## Opinion text

ON PETITION FOR REHEARING.
Appellant has renewed the request he made below for attorney’s fees. The district court’s opinion would indicate the request had been dropped. 288 F.Supp. 719, at 728 . Appellant asserts otherwise. We believe this matter should be disposed of by the district court on remand of the case. See Gartner v. Soloner, 384 F.2d 348 (3d Cir. 1967), cert. denied, 390 U.S. 1040 , 88 S.Ct. 1633 , 20 L.Ed.2d 302 (1968). Accordingly, petition for rehearing is denied.
