PER CURIAM.


This income tax deficiency case turns, for the most part, on credibility choices. A study of the record and the findings and opinion of the Tax Court1  leads us to the conclusion that there is substantial evidence to support the Tax Court's findings and we agree with its conclusions. We find no merit in petitioners' argument that they were deprived of a fair trial by the cumulative effect of alleged erroneous rulings, chiefly respecting the admission and exclusion of evidence by the trial court. The judgment of the Tax Court is

Affirmed.
