The petitioners were never appointed to the position of clerical assistant and, therefore, should not be designated as such. In the absence of a valid appointment from a proper list, the petitioners may not be designated as incumbents, even though they performed the duties of that position. (Wood v.

The order should be reversed, with twenty dollars costs and disbursements to the defendant, and the petition dismissed.

Present — O’Malley, Townley, Untermybr, Dore and Cohn, JJ.
