Head Matter:
The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. George Smith, Appellant.

Opinion:
We find no error on the part of the trial court warranting reversal of the conviction, but determine that the fine of $500, in addition to imprisonment for six months, made the sentence excessive. Accordingly, the judgment should be modified by eliminating the fine and, as so modified, affirmed. ¡Present — Cohn, J. P., Callahan, Breitel, Bastow and Botein, JJ.
