Appeal from the Supreme Court, Appellate Division, Third Department.

David Rosenberg and Abraham L. Doris for claimant, respondent. John J. Bennett, Jr., Attorney-General ( Joseph A. McLaughlin, Roy Wiedersum and Isaac Frank of counsel), for State Industrial Board, respondent.


Order affirmed, with costs; no opinion.

Concur: LOUGHRAN, FINCH, RIPPEY, LEWIS, CONWAY and DESMOND, JJ.; LEHMAN, Ch.
