CONNECTICUT FANS STRONG FOR MANN

New Haven. Conn, Feb. 23.-(UP. Usually staid Connecticut residents were excited today as ring-time neared for the heavyweight cham pionship battle between Champion Joe Louis and Nathan Mann, youth ful Hamden slugger ard the states first challenger for the title ill his tory.
 Between 5000 and 1000 Nutmeg state fans were expected to leave Hartford and New Haven late to- day in special trains to witness the Madison Square Garden bout.
 Special excursion rates were in effect.
 Gov. Wilbur L. Cross may be at the ring-side.
 Manns four brothers will be at the fight but his parents and three sisters will listen to the radio broad cast. His mother, Mrs. Frank Men chetti, usually gets jittery while lis tening to broadcaSts of her sons fights and often leaves the house.
 Once, one of her sons said. she took candle and secluded herself in the chicken coop O. her farm.
 Connecticut fans were almost unanimous in picking Mann to win.
 They banked on Mann's ability to get to Louis with either hand be- fore the brown bomber could get started.

BOSTON BRUINS
 ALMOST SURE OF HOCKEY GROWN
Rangers Lost Third Game in a Week Last Night;
 Have 10 Games to GO
BY ROBERT WEBB

Limited Press Staff Correspondent
 Boston, Feb. 23-(UP)-The Bos- ton Bruins dressing room, which re- echoed with the shouts of happy hockey players following the Bruins 3-2 decision over the New York Rangers Sunday evening, was again the scene of a victory celebration last night.
 The Bruins, 20 winners over the Toronto Maple Leafs, knew they had lost no ground to the second-place New York Rangers. But not until word came to the dressing room that the Rangers had been defeat ed by the Canadiens did the Bruins realize they had taken another irn- portant step toward their first American division championship since 1885.
 Safe Lead
 Today the Bruins stand four and one-half games ahead of the Rang CTS. The Rangers have ten games left to play, one more than the Bruins, but it is almost unbelievable that the New Workers can close enough ground to win the American division title with Boston playing its best hockey of the season.
 It was only a week ago last eve ming that the Bruins led the Rang CTS by single point. Since that time the New Workers have lost three games. two to the Bruins, while the Bruins have beaten the Maroons, the Rangers twice, and Toronto. Last nights victory was the seventh in a row for the Bruins in row for the Bruins in IT days, Boston has only one more game this week, against the Canadiens in Montreal tomorrow night.
 T was afraid we might let up a little tonight" said Dit Clapper, the Burly Boston defenSeman after the game. "The younger players on the team are sometimes inclined to coast when they know they're up against a. fairly easy team"
 Although the Bruins outplayed the Leafs all the way, Tiny Thomp- son made more stops than Turk Broda in the Toronto cage. The Boston netminder, who is only one goal behind Dave Kerr in the race for the Georges Vezina trophy, kicked out 24 shots while Broda saved on 21.
 Nice Work
 After a fast opening period mark ed by a great deal of rough stuff and only one penalty, Boston won the game in less than two minutes Cooney Weiland tallied the first goal at $50, skating in from the left side and poking the puck past Broda who seemed bit bewildered that Cooney did not shoot until he was within a few feet of the cage.
 Eddie Shore made a nice play that led to the second goal. although he didn't receive an assist. His pass gave Cowley a jump with only the Toronto defense to beat. Bill dribbled through the two defenders, drew Broda out and snapped the puck high into the far corner to settle the issue at 1:36.
 Toronto is playing a far differ ent game than earlier in the season when four and sometimes five oi the Maple Leafs would whip up the ice. We didn't mind the other team getting five goals as long as we got six," said Manager Connie Smythe. But now Toronto is play ing more conservatively although the Leafs still rank as the most dangerous of the Canadian teams.

"HOW'S TRICKS" QUESTION JUST
 WHAT II MEANS
There Are Various Kinds of Widows, But Now There
 Is the Latest
By ROBBIN COONS


 HOLLYWOOD, Aug. 26.-You've heard about Golf Widows and Bridge Widowers. Meet the Magic Widows.
 They abound in Hollywood. Each is the victim of circumstances. She married a man who means some thing definite when he says "How's tricks?" He means just that: how's tricks? He means have you any new mysteries, any new gadgets, any new legerdemain in stock? 1 It was Chester Morris who told me about this hapless sisterhood. He told me about it between tricks out at his Beverly Hills shanty, beside the swimming pool. i It seems Chester's missus is one of the foremost sufferers. She bears up patiently, however. Probably be- cause she knew, when she married Chester, that he was nuts about Magic. He has been, ever since he was IA.
 l The magicians of Hollywood meet regularly. One organization - Los Magicos includes in it's select membership such movie names as Harold Lloyd, Bert Kalmar, the lson-writer Max Terhune and Mor- ris, besides a number of doctors, lawyers and professional magicians. Magic is not a vice peculiar to movie actors.
 1 Well, the magicians have meet ! ings and their wives go along. There ] is program of magic, but it doesn't end there. The meeting place becomes a bedlam of tricks.
 It must be fun for the wives. As ! Sue Morris said to Chet: T don't mind watching the tricks, dear, but when you all start talking about Bridge Loads and Gimmicks and Threads it drives me crazy!" Chose are terms of the trade)
 1 And Mildred Lloyd. Chet suspects, ] is another victim. But Harold" he says generously, is not as annoying as I am He goes in for mental ef- { fects " a mind-reaching stunt he's been developing for three years. This is much less wearing on the household than my specialties. The Morrises," he chuckled, "are a house divided. Our Cynthia-she's 7--loves magic, already has mastered some tricks. Our boy Brook-he's g. hates it."
 And Chet can't see much hope for the Magic Widows. They can't even take up Magic in self-defense. They can never get revenge in kind. "The male of the species, "' said Chet, is more deadly in Magic than the female. Women have no gift for it."
 Like all deyotees, Chet keeps up
