PER CURIAM:

1
We affirm.  The border patrol agent had both probable cause and appellant's consent for the search at Sarita checkpoint.  See United States v. Nichols, 5 Cir. 1977, 560 F.2d 1227.  Appellant's other contention respecting the stipulation to the chain of custody is also without merit.

2
AFFIRMED.
