Married. Jill St. John, 27, perennial starlet (The Oscar); and Jack Jones, 29, television and nightclub crooner; she for the third time (her last: Woolworth Heir Lance Reventlow), he for the second; in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Married. Mark W. Clark, 71, retired four-star general who orchestrated the Italian campaigns in World War II, later signed the Korean armistice as commander of U.N. forces, from 1954 to 1965 was president of South Carolina's The Citadel military college; and Mary Millard Applegate, 51, longtime family friend; both for the second time (his wife and her husband died last year); in Charleston, S.C.

Died. Pu Yi, 61, last Emperor of China and from 1932 to 1945 Japan's puppet ruler of Manchuria; of cancer; in Peking. Heir to the 300-year-old Ch'ing dynasty, the "Son of Heaven" was enthroned as Emperor in 1908 at the age of two, and cried throughout the ceremony. Four years later, his overthrow by Sun Yat-sen marked the fall of the world's oldest empire. His life from then on was marked by three decades of royal fantasy, first as a virtual prisoner of the republican government in Peking's Forbidden City, later as "Emperor" of Manchuria and frail front for the Japanese occupation. Captured by the Russians in 1945, he was eventually handed over to the Chinese Communists who allowed him to spend his last years back among the gardens and libraries in Peking.

Died. Frank Perkins, 79, founder of the world's largest producer of diesel engines; after a long illness; in Peterborough, England. Inventor in 1932 of a fuel-injection device that gave higher diesel horsepower with much less weight, Perkins built his small shop into the giant of its field, with annual sales of $980 million when he retired 30 years later.

Died. Friedrich Gogarten, 80, German theologian; of a heart attack; in Goettingen, Germany. An influential but little-known force in the shifting tide of modern Protestantism, Gogarten first joined Karl Earth in the 1920s in a revolt against liberal Christianity, postulating a neo-orthodoxy that stressed the Biblical imperatives of God's word to man. He retreated into seclusion when the Nazis took and twisted to their own ends his idea of a necessary link between theology and a dynamic' social order. After the war, Gogarten backed Rudolf Bultmann's demythologization of the Bible, and later argued, as had Dietrich Bonhoeffer, that secularization is a legitimate consequence of Christianity--that the church must march with history, accepting the knowledge science thrusts upon man.

Died. Count Giuseppe Dalla Torre, 82, longtime editor (1920-60) of the Vatican newspaper L'Osservatore Romano; of pneumonia; in Vatican City. As the semiofficial voice of four Popes, Dalla Torre austerely spelled out the church's stand on the issues of the day, only rarely, but then effectively, airing his own views in the paper's columns. His scathing editorials denouncing Fascism so enraged Mussolini that he ordered the paper banned from Rome, but Dalla Torre continued to smuggle out copies from his Vatican sanctuary, remaining one of the few Italian voices resisting the Axis.

Died. Shigeru Yoshida, 89, Premier of Japan in the rebuilding years from 1946 to 1954; of complications following a gall-bladder infection; in Oiso, Japan. "Criticism of Americans is a right accorded even to Americans," Yoshida once wrote. "But in the enumeration of their faults we cannot include their occupation of Japan." Stubby, acerbic and continually puffing cigars, he firmly steered his nation from the rubble of war through the U.S. occupation toward its emergence as a modern industrial democratic state. All along the way, he fended off attacks from both the Communist left and jingoist right, and by his retirement could point to prosperity, peace and friendship with the Western world.
