i turc students would doubtless feel
1 closer to the spirit and culture of
, Japan If their clansroom could be
I adorned with something Japanese.
"If you could obtain a flag, a
j map, pictures, posters perhaps
! some examples of calligraphy or
j drawing done by fude (brush) by
; Japanese students I should great
1 ly appreciate any effort you might
make on my behalf."
The Osaka newspaper heard
about the request from Manuyama,
who Is now assistant professor of
Knglish language and literature in
j Saga (Kyushu) university and
j teaches in Osaka and Kyoto.
The newspaper expressed Inter
est in the fact that American stu

•This is perhaps the first time thHt
| our flag has crossed the ocean to
j carry out the mission of friendship
between the two countries since .
was readmitted to the society Vi
nations after the conclusion of the *
Peace Treaty. It ia entirely fitting
that our Hi no Maru (Japanese
name for the rising sun flag)
should now lend itself to the fos
tering of understanding and thus
become a symbol of enlighten
ment.”
Since publication of the article,
Willis has received a Japanese
flag, a map. examples of calligra
phy and painting, a doll, and other
