Opinion

Per Curiam.

The defendant pled guilty to a charge of aiding a prisoner to escape, MCLA 750-.183; MSA 28.380. After the plea was accepted the prosecutor filed a supplemental information, pursuant to MCLA 769.13; MSA 28.1085, charging the defendant as a second offender. The defendant again pled guilty and a sentence of 7 to 10-1/2 years was imposed. Defendant now appeals and we affirm.

The defendant contends that the trial court erred in considering his juvenile record in sentencing. This was not error. People v Coleman, 19 Mich App 250 (1969); People v Charles Williams, 19 Mich App 544 (1969).

The defendant contends that reversal is required because he was not informed of his privilege against self-incrimination, his right to confront his accusers, and the right to a nonjury trial. No error occurred, People v Jaworski, 25 Mich App 540 (1970).

Defendant contends that he was misled regarding the possible sentence. The record is inadequate for appellate determination of this question. Matters of this type should he first raised in the trial court where an evidentiary hearing can he held.

Affirmed.
