Wrestling Society Directors Resign

  Six directors tendered resignation from the Tokyo Wrestling Association, 
on February 19, in connection with the existing troubles between the 
directors and wrestlers. Dewanoumi, senior director, is endeavouring to 
mediate, but Ikazuchi, one of the directors, formally reported his 
resignation to the Metropolitan Police Board on the following day, while the 
other directors appear to be following suit. The officials of the Police 
Board have stated that the troubles will shortly be settled, but the 
prevailing conditions are likely to continue in Tokyo wrestling circles for 
some time.
