The Raymond Hillies and Gents of the Hill, two preseason favorites in the Washington Park Community house league, will endeavor to win their opening second round league games tonight at the community house, the Hillies meeting the East End Robins in the opening game with hte Gents taking on the St., Ann cagers in the main attraction,
 The Hillies will be at full strength for tonight's encounter and should chalk up their seventh straight win of the season against the out east CTS. This game will get underway at 7:45 o'clock with Jim Tracy handling the whistle.
 The Gents winners of the first round will endeavor to keep their winning string intact with a triumph over the Frenchies in the second game. The St. Ann team were big disappointment in the first round but from reports around the hill the boys from the South End are going to cause a lot of trouble in the final round and are figuring that they will be the team to meet the Gents for the title.

The New York Rangers had bull warked their second place position In the National Hockey league to- day, but they were no nearer the leading Boston Bruins.
 The Rangers walloped the New York Americans TO last night tc move three points ahead Of their city rivals. Boston scored 2-l over Toronto to remain seven points out in front. Chicago defeated Mon- treal 4-2, to go into fifth place tie with the idle Detroit Red Wings

CARLO TO TAKE ON IRISHM AN;
 KOvACH TO SHOW
Waterbury A. C. Has Fine Pairings-Davis vs
 Leonard

Another pair of professional bouts and seven amateur glove duels have been lined up for presentation to- night ct Buckingham hall, which is sure to be filled to near capacity be- cause of the favorable impression made on the fans two weeks ago and also by the fact that two of the best and most popular fighters among Waterbury fandom, Dick Turcotte and Danny Houlihan of Newark, N. J., are on the card.
 Even yet. the boxing bugs who were talking over last nights Mann Gamer bout agreed that for real ring action Turcotte and Houlihan. who drew more than 10000 fans i'll three bouts last summer at Ram dolph- Cloves stadium gave more for the money in any one of their three three-round battles than Mann or Gainer have in their past two fights, including last nights 90 in New Ha- ven against each other.
 Ciarlo Gets Chance
 Dick and Danny will not have 1t out again, except against different opponents, and Houlihan, by the way, has e real job cut out for him in defeating Waterbury's Tommy Ciarlo, if he can. Tommy, who not only looks like Tony Canzoneri in his prime, but is built and fights like the great little New orleans Italian, insisted last summer that he could beat Houlihan, if given the chance. Perhaps he can, though he would not be favored to do SO, and tonight gets his big chance. 4 win over Houlihan would assure him a1- other star bout on the following show.
 Other Bouts
 Turcotte is up against an un- known quantity, one Joe Somers of Newark, a friend of Houlihan's and 8 former Golden Gloves ringster said to be particularly adept at handling southpaws. We shall see-- what we shall see.
 Henry Davis of New Britain and Jackie Leonard of Newark are P1hCQy Rklu tkAg A4GJAtbAo CAitAy bgt- ter be good. or else the clever Hard- ware City lad, and state bantam champ will give him 6 real over.

Reilly has not shown here before, but if he can't take punch" Kovach may be good for another K. o. Then there's Sam Craig, brother of Eddie Carr, north end Negro battler and choir singer who meets Up with Lei1ny verstok of Shelton. Craig has won IS bouts and has yet to be beaten. Joe Rossi of Naugatuck and Frankie (the genD Mars, ought to put on @ swingeroo of interest, while many other boys from Torrington, Bristol and New Haven will be seen in action, from 8:30 on.

MANN MARKS UP .CA|NER TO COP
 EASY VICTORY
Crowd of 6,5OO Pays $l2,- 800 to See New Haven
 "Natural"

New Haven, Conn, Feb. 3.--(UP) --The comeback campaign of Matte Mann, powerfully-built Hamden heavyweight, continued unchecked today. A fellow by the name of Al Gamer sought last night to place Q barrier in the way, but he was ur,. tremendously brushed aside.
 Mann, weighing 100, achieved Q one-sided victory over the New Ha- ven negro in e 10-round bout for which fans in this area had been clarnoring for two years. The clamor was silenced today, undoubtedly be- cause the fight was a dud.
 Gamer, l74, took only one round, according to the referees score- card. That was the first. During the last nine rounds. he back pedaled furiously, seeking to evade the charging attack carried on by Mann. By his aggressiveness and cleaner punching. Mann piled up e lead and eventually was given the victory.
 Got the Race"
 The crowd roared "boos" at Gamer when he left the ring, and gave the Hamden fighter round of applause. It was one of the larg- est fight crowds in years: $500 fans who paid $l2,500.
 There was only one knock-down in the whole encounter, and 1t was . double fall-down. That occurred in the eighth round when Mann connected solidly with a right to the head, dropping the negro to his knees. Mann, however, lost his bal. ance with the punch and fell over Gamer. Both arose quickly with- out @ referees count.
 George Fitch, 175, a Gamer stable- mate, knocked out Al Stepney, l67, White Plans, N. r., in the second round of scheduled six-round sefni-hnal bout.
