Approximately 20 wrestlers belonging to the Nippon Wrestling Association will participate in a wrestling tournament, which will be sponsored by a Korean organization for a benefit purpose on May 20, in Osaka. The Nippon Wrestling Association was reorganized recently with Ichiro Hata as president. The group includes former wrestling champions of various colleges and universities in Tokyo, receiving regular training at the Waseda University gym.
    Eiichi Kazama, one of Japan's top-notch wrestlers returned recently from the South, where he was reportedly killed in action as a naval officer. Kazama went to America in 1939 as captain of a Japanese wrestling team and competed against American college wrestlers in the West. Many other college wrestlers are returning from overseas, and the membership is gradually increasing, according to Masaichi Hayashi, manager of the Nippon Wrestling Association.
