Kawakita Will Appeal
Guilty Verdict in Case
OF Abusing Prisoners
Sy the Associated Press

LOS ANGELES, Sept. 3-A YER
dict branding Tomoya Kawakita a
traitor was returned by a Federal
Court jury. but it cant stand"
his defense counsel said as he pre-
pared today to appeal the case.
The jury of nine Women-includ-
ing one Nisei girl-and three men
returned the verdict late yesterday
holding Kawakita, 27, guilty of eight
overt acts of abusing American cap
tives while he served as wartime
interpreter in Japan's Oeyama pris-
on camp. Kawakita was charged
with 13 acts.
The exhausted jury announced it's
decision after eight days of de-
liberation following II weeks of
testimony.
Death Penalty Not Asked.
If upheld, the verdict could carry
a death sentence, but United States
Attorney James D. Carter made no
demand for it. The penalty could
range as low as five years imprison-
ment. The trial was reported to be
the first on treason charges held
west Of the Mississippi.
Mr.. Carter contended KaWakita's
acts were of aid and comfort to the
United States enemies.
Defense Attorney Morris Lavine
announcing he would appeal at once
to the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals,
told neWsmen after the trial that
there was no evidence of disloyalty
to the United States, or that the
Japanese government received aid
and comfort from a little inter-
prefers acts
The deliberations were marked by
continued wrangling among the
jurors, which reached such an ex-
ploSive point that the foreman was
replaced by another taleSman.
80 Witnesses Called.
Federal Judge William C. Mathes,
desiring verdict after the long, ex-,
pensive trial, sent the jury back to
deliberate further.
The Government called more than
30 witnesses, most of them former
inmates of Camp Oeyama, on Cen
trail Honshu. Kawakita was charged
with striking prisoners. compelling
them to work when sick and on one
occasion with participating in duck
ing an American in the camp cess
pool.
All these charges the little CAL
sXico. Calf. born NiSei denied, as
serting that camp discipline was un-
der the japanese military and that
his duties were merely those of an
interpreter.

TT HE ba1lyhoo boys have
l. done their job well. When
the two old men Of the ring, Joe
Louis and Jersey Joe Walcott,
climb between the ropes in Yam
kee Stadium, Wednesday night,
June %, a million dollar gate
will be looking on.
This heavyweight champion
ship fight has been given a big
play in the sport publications.
If you are devout and avid
reader of any of these publica-
tons and haven't been able to
scratch up the NICOLA necessary
to put you ringside come the
23rd of June, you are probably
crying in your beer and only one
step away from being escorted
to quiet resting place by the
little man IN the white coat.
Brotherl Take a little Vaughn
advice. The morning of June
Gath you will be a happy man if
you missed the fight of the
century"

DON'T forget the last heavy
weight million dollar gate, the
second Louis-Conn fight, where
Conn ran all around the ring
until he got tired and sat down
to the accompaniment of the
booS and jeers of the suckers
who had spent their hard earned
money to watch this debacle.
The fight coming up has all
the elements of being a worse
flop, if such a thing is possible,
than the Louis Conn farce.
After the first Louis WaIcott-
fight the sport experts got so
involved in the arguing OF
whether or not Walcott was
robbed, most of them forgot to
mention that the whole fight was
a stinker.
Except for the two knock
downs and Louis furry in the
ninth round, the fans were treat

as they watched Walcott racing
backwards on his bicycle with a

We can't find any reason to
believe the coming fight will be
any better.
LOUIS has been a great cham
pion In and out of the ring for
eleven years. But age and easy
hving have taken their toll.
He now finds it hard to shed
his excess weight and keep in
tip-top condition. His legs don't
carry him around as fast as they
once did and although he still
has paralyzing punch, he can
no longer deliver it with the
swiftness and dizziness that used
to be his trademark.
The fighting machine that
ripped the title from the game
Jimmy Braddock with a devas-
tating right hand and annihilated
Hitler's superman, Max Schmel-
ling, with two-fisted attack
is no more. In its place is a
once-great fighter with plenty of
heart who is slowly coming to
the end OF a we'll travelled road.
WALCOTT is a second-rate
trial horse who would have
never dared enter the ring with
the Louis of six years ago. He
has a fair left hook and a good
long overland right, which,
coupled with the determination
which results from long years of
starvation and poverty, could
make him the next heavyweight
champion OF the world.
We hope that Louis has enough
left so that he can retire I'M
defeated, for he has been a great
champion.
But as long as young fighter
by the name of Exxard Charles
is around. the winner of this
fight must call himself cham
pion. knowing il will be so only
as long as he can stay out of
the way of Brother Charles.
AS it stands now the guy who
doesn't get to New York on the
z3rd will probably proudly say,
II wasn't there. Charlie"

director of branches of the Ma

minded NAACP members this
week that there is still time for

Registration books have not clos

the states of Arizona, Colorado,
Idaho, Louisiana, Massachusetts,
