Jack slipped from the wings into
the corridor
tremendou s shock of black hair above
weat-beaued forehead.
On a miserable rainy afternoon,
former Toronto Symphony Or­
chestra conductor, Maestro Seiji
Ozawa had done it again — pack­
ed the 3,200-seat Opera House
with paying listeners as the San
Francisco Symphony Orchestra
soared toward the best season in
history and
first under 1
direction.
The former Japanese schoolboy
baseball pitcher, who had' to give
up the piano when he broke a
finger playing football, has been
credited by many with bridging
the generation gap in music.
Ozawa himself insists he is no
innovator.
“I like to try some mixtures,”
he explained in an interview.

At 35, Ozawa obviously does
not share the sentiments of his

"Many have
electronic sound with orchestra.”
Ozawa went on. “It has not been
too successful, but I do not want
to say this is impossible.
“Electronic sounds disturb some
people. Sometimes they disturb
me, too. It is hard to mix.
“Of the future. I don’t know,

Nisei Rev,

The Last Time I
Saw Shanghai
Author of “Nisei: The Quiet Americans”
DENVER, Colo.—The Last Time I Saw Shanghai—If you are of
French' ethnic origin, or a Francophile, you sing “The Last Time
I Saw Paris” with the proper sad catch in your voice. And if you
are an Asian American, the news dispatches of U.S. correspondents
revisiting China for the first time since 1949 stirs memories ,of
the last time I saw Shanghai.
*
*
That was a mild October night in 1941. History reveals that
the die had been cast for a Pacific war, but that night was soft
and peaceful. The S.S. Cleveland was tied up in the middle of the
Whangpoo River, a quarter mile up the channel from the Japanese
cruiser Idzumo, which was a constant reminder of the Japanese
presence. The Bund, that storied street along the riverfront, bustled as usual with the flow of trucks and cabs and private cars,
busses and rickshaws, the cry of the noodle man and the rhythmic chanting of coolies toiling late under* incredible large load's.
A small ferry was poised to take the Cleveland’s passengers
from the jetty to the brilliantly lighted ship looming above the
dark river waters like a valiant bit of America in darkening Orient.
We shook hands in farewell to a handful of friend's who had come
to say bon voyage, not knowing when we’d meet again, if ever,
and boarded the ferry.
Presently the Cleveland hauled in her hawsers and set off
down the Whangpoo. The neon glow of the International Settle­
ment soon faded, and the riverbanks of the Japanese-occupied
Hongkew sector were only darkened warehouses, factories and
tenements. The moon that night was huge and brilliant, for it
was the time of year the Chinese set aside for their moon-viewing
festival. As the Cleveland turned from the Whangpoo into the
broad Yangtze itself, the filthy, silt-laden waters shimmered like
gold in the moonlight.
Next morning we made the acquaintance of our cabin mates,
three Issei who had the presence of mind to book passage home
to America out of Shanghai when ship service between Japan and
the U.S. was suspended. The cabin had only two bunks, so two
of us slept on cots. Even so we were delighted to be aboard.
Hundreds of Americans in Japan and China were fighting to
go home, fearful of the darkening war clouds gathering over the
Pacific, and unable to find passage.

Among the passengers were missionary families driven out
of inland posts by Japanese armies; a half hundred lean, tightly
wound Chinese youths bound for the U.S. to be trained as mili­
tary pilots; American servicemen in uniform who had completed
tours of duty one knew not where, and now were homeward
bound; a couple of Hawaiian Nisei and several mainland Nisei.
The Issei were most pathetically grateful to be aboard the
ship. At breakfast the first morning they couldn’t get over- the
luxury of coffee—as many cups as they wanted—and toast with
real butter. They had known what life was like in Japan. Most
of those on board had been in Shanghai but briefly, waiting for
the Cleveland to sail. I had been there for 14 months, watching
in distress the rising tide of Japanese military arrogance, the
deterioration of civilian government in the International Settle­
ment, the futile posturing of a puppet regime propped up on
Japanese bayonets to govern the Chinese part of Shanghai, the
hunger and disease and destruction of morale on the streets
as the Japanese Imperial Army prepared for- an eventual take­
over.
The British continued to drink their- scotch at the gleamingbar of the Shanghai Club, reputed to be the worlds’ longest, and
ate their roast beef and Yorkshire pudding in the adjoining’
Americans, mostly a youngish lot, went to
dining room.
Jimmie’s Kitchen for hamburger steak and chicken noodle soup
served in heavy crockery on oaken tables scrubbed spotle
with
strong scan. Th' Japanese favored the Astor House, the Broadway Mansions and the little tea houses on the Hongkew side.
We all realized we were sitting on a powderkeg, but none
of us knew what to do about it. or how to defuse the explosive.
So I decided to go home before the blast. I just made it and

In a word

OKYAKU-SAMA"
'tou can take it for granted that
service in the Japanese manner is
thoughtful, courteous, delightful.
But have you ever wondered why
it is so? Or tried to explain why?
I he Japanese language suggests
an answer, in the word "OKYAKUSAMA, referring to a "guest" or a
"customer." Whether you are a
guest in a home or a customer in
some establishment, the same
wordjs used for you. and towards
you. 1 his comes from a traditional,
.
. ,
e toward persons whose pleasures
ano wisnes must be sewed. The word reflects con-

cern for you, the guest... for your wishes, >
fort, your feelings, your convenience.
You'll hear this word wherever you go
You'll hear it on Japan Air Lines. It's this deep/
tion that makes Japan Air Lines' service s
so superior. A matter of attitude.
Worldwide, only JAL can serve you thu
travel as a customer, when you can be a
us? Your travel agent will agree. Ask him.
