BELCHER, Commissioner.

¶1The offense is the possession of a bomb; the punishment, five years in the penitentiary.

¶2This is a companion case to that of Pinkston v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 276 S.W.2d 259, to which we here refer for a summary of the evidence which is substantially the same as in this case. In the Pinkston case, the given name of appellant was not shown, but referred to as a man named Stephens, who was in the rear seat of the automobile at the time it was stopped.

¶3We find the evidence sufficient to support the conviction.

¶4Finding no reversible error, the judgment of the trial court is affirmed.

¶5Opinion approved by the court.
