Michael Hegner (argued), San Diego, Cal., for appellant.
Shelby R. Gott (argued), Asst. U. S. Atty., Harry Stewart, U. S. Atty., San Diego, Cal., for appellee.
Before CHAMBERS, MURRAH and KILKENNY, Circuit Judges.
The Honorable Alfred P. Murrali, Senior Circuit Judge. Tenth Circuit, sitting by designation.

The judgment of conviction is affirmed.
On the sufficiency of the evidence, the somewhat weak circumstances presented were shored up on knowledge, transportation and importation by Ramsey’s many inconsistent statements. Taken together, these statements could permit affirmative inferences.
