N. J. Kaufman, J.
(concurring in result). I concur in the result reached by the majority on the basis that the jury was told to consider only the evidence and exhibits admitted. The judge expressly stated that the jury could not examine the T.V. Guide, because it was not an exhibit. I am hesitant to take judicial notice for the first time on appeal of a fact for which no proof was offered below. Compare 31 CJS, Evidence, § 13(b), pp 841-842 and 22A CJS, Criminal Law, § 531, pp 234, 236.
