Marital Mixups Explained
by Dr. Berry As Due to
Hard Life of Doctors'
Wives; First Wife Friendly
Two Killed, Many Hurt In Tube Crash
OLYMPIA. Aug. 28. ,AP) Dr,
Kent W, Be try. whose alleged ktdnap-
beatlng of Irving Baker here last
Friday night set Olympla tongue
wagging at a fast pace, said today
I.e "never before bad been In any
kind of trouble."
He and four others are charged
with first degree kidnaping and as
sault In connection with the affair,
allegedly the climax of a Fourth of
, July party during which Baker la
accused by Berry of Illicit relations
with the physician's wife.
The former Montesano, Wash., and
Roundup and Lew la town, Mont., doc
tor said even now he has not been
served with a warrant for his arrest
although he Is In the county Jail
In lieu of (25.000 bait. "They just
picked me up." Dr. Berry aald. "I
never have been arrested before
this."
It's Hard Life
Borne marital troubles he admitted
ha has had, but added, "my first
wife and I lived together for 16
years. Any doctor's wife has a hard
life," he added. "A physician. Is
cone from his home at all hours of
the day and night, and for long In
tervala. "But she will" tell you I never was
unkind to her. She still likes me."
The well-known cnpltal city physic
ian said he had heard reports to
the effect he had been In diffi
culties during his res Id en co in Mon
tesnno a few years ago. "Why, I
never had any trouble down there.
This la all there Is to that:
"I was attending a woman patient,
when the front door of the house
opened and someone entered. The
husband went into the front room
and discovered a Negro had entered.
He told him to leave, and after
they had a few words I went out
there nnd told him to get out.
"He ran out the front door.
Deputized A gill nt Will .
"I later returned downtown and
met the night marshal, who had !
been told of the Incident, and he
deputized me-agalnst my will to
go out and pick up the Negro and
nrtnff him to jail,
"Another man volunteered to ac
company me, an offer I was very
happy to ncccpt. After we had
cruised about for somo time, search
ing for the man, we came upon a
crowd of persons their arms and
legs in rapid motion.
"We rescued the badly - beaten
Negro from the crowd nnd returned
mm to the town marshal. Now, If
there Is anything wrong in that, I
don't know what It Is. We saved that
man from thoso people. Of course,
ha later died, but I had nothing to
do with that. I was never charged
with having participated In that af
fair." The Interview started when the
doctor was asked about his health.
He aald he was having lots of good
sleep and felt fine. "There Is noth
ing to worry about. When a man Is
right, nothing disturbs him," he
said.
"When thla all comes out, the
whole story, you. will understand,"
he continued.
