CUMMINGS, Circuit Judge (with whom KILEY, Circuit Judge, joins)
concurring.
For the reasons given by my Brother Enoch, the preliminary indoctrination *1369given the entire panel from which the jurors were selected did not contain material that would justify reversal. However, to avoid recurring attacks on indoctrinations of potential jurors, trial judges will be well advised to confine their remarks more closely to the matters contained in the Handbook for Jurors Serving in the United States District Courts, 26 F.R.D. 549. Otherwise, counsel for unsuccessful litigants will press their attacks on this ex parte practice, which can so readily lead to abuse resulting in reversible error.
