    Impressed by the colorful atmosphere and traditional ceremonies of Japanese sumo, a woman free lance writer for Brazilian newspapers has embarked on a project of introducing the sport to South American countries through writing.
    Mrs. Helen Allison Tunkis who was influential in sponsoring a benefit judo exhibition in Rio de Janeiro for raising scholarship funds, said after seeing the New Year's Grand Sumo Tournament at the Kuramae Kokugikan in Tokyo. 'I am sure that sumo will go over big in Brazil. I hope to write an article on this traditional sport from a woman's point of view."
    The former President of the Women's Club of Rio de Janeiro expressed hope that this will arouse interest which will eventually lead to holding a sumo tournament in Brazil.
    Mrs. Tunkis, who is also the only American on the Brazilian Board of Directors of the Federation for Assistance to the Victims of Leprosy whose President is Dona Eunice Weaver, well known for her relief works for lepers, has already written several articles on Japan for Brazilian newspapers since her arrival in Japan for the second time on October 23, last year. She was one of the first American women to come to Japan under the occupation as chief secretary for the Allied Council for Japan.
    Now in Japan with her husband, Paul J. Tunkis, who runs an engineering firm in Rio de Janeiro, Mrs. Tunkis has donated all earnings through her writings to the women's club in Rio de Janeiro to be used for a worthy cause.
