Description

"The year 1921 would . . . mark a true birth of the Japanese-American sport as a native game with something of visible local traditions. Hualien resident Chia-hsing Lin spotted and organized enthusiastic youngsters playing with only sticks and rocks, and inside a year he had shaped them into a proficient technical school squad."

Peter C. Bjarkman, Diamonds Around the Globe (Greenwood, 2005), page 366.
