Qn.24 July 1951, between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM, Messrs.2 and conducted ST and H experiments and tests with the fol lowing subjects: tand

After the usual general discussion, the firsttest was made. This test was to produce"normal" movement conversation and appearance in all suhiects wasiplaced in a somnambulistic state by some conversation was held and Subject was instructed to go into adjoining room and bring the phone book. completed test as directed, but in stopinion her movements were somewhat slower than normal and too deliberate. wsWas not given instructions on amnesia and after awakening recalled nearly all of her conversations and movements.

then placed under SI and after some excellent "normal" conversation, was instructed by to go into the adjoining room and find a note pad and write thereon. carried out all instructions successfully and in a very "normal" manner.

then placed under SI and a "nommal" con
versation took olace after which. anstructedto go
into the adjoining room and take a drink of water from the water
carafe and bring a glass of water back to him--all of which arried out in a completely normal fashion.

Upon conclusion of the first test, another discussion was held after which then plaçed all three subjects in a deep trance. then placed and fin the adjoining room and caused them -to sleep restingon desks while carefully questioned regarding general and personal,matters.

After tas finished, che was instructeo to cove into
Room 17 and was brought into Room20.
createdthe hallucination for that she was drinking
and "Old Fashion" cocktail and stated she "felt" the
cocktail, but did not become as intoxicated as did either nd. Messrs and thenquestione on personal matters in a normal conversational manner.

At the conclusion of this test, all subjects were given total amnesia which was entirely successful.

It should be.noted that during this whole test, all subjects were képt under SI for the entire time (ahout lO-50minutes) and during this period while questioned the subjects individually, made a series of tests for depth, control, etc. in the loading and working of including instructing a "Kodak35 subsequently removed this knowledge from and shé could not even recall seeing a "35" or remember tellingy about its working.)

Again as before at the conclusion of the second test, all subjects were briefed on the test and a discussion was held with the subjects on the final test of the evening: This test consisted of an attempt to have;each subject, under SI, memorize in rapid time a short quotationby reading same from a book--thereafter, each subject would be removed from the trance state ani moved into the adjoining room under post H control, where by agreement would return subject to the trance and have the subject wmitemoutwhile under SIthe memorized text. On this test, and executed the test without incident and moved normally during the post H period. However, was able to recall and write outthe fulltext of her quotation prior to being placed under SI by thereafter was placed under SI by and she again wrote the quotation verbatim.

Note:. This phenomena cannot be explained at this point.)

For matter of record only, this last test represents a stride toward the operational use of SI and will be the basis for a great many teststo be made later along these lines. :

With the exception of the unusual reaction of referred to aboua. all the above tests were regarded by Mesars and as successful. However, both and are of the opinion that, as a general rule, many tests and considerable coaching is necessary before a subject can function while under,SI in a; completely"normal", manner.
