ifletor Richard Boone ^?®LJ3.!??”, P°ctfy About Hawaii Japanese


By KATS KUNITSUGU

LOS ANGELES.—Many readers, I’m sure, saw the
: f^-verse. “excerpts from an outline” entitled “The
' Hewiation” by eminent actor Richard Boone in the
Calendar section of a recent issue of E. A. Times.
Boone, who now makes his home in Hawaii, is writ••^ about the Japanese in Hawaii in the tough, tell.N^e-it-is-baby idiom which reflects his own rock
honest view of life.
X They came here a hundred years ago
Our of rhe paddies, night soil fed;
Thev came here locked in the stinking pure-drenched
bottoms of the lousiest hulks in the Pacific.
Fat lady, its the truth; they landed here indentured.
And were parceled out like any other property.
Slaves, fat lady, slaves in paradise.
And now. Right now. Only three generations from then,

showroom.
This low priced Datsun wagon could well turn
out to be the perfect family car.
It doesn’t look like a box. Or park like a bus.
It can carry a family of five plus the faithful
St. Bernard. Or two people and enough champagne
and luggage to escape from the kids for a month.
But you don’t give up one bit of car comfort.
The attractively contoured body gives room inside
without bulk outside. The independent front
suspension picks its way over bumps like a cat. The
luxurious interior remains whisper quiet. The
windows-up ventilation system changes the air
several times each minute as you drive. The strong
heater-defroster quickly makes high noon
out of chilly mornings.

T-here s security too. Smooth, sure disc brakes on
the fiont. Safety glass all round. Three point seat
belts. Dooi locks that can’t spring even under extreme
piessuie. Unlimited visibility with no side-window
blind spots.

As for pep. Heartwarming. This is the most powerful
wagon in its class. It has 96 HP geared to deliver
a top speed of 100 m.p.h. It cruises at freeway speeds
with the solid feel of a thoroughbred sports car.
And only sips at the gasoline . . . thanks to the
advanced design of its overhead camshaft engine.
special note: See how the rear door swings up.
There’s no lip on the vinyl covered deck so that you
can slide shopping or heavy packages in at
knee height. No awkward lifting. Come to think
of it . . . better than a car!

You can buy this smart looking wagon with sporty
bucket seats and four on the floor for $2495
Warner Automatic, with bench seats, for about $200
more. Both offer you the big Datsun benefit
. . . 100,000 mile reliability.
Check the Datsun wagons out at your
nearest dealer. But we warn you.
Once you’ve seen them it’s hard
not to get carried away.

arge gathering of Toronto Buddhist Church members and special
guests, ladies from the Centennial United Church and the Japanese
Anglican Church.
“Paediatric Cardiology” was the topic of Dr. Izukawa’s talk.
He pointed out with the use of diagrams, the various types of
congenital heart defects in new horns, and the different surgical
corrections which are being carried out to correct these abnormal­
ities । He said that although the percentage of babies born with
heart defects is small, the mortality rate of such infants within
the first few months is so
that detection and corrective)
measures must he taken as soon as possible.

served b.v the Dana ladies during which time, Dr. and Mrs. Izu­
kawa were able to mingle with friends.
