Dissenting Opinion by
Me. Justice Pomeeoy:
I respectfully dissent from the reversal of the judgment of sentence because it is based upon a retrospective application of the exclusionary rule first announced in Commonwealth v. Futch, 447 Pa. 389, 290 A.2d 417 (1972). See the dissenting opinion of this writer in Commonwealth v. Johnson, 458 Pa. 425, 327 A.2d 618 (1974) and the opinions therein cited.
Mr. Chief Justice Jones and Mr. Justice Eagen join in this dissenting opinion.
