Date 6/18/62
On June 13, 1962, Celi 152 in B Block, Alcatraz
Prison, was entered for the purpose of searching the cell.
This cell was formerly occupied by Subject CLARENCE ANGLIN.
Upon entering the cell, immediately to the right is the cot
or bed assigned the prisoner. The cell was noted to be 5 feet
wide and 9 feet long. Lying on the bed with a head just inside
the bars was the dummy head left in such a manner to represent
a prisoner asleep. An examination of this head disclosed that
it had bean primirily made of material resombling sheeting
and taped together forming a pad approximately 3 inches to 4
inches thick and about 8 inches in diameter.
One side of this dummy head was covered with a
heavy soap material which enabled the facial features of a
human to be molded and this, in turn, was painted in general
fiesh color tones. This head Was complete even to the dda@aii
of an ear, which had a hole where it should be. This ear,
however, had either been jarred loose and laid there by the
prisoner or some other individual.
The hair on this head appeared to be human hair and
was dark in color. A small section of sheeting was draped
over the top part of the head as though to protect it from
draft through the cell bars. The head was faced toward the
cell opening.
The "body" was covered by a white navy blanket and
sheet which had been drawn up to the chin, Six blankets had
been rolled or wadded in a manner to make up a "body" and the
lower left leg was made up of the lower portion of a man's
long underwear. The head was resting on two pillows.
At the foot of the bed lying on the floor between
the bed and the toilet was a section of simulated wall containing
the simulated grill. The simuiated grili and wail section
measured 15 inches in length by 10 inches in height, and had
been painted green to match the paint on the lower portion of
the cell wall. The simulated wall section had been constructed
