There is today a very great need~ Tor the establishment omeore iﬁaﬂh4fii"

f not fulfilled m while on a national "scale 11; is depicted by a wiltiplicitydf‘faz-
tors; not the leaSt of whiCh is the desperate need to resolve the complex problems
of ignorance, poverty, disease and crime,‘ ,

The need to communicate iS'basic to man‘s"nature; ”The'socialiZation‘ presses;
the imnarting of group values,’ beliefs; prinéiolésg etc.; in "the home: 'churéhg
school and government to regulate neooge in their aetions,“is' tied ingirrevocably,
with communication, and without the ‘1atter5'30ciai‘grouping“cr“men would be impos~
sible and they Would revert to an animalistic, non~rational plane°

Communication takes several'forms but; regardiess“or'“thé"naturé of theSe, ‘it

listener. Too, it has several purposes, such as the transfer of information from
one person to another, or entertainment, Always it represents an effert to get
someone to do something (or refrain from doing something), whether this 13 to perm
form an oVert act such as government inducing a citizen to war against those- of ann
other countryz or one telling a joke to another to influence him to laugh,

. The major trouble with communication today is not form as such, but, rather9
the distorting of form by interest groups to achieve goals detrimental to all but
themselves. As an example of this, one might cenSider the alternatidn in fonn
of communication between a government and its people when the former becomes en~
shrouded with an ideological cloak such as fascismo

But on a more personal, close at hand basis, the writer wishes to consider the
need of communication from a penological standpoint. 'Speciffically, he feels that
as a result of many, many social factors, there has never been an adequate communi-
cation link between the second class Citizens inhabiting the prison seeiety and the
first class citiZens making up the free-world society. He believes, as do a very
great number of conviCts, that owing to she'ssﬁeaes hcrsbness formerly associa+ed
with penal holicies,'and“as a reSult of the astersemnublicity“givénftb”the"negamive
asnects of triesn life (riots,etc ) coupled with the production by radio and telew-
vision comniled fo un~realist1c, over—dramatized “convict-prison" programs thatthe
public has been, to a considerable extent miSinformed in the interest of monetary
profit, and thus has stereoatyne, equalizing image of all convicts,

A recent poll of convicts at a large midwestern prison, relative to their b1-
lief that the public has a false image of them, show the following results;eighty
percent of the men felt that a grossly falSe (admittedly not entirely false) image
did exist and that it is highly resnonsible for the cbvious eneffectvineSS of all
past and oresent day penal policies as these relate to rehabilitation. 'Further.the
consensus was that this stereo~type image portrays all convicts as being hardened,
insensitive, hatemfilled, revenge~seeking, animalistic brutes devoid of any great
capacity for consideratiOn of others entirélv monev mn+1va+ed. and whose time to
prison is utilized, in full, in learning new criminal.techniques and plotting future
criminal "ﬁebs"5

Convicts, being human, are no more devoid of individuality or capable o 'beino
justly stereo-typed than members of any other grOup. The breaking of a law,“ +“s
ostracizing sentencing process, and the assumptiOn of a prisoner status do not, and
cannot, represent a decharacterization, depotentialization act of equaliEEtlon, 3E3
ail men everywhere, there are in the prison society, a number of weak, wilful,igno=
rant, insensitive, ineffectual and self~centered individuals, Similarly, there are
in any prison, men who are sensitive, intelligent 31d humanitarian.

The effect upon the social organism “s a result of the public having such
an image of some of its“again to be citizens", is one of extreme harm. It is harne
ful from the view that convicts are de-humanized in the image holder's mind, This
dehumanization is like a corrosive acid slowly dissolving the emotional and rations
a1 bonds binding men together. And it is not restricted in its actions to affectng
the dissolution of the bonds existing between freeamen and convicts.. It goes much
farther than this in that it tends to brutalihe'its freenworld‘proponents. It is as
though a freemworld'man Said to himself: "Jehnny P.‘ has repeatedly 'broken the law
to end up in prison, The disregard "that he haS'shown for others seemingly all his
life, indicates 'all'too Clearly that his ‘personality is not ruled by" forces like
these Which rule me. 'The"faCt” that he is so self-centered“and‘30 appreciatiVe of

upon others, saying, really. that the difference "in some men which permits them to

necessity of relying upon the written word imposes certain limitations upon such an

DEAR SIR:

In the latter part of 1966 I came across
an article dealing with your involvement
in the flood of 1937. The subject mat--
ter was of great interest to he as I am
in the process of compiling data for
possible publication on such disasters.

In your mast you give permission to re-

print, but for my' purpose I feel that
written consent would be in order. Also,

I would appreciate any additional ma-

terial on that particular aoticle or any

other similar in nature.

Thanking ‘you in advance for your co~
operation, I am,

Cordially yours,
P. L, Banks

EDITOR'S Nurse

If you of the Penal Press can help Mr.

Po L. Banks along this line please do.
After receiving Mr. Bank's letter, I did
a little nosing around and come upon an
account of another prison disaster. we
plan to print it in our June issue.

DnAR MR. DAVIDSuN:
First of all, let
for your material.

me convey my thanks

Since writing you, I have begun the tem
dious took of trying to contact each ins
stitution that might have a publicationo
I'm sure you can appreciate that this
project will not be accomplished overm
night-in fact,we anticipate a minimum of
a year's undertaking. So," if you corm
respond with other editors, please pass

the word along. We need all the help
that we can get;

The Pisani Press orientation is in the
field of humor. It is our opinion that
numourous writings, anecdotes, cartoons
etc...are not, by any means, the luxury
of people on the "outside" - on the con»-
trary, humor should have little boundau
ry, and we plan to present this as our
thesis.

An area where I would appreciate your
assistance is in the development of a
glossary of terminology that is unique to
your institution BUT divorced from the
typical movie/tv stereotype. It is our
plan to include Such a listing and have
requested all editors for help.

Again, my sincere appreciation for your
interest.

Cordially,

William G. Shilling

Public Affairs Director

Pisani Press

San Francisco, California
P.S. I enjoyed your cartoons and artm

work very much.

DEAR MR. SHlLLlNG:

we appreciate your concern, and wish you
and your staff complete success. Let us
know if we can be of further help.

TU ALL anAL PRESS leTURS:

Let's give Mr. W. G.’ Shilling our co»
operation. weive sent him our list. How
about you?

LILLIAN
BY MOSE PARKER

Mocked, betrayed, and set adrift upon the tempestuus sea of lost infatuation,
Overshadowed by the ebony cloak of anguish,_melancholy, and frustration,

As the crow wings blindly sought I vainly my destination.

How vividly I recall that early anew aftsraoon .1onz as?»
Whilst shackled fast to wounded vanity?_I_through the_mist beheld a glow.
To my amazement 'twas a star—studded gleam from the depths of an angel's eyes,

lighting the way to shoreo

Constantly observing3 yet seeing not, so blind, so very, very blind,
Why could I not have at dawn discovered the rose which at eventide dominates
my mind?

The answer escapes me, but you, I see, I see for the first time»

Our smiles intermingled, and witnessed th?,9v9¥Fti°F of a virgin love affair.
we danced upon the rainbow to the melodious strands of "Infrengfr which was
destined to become our heir» »
Caught up in a drenching shower of endearments, I softly kissed your

But as the sands filtered through the hour glass my heart surrendered to
your lovefs eaptivation,

As onea we laughed and loved virginly in the recesses of Paradise for a

brief, yet enchanting durationo

Satanic Spirits dnguised in the apparel of friends, jealously and
maliciously entervened,
Drenching the flaming embers of love with water drawn from infidelity's
stream.
The wedge flitted into the crevise of shattered confidence, and under the
_hammer

All but destroyed a wonderful dream.

But our love was a virgin love adorned in the radiant robe of chastity,

And there underneath the black cloaked clouds which compassed our Utopian
lea,

we became captives of rapture caressing the joys of reconciliation inr

breathless serenityc

Angelic symphonies resounded within, as we promenaded heart in heart and
hand in hand.

Vivid transfigurations portrayed to all that you were my woman, and I your
lover-man.

Who would have perceived that this our love was destined to become a memory

and be buried under sifting sand.

I have slept with regret and wined with the daughters of ecstacy,
Know too, that the perpetual flow of water beneath the bridge has amply
filled a sea.

Yet, you Lillian, in my heart live still, and shall continue for an eternity.

rather interesting'ekperiénoe in the inner chambers of that mysterious place known
as the hOSpital laboratory.

Ernie M;'Matzko'is'the'AssiStant Clinical Lahoratory"Technician and Works under the
diredtion of Mickey Smith, our biochemist who heads the Clinical Laboratory in the
prison haspitala..

I was jﬁSt”a'Iitt1é nervbus as to what whﬁld happeh"tb'me; yet, at'the same time I
was a little curious to"see science at h6rk.”"3ﬁrprisihglyg the laboratory is very
Small and" sompactg‘ Table‘ space” is“at a"minihhm'and"the surrounding shelves are
packed with all'sizes and shapes of tubes and various colored liQuids and Sparkling
crystalso ”I Was amazes when Ernie emplaihed;"patiently, the many uSes that these
chemicals hate in helping to point"out the illneSSesmcf"man. I learned that some of
the glass tubes were very expensive and made of the finest glass, free from flaw
and perfect in shape.

The first thing that I did woe to wean my hands, Ernie took from
3 Shelf a sterile packaged impliment, known as a lancet. This is
a small metal device with a sharp point on it for piercing the
finger. After appling alcohol he painlessly pierced the tip of
my middle finger. He took an eighteen inch rubber tube which was h ' 5%
connected to a wnite cell.diluting pipette (looks something like
a thermometer without the red stuff inside) and put the rubber
and in his mouth and the pipette at the base of hte blood drop on
my finger and drew 5/10 of a c.m.m.- of; blood into the pipette
(now it looks just like a thermometer). This was diluted to 1.1

millliter with a 2% solution of Glacial aéetic acid. The pipette Small
was disconnected from the rubber hose and placed on a small ma- Lymphocyte
chine called a pipette shaker. It was methodically shaken for b5 21 - 30%

seconds. While this was going on, Ernie busied himself with
adjusting his microscope and preparing his slides that are eSpecially made for this

particular phase of the testo 'When all was ready9 hrnie took a small smownt of the
solution from the pipette and made a transference onto the slide9 called a homes
cytometer counting chambero He then carefully counted the white blood cells under
the low power adjective of a microscope. Depending on the geographical location
the normal count ranges i°rom 5, 000 to 1190UO. After telling me this9 he looked at
me sadly9 and after a tow breathless seconds on my part he said9 "Well9 Dav1du«r9
I'm afraid your count is a healthy 896009" thus concluding one phase oi the testo
The next phase gives the hemoglobin reading oi the blood and tells us about our
iron content.

In order to perform this phase, 5 m.l. of distilled water is placed into a test
tube and to this is added 0.02 m.l. of blood9 and one drop of concentrated emu
monium hydroxideo This is shaken vigoriously by hand for 10 seconds and alloWed
to set for 1s minuteso The tube is then placed into the Bausch & lomb Spectro=
photometer. The hemoglobin is read by wave lengthes set at Sub m.m.u. and read in
per cent of light transmittancy (well I don't know what it means either9 but thatvs
what he told me). My reading came out as 16.6 gram per cent oi hemoglobin a a per
fact reading. _

The final phase is called s.differential. This phase determines the normal develops
ment of blood cells, both red and white. One hundred white cells are observed to
obtain per cent diiferential of the white cells. A blood smear is
made with two glass slides stained for five minutes with Wright's
Stain, then buffed with water-for five minutes and afterwards
rinsed and allowed to dry. One drop of immersion oil is applied
and then the slide is observed under oil immersion with min

croscope light at high intensity. At least §.OOU9UOG cells Segmented

can be seen on one slide (l"x3£)., The scanning of the slide. Eosinophil

meets each week4day‘ between 1:30 P. M;
and 3:99 P. M. Beginners have use of the
band reom everyday, where they can prac-
tice individually,

we recently lost two fine musicians to
the free world, Mickey Smith‘ and "Skin"~
Hollowell. Thus we have lost our rythem
section, since Mickey” was our pianist
and 'Skin' our drummer.' So, at 'this
point these two Spots must be filled.
However, it doesn't matter what inatruu
ment you may now play or what instrument
you wish to learn. THE BAND NEEDS YOU!

One year ago this opportunity wasn't a-

vailable. 'There were only a few active
muSicians on the hill.” Teday we have a
full ’time‘ band" director, qualified to
teach. "Yet'there are still vacant spots
in the band. 'Surely, out of 1,200 men
there are a’féw of you that would like
to learn to play an instrument. You may
not'havev'this opportunity ’again. Who
knows,myou may decide to stay out in the
free-world once you leave here. You want
get 'free' music lessons out there.

See Mr. Gilson today or at your leisure.
He‘s"aniiou8' to meet“ you, and there
isnrt’an easier” pérSon on this bill to
talk to. The only qualifiCations are do»
sire and willingness to learn. See you
at the band room?
