Riverside QUALITY SELECTION Price Plu Savings 'Coupons Judo Class Scheduled To Start at YMCA on Tuesday Five young men came out of the roadside bushes on a lonely Tokyo road. Carefully they Cir cled an elderly man, then the leader lunged at the victim. The elderly man dropped to his knees and sent the leader flying into one of his conspira tors. Two other young men were thrown into a bush, but the third managed to get his arm around the old man's neck. The attack er was thrown to the ground. The leader rudhed the elderly victim again, but his hand was seized and he was pinned to the ground. This happened to be a prank some Japanese Naval cadets were trying on Master Morihei Uyeshiba, instructor in the mar tial arts which includes Judo. It demonstrates how a person will trained in this art of self-defense is equipped to meet any situation. Reason for Interest This is the reason that many people become interested in Judo in this country, and in Jackson County. Until approxi mately 1930, Judo and its close ly associated art of Jiu Jitsu were secrets passed on only to people of Japanese ancestry. Henry S e l s h 1 r o Okazaki founded the American Jiu Jitsu Institute of Hawaii and offered Judo open to everyone to show his appreciation to a Hawaiian businessman who kept him from failing in business. He founded the American system of Koden kan, the most widely taught sys tem of self-defense in Jiu Jitsu and Judo today. Jiu Jitsu is the "gentle tech nique and Judo it tne "gentle way." Jiu Jitsu concentrates on the "hand arts," means of im mobilizing an opponent by cer tain grips and pressures. Includes Throws Judo includes the hand arts, but it also includes throws. Ka rate, empty handed fighting by using certain blows and punches, also is part of the Judo instruction. The more advanced instruction covers defense against the knife, sword, club, gun and bayonet. Its basic ele ments are included in Army field manuals and in instruc tion in hand to hand fighting given police officers. The average person approach es Judo with curiosity. He or she may take its instruction for exercise or for self - defense. After a few weeks or a few months, depending on a stu dent's ability, the fierce need for self - defense gives way to a feeling of mental and physical fitness. This is the real goal of Judo. The instructors start the in doctrination with the first les son. Judo as practiced in the gymnasium is done with polite' ness and consideration, con sideration for the partner's safe ty and for the instructor. The instructor receives complete at tention. Every effort is made to avoid hurting the opponent and partner. Judo is like a loaded gun. It's never turned against anybody except in self - defense. Then the struggle is short, sharp and deadly. Requires Alert Mind Judo is an art. It requires an alert, disciplined body and mind. Each student summer saults and falls to the mat until muscles are hard and supple. Then he advances to the var ious throws. The fall is basic. Without learning how to fall a student could be seriously hurt when thrown. As each student advances from white belt, the beginner's rank, to green, brown and fi nally black belt he uses his skill to acquire more skill and teach es to help others acquire those skills. It s a constant process of learning and re-learning. No body ever masters all the skills completely. There are too many. "After I learned Judo I won dered why I wasn't killed be fore when I got into a fight. But few Judo men ever get into a fight," one student remarked. This is probably because a Judo man has learned complete con trol over mind and body. He practices this control constantly in learning the Judo arts. Academics In Area The Judo academies in Phoe nix and at the Medford YMCA are the only places where the American system of Judo is taught in Southern Oregon. Klamath Falls also has such an academy The first such academy con ducted by a white man in the United States started in Oak land and from there spread to other parts in the United States. Basis of the Judo creed Is to learn and to teach others. For this reason the Medford YMCA Judo academy is establishing a course of 10 lessons starting at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday. It will teach the basic Judo arts. lWfe1 (WiJWf WMPr ... A I. US 4,-1 H-";: .

Methodist Minister To Speak at Two Meetings in Ashland A Methodist minister who played a prominent part in or ganizing non-violent direct ac tion against racial discrima tion in the south will speak at two public meetings in Ashland Thursday, Oct. 31. The Rev. Glenn Smiley, field director of the Fellowship Re conciliation, will speak at a lree luncheon at Wesley House on the Southern Oregon College campus Thursday, sponsored by major Protestant youth groups at the college. The time and place of a public meeting spon sored by the Ashland Human Rights Council Thursday will be announced later, according to Vincent Oredson, Human Rights Council program chairman. Typical of the minister's cam paign was the bus boycott in Montgomery, Ala., which brought the Rev. Martin Luther King to national prominence. Mr. Smiley shared a seat with Mr. King on the first integrated bus in Montgomery after the boycott. Major Denominations Fellowship of Reconciliation, of which Mr. Smiley is a direct or for race relations, is a church - affiliated movement predominantly within Protes tant Christian groupings of all major denominations. It in cludes nearly 2,000 clargymcn, many educators and profession al workers. The group attempts to sub stitute non-violence and recon ciliation for violence in inter national relations, racial and in tcrgroup tension and other top sion spots. The organization has about 12,000 members in the United States and approximate ly 30,000 members throughout the world. F. O. R. membership quali fications are a belief in rever ance for personality and unity of the world-wide human fam ily, pledges of refusal to par ticipate in war or military prep aration, pledges to work for cor rective instead of punitive pun ishments, non-violent action and self - giving love," a spokesman explained. "The Southern Ore gon area has a number of mem bers," he added.
