International News Photo
Bunjiro Saito, seven and half foot, 350 pound sumo wrestling giant, has turned to the soil to make his living because of the lack of suitable opponents in Japan Today. In sumo he is known by his professional name of Dewagatake. The giant florist is shown at Haneda airport presenting one of his creations to pretty, diminutive five foot Miss Vera Ohman of San Francisco, one of his customers who had invited the wrestler to inspect a passenger plane. Miss Ohman is a stewardess with the Pan American World Airways.
