Request not to cancel another sumo meet

TOKYO, Japan - Head of the yokozuna deliberation council Takuhiko Tsuruta (C) and members of the council head to an extraordinary board meeting at Ryogoku Kokugikan sumo arena in Tokyo on March 10, 2011. The council said the same day that it had asked the Japan Sumo Association to hold the Summer Grand Sumo Tournament as scheduled in Tokyo in May as the spring tournament scheduled for March was scrapped in the wake of a bout-rigging scandal. The council considers candidates for promotion to sumo's top rank of yokozuna, or grand champion, before passing its recommendations to the JSA.
