Opinion

Per Curiam.

The motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and the petition for a writ of certiorari are granted. The judgment is reversed. Jackson v. Denno, 378 U. S. 368; Sims v. Georgia, 385 U. S. 538. The case is remanded for further proceedings not inconsistent with the opinions in those cases. Jackson v. Denno, 378 U. S., at 394-396; Sims v. Georgia, 385 U. S., at 544.

Mr. Justice Black dissents.
