 Hartford, Conn.,, Aug. 19.-(UP) The defense charged in it's sum- maJion today that mot a breath of evidence" existed to chow that the Kev. Kurt E. B. Molzahn, Phila- delphia Lutheran minister collect ed or transmitted American mili- tary secrets to the Axis nations, and that the governments case was mostly "just trimmings.
 Defense counsel, opening the sum- nation, declared "so much of this case is just trimming, like butcher who cuts away this and that. So much trimming needs to be cut away so you can know the real problem"
 Coleman said the governments case was confined principally to charges the pastor used the parish house of old Zion Lutheran church at Philadelphia as the return ad- dress for mail of Gerhard Wilhelm Kunze, German-American Bund leader, and that in 1941 he made arrangements for Kunze to meet an- other defendant, pr. Wolfgang Ebell, at Fl Paso, Tex.
 "Those are the two charges" he said. "The rest is ginger bread, atmosphere, stage dressing. There is not breath of evidence that MT. Molzahn attempted to collect that information"
 Coleman urged the jury of eight men and four women mot to be influenced by loud charges that Pastor Molzahn is the head of the

 PLANS TO RETIRE
Private William F. Gr0uden of Fire Alarm Bureau
 to Quit Service

One of Waterbury's oldest fire men in point of service, Private William F. Grouder of the fire alarm bureau, is planning to make applic tion for retirement with pen sion, reliable but unofficial source reported today.

 The board is expected to approve a chang, in specifications of the ne7 750 bumper on order from the Peter Pirsch Company in order to obtain delivery by January l, l945.

 of Waterbury Bar
MEMBER OF WELL
 KNOWN FAMILY HERE
Father, Peter, Deceased, One of First Italians in
 New Haven County

Attorney Frederick c. Bauby, 63, former Waterbury tax collector and prominent member of the Waterbury Bar Association, died today at 11:45 a. m. at his home, 29 EngleWood avenue. His death marked the end of a valiant but losing struggle to recover from a serious heart attack which prostrat- ed him at his office the af- ternoon of August 4.
 Known to legion of friends as Fred, MT. Bauby maintained hlS law offices at AZ Bank street over a period of many years and was a familiar figure in the local courts.
 Fellow members of the bar asso- citation were shocked to learn ot hls collapse two weeks ago for in the past he had always apparently been in the best of health.
 Born In 1878
 Attorney Bauby was born in this city December 8, 1878, the son of Peter and Rose (Musante) Bauby. His father was one of the first Italians to settle in New Haven county.
 He was educated in the local schools and while attending Water bury High school he achieved dis tinction as a member of the school football team. Down through the years he had maintained an ardent interest in sports, particularly foot ball, golf and horse racing.
 MT. Bauby obtained his IL. B degree at Yale university in 1907 and was admitted to the Connec- ticut bar in the same year, there upon entering into the practice ot law with his brother, the late Charles Bauby.
 He served as tax collector here from 1918 and 1921.
 On May 12, 1924 he married Miss Mildred Madison of Waterbury. He was one of the founders of the Mattatuck Country Club and also ] (Continued on Page A

The American Rangers particl- pating in today's raid on the French coast were named for Rogers Rang CTS of the French-Indian War, the CommandoS of their day.
 The doughty Robert Rogers who organized and led them seemed not to care on which side he fought so long as he was in fight. During the American Revolution he offered his services to the Americans but was turned down coldly on suspicion of being a British spy and subse- quently organized and led the Queen's Rangers, who fought on the side of the British.

Wounded survivors said the night attack in the South Atlantic was launched simultaneously from three sides on a calm sea. The 9OO0-ton, raider hurled 60 rounds of heavy shells in salvos of six from hidden gun turrets as the twin torpedo boats slipped in to unleash four torpedoes and pepper the medium-sized ship with tracer machine gun bullets.
 In addition to the 15 or 16 believed killed, 19 or 20 were taken aboard the raider and II were rescued by a United Nations Merchantmen at- ter sailing 450 miles i'll five days i'll 8 lifeboat.
 The stricken merchantmen went to the bottom less than half hour after the attack.
 All the survivors were wounded, and one suffered serious other in- luries. He was Jennings Bonnet of Chehalis, Wash, one of the Navy's yeven-man gun crew aboard the vessel, who had half knee blown tway and also lost part of finger.
 Bonnet's injured finger was am putated by crew man of the res que ship. The emergency surgeon
