Doctor Pessimistic About Wallace Walking SILVER SPRING, MD. (AP)--One of George C. Wallace's doctors said last night there is "less than a 50-50 chance" the Alabama gover- nor ever will walk again. Even if he can walk, it will probably be only with the aid of leg braces, the doctor said. Meanwhile, Wallace continued in good spir- its, chatting with hospital visitors and ea- gerly reading newspaper accounts of his pri- mary election victories in Maryland and Mi- chigan. Dr. James Galbraith, a University of Alaba- ma neurosurgeon who has been attending Wal- lace, said a bullet which cut him down at a campaign rally Monday is lodged in the spine but is causing no pressure on the spinal cord. ie said the bullet wedged itself between two vertebrae, protruding into the bony canal that shields the nerve cord.

Charles Snider, national director of the Wallace campaign, said Governor's For4 stand-ins for the governor were being lined up, and that one of them would be his wife, Cornelia, 33, who was at his side when he was shot.
