   Luke, J.

The defendant was found guilty of committing “a notorious act of public indecency,” and there was ample evidence to authorize such a finding, which is approved by the trial judge. The motion for a new trial based on the general grounds only was properly overruled.

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, C. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur.
