| What's so

funny on
J I Jpnz. TV
By JIM HENRY
TUBE VIEWS. — “What's
so funny?” is a phrase that
crosses my mind several
times an evening when I
watch Japanese TV comedy.
What's so funny about a
hapless baseball player get­
ting hit in the nose with a wild
i
pitch? The people in the
studio audience scream with
delight as I shudder in
vicarious pain.
NHK, the government TV
S'
station, looked into the situa­
tion and took a poll to deter­
mine what makes people
£laugh. According to the
results of the poll, the rea­
sons people laugh have been
changing over the years. The
poll divided humor broadcast
on TV into 26 types and then
J
asked those polled which
they preferred.
Viewers between the ages
of 16 and 24 chose “laughter
aroused by a collection - of
bloopers in professional
baseball.”
That is why there are so
many programs showing the
errors, mistakes and injuries
that occur during games.
People obviously get a big
kick out of this semi-sadistic
stuff. Studio audiences split
their sides laughing. Is there
something funny about all
this? I'd like to know.
Next down the line for this
age group was “laughter
aroused by a collection of
mistakes and failures during
TV problems” and finds
pleasure in other people's
failures. In third place for this
group
was
“laughter
resulting from cosmopolitan
chic comedy.” Well, at least
they have some taste.
Flipping around the chan­
nels on any given afternoon
or evening would confirm
that the biggest guffaws are
indeed inspired by people sit­
ting on whoopee cushions, or
getting pies in the face, etc.
Genuine wit is hard to find.
People between the ages of
40 and 59 had different ideas
about comedy than those in
, their teens and early 20s.
Most popular was “humane,
warm laughter.”
But in second place was
“baseball bloopers,” and in
third was “laughter brought
about by the actions of
animals and amusing actions
of young children.”
In other words, “kawaii”

NEW YORK. — Eastman
Kodak Co. persuaded the Uni­
versity of Rochester to drop a
Japanese student who work­
ed for the company's rival,
the Fuji Photo Film Co., because he would have shared
classes with Kodak employ­
ees, The New York Times has
reported.
Kodak said that the pres­
ence of Tsuneo Sakai in the
two-year master's degree
program at the William E.
Simon School of Business,
starting this fall, may have
bothered its own employees
in the program, according to
the Times.
Kodak said in a statement
that its senior and middle
level managers enrolled at
the business school “would
feel inhibited in discussions
and/or reviewing case studies
for fear of revealing propriety
information.”
Kodak, which gave. $625,000 to the university last year,

said it did not threaten or
force school officials to res­
cind their acceptance of Sa­
kai, who worked in Fuji' s new
products division.
The Simon School said it
placed Sakai in the Sloan
School of Management at the
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology before rescin­
ding his enrolment.
In a statement, the school
said it was worried “about a
possible constraint Mr. Sa­
kai's presence might pro­
duce on the free exchange
of information in the class­
room.”
It said Sakai's background
in product development “pro­
duced an isolated incident
in the history of the Simon
School” that “in no way
reflects any policy in place.”
The University of Rochester
received a large portion of
its endowment from George
Eastman, founder of Eastman
Kodak.
