STATEMENT
 OF CLAIM: Claim of the System Committee of the Brotherhood that:
 (1) The Carrier violated the Agreement by assigning to the Lamp
 Tender at Jefferson City, Missouri, the oiling of switches,
 which work is that of a Section Laborer, on or about March 19,
 1958.
 (2) Section Laborer Hubert Schmitz be now compensated a day's pay
 of eight hours at his pro-rata rate for October 29, November 5,
 November 19, November 26, December 3, December 10, and December
 17, 1958, and any subsequent dates that the Lamp Tender oiled
 the switches as referred to in Part 1 of this claim.
 FINDINGS: In this case the lamp tender at Jefferson City was assigned some
 work of oiling switches to fill out his time, which amounts to no
 more than 6 hours per week. The Lamp Tender position is simply a higher ranking
 section laborer job and we find no provision of the agreement that would restrict
 the assignment to him of some small amount of section laborer duties to fill out
 his time.

 AWARD: Claim denied.
