iv-. -v, f ' i Some of us took tours to Nagasaki while we were anchored in Sasebo.

Old fashioned wives dressed in brilliantly colored silk kimonos and robes, while their husbands were dressed in a neat pin-stripped suit. Or the reverse, girls in sweaters -and bobby socks and men in robes and wearing wooden clods, truly the most conglomerate dress apparel ever seen. Most of us started our tour of the city at the famous lmf perial Hotel. From there welvisited the Imperial Palace. Since no one was allowed into the five hundred year old castle unless on official call we had to' be satisfied with viewing its grounds from the remote double bridge entrance. The rest of the 1 c -C' IN sight-seeing time was spent seeing places like the Japanese Diet Building, the home of the Upper House and the Upper House of Representatives of Japan, Moji Shrine, Yasukuni Shrine, Tokyo University and m-any other places. With the coming of the evening -we looked for entertainment and Tokyo with its thriving night life did not disappoint us. Tokyo's night life section looks like a combination of Green- wich Village, 52nd Street and the Rue Pigalle. lf f-- 1 P50 bs T? ,? i 7-2 -ETA? 3-4- i,
