HALL, Justice:

Paul Lipman, husband of petitioner, died May 23, 1977, as a result of an acute myocardial infarction while on duty as the control room sergeant at the Utah State Prison. The Industrial Commission denied benefits to the petitioner because it found that her husband did not die as a result of an accident arising out of or in the course of his employment.1 This matter was then brought before this Court for review.
