MR. JUSTICE DRUCKER delivered the opinion of the court:

After a bench trial, defendant was convicted of the offense of "obscenity" and fined $500. He filed a writ of error urging (1) that defendant was not proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt; (2) that the court erred in refusing to consider proper evidence; (3) that defendant did not knowingly present the performance; and (4) that the indictment failed to charge an offense.
