II Puka SqUareS The initial intent of this January issue was the natural inclination of focusing attention upon the 1961 Board, with a picture of the Board at its first meeting, a natural play. However, this "family portrait" approach does become stylized. So we have decided to cover the Board in the February issue,' backed up by pictures at the installation banquet of Jan. 28. However, a brief on President Tokuji Ono is presented on the back cover.
Since Prof. Murray Turnbull, interim director of the East-West Center is to deliver the principal address at the banquet, and since his address is to be about the Center, this appears to be an appropriate time to emphasize in the "Puka-Puka Parade" this most important national and state project.
Concerning the selection of a .Director for the Center, citizen Dwight D. Eisenhower will be out of a job by. the time this issue goes to press. Keeping in mind that the Center 1s in one aspect a people -to-people program, and in the lands we are talking about, a strong personality becomes a dominating factor, we can think of no better man to initially project the image of the East - West Center than Mr. Eisenhower. If not Director, then Ike could probably serve us as a roving Ambassador for the East-West Center. .
TOKU.JI ONO 1961 President, Club 100
Like most members of Club 100, Tokuji Ono is a family man who is busily concerned with bringing up his family - a family of 0'\e airl and

two boys: Diane who is 9, Jeffrey who is 6, and Peter who is going on 5.
Directly in charge of the home front is Mrs. Toshiko Ono. She is a Hilo girl, from the Matsui family. Married in August 1949, she and Tokuji have made good progress in bringing up their family of three.
Tokuji is a 1940 graduate of the University of Hawaii, and was called up in the last peace-time draft of November 1941, shortly after he completed his fifth year graduate work in education at the Manoa campus.
Uponhts return to civilian life after 4 years in the Army, he taught math and algebra at Farrington High for 5 years. The next 5 years he served as vice-'principal of the same school; two years later he served as teaching principal at Napoopoo at Kona; then one year as principal at Waimea High on Kauai; another year as principal at Kailua High; and as principal of Washington Intermediate, his present position, for the past 2 years.

.AK ... . CHRISTMAS PARTY RECAP: The Chapter Christmas party was held on Saturday, December 18 at the Clubhouse. Because of the expected great number to be in attendance, places were fixed up in Turner Hall to hold 400 plus I Instructions were given to the chefs to prepare food to take care of that number I
Following the instructions to the T, Robert Aoki and Minoru Tokunaga with the help of a few wives, did' prepare for that amount I Imagine their disappointment when there were only about 300 all told in attendance . But, somewhere and somehow, the expected huge surplus of STEW disappeared during the course of the evening, to the very delight of the Chefs. After all, the STEW must have been extra good! And it couId be very well at that, because according to the grapevine. several wives called the chi.ef chef, Robert Aoki, asking him for the recipe - needed immediately for expected dinner guests in their respective household! But, didn't you know that male chefs 00 NOT GO BY RECIPES!
One rather sour note to this business of cooking the Xmas dinner, those chefs who did the job were actually volunteer help - not even being on the committee itself. THANKS LOADS, ROBERT AND MIKE FOR THE REALLY TERRIFIC STEW! And thanks also to the rest of the commutee who packaged the candy and fruits. Oh yes, the kiddies really enjoyed their Christmas bags this year - there were real good toys in every bag. (I thought that the bags of things had been commercially bought - the packaging looked

Then, on Wednesday of the follOwing week, Jan. 3, to be exact, at another meeting of the new officers scheduled by Prexy Richard Yoneshige, again, all the new officers were present - with a sprinkling of old ones - to THRASH out at this time, committee assignments and revision of the grapevine system. (THE FRONT OFFICE WAS KINDA SLOW IN GETTING THESE MIMEOGRAPHED --- but patience fellas, they should be in your hands very, very shortly.)
Of course, the tradition of having a second meeting - the NIJIKAIremained intact - and will probably be so for the rest of the year, what with Prexy Dick Yoneshige showing the way - "conducting" one meeting at the Club Hibari on6 night, and on the other night, at the Hale Naneal
Friday the 13th of January. What a setting for the first meeting of Ba k e r Chapter. When Prexy Yoneshige finally banged on the table to officially open the first meeting, after receiving the gavel from Dick Oquro, substituting for Past Prexy Bob Sakoki down at the Honolulu Airport awaiting a VIP fr()m HUo, George Inouye, the attendance numbered more than 40 I
And the meeting was sp·~rited, because cheer-dispensing and elbowbending exercises began even before the meeting- was begunl However, all business was taken up and disposed of in short order. In fact by a little after 9 p.m., the usual aftermeeting parlor games became the order of the evening. Several new old faces were seen. Senator Sakae Takahashi was present, as was
Choriki "Shopping Basket" Shimabukuro.
Seen taking his job seriously, very seriously so, was treasurer Sonsei Nakamura - going'round and 'round collecting the "loot" off the members. Money really flowed like water for the majority of us havtng to pay for this 'n that.
So concerned was Prexy Yoneshige about the matter of clean-up that he, personally, but with some sHght help from Ken Iha, cleaned up the lounge before calltng H a night.
Even though the official part of the meeting was over by a little after 9 p.m., many members tarried untU early, bright and early, the next mornl It was really gratifying and satisfying to see so many attend the first meettngl And renewing friendships . That's one of the prime purposes of these monthly meetings and the building of this clubhouse.
Yes, we did have a NIJIKAIl And Oyabun Oshiro must have come just for that, because he came in at about 9:30 p.m., coming in a halfhour later than Stu Yoshioka I But better late than never, 'tis saidl And joining in on this "meeting" were Joe, Harry, Dick Hajime. and Jimmy. There were two NIJIKAI'S because the last group to vacate the clubhouse insisted on a bowl of saimin at the Oasis before calltng It quits for the evening, and that was 0200 hours. By milHary standards, 2 o'clock in the morningl YES, THE NEW YEAR HAS STARTED RIGHT WITH THE BAKERITES I

If the New Year is going to bring . about a new round of activities, we must have capal)le chairmen to lead our various committees. President Tom Matstmura called thEl first chapter meeting and promptly dispensed with the chapter assignments of the year. Now, we can be assured of the usual number of very popular family nites, plus a chppter picnic, . a stag par~y and a Xmas party - all placed in capable hands.
A surprise "visitor" was our long lost member, Masao AwakunL We were glad to see him. We were also glad to see him "volunteer'i to serve as co-chairman for our chapter fund-raising commUtee.
Lefty Kimura, captain of the chapter ball team, calls for all capable C Charlie members to turn 'out for the team since we are 10Si~g two of our "farm-out" players from Dog Chapter; Clarence Watanabe at first base and Sadashi Matsunami at short stop. Dogand HQ chapters will field a combined team and these two loyal members of Dog chapter are going back to the hole where they came from - just when we were about to raise their salaries and make them honorary Charlie members. We'll miss the long reach of Clarence at first base and the timely home runs by Sadashi. But I'm sure they'll be begging to return to our team when they see us take ' the championship this year - and like the fools we always are, we will be glad to welcome them back.
Our team jersey wUl have a change in color this year . Instead of the bright orange that marked our team
- '
-10
U wUl be something in blue. If anyone thinks we're changing colors to change our luck, you're mistaken. Our only purpose is to prove to Chicken Miyashiro's neighbors that he owns more than the one orange T-shirt he's been weitring these past ten years or so.

.DICtNII CM.IIT Amid Budwetser-ized cheers, Albert Yokoyama became head man of the Medics Chapter for 1961. by completely" sweeping the votes cast. The action took place at the year's last session, which was attended by the preSident-elect, Fred Nakayama, Jun Enomoto, Roy Hatakenaka, Henry Nakasone, Etsuo Katano, Genic'bi ·Masumotoya, Rufus Nomura, Shigeru Inouye, George Zakimi, Shinobu Tofuiruji arid Kent Nakamura. The latter two were elected vice-president and secretary-treasurer,respectively.
Chef Masumoto~ took over i,n the clubhouse kitchen, which all meant that the boys were fed to filling with Genny-burqers, baked macaroni and cheese, and tossed salad. An 00-
sub s tan ti ate d story has it that Mrs. M no longer is allowed to poke around in the kitchen of the Masumotoya domicile.
WUb respect to a bowling team, the Medics have been dormant for some years, but U enough members in hiding ~ be ~uaded to turn out, a formidable quintet will be fielded. Standing by for pin mocldnq are George ZalklmI, Shigeru luouye. "Curve ball" Enomoto. "Cba~er" ~faIDa aad Shinobu Tofukujl. Set prospects, to be hustled out of seclusion are Walter Inouye, '1IIKapiolanl Jim" G\lSbUmma and Omso 'Tamanaba. Dependinv on business pressure, ~vid Nakagawa mal be &vaUabJie. too.

.AST-WEST CENTER •• NT OF NATIONAL
AN INSTRU • POLICY
In our present day of uneasy peace throughout the world, the primary deterrent for aggresion-minded dictators is the military power of the United States. This aspect of our national policy was forcibly presented at the National Security Seminar r e<;ently concluded here in Honolulu by the Indus trial College of the Armed Forces for over 450 military and civilian members of our community.
However, military power as such is never absolute in itself and there is a growing awareness among officials of the government of the limitations of d~terrent power embodied in our modern weapons system and our great technological strides. The change represents a thinking that in addition to our offensive power, we must l1ave the means for survival in the first hours of a devastating nuclear attack. The growing emphasis is on this "time for survival", so on the opposite end of offensive deterrent power is the essential element of civil defense, which is baSically a preparedness to survive the impact of the. initial surprise blow so as to be able to immediately throw the counter punch.
The common element here is that both deterrent aspects represent a physical preparedness. What about the mind?
Prof. ·Murray Turnbull Interim direc tor of the East-West Center
The East-West Center appear s to be our best bet for the formulation of a national pol icy for the foundation of lasting peace. In recognis ing the many weaknesses of man, we many times fail to t:ake proper cognizance of the strength of manthat he is a thinking 'lnimal. And it is in the centers of teaching and communications like the East- West Center that the strength of man will b, recognized.
To illustrate the potentialities of the Center, on the next page is a picture of the first 'group of students enrolled in the Center.
L to R: Dong Jae Lee, Korea (teaching English as a second langua,ge); Abdul Qavi Zia, Pakistan (history); Camillus SUva, ~eY10n (soU science); Lynne Kaelber, USA (philosophy; SushU Pathak, India (history); Cesar Hidalgo, Philippines (same as Lee).
By Hl65, and each year thereafter, there will be 2,000 two-year scholarship students at the East-West Center. Of this number, 1,600 will be from Asia and 400 from the United States.
Prof. Murray Turnbull, interim director of the Center, will focus his principal address at the installation banquet of January 28 on the East-West Genter. In addition to informing us of the various aspects of the Center, it is hoped that Prof. Turnbu'll will provide the Club 100 with specific actions that the Club may be able to take in support of the Center. For here is a national project that shQuld ultimately become one of the major instruments of national policy. The Club 100 should support the East-West Center with all of its resources. As an organization which grew out of the horrors of war, the Club 100 recognizes the necessity for the maintenance of a strong mUitary posture for deterrent purposes. But at the same time, the club should support such institutions as the Center from which will radiate the challenges to man's consciousness - that he must find the means to live at peace with his fellow men.

Able Chapter's yearlytransitlon took place at the clubhouse on Thursday evening Jan.5, when the old administrators handed over the records, books, and the money (that's the main thing) to the new officers of 1961. Many hours were spent going over the past experiences, figures and incidents. Also, how to increase the membership and improve chapter activities and to carry out the projects which were approved during the past year.
One of the projects is th~ company officers' plaque. It will be placed in the clubhouse with all the names of the past presidents--also, w:l.th the rest of the offic ers if the list is available and correct,
Starting today, let your wife know this ' year, monthly meetings will be held every third Thursday night at the clubhouse, 7:30 p.m. sharp.
Alfred Arakaki came to terms with the club officers and .signed the contract for the '6). season as playing manager for Able in the Club 100 invitational baseball league starting Jan. 22 at the Ala MoanaPark, same place as last 'year.
According to our PreSident, Kazuo Kamemoto, the first activity and mem\lersh\p drive will be the stag party in February - same kind like last year but better - tea house. More details will be furnished when chairman Horace Awa gets his committee orgamzed. If you can get a pass for this affair, be sure to brlnq $3.00 instead of $2.00 far chapter dues. The extra dollar is far a separate flower fund for the.yearly memorial
service (flowers for each A Co. boy's grave>, and so forth.
Irving Masumoto bas been busy contacting members through phone and did a lot of leg work trying to get a large turnout from Able to attend the 1961lnstailation Banquet at Wo Fat on Jan. 28. Hope you said "yes" to our chapter representative.

Members of the Club 100 are now in the middle and upper income bracket. Those building new homes will be happy to know that Bernard Akamine is now a specialist with Interiors Hawaii.
Because home furnish~ ings are very rarely identified by name, many new home owners are misled when buying from strangers.
Re ali z i n g t his fact, Bernard has studied the industry and is familiar with manufacturing, shipping and the merchandising of home furnishings.
Please pay him a visit to 'chew the fat' at his new location on the makai side - mall level - of the Ala Moana Shopping Center. He will also show you the most important piece of furniture which you will need in your home.

GREEN THUMBS The first regular meeting for 1961 was held on Monday, January 9, attended by 20 members. The following will beat the helm for 1961: President Richard Yamamoto Vice Pres. Tomeki Nishioka Secretary Kunio Fujimoto Treasurer Kazuo Kamemoto
Member participation is a problem for any club. The pres ent roster lists over 70 members, many of whom are inactive or otherwise. To eliminate indecisions, unnecessary workloads and mailing costs, it was decided last year to revise the present by-laws. A committee headed by Bill Oya and Chicken Miyashiro presented the revised bylaws which were approved by the membership and published for dis tribution.
Section 2, Article II reads as follows: "Each member shall be assessed an initiation fee of five dollars ($5.00)and the annual dues as they may from time to time be de cided by the general membership." The annual dues for 1961 was set at $1, the same as last year. We hop", by doing this, that an active and inactive roster can be maintained. Any member, upon payment of the current annual dues, may then be considered active. The by-laws will be mailed.
We welcome Sakae Tanigawa, Baker Chapter, as the first new member for 1961. The Plant Club is very active and we would like to see members acquire skill and knowledge in the propagation and culture of plants.

ASHES FROM THE BIG ISLAND VAS YOU THERE, CHARLIE?
"In many ways I have been successful because of the reputation you lOOth Bn. fellows won fo; yourselves and, of course, let's not forget the 442nd boys, too. You are my Big Brothers, and the members of Congress, many of whom are veterans themselves, are keenly aware of that invisible bond of kinship that exists among veterans ..... and that makes my job easy".
Thus spoke Cnngressman Dan Inouye at a testimonial dinner recently at The Se.aside.
"I cut in on so many of your favorite TV programs during the last election that I better not make any speeches tonight for fear you might say 'there goes that Inouye again "', he continued.
"You can say that again", quipped Harold Marques, engineer with the local KGMB TV outlet here, who orqinarily has to confine such remarks to the privacy of the washroom while looking up the word "ethnic" in his pocket dictionary.
"Cherish your flag and if called upon, protect and defend it", the distinguished guest reminded President Charles Brenaman, as he presented the club with one of the original 50-star flags which flew over the Capitol on August 21 on the occasion of the first anniversary of Hawaiian statehood.
"You can rest assured we'll do just that", Charlie said.
"Will you be leading us? " Take Okajima inquired.
"I was willing and able to serve in World War I and II and I can do it again" , the old campaigner countered with a smile, tinged with honest-to-goodness pride.
"Don't forget San Juan HiU and the battle of Onomea", someone heckled from the sidelines.
"And the Battle of the Bulge", added Mrs. Brenaman, a joke which only she could relish.
The verbal fireworks came to an abrupt end as Reichie Chinen, a Civil Rights crusader, demanded to know why the Black Buffalo patch of the 92nd Division was conspicuously missing from the array of insignias spotted on the proxy's sports shirt. Everybody looked twice to see if Blue Kunishi was back again in circulation as Richie had come down with laryngitis from too much campaigning at the last election.
"Meeting ~djourned", was all Charlie could say and George Inouye, as always, was clearmg the way for Dan's exit. Someone asked Mrs. Dan Inouye: "You're George's sister-in-law, or what?"

HAWAII CHAPT ... Blame it on growing pains, this year's Club 100 Xmas Party had to be held outdoors at the beach to accomodate all the small fry whose appetite for prizes and the kaukaugot alarmingly out of Hne on budgeted estimates.
It doesn't take an accountant's practiced eye to see that Ric h a r d Miyashiro of Cafe 100 was losing his shirt caterIng to our needs in former years - a fact made evident when somebody else dishes out the chow. It's a long road back for Richard since the May 23 tsunami disaster and we trust his investment in human nature is paying off in healthy dividends since he resumed his business, renting out a place adjacent to the Tropics Lanai on Kilauea St.
In Heu of Xmas ornaments, Tom Kadota invited two decorative school marms from Pahoa School, one a bona-fide . blonde from Eat1 Claire, Wisconsin, which prompted Harry Oda to remark, "it's lucky for her, she was a minor when you commandos were opei"ating in her
)~ viCinity" . .
Chairman Masao Koga who believes hi operating in absentia and letting
others tak~ to the bottle and the aspirin had to take a tranquilizer pill himself when told by M.C.Yasllo Iwasaki that he had missed the new
y\ dish from Wisconsin. il
JIl' Kenneth Hamada welshed on his promise to play Santa by taking up a most undignlii.ed position, with sound effects, atop a stone entrance leadingintothe park. After the last of the presents were distributed by
27
pinch-hUtingGeorge Taketa, someone happened to mention the word "used car". Whereupon this fugitive from an amateur shibai suddenly came alive and with a straig;1t face; asked Takao Miyao, "What meaning this? Why you buggers never wake me up?"
As usual, Maestro Amos Nakamura left his bag of-magic tricks at home; Sally Yamamoto established exclusive rights to the mike in rendering a vocal solo; and Shigeru Ushijima's little boy screamed at Santa.
---000---
Doc Hill, latest of the honorary members to be admitted into Club 100 together with Mrs. Hill hosted members and their wives at their Keaukaha home soon after their return home from a trip to tre Orient.
The phenomena that characterizes Dp c 's personality reached out to bring in Dale Ebisu from Paauilo, Wallace Yamagata from Ninole, and. Takas hi Honda from Pahoa to the party which is an achievement which President Charles Brenaman himself says he cannot ma,tch.
ilo1any a forgotten face emerged out of their self-imposed bamboo curtains and it was good to see them revel in the bond of fellowship that existed when we were one and inseparable in the Army.
We need Doc's ptllar of strength to keep this tribe from going under. Someone said that a year ago. He was so right.
Walter Kadota
