 Father McGivney organized what he then thought was going to be merely society for the men of the parish. So excellent were his ideas as exemplified in the organi- zation, that it began rapidly to spread, until today the Knights of Columbus are active not only in this country but in many parts of the world. During the last war they made an enviable record for their service to the American forces. In Rome they have done work which has won high praise of Popes.
 Father McGivney was succeeded as supreme chaplain by two of his brothers, the late Monsignor Patrick J. McGivney and the late Monsignor John McGivney. Monsignor Finn, nephew of these three priestly brothers so intimately connected with the origin and growth of the Knights of Columbus, now holds the office which they had in turn.
 As supreme chaplain, MonSignor Finn has been very active in Knights of Columbus work. He is known to officials and councils throughout the country and has been prominent at conventions and other gatherings of the order.
 His elevation to the rank of Domestic Prelate comes as the Knights of Columbus is celebrat- ing the Sixtieth anniversary of its foundation.
 Monsignor Finn is one of three priest-brothers as were the McGiv- neys. They are the Rev. Francis J. Finn of Plainville and the Rev. Vim cent Finn of Sharon.
 All three are graduates of Holy Cross College and in addition two other brothers, former Judge Ed ward J. Finn and Dr. Alfred Finn, both of this city, graduated from the. Worcester institution.
 During his pastorate at St. Mary Magdalen church in Oakville he served as chaplain of Sheridan Council, "A, Knights of Columbus, of this city. He had previously held similar office in McGivney Council, Danbury, during his lengthy curacy in that city. Although now in Bridgeport he still maintains his membership in Sheridan Council.
 Although extremely busy with par- ish work and his duties as supreme chaplain Monsignor Finn has been a regular attendant at local K. of C.. activities and annually joined local knights in conducting pilgrimage to the grave of the Monsignorii Mo- Givney at old St. Joseph's cemetery. He has also appeared here at numer- ous banquets conducted by the local council.

 Officers in the sheriff's bureau of investigation announced they would seek murder complaints today. Rogers said he would sign the con- lessons.
 His fathe rhad made him and his mother unhappy he said, and they had quarreled over property the son inherited from his mother.
 T went to the church and played hymns and some classical music" '" Rogers said. T can think better when I play like that - alone. l did it lot late at night. While I played I figured out how I could set the fire to the house with candles.

 "Dad was asleep when got back. He had been drinking quite heavily. got five candles and put one in the kitchen, two in the dining room and one in each bedroom. Then I put rags and papers around them so when they burned down it could burn all at once. I lighted them, turned on the gas jets and lef." Rogers stayed at hotel overnight and read of his fathers death the next morning.
 In verbal confession, Rogers said he had killed his mother because I had a bitter childhood, because l wanted to get here property but most of all because my mother .had an unhappy marriage and I wanted to put her out of physical pain" His written confession said he had poured chloroform on cotton held over the face of his sleeping mother.
 "She died so easily I felt better he said. "Then I left the soaked cotton by her mouth and set the bottle down on the side table after wiping my finger prints off the bottle"

 ABOUT SLAUGHTER

 Only 60,OOO Remain
 It was estimated that only 60,000 of the original 9600Q men of the 18th German army remained at Staraya Russa and the Soviets were said to be maintaining pressure and gradually annihilating the enemy"
 A unit of Stormovik dive -bombers raided an air field from which Ger man supply planes leave for Staraya Russa several times and destroyed 51 transport planes.
 Moscow reports said German de- fensive lines on the Leningrad front had been broken at two vital points. The Nazis have ben forced back be- hind their third line of defenses and now are building their fourth, they , said, in an effort to prevent the Russians from breaking Leningrad's $ encirclement. The Soviet air force reported a toll of 200 emmy planes in three days.
 In the Crimea, Berlin radio broad casts referred to the NaI defense front at Sevastopol and Kerch, ," which was interpreted as a German admission that the siege of the na- val base at Sevastopol had been broken and the Russian defenders had become attackers.
 The Soviet Army in the Crimea had been hammered in by strong German forces sicne last November 5 when the Nazis drove southward through the peninsula. The German refernce to defense positions" was taken as an indication that the Crimea tide had turned.

STRAND

Capacity attendance at Warmers Strand hteater yesterday marked the opening performance of the gangland thriller Johnny Eager" with Robert Taylor and Lana Turn CT in co-starring roles.
 Taylor for the first time plays q villanious role unrelieved by senti- ment or sentimentality, proves him. self dramatic star of the first rank. His role in Johnny Eager" is dis tant departure from anything he has ever done on the screen. He is shown as a flinty-eyed killer with but one redeeming quality, the final realization that in Lana Turner he has met the one great and exciting love of his life, love for which he lays down his life in a hail of gang land bullets.
 Miss Turner, as the debutante daughter of a district Attorney, reaches the peak of her young career as the girl who loves the gangster, and for whom he eventually per~ forms the only decent act of his life.
 Van Heflin establishes himself among the topflight actors of the screen with his characterization of a dissolute gangster attorney who has not yet entirely forgotten the beauty of ideals and the innate courage of humanity. 4
 The dependable Edward Arnold appears as Miss Turner's father. Henry O'Neill impersonates the trusting parole officer who believes in Johnny Eager, and an excellent supporting cast includes Robert Sterling, Patricia Dane, Glenda Far rell, Diana Lewis and Barry Nelson
 Co-featuring the program is "Sing For Your Supper", with Jinx FGlk- enburg and Charles Buddy Rogers in feature roles.
 Coming Sunday to the Strand is the thrill hit you've been waiting for ''The Corsician Brothers starring Douglas. Fairbanks, Jr., with large cast. On the same show is 'The Body Disappears" with Jeffrey Lynn and Jane Wyman in featured roles. Other attractions coming real soon to the Strand include the Academy Award winning picture How Green Was My Valley.
