Opinion:
DAVIDSON, P. J.
This conviction was for violating article 302 of the Penal Code, on a charge of exhibiting in a place of amusement on Sunday a moving picture show. The majority of the court holds the law valid and the conviction proper. I do not agree with their conclusions, but in obedience to the views of the majority as presented in the Zucarro Case, 197 S. W. 982, this day decided, this judgment will be affirmed.
