Mann, Gainer On Edge For Thursday Go

New York, Jan. 31-Nathan Mann, tho Hamden heavyweight who fought Joe Louis for the title last year, wound up his training today for a ten round bout with his New Haven rival, Al Gamer, on Thurs day night. Mann went four furious rounds with Irish Mickey Dugan and Sandy Mcdonald in Stillman's gym.
 "Natie is in great shape" Ray Arcel, his trainer reported. Hes in an ugly frame of mind that goes with being down fine. This means as much to him as his crack at the title last year and Nate is in the right mood for 1t. He'll be shooting for a knockout from the opening bell"
 lAarty Krompier, Mann's man. ags?, stated htat he will keep Mann in New York until the day of the fight. They will depart for the Elm City on Thursday morning, arriv- ing there about noon for the weigh ing-in ceremonies.
 afann weighed in at 192 after the workout, indicating that he will have @ pull in the weights of nearly 20 pounds over city rival.
 Holding Weight
 New Haven, Jan. 31--Al Gainer, ths Black Panther with the lethal left hand, waltzed through three rounds with King Richards at the Elm City Gym today in his final workout for Thursdays battle with Matte Mann, youthful Hamden heavyweight.
 Gamer who put most of his heavy work under his belt last week. for- sock the road since Sunday in an effort to conserve weight and hopes to enter the ring between i72 and 175 pounds. After belting Johnny Durate, Providence heivyweight, out of the camp, Gamer worked with Richards, e heavyweight with a right hand similar to Mann z. since Saturday.
 Throughout his entire siege of training, Gainer has been concen- trating on ripping body smashes with which he hopes to halt Nann's rushes and slow down the IIamden- ite to a snail's pace.
 "Gainer isn't afraid of Mann or his right hand, "zip Mele. his man. ager said. Al has had enough ex- perience against fighters of Manns type to know what to do when he gets in there with them. If Mann rushes, he'll cut him down. If he doesn't. then Gainer will murder him with that left"

 to Officials

Taunton, Mass, Jan. 3i-(UP)-- Superior Judge James 0. Donnelly, presiding at the second bribery trial of Mayor Leo Y. J. Carney of New Bedford, turned over to postal au- thorities today c "crank" letter Lc- cusing him of encouraging crime"
 Mayor Carney has boaSted that he would get away with it," tho let- ter read. And if you as judge keep ruling out evidence against him. you will get tho jury to do as you asked --acquit man, c man who is c menace to any city in our great country"
 Written in blue ink on white pa- per, the note was signed Justice. A good United States Citizen" It be- gan:
 Encouraging Crime
 Prom what read in the paper l sec that the man who should stand for justice, law and order, I mean you, is encouraging crime by asking the jury to acquit Mayor Carney Everybody knows he asked for the bribe, but according to law he iS moi guilty until 50 proven. The law also states that you must not kill or steal, but ifJyou have enough money you can try 1t. You sec, it is easy to buy of tho judge and jury. It looks to me as if this Is what had hap- pened in this case"
 Dated Jan. 27, the letter was mailed to the judge in an envelope postmarked New Bedford Jan. 26."
 Disclosure of tho letters contents occurred while Judge Donnelly pre- pared to give tho case to the blue ribbon, impoinded jury today. Car ney was accused of soliciting bribeS in exchange for award of c city garbage collection equipment con- tract.
