A One-Point Trophy Team Contest was held on Dec. 13, 1952, Studio City, Calif. The Day Class JUDO Team won the tournament over the Night Class JUDO Team. Many observers predicted the Night Team to run away with the contest, but one can never under-estimate the supposed underdog. The outstanding Judo man of the Day Class Team was Russ Northrop. He is the Green Belt who skillfully executed a Straight Foot Throw scoring: a Full Point against a second Brown Belt man. He was the young fellow who pushed the Day Men over the top. Dan Kelley also helped the Day Team win by scoring a half point. The men of the disappointed Night Team who put up a gallant but fruitless fight, turned out to be Joe Aloi and John Machin. They scored a half point each. Russ Northrop and Dan Kelley walked away with the trophies. Dan Kelley of Lockheed Aircraft advanced to Green Belt .on Jan. 9, 1953, at the National Judo Association.

POINT BALANCE (Right Side) When a person is placed, or places his weight on one foot he is now on what is known as point balance.
In this position he has no strong balance, or strong line and is weak
in all directions.

Point Balance may be obtained from either
the person's left or right side.

"Sure Fire" Defense Against Boxer's Highly Trained Fists The reason it's so easy for a Judo Man to defend himself against a Boxer, is because the Boxer is trained to fight by strict boxing rules, such as, not hitting below the belt, etc. He is not trained to kick with his feet, and is limited only to the use of his hands. Obviously, he isn't as well equipped as the Judo Man. It's an undisputable fact that a person's leg is both longer, and stronger than his arm. The Judo Man's legs are highly trained and move with lightning speed. He is also trained to use other parts of the body as well as his legs.
JUDOVERSUSBOXING: The Boxer is standing in a right side boxing stance, and the Judo Man is facing him with a right side Judo fighting stance. The Judo Man maintains a strong balance by placing his feet in a "T" position. Both knees are bent, body leans left, which places him out of Boxer's striking range. He places his right arm even with the height of his face at a right angle. His left arm is placed in front of his solar plexus. The right side of his body faces the Boxer; because this stance offers less target, as well as less area for him to protect. (As illustrated in Photo No.1). When the Boxer starts to swing, (it doesn't matter which fist he uses), the Judo Man immediately leans sharply to his left, this places him out of range of the Boxer's fists, but within this range the Judo Man can still kick the Boxer. The Judo Man draws his leg up-snaps it out-striking the Boxer's left knee at a 45 degree angle. As the Judo Man kicks the Boxer's left knee, hI')simultaneously claps his hands together, at the same time he tightens his abdominal muscles. This increases the power of the kick.

are executed in one continuous

NOTE: The necessity of following up with the second Judo kick depends much on how malicious the Boxer intended his attack. However, one must take into consideration that when a highly trained Boxer's fist strikes at a Layman's face, the Layman is being attacked by a lethal weapon and therefore is in need of a "sure-fire-defense" which only the unequalled self-defense of Judo can offer him. 7

As you can see there was no room for hanging of socks or hose at the "Judo Magazine" holiday party. . . We settled for a full house instead. Gifts and tales (including dogs) were exchanged and the results were captured by our associate photographe,r. Edgar and Anita Tegner, second photo from top left, pose with their white Christmas collie, appropriately named "Frosty the Snowman." Edgar and Anita are proprietors of the Glendale House of Hollywood Cosmetic Studios. In the next photo two Judo students, Edward Rowe and McBlue, "talk it over." (Ed's the one with the tie). The .clown-prince of the evening was John Machin, third photo from top left, who spent half the night splitting sides and expressing his desire for a Judo promotion from Green Belt to Brown Belt. As a reward for his antics he was promoted to honorary "corn belt" expert. Mr. and Mrs. James Travis, bottom photo, admire McBlue who seems none the worse after the evening's festivities. Untrimming the Christmas tree, winding the clock and toasting "goodnight" concluded "Judo's" farewell to 1952 and welcome to '53 . . . A year that we hope will be full of happiness and prosperity for you all.

COlliES lEARN JUDO By Don Gallese
----
Probably one of the most unique developments in recent Judo history was the instruction given two collies by the National Judo Association in Hollywood, California. The collies, who make their home at NJA, have long been avid fans of the "Gentlemen's Art." For many months they stood poised and tense as they watched the Judo men in training. When they were finally given their chance to learn, the pedigree collies performed so well as to label them "The Judomen's Canine Friend." The Tegn~rs "Blue Bit O'Flash," photos above and left, rescues the fair lady (Carol Tegner) from her attacker (Roland Nelson of Northrop Aircraft) usin~ methods he learned during his training by Judo experts. The Blue Merle male collie seems to be in complete control of the situation as he keeps the villain pinned to the floor (left photo). Another Tegner thoroughbred (lower photos) displays a method of discouraging a club wielding desperado. Note how the dog keeps her eyes on the weapon and draws the attacker off balance before forcing him to the mat. The heroine is "Black Top Leaderette," tricolored female collie and the second of the two "Fur Belts."

AN ..OPEN LETTER TO THE EDITOR.. ". . . I am writing this letter, to tell what my opinion and thoughts were, concerning Judo upon my first visit to a Judo Studio. Also how I first got started into this new field of sports. I say new field, because to me, and to many others it is a new sport. I was amazed when I read in your December issue that JiuJitsu dates back thousands of years in China and Tibet. I had considered it as a secretive and mysterious art of "defense and attack," practiced almost exclusively by the oriental. I had seen it used in movie !'tcenes and read of its use in novels, etc., yet, I, as many others. really knew nothing of its principles. I might say before going any further that I have always loved Ameri.can sports, and played football, basketball, and hockey. I also did some amateur boxing. Yet when a friend of mine who is taking Judo lessons mentioned that he would like to have me go to the studio with him and sign up for lessons, I immediately felt quite hesitant to the idea. It was Judo, something that was strange to me, and I didn't feel confident that I would be capable of learning this art. I actually had an inner fear of the name of Judo from all I had heard of it. It sounded quite dangerous. I know from what I've seen of Judo in movies and the way they threw a person around, we~l-it looked pretty rugged. This friend of mine, who asked me to go with him, happens to be a man of about fifty years old. So, I reasoned, that if a man his age can do it, then I suppose that I should be able to make the grade, too. As we walked into the Judo Studio on Ventura Blvd., my fears were again reborn. Here, I saw some of the students tumbling and taking practice falls back and forth across the mat. They looked very adept, and it was something to watch. There was timing and smoothness in their movements. It looked quite difficult and I thought to myself, Man! I can't do any of that. I've never taken any tumbling and even had trouble doing a decent dive off of a diving board, Nope, I said, to myself, this isn't for me, as I watched them fly through the air, this is for the B-I-R-D-S.
found myself enjoying the workouts immensely. As I progressed my interest in Judo, as a sport, and as a science, increased. I learned that Judo did not require strenuous practice and training that you undergo for the "blood and thunder" type of sport, such as football, boxing, etc. Now, this was more scientific, and required your outthinking the opponent. It is timing. smoothness, coordination, and principles of balance and unbalance. It is truly the smoothest and most beautiful of all hand to hand combat. Judo has opened up a whole new world of interest for me. and I am absolutely delighted with it as a competitivE' sport. It would take many, many words to say all the things that I have found in favor of .Judo, and yet I have only scratched the surface, for, I am a newcomer to its ranks, "a white belt." I intend to stay with it for years and some day hope to climb the ladder to the Black Belt class. Although, I am new in the game, I have quickly realized its great values and strongly recommend it to my many friends, who are curious but hesitant. Upon .closing may I add that in my beginning of Judo, thus far, I have been highly impressed, by the honorable sportsmanship shown by the fellows I have met in Judo. It's fine calibre of teaching seems to develop character, and to make finer Americans of its students. My hat is off to the fine sport of Judo, and I sincerely hope that it will continue to advance, in our United States, as I believe it will. I am thankful that I have made the first step, upon my Judo schooling, and all I can say to those that have not, is "you don't know what you're missing." It's really great. DANNY KELLY, 124 E. San Jose Ave., Burbank, Calif.
I was then introduced to the Judo instructor, and after talking things over with him, I decided to sign up for one year's instruction. Now, I find, that it was a very wise decision, for I found myself a new and thrilling, highly beneficial sport. Also, I fpund, much to my surprise, that in their form of teaching Judo; and by starting from the first basic fundamentals that I was very soon doing the same tumbling, throwing and taking falls that looked so difficult to me the first day. I was mostly amazed however, to find, that by falling correctly, as taught by my instructor, that I was not ever hurt or harmed in any way. I

LEST WE FORGET-
JUDO INSTRUCTORS
That the Art of Judo has its bad moments-one such moment was on Sunday, Jan. 11, 1953 when a very poor display of Judo was incorporated in the finale of the Colgate Comedy Hour (T.V. Show, Channel 4). featuring Abbott and Costello. What a mess! Words fail us when a Judo Man such as J.J.D. wished in some way to show his appreciation for the tremendous work and untiring effort of the J. M. Staff. He volunteered to buy space to voice his sentiments. And was so modest that he even wished to withhold his name without desire of recognition or reciprocity. Judo Men such as J.J.D. are worth burning the midnight oil for. Surely the success of Judo Magazine will be attained as long as men of such caliber exist. A special thanks to 20th Century-Fox Publicist Roy Craft who gave his time and help so willingly. It was a pleasure to work with you Roy. The splendid cooperation of Harry Sanford, Frank Powolny and very lovely Merry Anders was most delightful.
