J. H. Gillis, J.
Defendant was charged with *330breaking and entering a hardware store in Iosco County, Michigan, on November 2, 1971. Jurisdiction of defendant, a juvenile, was waived by a December 9, 1971 order of the juvenile division of Iosco County Probate Court. An information was issued charging the defendant in the first count with breaking and entering, MCLA 750.110; MSA 28.305. A second count charged the defendant with larceny in a building, MCLA 750.360; MSA 28.592. The defendant proffered a plea of guilty to the second count and was then questioned extensively by the trial court. The plea was accepted and the defendant was subsequently sentenced to three years probation. One of the probationary terms was that defendant serve the first six months in the county jail.
On appeal, the defendant contends that he was not properly advised of his constitutional rights as required by People v Jaworski, 387 Mich 21 (1972). A second allegation of reversible error posed by the defendant was that the trial court improperly considered the defendant’s juvenile record in sentencing him.
We have examined the transcript of the plea proceedings and find that the three basic requirements set forth in the Jaworski decision were met by the trial court.
We feel that the trial court may use defendant’s juvenile record as background information in order to make a proper determination as to what sentence to impose on the defendant. People v Coleman, 19 Mich App 250 (1969); People v Welch, 25 Mich App 694 (1970); People v Bradshaw, 28 Mich App 354 (1970); and People v Ward, 33 Mich App 308 (1971).
Affirmed.
