PER CURIAM:


Charles Robert Muncaster was convicted [Counts I and II of the indictment, returned September 12, 1969] of failing and neglecting from January 17, 1967 to January 22, 1967, to register under the Military Selective Service Act of 1967, 50 App.U.S.C. 462.

This conviction is affirmed. See Local Rule 21.1 

Muncaster was likewise convicted [Counts III and IV] of a similar offense between January 17, 1967 and September 12, 1969. This conviction is reversed, Toussie v. United States, 397 U.S. 112, 90 S. Ct. 858, 25 L. Ed. 2d 156 (1970).

The indefinite sentence imposed under the Youth Corrections Act, 18 U.S.C., § 5010(b) remains undisturbed.
