Yes., that did indeed happen...Lucy couldn't hang with Joan because of her constant drinking on and off the set....which caused many re-shoots...Lucy was a professional and didn't feel that Joan was performing well and let her know about it....Crazy Lucy, and we do love her, would've wiped the floor with Joan...you know those redheds, they've got that ol' Irish spunk in them and can usually come out the winner in any fight....plus at that point, Lucy had more clout in the industry....

Found this on Wikipedia:

The episode, Lucy and the Lost Star, caused much celebrity fodder as title star Lucille Ball had a very public feud with Joan during taping. According to Lucy, Joan was often drunk on the set and could not memorize her lines (1, 2). Ball was said to have requested several times to replace Crawford with Gloria Swanson, who was supposed to have filled the role originally but bowed out due to health reasons. When asked during an interview how Joan had liked working with Ball, Crawford's response was, "And they call me a *****!"
