Return GO Billed for New Haven Friday Night;
 Etters vs. Bumb0

New Haven, March 9-A bout that has been hanging fire since away back in September of last year, 8 return match between Irish Mickey Donohue, of Stamford, and Dick Turcotte, Waterbury sounthpaw lightweight, will head of the anna. teur fight card at the Arena here on Friday night.
 Turcottc, who has been hailed as on a par with Julie Kogan, New Ha- ven sensation in thefisticuR game in Connecticut, met up with Donohue last September and when the firing was done Donohue was the rightful winner. But the third man in the ring ruled the bout 8 draw and thus prevented Donohue from being the first boy to defeat Turcotte.
 During the past month Donohue has been hurling challenges at Tur- cote and Kogan, finally getting the return match with the Waterbury portsider.
 Another return match will be close to the top of the card of 12 bouts. a contest between Young Bumbo, of New Haven, and Emil Etters, Waterbury middleweight.
 Tn 8 circumstance similar to the Donohue- -Turcotte affair Bumbo was given 8 draw with Etters although edge seemed to be with the Water bury Italian.
 Matchmaker Dick Gray plans to have an opponent signed today to meet J. Kogan in the feature bout.

HOWE MORENz DIES SUDDENLY
 AS HEART STOPS
Great Canadien Hockey Star Collapsed in Hos-
 pital Bed

Montreal, March 9.-(UP)--(UP) A heart attack was blamed today for the death of Howard "Howie" Morenz, veteran star of Les >Can- adiens hockey club and one of pro- fessional hockey's most colorful players.
 He died last night in St. Luke's hospital where he had been recov- ering from double leg fracture suffered in a game with the Chi- cago Blackhawks January 2S. Doc- tors said he had suffered a nerv- ous breakdown a week ago and that worry about his future prob- ably contributed considerably to his death.
 Last night, however, he was sit- ting up in bed and talking to a visitor when he suddenly was seized with Q heart attack. He died almost immediately.
 Morenz's leg was shattered in two places when he crashed into the sideboards after colliding with Earl Sicbert, Chicago defense star. Some observers had expressed the belief that he might resume playing when the leg healed, but most said the veteran never would skate again.
 Morenz was born in Mitchell, Ont, 35 years ago. He played hockey as an amateur in Stratford, Ont, and there attracted the at- tention of Les Canadiens scouts. He turned professional and was an in1- mediate success.

 PINMEN COMPETE FOR S145,OOO
Great A. B. C. Event to Be Started By Mayor F. A.
 La Guardia
By LESLIE AVERY

United Press Stan CorrespondentD
 New York, March 9-(UP)-A heavy mineralite ball rolling into ten hard maple pins on one of the new alleys in the 2l2th coast artil- lery armory tomorrow night will signal the opening of the thirty seventh annual American bowling congress-richest and largest tour nament of its kind in history.
 For 17 hours Q day-e a. m. to ? a. m.-for 54 days the pins will be under bombardment witE more thar1 peting for $l45,000 in prizes on 20 10000 bowlers from 3l states com alleys.
 Tn A. B. c. competition there are two flights of keglers-the cham pionship division and the booster division. The booster teams are usually sponsore dby manufac- turing or merchandising firm for publicity and are just as eligible but not as likely, to win titles and prizes as the championship flight.
 Schedule
 There are four events-five man teams. pairs, singles and all-events. In the first, each of the five team members bowl three games, and the aggregate total comprises its score. The process is the same in the pairs and singles. A contestants al- events score is the total of his nine games rolled in the three pre- yious competitions. After an entrant rolls in the flve-ma1, pairs and sin- gles, he goes home and waits to see how his scores stand up under the subsequent barrage. Thus 1t is possible for team bowling on the first day to walk of with the cham pionship, but it will not be 8 cer- tainty until the last day of the tour ney.
 This is New York's first A. B. c. and according to its publicist, Fran cis Albertani, everything about 1t calls for a Superlativc. The record number of entries deposited $2l7,000 in entry fees. topping the previous high by $55,000. The $l45,000 in prizes is $37,000 more than at In- dianapolis last year. There arc 4,0i7 five-man teams entered; $500 pairs; and ll,750 individuals.
 Best by Test
 Champions riSking their titles are:
 Five man--Hi Bru (Ray Robert son, Carl Hardin, Fred Mounts, Charley Gray and Joe Fulton) of Indianapolis.
 Pairs-Tony Stamina and Mike Straka of Chicago.
 Singles-C Charles Warren, Spring field, o.
 All events-John Murphy, Indian apolis.
 Approximately $50 bowlers will have to roll each day to complete the tourney by May 4 as scheduled. Promoter Al Latin. scheduled as the next A. B. c. president, will give the signal tomorrow for Mayor Fiorello LaGuardia to send the first 16- pound balA crashing into the pins.
