Make Few Appeals From Assessment Wednesday, November 6, is the last day on which appeals may be made to the Court of Revision against the 1946 assessments, ac- cording to the notices sent to all ratepayers and tenants, 80 far there have been very few notifications of appeals made tp the Town Hall, which might seem strange in view of what Deputy- reeve Andrew Muir described at Friday's Council meeting as a whis. pering campaign for a higher as- sessment of the business section of the town. According to the assessment laws any ratepayer can appeal to the Court of Revision against the as- sessment made on his own or any Other y in the town, wheth« it too high or too low. In view of this "whispering cam- paign" it will be interesting to see whether any appeals are launched against 'the assessment of the town's business section. Details of the as. sessment on all property in the town are available at the Town of- 4 i C Pl 3 PHONE 24 | > al NOW PLAYING Important Notice Two Shows at 6:00 and 9:00 p.m. FACE of a SIREN...HEART of a FIEND!

Costume Parade The judges appointed to make the decision were the following: Miss E. Lorimer, Miss L. Gillard, C. Sinclair and E, H. Graham, The Costume Parade began with the 'dest dressed girl." The judges seemed to have a bit of trouble making their decision and finally Organ Grinder Steals Show At High School Hallowe'en decided Daisy Stessor, dressed in a gypsy cocstume, deserved the prize. In the "best dressed boy" contest, Ron Curtis, dressed @s Lena the Hyena, won an award. Ina Law and Elva Williams, garb- ed as "Old Folks" were the winners in the "best couple" event. A triple prize was awarded to a family composed of Vera Packer, Anne Fleming and Betty Davis as the "funniest group." To top the costume parade off, a mystery man, donned in an organ- grinder's outfit, suddenly appeared, and walked off with an extra win- ning. He turned out to be Mr, A. Anderson. Altogether, the evening proved a very successful one. Evelyn Drewry Weds' Masson E.

The pitcher wound up with his back to the batter, whirled and rifled the ball overhand to the catcher who waited 45 feet away without shinguards, mask or padded mitt, his fingers protected only by a chunk of raw beewsteak, a strip of rubber or a flimsy cotton glove. Toronto newspapermen had a glimpse of those by-gone days when a group of men who wrote about sport and played in many of its divisions 40-odd years ago took part last night in a forum at the Tor- onto Men's Press Club. The old-timers recalled when news of sport, barely tolerated by space-conscious city editors, appear- ed as scattered items in four-page handset dallles or, at best, under single line headings of "baseball", "lacrosse", "cricket" or "bicycling." Veterans who participated in the forum were J. P, Fitzgerald, sports editor of the Toronto Evening Tele- gram; Charlie Good, Sr, one-time | sports writer for the Toronto Globe and the old Toronto World; W. A, Hewitt, secretary of the Ontario Hockey Association since 1003 and a sports writer until 15 years ago; and Clary Settell, radio sports com= mentator and formef Los Angeles sports writer, Mr, Fitzgerald sidestepped the [question of where hockey originated by pleading that as a director of hockey's Hall of Fame he was biased in favor of Kingston, Ont., but he recalled the game's beginnings in matches on frox:n creeks of "shinny on your own side." Twenty or 30 players on each side all took a crack at a lacrosse ball and tried to knock it into the opponents' goal, Ontario had about 40 organized hockey clubs ih 1803, Mr, Hewitt said, compared with between 200 and 300 at present, At first, seven-man teams with no substitutes played 30 minutes to a half.
