EVACUEES' ANNIVERSARY

Last week was the first anniversary of the Island evacuation.

It was on April 1, exactly a year ago that the Islanders stepped off the bus on Manzanar, Calif., soil. In Manzanar, they were the first family group to arrive, the group before them being a special evacuation crew to prepare Manzanar for families which were to come. The Islanders were the first to be evacuated from the Pacific Coast.
