Opinion

PER CURIAM.

Appellant was convicted of robbery. D.C.Code, § 22-2901 (1951). On appeal, his principal contention is that his oral admissions to the police should have been excluded as evidence, under Mallory v. United States, 1957, 354 U.S. 449, 77 S.Ct. 1356, 1 L.Ed.2d 1479, and the cases which preceded it. But no objection was raised at the trial. Nor is there present here any suggestion of coercion, or any factor which might make it appropriate to reach the question of admissibility despite the absence of objection. See Lawson v. United States, 1957, 101 U.S.App.D.C. 332, 248 F.2d 654, certiorari denied 1958, 355 U.S. 963, 78 S.Ct. 552, 2 L.Ed.2d 537; cf. Perry v. United States, 1957, 102 U.S.App.D.C. 315, 253 F.2d 337; Blackshear v. United States, 1958, 102 U.S.App.D.C. 289, 252 F.2d 853.

Affirmed.
