1Opinion of the CourtJustice McNAMARA

The defendant, Bichard L. Wendt, was indicted for the crime of indecent liberties with a child in violation of 111 Bev Stats 1965, c 38, § 11-4. After a trial without a jury, he was found guilty of that crime and sentenced to a term of 1 to 3 years in the penitentiary. He appeals, contending that he was not proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt; that the trial court erred in excluding evidence of the reputation of the complaining witness; that the trial court erred in allowing evidence of other offenses; and that the sentence imposed was harsh and should be reduced.
