number of Nisei attending the

No less than twenty-four Nisei

I.T.A., of whom twenty are
males.

Nisei Flyers Edge

Commodores 2-1

I
i
i

TORONTO. — The Nisei Flyers
added another victory to their
record by edging out a 2-1 win
over the Commodores last Fri­
day, Apr. 16, at the East" York
Arena.
Although the Flyers were
rather out-played during the first
period, the latter part of the
contest found them right in there.
The first goal was scored by Ron
Pierce only to have it soon tied
1-1. Sho Mori was credited with
tallying the tie-breaker that gave
the Nisei pucksters their 2-1
victory.

By CINDERELLA

A Prayer For Easter
T AM unaccustomed to praying—not because I do not believe in it.

PA<

* but because deep in the inner room of my consciousness I have
felt that all would work out right. And always, in hours of lone­
liness or moments of doubt, I have been aware that as long as
birds still sing and the sun rises and sets, as long as flowers follow
rain and spring the winter, there is no cause for fear.
I am unaccustomed to praying — having had no reasons for
prayers till now. Faith for me was made up of simple everyday
things. My teddy bear which I clutched as my protection against the
dark and You, dear- God, were one with me. If I wandered beyond
familiar places and was lost in some strange street, a stranger among
strange faces, it was an easy matter to put my hand in hours.
Hamilton Bowling
You took it and I was home.
It was a childlike faith, dear Lord, — an easy kind of faith.
High Men: Tad Kondo 792,
A negative sort perhaps, but one which until now has been substan­ Swanee Inouye 734, Mits Honda
tial. I had my little world — my world which demanded of me 706, Tosh Nakamura 702, Jim
something of service, and for which I received a goodly share of Kondo 699. Mike Honda 698, Roy

WINNIPEG. — Singer Aiko
Saita who left Toronto for Van­
couver and Japan last week was
taken temporarily ill at Sudbury,
Ont., early Tuesday, Apr. 13. and
rushed to a hospital from her
train. Miss Saita fortunately soon
recovered and was able to resume
her westward journey a few days
later.
After spending several days in
Winnipeg, she left here last Mon­
day, Apr. 19 and is expected to
arrive in Vancouver today, Apr.
21. Miss Saita plans to sail for
Japan aboard the Hikawa-Maru
leaving Vancouver Apr. 29.
The reason for her sudden ill­
ness at Sudbury is believed to be
a recurrence of an abdominal
disorder which hospitalized her
for two weeks just after last
Christmas.
