The opinion

John A. Fogleman, Justice, concurring. I concur in the majority holding relating to the suppression of evidence obtained by search for the same reasons given in my concurring opinion in Brown v. State, No. CR-75-27, 259 Ark. 449 , 534 S.W. 2d 213 (1976).

I concur in the court’s action on Brown’s motion for severance only because the ground argued here, i.e., the antagonism of the co-defendant Bettis, was not asserted in the trial court. Since this issue is raised for the first time on appeal, we could not well say that the circuit judge abused his discretion in that respect.
