       Circuit judge, sitting on the Court of Appeals by assignment.
    
   Per Curiam.

Defendant was tried and convicted by the court, sitting without a jury, of felonious assault and was sentenced to a term of three to four years in prison. MCLA § 750.82 (Stat Ann 1962 Rev § 28.277). On appeal, defendant claims that his conviction was against the great weight of the evidence. An examination of the record on appeal discloses sufficient evidence, if believed by the trier of the facts, to support the finding that defendant was guilty, beyond a reasonable doubt, of felonious assault. People v. Petrosky (1938), 286 Mich 397; People v. Szymanski (1948), 321 Mich 248; People v. Hogan (1967), 9 Mich App 78; People v. Jeter (1970), 21 Mich App 158.

Affirmed.
