Opinion — Per Curiam

PER CURIAM.

This is an appeal from a judgment of the district court denying a writ of habeas corpus by which appellant sought to attack a Texas state court sentence imposed pursuant to Article 63, Texas Penal Code, the Habitual Offender Statute. He contends that the indictment reciting the former convictions should not *688 have been read to the trial jury and that proof of these convictions was not properly made. The complaints are without merit. Taylor v. Beto, 5 Cir., 346 F.2d 157 ; Reed v. Beto, 5 Cir., 343 F.2d 723 ; 11 A.L.R.2d 870 .
