His Relocation Center Days Resulted In A New Text Book
When Toshio Yatsushiro was moved from a California campus to a Japanese relocation center at Poston, Ariz., in 1942, he had no idea that in a few months he would help write a book, or that 12 years later he would use it as a sociology text at the University of Kansas.
Dr. Yatsushiro, newest member of the sociology teaching staff, was among 110,000 other persons of Japanese ancestry moved to relocation centers when war broke out with Japan.
He was studying sociology at Redlands University, San Francisco, before his placement in the relocation center. At the center he was assigned to work as a research analyst for Dr. Alexander Leighton, a psychiatrist - anthropologist, with whom he was associated later in many projects.
Study Led To Book
Their job was to give the U. S. Government data on the development of Poston center which housed approximately 20,000 people. The center became nearly self-governing. They had their own administration, police, fire department, hospital and school. The study of how this came about led to Dr. Leighton's book, "The Governing of Man."
After Dr. Yatsushiro left Poston he was assigned to the morale board in Wash, D.C., studying the morale of Japanese servicemen and homefront civilians. The results of this study also helped in determining which Japanese-occupied Pacific islands had to be retaken by force and which could be taken without force.
Studied Bomb Effects
The following year he went to Japan with the U.S. Strategic Bombing Survey to record and evaluate atomic bomb effects, both physical and mental, on Japanese civilians. This was the first study of the effects of an atom bomb on humanity.
Upon returning from Japan, Dr. Yatsushiro helped conduct a survey on the movements of 26,000 of the Japanese-Americans who were released from relocation camps. This survey led to another book, "People in Motion," which is used as a reference in colleges.
Dr. Yatsushiro received his Ph.D in anthropology from Cornell University in 1953 and studied under a Ford Foundation Fellowship for a year in India before coming to KU as an assistant professor.

2 KU Students Awarded $1,425
Two scholarships totaling $1,425 have been awarded to two outstanding students of the School of Engineering and Architecture, Dean T. DeWitt Carr announced today
Edward D. Grandle, Pittsburg senior, has been awarded a $750 scholarship by the Scooney-Mobil Oil Company, Inc., of New York City. He has been on the dean's honor roll for five semesters.
The Socony-Mobil Oil Company has awarded a scholarship in the department of civil engineering for several years.
A representative from New York City interviews applicants and reviews the accomplishments of the school during the previous year.
Lynn H. Kindred, Emporia freshman, has been awarded the George E. Nettles scholarship. It is for $675 annually for four years provided the student maintains a high grade point average.
The scholarship was established in 1953 after the death of George E. Nettles of Pittsburg, a 1921 graduate of the School of Engineering. He was president of the Alumni Association in 1948-49
Mr. and Mrs. Nettles started the fund as an anonymous scholarship for students selected on the basis of financial need, character, scholarship and future usefulness to society.

W. D. Johnson Jr., formerly with the United States Geological Survey in Billings, Mont., has been transferred to the State Geological Survey at the University.
Mr. Johnson is a graduate of the University of North Carolina. He has done geological research in Montana, Wyoming, and North Dakota. In Kansas he will investigate the geology of assigned areas, particularly attention to evaluation of the mineral fuels of those areas.

Hill Parking Improving
Students are doing much better this year than last in following traffic regulations, Joe Skillman, campus police chief, said today.
He said that the students needed to be reminded, however, that the parking lot across from the Student Union is for visitors only this year. One hour parking in the lot has been abolished this year and a visitor's permit is needed for parking in it.
The only free parking near the campus is by the old Rowland Book Store and along Louisiana St. No free parking is allowed in zone A, and zone I is now completely zoned down to the corner of Mc-
He's Determined To Be Bad
NASHVILLE, Teen. —(U.P.)— Jimmy Ray Douglas, 23, broke into the same supermarket three times in one night without getting caught and then called police to come and get him. "I want to be just as bad as my brother (an ex-conviction now jailed on arson charges)." he said. "I'm tired of being asked how can I be so good and my brother so bad."
