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. (Asahi Shimbun)
