Argued Oct. 10, 1968.Decided Oct. 29, 1968

Leo Catsonis, Asst. Atty. Gen., of West Virginia (C. Donald Robertson, Atty. Gen., of West Virginia, on brief) for appellee.
Before HAYNSWORTH, Chief Judge, and WINTER and CRAVEN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
We find the record supports the findings and conclusions of the District Court that, at the petitioner's arraignment in a state court in 1962, he understood that the court would appoint a lawyer for him if he could not afford it, and that his waiver of counsel was intelligent and voluntary.
Denial of the writ of habeas corpus is affirmed.
Affirmed.
