EXPOSITION OF JIU-JITSU

By J. J. Obrien, Former Japanese Police Inspector, in Union at 8.

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

Mr. O'Brien saw much of the actual use of jiu-jitsu, as inspector of police at Nagasaki, Japan, for more than eight years. His ideas, however, are not exclusively Japanese, but merely an adaptation from them, developed into a practical, efficient system. He has given many exhibitions of his methods, with the aid of his Japanese assistants, both in this country and elsewhere. Several years ago, he gave an exhibition in Cambridge.
