Groups Approve New Gov’t
Anti-Bias Law in Employment
OTTAWA — Spokesmen for 17 groups representing about
1,000,000 Canadians appeared before the House of Commons indus­
trial relations committee last week to voice approval of the Canadian
government’s anti-discrimination bill.
The* bill has received second
reading—approval in principle— outlaws discrimination in job ad­

Fort William Nisei Have Activities Other Than
Bowling, Students Club Holds Variety of Affairs
By J. M.
FORT
WILLIAM,
Ont. —
Letters received by members of
the Lakehead Nisei Students
Club ask “Is Fort William a city
where they have nothing to talk
about except bowling ?” This isn t
so, however, for although the
population of Japanese Canadians
in Fort William is small (314 in
1951 census—Ed.), bowling isn’t
the only news.
The Students’ Club which has
up to 30 members, meets twice a
month. At these gatherings,
members play basketball, ping
pong and badminton, with one
date used for a general meeting.
Guest speakers are sometimes
invited to speak to the group.

On April 25, the girls of the
club gave Miss Shizue Togawa a
going away party. A graduate of
Fort William Collegiate and a
student at Lakehead Tech, she
left for Kingston to continue her
studies as lab technician at one
of the hospitals in that city.
Among the many activities
planned for May are the ping

Cocktails for Prince
Stirs Japan Protest
TOKYO — The Japanese tem­
perance society has protested to
Emperor Hirohito because his
son, Crown Prince Akihito, 19,
had been reported sipping cock­
tails on his current world trip.
A solemn delegation of five left
a note at’ the palace saying Aki­
hito was openly revolting against
the Japanese law which forbids
alcohol to minors.
Akihito officially came of age
at 18—two years earlier than re­
quired by law.
