MARTIN, Chief Justice.

Appellant Dane and his codefendants Cody and Raymond were jointly indicted and tried on a charge of engaging in a pugilistic encounter in the District of Columbia. Cody and Raymond were acquitted. The appellant Dane was convicted and sentenced, from which he has appealed. He contends that the indictment failed to charge a crime; also that the indictment would not support a verdict of guilty as to him and not guilty as to his codefendants.
