Williams Sent
To HosoitaE
Robert Lee Williams, 21-year-old
Klmath Fa'ls truck driver, who
was. charged with armed robbery
after he was wounded in a holdup
eiteinnt, was ordered sent to Ore
gon State Hospital Tuesday for a
psychiatric examination.
Circuit Judge David R. Vanden
berg took this action at the rquest
cf Defense Attorney Edwin E.
Driscoll. The district attorneys of
fice .'did not object.
Williams was arrested at Klam
ath Valley Hospital when he ap
plied for treatment after he had
been shot in the left shoulder by
Lawrence B. Gaylird. attendant at
Vaden's Service Station. Williams
attempted to hold up Gaylord.
Subsequently, Williams confessed
to District Attorney Richard Bees-lt-y
, 0at he robbed a clerk at
Iaetla'a Grocery Store and nlso
held up two other service stations
within a week.
Judge Vandenberg ordered Sher
iff Murray Britton to take Williams
to the state hospital and return
him; to Klamath Falls in 30 days.
. Attorney Driscoll said there was
no-- logical reason for Williams
staging the scries holdups.
' i believe, this young man has
some sort of mental quirk or
block." Driscoll declared, "which
is too subtle lor the ordinary lay
men to detect."
Last week aiter leaving a physi
cians office -in the Medical-Dental
Building in custody of Deputy Sher
iff Del Summers, Williams made
a futile attempt to escape. He was
pursued by Summers for several
blocks and finally recaptured.
