Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

George H. Thomason, Spartanburg, S. C. (Thomason & French, Spartanburg, S. C., on brief), for appellant.

Holly A. Grimes, Asst. Regional Atty., Dept. of Health and Human Services, Atlanta, Ga. (Thomas E. Lydon, Jr., U. S. Atty., Columbia, S. C., Carl H. Harper, Regional Atty., Dept. of Health and Human Services, Atlanta, Ga., on brief), for appellee.

Before RUSSELL, HALL, and MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judges.


MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judge:

Once again we confront the reality that the scope of our review of a decision of the Secretary of Health and Human Services holding an applicant for social security benefits not to have qualified is extremely limited. If there is substantial evidence to support the decision, it is our duty to affirm without regard to what result we would have preferred to reach ourselves, were we dealing with the issue afresh. 42 U.S.C. § 405(g).
