Atty., were on the brief, for appellee. Messrs. Nathan J. Paulson and Daniel J. McTague, Asst. U. S. Attys., also entered appearances for appellee.

Before WILBUR K. MILLER, Chief Judge, and DANAHER and BASTIAN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM.


On this appeal from conviction of the crime of assault with intent to commit robbery,1  appellant urges, first, that there was not sufficient evidence to show the requisite intent. We think the record amply justifies the jury's finding.

Further, appellant urges that the manner in which the jury returned its verdict was improper. It does not so appear, and, quite aside from that fact, no objection was made at the trial.2  We find no error affecting substantial rights.

Affirmed.
