Last Prisoners Leave Alcatraz Prison
Wearing handcuffs and leg irons the last prisoners leave Alcatraz for other Federal prisons. It's "open house" at Alcatraz as the last of its 1500 prisoners are removed to other Federal penitentiaries. Reporters and cameramen are allowed to roam at will through the corridors and cell blocks of "The Rock" in San Francisco Bay that once confined the nation's most desperate criminals.
