                          August 14, 1997
Before KING, HIGGINBOTHAM, and DUHÉ, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     James Stanley Luke appeals his conviction for retaliating

against a witness under 18 U.S.C. § 1513(b)(2), arguing that the

statute is vague.   Luke waived this challenge by not raising it

in the district court.   FED. R. CRIM. P. 12(b)(1), (2); (f); see

United States v. Chavez-Valencia, 116 F.3d 127, 130 (5th Cir.

1997) (failure to raise motion to suppress in the district court


     *
        Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 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that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent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 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.

waives appellate review).   Luke also contends that the district

court abused its discretion by ordering that he receive

substance-abuse testing and treatment while on supervised

release.   The district court did not plainly err by requiring

drug testing during Luke's period of supervised release.    See

United States v. Calverley, 37 F.3d 160, 162-64 (5th Cir. 1994)

(en banc).

     AFFIRMED.
