TAK’S CASE
By JESSE NISHIHATA
Montreal, Que.
The author, Vancouver-born Jesse Nishihata, 24, of Montreal, is currently a
student in third year psychology at Sir George ^ ilHaans College.
An active member of the Montreal Nisei Campus Club, and also a prominent
figure in Montreal Young Buddhist circles, Mr. Nishihata’s literary talent fully merits
being awarded first prize for his endeavour in ’’TAK’S CASE.'’
I
MOT for now the moment deliberated
before, nor the culmination of an
incessant urge, only that the telephone,
of a suddeness, rang clamourously in
the blind-drawn, shadowed room. Again!
The S-figure shape uncoiled and ab
ruptly fumbled with the receiver:
Hello—(a mumbled abstraction).
Hello—(a soft weary voice). Room
714? I’m calling you as requested; it is
now five-fifteen. Is there anything else ?
Yes, ahh. . . there is; could you please
call me back in another half-hour?
All right.
Okay? Thanks. . . (click).
- He fingered the receiver back into
the crib, clunk.
Rummaging his hands through his
hair, he padded to the window and
sprung the blind; through the slats "the
undifferentiated busyness of the city
scurried, screeched, and staggered about.
The sharp, taut November sky was a
pallid backdrop for the etched buildings,
towers, domes. . . and for the skeletal
trees in the square across the way, tlie
air seemed static, though the neoned
signs quivered brilliantly below’. The
phophoresence of decadence. . .
A long distracting yawn uncurled; he
shook his head unconvincingly. His face
bemused, knees slightly bent, he doubled
over to touch his toes. Picking his way
back to the bed, he stretched out with
a cigarette in his mouth. The exhaled
smoke blended evenly with the tenor of
the cramped hotel room; it hung en
folded, suspended on the ceiling. He felt
tired as hell, sodden as week old
laundry. Somehow, the very air seemed
to be pressing, squeezing him; in the
dreamt agony of it, his mind was keen,
clear, intense. The acuteness of the anti
cipation furrowed his brow, tightened his
eyelids. The clenched fists crumpled the
cigarette. He sighed and lit another. . .
His name is Takao Tanaka. Call him
Tak. He’s nineteen, of medium height
(5’ -4”)—weight, 120. Has had no need
to shave . . . yet.
He was wondering why he didn’t tell
Bob that he was leaving; or more im
portant, why he had dropped off seeing
him these past months. He could have
at least left a note, or so. But, that
would have to be rapidly discounted
because Bob -wouldn’t have understood
anyway. Besides, what could have been
written ? Something like — Dear Bob, or
else, Bob, this is it, I’m going, so
long. . . ? Terse, succint, ambiguous —
so vague, -without any sense of imme
diate reality — and as all good intentions
are, empty, void.
Somewhere, they had lost each other.
Utterly. He. . . he had lost something
intangible, and the very fact of losing
had been unrelenting, unforgiving. Need
it have been so final? And yet, because
of it, consciously to Tak, that had been
the greatest moment of his life. . .
Don’t ever think of it again, Tak. I’ve
known all along w’hat you’ve wanted —
what you’ve wanted from me — but
Jesus hell, I don’t want any part of it,
don’t W’ant to get mixed up in it. Cripes,
sure I’ll do anything for you. Haven’t I?
Sure, I’ll try to help you, get you over
the rocks, anything. . . But not this. . .
Bob took the bottle and dowmed half the
pint; his adam’s apple w’orked convuls
ively. He sat rigid, eyes riveted ahead,
stiff-armed, palms flat on the table. And
Tak, he squatted on the floor, pensively,
hugging his knees tighter. The mid
August dusk was musky and humid;
a turn at the park didn’t do too
much, and then they were back in
Bob’s room. The heavy atmosphere
seemed immense; the strained static
before the crackles and the thunder.
And from the meek came the storm, the
tortured turbulence of the unknown;
blurted words quavered from Tak’s
mouth. What did they mean? Ah! Bob,
poor Bob, was he the Mother, the bul
wark, the shelter? Should he have been
the tower of strength, the temple of
hot animal warmness? Should he have
been the giver and then the taker?
Strangely, there was no bitterness after;
the common knowledge of this left an
empty irony. It was cruel! It had to be
said and done with, Bob. . . it just had
to be. . .
II
AND this life-song to be recanted had
started long before its measured beat.
That the union of his father and mother
had brought him out into this world
was true; yet truer still was the fusion
of his father and arrogant egotism.
Debauchery! Oh! Sins of our fathers. . .!
Understandably, Tanaka’s friends had
sent him back to Japan '“for a young
bride, to settle, if not to curb, his wild
excursions and dissipations. She was
able to come in 1932, through some
devious means, this silent, unblushing
young woman, and in the summer of
’33, Takao was born to her.
Still, the father and the husband
heeded not the cares of the son and
the wife, and he continued to satisfy
his wonts, unscathed. During these basal
years, this woman had communicated to
Tak a warm and mystical sensitiveness.
But, if it persisted throughout his life,
in all its vacuity, it was not because
of his mother but because of himself.
When eight, his mother died of tuber
culosis, leaving him alone to face the
evacuation with his father. The outward
life now transferred to the ghost town
in Kootenay Valley was, in all soberness,
the same as the existence in the lumber
camps or the fishing village back on
the coast.
Tak maintained a silent, secretive life,
half of his being unknown. Livings in the
Commission bunkhouses left him apart
from the rowdy fun of the town kids;
he was apart, out, the quiet one. Now,
more than ever, Tanaka came back to
the bunkhouse drunk. His wild gesti
culations and incoherent curses (gottem,
gottem), was an aggravated source of
fright and apprehension to Tak. Some
times he crawled in besides the sacked
figure, crying: Pa! Get up! Pa!—and
then blubbered off to sleep.
It wasn’t until the summer of ’47, a
blistery Toronto summer, in a blistered
house on a worn-out street, that Tak
came to realize his father’s uninhibited
loneliness. And it came with Mrs. Yama
puffing up the final flight of stairs that
led to theii’ one-room home:
Maahhh . . . Takao-san, how big
you’ve grown, neh!
He tried hard to recollect — was it
in Neys? Ghost town? . . . his memory
did not go back too far. He grinned
fatuously at her, sensing that her large
maternalness conveyed some warmness,
some affection, but there was his father
telling him to run along and stay out
for awhile. . .
Pressed down by the muggy heat of
the strange and the woeful blanket of
the stranger house, he slouched by the
staircase, not daring to venture out.
And there, he heard the awful noises
that moaned of the fundamentalness in
the closed room. Tak shuddered. He
didn’t come home for a long time that
night.
His name is Takao Tanaka. His father
calls him Taka. But call him Tak.
Ill
. THAT day he chose to leave was a day
that carelessly rolled on its intended
course. By afternoon, all precaution and
necessities taken care of, Tak found a
long day of waiting. He sat under the
columns of Union Station and took stock
—figuratively and visually. The wallet
was taken out and the contents exam
ined: the stub of fare, one five-dollar
bill, four ones, name-cards, school cards,
etc. Eleven-seventy spent for the one
way ticket left nine dollars plus the
odd change — the lot was shovelled into
his pocket.
One damnable thing is, he said aloud
to himself, I know what to do and what
to expect. That just about cut the
spirit of the occasion. Extracting the
identification cards, he carefully tore
them up and scattered them around. The
faded picture of a woman was studiously
re-scrutinized and then torn up. It was
an old passport photo of his mother.
The clocks indicated one-thirty as he
wandered up the deserted Saturday
afternoon Bay Street. Overhead, beyond
the transverse cables, the late autumn
skies seemed high and light. The time
for. his train was eleven-thirty; he
wondered what to do.
j
Now that he was on the train and
getting there, in the actual sense of
the word, Tak felt giddy and hysterical.
But he was immensely satisfied with
himself. Once on board, he was con
vinced that the finality of the ultimate
was beyond his doing, or undoing; the
train was the supreme master. With
conviction he had swung aboard, his bag
and raincoat swinging a small arc; with
this conviction', he felt damn good.
He made himself comfortable; loosen
ed tie and shirt, jacket, draped over his
chest and shoulders, stockinged feet, on
the side-heater. He gazed through the
glass into the darkness — the lightningswift countryside was illuminated by a
crisp November moon that hung crazily
in.the west. Tracks and wheels in click
ing unison synchronized at odd intervals
with the speeding telegraph poles. From
the vanguard of the heedless momentum
came a long mournful sound. Again!
And then a railway signal clanged by
and faded back. The poles dipped and
rose, dipped and rose. . .
IV
ALMOST vaguely he remembered
other train-rides — night train-rides. . .
once, he had spent four continuous
nights; that was with his father when
they crossed the Rockies and the Prairies
to the Lakewaters. A half-remembered
trip of three days and four nights in
the day coaches — the awkward unfeel
ing sensations, dull emptiness of head,
heavy tight eyes on a numb face, fuzzy
tastelessness of the mouth and tongue. . .
They often had company of fat, jovial
men, who boasted of their women, coun
try, and jobs, and whose circle of friends
in Regina or Winnipeg always included
a few fine Japs.
Mighty fine people, they are, yes sir!
Let me tell you of a fella. . . One red
faced man took an over-interest in Tak,
stroking and petting him, and stirred
in Tak a warm communion and thank
fulness. His previous contacts with the
Hakujin had been with the strait-laced
teachers, the fiery, yet kind, mission
aries — people with realities closeted
away. Their faces swam before him,
faces of eager smiles and kind gestures,
but they were indistinct and no one
would hasten to the call to come down,
- come down. . . and other faces eagerly
scanned, but none would come down,
come down. . .
A man, a white man, stood up before
him, a mountain of a man. In a loud
voice, he offered to give a sock in the
jaw. Under his boxing stance and cocked
fists, Tak grew smaller and smaller
until he barely reached the man’s knees.
But then, he scooted in and jabbed the
hulk with his knife — the man howled
and doubled over. . .
Tak was high as the sky and he could
feel the man under his soles, a hard
rubbery cylinder, throbbing and pulsing
... in a sudden, he was plummeting
through the sky, ejected from a plane,
a parachute strapped to his back. He
groped for the cord. It wasn’t there!
Frantic! The navel was missing. And
he was falling, falling. . . He thought
of the warm, moist earth. How hard!

TO ask, how does one go about
cursing an old man — oh, so vehe
mently— oi’ to ask how does one
forgive, needn’t be a rhetorical
question. The vents of life need
not be a pure arabesque. The
bas-relief stands out alone, the
| rain and the hail carve a niche,
impose a wrinkle.
Old man Tanaka wasn’t that
old. The spring of ’53 marked
him only as a single forty-nine.
The early dreams of Tak recon
ciled itself around an idyllic pic
ture of a seashore, or a woodland
scene, and two figures entwined
in heart-clasp — he and his fath
er. The pounding of the surf and
the cries of the gulls, the smell
of the pines and the music of
&
the forests. . ?
As the days and the years
mounted, the picture remained
substantially the same, only a
bare rock or a withered tree fig

of waking moments drifted idly,
and yet at times were impelling,
vivid, and all too real. It was a
torture. Fascination grows on
tacit misunderstandings, and of

man’s sodden features, revealed
so naked under the bruising elec

Tak’s Case
moments before. When time re
gresses, there should be some
contiguous factors, some stabi
lity, relationships. . . or else
there is no accounting.
Perhaps, if he had written on
the morning of his all-night vigil
of this city, he could have said
all that he. wanted to say. The
crystal clarity■ in the morning
light was the cleaning filament
the razorsharp sword; the limit
it defined was clean, coherent.
And now, in the utter definite
ness of time, all else dissolved.
He turned over on his side and
wondered what time it was.

How hard’ . . . (A sudden lurch).
Abruptly, he woke up. His fore
head was pressed tightly on the
cool glass. Loosening his belt and

uncomfortableness. It was no use.
He knew he wouldn’t be able to
sleep
any more' that night.

TO ask, how does one go about
cursing an old man — oh, so vehe

forgive, needn’t be a rhetorical
question. The vents of life need
not be a pure arabesque. The
bas-relief stands out alone, the
| rain and the hail carve a niche,
impose a wrinkle.
Old man Tanaka wasn’t that
old. The spring of ’53 marked
him only as a single forty-nine.
The early dreams of Tak recon
ciled itself around an idyllic pic
ture of a seashore, or a woodland
scene, and two figures entwined
in heart-clasp — he and his fath
er. The pounding of the surf and
the cries of the gulls, the smell
of the pines and the music of
&
the forests. . ?
As the days and the years
mounted, the picture remained
substantially the same, only a
bare rock or a withered tree fig
ured— his father. The fantasies
of waking moments drifted idly,
and yet at times were impelling,
vivid, and all too real. It was a
torture. Fascination grows on
tacit misunderstandings, and of
ten Tak would study the old
man’s sodden features, revealed
so naked under the bruising elec

What stays you here? What
fears? What hopes? Am I the
festered wound, the cicatrix of
unholy deeds? The generic sense
of withdrawal and rejection be
comes complete, final. On an
itemized order, Tak might be
able to list, perhaps, some of his
father’s intemperate habits, or
his physical features, or his occu
pations past and present — from
millhand to gardener — or may
be. . . but, that was about all.
Apathetically, the gulf had widen

Back in the hotel room, the
aura of early evening’s levelness
suffused the atmosphere with
quiet resignation. Flat, incumbent

take part in a song without really under
standing the words. I sang it as loudly
as I could. Throughout the anthem, the
two policemen stood stiffly at attention
and saluting.
When “The Queen” was finished,
another music was begun. It came like
a thunder from the organ. We remained
standing. This time the Nihonjin people
sang as if they knew what the words
meant. The two Mounted Policemen
stood saluting and at attention. I knew
then it was the Japanese national
anthem.
I watched Grandmother. She was
standing straight, singing with her head
high. Her eyes were shining-. She sang
as if her life depended on it. I could
see she looked straight ahead at one
place on the stag'e. She was staring at
the two saluting red-coated Mounties.
There were tears in Grandmother’s eyes.
I could not understand why. I wished
that I knew the Japanese national an
them to sing with her, but I could only
put my hand into hers to let her know
that I felt sorry for what she was
feeling.
When we sat down, I anxiously asked,
“What is the matter, Grandmother?”
She wiped away her tears but she was
smiling.
“Senso-wa-mo-sunda. The war is now
finished,” she said. I did not under
stand what she meant.
Grandmother Cried
By ROY ITO
Hamilton, Ont.
IT WAS THE MOST exciting day of
my life. At school, I could hardly
wait to tell my teacher that I was going
with my grandmother to see a Prince.
The week seemed very long as I waited
for the day.
It was an important day for my
grandmother, too. Of course, she didn’t
show it, but I could tell that she was
excited. She was Very careful about geting dressed. She wore her best clothes,
her newest hat, and her black shoes had
an extra polish. Grandmother believes
that shoes will always tell the difference
between a nice person and a bad person.
I wished secretly that'my father and
mother could also join us to see the
Prince. But Father wasn’t even inter
ested and neither was Mother. I thought
it rather peculiar, since anyone should
want to see a real Prince, but I suppose
Father had many things on his mind,
and Mother was always tired after com
ing home from work.

GRANDMOTHER AND I caught the
Bathurst street-car and transferred at
College Street. There were many Nihonjin people on the same car, but Grand
mother looked straight ahead and paid
no attention. Speaking Japanese on
street-cars and public places is not done
by Grandmother. She will never speak
Japanese if there are any Hakujin
around.
We got off with all the other Nihonjin
people. I wondered if the conductor
knew that a Prince was visiting out city.
Toward a group of large buildings, we
started to walk. There were many Nihon
jin people heading the same way and
they were all walking very quickly. We
walked with them.
We entered a huge building, and
Grandmother and I were lucky to get
. seats where we could look over the
main floor. It was a tremendous hall
with two high balconies. The people, in
a continuous line, were pouring in and
I thought to myself that I had never
seen so many Nihonjin people in one
place. Most of them were the older
people and not many of my age.
Grandmother became very excited.
She pointed to two huge flags which
hung at the front of the hall. One was
the Union Jack. The other flag was one
I had never seen before. It was a white
flag with a red ball in the centre.
“That is the flag of Japan,” said
Grandmother. She looked at the two
flags for- a long time, and there was a
smile on her face. I thought it only
proper that the flag of Japan should
hang with the Canadian flag. Did not
the Prince come from Japan ? But
Grandmother continued to gaze at them
as if they were a wonderful and strange
sight.
Standing ready were many photo
graphers, their cameras poised. Men,
who appeared very important and busy,
dashed up and down the aisles. There
was a whole empty section near the
front.
“What is that for?” I asked.
“They are for the important people,”
Grandmother said.
A Hakujin man, wearing a long black
gown such as our minister wears, came
into the hall. He sat down at the organ
and began to play. I could not recognize
the music. Grandmother was smiling.
“What is it, Grandmother?” I asked.
“The man is playing Japanese music.
Is it not thoughtful of him?” she said.
The hall was now completely filled.
I saw many people that I knew. I spied
Uncle Yosh and Aunt Miyo in the lastrow in the second balcony. I laughed
to myself. They appeared like two owls
every time the light caught their glasses.
Suddenly everyone stood up. We
watched the entrance which was directly
opposite us. I was so excited I could
hardly breathe. We stood waiting for
what seemed like a long time.
Then, three Nihonjin men came in.
They were attired in a formal dress and
appeared very smart. Later, Grand
mother told me that the distinguished
looking man with the spectacles was the
, editor of the newspaper, the elderly man
with the white hair represented the
older Japanese people, while the young
est man spoke for the Nisei.
Then the Prince came in. I was dis
appointed. Why, I thought, he looks like
Uncle Mas! He was accompanied by a
big Hakujin man who I knew to be the
major of the city. There were also a
soldier in a very fancy uniform and
two red-coated Mounties.
Everyone bowed. I looked at Grand
mother and she was bowing. I also
bowed. It seemed like a long time be
fore we pulled our heads up.
The Prince sat down in the largest
chair which was slightly in front and
in the centre. Then everyone sat down.
I could see the Prince clearly now, and
once more I thought he looked like
Uncle Mas. By far the most wonderful
sight was the two red-coated Mounted
Policemen.
The organ began to play. It was “God
Save the Queen,” and we stood up again.
The mayor spoke to the Prince who
rose quickly. The Nihonjin people didn’t
seem to really sing and I was disappoint
ed with them. But I suppose, like
Grandmother, they found it difficult to

WHEN I- RECALL the day I saw the
Prince, I might remember how excited
I was that day. I might remember the
two big flags which pleased Grand
mother so much. I might remember the
two red-coated Mounted Policemen stand
ing stiffly at attention and saluting for
such a long time.
But I know I will remember Grand
mother singing the Japanese national
anthem, crying and yet smiling, and then
saying, “Senso-wa-mo-sunda.” It was a
happy day for her.
And I might remember the Prince
who looked so much like Uncle Mas all
dressed up for a special party.

WEDNESDAY,
“TELL me something,” I said. “'Why
haven’t you ever married?”
Jonathan looked up from his thoughts
and gave me a queer stare. We had just
finished supper and were now sitting by
the fire-place watching the smoke rise
from our pipes. I repeated the' last part
of my question and added.
1 know, you’re not a bad-looking
fellow, and besides, you have monev,
position, charm. Surely there must have
been some girl. . .”
Jonathan studied the flickering flames
for a long while.
“Well,” he said at length, “there was
a girl, once.”
I studied him with interest. Every
Sunday for the past ten years we two
old friends had supper at his bachelor
quarters. Our discussions covered every
conceivable topic but he rarely mention
ed his personal life. Now his eyes were
thoughtful and sad as he drew at his
pipe.
I stood up and shovelled some coal
upon the fire. How little we know about
our friends, I mused. We learn their
habits and idiosyncracies and yet often
fail to know their real personalities.
What happened ? Did she marry
someone else?”
“No, she’s dead.” Jonathan’s face
became bleak. Then he made an odd
statement. “I think I killed her.”
I meant to give a short laugh but it
sounded hoarse. He thinks he killed her.
What did he really mean ? I gazed at
the end of my pipe, uncertain as to
what to do.
“Look here,” he blurted out. “I’ve
never mentioned this to“anybody before,
but since you brought up this subject,
here’s the rest.”
I began to protest weekly but he
continued.

“It was during my seniqr year at
college that I met, or rather, first saw
this girl. I can still remember that first
time I saw her. There must have been
three or four of us men at the canteen
when she went by. Somebody gave a
low whistle and she turned around. She
gave us a gay smile and continued on
her way with some books under her
arm. I guess I fell for her there and
then.”
Jonathan stood up and turned his back
to the fire. He slipped his hands into
his pockets.
“She became very popular around the
campus. As for me, I had never bothered
with girls before and therefore didn’t
think I stood a chance. And so I stayed
in the background while the other fellows
dated her.
“Then I did a crazy thing.” Jonathan
faced me and asked, “Tell me, do I
strike you as being a superstitous sort?
No? Well, listen to this.
“There was an old woman living in
the outskirts of the town who was con
sidered queen People called her a witch.
I must have been insane to have done
this but I went to her for advice. And
guess what she sold me! A tiny bottle
of some colourless liquid which she
called ‘Elixir of Love.’ The woman swore
that the stuff had the magical power
of causing the victim to become violently
enamoured with the first person he or
she beheld. As if I had never* read ‘A
Midsummer Night’s Dream!’ I kept the
stuff hidden in my dresser and felt silly
about it.
“It was the custom of the faculty to
give a tea around Christmas time every
year. I knew that she would be there
with her usual cluster of admirers.
Anyhow, I decided to attend the affair.
While searching for a clean shirt I
caught sight, of that bottle. If only I
had foreseen what was to happen! A
sudden impulse made me slip it into
my pocket before I set out for the party.
“It was the usual affair—everybody
smiling and gracious and carrying on
small talk. But that, bottle at my thigh
felt heavy and sinister. I was standing
awkwardly at the side entrance when
she arrived. She was alone. What mad
courage made me go up to her I know
not, but there I was, talking to her.
“She seemed surprised but pleased
with the attention I bestowed upon her.
Tea' was served in due time and when
she had put down her cup and saucer
and her attention was diverted, I quick
ly poured the contents of the bottle into
the tea.
“I was sure that there was a trans
formation in her from that time on.
The evening sped by and when the
party came to a close, I felt that my
conquest was complete.

pURIOUSLY Grandpa thrust the last of his personal
articles into a suitcase, the packing of which he had
started the night before.
When he left the bedroom and went downstairs with
two suitcases, his five-year-old granddaughter, Terry,
asked: “Grandpa, aren’t you going to church first?”
“Yes. But I’m taking my things now. The sooner
I leave for an old People’s home the better—except,
of course, where you and I are concerned,” Grandpa
trailed off with a tone of regret.
This was the end of it—after six years! This wag
the breaking point of the delicate thread of in-law
relationship between Grandpa and Terry’s parents.
Mutual but desperate conclusion was drawn that the
Issei and the Nisei couple could no longer live together
in harmony.
Now ready to drive to work, Terry’s father offered
to carry Grandpa’s baggage to the car. But Grandpa
insisted that he could do it himself.
Tugging at his arm, Terry pleaded: “Come and see me, Grandpa. Please!”
With his knurled hand, Grandpa ruffled the girl’s
hair. Then, walking with an unsteady gait to the car,
he placed the suitcases on the back seat and sat stiffly
beside them.
As the car was leaving, Terry waved her hand
intensely at Grandpa who,. in turn, gave a quick
flourish of his hand.
Back in the house, Terry stood at the window, looking
out blankly. Her downcast eyes were directed toward
where Grandpa had been a moment ago. Terry then'
remembered about her doll and, quickly wiping her
eyes, she rushed upstairs to her bedroom. “Mommy,
I forgot to wake Mary. She didn’t say goodbye to
Grandpa.”
Terry dressed the doll and took it downstairs. In the
living room she continued acting the role of a mother
Il ivas beyond Terry’s comprehension — the
quarrel between Grandpa and her parents.
then arid it was exactly as the old woman
had promised. I was elated. The girl
was completely captivated and we could
not see enough of each other. We pledged
our eternal devotion.
“Gradually, the artificiality of our
love became clear to me. My conscience
would not let me accept this. I began
to hope that the effects of the potion
would wear off in time. My anxiety
increased when I saw no change in her
attitude. Indeed, she demanded more
and more attention as the weeks went
by. I grew frightened at the terrible
situation 1 had created for this inno
cent girl.
“In desperation, I finally confessed to
her the trick I had played, but to my
horror she refused to believe it. The
situation was intolerable. That was when
I left, the university.”
“Great Scott!” I exclaimed. “Now I
remember. Wasn’t there a girl who
gassed herself in the lab shortly after
you left? The authorities stated that
it was suicide.”
Jonathan wasn’t finished. His voice
was a whisper.
“The worst is still to come,” he gasp
ed. “Soon afterwards I went to the old
woman and bared the whole story. She
was dumbfounded. You see, all she had
put into that bottle was a mixture of
sugar and water.”
looking after hex* baby. Although today was Saturday
and there were no kindergarten classes, Terry felt
empty, lonely and restless. She stirred. She couldn’t
settle down to play with the doll.
Without the radio on, the atmosphere in the house
seemed utterly dull and cheerless; only an occasional
clattering noise of dishes emitted from the kitchen.
Terry sensed that there was something wrong with
her mother—if she hadn’t yet turned on the radio.
“Is Mommy mad at Grandpa?” Terry asked her doll.
“I’d rather live among strangers in an old people’s
home even if I can’t speak English than stay with
you people,” Terry had so overheard Grandpa say to
her parents. It was the evening Terry had been awak
ened by loud vocal sounds. She had kept still, lying in
the darkness, bewildered. But with the crescendo of
angry voices, Terry had become frightened and started
to cry screamingly. Then, her mother had rushed in
from the adjoining room to comfort her.
Terry also overheard, behind closed doors, low,
controlled voices with an undertone of anger between
Grandpa and her mother. Terry knew, too when her4
mother had engaged in an argument, because she
would be continually dropping whatever she picked up.
However, it was beyond Terry’s comprehension—
the argument about Grandpa accusing her parents of
violating the traditional Japanese code of filial devotion
or, about her parents accusing Grandpa that he, like
the Issei in general, tended to stake his happiness
solely on the Nisei offsprings.
Presently, when Terry’s mother came into the living
room to do dusting, Terry asked: “Mommy, isn’t
Grandpa going to phone?”
Yes, he s supposed to let us know if the minister
could make arrangements.”
Receiving old-age pension, Grandpa had been in
retirement for seven years. True, he became despondent
after his wife’s death. But his condition worsened when
the furniture company by which he had been employed
retired him. Grandpa had sweated all his life for a
living; his character as well as the muscles of his body
had hardened like the twisted trunk of a tree.

then arid it was exactly as the old woman
had promised. I was elated. The girl
was completely captivated and we could
not see enough of each other. We pledged
our eternal devotion.
“Gradually, the artificiality of our
love became clear to me. My conscience
would not let me accept this. I began
to hope that the effects of the potion
would wear off in time. My anxiety
increased when I saw no change in her
attitude. Indeed, she demanded more
and more attention as the weeks went
by. I grew frightened at the terrible
situation 1 had created for this inno
cent girl.
“In desperation, I finally confessed to
her the trick I had played, but to my
horror she refused to believe it. The
situation was intolerable. That was when
I left, the university.”
“Great Scott!” I exclaimed. “Now I
remember. Wasn’t there a girl who
gassed herself in the lab shortly after
you left? The authorities stated that
it was suicide.”
Jonathan wasn’t finished. His voice
was a whisper.
“The worst is still to come,” he gasp

looking after hex* baby. Although today was Saturday
and there were no kindergarten classes, Terry felt
empty, lonely and restless. She stirred. She couldn’t
settle down to play with the doll.
Without the radio on, the atmosphere in the house
seemed utterly dull and cheerless; only an occasional
clattering noise of dishes emitted from the kitchen.
Terry sensed that there was something wrong with
her mother—if she hadn’t yet turned on the radio.
“Is Mommy mad at Grandpa?” Terry asked her doll.
“I’d rather live among strangers in an old people’s
home even if I can’t speak English than stay with
you people,” Terry had so overheard Grandpa say to
her parents. It was the evening Terry had been awak
ened by loud vocal sounds. She had kept still, lying in
the darkness, bewildered. But with the crescendo of
angry voices, Terry had become frightened and started
to cry screamingly. Then, her mother had rushed in
from the adjoining room to comfort her.
Terry also overheard, behind closed doors, low,
controlled voices with an undertone of anger between
Grandpa and her mother. Terry knew, too when her4
mother had engaged in an argument, because she
would be continually dropping whatever she picked up.
However, it was beyond Terry’s comprehension—
the argument about Grandpa accusing her parents of
violating the traditional Japanese code of filial devotion
or, about her parents accusing Grandpa that he, like
the Issei in general, tended to stake his happiness
solely on the Nisei offsprings.
Presently, when Terry’s mother came into the living
room to do dusting, Terry asked: “Mommy, isn’t
Grandpa going to phone?”
Yes, he s supposed to let us know if the minister
could make arrangements.”
Receiving old-age pension, Grandpa had been in
retirement for seven years. True, he became despondent
after his wife’s death. But his condition worsened when
the furniture company by which he had been employed
retired him. Grandpa had sweated all his life for a
living; his character as well as the muscles of his body
had hardened like the twisted trunk of a tree.

cause Daddy was going away
without you. He soon learned of
the disaster and it was a per
plexed little girl that he picked
off the middle of the street and
diligently spanked.
“And the warm summer months
and the wonderful picnics that
your crowd used to have—a dish
piled high with golden, brown,
crisp fried chicken, potato salad
or maybe crisp vegetable salad—

over whether it was to be a freez«er full of home-made ice cream

the band played: “Story of a
Starry Night?” And it was a
story of a starry night. . .
“Then, like a horrible night
mare, the evacuation came and
you were shipped off to the ghost
town. But somehow you got a
break, and through the efforts
of, again, your very good teacher
friend in Vancouver, you were
able to come East to'enter Var

scarce this time, and you had to

in spite of strong opposition
against girls being accepted when
so many vets were applying. You
heard too that Min was now en

never got firsts, but was sweeet
and affectionate.
“But when you got your M.D.,
it was totally unlike the feeling
you had when you graduated
from high school, when you were
nervous and thrilled, carrying
red roses, wearing your gradu

printed organdy over that—with
little pearl buttons down the

you were to come home with
brother, but when he asked if he
could take you home, you couldn’t
make yourself say that mother
had wanted you to come home
with brother. When you reached

you good-night, and being inex

couldn’t think of anything to say
or do, which silence he took for
yes. . .
“It was, oh, so romantic at the
time—you turned and ran for the

the boy for months. You didn’t
even tell yur best girl friend. But
it made you feel very grown up.

Story of a Starry Night

good pediatrician, you never
needed to worry about money

*

By M. HOSHIKO
A Reminiscence of Fond Yesteryears —
Something All of Us Do in the Quiet Beauty of Falling Snowflakes . . .
CHIYO LOOKED OUT of her
swank penthouse apartment and
she could see the soft white snow
covering the earth like the fluffy
warm blanket that her mommie
used to tuck around her when she
was a small girl. It had made her
feel so secure and loved. . . but
today, Chiyo felt very lonely' and
depressed. . .
*
*
*
“Chiyo,” a voice seemed to call
her,1 “Chiyo, don’t you recognize
me ? I’m really ’you of yester
years. Why are you so blue? You
-were always such a happy girl
before. . . Remember your first
bought coat ? It was blue with a
white fur collar—you were so
proud -wearing it for the first
time going to visit Grandmother
at Christmas. . . and the time you
rode into town astride some feed
sacks and fell off—you cried not
because you were hurt but be
cause Daddy was going away
without you. He soon learned of
the disaster and it was a per
plexed little girl that he picked
off the middle of the street and
diligently spanked.
“And the warm summer months
and the wonderful picnics that
your crowd used to have—a dish
piled high with golden, brown,
crisp fried chicken, potato salad
or maybe crisp vegetable salad—
and the inevitable arguments
over whether it was to be a freez«er full of home-made ice cream
or thick lemon meringue pie. . .
“Remember your first kiss ?
You were in second year high and
it -was during the basketball sea
son—the school had a party at
night in the gym ... a sort of
mixer. He was quite a bit older
new formal; do you remember
how you stayed up nights sewingone because it was so much
cheaper that way ? And you
danced the whole night long as if
floating on a soft cloud. And re
member that very popular tune
the band played: “Story of a
Starry Night?” And it was a
story of a starry night. . .
“Then, like a horrible night
mare, the evacuation came and
you were shipped off to the ghost
town. But somehow you got a
break, and through the efforts
of, again, your very good teacher
friend in Vancouver, you were
able to come East to'enter Var
sity. Money was much more
scarce this time, and you had to
t
do housework instead of strolling X
about on the green campus. You
stayed up late at nights to study
because you felt you must carry
on. You felt your parents ex
pected it of you. You studied
X
furiously and many nights you X
just cried from sheer exhaustion t
after you finished studying. You X
gritted your emotional teeth and
plugged away one year after
another. You heard that Min had $
returned from the army and was
on the campus, and you did so
want to re-establish contact with
him again, but you turned away S
every effort he made because you
|
felt that he might interfere with
your studies. Your success con
sisted of getting all first class
honours, prizes, scholarships, en
$
trance to med school. And by
hook or by crook, you made it,
in spite of strong opposition
against girls being accepted when
so many vets were applying. You
heard too that Min was now en
gaged to a girl, who, perhaps,
never got firsts, but was sweeet
and affectionate.
“But when you got your M.D.,
it was totally unlike the feeling
you had when you graduated
from high school, when you were
nervous and thrilled, carrying
red roses, wearing your gradu
ation dress of white satin with
printed organdy over that—with
little pearl buttons down the
RA. 8137 g front. This time you won prac
tically all the coveted prizes on
than you, a basketball star—and
you were to come home with
brother, but when he asked if he
could take you home, you couldn’t
make yourself say that mother
had wanted you to come home
with brother. When you reached
home, he asked if he could kiss
you good-night, and being inex
perienced in such matters, you
couldn’t think of anything to say
or do, which silence he took for
yes. . .
“It was, oh, so romantic at the
time—you turned and ran for the
door and -wouldn’t dare look at
the boy for months. You didn’t
even tell yur best girl friend. But
it made you feel very grown up.
“Your seventeenth birthday—
it came but once . . . and you
were for the first time in love.
When Larry gave you the lovely
perfume sef, gee, his eyes sparkl
ed when he said, ‘to my girl.’ You
went to a movie and he was
‘specially nice’, and when you got
home, he said he loved you. . .
“The year which was perhaps
the happiest, and yet, also the
saddest was the year you gradu
ated from high school. Remember
how your favorite teacher, Mr.
Thompson, who taught you bio
logy, encouraged you go on to
university ? In spite of the lack
of money, you did enter univer
sity.
“As a cute freshman coed, with
that warm refreshing charm, the
boys were very much attracted
to you. You were especially no
ticed by Min and you were so
thrilled when he asked you to the
Arts-Aggie Ball. And you realiz
ed that your meagre budget
didn’t allow for a purchase of a

The silvery soothing strains resound
As from a far, Mar world has bound
And vibrant strings do whisper, earing me
My spirit to ascend oblivious heavens free
Freedom, yes, from earthy drives
And puny mortal, he who contrives.
Buoyant, my spirit heeds and soars to height of heights
Its poised head does clash with inevitable End on flight
And tire and tires . . . Reality atuakens, searching for stead
But to gain—in vain. . . Oh, for a weary spirits’ bed
But alas, no sheets warm but icy stranger’s cloud
So white, so grey, so black ... I shall wear as my shroud.

The Twelfth Christmas
By SUE SADA
With the receiving of gifts go hand-in-hand the sacrifice of self-denial
THIS IS THE TWELFTH for the
Twinses, and the beginning- of the end
of childhood Christmases, every one of
them in Toronto. Neither Butch nor
Kitten has ever known what Christmas
was like back home on the West Coast,
against a background of mountains and
tall firs. They have known hardly any
thing of Japanese community life,.except,
through hearsay; nor have they met with
very many Japanese other than relatives,
and a few family friends. Their whole
life and living have been Tnakujin’, and
those hakujin have been neighbours.
Thus in memory of the 'passing years
which could not be kept within the pages
of a photo-album, here unrolls the twelve
Christmases which they knew, for when
they become teen-agers, Christmas will
have shed its childhood mystery, and
will become a glorious feast-day,' the
birthday of the Christ that gives their
life meaning and purpose.
1942:
Christmas is in a three-room flat on
the third floor of a parsonage. There is
no tree, but the family share the tree
downstairs on the second floor. The
Twinses’ first sight of the decorated tree
meant baby hands reaching out for the
shiny tinsel baubles which were so
fragile they broke. Mom, had to tear her
hair to get the pieces out of their
’ hioffi^'knd everybody else had to be
fast in stopping Butchie and Kitten from
tearing into and chewing up* the gaily
wrapped gifts piled up beneath the tree.
Gifts, giving and receiving, meant noth
ing. The rich turkey dinner meant only
a tummy-ache, and the night was only
a fretful tossing of over-excited little
bodies.
1943:
This was the first one in their own
home, somewhat bare in spite of bor
rowed pieces of furniture. The tree was
small in order to fit the small front
room, but it must have looked enormous
to a goggle-eyed pair of Twinses. They
walk around being helpful, by pulling
down tinsel and breaking more baubles,
and generally getting underfoot every
which way. Santa Claus ? They can’t even
pronounce the name, and Christmas be
comes Kizmiz, and the excitement run
ning through the house, as Big Sister
and the Littler One gets ready for the
big day, affects the Twinses into beingnaughtier and crankier than ever. They
feel the excitement without understand
ing it, and the unusual tensions only
make them nervous. Gifts ? Theii' small
faces light up and they stretch their
pudgy fingers for them with an insist
ent ‘Peez!’, and they want everyone
else’s gifts, too, and can’t understand
why they are limited to their own. The
dinner is only a minor item to them,
as long as they can eat only the for
bidden items like too much candy, cake,
and nuts. Meat and vegetables ?
“Don’ wannam! Nooohhh!”
1944:
Now they get a glimmering of what
goes on in the world around December
.25th, Snow, snow-suits, sleds, snowballs
. . . wonderful stuff to roll around in.
Santy-claws is cornin’ to town, and they
want to know:
“Who dat, Mom ? Santy-claws Christmus, Mom ? ”
“T wanna wagon! I wanna Mama
doll! I wanna. . . I wanna. . .”
“Don’t want ’taters. Just turkey.
Wanna big bone!”
“Oooph! Lookit the tree! Prettypretty. . .”
“Crismus! Crismus! I like Crismus.”
1945:
1945, and war’s over.
“Mommy, what can I have for Christ
mas ? Can I have a train like Jimmy’s ?
Will you get me a big doll carriage?
I want a scooter. ... I want a tea-set
.... I want........ ”
“Now look here, you Twinses, is that
all you can say ? I want this and I want
that? What are you going to give, eh?”
That is a new slant, so Butchie and
Kitten take time out to think it over.
Give ? All they can remember is getting.
Give ? Like they give Joy a piece of
candy? Or a cookie they give to Markie?
Give? You gotta give at Christmas?
What you gonna give at Christmas?
“Mommy! What I have to give for
Christmas ?”
“Well now, Butchie, what would you
like to give?”
“Me too, Mommy!” ,
“Okay, Kitten, what are you going
to give ? ”
The Twinses gaze earnestly at their
Mom, trying to figure out this problem
of giving. You could see their little
minds running over their few possessions,
trying to decide just which one they
could bear to give away. Butchie is
having a hard time, Kitten begins to
look worried. Golly-oh-golly, what can
they give? They don’t want to give any
of their things away!
“Aw Mommy, do we gotta give my
toys away?”
Kitten hugs her doll closer, as if it
were threatened. It is hard to give away
one’s possessions, but they have to learn
soonei' or later that giving is the other
half of getting. All of a sudden, Butchie
beams.
“Jimmy can have my coloring book,
I don’t want it anyway!”
How does one explain to four-year-olds
that to give away what one has no use
for, is not real giving? Giving entails
a sacrifice, and it’s never too soon to
learn, if one wants to set a lifetime
habit of self-denial, sacrifice, and true
giving. So the lesson goes on, and the
seed is planted for the harvest. Soon
comes Butchie:
“Mommy, I’m gonna get you lots of
things. . . lots and lots of things. . . and
ice-cream and candy and a purty dress
and ever’thing!”
Kitten cuddles up shyly and murmurs:
“Luv Mommy!”
Who’s Santa Claus? He’s a fat, red
cheeked, jolly old man with white whis
kers, and a red outfit. He carries a bag
full of toys upon his back and is sup
posed to climb down the chimney for all
good little boys and girls, leave them
everything they want, and whose jolly

times a week over most of these radio
stations. He has for pals, Cuddles, and
goodness knows who else in the Kresge’s
toy department, or was it Eaton’s. And
he is annually seen coming- down Bloor
Street, and will pop out at you in front
of several places at once. This is the
agglomeration of details the Twinses
picked up.
However, another bit of knowledge
Butchie. and Kitten acquired at this age
was the indubitable fact that the. original
centre of all this color, excitement, pre
paration, and enjoyment, is the Birth
of the Babe in Bethlehem two thousand
years ago. They tried very hard to
connect the city-wide carnival atmos
phere with the new-born Child (maybe
the size and shape of Kitten’s baby
doll?), and came up with a most natural
question.
“Do ever’body have a birfday party
for Baby Jesus?”
“Where’s Baby Jesus now?”
Thus they hear the story of the
Nativity, the Flight into Egypt, of the
Boy Jesus discoursing with the learned
in Jerusalem, the three years of teach
ing, the Crucifixion-, and the Resurrec
tion. This is the first time they catch
a glimpse of the whole story, and while
it is still much of a mystery, their
story-sense is gratified. Now Christmas
has a deeper meaning for them, beyond
the. sparkle and joyousness they can
see and feel. However, since they are
only four, going on five, the immediate
celebrations occupy their thoughts most
of the time. Just once in a long while
they would suddenly ask this kind of
question:
“Mommy,' why the bad mans kill
Jesus?”
Slowly, ever so slowly, would seep into
their knowledge, the fact of sacrifice
behind the gift- How to recognize a tiny
Babe in a manger, with the Man on the
Cross? When to realize the impact of
Christian worship amidst the pagan
saturnalia of our modern Christmases?
These were thoughts too profound for
the Twinses, yet.

Joe Yamauchi--Galloping Albertan
Washington. Joe has always been a valuable player; one well-liked
by his team mates. When Joe pulled out for points south this fall,
he left a big hole in the Wildcat backfield and also an empty
sweater—the one with the captain insignia^on it.
Doug Swail, star with the Scona team a few years back,
proved to be Joe’s passport to Eastern Washington. When Joe
mentioned to Doug that he’d like an athletic scholarsthip that
would enable him to further his studies in architecture, Doug set
about writing to Dan Stavely at Washington State.
Stavely was filled up at home, but arranged a scholarship to
Eastern Washington with the understanding that Joe would transfer'
to Washington State next year or the year following. The big reason
for changing in mid-stream is that the eastern college doesn’t have
the course Joe is after. Joe says that it’s his first visit to the
United States except for a couple of days last year when he was
on his holidays. It is, however, his first visit to the State of
Washington.
JOE YAMAUCHI is, at present, attending Eastern Washington
College on an athletic scholarship. He is well remembered in
Alberta sports circles, especially football, for being not only the
sole Japanese Canadian player in organized Canadian ball, but
because he was one of the most promising home-grown products
to .appear on the grid scene.
*
*
*
Joe was born Elias Kimio Yamauchi on March 3, 1933, in Opal,,
a small farming village about forty miles northwest of the city
of Edmonton. Since Joe left Opal, the landscape there has become
dotted with oil-wells, but when he took his schooling from grades
one to four, it was just another sleepy little place in a backward
countryside.
The Yamauchi family moved to Edmonton after that and Joe
continued his schooling in Alberta’s capital city. Joe was a great
one to fling a football around the public school yard during recesses,
but once in high school, he started to take the game a little more
seriously. Spending his first two years at St. Joseph’s High in the
junior ranks, Joe landed on the senior squad in his third term.
Leaving high school, Joe took a job with some consulting engin
eers in Edmonton, and in the fall of 1951, he qualified for a spot
on the Maple Leaf club in the city junior league, sticking with the
Leafs right down to the Dominion finals. The following year, 1952,
Joe played his first season with the Wildcats, and again he was
with the team when they went to the Dominion play-offs.
*
*

This would have been his second year with the club but he saw
the chance to better his education and play ball at the same time.
He bowed out half way through the season and headed for Eastern

(Cont’d from Page 1)
They had seen a Christmas pa
geant in a downtown church. The
first time they were there, they
wriggled and squirmed, craning
their necks .to see all they could
see. The carols, the costumes were
not nearly as eye-catching as the
crib up on the stage. Butchie
leaned toward Mom and whis
pered loudly:
“I can’t see Baby Jesus!”
“I want to see Baby Jesus!”
There was no actual baby in
the improvised crib, for it was
merely the symbol, and it was
felt that a doll might not be
appropriate. A real baby would
be a hazard. To explain this to
six-year-olds requires an inge
nuity for which Mom did not
qualify. Neither Butchie nor Kit
ten could understand symbolism;
neither could they understand
why the central figure should be
completely absent, in fact, invi
sible to their eyes. Their dis
appointment made Mom think of
many things.
How can the Birth of the Babe
be made real for all the little
children, without the Babe ?
Could not children, who have such
realistic and literal minds, wor
ship at the Crib, behold the Holy
Infant, join their childish hands
together to gaze in adoration as
did the shepherds and the Wise
Men from the East ?
The second time the Twinses
saw the pageant, they had lost
much of their interest in the
representation of the Nativity,
because they were busy counting
the number of ‘white gifts’ that
were being piled around the Crib.
They were not anxious to see it
a third time, and 1948 passed in
much the same way as did the
years before. There was a tree,
shining and cheerful; there was
a turkey with all the trimmings;
there were many gifts for all tire
family, and for friends, and for
the poor. There had been a
Christmas concert somewhere,
and Christmas carols everywhere.
As they grew older, their un
derstanding increased, and their
questions more acute.
“Mom, if Christmas is a spe
cial day for Christians, because
Jesus was born that day, how
come a lot of people have Christ
mas but they don’t go to church ?
Is Santa Claus the real thing, or
was he made up for Christmas?”
“Santa Claus stands for St.
Nicholas, a very real man who
lived long, long ago in Bohemia.
Santa Claus, the way he is now,
came to this continent with a
Dutch settlement. I think it was
Dutch, Twinses. In Holland, you
see, children used to put out their
wooden shoes on Christmas in the
hope that they would get some
sweets. The decorated tree idea
came from Germany. In England
they had Yule logs, and carolsinging and holly and plum pud
ding. In England also they made,
a big day of the Twelfth Night,
oi- the Feast of the Epiphamy,
because that’s when the Three
Magi came to Bethlehem bring
ing gifts to the Baby Jesus.”
“But Mom, do all the churches
have pageants at Christmas? The
same thing every year? Don’t
they get sick of it?”
“No, they don’t get sick of it,
because you don’t get sick of
something that means a whole
lot to you, do you?”
“Well, I don’t want to see the
pageant again. It’s nice, and I like
to see how much presents all the
people bring, but I don’t know. ..
I don’t feel like seeing it again.
Anyhow I know exactly what’s
going to happen.” Why did the Twinses become
weary of the pageant? Did they
not catch the symbolism of it, or
was it becoming too much like
the annually decorated depart
ment store windows? Did the
pageant, including the Holy Fam
ily, the shepherds, the Three Wise
Men, and the mountain of white
gifts, fail to impress the children
with the solemnity of the occa
sion, the joyous celebration of the
Birth of the Christ ? Because- the
central figure, the all-important
Babe, was eclipsed by the color

Eastern Washington College is in Cheney, Wash., a small college
town of about firteen hundred people situated some sixteen miles
south of Spokane. Joe himself lives in Sutton -■Hall, the men’s
dormitory and the quarters for all football players.
If anyone would care to- drop him a line, he’d love to hear
from you—and it would be worth the postage to Albertans in
particular to make him remember that Edmonton is still his old
home town. The Eskimos could certainly use Joe in a couple of
years, and it would be a shame for the galloping Nisei to end up

Joe Yamauchi--Galloping Albertan
Washington. Joe has always been a valuable player; one well-liked
by his team mates. When Joe pulled out for points south this fall,
he left a big hole in the Wildcat backfield and also an empty
sweater—the one with the captain insignia^on it.
Doug Swail, star with the Scona team a few years back,
proved to be Joe’s passport to Eastern Washington. When Joe
mentioned to Doug that he’d like an athletic scholarsthip that
would enable him to further his studies in architecture, Doug set
about writing to Dan Stavely at Washington State.
Stavely was filled up at home, but arranged a scholarship to
Eastern Washington with the understanding that Joe would transfer'
to Washington State next year or the year following. The big reason
for changing in mid-stream is that the eastern college doesn’t have
the course Joe is after. Joe says that it’s his first visit to the
United States except for a couple of days last year when he was
on his holidays. It is, however, his first visit to the State of
Washington.
JOE YAMAUCHI is, at present, attending Eastern Washington
College on an athletic scholarship. He is well remembered in
Alberta sports circles, especially football, for being not only the
sole Japanese Canadian player in organized Canadian ball, but
because he was one of the most promising home-grown products
to .appear on the grid scene.
*
*
*
Joe was born Elias Kimio Yamauchi on March 3, 1933, in Opal,,
a small farming village about forty miles northwest of the city
of Edmonton. Since Joe left Opal, the landscape there has become
dotted with oil-wells, but when he took his schooling from grades
one to four, it was just another sleepy little place in a backward
countryside.
The Yamauchi family moved to Edmonton after that and Joe
continued his schooling in Alberta’s capital city. Joe was a great
one to fling a football around the public school yard during recesses,
but once in high school, he started to take the game a little more
seriously. Spending his first two years at St. Joseph’s High in the
junior ranks, Joe landed on the senior squad in his third term.
Leaving high school, Joe took a job with some consulting engin
eers in Edmonton, and in the fall of 1951, he qualified for a spot
on the Maple Leaf club in the city junior league, sticking with the
Leafs right down to the Dominion finals. The following year, 1952,
Joe played his first season with the Wildcats, and again he was
with the team when they went to the Dominion play-offs.
*
*
*
This would have been his second year with the club but he saw
the chance to better his education and play ball at the same time.
He bowed out half way through the season and headed for Eastern

and movement and sound of the
live actors of today? Could be.
(Cont’d from Page 1)
They had seen a Christmas pa
geant in a downtown church. The
first time they were there, they
wriggled and squirmed, craning
their necks .to see all they could
see. The carols, the costumes were
not nearly as eye-catching as the
crib up on the stage. Butchie
leaned toward Mom and whis
pered loudly:
“I can’t see Baby Jesus!”
“I want to see Baby Jesus!”
There was no actual baby in
the improvised crib, for it was
merely the symbol, and it was
felt that a doll might not be
appropriate. A real baby would
be a hazard. To explain this to
six-year-olds requires an inge
nuity for which Mom did not
qualify. Neither Butchie nor Kit
ten could understand symbolism;
neither could they understand
why the central figure should be
completely absent, in fact, invi
sible to their eyes. Their dis
appointment made Mom think of
many things.
How can the Birth of the Babe
be made real for all the little
children, without the Babe ?
Could not children, who have such
realistic and literal minds, wor
ship at the Crib, behold the Holy
Infant, join their childish hands
together to gaze in adoration as
did the shepherds and the Wise
Men from the East ?
The second time the Twinses
saw the pageant, they had lost
much of their interest in the
representation of the Nativity,
because they were busy counting
the number of ‘white gifts’ that
were being piled around the Crib.
They were not anxious to see it
a third time, and 1948 passed in
much the same way as did the
years before. There was a tree,
shining and cheerful; there was
a turkey with all the trimmings;
there were many gifts for all tire
family, and for friends, and for
the poor. There had been a
Christmas concert somewhere,
and Christmas carols everywhere.
As they grew older, their un
derstanding increased, and their
questions more acute.
“Mom, if Christmas is a spe
cial day for Christians, because
Jesus was born that day, how
come a lot of people have Christ
mas but they don’t go to church ?
Is Santa Claus the real thing, or
was he made up for Christmas?”
“Santa Claus stands for St.
Nicholas, a very real man who
lived long, long ago in Bohemia.
Santa Claus, the way he is now,
came to this continent with a
Dutch settlement. I think it was
Dutch, Twinses. In Holland, you
see, children used to put out their
wooden shoes on Christmas in the
hope that they would get some
sweets. The decorated tree idea
came from Germany. In England
they had Yule logs, and carolsinging and holly and plum pud
ding. In England also they made,
a big day of the Twelfth Night,
oi- the Feast of the Epiphamy,
because that’s when the Three
Magi came to Bethlehem bring
ing gifts to the Baby Jesus.”
“But Mom, do all the churches
have pageants at Christmas? The
same thing every year? Don’t
they get sick of it?”
“No, they don’t get sick of it,
because you don’t get sick of
something that means a whole
lot to you, do you?”
“Well, I don’t want to see the
pageant again. It’s nice, and I like
to see how much presents all the
people bring, but I don’t know. ..
I don’t feel like seeing it again.
Anyhow I know exactly what’s
going to happen.” Why did the Twinses become
weary of the pageant? Did they
not catch the symbolism of it, or
was it becoming too much like
the annually decorated depart
ment store windows? Did the
pageant, including the Holy Fam
ily, the shepherds, the Three Wise
Men, and the mountain of white
gifts, fail to impress the children
with the solemnity of the occa
sion, the joyous celebration of the
Birth of the Christ ? Because- the
central figure, the all-important
Babe, was eclipsed by the color

Eastern Washington College is in Cheney, Wash., a small college
town of about firteen hundred people situated some sixteen miles
south of Spokane. Joe himself lives in Sutton -■Hall, the men’s
dormitory and the quarters for all football players.
If anyone would care to- drop him a line, he’d love to hear
from you—and it would be worth the postage to Albertans in
particular to make him remember that Edmonton is still his old
home town. The Eskimos could certainly use Joe in a couple of
years, and it would be a shame for the galloping Nisei to end up
