One Case for Judge‘s Court of Revision Here John Carnovale Appezfiing Aâ€"gaihflst Assessment of New â€" House on Sixth Avenue. â€" Judge‘s Court of Revision to be Held Here on Jan. 29th. The 1935 assessment is now complete but the exact figures will not be availâ€" able until after Jan. 29th when Judge' J. B. T. Caron, of Cochrane, hears the appeal of John Carnovale against the assessment of his house at 6 1â€"2 Sixth avenue. Assessment Commissioner J. A. Beâ€" langer will in ‘the meantime begin work on the assessment for 1936. This particular division of the town‘s busiâ€" ness offices must always be a year in advance of the times in order to faciliâ€" tate the striking of tax rates. The Carnovale case was first heard at the court of revision on Monday, Dec. 26, when the assessment figure of $4,575 was appealed. At that time Mr. Carnovale complained that in compariâ€" son with other buildings in town his Mr. and Mrs. Chas.

They, like the Timmins club, cherish dreams of beating the apparâ€" ently unbeatable Porkies, and they‘re out to do it. There does not seem to be much doubt about the idea that if the Mariâ€" time league had not tried to wreck Western teams by bringing their playâ€" ers east the CAH.A. would have granted transfers to the McIntyre men who needed them. The Macs. are not the only team fcorced out of league hockey by the C. A. H. A.‘s refusal of transfers, The Maritime league went completely ‘bust‘ last week when the Halifax Wolverines were the only club left in the whole senior section of the association. The Maritimes‘ unsuccessful attempt to run a "commercial" league and the subseâ€" quent return to "amateur" hockey was no go. Now they‘re talking commercial league all over again without the Wolâ€" verines, who will probably be declared senior Maritime champs and th Allen Cup playdowns may be at Halifax. home had a much higher figure placed on it than there should be. ] | In making the assessment of brick veneer building so high, Mr. Carnovale claimed that the people of Timmins were not being encouraged in the buildâ€" ing of homes of a permanent and atâ€" tractive nature. The court of revision first thought that $4,200 would be A fairer figure. Carnovale threatenâ€" ed to take the action before the €nal court of appeal and the council comâ€" mittee decided to reduce the amount further to $4,000. My. Carnovale considers this still too high and has entered his appeal before Judge Caron.
