    November 25, 1996
    Before JONES, DeMOSS and PARKER, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:*
    Zaire Humphrey appeals from his conviction for distribution
    of cocaine, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1).     Our review of
    the record and the arguments and authorities convince us that no
    reversible error was committed.   Humphrey’s entrapment claim is
    without merit because a reasonable jury could find, beyond a
    reasonable doubt, that he was disposed to commit the criminal act
    prior to first being approached by Government agents.     See United
    *
    Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined
    that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
    except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule
    47.5.4.
    No. 96-30578

    States v. Sandoval, 
    20 F.3d 134
    , 137 (5th Cir. 1994).   Nor has
    Humphrey shown that his Sixth Amendment right to confront the
    Government’s witnesses was violated.   See United States v. Pace,
    
    10 F.3d 1106
    , 1113 (5th Cir. 1993), cert. denied, 
    114 S. Ct. 2180
    (1994).
    AFFIRMED.
