If I exlude TURN from the analysis there still remain 567 entries with
HELIX/SHEET overlap. Many of those are overlapping only at one of the
border residues but there are also cases with larger overlaps. These
include helix fully inside sheet (e.g. 1B7Y) and sheet fully inside
helix (e.g. 1DE8).
By the way there are also examples with larger overlaps with turns (e.g.
1AMR).

I analyzed now also the record order and it is the same for all entries:
  HELIX, SHEET, TURN
So I don't think this can be used as a criterium.
