STATE of Louisiana ex rel. Pat W. WARD v. C. Murray HENDERSON, Warden, Louisiana State Penitentiary, et al.
    No. 53366.
    Supreme Court of Louisiana.
    April 19, 1973.
   In re: Pat W. Ward applying for writ of habeas corpus.

Writ denied. The trial judge’s reasons are correct.

BARHAM, J.,

is of the opinion the writ should be granted. The evidentiary hearing fails to show a free and knowing plea and affirmatively shows ineffective counsel at plea.
