RICHMOND, Calif. — Soza

quota immigrant admitted under
the 1952 Act to the U.S., volun­

and was sent to Parks Air Force

Since his entry last March, he
has been working in a local nurs­

monstrate his loyalty and admi­
ration for American ideals.
He was residing with his uncle,

Ban on Imported
Japan Shoyu Ends
SAN FRANCISCO, Calif. —
An agreement between Japan and
the U.S. has been reached on the
future importation of Japanese
shoyu sauce and bamboo sprouts
into the U.S. Large shipments
had been held up in San Francis­
co and other ports by customs
officials because it was claimed
that the items were “Chinesetypes” goods and not admissible
under the trading with the enemy
act unless specially cleared by the
U.S. treasury department.
Merchandise valued at several
tens of thousands of dollars were
held up, crippling many import­
ing firms.
Under the new agreement,
Japanese on porters will have to
secure certificates from both the
ministry of international trade
and industry and the ministry of
agriculture that the items to be
sent to the U.S. do not originate
in Red China.

Japanese Movie-Goers
Think Marilyn Silly
TOKYO — A rear view of
actress Marilyn Monroe’s walk
may set some American males
afire, but Japanese movie go­
ers just think it’s funny.
Japanese broke into “spon­
taneous laughter” at a rear­
ward view in a Monroe movie,
the newspaper Tokyo Shimbun
reported today.
The newspaper said in an
editorial Miss Monroe’s walk
was “ridiculous”. It called her
figure okay but thought she
had “low sex appeal.”

Japanese Canadians in Hamilton to Enter Float
’n Coronation Celebration, Plan Odori Dancing
HAMILTON — The Japanese
Canadian community of Hamilton
will enter a float of a typical
Japanese theme on which will ride
a group of Nisei girls dressed in
kimonos and dancing the odori as
part of Hamilton’s Coronation
Day Celebration on June 2.
The budget for the JC commun­
ity’s participation in the pageant
was set at $500, the sum to be
collected by a general canvass.
Representatives of all clubs
and organizations in Hamilton
were assembled at the Buddhist
Church Hall on May 1 to discuss
the participation. The meeting
was called by the Interim Com­
mittee of the Hamilton JCCA at
the request of the Junior Cham­
ber of Commerce and the Canad­
ian National Unity Council to
determine the extent of the JC
role.
A Coronation Celebration Com­
mittee was formed with Richard
Kanno appointed chairman and

Mits Nakashiba acting in liaison
capacity with the C.N.U.C. and
the Junior Chamber of Commerce.
The project will be an all-com­
munity affair. The Young Budd­
hist Society will handle the Japa­
nese costumes and odori group
while the Kyowa Club will take
care of the fund-raising. Ar­
rangements for the float will be
conducted by the Interim Com­
mittee of the Hamilton JCCA anti
Messrs. T. Yoshida, T. Mototsunc
and K. Honda will handle con­
struction.
A second meeting was held on
May 8 to discuss further details.

THE

NEW

DAFRI GIRLS READY
TO START SEASON

No-Hitter Balks Westerns, 2-0
A+ least the "Westerns are consistent.
Last year they were stopped by no-hit no-run hurling at the
rmnds of Milwaukee Sports’ Cliff Lowcock in the opener of the 1952
AVed Toronto Senior Baseball League season. This year’s opener
on May 9 proved to be curiously coincidental since Westerns were
^o-ain blanked and held hitless by the masterful hurling of Rene
Bouchard of West York Motors, losing 2-0.
Perhaps the score-keepers may
have been a bit lenient in this ing blow that just cleared the
instance since Westerns’ Joe barrier and bounced back onto the
Brown had rapped a grass-cutter field. West Yorks got their other
into the hole between first and run when they bunched three sin­
second base in the second frame, gles in the sixth frame. Aki Ha­
the West York second sacker yashi, Westerns left-fielder, end­
bobbling the ball momentarily ed the threat in the sixth when
before firing the pill too late to he threw beautifully to catcher
catch Brown. It looked like a hit Yuki Kameoka to catch the run­
but doubtlessly the benefit of the ner sliding into home plate when
doubt was given to Bouchard it appeared that more damage
since there was no semblance of was forthcoming.
Westerns didn’t threaten at any
a hit thereafter.

basketball this year.
Player-coach Sub Miike handl­

Over 1,400 watched the open­

E. Canada Bowling
Meet This Saturday
Entries are still being ac­
cepted, especially ladies teams,
for the Seventh Eastern Can­
ada Nisei Open Bowling Tourn­
ament slated for Sat., May 16,
at the Olympia Edwards Al­
leys.
About 200 bowlers are ex­
pected to start firing the ball
from 1 p.m. A sum of $42S in
cash prizes as well as the
JCCA Challenge Trophy will be
given to the various winners.
Climax of the day will be the
Presentation Dance at the
Royal York Ballroom with
Stan Patton’s Orchestra pro­
viding the music for dancing
from 9 to 12 p.m. Dress will be
informal.

A new softball club has been
formed this year under the ban­
ner of Dafri Jewellers in the East
Toronto Junior Ladies Softball
League. Coached by Eddy Saki
who is interested in the possibili­
ties of a Japanese Canadians girls
team, the squad consists of both
Occidental and Nisei girls.
The league is operated by a
group of prominent men who are
interested in the cause of a girls’
league. The Dafri girls are hop­
ing to show Torontonians that
they can play the sport as well
as others. They hope to get a lot
of support from fans.
The teenage girls are enthus­
iastic about the game and some
of the girls such as Amy Saki and
Katharine Seo have played the
game year after year, accomp­
lishing* a great deal of athletic
ability. Up and coming players
such as Slay Nagao and Ethel
Tateishi have been trying hard to
play on the team.
In the future, the team hopes
that many other young players
will come and join the squad.
Fans are urged to come out and
support, the team on Monday, May
IS, from 7 p.m. at Coxwell Sta­
dium, Gerrard & Danforth. For
f u r t h e r information, contact
Mickey Kaneko, manager, at OX.
