GUARDS OUSTED AS SMUGGLERS
Structural Defects to Be Eliminated in Michigan City Buildings.
Three Michigan City State Prison |-
guards, charged with having smuggled sleep-producing medicine to oonvicts, today had been dis-{ missed by Thurman A. Gottschalk, State Public Welfare director. The guards, all of whom had been
employed at the prison several years, were Edward James, Gilson Whitesell and Walter W. Weaver. Meanwhile, plans were being completed to eliminate structural de-
fects’ which Mr. Gottschalk said|:
were largely responsible for the escape of five prisoners a few days ago. Three of the escaped convicts have been captured.
According to Mr. Gottschalk, the|
dismissal of the three guards had no connection with the break. A
two-month investigation of prison , near-perfect score,
smuggling has just been completed, he said. State officials still are altempting to determine how the saw blades, used by the five prisoners, were brought into the prison. Prison alterations are to include erection of a brick and concrete fire wall between a cell block and the old dormitory. The present partition which the convicts cut through, is of sheet metal. The rear of the Administration Building is to be lowered 10 feet and the guard tower is to be moved east 10 feet, thus eliminating the “blind spot” which the convicts used to go over the wall. Mr. Gottschalk also said two guards are to be on
-* duty in front of the Prison until the
changes are completed.
