The big hall of the Sokol Havlicek Tyrs, Lawndale Avenue and 26th Street, was filled except for a few seats last night when Professor F. Pisecky gave a lecture under the auspices of the Beseda V. J. Fric (Club V. J. Fric). The subject was "On Czech Prisoners in Russia". The lecturer was introduced by Mr. R. Vlodka, a club member.
