WAINWRIGHT, Director, Di PER CURIAM: The sole issue on this appeal from the denial of petition for habeas corpus is whether the comments of the prosecutor in closing argument to the jury in the state trial constituted comment upon the failure of appellants to take the stand and testify in their own behalf. We agree with the district court, after a study of the remarks in question, that the jury could not have interpreted them as commentary on the failure of the appellants to take the stand, and therefore affirm.
