Friday, Mar. 19, 1965
Born. To Letitia ("Tish") Baldrige, 37, Jackie Kennedy's former social secretary, now a Chicago public relations girl; and Robert Hollensteiner, 33, real estate operator: their first child, a daughter; in Chicago.
Married. Kathleen Brown, 19, youngest of California Governor Pat Brown's four children; and George Rice III, 20, fellow student at Stanford University; in a civil ceremony in Carson City, Nev., after eloping from the ski lodge near Squaw Valley where they were weekending with her parents. Said the Governor: "It was a complete surprise. But I wish them all the happiness in the world."
Divorced. By Eleanor Parker, 42, still stunning Hollywood blonde, brunette or redhead, most recently the marriage-bent (blonde) baroness outmaneuvered by Julie Andrews in The Sound of Music: Paul Clemens, 53, Hollywood portrait painter (up to $10,000 per capita); on grounds of extreme mental cruelty; after ten years of marriage, one child; in Santa Monica, Calif.
Died. Henry H. Ford, 52, U.S. Consul General in Frankfurt, Germany, no kin to the Detroit Fords but nonetheless a well-known name to Germans as the genial, efficient boss of the U.S.'s biggest consulate anywhere (500 employees), contributing strongly to rising commercial and cultural relations; of a fractured skull sustained in a car accident near Limburg, Germany.
Died. Henry Clay Greenberg, 68, New York state supreme court judge who last year banned John Goldfarb, Please Come Home, Twentieth Century Fox's spoof on Notre Dame's football team, agreeing with the university that the film would cause "irreparable injury" to its prestige and good will, a ruling later reversed and now before the state court of appeals; of a heart attack; in Manhattan.
Died. Margaret Dumont, 75, stately foil for Marx Brothers shenanigans in the 1930s and early '40s, who in seven films (Animal Crackers, A Day at the Races) played the society dowager to Groucho's knave with hardly a quiver of her lorgnette, while he pranced, pinched and leered; of a heart attack; in Los Angeles.
Died. Clemente Cardinal Micara, 85, vicar general since 1951 and unofficial bishop of Rome (the title belongs to the Pope), known to fellow members of the Vatican Curia as the "Grand Elector" for his key role in lining up conservatives behind his friend and fellow liberal Giovanni Cardinal Montini in the 1963 papal elections; after a long illness; in Rome.
