Opinion
September 23, 1942.
Present — Hill, P.J., Crapser, Heffernan, Schenck and Foster, JJ.
The only question is whether the claimant's injury arose out of and in the course of his employment. The claimant worked for the employer as a mechanic. His hours were from 9:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. He was engaged in the repair of aircraft and aircraft engines and he worked in the machine shop and hangars. The employer was engaged in the business of teaching people how to fly aeroplanes and conducting a welding school. The only way to reach the employer's premises was by an independently owned automobile. While he was helping a student to start his car he was injured on the premises of the employer. It was customary for such assistance to be rendered. Award unanimously affirmed, with costs to the State Industrial Board.
