No Trial For Bob' Walker
Topeka, Dec. 7—(UP) — Robert Walker, the $2,000-a-week Hollywood movie star, appeared likely today to avoid police court trial on charges of destroying about $20 worth of public property.
City Attorney Frank Eresch said a drunkenness charge also probably would be dropped. It might have resulted in a $10 fine, if prosecuted.
Police chief E. W. Kaul continued Mr. Walker's case until Friday and indicated that if payment is made for breakage damage that Mr. Walker caused at police headquarters early Sunday the matter may be wiped off the books.
Mr. Walker, who went on a Saturday night spree with three companions, walloped three police station door panels with his bare fists. He suffered severe hand cuts.
The actor was revealed as a patient at Meninger psychiatric clinic here. Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer studio officials and Meninger spokesmen said he was "a very sick man."
Chief Kaul said he had been assured by Menninger authorities that all expenses for destroyed property will be paid by the clinic.
Mr. Eresch said it would be necessary only for Menninger officials to testify as to Mr. Walker's condition, and added: "We never try a fellow in a mental institution."
