DIR Satoru Larry Aikawa, ma
tive of stockton, an Army veteran
and instructor in the NC dental
school, may have to give up the l.
dea of buying a home in San Le-
andre because few neighbors
have made threats against him
and the owner who proposed to
sell 1t to him.
We could not write a stronger e.
ditoriaI of revulsion against the
instance of unreasoning racial dis
elimination than is expressed In
the doctors own words, his only
comment on the case:
I'm disappointed In my fellow
Americans. But don't want to
live where I am not wanted. Be-
ing bitter doesn't help. Yet they
call you up when it's time to serve
your country In the Armed Fore
es.

bors objected when ne went off to
