Osaka gov. urged not to award prize at sumo tourney over sexism
OSAKA, Japan - Osaka Gov. Fusae Ota speaks at a news conference at the Osaka prefectural government in Osaka on March 12 about a panel's recommendation to halt awarding a prefecture-funded prize to the winner the Spring Grand Sumo Tournament to open in Osaka on March 14. The Osaka prefectural audit committee says the refusal by the Japan Sumo Association to let women enter the ''dohyo'' wrestling ring is ''unfavorable'' from the point of view of gender equality.
