Strange BIO_new(BIO_s_file()) behaviour

[Scratch]

In the 1st example everything is ok, fout points to BIO structure:

void main()
{
  BIO *fout;
  fout=BIO_new(BIO_s_file());
}

BUT if I'll put this code in a separate procedure fout points to nothing:

void Encrypt(unsigned char *pass, unsigned char *plaintext)
{
  BIO *fout;
  fout=BIO_new(BIO_s_file());
}

void main()
{
 Encrypt(foo,bar);
}

Am i missing smth?
