Gerald Evans scored several times and did not receive credit!

[IEKUKATAKA]

The referee looks like Akiyama, Hitoshi. Anyone know for sure?

[mallardgreen]

@IEKUKATAKA the film quality isn't very good, but I trained with Akiyama Sensei at MCAS Iwakuni for two years in the mid seventies, and it surely looks like him...I heard recently that Akiyama Sensei is in a hospice, and is not long for this earth. I will be saddened to hear of his passing.

@mallardgreen As I will also, I trained with him in the mid 60s, nice, friendly guy.

I know little about Yahara as a person, but his karate is terrific. I never understood pull back arm in shotokan until i seen him in action...
