Married. Maria Virginia Zimbalist, 22, daughter of Violinist Efrem Zimbalist and of onetime Opera Singer Alma Gluck; to Newport & Manhattan Socialite Ogden Goelet, 30; in Manhattan.

Married. Francis Warren Pershing, 28, son of General John Joseph Pershing. Commander-in-chief of the A.E.F. during the World War; and Muriel Bache Richards, 23, oldest granddaughter of Philanthropist Jules Semon Bache; in Manhattan. Most remarkable guest at the wedding ceremony: John Joseph Pershing. Two months ago the No. 1 U. S. War hero took to his bed suffering from heart disease and a kidney ailment, on one occasion sank so low his physicians announced he would not live the night. Sufficiently recovered was the doughty 77-year-old last week to journey to New York, pose for photographers, refuse a wheel chair to attend his only surviving offspring's marriage.*

Sued for divorce. John Hope Doeg, 29, kin of the famed tennis-playing Bundys and onetime (1930) national tennis singles champion; by Dorothea Scudder Doeg; in Trenton. N. J. Grounds: cruelty.

Divorced. Erskine Caldwell, novelist and short story writer (Tobacco Road, Kneel to the Rising Sun); by Helen Lannigan Caldwell; in Augusta, Me. Grounds: cruel and abusive treatment.

Died, Cora T. Hebner, 55, famed polyandrist (five husbands), wife of Polygamist Will Hebner (19 wives); by her own hand (poison); in a Pocahontas, Ark., jail where she was being held for the murder of a man (presumably Will Hebner) whose skeleton neighbors discovered in her cellar (TIME, April 18). She left a note saying: "I did not kill Will Hebner. He brought me the poison with which I killed myself. . . . I'll rob you of any further fun and cheat the natives out of a Roman holiday."

Died. George Grey Barnard, 74, U. S. sculptor; of a heart attack; in Manhattan. George Barnard learned taxidermy and engraving before he studied sculpture. In Paris, where he all but starved, his critics compared him to Michelangelo. Serene, dynamic and a prodigious worker, stocky Sculptor Barnard admired the great Gothic and Renaissance stone-carvers, amassed the finest collection of Gothic sculpture in the U. S. Stormiest of his stormy projects was his lank, saddened figure of Lincoln, which was refused a place in Westminster Abbey in 1917, relegated to Manchester, England. For the last 20 years he had labored on his greatest dream--a 100-ft. "Rainbow Arch" sculptured with Dantesque choirs of marble figures symbolizing the power of Peace.

*General Pershing's wife and three daughters were burned to death in the fire at San Francisco's Presidio in 1915.
