Eighty-One Judoists Across Canada Awarded Promotions
Yamada Studio Captures Sunday League Crown
As Bussei Bow Out in Second Game of Finals
Capturing the Toronto Nisei
Sunday Baseball League crown
was Yamada Studio last Sunday,
Oct. 4 as they defeated their con­
tender, Bussei, 10 to 7 to conclude
the best-of-three finals. The Stu­
dio men took the series in two
games straight as they had taken
the first game of the finals play­
ed the previous week 6-1.

Yamada Studio started off with
a bang in the first inning of
Sunday’s game. Mack Oikawa
smashed out a grand slammer to
commence the slaughter, and still
with none out, Yamadas again
loaded the bases to knock out
Mas Tsuruoka from the mound.
Muts Kinoshita then took over
the hurling job, but three runs
were scored on a sacrifice by Joe
Nishimura and a single by S.
Nishimura, To complete the on­
slaught, J. Morita packed another
walloping homer for two more

‘‘The.Monitor is must read­
ing for
straight-thinking
people. ...”
“I returned to school after a
lapse of 18 years. I will get
my degree from the college,
but my education comes
from the Monitor. . .
“The Monitor gives me ideas
for my work. . . .”
“I truly enjoy its company. . . .”

Bussei fought back hard scor­
ing four runs off five hits in the
second. Tosh Hori led with a long
triple again in the sixth as Kino­
shita tagged for a two-run hom­
er, but the Bussei rally was halt­
ed there to bring the final score
to 10-7.
Bussei actually out-hit the Stu­
dio men with a total of 12 hits to
eight, with M. Uyeda hitting
three out of four and K. Suyama
two out of five, but the big blows
by Mack Oikawa and J. Morita
were too great as Bussei for the
second time bowed to the champ­
ions, Yamada Studio.

With the conclusion of the 1953
Nisei Sunday baseball season, a
presentation dance is being- plan­
ned for the near future, at which
awards will be presented to the
league champions, the playoff
champion, the.. player with the
highest batting average and the
most valuable player. Further de­
tails will appear in due time.

TOKYO. — Two Honolulu Ni­
sei ballplayers of the Central
League champs the Tokyo Yomiuri Giants were selected as mem­
bers of the all-Japanese baseball
team to play against the Ameri­
can All-Stars-and the New York
Giants coming here.
They are outfielder Wally Yo­
namine and catcher Jun Hirota.
Twenty-four players from both
the Central and Pacific Leagues
were chosen by a special com­
mittee.
The All-Stars, led by Yankee
pitcher Ed Lopat, have been in­
vited by the Mainichi newspaper
while the tour of Leo Durocher’s
New York Giants is being spon­
sored by the Yomiuri Shimbun.

The Lakehead Nisei Bowling
League started its first week of
kegling on Sept. 27 with a big
success. This year the league has
been increased by two teams it
consists of eight squads now in­
stead of the previous six.
Johnny Umakoshi started the
ball rolling by setting a men’s
high triple of 713 while the men’s
