Marine Pleads Guilty
To Daring Annapolis
Bank HoIdup
Unormed Youth Acted
! On Impulse, He Tells
u. S. Commissioner

By the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, Aug. ia soft
spoken, curly-haired young Marine
Corps private, Wilbur Russell Davis,
who said his daring act was done on
impulse, pleaded guilty today to the
gunless, daylight holdup Of the
Annapolis Banking & Trust Co.
The 23-year-old Davis, charged
with violating the Federal Bank Act
and with robbery of $500, went to
Jail in $4,000 bail after his arraign-
ment before United States Commits
sioner James K. Cullen.
Davis testified he had neither a
gun nor explosives Wednesday when
he showed a note through the wicket
to Teller w. Emerson Wiley, de-
manding $500 on a threat to blow
the place up" Federal agents said
$2,O71 of the money had been re-
covered.
Davis, enlisted in the Marine Corps
at Alexandria, La, two and a half
years ago and had been stationed
at the Naval Academy for several
months, was arrested by F. B. I.
agents yesterday.
He was held in Washington over
night and brought here by automo-
bile today. Davis walked into the
commissioner Office wearing a
snappy pair Of high-heeled Texas
boots, and declined counsel.
Commissioner Cullen asked him
when he got the idea to hold up the
bank, which is located half a block
from the State house in Annapolis.
1T just came to me as was pass
ing the bank" Davis said. Il wrapped
handkerchief around my hand, as
though had something in it and
walked in. I had never been in the
bank before. 1t just came to me on
impulse"
Davis said he wanted the money
because his wife was in poor health
and doctors had advised that she
take trip. Officers said Davis and
his wife, married last March, were
separated. Davis said his family was
in Alexandria, La.
