There they will begin a busy three-day California tour with a lunch given by Mayor Tom Bradley. A special guest, at Hirohito's personal request, will be John Wayne, whose old World War II movies with their caricatures of Japanese soldiers as villainous fanatics, were once campy favorites in Japan. A visit to Disneyland will be beamed by TV satellite to Japan. In San Francisco, the Emperor...
