q WHEN.

the Savoys tripped Everett. 1913,
last Sunday in a Puget Sound Base
ball League game on the opposing
mines home grounds, they accom-
plished heretofore difficult task
with ridiculous ease.
Up to May 18 1852, Everett had
been a link" town for japanese A
merican mines.
Even in the early l900's, Japanese
American ball clubs had a tough
time. The Asahis, then topnotch
Nisei aggregation, rarely won in
that northern city. AT that time,
the Asahis, coached by the late
Frank Fukuda, had such outstand-
ing stars as Anky Arai. Kay Taxa
yoshi, George Ishihara, Tsurue Ma
kamura "Shima" (Shimamura) and
Okamoto.
They were darn sweet ball play
ers", old timers recall, but they
couldn't do much in Everett. In
fact said an Issei, "it wasn't I'M
usual for at least one Asahi player
to come home limping after a
bruising contest in Everett"
You see. Everett a sawmill town,
didn't hire any Japanese in its mills
Other sawmillS did The feeling
against the Japanese-for some
strange reason-was not friendly.
And so in a little baseball game,
too, it was more or less an unheal-
thy place for the japanese.
In reporting on the Savoy tri-
umph over Everett last Sunday. Ma
mayer Hiro Sasaki mentioned moth
ing about casualties. We suppose
it is safe to announce that the boys
came home not only victorious but
unframed.
