by Margie
Last Sunday the Toronto JCCA hosted Olympic trials swimmers
Marg Iwasaki, sister Lynne, and Gerry- Nakatsuka of Vancouver
at the Fuji-Matsu. All being very friendly, we had an interesting
informal chat (and the dinner was not half bad too—Nihonshoku
topped off with coffee and ice-cream).
Between them, talented Marg and Lvnne in ieir tendei year
have, besides swimming’, dabbled in
uiano I
ons and d
Top - flight
prizewinning hairdresser,
Mr. Lawrence, is
K
their older brother.
A n o t h eT brother,
Cedric, is a jazz en­
thusiast — plays
clarinet and sax in
a high school mod­
ern jazz quartet.
The three visiting
swimmers are, stric­
tly for roch’n roll.
Gerry7 is a sports
enthusiast — tried
his hand in wrest­
ling and football in
particular, but had
to drop them for
swimming.
W hen
you take swimming,
you have to cut out Marg Iwasaki relax at the House of
practically
every­ Fuji-Matsu for Art Okimura’s shutter.
thing else, he sayys.
'The evening wound up with a snapping of shutters in the
ozashikis and rock gardens by* TJCCA’s camera fiend, results of
which you see here.
We went to see-the swimmers in action at Christie Pits (more
formally7 known as the Alex Duff Memorial Pool at Willowvale
Park). In a 50-yard swim for kids under 10, looking just like a
bunch of little frogs, one embarrassed unfortunate almost lost his
trunks, but gamely7 fought on to the finish line. He won a round
of applause.
Had an opportunity to see a
showing of Living,- the
film entered this yeai- by Japan, along with Ugetsu, in the Stratford Film Festival. In black-and-white with English subtitles, the
scenes take place in modern-day7 Japan. An' odd thing about the
title, but not so odd when you’ve seen the film, is that “Ikiru”, the
title translated, means “Living”, but the English subtitle says
“Doomed”.
The story is about an old man who, having merely7 existed for
the past. 25 years, discovers that he is doomed to die from cancer.
within the year.
er a few days of deep despair, he gradually
learns the meaning of life and living, achieves the near-impossible,
and dies happy.
Besides showing the lack of cooperation and organization in
city administrations (particularly Tokyo), the picture brings home
with force and pathos the fact that a great many’ people are content
to be yes-men and take things too easy.
Although reports -say that the film was not too well received
in Stratford, in my opinion it has been one of the best films to
come out of Japan—what I call a “thinking” film. Of course, I
haven’t seen too many* Japanese films in my lifetime. . . . However,
it is unlikely7 that it will be shown in Canada—at least, not in the
near future.
^.

Big things doing down south: A couple of weeks ago on Sun­
day, Aug. 12, the IGth Annual Nisei Week Festival in Los Angeles
opened with the 16th Annual Coronation Ball, where they crowned
the 15th Annual Nisei Week Queen. The place was the Hollywood
Palladium, the MC was Thomas Mitchell, the orchestra was Ray
Anthony, and' the attendance was 2,000.
Write-ups of the big affair reported that: MC Thomas Mitchell,
“star of stage, screen and television” didn’t help proceedings any
with his total inability to pronounce Japanese names. . . . Judges
for the beauty7 contest included prominent persons from Max Factor
and various studios including RKO. . . . Special guest Hilda Mikami,
Hawaiian beauty7 queen, danced with Ray Anthony. . . . Two ■local■
Nisei vocalists fulfilled life-long ambitions of singing with a name
band. “Their polished performance thrilled the crowd and they- received a thundderous applause.”
They really had a ball.

Next weekend. Toronto will have a ball with the JCCA Labor
Day7 Softball Tournament, dance, and social. Come out and root for
your favorite team on Saturday and Sunday afternoon at Bellwoods
park (below Dundas and Gorevale), and enjoy yourselves at the big
dance at the Masonic Temple, Yonge and Davenport.
