Lecture on Self-Defense Monday

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Mr. J. J. O'Brien, formerly instructor of President Roosevelt, will speak on "A Modern Method of Self-Defense; an Adaptation from Jis-Jitsu," in the Living Room of the Union, Monday evening at 8 o'clock. The lecture will be open to members of the Union only.

Mr. O'Brien first went to Japan as a sailor in the American Navy. During his stay in that country, he became a spector of police in Nagasaki, a position which he held for more than eight years. Since his return to America, he had developed the game of jiu-jitsu from a wrestling proposition into a science for practical use. Mr. O'Brien has given many exhibitions of his art in this country.
