KOKUGIKAN RISES AGAIN

    The construction of the new Kokugikan, the wrestling amphitheatre at Higashi, Ryogoku, is proceeding well and the ceremony of "muneage" was performed yesterday. The new structure will be finished before the opening of the usual wrestling season next January. Most of the iron material of the building that was blown down a few months ago had been used in the construction of the new hall.
