Married. Licia Albanese, 31, plump, handsome Metropolitan Opera soprano; and Joseph A. Gimma, 37, Wall Street stock broker, also from her native Bari, Italy (although they met in Manhattan in 1940); both for the first time; in Manhasset, L.I. The bride confessed that she was heeding the marriage-v.-career advice of an ex-opera star friend: "Our art is ... only temporary. All of a sudden one day it will be gone, and then you'll be sorry you didn't marry."

Married. Niles Trammell, 50, shrewd, soft-spoken president of the National Broadcasting Co.; and Cleo Allen Black, 41; both for the second time; in Queenstown, Md., one week after his Reno divorce from Elizabeth Ruth Huff Trammell, 42 (alimony: $1,000 a month).

Marriage Annulled. Fanny Taylor Baldwin Foote, 20, daughter of suave. Republican Congressman Joseph Clark Baldwin III from Manhattan's "silk stocking district"; and Wallace Turner Foote. 26, Manhattan socialite. Representative Baldwin, appearing for his daughter, testified that his son-in-law had never consummated the two-year-old marriage.

Reported Dead. Admiral Nicholas Horthy, 77, aristocratic, choleric ex-Regent of Hungary whose catch-as-catch-can foreign policy (collaboration with Hitler until invading Russian troops suggested a quick switch to the Allies) was always one bad guess behind; of a heart attack (according to the Paris radio): probably in Weilheim Castle near Munich, Germany, where he has been under Nazi "protection."

Died. Princess Elizabeth Bibesco,* 48, acid-penned, socialite British author (Portrait of Caroline), daughter of the first Earl of Oxford and Asquith (Herbert H. Asquith, Prime Minister 1908-1916), wife of Prince Antoine Bibesco, onetime Rumanian Minister to the U.S. (1920-1926), who nearly got called home when she "intervened" in U.S. politics by urging the 1924 election of Presidential Nominee John W. Davis; in Bucharest, Rumania, while listening to a news broadcast.

Died. Leon Fraser, 55, world financial expert who began a varied career as a poor, adopted farm boy at North Granville, N.Y., ended up as president of the billion-dollar First National Bank of New York, after being a reporter, teacher, soldier, bureaucrat, lawyer, diplomat; by his own hand (gunshot); on the lawn of the farm-summer estate where he grew up. He left notes blaming his melancholia: "Except for this mental depression, I have everything to live for. . . . Sorry to be a nuisance this way."

Not to be confused with her authoress cousin, Princess Marthe Bibesco (Worlds Apart).
