TWO LIFE-TERM CONVICTS FREED BY T. B. TESTS •Human Guinea Pigs’ Given Paroles After Surviving Experiments. By L Hitffl Press DENVER, Dec. 19.—Two Colorado convicts who had expected to die in prison will leave the Canon City Penitentiary tomorrow, paroled for "outstanding service to humanity.” They are Mike Schmidt and Carl Erickson, granted Christmas paroles by Gov. Edwin C. Johnson after they emerged in perfect healtn from tests of a new’ serum developed by a Denver physician and designed to prevent tuberculosis. The two men, one serving a life term for rape, the other for w’ife murder, volunteered to become the first "human guinea pigs” to te used in experiments with the serurr, the result of years of research on the part of Dr. H J. Corper of the National Jewish Hospital here, and his associates. Last May the men were given inoculations of the serum. A few weeks later they received injections of tuberculosis bacilli. Carefully watched by physicians, neither at any time shewed any bad effects beyond ‘very sore arms” soon after the injections. A week' ago Dr. Corper, Dr. R. E. Holmes, the prison physician, and others agreed that, in their cases at least, the serum had proved successful in fighting off the disease. Under exhaustive examination, they emerged with the doctors’ certificate of perfect health. Complimenting them for their “service to humanity.” Gov. Johnson commuted the life sentences to make possible Christmas paroles for them. While there was no room for doubt that the serum had been successful In these two cases, physicians avoided any positive statement as to how nearly effective for general use It might be in its pres- j ent form.
