PER CURIAM: In this multiple-party action, appeal is taken from a judgment below adjudicating the claims of fewer than all of the parties plaintiff. No certificate under Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b) appears in the record, and the parties agree that none has issued. We therefore dismiss the appeal for want of jurisdiction. E. g., Foret v. McDermott, 484 F.2d 992 (5th Cir. 1973).
