Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
We find no abuse of discretion by the trial court in permitting counsel for plaintiff to make a "unit of time" argument in the final portion of his closing argument. All of the protective features required by Baron Tube Co. v. Transport Insurance Co., 5 Cir., 1966, 365 F. 2d 858 (en banc), were employed.
Affirmed.
