square in the eye.
Oh, I will admit Jesse, the kids,
and I look adorably average partaking
of Sunday brunch in our dress-up
clothes every week, but we're only
diverting attention away from our
unusual existence as a (ugh!) show
biz family.
Everyone in the family is an actor
— my husband, my daughter, my
son. Everyone, that is, except me. I
also work in show business, but I'm
“behind-the-scenes,” as they say.
So, I like to think that makes me the
sane one.
A typical week at our house includ
es the usual: Getting the car washed;
a trip to the supermarket; dropping
the kids off at school; a couple of
PTA meetings; birthday dinner at the
in-laws; cleaning the fish tank; and a
visit to MacDonald' s for a large order
of fries. Normal, right? I thought so.
However, there are a few items I
failed to include, like casting calls,
tapings, location shots, rewrites, re
hearsals, wardrobe, make-up, “a-aand action!” — ail part of our fami
ly's lexicon.
The past several weeks have been
quite demanding for the actors in my
family. Jesse plays the lead role in an
episode of the new NBC series,
“Misfits of Science” which aired
November 1). He' II also be appearing
in “Trapper John, M.D.” on CBS as a
kidney transplant donor and on
NBC's “Remington Steele” as' a
criminologist.
Honestly, how many wives greet
their husbands in the evening with:
“Hi, honey, how was your
transplant?” or “By the way, are you
falling out of the window today or
tommorrow?”
Not be to outdone, Stephanie did
her share of performing as a teenage
Valley girl on “Family Ties.” The epi
sode was broadcast Thursday, No
vember 14, on NBC.
It took her nearly a week to regain
her normal speech pattern, i was cer
tain if I heard one more “like, ohmigod . . .”, I'd douse-her with ice
water.
Little three-year-old J.P. could
have been spending his time at pre
school, making replicas of small ani
mals out of Playdoh, but no-o-o-!
Well, actually, most of the time he
was playing at pre-school . . . except
for an interviw for a commercial for a
fast-food chain and another one for
Kleenex. What a ham! Just like his
Daddy!
So, you see, I'm the only normal
one in this family. Of course, when a
person thinks she's the only one
sane individual around, it's generally
the first sign she really isn't. Uh-oh!

Jpnz. monk is world's
top tree peonies expert
By ANN AUMAN
TAIMA, Japan. — a Buddhist monk
at a 1,300-year-old temple in this
country town is 58 years old, wears a
monk's traditional brown robe,
shaves his head and tends his gar
den every day.
But Takahiro Somei quickly shat
ters the Westerner's naive image of
what he should be. He also drives a
new Toyota (sometimes over the
speed limit), relaxes at home with a
video-cassette recorder, keeps in
touch with his parish by portable
cellular telephones and travels to
Toronto to meet fellow horticulture
experts.
Somei's lifestyle shouldn't be so
surprising, after all, this is modern
Japan — a huge mass-consumer so
ciety where it's important to keep up
with the Satos while preserving cher
ished traditions.
Somei is part of those traditions,
having inherited from his father the
task of caring for the peaceful tem
ple and its 7,000 trees and plants.
People who know the eccentric
monk say he does remarkable things
with rare peonies. In the winter, he
covers them with little bamboo tee
pees to protect them from snow and
chilling winds. He even grows a vari
ety that blooms in the winter.
“He's the foremost expert in the
world on tree peonies,” said Henry
Landis, a Toronto peony expert and
former general counsel for the On
tario environment ministry. “The
man is really hooked on peonies.
When he saw my hybrid peonies his
jaw fell down and he simply said:
‘Ahhhhhh.’ ”
Somei has travelled to Toronto and
Hamilton, and has been in close con
tact with Landis since 1975, trading
plants back and forth across the
Pacific, Landis says Somei might
visit Toronto again in the spring.
Landis introduced the most impor
tant group of tree peonies outside of
Japan to Somei. The Lutea hybrid, as
it is called, was first developed by
Canadian William Saunders.
Back home, Somei greets 70,000
visitors a year, mostly Japanese, who
come to light incense to Amida Bud
dha at his temple's central shrine.
But for many the real attraction is the
peony trees and plants that have
made both this ancient temple and
Somei famous in Japan and among
peony lovers in Canada and the
United States. Somei loves to talk
about his beautiful plants and eager
ly invites tourists to visit his temple
and stay at his large guest house.
Tree peonies are so rare that ex
perts like Somei spend their lives try
ing to breed them. Most of his bloom
from April 20 to May 5 — though one
unusual variety spreads its scarlet
flowers in winter even while surroun
ded by deep white snow.
Somei says tending the plants is
an important part of his day-to-day
chores as a priest.
“We cut flowers from the trees,
put them in a vase and offer them to
Buddha,” he said through an
interpreter. “We think everything we
have is a gift from Buddha so we
think everything we have we should
offer ..to Buddha.”

Women of Jpnz. descent
best breast cancer survival
ATLANTA. — Researchers
in Hawaii have found that wo
men of Japanese descent
have a better chance of sur
viving breast cancer — the
most common cancer among
U.S. females — than women
in four other ethnic groups.
Researchers with The Na
tional Cancer Institute, The
Cancer Research Center of
Hawaii and the University of
Hawaii at Manoa studied the
survival rates for 2,956
women with breast cancer
between 1960 and 1979. Japa
nese women had the highest
rate of surviving more than
five years after diagnosis.
Chinese women's survival
rate was worse, proceeded by
Caucasians, Filipinos, and
Hawaiian (or part Hawaiian)
women.
The study, reported* by the
U.S. Centers for Disease Con
trol (CDG), compared survival
rates rather than actual num
bers of survivors, since diffe
rent numbers of women from
each ethnic group were stu
died to begin with.
The reasons for Japanese
women's higher cancer sur
vival rate are not really under
stood, said Dr. Leslie Boss, a
Peonies are perennials of the but
tercup family, often double-flowered
with large pink, white, red or yellow
blossoms.
Somei writes books and articles on
their care, lectures and often appears
on television in Japan. “He's not
monkish at all. He's a very modern,
enterprising businessman,” Landis
said.
Somei and his wife, Nobuko, live at
the temple in Nara prefecture, at the
base of a hill surrounded by rice pad
dies.
Their two university-educated
sons have taken jobs in large cities,
although Somei expects one will re
turn some day to take over the temple.
Parts of the temple date back to
the year 670 A.D. when it was built by
emperor Tenchi; the rest from 1810
when it was restored. The temple
complex consists of walls surround
ing separate buildings housing the
central shrine, Somei's home and a
large residence for at least a dozen
guests.
Sekko-ji, as the temple is called in
Japanese, has been nicknamed
botan dera, or tree peonies temple,
and it belongs to the Jodo sect of
Buddhism.
Visitors can stay at the temple
Japanese-style for 4,000 to 5,000 yen
($22 to $28) a night including two
meals and lessons about peony trees
and Japanese culture.
“Sometimes people eat flowers
and roots,” Somei said, adding that
certain varieties were commonly us
ed to relieve what he called “wo
men's pains.”
Somei grows 660 varieties of peo
nies that come from all over the
world — including Canada, the
United States, China and France —
and is currently trying to graft a
Chinese peony tree for his Canadian
friends.
His day begins every morning at 5
a.m., when he gets up to clean the
temple, pray to Buddha and ring the
temple bell to beckon worshippers.
The temple opens at 7 a.m. and wor
shippers arrive, light incense and
donate money, which helps pay
Somei's salary. He spends most of
his day tending the plants and writing
about peonies, but also performs
more traditional duties like officiat
ing at weddings and visiting the j
homes in his parish during religious
I
festivals.
Gregarious and outgoing, he de
lights in telling the history of his tem j
ple and all the details of his favorite |
trees — many of which he grew up
with.
He also shows guests through the
golden shrine with its collection of
1,000-year-old artifacts and, some
times, he even lets his visitors swing
the giant log that rings the temple's
old iron bell.
For more information on peonies
and Somei's methods, call Dr. Henry
Landis at 221-5060 in Toronto. And
you can write to Somei at the fol
lowing address (he has translators
who can read English): Takahiro

National Cancer Institute re
searcher in Bethesda, Mary

may be a large dietary factor;
it' s very difficult to say.”
Even when the rates were
adjusted for stage of cancer
at diagnosis, patient age and
socio-economic status, there
was little change in the rela

Scientist suspect a com

studies have found that when
cancer patients of different

Regardless of ethnic fac

NEW
Jpnz. monk is world's
top tree peonies expert
By ANN AUMAN
TAIMA, Japan. — a Buddhist monk
at a 1,300-year-old temple in this
country town is 58 years old, wears a
monk's traditional brown robe,
shaves his head and tends his gar
den every day.
But Takahiro Somei quickly shat
ters the Westerner's naive image of
what he should be. He also drives a
new Toyota (sometimes over the
speed limit), relaxes at home with a
video-cassette recorder, keeps in
touch with his parish by portable
cellular telephones and travels to
Toronto to meet fellow horticulture
experts.
Somei's lifestyle shouldn't be so
surprising, after all, this is modern
Japan — a huge mass-consumer so
ciety where it's important to keep up
with the Satos while preserving cher
ished traditions.
Somei is part of those traditions,
having inherited from his father the
task of caring for the peaceful tem
ple and its 7,000 trees and plants.
People who know the eccentric
monk say he does remarkable things
with rare peonies. In the winter, he
covers them with little bamboo tee
pees to protect them from snow and
chilling winds. He even grows a vari
ety that blooms in the winter.
“He's the foremost expert in the
world on tree peonies,” said Henry
Landis, a Toronto peony expert and
former general counsel for the On
tario environment ministry. “The
man is really hooked on peonies.
When he saw my hybrid peonies his
jaw fell down and he simply said:
‘Ahhhhhh.’ ”
Somei has travelled to Toronto and
Hamilton, and has been in close con
tact with Landis since 1975, trading
plants back and forth across the
Pacific, Landis says Somei might
visit Toronto again in the spring.
Landis introduced the most impor
tant group of tree peonies outside of
Japan to Somei. The Lutea hybrid, as
it is called, was first developed by
Canadian William Saunders.
Back home, Somei greets 70,000
visitors a year, mostly Japanese, who
come to light incense to Amida Bud
dha at his temple's central shrine.
But for many the real attraction is the
peony trees and plants that have
made both this ancient temple and
Somei famous in Japan and among
peony lovers in Canada and the
United States. Somei loves to talk
about his beautiful plants and eager
ly invites tourists to visit his temple
and stay at his large guest house.
Tree peonies are so rare that ex
perts like Somei spend their lives try
ing to breed them. Most of his bloom
from April 20 to May 5 — though one
unusual variety spreads its scarlet
flowers in winter even while surroun
ded by deep white snow.
Somei says tending the plants is
an important part of his day-to-day
chores as a priest.
“We cut flowers from the trees,
put them in a vase and offer them to
Buddha,” he said through an
interpreter. “We think everything we
have is a gift from Buddha so we
think everything we have we should
offer ..to Buddha.”

Women of Jpnz. descent
best breast cancer survival
ATLANTA. — Researchers
in Hawaii have found that wo
men of Japanese descent
have a better chance of sur
viving breast cancer — the
most common cancer among
U.S. females — than women
in four other ethnic groups.
Researchers with The Na
tional Cancer Institute, The
Cancer Research Center of
Hawaii and the University of
Hawaii at Manoa studied the
survival rates for 2,956
women with breast cancer
between 1960 and 1979. Japa
nese women had the highest
rate of surviving more than
five years after diagnosis.
Chinese women's survival
rate was worse, proceeded by
Caucasians, Filipinos, and
Hawaiian (or part Hawaiian)
women.
The study, reported* by the
U.S. Centers for Disease Con
trol (CDG), compared survival
rates rather than actual num
bers of survivors, since diffe
rent numbers of women from
each ethnic group were stu
died to begin with.
The reasons for Japanese
women's higher cancer sur
vival rate are not really under
stood, said Dr. Leslie Boss, a
Peonies are perennials of the but
tercup family, often double-flowered
with large pink, white, red or yellow
blossoms.
Somei writes books and articles on
their care, lectures and often appears
on television in Japan. “He's not
monkish at all. He's a very modern,
enterprising businessman,” Landis
said.
Somei and his wife, Nobuko, live at
the temple in Nara prefecture, at the
base of a hill surrounded by rice pad
dies.
Their two university-educated
sons have taken jobs in large cities,
although Somei expects one will re
turn some day to take over the temple.
Parts of the temple date back to
the year 670 A.D. when it was built by
emperor Tenchi; the rest from 1810
when it was restored. The temple
complex consists of walls surround
ing separate buildings housing the
central shrine, Somei's home and a
large residence for at least a dozen

and roots,” Somei said, adding that
certain varieties were commonly us
ed to relieve what he called “wo
men's pains.”
Somei grows 660 varieties of peo

and is currently trying to graft a
