Suhject: SI and H experimentation 7 August 1951 (Rooms 20, 3, and 8, 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM).

On Tuesday, 7 August l95l, Messrs and the writer- conducted experiments in SI and H between 6:00 PM and 9:00 PM with and as subjects and/or observers.

This session was opened by a briefing and a lengthy discussion of the experiments involving "normal" activity and the relationship these experiments had to some operational problems. After which, the following experiments were discussed:

was sent into another room and was placed under deep trance and given post hypnotic that she was to go to room where WaS was given a code word upon the use of which hy would then dropat once into adeepntrance and would then do as -suggested. was then awakened. from decn trance ad she then went to room where was. then gave a brief interview and used code word. immediately entered deep trance and was able to give her instructions whichs carriedout. Afte -completed her test, positions were reversed and ran successfully.

This test is regarded as important in that it demonstrates that a person having no ability or knowledge of SI or H techniques can assume control of and run an individual via a code word. This test should have operational value.

The secondexperiment consisted of placing, both and under deep trance, then returning them in a completely "normal" state although still in deep trance. After which, hoth and visited the latter's office--examined her office, talked to etc.for about 15minutes, then left. During entire test both and remained under deep trance yet so complotely normal that did not suspect in any way that both and ayere under complete SI control!

It should be noted that.inboth above tests, total amnesia was..obtained.

A third short experiment was conducted testing whether the hearing of a subject, under SI could be made sharper.' Both

were tested on ten cards which were identified hy vcry light whispers ačross the room. In each case, hoths "and were able to identify as much higher percentage of cards ty hearing than could other persons in the roon sit.ting closer to operator calling the cards. Test is significant, hut, of course, would require exhaustive tests on many subjects before positive conclusions could be reached.

Remainder of period was devoted to discussions regarding future SI and H experimentations.

Comment:

Both tests l and 2 regarded as highly successful and of high operational value.
