 THEATER RALLY OF MERCHANTS

Tumultuous applause rang throughout the capacity . filled State theater this morning as nine Waterbury combat veterans, resplendent with decorations, approached the stage during the mass rally sponsored by the Retail Division of the War Finance Committee.
 Approximately 5000 local mer- chants their sales representatives, and the public attended the spirited rally featuring a few short films, brief speeches by local bond chair, men, and musical numbers, which was organized to boost the Seventh War Loan Drive here.
 A highlight of the event was a special transcription of the address to Congress on December g. 1941, of the late President Franklin D.. Roosevelt, in which he announced the nation was at war.
 James E. Moran, chairman of the Seventh War Loan Drive. announced that GA per cent of Waterbury's quota of S6,915 ,0OO had been reached. Emphasizing that $2,5o0,000 worth of series E bonds must be sold before June 30, the closing day of the drive, MT. Moran urged local re- tailers and their staffs, to contact as many individuals as possible dur ing the next 12 days. Lauding the excellent attendance of the retail group at the rally MT. Moran said: This meeting is an indication that the merchants of the city are behind this drive 100 per cent, and are III great part contributing toward the progress of the campaign here" He urged that sales people make nst of prospective buyers and work un- cessantly until the goal had been reached.
 Every sales representative in To- cal stores has been asked to sell $500 worth of series E. bonds.
 James E. Cassidy, chairman of the speakers bureau, stressed the soundness of war bonds as an in- vestment, and urged that civilians learn do without" as our serv- icemen have done, in order to buy bonds.

Rossi Pays For Murder

Wethersfeld, Conn.,, June 19 - U.PD - Convicted of the robbery murder of Mrs. Hedwig Wegner, 60, at Plainville in September, 1943, Nicholas A. Rossi, 32, paid with his life in the electric chair at State prison last night.
 His half-b brother, Robert, 27, is serving life sentence at the same institution as his accomplice.
 The Negro brothers, employed by Mrs. Wegner, and who posed as man and wife, were accused of beating her to death and hiding her body in the garage of her home. They fled to Missouri in the aged woman's s car, were apprehended there and re- turned to Connecticut for trial. The masquerade of Robert as woman was discovered by Missouri author ities who noticed his wig was not on straight.
 Robert at first was conviced of robbery and sentenced to five years in prison. The state appealed, and at his second trial he was convicted of second degree murder and im- prisoned for life. The pardons board refused clemency to Nicholas.
 The Rossis were born in Montreal l Canada.

Bridges to Be Made Voter
By BANNING E. WHITTINGTON

Washington, June 19-(UP)- West Coast labor leader Harry Bridges intends to become a citizen of the U. S. following yesterdays supreme court cancellation of an order for his deportation as an alien Communist.
 The court adjourned until Octo- Der after historic day in which it settled two far-reaching legal con- troversies-the Bridges case and the governments antitrust suit against the Associated Press. The court ruled that AP bylaws for admis- sion of new members were in viola tion of antitrust laws.
 Bridges, head of the CIO Long, shoremen's and Warehousemen's union. declared in San Francisco after the high court ruling: T welcome the decision because American citizenship is a priceless possession"
 Bridges, now a legally-admitted ahen following the courts decision, said he would apply for citizenship papers immediately. He came here from Australia in 1920, obtaining first citizenship papers in 1889 but never taking the next step of filing an actual citizenship application.
 The courts decision in the Bridges case left unchallenged at- torney General Francis Riddles contention in the case that the Communist party advocates "vio. lent" overthrow of the government

23 AfterHub Job of Mayor
Bx JOHN MADIGAN

Boston, June 19 - CU.P) - A 23- cornered battle for Mayor of Boston -the biggest field in the city's his- tory - was in prospect today as the filing deadline arrived.
 Episcopal Bishop Henry Knox Sherrill jokingly remarked the other day that he was one of the few men in Boston who was not seeking the s20,000-a-ayear job.
 The scramble was on minutes after the returns came in from the election last November that moved youthful Mayor Maurice J. Tobin up the street from City Hall to the governorship on Beacon Hill.
 From all sides came candidates in one of the nations unique munich pal elections an election that -rN& for neither nominations nor primaries. Anyone with a petition bearing 5000 certified names gets his name on the ballot.
 Veteran campaigners and young lawyers, bookkeepers and clerks are In the group seeking the office tenn porarily held by former City Coun- ci!or John E. Kerrigan
 No Boston mayoralty campaign would be complete without James M. Curley. And he's in there, as usual. A three-term mayor who later became Massachusetts gover- nor and who is now U. s. repre- sentative. Curley has indicated that, if elected, he will retain his seat in congress in addition to serving as mayor.

Buckner, 58, Laid to Rest With Buddies
BY E. c. VALENS

Okinawa, June 19-UP)-Lt. Gen. Simon Bolivar Buckner, Jr., was buried with full military honors to- day only 20 miles from where the troops he commanded fought to final victory
 Buckner, killed yesterday by a Japanese shell while he was up front, was laid to rest in the 7th in- fantry division cemetery.
 At g a. m. they lowered his body into the bround, alongside the other men who have died in this bloody campaign. A bugler sounded taps and the melancholy notes floated across nearby Hagushi beach, where Buckner led his men ashore on Eas- ter Sunday.
 Today those men had victory at their fingertips. But Buckner, whose great wish was to walk through the ashes of Tokyo" didn't live to see it. Their new commander was Maj. Gen. Roy s. Geiger of the Marines, the man Buckner wanted to take over if anything happened to him.
 The General went to the front yesterday to watch the final stages of the battle he had predicted would be over in anoher four days. He was at a forward observation post of the Eighth Marine regiment. A Marine combat photographer Staff Sgt. Martin Conn, West Long Branch, N. J.-had just taken mo- tion pictures of the general and his party. It had been a quiet morning hardly a Japanese shot fired Buckner, big and silver-haired, sat on rock chatting.
 Then it happened. A Japanese shell came screaming in, and then an- other. The first bounced off rock splattering m d CT ous splinters through the air One of those-a big one-hit Buckner in the chest. That was at 1:15 p. m.
 Someone fetched It. Gg) Fred c Wallace, Navy medical officer from Oakland, Mass.
 Wallace quickly injected blood plasma into the dying general. He WOl hCu lIJllUiCd4ly. out " was eO> late. At 1:25 ,. m.-10 minutes after he had been hit-Buckner was pro- nounced dead.
 Thus, just a month before hi! 59th birthday, Buckner became tht first American Army commander tt die in action. He was the secont three-star general killed in action It. Gen. Leslie J. McNair was killed on the Normandy front.

 Buckner was the son of genera in the Confederate Army. His fathe also was editor of the Louisvill Courier and governor of Kentuck. from 1887 to 1891. In the Buckne family they admired Simon Bolivar the George Washington of Soul America, hence the name. Young Buckner followed tn southern military tradition an (HOpfinIIad ns, pooo Cl
