OPINION OF THE COURT

Order affirmed, with costs. On the record here, we cannot say that the determination of the State Liquor Authority, that public convenience and advantage would not be promoted by granting the appellant’s application, was arbitrary or capricious, much less irrational (see Matter of Mandee Liqs. v Roth, 57 AD2d 961 , affd 44 NY2d 653 ).

Concur: Chief Judge Cooke and Judges Jasen, Gabrielli, Jones, Wachtler, Fuchsberg and Meyer.
