1Opinion of the Court

ROBERTSON, Justice.

This is an appeal from a summary judgment for an insurance carrier in a workman’s compensation proceeding. Texas Employers’ Insurance Association sued to set aside an award of the Industrial Accident Board in favor of Franklin Belknap. Belknap answered and filed a cross-action for workman’s compensation based upon repetitious trauma. The insurance company moved for summary judgment, contending that Belknap failed to give timely notice of injury. The trial court granted the motion and denied all relief claimed by Belknap. We reverse and remand the case for trial.
