The ‘Āinahau ban- yan has inspired poets, generated controversy and influenced leg- islation. Hundreds of individuals have rallied to help preserve the ‘Āinahau banyan and its numerous descendants. It is fitting that Archibald Cleghorn (15 November 1835–1 Novem- ber 1910), brought the banyan to Hawai‘i, for the businessman con- tinued the legacy of the traders from whom the banyan derives it etymology. The word banyan comes from the Sanskrit “vaniyo” and originally applied to a particular tree of this species near which the traders had built a booth.

    BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY: Roland Dacoscos Roland Dacoscos was born January 24, 1921 in Waipahu. The son of Filipino immigrants, he spent his early childhood in Iwilei, Kaka'ako, and Kalihi. He attended Opportunity School, Pohukaina School, Lanakila School, Washington Intermediate School, and McKinley High School, where he quit after his sophomore year. During the sixth grade, he spent a year on Maui, where his father and three older brothers traveled to various plantation camps and taught music. He began his professional music career playing in nightclubs and taxi dance halls after he quit high school. When the war started, he volunteered for the Hawai'i Territorial Guard and was trained as a medical aide. Then in 1943, he joined the 298th Regiment and played in the band. In 1944, his unit was stationed in Guadalcanal. He was discharged from the army in 1945, and resumed his work as a musician playing in nightclubs and military bases. After marrying in 1947, he took courses through the GI Bill. He spent a short time as a piano tuner at Metronome Music Store, followed by a job as a electrician helper at Pearl Harbor. In 1956 he became a member of the Royal Hawaiian Band as a saxophone player. He retired in 1986. He continued to be active in retirement, and volunteered at Lanakila Multi-Purpose Senior Center.

  • Broken Trust
    Introduction to the Open Access Edition of Broken Trust Judge Samuel P. King and I wrote Broken Trust to help protect the legacy of Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop. We assigned all royal- ties to local charities, donated thousands of copies to libraries and high schools, and posted source documents to BrokenTrustBook.com. Below, the Kamehameha Schools trustees explain their decision to support the open access edition, which makes it readily available to the public. That they chose to do so would have delighted Judge King immensely, as it does me. Mahalo nui loa to them and to University of Hawai‘i Press for its cooperation and assistance. Randall W. Roth, September 2017 “This year, Kamehameha Schools celebrates 130 years of educating our students as we strive to achieve the thriving lāhui envisioned by our founder, Ke Ali‘i Bernice Pauahi Bishop. We decided to participate in bringing Broken Trust to an open access platform both to recognize and honor the dedication and courage of the people involved in our lāhui during that period of time and to acknowledge this significant period in our history. We also felt it was important to make this resource openly available to students, today and in the future, so that the lessons learned might continue to make us healthier as an organization and as a com- munity. Indeed, Kamehameha Schools is stronger today in governance and structure fully knowing that our organization is accountable to the people we serve.” —The Trustees of Kamehameha Schools, September 2017 “In Hawai‘i, we tend not to speak up, even when we know that some- thing is wrong.

    GUEST: CLYDE AIKAU 1 LSS 221 (LENGTH: 26:16) FIRST AIR DATE: 5/12/09 Next, meet a surfing legend. He’s a man who grew up in a Chinese cemetery, won big time surfing contests, sailed on the Polynesian voyaging canoe Hokulea, and saved lives as a Waimea Bay lifeguard. He’s a surfing legend. He’s Clyde Aikau, Eddie Aikau’s younger brother. Aloha mai kakou, I’m Leslie Wilcox. Welcome to the first edition of a special two part series of “Long Story Short.” Many know of Eddie Aikau, a waterman who was the first lifeguard at Waimea Bay, a big wave surfer who was lost at sea while attempting to save the crew of the Hokulea in 1978. But in the world of surfing, his brother Clyde Aikau is also renowned. He has won at Makaha, at the old Duke event on the North Shore, and the Eddie Aikau at Waimea. The Duke Kahanamoku Foundation named him a “Waikiki surfing legend.” In the Spring of 2009, Clyde is 59, and he’s not slowing down. He stopped long enough to talk with me about big waves, family and living at the graveyard in Pauoa. When we um, first had the opportunity to um, have a house in the—in the graveyard, um, the deal was that we have to clean … clean the graveyard and cut the grass, and maintain the entire um, graveyard. And um, in 1959, we had to cut the grass with sickles it’s kinda like a wooden handle so far, with a— with a—with a half-moon blade.

Kamchatka lies on the southern tip of Siberia, above Japan. If that’s not an interesting story then I don’t know what is. Similarly, Mike Doleman (aka Mike Dee) has just as a unique background. He is a third generation Australian merchant seafarer. So it’s surprising that they’re both incredibly talented snowboarders. 52 Simon Lyddiard & 54 Jamie Hawley Simon Lyddiard says that outside of skating, he’s a pretty boring guy. Sure, he likes to box, but that’s about it. Well that’s all well and good if you ignore the fact that’s he’s an amazing skateboarder.

The class consists of ten students from various backgrounds and connec- tions to the Pacific region. Late in the fall 2013 semester, Professor Lola contacted me about aiding her students with the research component of their projects. In spring 2013 I was one of Professor Lola’s students in the graduate level course PACS 603, Researching Oceania. She also knew that I not only have my MLISc from the University of Hawaiʻi, but also work as a part time reference librarian in the Hawaiian and Pacific collections. Professor Lola and I worked out what my role would be for the class, and on the advice of Stu Dawrs and Eleanor Kleiber, arrived at the designation of embedded librarian. As my current position in the library is solely for reference in the Hawaiian and Pacific collections, my work as an embedded librarian is volunteer service. Luckily, it has many benefits: first, and most importantly, I am able to assist and build relationships with students as they conduct research, I am strengthening my instruction skills, and I have expanded my own knowledge of different topics related to Pacific studies.
