Thanks for the info, Doreen.  Hakuho must desperately need this newer 
mawashi broken in rather badly to change now with his nemesis coming 
back, considering what luck he had wearing the other one.

I'm assuming rikishi, particularly the upper rankers, have several 
mawashi to choose from on any particular tournament day?
