Spark MatsuruJga on Statehood Mission

Our prexy has been selected to represent the Club 100 in conjunction with the Statehood Commission and Territorial legislators' all­out effort to get Congress to pass the State­hood bill. Veterans organizations have been asked to select representatives to plead for Statehood, and the Club 100 Board of Directors unanimously appointed Sparky, who previously made an eloquent plea before Congress for Statehood's cause.

The Statehood junket has become a con­troversial political "hot potato" with so many so vehemently opposed to the size of the con­tingent and to the cost of the whole trip. Be as it may, the Club 100 has felt that the issue of Statehood is of prime importance and with the passage of the bill so close at hand, we should back the Statehood Commission solidly instead of bickering among ourselves inHawaii at this most crucial moment.

Puka Puka Parae! J! VET'S TERMITE CONTROL WIPED OUT

A fire that swept through several businel! establishments on Ward St. in the early hoUl' of the morning completely razed theVtI! Termite Control business. Bill Kom oda c Baker Co., who had started the establishlll8l seven years ago, suffered considerably as onl

Ol~ 'G

a small part of his loss was covered by in ? surance .

It was on Sunday, May 2nd that ithappenec But the following wee k starting on Monda) Bill was far from dis-illusioned but pitche ,do right in to clean up the debris to start anell ay He was encouraged no doubt by the fact thE '1 t volunteers from the Club 100 rallied to his ai Ins by cleaning up the ton s of debris every da 1 I after working hours. h(

We are glad to say that Bill may be dow ~O( temporarily, but he definitely is not out. Hi re

wife had just come home fr om the hospital t "'Y recuperate after an operation, but Bill is tak hal ing everything in good stride.

A little kokua on our part, a little word a encouragement from each of us can mea. much to Bill. Let us help Bill k e e p up hi: confidence and his faith by helping himiJeam whatever way we can and by remembering hin in our prayers. A

A A

How much harm has been done for !hI B cause of Statehood by this bickering remain: B to be seen but we are not interested in!h, C political aspect of the thing. Spark Matsunag: C represents the Club 100 as a veteran organiza D tion without political affiliation. We are pri· H marily interested in seeing to it that we ar. H not treated as "second class citizens", un· BI worthy of statehood. (Continued on page 8 M

ABLE CHAPTER NEWS Jitsuo Kobayashi, an established photog­

rapher in Milwaukee, took two weeks off from squinting in his camera to visit the islands for the first time since 1942. The former weapons platoon member of Company "A" astounded his many friends by still talking like a Buddha Head. Quote: "After all, you no can teach an old dog new tricks, you know." He is happily married and father of two children. Jits re­ported that "Margua" Toyama (A) who boards with him is dOing fine. Wally Hisamoto, another Able Company member, also makes his home in the city made famous by a well known brand of beer.

Congratulations are in order for Mr. and Mrs. Chikami Hirayama who greeted their first child 0 n April 13th. The newly born Signorina ann 0 un c e d her candidacy for the 1972 Cherry Blossom Queen contest from her ward in one of the local maternity hospitals. We hear "Chick" has already started to hustle for ballots on her behalf .

Able Company's committee to nominate the Man of the Year is chaired by Robert Mori. Assisting him are Paul Shirai and Tomeki Ni­shioka.

The Naoji Yamagata's have taken up resi­dence at 3022 Kahaloa Place. All paisans are

Puka Puka Para t.!'! cordially invited to visit their place. A tl Ul hint was passed to us by "Yama" the other dl pa blue collar workers or pencil pushers plea don't dress-up when paying a call. Fatlg uniforms will do .

Jiro Matsui's Honolulu Aquarium & p Supplies A -1 aggregation captained by Blacl Mori was given a nice tap on the back at t last A b I e Company meeting for winning t Club 100 twelve inch pennant. That makes OR two softball championships for Company A fare the year. And now for the bowling honors. J

And speaking of bowling; team captai egg Carl Morioka, Yutaka Inouye and Etsu Seki la\ are busy lining up their men for the comi pI seasun. parE

And speaking of E ts u Sekiya reminds I ju of the fact that he has moved his Gard WE

Paul Shirai, Goro Sum ida, Torao Mori and Richard Nakahara did the bang-up job.

The next Fun Night program is slated for June. Latest available dope points to it being (deservedly) deSignated as Fa the r' s Night. Wives and children (we understand) have vol­unteered to h 0 nor their "Old Man" (about time) for his devoted r 0 I e in slaving at his work to provide support for the family, for his pleasant companionship, for being a pillar of strength in time of need, etc., etc.

Ladies of Company A t his is an order: YOU BETTER PITCH-IN (please) with your best efforts and really honor your mates even if they may be "tonkichis" (at times). Stand by for further orders! As you were! Instruc­tions:

Be kind and next year we may have a Ladies Night.

After the egg hunt: it looks like good hunt­ing for all the Able Co. offsprings, every one of whom is better looking than the "old man". (Craig Stevens Photo)
