Divorced. By Judy Garland, 42: Sid Luft, 49, her third husband and onetime manager, whom she had sued for divorce three times previously, always recanting; on uncontested grounds of cruelty; after 13 years of marriage, two children; in Santa Monica, Calif.

Died. Celia Guevara, 58, mother of Che, Fidel Castro's Argentine-born jack-of-all-subversion, a screeching Communist fanatic who raised her nino on Marxist dogma but never had the influence she wanted until her son's rise to power in Cuba, after which she traveled the hemisphere as a Communist Front organizer clad in leather jacket and Basque beret, and forever sporting a pistol--even when she sat down to dinner; of cancer; in Buenos Aires.

Died. Horatius Albarda, 61, president of Royal Dutch Airlines, fourth among international carriers, an Amsterdam lawyer who took over the floundering, top-heavy company in 1963, cut losses from $21 million to $4,000,000 last year by pruning away 4,000 excess employees, restoring Far East service, eliminating old pistons and going for jets; of injuries sustained when the twin-engine Beechcraft in which he was a passenger crashed during a storm near St. Moritz, Switzerland, also killing his wife and the two pilots.

Died. Maria Dabrowska, 75, Poland's grande dame of letters and critic of Communist censorship, who last year joined 33 prominent intellectuals in a forlorn bid for greater freedom, and persisted after others gave up, best known for her sensitive four-volume saga (Nights and Days, 1934) of the rural gentry, and later studies of the landless peasantry; of heart and kidney ailments; near Warsaw, Poland.

Died. Brigadier General John Thomas Taylor, 79, a founder in 1919 of the still powerful American Legion (some 3,000,000 members); and its top lobbyist until his retirement in 1950, an imposing figure in grey spats and walking stick, who despite repeated presidential vetoes, was instrumental in securing an estimated $13 billion in benefits for veterans prior to World War II; of a heart attack; in Washington.

Died. Sir Geoffrey de Havilland, 82, pioneer British aircraft designer, who built his first plane in 1908 with $5,000 lent by his grandfather, formed his own company in 1920 and went on to design World War II's fighting Mosquito and later the Vampire, first jet fighter in the free world to exceed 500 m.p.h., from which he conceived the four-jet Comet airliner, in a brilliant but crash-plagued attempt to capture the passenger market from U.S. planemakers; of a heart attack; in Watford, England.
