p. 862
In the Matter of the Claim of Sidney Berman, Respondent, against Cornelia Cab Company, Inc., et al., Appellants. Workmen’s Compensation Board, Respondent.

Appeal by employer and its insurance carrier from an award in claimant’s favor. The sole question involved is whether or not claimant’s injuries resulted from his intoxication while operating a taxicab. The board found that the accidental injuries sustained by claimant did not result solely from his intoxication. The evidence supports the decision. Award affirmed, with costs to the Workmen’s Compensation Board. All concur.
