This study is the second research undertaken to clarify the nature of Budo education at Kenkoku university. The details of five Budo clubs there were surveyed: the foundation of each club, its members and leaders, the club tradition (atmosphere of the clubs), the results of competitions and the like. A common impression was drawn from these clubs. In addition, suggestions about what modern Budo should be are offerd. This study was done by reviewing reference books, especially THE CHRONOLOGICAL TABLE OF KENKOKU UNIVERSITY and KANKIREI HARUKA (a miscellany from various students.,) by listening to students, and especially by gathering information from their letters to the present author. Briefly, the results are as follows: 1. JUDO CLUB. This started when Y. Nakagaki, one of the first time of the students, appealed to classmates to practise judo, about the opening of the university, in May 1938. Soon, many dan grade students gathered in the dojo. Then, gradually, it became a strong and famous judo club in Manchuria. 2. KENDO CLUB. It started at almost the same time as the judo club under the leadership of many dan grade teachers and staff members. J.Asako, a full-time kendo teacher, who was very keen to practise kendo and showed an excellent attitude to the students. 3. AIKIBUDO CLUB. Aikibudo is one of the old names of aikido. This club was started by K. Tomiki, a full-time teacher, at almost the same time as the abovementioned clubs. Taiwanese, whose leader was Suisei Ri, liked aikibudo because it was the first experience and Tomiki was an impressive person. After world war II, Tomiki tried to modernize aikido, and created a competition system of aikido called AIKIDO KYOGI. However, at that time, he was trying to make an educational system of aikibudo while teaching techniques of aikido by the kata training system. 4. KYUDO CLUB. It seemed to be formed about 1939. T. Tubaki, a second year stndent of the university, said that he practised kyudo with Russian classmates in those days. The leader was M. Kagawa, who was a staff member who was promoted to a full-time kyudo teacher. Students practised shooting arrows into bound straw about twice a week, but were very energetic about it. 5. SUMO CLUB. It started about the end of June in 1939 because S. Wakuta (previously a professional sumo wrestler, Tenryu) was a part-time teacher there. The student leaders were S. Hoshino, Koukou An (Korean) and Keisho I (Chinese). Members of the Judo club often assisted this club in competitions and played a conspicuous part in them. Therefore some of the judo members were thinking that they were members of the Sumo club. 6. THE TRADITION IN COMMON AMONG THESE FIVE CLUBS. Each clubs was basically openhearted, so students generally felt free to join other clubs, in comparison with the present students. Students were usually very tired because their four training subjects and lives in the educational dormitory were very hard. In addition, they were always worried about the contradicition between the spirit within the establishment of the university: Harmony Among People, called "Minzoku Kyowa", and the reality of hard life in Manchuria which they often found when they went out of the university. Owing to those reasons, they could not concentrate their efforts on extracurricular activities, and such an atmosphere was taken as a matter of course by teachers. That was why liberalism was born in those clubs, and became the common tradition. 7. SUGGESTIONS ABOUT WHAT MORDERN BUDO SHOULD BE. Budo are wonderful Japanese sports which have excellent educational functions. However, if we try too hard to push them onto the people who have a different sense of values, or those in developing countries, especially Asian, it may look like forcing them to undertake the form of Japanese culture called Budo. This could be misconstrued as an act of cultural invasion. Therefore, we must take care when we try to develop Budo in foreign countries.
