Before RONEY, KRAVITCH and TATE, Circuit Judges.


PER CURIAM:

Defendants were convicted of possession of marijuana with intent to distribute and conspiracy, 21 U.S.C.A. §§ 841(a)(1), 846. Their major contention on appeal is that evidence of the warrantless seizure of several thousand pounds of marijuana was wrongfully admitted. Some defendants contend there was insufficient evidence to sustain their convictions. Finding these arguments to be without merit, we affirm the convictions.
