Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease and flour two loaf pans. In a large mixing bowl combine the oil, sugars, eggs, banana, pumpkin, and yogurt. Beat until smooth. Sift the dry ingredients together. Stir the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until well blended. Pour batter into the prepared pans and bake for 45 minutes or until golden brown and a cake tester comes out clean.
