    Terukuni, the 358 pound sumo Grand Champion, receiving the winner's trophy at a provisional sumo arena in Osaka as the autumn professional sumo contest closed Sunday. Although Terukuni was given the title of Grand Champion (Yokozuna) in 1942, this is the first time he became the winner of a seasonal game. He lost only two out of the 15 matches during the season.
