Japanese Woman Writer
Spending Week in Valley
Interesting comparisons between newspapers and journalism
in Japan and in this country were made by Miss Yoshiko Seki,
Tokyo, who is attending the University of Oregon as a special
student, in an interview Monday. Miss Seki is a guest of Miss
Charity Williams, senior at the university, at the home of Miss
Williams' parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas V. Williams-, 1975 Houston
road.
Miss Seki, who is more inter
ested in interpretive reporting
than in day-by-day news cover
age, had considerable back
ground and experience in inter
preting news before coming to
this country. During the last
months of World War II Miss
Seki was assigned to work with
the brothert of .the Japanese
emperor as an analyst and inter
preter of news from America.
Miss Seki stated that by some
means the Japanese were able
to obtain copies of such publica
tions as Time and Life maga
zines and of leading newspapers.
These were thoroughly read and
analyzed by the young woman
and reports made on their con
tents to the emperor's brother.
After the close of the war and
during the occupation days Miss
Seki worked for National Broad
casting company and Warner
brothers as a scriptwriter, one
of her duties being to write ma
terial for television news broad
casts. Already a graduate of Wom
en's Christian college in Japan,
Miss Seki applied for a scholar
ship and is now spending her
second year at the university as
a special student in journalism.
Miss Seki admitted that she was
somewhat disappointed in the
courses, since she had ended up
taking classes in the mechanics
of news writing and editing
which she feels have been of lit
tle value. However, she has en
joyed her stay in this country
and has gained valuable knowl
edge in other fields.
One of Miss Seki's most inter
esting experiences in this coun
try was gained as a member of
the Japanese delegation to the
peace conference held in San
Francisco last summer. She
worked as a receptionist, sec
retary and interpreter.
Miss Seki has not yet decided
whether to return to Japan or to
seek a position in this country
at the close of her study at the
university. She explained, with
considerable earnestness, that
she believed she should seek a
position where her knowledge
of both Japan and this nation
could be put to advantage as a
"go between" or interpreter of
one nation to the other.
Comparing newspapers of the
United States with those of
Japan, the student said that
Japan has only very large
dailies, which cover extensive
territories, and -few local or
community newspapers, like

those -which flourish in this
country. There are three Tokyo
dailies she said, one of which
has a circulation of around
3,000,000. Because of several
factors, one of which is a severe
newsprint shortage, the Japan
ese dailies confine their pages
strictly to news which will be of
interest to a large per centage of
their readers, she said. Miss Seki
added that the Japanese dailies
are not "packaged, 'that is, they
do not have entertainment, fic
tion or other subsidiary sections,
such as the American dailies
have, with a variety of fields
covered by the one publication.
Since enrolled at the univer
sity Miss Seki has written spec
ial articles for the Portland
Journal, and for a Japanese
daily, the latter concerning her
impressions of the journalistic
training at the university and
her reaction to her courses here.
Miss Seki stated that she had
been treated with great courtesy
at the university and said she
was much pleased at finding the
students so friendly.
She will remain here with the
Williams family for the week
of spring vacation.
