 FINDINGS: Along with two foremen as well as Supervisors
 Withers and Wilson, the 23 claimants and four other
 trackmen arrived at the work site on the morning
 of October 27, 1977 after first reporting to their
 headquarters.
 The record indicates that claimants refused to attend
 to their duties at the site, although requested to do so several
 times during the next few hours. They were allowed three hours for
 the day and now seek an additional five hours pay. The two foremen
 and four trackmen who performed their assigned work were compensated
 for the entire day.
 The evidence does not establish in sufficient detail
 that claimants were compelled to remain at the work site or that
 the weather conditions were so bad that they could not begin work.
 It is of interest that the two foremen and four trackmen were able
 to work at the site. Supervisors Withers and Wilson returned to
 the headquarters when claimants refused to work.
 The claim is not supported by competent proof.

 AWARD: Claim denied.
