There ought to be an over/under on the police chief performance.  If you are below a certain size (say, Sadanoumi or Kirishima), the policeman's uniform is OK.  Above that (Oho, Kotozakura), and it's best to stay in a kimono (not a mawashi).

It probably also depends what size uniform the police have available. My guess is they're more likely to find one for someone like Midorifuji whereas Kotozakura is more likely to be out of luck. Unless they get the uniforms tailormade which I don't think is very likely.

That could become part of the sekitori promotion kit. Silk mawashi, traditional dress-up clothes, policeman's uniform

PR for a campaign against special fraud by fake policemen was done by Sendagawa (Tokushoryu), the responsible oyakata for the Obihiro jungyo basho, in the city in Hokkaido on the 12th - the jungyo there is on the 15th http://kyodoshi.com/article/23667

Not as police chief for the day (that would be a fraud), just as campaign member - oshidashi to the scammers

I expected he would show how to handle onrushing scammers with a well-timed tsukiotoshi.

Today Aonishiki was chief of Yukuhashi police station - far from the heya location in Kurume, but the oyakata has an acquaintance at Yukuhashi police.
