Full title:More than 40 Nisei girls have used the National Training School for Christian girls in Kansas City, Missouri for temporary housing. The school for church workers has accommodations for 100 students, but only 40 students are enrolled at the present time, among whom are three Nisei girls. They are Yuri Shimokoshi (front), formerly of Los Angeles and Heart Mountain; Miriko Nagahama (left), formerly of Hollywood, California, and the Heart Mountain Center. Fumi Kobayashi (right), of Los Angeles, California, and the Colorado River Center, is secretary to the president of the National Training School. Miss Shimokoshi's parents have resettled in Cleveland; Miss Nagahama hopes her parents will come to Kansas City; Miss Nagamori's family has returned to Los Angeles. As part of their four-year training, the girls visit small towns nearby to assist with church services. Following their examinations, the girls will be eligible for the rank of deacon.<lb /> Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru<lb /> Kansas City, Missouri.
