Vernon Issei writing J-C- history in North Okanagan
By MARNI DICKSON
Vernon Daily News
VERNON, B.C. — Ed Ouchi was born in Northern Japan
in 1903, but he's a Canadian and has had a prominent part
in the history of Vernon. ‘
Ed and his family own and operated the Kal Nursery
oh Browne Road. Along with working at the nursery, Ed is
also part of a three-man team writing the history of Japa
nese people in the North Okanagan. His own story is part
of that history.
Ed was raised in Japan. He didn't come to Canada
until 1920. When he got to Vancouver he found a totally
different world from the one he was used to. x
He had a smattering of English, but hone of it helped
him much.
STUDIED ENGLISH
“Learning English from a Japanese man made..carry
ing on a conversation in English here impossible, he
said.
!
.
“That put Japanese Cana-,
dians in a peculiar pbsitipn being hated,” says Ed.
But during that time, x Ed ■
said, another opportunity
arose, one that, would unify
young Japanese Ganadfans.
He gotagroup of close
friends together and they
started the Japanese Cana
dian Citizens League. It now
has chapters across the prov
ince.
The first order of business for him was; to enroll in
public school in New Westminster to learn English while
he learned about the Canadian way of life.
j At the same time as he was going to school, Ed also
had a part-time job doing chores for a family he was living
with. That kept him in pocket money and helped pay his
expenses.
_
There was also opportunity in Canada for him. His
father had wanted to be a doctor, and in Canada, Ed had
the opportunity to become one. He never did, but he com
pleted pre-med at the University of British Columbia. He
yvould have kept studying but it was 1937 and the depres
sion got in his way.
“It was hard to get a job, and there was beginning to
be discrimination against the Japanese people,” he said.
CITIZEN LEAGUE
Japan had invaded Manchuria, and the Chinese people
in Canada and the United States were angry. They started
a hate-filled propaganda campaign against the Japanese.

“They came to me and told
me that they thought I would

because I thought I was sup

When he learned he would

As the formally dressed

Harold Sakata
Sakata, who won an Olym

in 1948 for weight-lifting, was
a top-card professional wrest

He died at St. Francis Hos

cancer for several months.
Once when he was asked
to put some realism into a
karate chop to Sean Connery,
who played Bond, Sakata
complied and Connery was
off the set for three days.
Sakata himself suffered
some, painful burns from fire

Study of Japanese-Canadian Elderly to be Started
Of particular interest to our Society is the upcoming studies
to be carried out by Professors Harry Nishio (University of
Toronto) and Victor Ujimoto (University of Guelph) who will
study, among other things, the present perception of the older
Japanese Canadians as to their own estimate of their needs inthe coming decade. This study is designed to indicate where
to place the emphasis, be it residential or extended care in the
senior citizens complex which we envision; The Momiji Health
Care Society has been invited to participate in this study.
Advise Early Care
The Society is aware of the reluctance of our seniors and
their families to seek institutional care until our seniors are
.too infirm and thus fail to make full use of the benefits provid
ed by Greenview Lodge (Residential Care) and CastleviewWychwood Towers (Extended Gare Facilities, i.e., with more
nursing care). The admission process is necessarily slow due
to medical documentation, social workers report, waiting list,
etc. When the applicant is helpless these delays often cause
hardship for our seniors and their families. Seniors who suc
cessfully make the transition to institutional life appreciate
its security,independence and social activities and enjoy the
sense of well being.
If you yourself or if you have aged relatives of friends who
need or soon will need various degrees of geriatric care,
please contact the following volunteers before the need is ur
gent: Mrs. Mary Obata (239-6889), Dr. Roy Shinobu (492-3828)
or Dr. Fred Sunahara (783-6409). These volunteers will provide

Mysterious brown bottle
TOKYO — Visitors to Ja
pan may well be mystified by
people swiging something
from a little brown bottle at
train stations and other public
places.
. That something is usually a
so-called ‘‘health drink” — a
soft drink fortified with vita
mins and various other nut
rients. Such drinks, perhaps
uncommon outside Japan, are
creating a boom for the na
tion's beverage industry.
The “health drink” market
keeps expanding while the
whole soft drink business re
mains stagnant.
A “health drink,” which
comes in a bottle of four to
five fluid ounces, sells for
45 —65 cents.
Considering the prices, it
comes as no surprise that
people generally do nottake
seriously the supposed salu
tary effects of the drinks. The
effects, if any, are mostly
psychological.
/
Still, amid growing concern
among the Japanese about
their personal health, “health
drink” business has been in
creasing at a double digit
rate for the past several
years. Last year's sales total
ed about 1.5 billion bottles,
worth $650 million.
.
The Japanese — more af
fluent but more susceptible
to obesity and other health
problems associated with the
consumption of rich foods
— are becoming increasingly
health-minded.
Polls show that the Japa
nese generally are highly con
scious of their health, whether
they are healthy or not.
Jogging and various other
exercises are very popular
among the Japanese and so
are foods with low salt, sugar
and fat contents.
Noting the fast growing
“health drink” business,
Coca-Cola (Japan) Co., the
soft drink maker, has recently
entered the market with its
“Real Gold” drink.
Other leading “health drink”
brands include “Oronamin C”
from Otsuka Chemical, “Argin
Z” from Ajinomoto of the
chemical seasoning fame,
“Tough Man” from Yakult
and “Biomin X” from Suntory, the liquor distiller.
“Health drinks” legally are
classified as soft drinks, like
any soda pop. The manufac
turers are barred from adver
tising the fortified drinks for
their medicinal value.
So the manufacturers are
promoting their products by
stressing the refreshing qua
lities of the drinks.
“As far as we know, there
are no such products in the
United States,” says a CocaCola spokesman.
“We have developed our
the
domestic market, aiming it at
adult males in their 20s and

Mysterious brown bottle
TOKYO — Visitors to Ja
pan may well be mystified by
people swiging something
from a little brown bottle at
train stations and other public
places.
. That something is usually a
so-called ‘‘health drink” — a
soft drink fortified with vita
mins and various other nut
rients. Such drinks, perhaps
uncommon outside Japan, are
creating a boom for the na
tion's beverage industry.
The “health drink” market
keeps expanding while the
whole soft drink business re
mains stagnant.
A “health drink,” which
comes in a bottle of four to
five fluid ounces, sells for
45 —65 cents.
Considering the prices, it
comes as no surprise that
people generally do nottake
seriously the supposed salu
tary effects of the drinks. The
effects, if any, are mostly
psychological.
/
Still, amid growing concern
among the Japanese about
their personal health, “health
drink” business has been in
creasing at a double digit
rate for the past several
years. Last year's sales total
ed about 1.5 billion bottles,
worth $650 million.
.
The Japanese — more af
fluent but more susceptible
to obesity and other health
problems associated with the
consumption of rich foods
— are becoming increasingly
health-minded.
Polls show that the Japa
nese generally are highly con
scious of their health, whether
they are healthy or not.
Jogging and various other
exercises are very popular
among the Japanese and so
are foods with low salt, sugar
and fat contents.
Noting the fast growing
“health drink” business,
Coca-Cola (Japan) Co., the
soft drink maker, has recently
entered the market with its
“Real Gold” drink.
Other leading “health drink”
brands include “Oronamin C”
from Otsuka Chemical, “Argin
Z” from Ajinomoto of the
chemical seasoning fame,
“Tough Man” from Yakult
and “Biomin X” from Suntory, the liquor distiller.
“Health drinks” legally are
classified as soft drinks, like
any soda pop. The manufac
turers are barred from adver
tising the fortified drinks for
their medicinal value.
So the manufacturers are
promoting their products by
stressing the refreshing qua
lities of the drinks.
“As far as we know, there
are no such products in the
United States,” says a CocaCola spokesman.
“We have developed our
the
domestic market, aiming it at
adult males in their 20s and
