 SEEM SURE SHOT FOR STANLEY CUP
Start of Possible IA Game PlayOff Series on
 Tonight
BY TOM NOONAN United Press Stan Correspondent)

(Onnteu ErcSb Stuu NVTEVSpVtuVHD
 Boston, March 20. tUP) - The record smashing Boston Bruins, fresh from one of the greatest sea- sons in National Hockey League his tory, clash With the confident but crippled Toronto Maple Leafs at Boston Garden tonight in the open CT of the best-of-seven Stanley Cup series playoff.
 Beaten only once in their g starts the bruising Bruins rule favorites to eliminate the Leafs and regain the battered trophy after a one- year lapse by defeating the lower- bracket victor in another seven- game series.
 Big Edge
 The Bruins, first team ever to win the league title three consecutive years, will be at full strength for the initial test and will have the added advan.a age of playing the first two game on home ice. The second pair of games will be contested at Toronto. If other games are re- luuCu, uiey WaAL LS oSs-o-A hAtSA nately at Boston and Toronto.
 Brimming with confidence from Manager Art Ross, who terms the ,eam the best ever have seen," down to the 18th player, the Bruins hope to terminate definitely the jinx that has brought victory to sup. posedly.inferior Torinto clubs in four of five playofI series during the past decade.
 An overflow crowd of le,000 will match the Bruins and the Leafs, who paced the league most of the campaign but finally slipped to sec- ond in the face of oBston's blister- ing drive, start their struggle for the trophy which Lord Stanley do- mated in 1893.
 When the Leafs skate slowly on to the ice for pre-game practice at the Garden, dressed up with 0 new $25 ,000 scoring clock, they will bo without their ace center. Syl Apps, sidelined in Toronto with a leg in- jury. Apps may be ready for service when the teams travel to Toronto after Saturday nights game.
 Good Reserves
 Defenseman Bingo Kampman and winger Hank Goldup, recovering from injuries, were to arrive today with Manager Connie Smythe, but both were regarded doubtful start CTS In the first contest With q wealth of capable reserves, Toronto, how. ever will dress full squad of IS.
 The Bruins, who created a new league record by playing g games without defeat until blanked by the New York Rangers. former holders of the mark, will get at least $i200 per man If they trip Toronto. They already have earned IS per cent of a minimum player pool of $60,000 by winning the league title, and tri- umph over the Leafs would give them an additional Il l-2 per cent cut. The Leafs received Il per cent for finishing second.
 HigheSt-scorinR team In the league with l68 goals, the Bruins will have an offensive bulge on the Leafs who were second in this department with i45 tallic" The Leafs, however, only allowed m goals to l02 for Boston on defen :. Most dangerous scoring threat probably will be Bill Cowley. Boston center, who set a new record of 45 assists and modern mark of 62 totals points.
