The opinion
GARFIELD, Chief Justice
(dissenting).
I dissent from the majority opinion on grounds indicated in the specially concurring opinion of Justice LeGrand, together with the further fact the Supreme Court has not clearly held that its decision in Boykin v. Alabama, 395 U.S. 238 , 89 S.Ct. 1709 , 23 L.Ed.2d 274 , must be applied retroactively.
SNELL, MOORE, and STUART, JJ„ join in this dissent.
