GIVAN, J.
This case comes to our Court on a petition to transfer from the Appellate Court of Indiana. The Appellate Court decision was rendered June 23, 1969, and is reported in 248 N.E.2d 405.
This Court approves and adopts the decision reached in the Appellate Court with the exception of the statement contained therein charging the costs of the appeal to the appellants. The appellants in this cause are the State Board of Tax Commissioners and the Madison County Board of Review. Under the authority of State Board of Tax Commissioners v. Traylor (1967), 141 Ind. App. 324, 228 N.E.2d 46, 10 Ind. Dec. 676, the following statement was made:
We are in agreement with the above quotation and, therefore, modify the Appellate Court's decision by striking the last sentence assessing costs against the appellants.
Transfer is therefore granted for the limited purpose of modification of the Appellate Court's decision as above set out and the decision is so modified.
Hunter, C.J., Arterburn and Jackson, JJ., concur; DeBruler, J. votes to grant transfer and consider this case fully on its merits.
NOTE.  Reported in 258 N.E.2d 621.
