Page 4 PIONEER November 7, 1942 Thumbnail SKETCHES A traveler, historian, and athlete is Rev. Lester E. Suzuki, chairman of the English division of the Granada Christian church. For six years preceding the evacuation order, Rev. Suzuki was a minister at the Los Angelas Japanese Methodist church and helped to construct the first ni- sei chapel in the United States. Rev. Suzuki spent his early childhood in Hawaii and later moved to the main- land. He graduated from San Jose high sohool in 1927 and was the first ni- sei to receive a degree from San Jose State college when he graduated in 1931. During his college years he was a varsity track star. A year of study at the Huff School of Theology in Denver and further post graduate work at the Drew Theological seminary in New Jersey followed, and in 1934 and 1935 he received degrees of bachelor of divinity and master of arts at the sem- inary. His first experience as a full-fledged minister came at Wapato, Wash., in 1935. In the following year, Rev. Suzuki made a extensive tour throughout the Far East and visited Shanghai, Hongkong, Manila, and many Japanese cities. Rev. Suzuki has had per- sonal contacts with such reknown men as Bishop Abe, organizer of the Japanese Church of Christ, and Father Divine, idol of millions of negroes.--Suyeo Sako SUB-OTAGE ? SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 6- The Japanese ‘’suicide sub- marine" of Pearl Harbor made local headlines again. The two man submarine captured after the attack on Pearl Harbor collided with a Greyhound bus as it was being towed on a truck to the civic center to be placed on exhibition. At a downtown corner it swung wide and the propeller blades knocked against the bus window. One woman re- ceived minor cuts, accord- ing to a recent A.P. story. YWCA PROGRAM TO GET UNDERWAY IN CENTER A temporary advisory committee met last week to plan a well-rounded center YWCA program, the first activity of which is to be a get-together rally. Members of the advisory committee are W. Ray John- son, Rev. Lester Suzuki, Rev. Masao Hirata, Keiji Matsuhiro; Mesdames V. Rams- land, Lotie More, Margaret Walthers, Akira Arai, Koto Hattori, Kiyo Doiuchi, Rio Kashiwagi, Thomas Saito, Rokuzo Ohi, George Y. Ta- keyama, Tomomitsu Yamasaki; and Misses Catherine Ludy, Hana Uno, Yuri Domoto, Dor- othy Takechi, and Alice Suzuki The purpose of the YWCA: “To build a fellowship of women and girls devoted to the task of realizing in our common life those ideals of personal and social liv- ing to which we are commit- ted by our faith as Chris- tians. “In this endeavor we seek to understand Jesus, to share His love for all people and to grow in the knowledge of love of God.” Further information on the YWCA and its activities are to be had at 10H-3A and at 12G-2B, according to members. SCOUT HEADS AID PLANS Louis E. Glinkman, chief executive, and Jack Brit- tain, field executive of the Rocky Mountain boy scout council, were present, at a meeting of the center scout leaders at 7E recreation hall Monday evening to an- swer questions and advise the leaders on future or- ganization. Mikio Fujimoto, former scout commissioner of the Merced assembly center, was appointed chairman for the nominating group of the district scout committee. FOUR-MILE HIKE A four-mile observation hike is planned by the boy scouts tomorrow at 9 a.m. BABY GIRL BORN Mrs. George Kimoto gave birth to a baby girl at the Merced hospital on Oct. 30, according to word received here this week.

MORE MILK MAYBE The possibility of ob- taining larger quantities of bottled pasteurized milk than are now being received daily was reported by Dr. G. A. Duffy, chief medical officer, this week. However, due to the un- certainly of the plan, a requisition for a larger supply of S.M.A., powdered milk and evaporated milk has been made to supply the babies under a year and a half. GRADING STARTED Preliminary work of grad- ing the blocks to drain the water away from the barracks and mess halls during the wet weather has been started and will be carried on as rapidly as more equipment becomes a- vailable, announced Louis Temple, senior construction foreman. Blocks requiring extra- heavy grading will be at- tended, to at a later date, he added.
