State Prison… After Shift - The camera's eye view takes in the State Prison at Walpole, scene of several incidents of unrest. Gone now are the "23 trouble making tough guys," transferred from the modern prison to "permanent isolation cells" at outmoded Concord Reformatory. Warden John Gavin, expecting retaliatory moves by friends of the transferred inmates, is keeping tight alert in force at the institution.
