Educational Trips To Japan By Jpnz. School
TORONTO. — The educational ■ trip to Japan project for the
graduating students of the Toronto Japanese School undertaken for
the first time this year was a tremendous success. The primary
purpose was to expose the students to an environment where only.
Japanese was spoken for the furtherance of their education, and
it goes without saying the the trip accomplished its desired objec­
tive. The fact that the students were also able to have an audieri-.
ce with the Crown Prince and the Princess was ah added .event they
would cherish for the test of their lives. ;
v
. The Committee responsible for the project is very, grateful to
the Consulate General of Japan, Japan Air Lines, Toronto Prince
Hotel and to the public at large - without whose cooperation and
assistance the project may not have* materialized..
The Committee is a present making preparation for the coming
1975 trip scheduled’ for the monh of July. The particulars^ as they
are worked out, will be announced but information may be obta­
ined from any of the Committee members: compfised\of Hitoshi

Keiyu-Kai Reunion At Mayfair Big Success
TORONTO. —A successful Keiyu-Kai reunion was .held : Sa­
turday, October 12th at' the Mayfair Inn Restaurant .’when, sixtyfive people from Montreal-, Hamilton, and Toronto met. .for their
first get-together:'
Former Keiyu-Kai members are the Grade 8 graduates from
the class of ‘39 of the Vancouver Language School; -Respite .The
fact that 35 years have lapsed since that time, Father, Time-has
.been-most kind. Some have gone gray, while othersy-h.ay^
onweight;a couple are already grandparents while some 'have; pre­
-teen children.
- *. '
.
After’a delicious roast beef dinner, Mr. Shoji Takahashi ex­
tended • a’ warm ■Welcome. He also read, a letter from Mr.--^ T^
Sato, farmer prinicipal of the Japanese Language School, who
had written to Mrs. Masako Yoshida. Mr. &. Mrs. Sato sent gree-.
tings on our reunion. Mr. Sato is 83 years old, and recently incur;
rred a knee injury. A large 1939 graduation.picture was. circulated
and this, of course, brought howls of laughter as comparisons we­
re made of now and then. .Many memories came to light with con-,
versations such as “Remember that naughty boy, rememiber Strat­
hcona, Fairview High, King Eddie, Britannia, Tech?”
' Former Keiyu-Kai members present were: Paul Asada, Tosh
Fujioka, Mich Harada (Kinoshita), Oscar Hatashita, Penny loi
(Kubota), Sue Kai' (Matsugu), Phyllis Kanaya (Shiraishi), Jim
Koyanagi, Yoshiko Noguchi (Mitsuke), Tosh Otsuka,' Yas Saato,
Kay. .Sakaguchi ;(Kurita), Hideo Sakamoto, Mickey Sugamori (Ta­
kasaki), Shoji Takahashi, Dick Takimoto, Eizo Tfthaka,FloTana15a (Murakami), Ginger Terakita (Tsuji), Aya,Tsushima (Naruse),
Betty Ura (Yoshida), Masako Yoshida (Miyazaki), from Toronto.
Hamilton members present: Tosh .Hashimoto, Chieko Nakano (’Ha­
yashi), Nobby Tonogai, Kay Tonogai (Kishimoto), from Montreal
were Ralph Horiuchi, Sue Ikebuchi (Yokota) , Toki . Matsubayashi

Tonogai from Hasmlton and the spouses of' the members. .
Hopefully, it will riot be .another '35 years before we meet again. Memories are-precious; we should renew them from time-to:
time.
