Kodokan Judo Club will hold
their 6th annual Judo Tourna­
ment at the Hamilton YMCA on
April 26. A weight classification
system will be used to match con­

The grade and weight class-matching has been in use in the
U.S. for several years and was
introduced in the European tour­
nament for the first time last
year, proving to be a fair way of
matching the contestants.

Voting for Academy Award
winners closed Feb. 17. If Haya­
kawa is chosen, hje said he will go
to Hollywood for the award pre­
sentation ceremonies March 26,
after his March 12 NBC TV
show.
The veteran actor—he’s made
144 movies in the U.S., France,
England and Japan in his 45
years in the business-disclosed
he has already been given three
awards for his role as Colonel
Saito. One was an award from
the All-American Motion Picture
Critics Association and another
from the National Board of Re­
view.
The third is the “Golden
. Globe” award, which he was to
receive in person at a presenta­
tion dinner in Hollywood Feb. 26.
This award is given on the basis
of a selection by 120 foreign
newsmen in Hollywood.
All three awards are for the
best supporting actor of 1957.
In “The Bridge Over the River
Kwai,” Hayakawa, as Saito, is the
commander of a World War II
Japanese-run
war
prisoners’
camp. Asked how he came to play
this role, Hayakawa explained:
“I thought the interpretation
of the character of Colonel Saito
was a believable one—-that it
created no conflict or ill-feeling
internationally.”

UNESCO Seeks Nisei Intending to Visit Japan
In mid July-August this year,
the United Nations Association
Committee foi’ UNESCO is un­
dertaking-an East-West Cultural
Mission to Japan in cooperation
with UNESCO’s international
program of promoting mutual ap­
preciation of East-West Culture.
Greater undertaking between the
Orient and the Occident is a vital
need in the world today.
The group selected will be a
cross section of Canadians repre­
senting educational, cultural and
industrial interests for whom un­
usual opportunities for meeting
corresponding interests in Japan
will be arranged.
A few Nisei are being sought
to act as interpreters and guides
on this mission. Approximate cost
is $1,200, including return air
fare, Vancouver-Tokyo, rooms,
meals and travel in Japan for
four weeks, and it is anticipated

The VW Aids Trade
Highlight of the 1957 Canadian
automotive story is the increased
share of the market held by im­
ported vehicles and particularly
Volkswagen, leader in the import
field. But Volkswagen Canada
Ltd. announced that Canadian al­
locations in 1958 would remain.at
about the same level as last year
because of increasing' world de­
mand. Since 1952 total sales have
been doubling each year.
Chief reason for VW’s success
lies in economy and service—a
low initial price and low operat­
ing and maintenance costs, and
high calibre' of service facilities
and adequate spare parts.
Besides the popular passenger
cars in three basic models, the
various models of VW commercial
vehicles are becoming an increas­
ingly important part of the compauv's sales volume.
Uses for these rugged, agile
vehicles range from delivery vans
and pick-up trucks to school buses
and portable broadcasting- units.
VW sales in Canada have con­
tributed greatly to trade between
this country and Germany, paying
for nearly* 50 percent of Germ­
any’s wheat imports from Cana­
da.

that some travel grants will be
available. Interested persons may
contact Mrs. Helen Tucker, Chair­
man of Travel Missions ,at United
Nations Association in Canada
Committee for UNESCO, 280
Bloor St. West, Toronto.
Upon their return, members of
the Mission will be expected to
share, in some measure, then' un­
derstanding and experiences—in
writing, in speaking, or through
the org-anizations with which they
may be associated.
In undertaking an East-West
Cultural Mission to Japan, the
UNA Committee for UNESCO is
supporting
UNESCO’s
Major
Project, approved foi' a ten-year
term bv the General Conference
of UNESCO in New Delhi, Nov.
1956—“The Mutual Appreciation
of East-West Cultural Values”.
In implementing this project, it
has been emphasized that .nation­
al programs should not be limit­
ed to small circles of intellectuals
but should reach the general pub­
lic and impress public opinion.
It is urged that national organ­
izations nominate and sponsor at
least one of their' number as a
member of the East-West Cultur­
al Mission to Japan. Applications
should be made as quickly as pos•sible.

The Toyopet is Coming
The Japan External Trade Re­
covery Organization (JETRO) re­
ported this week a bright, future
in Canadian markets for Japanese
manufactured plywood, sewing
machines and cameras, with good
prospects for steelware and build­
ing materials. Cameras, jeeps and mikans
seem' to be the top consumer
items in western Canada, but Ja­
panese cigarette lighters, port­
able radios and toys are not very
successful.
There is growing interest in the
small Japanese passenger car, the
Toyopet, which will be exhibited
for the first time in Canada at
the Inteimational Trade Fair in
Vancouver opening this May.
The Toyopet will likely be on
display at the CNE in Toronto
this fall.
