1Opinion of the Court

OPINION

MORRISON, Judge.

The offense is robbery by assault; the punishment, life.

The record reflects that at approximately 9 A.M. on December 17, 1969, two men, wielding guns, entered the East Shop Drive-in Grocery in Irving, Texas and took $207.00 in cash and several other items including a radio. Both were apprehended later that day.

Appellant’s first contention is that the court erred in admitting his oral confession. He claims there is no showing he was admonished concerning his constitutional rights or that he voluntarily and intelligently waived these rights.
