1Opinion of the Court
WISDOM, Circuit Judge:
David K. Morris was tried and convicted by a jury of six counts of interstate racketeering. The first count charged the appellant with engaging in an interstate enterprise through a pattern of racketeering activity in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1962(c). The remaining counts 1 charged the appellant with five separate acts of interstate travel in aid of racketeering, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1952(a)(3). On appeal, he urges four grounds for reversing the verdict. We find none persuasive and affirm the judgment of the district court.
