Have you seen some students in
baggy white oriental-looking outfits
lately? No, it’s just the Hub-Kai-Do
class.
Hub-Kai-Do is the Korean form of
Karate. Archie Little, a counselor at
the C.A.E.C., knows a great deal
about the art and has been teaching
an interested group of students every
day after school and on Saturdays.
Thanks to Mr. Ouchi, they have twel
ve karate GI’s or outfits to practice
in.
The students know they are not
learning it to go around and brag, or
to push anyone around. It is an art,
and the students have respect for it.
They are trying to find a bigger
place or area to practice in so there
will be more room for moving around
and exercising.
Student Frank Martin is taking over
the class while Mr. Little is away on
business.
