Opinion
Order affirmed, with costs to the Workmen’s Compensation Board, on the opinion at the Appellate Division.
Concur: Chief Judge Fuld and Judges Burke, Breitel, Gabrielli, Jones and Wachtler. Judge Jasen dissents and votes to reverse in the following memorandum: I would reverse the order of the Appellate Division and dismiss the claim on the ground that the record does not support a finding of ‘‘ suddenness of causation ” or ‘‘ suddenness of result ”, an essential element of a compensable industrial accident.
