throat.
   When found by Housing

and Plumber W. S. Keith,
Nakano could only utter
two words--"Manzanar” and
"Granada.”   His clothes
were soaked, indicating
thet he either fell or
jumped into the river, ac-
cording to the police.

by Dr. Benjamin Higa, who

live if he had not suffered
too great loss of blood.
