Talk to Climax
Two Day Drive
Among Freshmen
Explanation of the Navy's prepara
tory V-l program tonight by Lieut. M.
C. Rhodes of the Atlanta Recruiting
office will climax a two-day recruit
ing drive among incoming freshmen.
Lt. Rhodes will continue recruiting

Tonight's explanation will begin at

, Navy's newest enlistment plan.
The V-l program was started in
May for college students between 17
and 20 years old who are seeking en
trance into Naval Aviation V-5 or
Naval officer training V-7. Students
enlisted in the V-l plan are allowed
to continue their college education with
only slight alterations in their studies.
Passing six fundamental Navy re
quirements with signed approval by
parents admits any college freshman
or sophomore into the V-l program.
After two calendar years, the V-l stu
dent takes a competitive examination
to determine intelligence and knowl
edge of English, math and physics.
When the student passes this exam he
is given the opportunity to select an
officer's status in Naval Aviation or a
position as deck or engineering officer.
Carolina students have been signing
up for the V-l plan since its inception
May 1.

Yutaka Minakuchi, Carolina alum
nus of 1910 and member of the Alumni
Association, has been seized by FBI
agents as a paid Japanese spy.
The 63-year-old Vermont Congrega-
tionalist minister who was graduated
at this University with AB and MA
degrees is now under detention as
an enemy alien in Newport, Vt.
Accused of being "dangerous to the
peace and security of the United
States," Minakuchi x was turned over
to the custody of Immigration officials
after Federal Bureau of Investigation
agents discovered a short wave radio,
a camera and a supply of film ma
terials banned from alien possession
by President Roosevelt at the min
ister's Glover, Vt., home. Authorities
also took Minakuchi's correspondence
files, ledgers and diaries.
The Japanese-born lecturer and min
ister is being held for investigation
after first accusations, made late in
March, that Tie was in the pay of the
Japanese Consulate. Arthur Cor
nelius, Jr., FBI agent, declared that
he had taken the Jap into custody at
his home only after several weeks of
investigation. The preacher was given
an enemy-alien board hearing in
April.
Minakuchi was born in Okayama,
Japan, in 1879, although lodge rec
ords claim his birth date as 1877 and
Alumni Association files list the date
as December 12, 1884. He attended
Kyoto high school and enrolled two
years at Presbyterian College in
Tokyo. Alumni office records show
that Minakuchi then spent several
months in Vladivostok, Russian Pa
cific port, with his uncle.
The Jap arrived in the United
States in 1897, at the age of 18. He
took a theological course at the Uni
versity of Kentucky at Lexington and
then came to this University for his
AB and MA degrees. He later took
postgraduate work at Oberlin College
and Yale University.
Asheville, N. C. then saw Mina
kuchi as its Church of Christ pastor
for three and one-half years. The
Japanese preacher proceeded to Bal
timore, and spoke from coast to coast
as a missionary. He preached at Ches
terfield, 111., in 1913 and 1914, and was
active in Liberty Bond drives and Red
Cross work in Chicago during the
World War.
After the war Minakuchi was a
Chatauqua lecturer until he accepted
the pastorate of the Congregational
church at Peacham, Vt., in 1929, hold
ing it nine years. At one time the
minister reportedly returned to Tokyo
on an unknown mission. Since then
he has lived in Glover, acting as a

supply preacher for several churches.
Early in April the Associated Press
reported that Mrs. Nellie Cook Mina
kuchi, wife of the accused agent and
apparently divorced, regained her
American citizenship that she lost
upon her marriage to the minister.
Federal Judge George Sweeney of
Boston granted her petition for re
patriation. Mrs. Minakuchi, mother of
two girls and former resident of
Watertown, Mass., has been employed
as a teacher in Glover. Miss Cook
married Minakuchi in January, 1931.
Minakuchi is a member of this Uni
versity's Alumni Association, but the
Alumni office has not heard from the
minister "for quite some time."
Shortly before the outbreak of the
Japanese-American war, Minakuchi
lectured on the subject "Whither,
America?" at a Glover church.
The Swedish ship Gripsholm will
weigh anchor in New York City in a
few days to take Japanese djplomats
back to their homeland. But the Rev.
Mr. Minakuchi won't be on the Grips
holm. He will still be interned in
Newport because he does not have
"diplomatic privileges."
