The opinion

MR. JUSTICE CASTLES

(dissenting):

I join Justice John Conway Harrison’s dissent. I add that the majority opinion is doing great damage to a simple system of charging crimes as contemplated' by the Code of Criminal Procedure. We appear to be returning to the highly technical dotting of the “i” and crossing the “t” by distinguishing between subsections of major crimes.

I would affirm the judgment.

In this cause a petition for rehearing was granted. The Court having heard oral arguments, taken the matter under advisement in conference, and there being no change in position,

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that the original opinion stand. Let the remittitur issue.
