Great news that it will return life. <br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000">The neighborhood lost energy when they left, and this give me a perfect excuse to revisit my former digs.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:trebuchet ms,sans-serif;font-size:small;color:#000000"><br clear="all"></div><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><font size="4"><span style="font-family:georgia,serif"><i>/ Patricia Yarrow</i></span></font><br></div></div></div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, 27 Jan 2022 at 22:10, Barbara Ann <<a href="mailto:barbara.a.klein@gmail.com">barbara.a.klein@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="auto">From Moti:<br><div dir="ltr"><br></div><div dir="ltr"><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><b>From:</b> Moti Dichne <<a href="mailto:niramiai@gmail.com" target="_blank">niramiai@gmail.com</a>><br><b>Date:</b> January 27, 2022 at 6:47:29 AM EST<br><b>To:</b> Sumo Newsletter2 <<a href="mailto:sumo-newsletter2@googlegroups.com" target="_blank">sumo-newsletter2@googlegroups.com</a>><br><b>Subject:</b> <b>[Sumo news] - More heya news</b><br><b>Reply-To:</b> <a href="mailto:niramiai@gmail.com" target="_blank">niramiai@gmail.com</a><br><br></div></blockquote><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><p>Oguruma beya news- the heya will fold on February 7th, and Oshiogawa beya (run by ex-Takekaze) will be established on the same day.

They will remain at the current Oguruma premises till April 1st and then move to the new premises in Sumida ward.</p><p>Nakamura Oyakata (ex-Yoshikaze) who is leaving the Oguruma fold and joining ex- Kisnosato's Nishonoseki beya will be taking Makushita Tomokaze, Sakaekaze, Fujikawa, Tatsukaze, Takeoka. Sandanme Nishida, Miyagi (great promise) and Jonidan Abe. Yobidashi Rokurou as well. </p><p>Ex-Kyokutenhou (Tomozuna Oyakata) has switched kabu and is reviving Oushima beya, 10 years after it closed. Current Oushima Oyakata (Ex-Kaiki) will assume the Tomozuna name. The switch was recognized by the rijikai today. Ex-Ksiki will be 70 years old in June and will retire from the Kyokai, so that probably had something to do with this. It's actually a switch back the other way when in June 2017, Kyokutenhou who was Oushima back then took over Tomozuna-beya upon the retirement (mandatory 65, stayed on for the additional 5 years) of the then Tomozuna Oyakata, ex-Kaiki..</p>
