OAKLAND (UP1 The oro.-rcu-
tioi: tried today to show tiuit Bur
ton W.' Abbott W3s so eager to gc.
admiued to a hospital after slay
Ine Stephanie Biya.) that he was
williiitr to flunk his accounting
courses.
Dim. Ally. J. Frank Coaklcy:
opened this poiru yesterday when;
he called Climou Gilliam, reaistrnr j
at University of California, to the I
stand. Abbott was a student at UC
last spring.
The delen.se entered violent
objec:ions ,io Gilliam's testimony.
Coaklcy explained that he wanted
to show that Abbott risked losini;
all his spring semester credits by
scekli.gr admission to the Veicrans
Administration Hospital at Liver
moro on Muv 3 and 13.
"It's just part of his guilty con
duct," Coakley snapped.
Supsrior Judge Chailes Wade
Snook adjourned court after hear
ing arguments. He promised to
rule on Uie admissabilily of Gil
liam as a witness this morning. I
Abbott is on trial for kiutinpiiis j
and murdering the 14-year-olt: i
Berkeley schoolgirl on April 28 I
Her body was found near his I
Trii.itv County mountain cabin on I
July 20. I
In calling Gilliam. Coakley was.
following up tiie testimony of Dr. I
Elmer J. Shabart. chief ot surgical
services at the VA Hospiial.
Shabart testified that Abbott
came to him May 3 and 13 of this
year asking to be admitted. Coak
ley asked whether Abbott's atti
tude then appeared to differ from
his attitude in 1951, when Shabart
removed the upper half of his let!
lung.
Shabart replied that Abbott was
"difficult to manage" when he
was a patient in 1951.
"In contrast, when I saw him on
May 3 and May 13. he appealed to
me almost overanxious to enter
the hospital," the doctor said.
The prosecution also tried to
disprove in advance the defense
claim that Abbott was too weak to
have .killed Stephanie .and carried
her 105-pound body up a steep hill
to her crude grave.
"Is the defendant a respiratory
cripple?" Coakley asked.
"In my opinion," Shabart said,
"he is not.".
Shabart said the 1951 operation
left Abbott with "roughly 75 pel
cent ot his normal lung capacity."
