1Opinion of the Court

BRIGHT, Circuit Judge.

Appellants Delmar Earl Chrisco and Lewis Howell were tried before a jury in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri in January 1973 and convicted of robbing the Bank of St. Mary’s in St. Mary’s, Missouri, on August 3, 1972, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 2113. On appeal, they raise a total of 12 separate allegations of error. We have examined each ground of error but find no grounds for reversal. Two grounds merit detailed discussion —those relating to the impaneling of the jury and to the prosecutor’s closing argument.
