259 La. 705
    STATE of Louisiana ex rel. Joe Bob PATTERSON v. C. Murray HENDERSON, Warden, Louisiana State Penitentiary, et al.
    No. 51703.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    Sept. 21, 1971.
   In re: Joe Bob Patterson applying for certiorari, mandamus, prohibition and ha-beas corpus.

Writ refused. The showing made is insufficient to warrant the exercise of our supervisory or original jurisdiction.

BARHAM, J., is of the opinion the writ should be granted. See dissent in State ex rel. Thompson v. Henderson, 258 La. 548, 246 So.2d 859.

DIXON, J.,

dissents from refusal. Boy-kin requires the record of the conviction disclose intelligent and informed waiver of constitutional rights. If Boykin had been followed in this case, the evidentiary hearing would not have been necessary.
