ROSS, Circuit Judge.

John J. Vitale was indicted by a grand jury for distributing, and conspiring to distribute, two ounces of cocaine in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841, 846 (1981). The defendant was tried before a jury and found guilty on both counts of the indictment. The district court 1 sentenced Vitale to ten years imprisonment on each count, with the sentences to run concurrently, and imposed a ten year special parole term. The defendant appeals his conviction alleging that several errors were committed by the district court. For the reasons stated herein, we affirm the conviction.
