In the Matter of MIRIAM PESSEL, Respondent, v. R.H. MACY CO., INC. et al., Appellants. WORKMEN'S COMPENSATION BOARD, Respondent.

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. (See Matter of Greensmith v. Franklin Nat. Bank, 21 A.D.2d 576, affd. 16 N.Y.2d 973.)
