Full title:George Takaki, Nisei (left) and his father Yoshihiro, Issei, busy in their new Takaki Grocery at 3550 S. Normandie,
Los Angeles. George's mother Miyono is living with them at the nearby Methodist Hostel. They returned to Los Angeles March
30, from Manzanar, and on June 12, opened the grocery. It is well-stocked with a good line of canned goods, vegetables, meat,
and other foodstuffs. It also carries shoyu sauce and miso, manufactured in Denver, Colorado. Its customers are Caucasian
and Negro, plus a few Japanese-Americans who have already returned to the 35th and Normandie neighborhood. Before evacuation
in 1942, George, who is now 25, took business administration for two years at the University of Southern California. He is
single--but I meet some very nice girls at the hostel, he said with a smile.<lb/> Photographer: Mace, Charles E.<lb/> Los
Angeles, California.
