THE NEWSPAPER OF THE AMERICAN SCHOOL IN JAPAN
(1960 - 1961 version)


Land Marks 1955-56

Front gate on a rainy day in Tokyo. This certainly brings back memories. You can tell that this was a foreign school because we were the only ones who had foreign (non-Japanese) cars.
Many of us rode the bus. Remember how there was always a lady conductor who stood in the stairwell and would say "hidari all right" (which she pronounced hidali all light) when the bus made a left turn? 
Don't know where this streetcar was. As I recall, there wasn't a streetcar anywhere near the school.
I think I remember riding this train (the Meguro Line) from Shibuya to Meguro.
