ON PETITION FOR REHEARING
PER CURIAM:
Appellants Vincent Aloi and Ralph Lombardo have urged in a petition for rehearing that the failure to charge willfulness as to Count 18 was not waived and was plain error under the law of this circuit, citing, e. g., United States v. Howard, 506 F.2d 1131 (2d Cir. 1974), and United States v. Fields, 466 F.2d 119 (2d Cir. 1972). However, in view of Judge Knapp’s charge to the jury, applying the principles of Pinkerton v. United States, 328 U.S. 640, 66 S.Ct. 1180, 90 L.Ed. 1489 (1946), and in view of the broad definition of “use” we have earlier approved, 511 F.2d at 599 — 600, we do not agree that there was plain error.
The petition for rehearing is denied.
