OPINION OF THE COURT

PER CURIAM:

1

On a previous appeal this court granted plaintiff a new trial on her claim on a policy of insurance on the life of her deceased husband. Ostrov v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co., 379 F.2d 829 (3d Cir. 1967). At the new trial the jury again determined that the insured intentionally gave materially false answers on his application for insurance. Plaintiff appeals the judgment based on such determination. We have reviewed the numerous assignments of error and find no basis for a reversal.

2

The judgment of the district court will be affirmed.
