Cars Trapped Receives PICTON (CP)--Paul Payette, former member of the Belleville McFarlands world 'champion hockey team, said today income tax 'officials have presented him back taxes. Mr. Payette, who retired from the McFarlands last spring after three seasons and manages a shoe store here now, said the in- come tax department got in touch with him after a judicial inquiry into Belleville city's deficit started last month. Audits previously showed a city deficit of $250,000, part of which was attributed to the oper- ation of the hockey team. Mr. Payette said his trouble arose because the tax slip he re- ceived did not correspond with the actual amount he received from the club. His was an "hon- est error," he said. "I filed in accordance with PLAYERS' INCOMES TABBED FOR TAXES Belleville Star Bill Officials fold him his tax bl oud be between $1,700 and $2,» , depending on what fine was {imposed, Mr. Payeite said. | with a bill of about $2,000 for SAYS OTHERS TABBEL (The Toronto Star says other. players from the Belleville club were tabbed by the income de- partment for back taxes ranging from $20 to $3,300.

Payette said he does not think he should be responsible for the extra tax bil "I filed correctly according te the slip I got," he said.

"ANTIPATHY, NO § UPPORT' CCF Member Raps New Party Idea HAMILTON (CP) -- Delegates he said at the Ontario CCF convention were told yesterday that plans for a new labor party in Canada could be a death blow to the movement. Douglas Fisher, CCF member of Parliament for Port Arthur, warned that "'there have been no indications of the proposed new party getting labor support." "There is antipathy among the general membership of the trade unions." Mr. Fisher, 40-year-old, teacher who hit the headlines when he defeated former Liberal Trade Minister Howe in the 1957 eloc- tion, said he had been instructed by his constituency association political group in Canada guar- anteeing the rights of the Cana- dian worker.

D'Amato is the manager of Patterson, former heavyweight champion. Rosensohn promoted the June 26 Patterson-I Johansson bout in which Patterson lost his title. The commission also said that Charles Antonucci, known in boxing circles as Charley Black, is forbidden to participate in the promotion of any professional boxing bout or to attend any event under the jurisdiction of the commission.
