From Delaware Circuit Court; Clarence W. Dearth, Judge.
Prosecution by the State of Indiana against Sidney Allen for unlawfully having intoxicating liquor in his possession. From a judgment of conviction, the defendant appeals.
Reversed,
William, A. McClellan, for appellant.
U. S. Lesh, Attorney-General, and Mrs. Edward Franklin White, Deputy Attorney-General, for the State.

Per Curiam.
Appellant was charged by affidavit with having intoxicating liquor in his possession, and his motion to quash the affidavit on the ground that it did not charge a public offense was overruled.
