Born. To Dionne Warwick, 25, singer with honey deep down in her Soul (Alfie; Promises, Promises); and Bill Elliott, 31, aspiring movie actor (Uptight, On a Clear Day): their first child, a boy; in Newark.

Married. Jim Ryun, 21, world's fastest miler (record: 3 min. 51.1 sec.), now winding up his college career at the University of Kansas; and Anne Snider, 21, Kansas State cheerleader whose introduction to Jim came when he refused her autograph request after setting a mile world record in 1966; in Bay Village, Ohio.

Married. Dawn Pepita Langley Hall, 31, British authoress who was Author Gordon Langley Hall (Jacqueline Kennedy: A Biography) until a transsexual operation in Baltimore last October; and John Paul Simmons, 22, her Negro steward; both for the first time; in a small Baptist ceremony at the bride's home in Charleston, S.C. Her mother (by adoption), Actress Dame Margaret Rutherford, said that she was pleased with the marriage.

Married. Audrey Hepburn, 39, filmdom's worldly waif (My Fair Lady, Two for the Road); and Dr. Andrea Mario Dotti, 30, handsome Italian psychiatrist whom she met on a Roman holiday last July; she for the second time (her 14-year marriage to Actor Mel Ferrer ended in divorce two months ago), he for the first; in a quiet civil ceremony held near her home in Merges, Switzerland.

Divorced. By Theodore C. Sorensen, 40, former presidential speechwriter and Kennedy Clan confidant, now a top partner (along with ex-U.N. Ambassador Arthur Goldberg) in a prestigious Manhattan Jaw firm; Sara Elbery Sorensen, 35, petite Cambridge, Mass., schoolteacher; on the uncontested grounds of cruelty and abandonment; after nearly five years of marriage, no children; in Manhattan.

Died. Irene Castle, 75, ballroom dancer who was the belle of two continents before World War I; of heart disease; in Eureka Springs, Ark. Daughter of a New York physician, Irene married an impoverished English actor, and almost overnight the dance team of Vernon and Irene Castle became the toast of Paris. By 1912, their dancing and their songs--the Castle Walk and the Maxixe --were sentimental favorites in the U.S. and Europe. In 1916 Vernon joined Canada's Royal Flying Corps and was killed two years later in a training accident. Irene later remarried three more times but never again did she choose to take another dance partner or another professional step.

Died. Mrs. Louis Van Alen Bruguiere, 92, arbiter elegantiarum of Newport society and symbol of the colony's turn-of-the-century splendor; of pneumonia; at Wakehurst, her baronial estate in the Rhode Island resort. Her first husband, James Van Alen, was a fifth-generation descendant of John Jacob Astor, and her own family ties provided millions more from the Vanderbilt fortune to make her one of the nation's richest women. Yet wealth was only part of her cachet. A few intimates always called her "Daisy"; others, in later years, referred to her as the "purple people eater" for her blue-tinted hair and infinite capacity for punctilio; dinner was black tie, women never wore slacks, even when sailing. Every newcomer with proper credentials was summoned for tea, but acceptance hinged on a second invitation. Deaths, taxes, and a different sort of society brought an end to many of the old estates. But Mrs. Bruguiere still kept a year-round retinue of 30 servants, held gala dinners for 50 to 75 guests, and turned out to watch the lawn-tennis matches from her chauffeured Rolls-Royce.
