D. Gardiner Tyler, Assistant Attorney General of Virginia, argued the cause for respondent. With him on the briefs was Robert Y. Button, Attorney General of Virginia.

Mr . Justice Clark , concurring: Since the Court finds that the “spiked” mike used by the police officers penetrated petitioner’s premises sufficiently to be an actual trespass thereof, I join in the judgment.
Mr . Justice White dissents.
