Sandi of Time
we Sl'e mortal, the lime b"arne within which we each make our contribution is limited, for In the end, we all must die. The footprnts on the sands ot time wbich we leave behind us may be obliterated by the winds ot fate or washed away by the waters ot time. In a few instances, the winds ot fate and the waters of tim., coalesce with footprints on the sands into an indestructible, eternal and timeless symbol or monument to mankind. In the rare instances when such an event happens. man becomes immot1al.
Unfortunately. out of the coountless mUlions of people who pass through this earth, only the footprints of a very select few are ever impressed permanenUy on the sands of time. These are our uberoes" who inspire us in one way or another. In today's world, the ''heroes'' of our youth and of our elders differ quite dramaticaUy. Regardless, each permits us to .4 make our lives sublineu in different ways.
What was good for yesterday is not necessarily good for today and what is good today will not necessarily be good for tomorrow. The ability to adapt to change and to make the change adaptable to the society of today and tomorrow Is the challenge that lays before this generation and the leneratioos to come.
Never before in our sooiety have the people been conu:onted with the demand and need tor change than exists today. The unbelie\'able and astronomical increase in the population of this world is frightening. It is frightening because the sharp increase has taken place mainly within the last few generations. The a rithmetic progression of man's ability to cope with the multitude of mankind's probll!ms created by the geometric progression of man's birth rate is nothing less than catastrophic. 11 the present birth l'3te continues, both China and India will have a population of five billion people apiece and the population of Mexico may well exceed both by the year 2000. I have no doubt of the physical capacity of this earth to hold such a population and perhaps more. My question is the commitment and toreslght of the people to ad.quately feed, nurture and maintain a peaceful and meaningful society for such a population growth.
It will take great men and great people to cope with the population explosion and the intricate and perplexing problems abundant and mass culture will produce. With the anability of the people on this earth to solve the problems of health, nubition, racism, pollution, war, crime, delinquency, ad infinitium, at the p resent. lime, how do the people of this earth expect to solve such problems in the futw"'e when the source of the problems - people - is multiplied by incredible proportions? Perhaps, at the astonIshing rat. we are heading into the abysmal maelstrom, we need not fear the fale nor future of us all because we shall mutually enjoy the inevitable and the footprints on the sands a! time may literally be all that will remain.
• • The dim ens ion! of the
war Ids problems certainly make the problems of JACL ~m lnfinilesimaL However, the vantage point from which we view the problems most certainly determlnes the qual. ity and quantity of the problems. From my vantage pOint, I view the problems as not insurmountable if we do not t.ry to solve all of the problems of the world. We have, fortunately, the opportunity to grip firmly and tlghUy the .handle to some very important geal''' to help steer the course of our organization Into the grand prix of the huMan race.
• Ince the tremendo\1$ ef
tort exerted to repeal Title II of the Intental Security Act o! 1950 has culminated in final success. our concerted efforts must now be focused on a nallonal program to help cure the llls of Our society.

NEAll PRISON PAlM M.I.S. VETS ASK Detention camp set up under Title II MIKE MASAOKA
PACIFI ITIZE discovered shorf drive from Bay city TO ADDRESS FETE SAN FRANCISCO - A otartling discovery ""as made Sept. 19 that there Ls In existence a detention facility no more than a halI-hour drive from downtown San Francisco.
Located off the main highway US 580 to Stockton on the outskirts of Oakland on Tassajara Road and adjacent to Alameda County's Santa Rita Prison Farm is the site of the former U.S. Anny Camp Shoemaker.
The &ite io completely encircled with barbed wire fences. A large sign states: "U.S. ARMY RESTRICTED AREA, Admittance by Permission Only, Pursuant to Section 21, Internal Securtty Act of 1950 (50 U.S.C. 797)."
Although the sign shows indications of being weather beaten, the large black letter. clearly give the ominous warning that the former army camp could be quickly converted into a detention camp, similar to the World War 11 assembly centers locat.d at Taruoran, Santa Anita, Sacramento.) Fresno, and other We s t Coast cities. Old barracks buildings, and other facilities are in fairly reasonable condition.
The discovery of the former camp site and the threatening signs mentioning the Internal Security Act of 1950 was made by a f.ilm crew from the Japan Broadcasting Corporation who were in the Bay area to video tape an interview with San Francisco Nisei, Edison Uno. co-chairman o! the JACL's Committee to Repeal Detention Camp Leg-

Filmlnr DocumeDlaT7
The Japan Broadcasting Corporation is completing a documentary film on the Japanese Americans in the United States and with the imminent repeal ot TiUe II, they wanted to film a segment of their interview with a prison· like background. Santa Rita Prison was selected as the site because it resembles wartime internment camps wIth similar watchtowers, barbed wire fences, barracks, and othe.r reminders of Japanese American detention centers.
By pure accident, the camera crew discovered the signs posted on the former site of Camp Shoemaker. During the inlerview, the Alameda County Sheriff's Department intervened and took all five participants into temporary custody.
No arrests or charges were made; however, afte.r II 40-minute detention at the headquarters of the Sheriff's oUice inside the compounds at Santa Rita. the "suspects" were released and warned not to take any film or photographs within the county prison farm.
Filming was concluded at the original sign on Tassajara Road after deputies refused pennission to take scenes of Santa Rita guard towers r rom outside the main entrance.
"The treatment by Alameda County Sheriff's Department was civi1 but cautious; they were suspicious of our explanation, and were totally ignorant about the Tille II issue or the existence of the signs posted on the fences concerning the Internal Security Act of 1950." Uno reported.
uThe temporary detention and suspicious nature of our treatment by the county prison officials was an ex 'Perience that made the entire episode a very relevant assignment for Japan Broadcasting Corporation officials," Uno said adding: "If President Nixon signs the repeal bill on his desk, Alameda County officials can legally remove the signs, they did not know existed."
TYPICAL CASES OUTLINED

Abe Hagiwara Memorial awards today By DR. R.OY M. lIo"ISHlKAWA ChaJrman,. Student AJd Pro,ram
1V111lt are the Abe Hllgiwllrtl aWllrds? Whllt i.s the Nlltional J ACL Student Program?
Perhaps the best way to answer these questions is to give examples of the type of student receiving aid from the program.
Tbe foUowing are composite pictures of students who have received grants in the past when the Student Aid Program was operated on a pilot basis in the PacWc Southwest District Council during 1969 and 1970.
Names and circumstances have been disguised since it is a policy of the Student Aid Committee to keep aU applications confidential.

l\n.cOD •• ptlon~
Because 01 the newness of the program, there are many misconceptions about the Abe Haglwara Memorial Awards. You don't have to be a delinquent to qualify. You don't have to be starving to quality (although one of the past grantees had budgeted only $5 per week for food).
Nor do you have to be a regular college student. Students in junior colleges, trade and technical schools and even high schools may also qualify. A partial scholarship to the Control Data Institute in Los Angeles I. also a,>allable to needy students interested in comput.r programming.
What ar. the criteria for receiving the Hagiwara Grants under the J ACL Student Aid Program?
l-l-ot"£!D (not aU Japan ..
American fam.Dles a.re affluent) 2-MOTIVATION (The student
must have a strong desire to continue in school)
3-A B I LIT Y (A satisfactory ~e~) average must be maJn-
What's the catch? There is none. Students are so conditioned to the "merit" t y p e scholarships that they always ask this question.
The grants by JACL a I' e given outright with no strings attached. The Student Ajd Committee's basic philosopby may be summed up as follows: "We are more interested in the potential for growth and development of the needy and deserving student - not in his past records. We want to give help and encouragement to those students with the greatest need and motivation."
Whenever possible, applicants are personally interviewed. They may be given other forms of aid such as information about student loans, the Educational Opportunities Program, government grants, etc.
The amount of financial aid is kept flexible and is gO\'erned by individual needs and by the total amount of funds available. In the 1 a s t two years , twenty grants ranging from $100 to $300 were made.
Scope BroadellS
This year with additional financing from National JACL a total of $4,000 will be distributed nationally. Five re,-ional subcommittees have been formed.
All of the grants this year are made in honor of Abe Hagiwara, a former JACLer of the Biennium from Chicago and a pioneer in the JACL Youth Program. RecenUy a fund drive was launched in Hagiwara's memory. Tbese funds will be placed in a permanent fund with only interest to be used in supplementing the National JACL funding.
The drive IS being spearheaded by Kathy Kadowaki 01 Cleveland, Ohio, the first Sansei and Junior JACLer to
ever head up a national drive of this nature. Contributions to the tund may be seDt to Miss Kadowaki at 7651 Koch Drive, Parma, Ohio, 44134.

Tbe seven who spent the summer putting it togeth. were Katherine Foss, Mon Kanakamaikai, Merle Kobatake, Ann Nishimoto, Nancy S. Ota, Wilfred Hokama and Dolores Kaaikala.
"We want to correct a rac· ulty misconception that local kids are not verbal," Mis s Foss said. And students are advised by their youthful instructors Uto no speak pejen en fron otba peeple".

President Nixon signs bill to affirm repeal of Title II SAN FRANCISCO-President Nixon's signature on the repeal bills to eliminate Title n of t. h e Internal Security Act of 1950 has been halled as a victory fo rthe Japanese Americans Citizens League's four year campaign.
On Saturday, Sept. 25, upon his arrival at Portland, Oregon airport, President Nixon announced that he had signed the repeal bill passed two weeks earlier by the House and Senate.
The repeal campaign culminated four years of legislative activity by th e JACL's National Committee to Repeal Detention Camp Legislation. a mandate adopted hy the organization's National Council at its national convention held in San Jose in August, 1968.

Buy traveler's checks in $10 and $20 for cODvenience of exchanging. Anywhere. even at small shops, in smaller town •.
Inexpensive and space-saving gifts to pack back. How about watermelon spoons, long-stemmed, and with fork tines up front? Or, ice cream spoons that fit your mouth?
Coffee good and thick but not t.o American tastes. Milk not so good. Butter and ice cream poor.
Wardrobe. Choose travelwise fabrics, that retain press. Choose only what you feel and look good in. Mix and match. Coordinate. Good rule on washables - one to wear. one to wash, one spare. For the men-one suit, one sport, one sweater.
Men will like the 100% polyester shirts while on tour. Arrow has white, solids and stripes that drip-dry in 2 hours, called uT r a v el e r.n Laundry savings will recover the $8.50 outlay.

Basically the functioD 01 OEO bas been to be an advocate tor the poor in thIs country, Some oI the programs that have been Inlliated by OEO are: Job Corps, UrbanRural Community AcUon pro-1P'ams. VISTA, Employment and Investment Incentive programs. Work Experience and Day Care programs, and many other programs designed I<> belp the poor.
The Nixon Administration bas come under altack by various organlzaUons for its proposals to alter the nalure of OEO by culling out some of the responsibilities and funding at OEO. In May ot this year JACL joined with nearly 100 naUonal organizations In urging Congress I<> extend OEO and to retain inbet the OEO programs. At tbe Congressional hearings on OEO, JACL's Washington Office's statement called for the extension 01 OEO and called specific attention to the pUgbt ot Japanese American communities that could be helped by assistance trom OEO procrams.
I w.. most Interested to meet PresIdent Nixon'. newly nominated Direcl<>r at OEO In Ught at the controversy that oro had experienced In \he past tew months. A few days ago, with the various oraanlzations that bave an interest in OEO, I attended a ipecial briefing at which time we met the new Director and had a chance I<> speak with him concerning OEO issues and to pose questions directly to Mr. Sanchez.

The California Jaycees named him one ot the five outstanding young men In 1963. Numerous olber positions Indicate that .. a young man of 41 he Is very quallfied for the position. Very personable with a dlsarming smile and a pleasant manner ot speecb, he bandied some very pointed and someLimes hosttle questions witb a series of well tbought out, uncontroversW replles which indicated to me that he had done his homework in anticipation 01 the meetlng.-Question. relaUng to the Nixon AdmJnis!ration'. courting of Spanishspeaking people's votes through the appointment of Mexican American. to high level positions implled that Sanchez WR. '\\'Ddow dressing tor the AdmlnJstration; questions relating to the proposals to strip OEO of programs and money wbich would eliminate the voice of the poor people in Washington, and many question. relating to specific programs were handled very eIflciently by Mr. Sanchez even though many of Ihose attending remained skeptical.
Stepping to the microphone I Introduccd ID,l'self to the new Direcl<>r and remarked tbat a. I bad been listenIng to the proceedings I had noted many programs tor Balcks, Me"ican AmerIcans. American Indians, poor whites, In addItion to a myriad of other gen· eral programs. And while those In need certainly desente attention, no matter what color they may be, I wondered about the statement tbat OEO bad more or les. formulaled programs for all minority groups. The reason I was concerned was not so much because in the briefing session Japanese AmerIcans had not been mentioned (althougb that dId bother me in view of tbe sweeping generalizations that minority groups are being attended to by OEO) but more so because a few days betore a young Jlat! member trom OEO had come to speak to me concemlne Asian American problem •. His assignment was to come up wIth a program that described the varIous minority group culfural and community problems so that OEO stat! people could become sensitive to the people they are supposed to help. I had asked the OEO person why he had come to JACL. His reply was that while the majority ot other minority groups had employees In hIgh level jobs at OEO who could supply the n e c e • s a r y background tor thelr groups, the Japanese Americans and Allian Americans were not represented at OEO In Washington.

After relating thi. I<> Mr. Sanchez I asked him It he had any idea as I<> the problems that some Asian Americans tace in their communities and it not did he have a high level person on hls stat! ,vbo was knowledgeable on the subject. Hi. reply to both questions was a long rambUng answer which a.mounted to ''no''.

The majority of those perIOns attending this particular session were Washington RepTesentatives of civil rights or minority grOUP organlzations. One by one quesUons were asked concerning OEO·. progalDS for Blacks, Cblcanos, American Indians, and women. Mr. S.nchez had answer. to these questions citing various high-level appointees In OEO who were members of the questioners Own ethnic minority group who were working specifically on problems taclng that minority group. As I listened to the dialogue between the various questioners and Mr. Sanchez, I was impressed with the knowledge lhe Director possessed 01 the problems taclng the various ethnic groups. But it bothered me that amid all
My final conunents were that In Ilgbt ot the stereotypes that exist concerning the untroubled condltions of Asian American communities that It may be explainable why OEO has not addressed. itself to some ot our problellU; but that, nevertheless, Asian Americans do have problem. and that OEO needs I<> act to eUmlnate these problems; and finally that with no J apanese American or AsIan American in a polley poSition I<> educate OEO tbat there exist. a problem in our communities, the realistic chances that something would be done I<> help tbem ls very sUm. The moderator then hurriedly went on to another question.
On the way out at the conclusion of the meeting I shook hands with Mr. Sanchez and he suggested that something would be done to make sure Japanese Americans would be represented In OEO. Hopetully, OEO will respond by sensitlzlng Itsel! to Asian American community need. and by appointing someone knowledgeable In the Asian American community to a high posItion at OEO.
Perhaps this Is too much to expect but it become. evident to me more and mare as time goes on that tew people understand Japanese AmerIcan. and most vIew Us In terms at stereotypes rather than a. Individuals who range tram the very excellent to the very me ... dlocre In all aspects at Ufe.
TOKYO-Can you lell people who are not likeiy to return borrowed money from those who are?
Following a 1" e lOme blnts oUered by a Tokyo firm Spl>clollting In the business at extending loans to salaried men.
After so.me 4,000 ot the 187,-000 persons who were lent money by the firm, located In the Ginza, were either unable or unwllllng to pay back thelr borrowings, the firm set about to compile a list ot characleristics common at such people for future use.
One &Toup ot undesirables, according to the firm, is composed of those wearing the latest fasbions and those haviog handsome looks.
The firm advises to beware at those wearing expensIve suits and wrist watches. Pursuit ot lopmost fashions naturally entalls buge expenses and it is quite reasonable that such persons are usually sbort of money.
Whereas pretty women, admired by the opposite sex, are «enerally rich, ugly ones are not to be welcomed, accordIng I<> the Ilrm.
In a similar context, haodsome men are Ukely I<> be • hort of ready cash because they have more chances ot mixing with girls.
Another group not liked by money lenders Is composed of those who declare too 01-ten, "I am a man /' boastIng at the high socIal rating of their companies and showing too much eloquence In speech. SummarIzing this group, the Ilrm says the y usually do not pay much respecl to money.
LIstless persons, those with ruWed hair, those wllh records of man y tra!tic acel-

dents and those with one ostentatious point in thelr clothing form another group whIch the firm terms "schizophrenic." People of this type are quIte often liars, the researchers indicate.
People without • wrist watch are also suspect alnce thls Indlcates habitual ulillz.tion of pawnshops.
Slovenly people constitute anolher group. Such persons often have unhappy homes where quarrels are routine. Bodily scars are also signs ot a quarrelsome nature.
Those dashing lnl<> the attice just before closln, time or those changing their appUcation conditions according to the response ot lenders are not dependable. They also include rnany liars.
Wit h everyone on a tight squeeze for money these days, money lenders can't be too careful. For t1>at matter, WHO can?

Tajlrl, the war time editor ot The Pacific Cltl1.en, had gone on to become the nallonallY respected drama editor of The Denver Post when he was felled by a stroke. Out of the dlscu .. lon at tha t luncheon came the Idea for the Larry Tajlr l Memorial Foundation whose primary function would be to encourage communl~ theater, for which Tajlrl had a deep arrecllon.
The Federation of Western Outdoor Clubs has unani mously condemned the H· Three Highway, citing possible adverse environmental consequences.

One of the chief concerns ot those at the meeting was that the Foundation, once it w"," organiled, must not be permitted 10 fade away like so many weil-Intentioned movements from dwindling interest. A$ it turned out ti,e fear was unfounded. Perhaps it was that those who organized the Foundation prepared vcry . ound groundworkJ or maybe It was that the whole idea was timely and appropriate.

Some men In the highly specialized proCession oC wTltlng about the tbeater make their reputations by merciless faultfinding, by vitriol and cruel wit.

What Is Important to note Is the wide r ange 01 persons wh.o were honored-the executive dlrector of a Denver community theater, the theater and drama consutant at the University ot Colorado, the guiding light oC a children's theater movement., the leader of an amateur theaWcal group In the city oC Pueblo, a radio and t.levlsion personaHty, and a .peelal award to the inmates o f the state penitentiary ior their activities In theatrical p roductions.
The speaker of the evening Was Morton GotUieb, co-prod ucer of the current Broad" 'ay h it, "Sleuth" which Is IIOld out until next year somet ime. And the entertainment w.. a screening of experl-
While La r r y ultimately made writing about the theater his calling, he would bave been equally brilliant as a • p 0 r t s columnist, edltorlal writer or politic,at commenta· tor. The cause of civil rights burned fiercely In him although h. was a genUe man. Some time, as a matter of record, The Pacific Citizen might consider reprinting some ot his war t l m e editorials In booklet Corm. It is deplorable that more Sansei could not have known Larry, a quiet Nisei who left an Indelible mark.

Prejudice: How About You? The word prejudlc. Is gen
erally defined to mean "a preconceived and unreasonable judgment or opinion, usually an unfavorable 0 n e marked by suspicion, fear, intolerance, or hatred."
L Ike tbe-old sayln« goeo, "Practice what you preach."
How can we expect and advocate racial equality when many ot the members oC our community are among the most prejudlced persons to be found?
Through the ettort of each Individual bel n g constantiy aware ot his own prejUdices and a lways striving to elimJnate those prejudices, the goal of racial equality may some· day become a reality.
Everyone. mainly through early learning. has formed e.rtaln prejudices to w a r d their fellow man . However, p rejudice, as a learned be . h avior, can be unlearned. But this process Is extremely difficult and lakes an extraordinary amount of eUoTt by an indi\' idua l who is dedicated to and constantly aware ot the Subway train bid goal of eliminating his own prejudices.

The idea was conceived by Talchl Sato and Tsun. lchl Yo.mamoto who asked Japanese consul general Akir .. Yoshioka to help them obtain funds lor the .chools. Money, it Is understood, will be used to raise teachers' salaries and to improve teaching methods.

Bunraku: The Classic Manipulators Imagln. for & mOlllent U
you will a Puncb and Judy show with three loot h I g h puppets performing the opera Aida. This is roughly parallel to role played by BUN· RAKU In the Japanese Theatre.
The use of puppets is a widely found lheatrical form . Most puppels can be classified in one of two ways: as 8
guignol, or a puppet manipulated by hand, or as a marionette, which is operated by means ot wires or strings. The puppets used In Bunraku is an eastern blending ot both styles.
Aside from the puppets themselves there are three v.ry buman elements to Bun· raku. First is the Tayu or narrator whose (unction It Is to recite lhe J oruri or epic poem which has been rendered Into dramatic torm. Second, is the Shamisen play. r whose role it is to create the musical atmosphere tor the play. Finally there are the puppeteers who are known as the Om<>-zukai , the Hidarl-lukai, and the Asbl-l ukal.
Each Indlvldnal pup pet weighs In at from 13 to 40 pounds, and is made up of
• eve r a 1 component parts which can be detaebed trom each other . The wooden head of each doll is a work oC .rt in Itself. Many of the heads, especially those of the 0 I d men are considered masterpieces ot the carv.r's art.
The head Is controlled by Inserting a rod from the neck through a hole In the shoul· der plate. Thls shoulder plate Is known as the Kala-i ta and corresponds to the collarbone. The puppet's arms and legs are hung from the Kala-Ita by string. The costume Is placed over the should.r board and bamboo rods are attached to the neck rod to form the hips.
Puppets playing major roles are generaliy manipulated by three men, while puppets In the lesser roles may be handled by one or two m.n. The leader ot a Bunraku t.am Is the Om<>-lukal who uses his left hand to hold the puppet up. Using hi. thumb and index finger , the Omo-lukal suppor ts the weight oC the doll, then using his remaining tilree tlnge(s he controls the strings that move the eyes, mouth, and eyebrows.
The puppet'. lett arm It operated by the H1darl·zukai who must work In pertect coordlnation with the Omo-zukai If the whole movement Is to appear natural. Perhaps the m 0 s t physically demanding job i. that of the third memo ber of the team, the A$hizukal. He hu to move the "L" shaped hooks attached to the rear of the puppet's heels to sUmulate movemenL
If YOlj lOOk caretuUy you will note that only tl)e male characters have real teet wbjle the movemenl$ of the woman are Indlcated by the A$hl-zukal mo\1ng the hern ot her dress. One rea,on that this is a laxing a"l&runent In th. t the A. hI·zukal must r.m a I n In a l toopln, poeture during the p.rformance.

Supreme (ourt Vacancies
When President Nison _s lnaucurated almost three ,ean agO, we recall commenting that bls most lasting contributions to the American scene migbt well be in his appointments to tbe Supreme Com't of lbe United States, since even at that time It seemed that several of its nine members were on the verge of retirement for one reason 0)' another. And, since justices are appointed for life, it could be prelUlned that some ot tbe President's appointees would serve beyond his own term. or terms, in the presidency.
Last week's resignations, 101' bealth reasons in both cases, of Associate Justices Hugo L. Black of Alabama and J ohn M. Harlan of New York, provides tbe President witb the opportunily to name two more justices to the nation's court of last resort.
Since be bas already named Chief Justice Warren E. Burger and Justice Harry Blackmun, both of Minnesota, to the COWltry 'S highest tribWlal, il appears abnost cedain th.at the higbest appellate court in the land will soon be, if not already. a NLxon Court.
Jus!ice Black ",as a moder• te liberal and, a1lbougb be aided with lbe majolity in tbe wartime cases involving Japanese Americans, his voting record on civil and individual rights was outstanding. On the other hand, Justice Harlan was a conservative and less an activist in his interpretations of the law tban his older colleague wbo retired a few days earlier than be.
Inasmuch as the SupreIM Court determines the constitutionality or both congressionally enacled statutes and executive actions, and thereby establishes precedents tbat often govern for decades and
1948 did provide partial COlDpensation for some of the property losses suffered as a consequence of tbat mass military movement in 1942, thel'e is litUe question that lhe reimbursemenl amount.ll,g to about ten cents on a dollar, without interest, at World War II prices, was most inadequate.
Frankly, we would like to see the Congress reopen this whole issue of compensation. or reparations, or wha~ver it ougbt to be called and sanction a more equitable, generous, and expeditious program.
Of course, major Cl"edit for the success of lbe repeal etfOl't sbould go lo Congressman Spark MatsWlaga and Senator Daniel Inouye, both of Hawaii, without whose leadersbip lbe congressional en act men t would not have been possible. Each in their own way, working behind lbe scenes and invoking their personal prestige and parliamentary know-bow, assured success in their respective chambers. That they were so successful is a real tribute to the esteem and aifection eacb enjoys as lawmakers from the Aloha State.

On racial slur
Dear Editor: I am tired of a game some
while people p I a y called a "Chinese fire drill." During tbis procedure, they run amok without any apparent control, thal is, like whi te people.
Aitel' Alabama defeated tile football team ot the University of Southern California, Coach John McKay cbaracterized his team's poor performance by saying Uley Hplayed like some Chinese firemen."
Compared to th e instilutional racism in the Uni ted Slates, such thougbUess remarks may not be lbe most pressing problem facing lbe Asian American community today; nevertheless, be sbould apologize publicly.

Picnic woes Edilor:
Tbe Bay Al'ea Community JACL bad initially planned 10 participate in the " community day" picnj~ in San Francisco on Oct. 10. However, due to cerlain critical changes in local and international conditions, our chapter voted to wilbdraw from participation.
Five months agol the San Francisco Japanese Community Youth Council invited our cbapter to participate in the picnic because they were trying to build a Bay Area wide community feeling. We decided to combine with, and expand on, the "Japanese Boal" picnic which had been held. in San Francisco for a number of years.

An Open Letter Dear Editor:
In recognition of Ray Okamura, wbo laid out lbe initial groWldwork for the JACL campaign 10 repeal Titie II, I wisb to take Ulis opportunity to offer my bigbest respect for his determined and unflinching efforts. His was an unusual feat in unifying the efforts of members througbout the nation for one cause.
His conlributions of thousands of bours of time and energy in the mobilization ot support, planning the slrategy. writing letters and memos. nlaking presentatioDS, etc., should receive lbe higbest commendation. Througb his e...xample many have come torward ot offer their services.
Not baving the sligbtest idea of tbe monumenlal task before us, I joined tbe TiUe II Committee soon after its inception in Southern California under the skillful leadership of Dr. Bob Suzuki. It was truly an educational experience.
Other leaders wbo mad .. great contributions were Bob Takasugi, wbo per s on a 11 y challenged tbe House Commit. tee on Internal Seem'ity, Edi son Uno. and Hiroshi Kanno. I 'm sure there were others but these fellows were outstanding.

There are a number of Wl-usual factors aboul this baltle CODrratulatlona and the final victol'Y. Until the later onsel of black and brown community con c ern about lbe possible use of TiUe n to imprison dissenters and Utose holding unpopular bellers. the J ACL was about lbe only organization fighting aggressively on a national scale for repeal. Tbe extent of public support generated was tbus remarkable.
Another factor was the lowbudget campaign waged by JACL. Compared to tbe big money spent by lobbyists in major legislative efforts, the J ACL's allocation was indeed minimal. As usual our biggest investment was tbe brain power and sweat of dedicaled voJWlteers.

Ray and Edison Uno, cocbail1uen of tbe repeal campaign, share a well deserved senee of satisfaction and achievement from this significant victory. All tbe JACLers, who did lbe behind-thescenes and Wlpublicized legwork for several frustrating years. ma,y rightfully feel good.
The legislative leadership of Congressman Spark Matsunaga and Senalor Daniel Inouye was, probably more than anything else. responsible {or this win against the odds.

In past years, only one "training ship" of tbe J apanese "Self-Defense Force" has been involved. However, this year, we learned that an entire "fleet" w:ill make the port call in San Francisco. wit b the Pacific Fleet Admiral in command. Tbe fleel will involve some 700 o(ficers and sailors. wbo will be bigbly visible in their uniforms at the San Francisco picnic, and lbere will be no way their presence can be de-emphasized .
Most importantly. United States-Japan relations are currently in the most strained state Since World War II. Today, Americans are already acutely aware of J apan's economic power, and a visible show of Japan's military slrengtb in San Francisco Bay can result in negative public reaction.

We are entering a v e r y tense pbase in United StatesJapan relations, and, as in lbe past, J apanese Americans \vill be intimately affecled. We cannot ignore the fact that we Americans of Japanese ancest.ry are still identified as. "Japanese". and we can anticipate racist bostility to be dlrected against us again.
