       SKETCHES
   Keichi "Kay" Sugahara's
most tragic day was when a
fire broke out in the junior
high school dormitory on the
afternoon of his graduation
day, destroying his fine
clothes for the evening's
occasion.   He was forced to
borrow someone else's appar-
el; so Kay didn't graduate
in his own clothes.
   The foregoing incident is
just one of the countless
tragedies that occurred in
his 34 years.   He lost his
parents before he was 12
years old.
   From  that time on, Kay
worked his way through
school, subsequently re-
ceiving his BA in economics
at UCLA in 1932.   Ever since
1928,he was engaged in the
brokerage business, and in
1933 Kay organized the Uni- 
versal Foreign Service to-
gether with two Caucasians,
specializing  in Oriental
customs trade. 
   He is
credited
with being
one of the
organizers
of the an-
nual nisei
festival
and the 
queen con-
test held in the Southland.
He has long been one of the
most prominent figures in
JACL circles.
   Today, Kay is a great
orator--self-made.   He re-
members the time when he was
just a bashful tyke, but
decided that in order to
succeed  in the world one
must have one of three es-
sential assets--money, fam-
ily standing, and personal
position.   He lacked all
these so he was advised to
learn the art of speaking--
speaking before huge crowds
--which he successfully mas-
tered.
  When Kay is inducted into
the nisei combat unit, he
will leave behind his wife
and three sons--Kaytaro and
twins, Bryan and Byron.
   His pet theory, taken
from his collection of
newspaper and  magazine
clippings:  "A strong char-
acter is not made by easy
living."
