Before HAYNSWORTH, Chief Judge, and SOBELOFF and WINTER, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:


We agree with the District Judge that there is evidence in the record supporting the Secretary's finding that this claimant of social security benefits, while suffering some arthritic impairment of the spinal column, was not disabled from working in relatively light jobs of the kind which the claimant, at times had held in the past and which, in this instance, were generally available in the area where he lives.
