RONEY, Circuit Judge:
Moody Nichols, George Newton, and Walter Clark were convicted under a multicount indictment charging among other things conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute methaqualone, 21 U.S.C.A. §§ 841(a)(1) and 846, and distribution and possession with intent to distribute diazepam, 21 U.S.C.A. § 841(a)(1) 1 . Numerous issues are raised on appeal: a fatal variance between the indictment and the proof; sufficiency of the evidence; improper joinder; a prejudicial change in the jury instructions after closing argument; and several evidentiary points. We affirm.
