Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
Under instructions concededly "accurate as far as they go", the jury returned a general verdict in favor of Amoco Shipping Company. We have carefully considered Seaman Brown's other points of error — failure of the district judge to rule as a matter of law that the ship was unseaworthy, and to exonerate Brown of contributory fault, and the reception of demonstrative evidence, and conclude that the judgment below should be
Affirmed.
