No. 77-1123Summary Calendar.*
United States Court of Appeals,Fifth Circuit.
Dec. 22, 1978.

Before THORNBERRY, GODBOLD and RUBIN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:

1
It appears that petitioner, a state prisoner seeking habeas corpus, did not exhaust in state court his claim that the state knowingly concealed evidence favorable to him.  The district court, therefore, correctly dismissed his petition on the ground of failure to exhaust.  Galtieri v. Wainwright, 582 F.2d 348 (CA5, 1978) (en banc).

2
AFFIRMED.
