For the most part all errors are assigned to the admission of evidence. There were no objections made to such evidence and in the absence of an objection at the time the evidence was offered a new trial will not be awarded even though the evidence be incompetent. State v. Ball, 277 N.C. 714, 178 S.E. 2d 377 (1970).\nThe record reveals that the defendant, if properly in the Superior Court, had a fair trial, free of any prejudicial error.\nAppeal dismissed.\nJudges Britt and Graham concur.",
