Opinion of the Court

Per Curiam.

The indictment charges that money was obtained in the amount of $72.50. The evidence tended to prove that the thing obtained was a check for $72.50. “Money” and “check” are not synonymous. The state failed to prove the charge in the indictment. The judgment of the Court of Appeals is reversed.

Judgment reversed.
