JAPANESE WAY: The United Way launches its new campaign with its annual sandcastle tournament in Seal Beach today, with a $23-million goal. One way it hopes to add bucks is through its new Japanese division, aimed at increasing the number of Japanese businesses participating. . . . “We hope that in a couple of years we’ll have so many Japanese businesses we won’t even need this division,” says spokesman Jeff Rocke.
