of time, which shall not exceed the maximum term of im-
prisonment provided by statute for the offense of which said
person was convicted, and in the event no penalty is provided
by statute for said offense, then the court shall prescribe the
maximum term of imprisonment; provided, however, that
nothing herein contained shall apply to any case in which the
sentence is life imprisonment or to the service of time for non-
payment of a fine.

759. The Board of Correction shall employ a Superintendent
for said institution, which Superintendent shall serve during
the pleasure of the Board, and shall receive such salary as
shall be provided in the budget, and, in addition thereto, the
said Board may allow him subsistence, fuel and dwelling, but
said Superintendent shall receive no other compensation or
perquisites. The said Superintendent shall employ, with the
approval of said Board, and subject to the provisions of the
Merit System, such other personnel as said Board shall deem
necessary and proper for the management and control of said
institution.

760. Upon receiving persons sentenced to said institution
for an indeterminate period of time, the said Board shall cause
such persons to be studied, classified and assigned to such
training as may be deemed properly conducive to their rehabili-
tation, and shall cause such records of the conduct and other
pertinent matters of said persons to be kept as it may deem
proper to determine their progress toward rehabilitation, and
to enable the Board to determine when such persons may,
with safety to the public and with benefit to themselves, be
considered for parole, and when the Board shall conclude that
any person serving an indeterminate sentence in said institu-
tion may properly be paroled therefrom, it shall recommend to
the Director of Parole and Probation such person for parole
upon such conditions as it shall deem proper, under the direct
supervision and control of the Director of Parole and Proba-
tion. Thereafter all provisions of law relating to the authority
of the Director of Parole and Probation over paroled prisoners
including the power to revoke paroles, shall be applicable. In
the event of the revocation of the parole, such person shall
serve the unexpired term of the maximum imprisonment im-
posed upon him provided, however, that said Board of Correc-
tion may thereafter, in its discretion, recommend to the Direc-
tor of Parole and Probation another parole for such person if
it shall deem it advisable to do so, any such subsequent parole
to be fully subject to the powers and duties of the Director of
Parole and Probation as to revocations, as above provided for
a first parole.
