Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit December 29, 1980, 78-3223 (Waverly Mineral Products Co. v. United Steelworkers of America, Afl-Cio, Local No. 8290)

THOMAS A. CLARK, Circuit Judge:

This is an appeal from an order of the district court vacating the award of an arbitrator under a collective bargaining agreement. The issue is whether the arbitrator exceeded the scope of his authority under the arbitration provisions of the agreement in making his award. Because the' district court erred in vacating the arbitrator’s award, we reverse.
