The game easily could develop
into a passing duel between Ber-

NELSON BEGINS TO
 CUT HIS STAFF
One Chief Didn't Like It and Says So in Some
 Hot Words

Washington, Aug. 20.-CUP)- War Production Board Chairman Donald M. Nelson, in the first w;de-scale housekeeping of his staff. shortly will discharge up to 10 of his 40-odd branch chiefs, it was learned today.
 He has decided upon the action to promote efficiency in the WIPE and to show that he can be tough when necessary for the good of the war effort, it was said.
 Indicative of Nelsons attitude since returning this week from va cation was the dismissal of Fred erick I. Libbey, $5,600-a-year en- gineering consultant, who discussed WIPE intra-office report with a newspaper reporter before it was written.
 Libbey issued a statement early today saying that any opinions he had expressed were based on the record.
 But if what I said has made MT. Nelson mad enough to clear out the GeadWood, my head is a cheap price to pay for it." he said. T would gladly give what little neck I have left to see the boss up to his knees in splinters and stil Swinging"
 It was understood that most of the branch chiefs slated for dismiss sal were in industry operations, where they would have influential posts in connection with the con- version of civilian industries to war production. Some of the branch chiefs are $1-a-year men, group which has been under considerable fire from the Senate committee 1n- vestigating the war effort and other critics of the WIPE.

JUDGE GAFFNEY
 PAYS TRIBUTE
Passing of Attorney Fred erick C. Bauby Occa-
 stoned Court EuIOgy

High tribute to the late Attorney Frederick C. Bauby was paid in mu- nieipal court today by Judge oJhn L. Gaffney in an announcement that Saturdays session of court will be recessed to permit officials and attorneys to attend the funeral services.
 Funeral arrangements for the popular attorney who died yesterday as result of a heart attack two weeks ago are incomplete. Friends may call at the Bergin funeral home this afternoon and tomorrow afternoon and evening.
 Judge Gaffney made the follow ing comment today concerning At- torney Bauby:
 Tn the passing of MT. Bauby the Waterbury Bar has lost one of its most interesting and popular mem bers.
 "He enjoyed a good law practice and had host of friends. While busily engaged at an attorney at law, he yet found time to look after the family interests at Bauby's Corner where he was for many years a familiar figure. He had a sympa- thetic understanding of the other fellows troubles ard gave gener- ously of his time and talents to many an unfortunate and often without compensation.
 Possessed of a good sense of humor and an excellent memory for facts and figures in the sport ing world he rarely missed an op- portunity to enjoy a good athletic contest of any kind, often travelling some distance to accomplish this desire.
 The names of Bauby and Herr (Dr. Edward A. Herr) made up a pair of the most formidable foot bail end in the Connecticut Schol- astic League in the late nineties, When Waterbury High School, coached by Attorney Harold R. Du- rant, captured, for the first time, the coveted Yale Cup after a series of games in which the team re- mained undefeated and unscored upon but once it provided an impe- tus for the later successes of the teams of 190 0and 1901.
 "In civic affairs, MT. Bauby was always among the first to offer his services and it is regrettable that this pioneer Italian family is dis appearing from the community life of Waterbury"
