SUPPLEMENTAL OPINION ON DENIAL OF REHEARING JUSTICE CAMPBELL delivered the opinion of the court:  Defendant has filed a petition for rehearing in this matter requesting a modification of the opinion in accordance with this court’s recent decision in People v. Frazier (1984), 127 Ill. App. 3d 151. Frazier holds that, on review, the names of prosecutors be cited in those cases where the State has used peremptory challenges to systematically exclude blacks from juries. We are in agreement with Frazier. Accordingly, the prosecutors representing the State in the selection of the jury in the case at bar were Assistant State’s Attorneys John Mellen and John Lieberman. We pass no judgment and make no further reference in regard to their conduct or motive in the present case or in any other case. BUCKLEY, P.J., concurs. McGLOON, J., dissents.
