1Opinion of the Court

CRAVEN, Circuit Judge:

Dr. Robert N. DeVore was charged in a nine-count indictment involving unlawful sale of drugs in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 331 (q) (2), 331(q) (4) (Supp. IV 1965-1968) and 21 U.S.C. § 331 (p) (1964). After five counts were dismissed DeVore was tried and convicted on the remaining four counts, sentenced to a term of four years in prison, and fined $22,000. On appeal he assigns six points of error in support of his contention that we should direct acquittal, or at the very least, order a new trial. We believe none are meritorious and affirm.
