   [1] Frank Aaron, Jr., a reserve sergeant with the Killeen Police Department, testified that on the date of the offense he was on duty in civilian clothes in the downtown Killeen area. At approximately 10:45 p.m. on November 1, 1975, he was standing in front of the Fogle Auto Supply Store when he was approached by the appellant. She initially asked him if he were a "narc," which he denied. She then asked, "Are you ready?" He responded, "Ready for what?" At this point, according to Aaron, the appellant was about two or three feet from him and she made "a driving motion with her body, with her shoulders, hips, and legs." He said he could "dig it" and asked what it was going to cost since he understood her motions to mean that she was offering to have sexual intercourse with him. She then asked him how much money he had and he told her that he could spend $20. She said, "That would get it." They then agreed to meet at a place she had nearby. The appellant left and Aaron was signaled by some officers who had him under observation to remain where he was. Aaron additionally testified without objection that the offense occurred on a military payday weekend and that there was a high incidence of prostitution activity at that time in Killeen.
   
   On cross-examination, Aaron testified that prior to the night of the alleged offense he did not recall having seen the appellant's picture among those of known prostitutes that were kept by the Killeen Police Department.
   
   Officer Reed of the Killeen Police Department testified that on November 1, 1975, he observed a conversation between Frank Aaron and the appellant. Reed stated that after he received a signal from Aaron, he identified the female that he had been talking to as the appellant. He testified that he was familiar with the appellant prior to November 1, 1975, and that his organization had a file on her at that time.
   
   The appellant testified in her own behalf and stated that on the night in question she was simply out walking around the block and had asked Aaron for a light. She said that after they got talking, Aaron propositioned her. She testified: "He then asked me if I was working, and I asked him what did he mean by working, and he said, do you walk the block?
