Appeal from a decision and award of the Workmen’s Compensation Board. Claimant was employed as a plasterer by Vitale Plastering Corp., which had a contract with appellant Wakefield Realty Corp. The board could find on this record that as a result of a dispute between Wakefield and Vitale the latter’s job was discontinued on September 4, 1956; that Wake-field itself took over the work; and that claimant became its employee and was its employee when he was injured September 14, 1956. Although Wakefield argues on appeal that claimant continued as Vitale’s employee, and there is some evidence tending to support this, there is substantial evidence the other way to sustain the board’s finding; but in any event Wakefield has not taken a timely appeal on this question.
