Written by the judges who cited it.
The opinion
WADE, Justice.
I concur with the prevailing opinion that this statute is unconstitutional because it is unreasonably discrimina- *381 toiy. Since that disposes of the case, it is not necessary to decide whether a conviction under this statute lacks due process of law because the statute is too uncertain. I therefore express no opinion on that question.
