PER CURIAM.
Order modified to award claimant 64 degrees for 20 percent unscheduled permanent partial disability.

He seeks reinstatement of the referee's assessment of 40 percent. On de novo review, we assess the extent of claimant's disability at 20 percent. See Hoag v. Duraflake, 37 Or. App. 103, 585 P.2d 1149, rev den 284 Or. 521 (1978).
The order of the Workers' Compensation Board is modified to award claimant 64 degrees for 20 percent unscheduled permanent partial disability.
