Name: George Jr. Weight: 8 Ibs. 10 oz.

Married. Eric Ambler, 49, London-born movie scenarist (The Cruel Sea), topnotch writer of international-intrigue thrillers (A Coffin for Dimitrios, Cause for Alarm); and Joan Harrison, about 45, blonde, brainy TV producer (Alfred Hitchcock Presents); he for the second time, she for the first; in San Francisco.

Died. William Frank Buckley, 77, far-right-wing capitalist, onetime (1908-n) lawyer for Mexican oil firms, who struck it rich with his own fields, bitterly anti-progressive-education theorist, who last year (TIME, March 4, 1957) founded a school on his Sharon, Conn, estate, to produce an intellectual elite (mostly his own grandchildren) who would be safeguarded from "the blight of liberalism and Communism"; in Manhattan.

Died. Pope Pius XII, 82; in Castel Gandolfo, Italy (see RELIGION).

Died. Maurice de Vlaminck, 82, earthy celebrator in paint of storm-clouded landscapes, a leader (with Henri Matisse, Georges Rouault) of the flamboyant Fauves (wild beasts) who shocked Paris art circles near the century's turn; at his farmhouse near Paris. The son of musician parents, husky Maurice worked intermittently as a factory hand, bicycle racer and gypsy fiddler, turned intently to painting in his 205 after his first awed exposure to the explosive colors of Van Gogh and a chance meeting with Fauve-to-be Andre Derain. Vlaminck became famous overnight after shrewd Dealer Ambroise Vollard bought a collection of his dashingly hued, bold-lined canvases in 1906. He dispiritedly followed other Fauves into cubism, but soon drifted away from Montmartre coteries. After World War I he retired to the country, became bitterly contemptuous of modern art ("Abstract paintings give me a toothache"), reserved his choicest scorn for his most famed contemporary: "Picasso is the gravedigger of French art."
