Note
Full title:Evan Oyakawa (left) with his chum, Alwyn Wong of Chinese descent, on the University of California at Los Angeles campus. Both youths are taking first year pre-medical studies. Evan and Alwyn room together, and are happy at the big, modern U.C.L.A. campus where they have many Caucasian friends. There is no distinction whatever between people of different racial descents as far as acceptance by classmates and professors is concerned. When the registrar's office was asked for a list of Japanese Americans, it turned out they had never made one. They did not feel it necessary to distinguish between students on this basis.<lb /> Photographer: Mace, Charles E.<lb /> Los Angeles, California.
