PER CURIAM.

The petition for rehearing is granted. The order entered March 20, 1961, 365 U.S. 844, denying the petition for writ of certiorari is vacated and the petition for writ of certiorari to the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit is granted. The judgment is vacated and the case is remanded to the Court of Appeals for reconsideration in the light of Southard v. MacDonald, 360 P.2d 940.
