““ ‘Nor do we find merit in appellant’s contention that he was deprived of an arraignment and plea on the amended information. . . . [W]e perceive here no violation of defendant’s substantial or constitutional right or any prejudice to him because his plea was not entered to the amended charge, for he secured all the advantages of a plea of not guilty regularly entered. . . .’In the present case it appears . . . that appellant acquiesced in the course pursued. ... No substantial right of appellant was prejudiced by the amendment or the failure to rearraign him. ’ ’”
