She assisted her husband in the operation of his

His report titled “Characteristics of Suicide

and environmental factors also played a part.
Ohara said that aged persons in Japan had
certainly been discomforted by an environment
that they found incompatible.
But even in Scandinavia, despite the compre­
hensive social security system, there was little
significant drop in the suicide rate, he pointed out.

may in part account for the fact they hold the
unenviable record for the suicide rate among the
women of the world, a lecturer at Jikei Medical

ROY
KIYOOKA

Nisei Fisherman Drowns Off B.C. Coast

By AIKO SUZUKI
“It was Jean Arp, I believe, who said ‘painting and poetry go
together'. The one activity complements the other and both
together give me a context for articulation more than either
discipline per se . . . ”

There is an argument about the rewards of diversity; that is,
if creative energy is channelled into more than one expression,
the yield in terms of realized potential is a diluted one.

Roy- Kiyooka is a remarkable man. Remarkable in that he is
one of the few contemporary7 Canadian artists who expresses him­
self in two highly specialized mediums — painting (more recently
sculpture) and poetry- — and who does so with an authority7 and
style that is highly respected by his peers in both areas of expres­
sion.
Kiyooka has been well-known to the Canadian art world for
many years, having exhibited extensively across the country and
been published regularly. This column will not deal with Kiyooka’s
work but with Kiyooka, the creative man, using a montage of his
statements from the “White Pelican, a Quarterly Review of the
Arts” (published in Edmonton early this year). As he was prepar­
ing a sculpture exhibition to open at theBau-Xi Gallery, to be
followed by* a retrospective of his paintings, a further column will
discuss his work.

Kiyooka was born in Saskatchewan and initially? earned a
living through an intriguing diverse range of occupations —
window dressing, show cards, copywriting, farming (during the
war years he worked on the killing floor of the Swift Canadian
Company- in Edmonton), logging, sawmills in Northern Alberta,
five summers on the Great Slave Lake as fisherman and fish pro­
cessor and, for the past 15 years, teaching art at various insti­
tutions.
“All of these things have been useful. They add up, I suppose,
to one man’s life — the shape of it — I don’t regret any of it,
not a bit. I'm glad, in fact, that that’s the way it was. I’ve
had very little formal education . . . my sense of the possibility
of art grows largely out of this varied life experience. I’m not
too interested in argument, particularly the kind that wants
to argue aesthetics — not that I’m not involved there but simply
it’s not where my head is most of the time.”
In the past, artists have generally* been fortuitous in that selfdiscovery* (and therefore life expression) has been realized without
having to endure that agonizing phase of the young in search
ot a medium of expression and Kiyooka found himself in a position
of being

Tor. Sansei Captures Canadian Junior
Women’s Gymnast Championship
ARVIDA, Que. — A Sansei gymnast, Miss
Sharon Tsukamoto of Toronto recently captured
the Canadian Junior Women's Gymnast Champ­
ionship title.
Sharon, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Soc Tsuka­
moto of Toronto, is also the current Ontario Cham­
pion. This 17-year-old has been practicing and
competing since she was 12 years old.
In her national triumph, Sharon gave a superb
performance to claim the Junior Women's crown
from Vancouver's Dagny Hill.
Only 1.05 points separated the two with Wendy
Nicholson of Toronto, a close third.
