Exhibition of Wrestling.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

An exhibition of the Japanese wrestling called jiu-jitsu, which, translated, means the gentle art, will be given in the Gymnasium this evening at 7.30 o'clock. Mr. J. J. O'Brien, who will give the exhibition, has been inspector of police for the past ten years in Nagasaki, Japan, where he became proficient in this form of wrestling. Jiu-jitsu is the science of catching an assailant by holds which make his efforts react upon himself. Mr. O'Brien will be assisted by a native Japanese, but after the exhibition is over has offered to show any of the holds to men who wish to try them. The exhibition will be open to members of the University and to physicans in Cambridge.
