Opinion by

Judge Rogers,

David E. Baird filed an application for unemployment compensation benefits which was denied by the Bureau of Employment Security pursuant to Section 402(b)(1) of the Unemployment Compensation Law (Law),1 which renders persons who voluntarily quit their jobs ineligible for benefits. A referee affirmed the Bureau after a hearing at which Baird alone appeared and was the sole witness. Baird appealed the referee’s decision to the Unemployment Compensation Board of Review (Board) which, without taking additional testimony, reversed the referee and awarded benefits.
