Monday, Oct. 10, 1949

Born. To Lieut. Felix Anthony ("Doc") Blanchard, 24, hefty "Mr. Inside" of West Point's great wartime football teams, now a jet-plane pilot, and Josephine ("Jody") King Blanchard, 22, San Antonio socialite: their first child, a son; in Sumter, S.C. Name: Felix Anthony 3rd. Weight: 7 Ibs. 3 oz.

Born. To Olivia de Havilland, 33, cinemactress, 1946 Oscar winner (To Each His Own) and Marcus Aurelius Goodrich, 51, novelist (Delilah) and Hollywood writer: their first child, a son; in Los Angeles. Name: Benjamin Briggs. Weight: 8 Ibs.

Married. George Henry Hubert Las-celles, 7th Earl of Harewood, 26; and Marion Stein, 22, Austrian-born pianist; in London (see FOREIGN NEWS).

Married. James Allan Mollison, 44, playboyish British airman, first man to fly the North Atlantic solo from east to west (1932); and Mary Kamphuis, 33, tall blonde director of his cocoa-butter firm; he for the third time (his first wife, Aviatrix Amy Johnson Mollison, was killed in a plane crash in 1941, three years after their divorce), she for the second; in Maidenhead, England.

Divorced. Jimmy Dorsey, 45, sweet-and-swing saxophone-playing bandleader; by Jane Porter Dorsey, 39, (her complaint: "If anyone brought records by some other musician into the house, [Jimmy] would smash them"); after 21 years of marriage; in Los Angeles.

Died. Buddy Clark (Samuel Goldberg), 38, baritone crooner who progressed from second-string popularity in the '305 to recent high ranking among radio groaners; in the crash of a private airplane; in Los Angeles.

Died. James Francis Thaddeus ("Jefty") O'Connor, 63, onetime U.S. Comptroller of the Currency (1933-38); of a heart ailment; in Los Angeles. A loyal pre-convention (1932) Roosevelt supporter, O'Connor was eventually rewarded with a federal judgeship after his defeat in the California gubernatorial primary.

Died. Oswald Garrison Villard, 77, crusading editor (the New York Evening Post, 1897-1918; the Nation, 1918-32); in Manhattan. Heir to the diehard liberalism of his grandfather, Abolitionist William Lloyd Garrison, and to the fortune of his father, Henry Villard (one of the builders of the Northern Pacific Railroad), Editor Villard spent a lifetime plumping for such causes as civil liberties and pacifism, finally came to the conclusion that most of his heroes (notably Wilson, Charles Evans Hughes, Al Smith and F.D.R.) had feet of clay.
