You'll be Sorry
Ever After If You
Miss Art Show
Japanese Exhibit
Called Greatest in
Museums History
By ELIZABETH EVANS

Any reader of the NORTHWEST
TIMES who doesn't visit the Seat
tie Art Museum sometime this
month is going to be sorry for ever
after, according to large group of
japanese Americans who are enthu-
siastic about the greatest exhibit of
art that the museum has ever shown
IN its 20 year history.
The museum is showing millions
o. dollars worth of Japanese art
objects-pieces that were sent by
the Japanese government and peo-
pie to America this year IS a good
will gesture. They we're selected
from the most sacred temples and
shrines, from private collections and
from the Emperor himself to repre-
sent the greatest art of all Japanese
history from more than 1,4OO years
ago to today. So valuable are the
pieces that no one touches them ex-
cept the six Japanese curators who
travel with the exhibit.
Along with the exhibit, the muse
UNI is showing several unusual ia
panese motion pictures in its thea
ter. Every interested person will be
welcome and it is hoped by the mu-
scum that every person of Japanese
extraction in Seattle will surely see
this fabulous collection of more than
100 gorgeous pieces
Because DR.. Richard E. Fuller,
president of the museum, believes
that every child should have the OPP
portunity to view this once-in-a-
lifetime exhibit, he has offered to
allow all children accompanied by
adults to enter the museum free.
Adult admission will be SO cents.
The museum is located in Volun-
teer Park and is easily accessible by
automobile or by the Capitol Hill or
Broadway trolley lines.

HawaiiStatehood
Continues Plea for
National JACI,
Approval Means
Loyalty Recognition,
Masaoka Asserts

WASHINGTON. D. c., July II
tJACL)-"Statehood would be fit
ting recognition for the loyalty and
allegiance of Hawaii to the United
States; compensation to her peo-
pie for the taxes they have paid, the
land they have built, and the lives
they have given to our common des-
tinies," the National japanese Ame-
rican Citizens League declared this
week in urging immediate state
hood for Hawaii before the Senate
Committee on Interior and Insular
Affairs.
Mike MasaOka, Washington JACL
representative, testified i'm support
of the Administrations backed mea-
sure. His appearance, following the
testimony of seven officials flown
here for the public hearings from
Hawaii, was arranged by Delegate
Joseph r. Harrington (R., Hawaii.
Decrying questions of the racial
composition of Hawaii's population,
Masaoka declared that, as a matter
of principle, this factor should be of
no consequence insofar as statehood
qualifications are concerned. THE
fact that certain Asian peoples con-
stitute the bulk of peoples in Hawaii
should neither be an argument for
nor against statehood. The funda-
mental question involved is not the
races of people who reside in Hs-
wall but the kind of thinking and
living they indulge in as members
of that Territory. On this basis.
there can be no question that Ha-
waits mixed population qualities as
American, as United States minded,
as an integral part of this nation
and government" Masaoka said.
He explained that the only reason
JACL made an appearance and
stressed the contributions of persons
of japanese ancestry to the develop
ment of Hawaii was so that the
members OF the Senate committee

The Pigskin Huddle
BY AMP

national hookup featured a home
game of Florida A and M in its
national roundup.
There is a good possibility that
even more may happen in 1858. A
talent agency is seeking the ma
tionwide television of top Negro
college football games.
General Artists Corporation is
seeking to have the National Col
Iegiate Athletic Association re-
lax its TV code to allow the tele-
casting through the American
BroadcaSting company of nine Ne
gro college tits.
The GAG argument is that the
transmission of these games on
TV will not affect the attendance
at general college football games
nor will it interfere with the
,NCAA's strictly supervised pro-
gram of college battles.
According to GAO, this fea-
ture will aid the athletic pro-
gram of colored colleges.
Harold Jackson, Negro an
nouncer and Bob Wolfe, an ABC
sportscaster would take care OF
commentary ON the games. Be
tween halves the show will fea-
ture interviews with presidents
Of participating colleges and plugs
for the United Negro College Fund.
To be featured in most of the
games will be Lincoln (Pa.),
Howard and Morgan, all mem
bers of the CIAA Central Inter-
collegiate Athletic Association) ,
largest Negro college loop.
The one drawback to featur-
ing those schools is that they are
members of the NCAA and come
under the organizations gridiron
TV code. For the GAO program
to 60 through the NCAA will have
to make exceptions for these
three schools.
