## Opinion text

DONALD RUSSELL, FIELD and WIDENER, Circuit Judges,
dissenting:
The district judge acted upon Locklear’s motion during the interim between our decisions in Brown v. United States, 483 F.2d 116 (1973), and Stepheney, supra. To us, the record discloses faithful adherence to the precepts of Brown and we would affirm.
