Convicts Go Nudist
-Nudism has come to Statevill Penitentiary. Between 300 and 400 marked convicts paraded from their cells, spread blankets on the ground, and proceeded to allow the sun to make their faces red, and their bqdies tanned. Warden Frank D. Whipp explained: “It's good for the blankets and it’s good for the man. The walls are 33 feet high-, so privacy is assured."
