Full title:Gordon Inouye on the business end of a hoe in the Della Maggiore bean patch near San Jose. Gordon may be young
but he knows a bean plant from a noxious wood and how to rid a patch of the pests. Gordon is the youngest son of Mr. and Mrs.
Hisajiro Inouye, recent arrivals from Gila. He doesn't remember much about San Jose and the Inouye farm on Gish Road, but
he likes this farm life just the same. The kids are all swell to us, Gordon said when asked about his Caucasian playmates.
With Gordon are his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Hisajiro Inouye, his brother, Wright, his sisters, Marcella and Betty, his aunt,
Elsie, and his grandparents, Kennosuke, 75, and Yome, 69. Gordon is especially proud of his big brother, Paul, 18, who was
inducted into the army recently. Paul, Gordon says, can do anything.<lb/> Photographer: Iwasaki, Hikaru<lb/> San Jose, California.
