Before PERRY, C.J., and SLOAN and GOODWIN, JJ.

PER CURIAM.

In this appeal we are asked to re-examine our decision in State v. Carlton, 1963, 233 Or. 296, 378 P.2d 557, in respect to a thief being charged with receiving and concealing stolen property. We decline to do so. In this case the indictment was charged in the conjunctive. 'Proof of any one of the acts charged was sufficient to make out the offense.' State v. Soasey, 1964, 237 Or. 167, 171, 390 P.2d 190, 192. There was such proof in the case.

Judgment affirmed.
