(October 8, 1952.)
    In the Matter of Walter Densmore, Respondent, against Walter W. Westall et al., Constituting the Board of Elections, Westchester County, Appellants.
   Order reversed on the law, without costs, and petition dismissed, without costs. It is conceded that notice of the party caucus, at which it is alleged that one William J. Murray was nominated, was not given as required by the provisions of section 146 of the Election Law. In our opinion, the provisions of that section with respect to notice are mandatory and may not be disregarded, and the purported nomination is consequently void. Holán, P. J., Johnston, Adel, Wenzel and Schmidt, JJ., concur.
