(1) Made interviews to statisticians who received university education just after the WWII and collected their stories on the development of mathematical statistics in Japan. (2) By a research of historical primary documents, educational contents taken by Japanese college professors who stayed K. Pearson Laboratory at University College (UK) during 1920-30s, teaching curriculum of their statistics classes after returning to Japan, and others are shown.
