Married. Roberto Sanchez Vilella, 54, Governor of Puerto Rico; and Jeannette Ramos Buonomo, 36, twice-divorced daughter of a former Puerto Rican House Speaker and Sanchez' onetime legislative assistant; in a civil ceremony just two days after he was divorced by Conchita Dapona de Sanchez, 52, his wife of 31 years; in Humacao, P.R. Last March after his liaison with Jeannette became public knowledge, Sanchez announced that he would seek freedom to marry her, at the same time said he would not run for re-election when his term expires next year.

Died. Clifton C. Williams Jr., 35, U.S. astronaut in training for the Apollo moon program; when his T-38 jet trainer crashed, possibly because of an oxygen failure; near Miccosukee, Fla., thus bringing to eight the number of astronaut fatalities since the program began in 1959, four in T-38 crashes.

Died. Woody Guthrie, 55, balladeer and U.S. folk music's lead guitar for two decades; after a 13-year illness (Huntington's chorea, a rare disease of the nervous system); in Manhattan. "This train is bound for glory," sang Woody, and so was his musical cast--Dust bowl farmers seeking Pastures of Plenty, the spunky Union Maid who defied "goons and ginks and company finks," fast-living Jackhammer John, everyone traveling a hard road, but one that provided hope, blooming with all the gladness of his folk anthem, This Land Is Your Land. The gaunt Depression minstrel, with dried-grass hair and a reedy voice, spun off the Oklahoma plains like a cloud of the "dusty old dust" in his ballads to roam the nation singing in transient camps and saloons. His best stanzas staked the folk boom of the '60s, but by then their author was a wasted invalid, "drifting along" his last road in a hospital.

Died. Eddy Gilmore, 60, Associated Press foreign correspondent for 32 years, eleven of them (1942-53) in Moscow; of a heart attack; in East Grinstead, England. Said Gilmore of his Russian labors: "I wrote for the smallest audience in the world, that one censor whose blue pencil ripped my copy--and my heart."

Died. Ludwig Donath, 67, Viennese-born character actor; of leukemia; in Manhattan. A well-known supporting actor in Austria and Germany in the 1930s, Donath was active in the anti-Nazi underground before fleeing to Hollywood in 1940. His thick accent made him a natural cinema Nazi, including der Fuehrer himself in 1943's The Strange Death of Adolf Hitler, but his talent soon found other roles--most notably Al Jolson's cantor-father in The

Jolson Story and a kindly, studious Viennese psychiatrist in Broadway's A Far Country.

Died. Sir Malcolm Sargent, 72, Britain's most popular orchestra conductor; of cancer; in London. Known equally as a London bon vivant and baton master, Sargent was lionized in British music circles for four decades. Critics respected the 19th century grandeur that characterized all his work and cheered especially the fioriture he summoned in such choral classics as Handel's Messiah. To audiences, he was "Flash Harry," the impeccably groomed courtier of the orchestra stage, raconteur, and international socialite. His own favorite appearances were at cavernous Royal Albert Hall's immensely popular "prom" annuals, where for 20 summers he introduced young Britons to the exciting pleasures of great music.

Died. Vance ("Pinto") Colvig, 75, the voice of Goofy, Pluto and a host of other Disney cartoon characters; of pneumonia; in Woodland Hills, Calif.

Died. Albertina Rasch, 76, ballerina, choreographer and wife of Composer Dmitri Tiomkin; after a long illness; in Woodland Hills, Calif. Trained in Vienna's Imperial Theater, a performer in New York at 16, Albertina Rasch determined to awaken U.S. interest in ballet by taking the dance into vaudeville's thriving circuits, first as a soloist, later as head of her own troupe. The acclaim she found there led her into cho- reography--for Ziegfeld's Show Girl, Rio Rita, and to the lavish productions of Hollywood, where in 1938 she directed 800 dancers during a single week for three pictures: Marie Antoinette, The Great Waltz and Sweethearts.

Died. Walter Chandler, 79, Democratic Congressman from Tennessee from 1935 to 1940, and attorney for a group of Memphis plaintiffs in the U.S. Supreme Court's one-man, one-vote decision; of a heart attack; in Memphis. In 1962's Baker v. Carr appeal, Chandler argued that voters of Shelby County, most populous in Tennessee, were entitled to a state-legislature delegation reflecting its size; the court agreed, in a ruling that has forced reapportionment in dozens of states.

Died. Admiral Claude C. Bloch, 89, one of the three ranking officers at Pearl Harbor during the Japanese attack; after a long illness; in Washington. At the time, Bloch was C.O. of the Hawaiian naval district, and such was his performance before the disaster that a board of inquiry specifically cleared him of responsibility, while charging the other two commanders, Admiral Husband Kimmel and General Walter Short, with "dereliction of duty."
