Note In a World War II skirmish, President - elect John F. Kennedy's lorpedo boat was rammed and sunk by a Jap anese destroyer. Kennedy was 24 t the time and his adversary, Lt. Comdr. Kohei Hanami, wai 34. In this story, as Hanami told it to Gene Kramer of The Asso ciated, Press, the ex-skipper re calls the 1943 incident and gives his views of Kennedy today. By .KOHEI HANAMI TOKYO '(API It stuns me t think how close we came to de stroying the new president of the United States, John F. Kennedy, one black night in the Pacitie during World War II. I can remember that night very clearly. It was about 2 a.m. Aug. 1, 1943. My ship, the Amagiri, was re turning from a supply mission to our troops in Kolobangara, in ths Solomon Islands. It was a starless night. Rain threatened and visibility was poor. I stood on the bridge, straining to see as we moved northward up Blacked Strait. I had ordered battle alert, sines we were under constant harass ment by U.S. planes in the day time and by night raiders and torpedo beats at night. Suddenly we spotted an object churning up white waves about 1.000 meters to our starboard. I realized it was a torpedo boat and cried out. "Ten degrees turn, full speed ahead!" Such "crash strategy" was sup posed to be the best way to meet a torpedo boat attack. Our de stroyer moved headlong toward the smaller boat at 30 knots. We crashed right into it. I saw the enemy ship break in two with a tremendous roar. White gasoline tlames shot out. The torpedo boat disappeared in the dark. I knew that at least ona half and probably both halves sank. The commander of that tor pedo boat happened to be John F. Kennedy, but of course it was not until years later that I first heard his name. I thought probably no ons aboard the small boat survived. The thing for us was to get out cf the enemy's theater of air superi ority as quickly as we could. Al though the collision smashed tha Amagiri's bow, damaged its screw and caused some flooding, we were able to run for Rabaul at 24 knots. The next year I was relieved of command in March because of illness. After the war. I settled down on my family farm a Shiokawa. Lack of sleep from constant bom bardment and overwork had been too much. I came down with tuberculosis and was an invalid for four years. In 1952, still on the farm. I was flabbergasted to get a letter from Dr. Gunji Hosono. chairman of tha Japan Institute of Foreign Affairs in Tokyo. It said that the torpedo boat smashed by the Amaeiri had been skippered by Coneressman Kennedy, then visiting Japan, and he wanted to meet me. I was tremendously moved bv . Kennedy's friendliness to a for- mer adversary. I could not reach Tokyo in time to meet him, but I wrote him a letter, congratula ting him on his daring attack and miraculous survival and wishing him success in his campaign for senator. In his reply Kennedy agreed with my view that the United States and Japan should cooperate us friends. Teddy's Kin Cusses Plan WASHINGTON (API - Alica Roosevelt Longworth showed mighty little interest today in a suggestion that a unit of a pro posed cultural center here be adopted as a living memorial for her father, the late President Theodore Roosevelt. T. R.'s outspoken daughter told a Washington Post reporter: "The hell with the cultural center a memorial. I flee from thinkina about things like that. It has noth ing to do with a memorial to my father." Mrs. Longworth, 76, was asked to comment on a proposal to ded icate part of W ashington's planned $75-million cultural center as a memorial to her father. Neill Phillips, chairman of tha Committee of 100 on the Federal City, suggested it in a letter to members of the Theodore Roose velt Association, which is consid ering designs for the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial. Mrs. Longworth has said she thinks Theodore Roosevelt Island in tha Potomac Rim her thould be presented tt wildlife sanctuary with only a modest typs of me morial t her father.
