¶1Jack F. McGuinn, Columbia, S. C. (Court-appointed counsel), for appellant.

¶2Robert G. Clawson, Jr., Asst. U. S. Atty. (John K. Grisso, U. S. Atty., on brief), for appellee.

¶3Before BOREMAN, Senior Circuit Judge, and WINTER and RUSSELL, Circuit Judges.

¶4PER CURIAM:

¶5In a previous appeal we remanded this ease to the district court for a full evi-dentiary hearing to determine whether defendant, who was convicted for refusing to report for induction, was ordered to report for induction illegally, in that the order was accelerated by reason of his delinquency. Bruce v. United States, 448 F.2d 21 (4 Cir. 1971). We find no error in the district court’s factual determination that defendant’s induction had not been accelerated.

¶6We find no merit in defendant’s other contentions on which decision was reserved in the prior appeal.

¶7Affirmed.
