OPINION OF THE COURT

PER CURIAM.

This appeal of two defendants from their conviction of bank robbery raises two points, one concerning allegedly prejudicial evidence and the other concerning the court's charge on credibility. We have examined the record with care and find no error in the court's handling of either of these matters. There was not even an objection to the charge on credibility.

The judgment will be affirmed.
