Head Matter:
In the Matter of Barry M. McCoy, Respondent, v. Everett F. McNab et al., Constituting the Board of Elections of the County of Suffolk, Appellants, and Dolores Fletcher, Respondent.
Argued June 15, 1970;

George W. Percy, Jr., County Attorney (Donald A. Rettaliata and Stanley S. Corwin of counsel), for appellants.
Barry M. McCoy, respondent in person.

Opinion:
Order affirmed, without costs. When the subscribing witness correctly stated his unchanged residence, but inadvertently referred to its old election district prior to recent redistricting, there was substantial compliance with the statute. No opinion.
