    PER CURIAM.
   PER CURIAM.

This is a contest between the parents for the custody of their five-year-old daughter. In our de novo review of the record we conclude that the trial judge, who had the advantage of seeing and hearing the witnesses, was correct in concluding that the child’s best interests would be served by awarding custody to the father. See Tingen v. Tingen, 251 Or 458, 459, 446 P2d 185 (1968).

Affirmed.
