RADIO HyPNOT|SM
|. SUCCESS DOUBTED
Physicians, Witnesses to
Test, Say Only One of Three
Subjects Responded.
ny the Associated Press.

ny the Associated Press.
BOSTON, Mrch 10.-Doubts as
to the success of Prof. Gerald Flt2glb-
bons' attempts to hypnotic three men
over the radio last night were eX-
pressed by the two physicians ap-
pointed to witness the ests and eX-
anime the subjects.
The professor went on the air from
Station WBZ, in Springfield, with his
three subjects lined up in Boston
awaiting his commands.
One Not Affected.
The two subjects chosen, William l..
Hall and Charles Marshall, who have
worked with the hypnotist before, re-
sponded to his commands, but the
third, Aaron Dashoff of Fall River, a
Harvard student, unknown to the hyp-
notist and chosen by Westinghouse
officials, was not affected.
DIR. c. A. Bonner, superintendent fo
the Boston Psychopathic Hospital, and
DIR. A. Warren Stearns, psychiatrist
of the Massachusetts States Prison,
were the doctors who witnessed the
experiment. Reporting on Hall they
expressed the opinion that he was
making supreme efforts to get into a
hypnotic state" but that they were
unable to say with assurance that
he was under deep hypnotic influence. :"
One Entirely Cooperative"
Marshall was entirely cooperative"
and carried out the professors instruc-
tions with greater genuineness."
In summing up, the physicians ex-
pressed regret that the speed with
which the suggestions were made and
the consciousness that the messages
by Prof. Fitzgibbons once gone could
not be recalled, gave us a rather un.
satisfactory opportunity to determine
the genuineness of the demonstration
with the finality which might have
been expected"
