis, manager of Sorg
Pulp Co.. Port Mellon. B.C. A very
high and keen competitive spirit
was displayed throughout the
season by both players and fans
alike.
The Niseis made a successful
start early in June by beating
Lone Butte in their incipient
league game, and suffering but
two losses in all the games played.
The first loss occurred on their
initial encounter with the highly
reputed Bridge Lake nine. The
unexpected aggressiveness dis
played by Bridge Lake players,
and especially the fast throwing
pitcher, took our boys by such a
surprise that they were unable to
curb the onslaught in the 5th and
6th innings. The second loss took
place a few weeks later as the
Taylor Lakers again met Lone
Butte, negligence and over-confi
dence being the sole reasons for
an unnecessary' defeat. However,
through determination and con
sistent practice, they were able
to handle the remaining gai$es in
a much more successful manner.
In the semis, Taylor Lake over
whelmed Lone Butte with two
wins carrying them straight into
the finals. The first two games
were played on Aug. 4 on Bridge
Lake diamond where the Niseis
surpassed everyone’s expectation
by swamping Bridge Lake twice
to the tune of 11-7 and 14-9 re
spectively. Later, the lads finish
ed the season with a double-head
ed victory giving them the right
fully earned honor and title.
Here is the line-up of the team:
Behind the plate we have that
versatile catcher-captain, Tak Ku
mamoto, whose superb ability is
equalled only by his vocal en
couragements. In the pitcher’s
box. Frank Takagi carried the
banner most of the way, exhibit
ing perfect control and endurance.
Also sharing the mound with him
are pinch-hitting Johnny Kariya
and ‘‘sucker-ball-’ artist Terry
Murakami.
Sober J'iro Kosaka
guarded first base with an excep
tionally cool efficiency which in
spired the team with that much
needed confidence. George Kadohama on second proved himself as
a silent but deadly threat. Tricky
third sacker Torn Kosaka created
much confusion and anxiety to
the opponents with clever antics.
Rounding up this solid and in
vulnerable infield we have holding
the short stop position faithfully,
Teddy Kadohama . . . mustache
and all.' In the outfield there’s
outstanding personalities such as,
ever-deperidable Kaz Kadohama,
Tad Matsumoto, whose perform
ance at bat and field caused many
a low whistle of amazement and
admiration from the fans. Com
