Sports were a popular activity. The Portland Sumo club practiced in the Japantown neighborhood, as did Portland Obukan judo, fencing, and dance classes. Other activities included basketball (boys and girls teams), golf and, of course, baseball. Photo: Portland Sumo Club 1931, courtesy of Jack Yoshihara.
