Default 1953 Tokyo Giants autographs

It's my turn to start cleaning out the bins, only to find some items I have no recollection on every getting or having. This ball is a mystery to me. Can anyone read Japanese? Looks like the stars of this team were Wally Yonamine and Noboru Aota; obviously Wally isn't there, but is Aota? Who are the SS players who signed English style?

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Ken

The ones on the sweet spot are Bunji Kashiwaeda and Jun Hirota. It is the Yomiuri Giants not the Tokyo Giants of the JCPL (Japanese Central League).
The full roster is here:

I do auction items like this, but not sure when my next auction will be. Since some key signatures are missing I think this ball might sell for about $200 as is.
