Recent atrocity stories out of
Korea makes one ponder just
how this Nisei POW was treated.
As he himself reports it, the
Communists believed that they
had captured a Japanese national
and they used all the tricks in
the books to force him to confess
this in order that they might
substantiate the allegations they
were making at the time that the
United Nations were using Japa­
nese troops. They couldn’t believe
that he was an American soldier,
even though he could not read,
write or speak Japanese. After
18 months or more of trying to

One thing that he remembers
about his POW camp is that it
wasn’t enclosed by barbed wire as
were the WRA relocation centers
of World War II. The camp was
in North Korea, near the Man­
churian border. It was in a valley
surrounded by mountains.

Just as the 442nd in the public
mind exemplifies the sacrifices
and loyalty of Japanese Ameri­
can troops in World War II, so
Hiroshi Miyamura symbolizes the
continuing devotion of Americans
of Japanese ancestry to the land
of their birth. We Nisei can be
proud of him because he repre­
sents the best in us.
As he returns to his home in
Gallup, to consider plans for the
future, we Nisei want him to
know that our good wishes are
with him and his family. We
stand rea.dy to help him in every
way possible, even as he has
helped us by reminding all Ame­
ricans anew that “Americanism
is a matter of the mind and the
heart,” and not of race or an­
cestry.

TORONTO. -— Victim of a
youthful but vicious pursesnatcher Friday night was Mrs.
Yoshino Kato of 661 Crawford
St., Toronto.
Mrs. Kato said she was on
her way to visit a friend when
she was attacked around 5:30
p.m. on Nov. 27 at Bloor St.
and Pauline Ave. The youth
attacked with such force that
her handbag was ripped and
her umbrella was broken. Her
purse held close to forty dol­
lars, she said.
“My mother screamed, but
she is too old to chase a young
boy like that,” daughter Mar­
garet Kato said. The purse­
snatcher was described to be
about seventeen.

Grand-Daughter of Famous Auth, Lafcadio Hearn
Comes “Home” as Wife of Air Force Lieutenant
MILWAUKEE. — Lonnie Koi­
zumi, 24, came “home” from
Japan, recently, thus turning the
tables on her famous grand­
father, the American writer, Lafcadio Hearn.
Lonnie is Mrs. Gordon C. Bran­
des, wife of Lt. Brandes, 27, of
the U.S. air force. A native of
Milwaukee, Brandes has been in
Japan and Korea for two ano
a half years, a good deal of that
time as a combat pilot.
Hearn was best known for
writing brilliantly and sympathe­
tically about Japan and the ways
of its people. He went there in
1890 and stayed until his death
in 1904 at the age of 54.
After being reared in Ireland,
he went to France and England,
then to America, where he be­
came a New. Orleans newspaper­
man and writer. His trip to Japan
was on a magazine assignment.
.Lonnie is the daughter of the
youngest of Hearn’s three sons,
Kiyoshi Koizumi. (Hearn took
the name of Yakumo Koizumi).
Lonnie’s grandmother Setsu, was
a member of a prominent samurai
family of Japan.
Lonnie’s first real name is Ran­
ko, but since the Japanese pro­
nounce “r” as “1,” she soon
found herself called by her nick­
name.
Her father is one of Japan’s,
best known oil painters and had

Gordon and Lonnie met at the
headquarters of the Far East air
force in Tokyo, where he was a
protocol officer and she was
liaison officer for a Tokyo trad­
ing firm.
The young couple were married
last July.

In an. instant, Nisnii had drop­

surface of the river.
After pulling the Occidental to
safety, Nishii and another fishing’

sinking her before the fire could
wreck the whole craft. But they
failed.

The ill-fated gillnetter quickly
burned to the water line and went
down.

(Continuation)

Abraham Lincoln, a simple honest, man,, turning to his God in his
hour of travail, laying naked before his Creator a tormented soul —
we come face to face with humility and greatness.
And Anne Baxter’s portrait of Melora, just seventeen, trying to
reason unsuccessfully with a passion she can. only sense, side by
side with her picture of the Mistress of Wingate Hall, crying out
passionately against the invaders even as the flames singe her
hair — and the walls of the home she came to as a bride, crumble
around her- Anne Baxter matched the quick changes of mood
with an understanding her screen portrayals have never given her
a chance to show.

It was a memorable experience. I witnessed last night, some­
thing which I had always believed. Acting, great acting comes from
within and has no need for auxiliary props. Tyrone Power Anne
Baxter and Raymond Massey proved it to me.

Countless organizations have come and gone, for

cuously significant to us as the Co-operativve Committee
on Japanese Canadians. Last week, after a decade of
extremely noteworthy existence, the Co-operative Com­
mittee was formally disbanded. Its work was done.
The following excerpt from the afterword of the
pamphlet, “They-Made Democracy Work” by Edith Fowke,
eloquently describes the substantial role played by the
Co-operative Committee on behalf of we citizens of Japa­
nese origin.
“Today the Japanese Canadians are no longer
treated as second-class citizens. The bitterness and
discrimination of the war. and postwar years have
largely disappeared . . . Today, in many Canadian
cities, Japanese Canadians are working in a wide

'Tohn Brown's Body"-An Unforgettable Experience
JEEING “John Brown’s Body” was an unforgettable experience.
Ever since I, as an awkward, inarticulate youngster, pranced
around in self-taught interpretations on a makeshift stage in a
neighbour’s backyard, the theatre has been a compelling interest
with me. And the theatre, if it did not develop in me any great
talent for acting,' did develop a very critical sense of what is and
what 'is not good acting.
When it was announced that Charles Laughton was going to
do another bit of experimental theatre with a hand-picked cast,
naturally I was interested. The reading was to be “John Brown’s
Body” — an epic poem by Stephen Vincent Benet, and the cast was
to include Raymond Massey, Tyrone Power and Anne Baxter. Of
Raymond Massey I had no qualms. But I did have some private
reservations with regard to Tyrone Power and Anne Baxter —
good movie stars, but ...
*
*
*

_
Tyrone Power walked onto the stage, acknowledged his audience,
and proceeded to tell simply and directly that he and his colleagues
were going to present a great American poet’s conception of a
period when the American nation passed from adolescence to man­
hood. He stated briefly his part in the 1’ecital — that of carrying
a part of the narrative and the romantic and younger figures as
they came up in the epic narrative. He then introduced Anne Baxter
who would be responsible for certain narrative passages and for
all the women who have their part to play in the civil war, and
Raymond Massey, whose shoulders were to “carry along the political
and psychological implications” as well as the older characters as
they happened in the great historic event.
The chorus of 22 men and women, he explained, who were
seated a little to the left centre of the stage, would provide the
musical or choral-spoken background, to illustrate, or set the mood,
or even interpret the action.
Then, having set the stage, with only a narrow railing outlined
in red for the props, and three microphones between them and the
footlights, the trio "were left to their own resources — to give a
dramatic recital, -word for word, as Benet wrote it - of that bitter
time in American History.
*
*
*
And then a kind of magic was wrought. Within the bounds of
a single stage, three actors and a chorus, with only three micro­
phones and a railing, painted for me the great human struggle
which pitted Southerners against the Yankee North.,
I saw the little, human people thrust unto action: young Jack
Ellyat, young and untried, and his more cynical, hardened compan­
ion Bailley; young Ellyat’s quiet -father with his evening papers
and his old spectacles; young Ellyat’s mother who felt about war
as only women can; Clay Wingate of Southern Aristocracy, and
his mother, Mary Lou Wingate, mistress of Wingate Hall, hating
the Yankees with their last breath; young Melora, loved by Jack
Ellyat, her young new love flowering swiftly to passionate fruition;
Sally Dupre, half French and half Southerner, as unpredictable as
her background, possessing Clay Wingate with a fierce intensity; old
Cudjo, the white-haired, black-faced manservant of Wingate Hall...
I saw the big people, the men who shaped the destiny of the nation
— Lee the great Southern leader both as a man and as, a soldier;
and Abraham Lincoln who fought for the preservation of the
Union at all costs...
*
*
*
Artistry was the word for the three who brought-Benet’s pano­
rama of people and events to pulsating, throbbing life.
In a voice sensitive as a master’s violin, resonant, modulated
and controlled, and with diction as clear as any I have ever heard,
Tyrone. Power created a series of unforgettable portraits with
dramatic and compelling power. His young Jack Ellyat, troubled
with the physical discomforts of numerous reversals in war; his

Games of Tor. Nisei Hoopsters
f
Last Friday’s tussles of the Toronto Nisei Basketball Association
.were subject to considerable roughness "and rather wild playing
.seldom observed in past performances. It is hoped that such condi­
tions will not prevail in future matches, that more basketball
»instead of flaring tempers will be displayed for spectators and
^fellow-participants alike.

Ten-Pin Bowling this season, S.
Kubota went on a rampage at the
last session to spill a total of
581(207) pins, and right behind

point short at 580(223).
