Head Matter:
In the Matter of the Claim of Herbert H. Dewey, Respondent, against Rural Publishing Co., Inc., et al., Appellants. State Industrial Board, Respondent.

Opinion:
The alleged employer and its insurance carrier had appealed from an award of compensation in claimant's favor. The sole issue is whether or not claimant was an employee or an independent contractor. The State Industrial Board found that he was an employee. The evidence sustains the findings. Award affirmed, with costs to the State Industrial Board. All concur. [See post, p. 912.]
