The following excerpt is from People v. Nash, 261 Cal.App.2d 216, 67 Cal.Rptr. 621 (Cal. App. 1968):
Additionally, defendant made no objection to the admission of the testimony. Under the rule then applicable at the trial, such failure to object bars him from urging the matter on appeal. (People v. Corrigan (1957) 48 Cal.2d 551, 556, 310 P.2d 953.)
