Before SCHWAB, C.J., THORNTON, J., and FORT, Senior Judge.


FORT, Senior Judge.

Defendant was convicted upon consolidation of four indictments of four counts of burglary I, three counts of rape I, and one count of attempted rape I. He appeals from the resulting judgments and assigns three errors, emphasizing particularly the refusal of the trial judge to allow him, on direct examination of his own witness, to inquire whether that witness had been convicted of a crime. The state on cross-examination made such an inquiry.
